Up! Close & Personal - the cleavage moment


Guys, I need help of the English native speakers as this part has been pretty much of a mystery for me for years. Now I've watched it again and it hasn't become any clearer.

So that was during Up! Close & Personal concert and the moment when Shania was talking about the cleavage. It's between You're Still The One and I'm Holdin' On To Love (To Save My Life) on the DVD. Here's what I can understand and the missing part is something beyond my understanding. Could you please help? Thank you in advance.

Shania: Now… Oh… OK. I don’t wanna be showing too much cleavage but you know the reason… the thing is that the camera…. You, guys, are all sitting down, right? And so what happens is the camera sort of look up too and then you know we see less of the cleavage. So from my point of view _______________________ the cleavage. But from your point of view… You probably really can’t see very much of it.

Some one from the Union Station: Our point of view.

Shania: Oh, you’re taller than I am so I’ll be walking over there.

Meaning ... from her view she is showing a lot of cleavage because she is looking straight down.

Thank you, Tommy. Could you help me with one more piece? It's before You Shook Me All Night Long.

 

Shania: When I was 16 years old, I went on a _________ trip with the school band – I played trumpet. And so… what I did… They knew I sang and I never sang in front of my school… I was just way… I just couldn’t deal with that pressure. But they convinced me to go and sing for another school where I didn’t know the kids. Cause I was in the school band in __________ . So I went there, got up on stage, did some song and I peed my pants.

Billet - In Canada, the term is widely used in conjunction with housing visiting performers or students from theatrical or musical tours, such as for a theatre festival or a choir festival. Students travelling for a band or choir tour may billet with members of the host band or choir.

So sort of like homestay? Like the band members from Timmins might stay in the homes of the band members from Vancouver, etc.? Interesting. I'd never knew what billet meant before, haha
