New York Fashion Week has officially kicked off, and this year is already serving a very different vibe. Our social media feeds are still getting clogged up by contrived street style looks, exclusive front row lineups and totally unaffordable fashion brands, but this year, there are few more cheerful spirit fingers.
Yes, that’s right. Gabi Butler and Lexi Brumback from our new favourite Netflix show Cheer have descended upon New York Fashion Week to literally mat talk the models.
Video footage has emerged of the two cheerleaders sitting front row at the recent Brandon Maxwell show giving the models a high-energy pep talk as they stormed the runway.
According to Dazed, when Butler and Brumback attended the Tory Burch show later on, they bumped into model Adwoa Boah who wrote on Instagram, “I will not stop until I am a member of Navarro.”
Gabi Butler and Lexi Brumback aren’t the only Cheer cast members who have gone on to reach new heights after the Netflix show premiered.
Our beloved Jerry Harris recently signed with an influencer agency and even did red carpet interviews at the Oscars with Billie Eilish and Brad Pitt.
Speaking to Harper’s Bazaar, Harris said, “a big thing that’s changed since the show started is obviously how many people want to talk to me, and feel like they already know me.”
“I feel like my job on earth is to spread positivity. And I love all the love I’m getting. Ooh, yes, I do!” he said.
Personally, I am very much here for Jerry and the entire cast of Cheer doing what they do best by spreading positivity – whether it be on the mat, the red carpet, or in the front row at fashion week.
