Jaimie Alexander shares hilarious stories from 'Blindspot'

Updated

Jaimie Alexander was all stripes and smiles when she visited BUILD Series to discuss her role in the Blindspot premiere of Season 3. The actress didn't fail in making everyone in the audience laugh while dishing out on her experience on set. Some of the stories she told included her 8-hour makeup routine, suffering concussions and broken noses on set and doing push-ups with none other than Arnold Schwarzenegger.

In one of the incidents she described, Alexander had to go to a hospital where she was given only Tylenol, and then she went straight back to work -- like a true hero!

The actress later shared that she once even offered to shave her head for the role on "Blindspot," which the producers denied. Judging by the way she pulls off all of those tattoos, though, something tells us that she could totally have rocked a buzzcut!

Alexander's most interesting revelation came towards the end of the show, when she revealed to Build that she is terrified of scary movies -- especially clowns, which she attributes to her mom dressing her up as a clown when she was little.

"I don't like clowns, and my mom was like, 'I used to dress you as a clown on Halloween all the time,' and I was like, 'Well, that explains it!'"

"Blindspot" airs on Fridays at 8/7 c on NBC.
