Washington
(ANI):
Michaele
Salahi,
the
Real
Housewives
of
D.C.
star,
allegedly
lied
about
her
past
as
a
Washington
Redskins
cheerleader.
In
Thursday's
episode
of
the
Bravo
reality
show,
Salahi
joins
the
'first
ladies
of
football'
to
rehearse
ahead
of
an
alumni
performance.
But
her
inability
to
perform
a
routine
–
and
the
fact
that
no
one
seemed
to
remember
her
–
raised
eyebrows,
reports
People
mag.
According
to
a
Washington
Post
report
published
in
December
after
the
episode
taped,
several
former
cheerleaders
tried
to
learn
more
about
Salahi's
experience
with
the
team.
"She
was
never
at
an
audition,
never
at
a
game
and
never
performed," former
cheerleader
and
choreographer
Sheryl
Olecheck
said.
"When
I
saw
her,
I
had
to
ask
around:
''Who
is
that?""
she
said.
Terri
Lamb,
the
Washington
Redskins
Cheerleaders
Alumni
Association
President,
was
more
decisive.
"We
have
no
record
that
she
ever
was
a
Redskins
cheerleader," Terri
said.
"She
was
listed
on
our
1991
roster
at
Ms.
Salahi's
request
and
based
on
her
misrepresentation
to
us,"
she
said.
However,
Salahi
said
that
she
was
indeed
a
cheerleader
–
just
not
in
1991.
Salahi
said
she
didn't
want
her
real
age
–
she's
44
–
to
be
revealed.
"I
said
I'm
not
interested
in
cheering
with
the
alumni
because
then
my
real
age
will
be
out.
"You
don't
become
a
part
of
the
NFL
–
and
with
cheering
–
just
because
you
think
you're
cute
and
you
go
out
there.
Someone
has
to
authorize
you
to
get
in.Was
I
a
part
of
the
'90s?
Was
that
my
idea?
No.
It
was
[Terri]
Lamb's.
[Now]
I
think
she's
worried
about
the
repercussions
of
her
job
–
and
I
get
it," Salahi
said.
But
Salahi
says
she's
been
a
Redskins
cheerleading
alumni
member
in
good
standing
for
years.
"Since
2004
I've
been
paying
dues," she
says,
"[and
been]
a
part
of
the
[alumni]
association."
