Jaime, one of 12 new rookie cheerleaders, will be trading in her competition crown and evening gown for a uniform and poms and she dances to rally Eagles fans at home games this upcoming season. She'll also reportedly act as a Goodwill Ambassador for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals, according to Eagles website.

We can't wait to cheer her on! And, FYI, the Philly Eagles Cheerleaders are now a co-ed squad!

Gialloreto inherited her Miss New Jersey crown from Egg Harbor Twp.'s own Kaitlyn Schoeffel, but unfortunately, she didn't go on to win the role of Miss America.
