Why Armani Latimer walked away from DCC and where her journey is headed now
Armani Latimer, a true inspiration among the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, recently concluded her five-year journey, showcased in Netflix's "America's Sweethearts." Beyond performing, she powerfully advocated for fair teammate pay and hereditary alopecia awareness, openly embracing her personal challenge and transforming her role into a vital platform.
Armani's influence grew, making her a 'first leader' and 'guiding light.'
A deeply moving moment from her "final season" was performing wig-free during the "My Cause, My Boots" game in December 2024, a brave declaration for alopecia awareness. She felt no hesitation whatsoever, stating, "Once I made the decision, I just knew I wanted to help and effect change in some type of way," believing, "And I think I did that.'
Armani's relentless efforts to secure better pay for the cheerleaders culminated in a significant victory: a remarkable 400% salary increase for the upcoming season.
Reflecting on this achievement, she expressed immense pride: "We pushed, and we got good results. I love the fact that I made change for the girls that are coming up behind me, even if I'm not getting a chance to benefit."
Looking ahead, Armani is focusing on her academic aspirations, with law school in her sights. However, she's also keeping an open mind, "holding opportunities for anything else that comes."
Since leaving the squad, she's already spoken at the National Alopecia Areata Foundation conference in June 2025.

Now, she's looking forward to more personal time, like attending concerts – a simple pleasure often missed due to demanding rehearsal schedules.
"I'm excited to go to more concerts," she admitted, "Just because a lot of the times when the concerts come to Dallas, we unfortunately have rehearsals." She also looks forward to "spending time going home and spending time with my family."

She's also been involved in promoting America's Sweethearts season 2 and assisting at the DCC's Youth Camp, displaying her lasting bond with the organization.
