Amy Caroline

Total: 3

* [Cameo shoot] “The one thing that I’m a little bit concerned about is how Kelli and Judy will think I will look in the uniform.“
* [Before office] “I have not been called into the office before, so I’m nervous for my first time. Theoretically, they could cut me tonight without any warning.“
* [After cut, teary] “I’m a little bit surprised that I was cut tonight. I’ve been working really hard on my dancing and as well as my kicks and just trying to be the best Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader that I can be. But I understand that it is time for them to make decisions, and that I’m just not meant for the team this year. This has been a very long process. It’s just hard ‘cause I really felt like I was improving, but just not quite at the speed that they need me to be.“

### **Season 7**

**(7.5)**

* “You didn’t draw my attention.“ – Kitty Carter
* [Cameo shoot] “Loosen up, Amy… Her expressions are very stiff. She needs to lighten up.“ – Kelli
* [Cameo shoot] “I did, from the back, notice her being bottom heavy, and the way our shorts sit on the hips, that doesn’t help her.“ – Kelli
* “I wish Amy would smile instead of doing this.“ – Judy/“You see it? Close your mouth. It’s like a dentist saying, “show me your molars“.” – Kelli
* “Smile more instead of showing us your… you and Kelsey both are showing us your molars.“– Kelli
* “Amy overexaggerates with her mouth, and I find it distracting and just not pleasant to watch.“ – Kelli
* “I don’t love Amy either. I put performance quality, and then I put a frown thing. And she’s not naturally… and then I look at Emily, that I feel like can get there. And to me, it’s kind of what you’re starting with. I don’t love [Amy’s] body, I don’t love her face. She’s not…“– Shelly Roper-McCaslin/ “Rigid?“/“And I hate, I feel so bad because it’s picking apart these altogether wonderful girls.“ – Shelly/“She’s sweet.“ – Judy

## **Office Visits**

### **Season 7**

**(7.5)**

* [End of episode, second of two] Kelli tells her that she’s been a strong performer, very clean with their choreography. [*Amy is shown responding with “yes ma’am” to almost everything they say throughout the entire visit*] What’s starting to reveal itself is that she’s not friendly with the camera. She photographs a little bottom heavy, and on camera she appears a little robotic or rigid, and not just natural, comfortable, or loose. And that’s a big part of the job. Amy says she does get more nervous in front of the camera, and she feels like through this experience, she’s become more comfortable. Kelli tells her there’s kind of a tension that shows up in her still shots. Amy asks for their suggestions on what to work on for this. Kelli responds more performance and being smoother in her conversation. But they’re not asking for her to work on it in training camp, because tonight’s going to be her last night. What she would need to be working on would be for next year. She’s sorry to disappoint her, and Amy says they’re going to have a fabulous year and appreciates the opportunity. [*Amy leaves*] Kelli says that was weird, and Judy comments on her robotic answers, and Kelli agrees.
