Victoria Kalina is in the concrete jungle where her dreams are made of.
After the Dallas Cowboys cheerleader quit the squad last season, the 25-year-old has landed in New York City.
In season two of Netflix’s America’s Sweethearts, Victoria and her mom Tina Kalina make the journey to New York and move her into an apartment. In episode seven, the duo explore everything the city has to offer—from busy streets and Times Square to the subway.
“It was very eye opening to know that there is life outside of DCC,” Victoria admitted during the episode. “I didn’t go off to college so this is my first time away from Dallas, away from home, away from my family.”
Victoria’s big change comes after a difficult decision to walk away from DCC when she learned she wouldn’t be given a leadership role for her fifth and final year—but she made it clear she has no regrets.
“I love it here,” Victoria, who went on to audition for the Radio City Rockettes, said during the recent episode. “I feel like I’ve found my place and I know what I’m supposed to do. I think when you know that, you don’t miss what was less than.”
