America’s Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders has been fascinating fans by showcasing the grueling journey to becoming a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader. One scene particularly divided viewers on how the ladies support one another through their actions, beyond just their words.
Within the America’s Sweethearts episode, Victoria Kalina and her mom, Tina Kalina, hosted a well-decorated birthday get-together at their Dallas home. Nevertheless, other members of the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders (DCC) didn’t show up for the party, leaving her to have fun along with her mother alone and making viewers curious in the event that they intentionally ignored the invite.
“We had an appearance that morning and that’s when [Netflix] had asked, ‘Hey, can we come film? Can we come have fun with you?’ And I used to be like, ‘Yeah,’” Victoria, 24, recalled in the course of the Monday, July 8, episode of the Be There in Five podcast. “I word-of-mouth and vocalized, ‘Hey, Netflix is coming. There’s gonna be cake [and] the more the merrier.’ But, I suppose it just didn’t trickle along.”
@bethereinfive Replying to @fgbugge Hi! I’m an audio-only podcast mostly, clips are used for promo. But since people need to see it, we are going to get it up this week @Victoria Kalina
After being asked if the incident bothered her, Victoria responded, “No, because all the pieces that I said at all times felt prefer it got just brushed aside.” She said her DCC teams often did “not fully acknowledge” what she said, and identified that the team commonly got here together to plan and have fun other cheerleaders’ birthdays.
The podcast host offered some reassurance, saying, “And also you deserve that very same hype from true friends.”
Nevertheless, other DCC members are actually speaking out, offering a unique perspective on the birthday incident.
Via a TikTok comment on a clip of the podcast episode, cheerleader Jessica Bowman wrote, “Would have loved to have been there to have fun Victoria had I been given the chance. Praying she comes to comprehend how much the team really did support her❤️.”
Her former DCC teammates McKenzie Sherman, Kelcey Wetterberg, and Yevgeniya ‘Zhenya’ Kolpakova all concurred with Jessica in their very own TikTok messages. In accordance with them, Kalina never invited them to her birthday festivities.
“We take bdays very seriously around here & would have been there if we had known! We decorated her locker per Dcc tradition, but we wish we might have been given the chance to be at her party,” Wetterberg wrote.
Sherman commented, “We might have absolutely rallied round her.” Kolpakova added, “It breaks my heart that it has come to this. I hope that we support you, love you, and would never have just not shown as much as your birthday.”
