Anisha Kurukulasuriya from Netflix's America's Sweethearts is currently an orthodontist. She was one of the 36 girls of the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders who were featured in the docuseries America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders.

Anisha is from Los Angeles, California, and did her Orthodontics residency at the University of Southern California from 2019 to 2022. In between her patients, she likes to practice her dance routines. Previously, she was part of the Golden State Warriors Cheerleader as well. In her interview with Netflix on June 21, she said:

“If I know I have five minutes between patients, I try to run one or two full routines. It’s tough, but worth it. When I was in dental school, I was on the Golden State Warriors [cheerleading team]."

She further added:

"The Warriors is very hip-hop, and it’s on a court so the things we did there are different than what you’d do on a football field. DCC is very up on your toes, and very technical.”

However, she didn't get through the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders and continues her stint as an orthodontist and dance instructor. She thanked everyone who showcased a lot of love to her throughout the season.
