Forever Summer: Hamptons Stars Reveal How They Were Cast On The Docu-Soap

We all know what it's like to work a job that we don't really like, let alone taking an internship or entry-level position that doesn't pay ... at all. While the grind might pay off in the end, the duration of such an experience isn't pleasant, and that was the situation that Ilan Luttway found himself in before landing a part of "Forever Summer: Hamptons."

"I was working a data analytics job unpaid, not really enjoying it and spending nine hours a day doing something that I didn't really think that I loved. I'm a computer science major at [The University of] Michigan, so I felt like it was the right thing for me to do," Luttway told us. "Basically, I had a friend from Michigan that knew someone that could get me an interview. It was one of those things where it was so out of my ballpark and not something that anyone [or I] ever thought that I would ever do, but when I thought about it, it brought me a little bit of joy and excitement and nervousness."

Taking a leap of faith, Luttway went for the opportunity, telling us that he never would've forgiven himself if he hadn't given the show a chance.
