(13.12)

• [“Where are they now?” segment] She was a DCC from 2007 to 2011. It was amazing experience coming in as a legacy cheerleader. It was even more special for her and her mother, since they got to celebrate together. Her favorite training camp memory was the morning they went skydiving with the Golden Knights. It was exhilarating, and something she’ll never forget. She learned many life lessons being a DCC, but the biggest is being truly proud to be an American. She was lucky enough to go on three U.S.O. tours. She’s been married to her husband for seven years, and they have two children. They work with the United States diplomatic corps, and are currently stationed in Argentina. Something she’s learned working overseas is that the DCC are known worldwide. Technology allows her to follow the show and the Cowboys.

Office Visits[]

Season 5[]

(5.6)

• [First of four office visits, with Jordan Baum, Kaitlin Ilseng, Meagan Sharp, and Stephanie Heymann] Kelli tells them they had a hard time photographing them. She tells Kaitlin and Jordan they’ve gained weight. They had to put Meagan in three pairs of shorts yesterday. They don’t have that liberty to gain. They are all going on weight probation until they get this extra stuff off. She points to Stephanie and tells her she’s not on the squad yet, so the others have the benefit of having experience with them and trust with them. Stephanie doesn’t have that with them. They all know what they’ve got to do. She then tells them they’ve got worse conversations to have later that night with the other candidates in the office.
