Jennifer Hawkins, North Texas Krunchettes

Jennifer Hawkins, North Texas Crunch Krunchettes

Name: Jennifer Hawkins

Birthplace: Grand Prairie, Texas

Languages spoken: English, some French

Favorite color: Blue

Favorite food: Sushi

Favorite book: Face On the Milk Carton

Favorite place to vacation: Hawaii for the Scenery, Pennsylvania for my friends

Fun facts: I am in love with Greek Mythology, and History Facts! I have a BA in Psychology so whether people know it or not I am always analyzing everything they say, and reading their body language!

Embarrassing moment: I had the pleasure of working the Autograph table at the 2010 NBA All Star Game Jam Session in Dallas, I came in contact with tons of great NBA players and the wonderful Avery Johnson was one of the Legends who attended the autograph session and boy did we make contact. When I went up to talk to him and get a picture with him, I pushed the autograph table into him almost knocking him off the stage! He laughed and kindly said “don’t knock me over now”. He still took time to say bye to me as I continued to work as he departed about 15 minutes later.

Occupation: Dance Instructor, and Dance Performer/Event Hostess, Promotion Model

Favorite quote: “Live Each Day Like It’s Your Last”, and “Treat Others How You Want To Be Treated”

If you could have one day to hang out with any person in the world living or dead, who would it be: Michael Jackson! I would just want him to talk, talk, and talk. I feel he lives inside every performing in this world. Every performer including myself has said, I want to do that, referring to something Michael did, even if it was just a spin, or a hat trick, or something he did lyrically. I would want him to just tell me what kept him going and why/how he loved everyone & everything even if there were no trusting those around him. From there I would just be fully inspired/motivated and feel as if I knew the answer to everything.

Congratulations to Jennifer and the Krunchettes!

We are still needing nominations for the next Dancer of the Month voting.  Dance team coordinators, get your nominations in by Thursday to make the vote.

Meghann Dodd, Venom Girls

Name: Meghann Dodd

Birthplace: Belleville,IL

Languages spoken: Partial Spanish

Favorite color: Pink

Favorite food: Steak and Potatoes

Favorite book: World Almanac of Animals

Favorite place to vacation: Costa Rica….anywhere with a beach

Fun facts: I’m a wildlife Biologist. I worked with lions, tigers, cougars for 2 years. I would love to get into wildlife conservation.

Embarrassing moment: During dress rehearsal, for Miss Texas USA, I was dancing on the top tier on the stage and the strap holding my dress up…broke. So I start running, ducking and weaving through a sea of dancing beauty queens holding my dress together as best as I could. I’m sure giving the onlookers a great show. I got to the end of the runway yelling “wardrobe malfunction” and the staff, there to assist us any situation, didn’t have needles or thread. The next night I competed and danced my heart out in a dress held up with safety pins.

Occupation: Foreclosure Specialist.

Favorite quote: I have three–they are really good…..
“Work like you don’t need the money. Love like you’ve never been hurt. And dance like no one is watching.” – unknown
“I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.” – Thomas Edison
“Accept that some days you’re the pigeon, and some days your the statue.” – Roger C. Anderson
If you could have one day to hang out with any person in the world living or dead, who would it be: Princess Di. She just seems like an amazing and charitable woman whom I could learn so much from.

Currently I have two Dancers of the Month nominations and I expect to have a few more soon.  If you haven’t sent in your Dance Team’s nomination, please do so this week.  You can email them to me at todd@dfwfootball.net.  I would like to do at least a week of voting before revealing the first dancers in May.  We will then continue the voting in May for June and so on.  Consequently, there will be two Dancers of the Month.  I will take the top two dancers in the voting.

We will receive nominations the first two weeks of May and vote the last two.

That will be the procedure.  Have your nominations ready for the next month early in the month!  This should generate a lot of interest for your team, your dance team and your dancers.  Encourage everybody to vote.  I will have a prominent spot on the right side bar where fans can vote.  Post the link on your team’s website, link to it on your twitter and your facebook accounts.

Lady Xpress

Once a girl is chosen from the votes, I will highlight them with a bio and the pictures you send them.  I will keep a small picture of them in sidebar under the header Dancers of the Month with a link to the feature page.

All semi pro football teams–outdoor, indoor and women’s–are invited to participate as long as you have a dance team.  Good luck!
