Danielle Turner and Dani Torchio are a team of Childhood Friends on The Amazing Race 9.
Danielle & Dani flirted with Eric & Jeremy throughout their time in the race, with the two teams working together in Russia in the third leg. However, they discovered that Dani had left their fanny pack at the Roadblock site, forcing them to backtrack and separating them from their allies. This pushed them to the back of the pack, which carried on into the next two legs. Arriving in Sicily on the last flight with Lake & Michelle and Ray & Yolanda, they were beaten to the Yield by the former team, who then promptly Yielded them. Although their Yield ended before Ray & Yolanda got to the Roadblock, Dani struggled at the task, allowing Ray & Yolanda to catch up and eventually pass them, resulting in their elimination in 8th place.
Profile
Retrieved from CBS.com
Danielle & Dani are childhood friends hailing from Staten Island, New York. The two beauties met over 10 years ago and have been inseparable ever since.
Outgoing and talkative, Danielle, who recently graduated from St. Johns University with a degree in Speech Pathology, has limited experience when it comes to traveling abroad and is eager to see what this globetrotting adventure has to offer.
Dani recently graduated at the top of her class from Wagner College. She describes herself as being fun-loving, wild and eager to get out of Staten Island. Like her teammate, Dani also hasn't traveled very much. She hopes the Race will provide her with the chance to explore all the different cultures in the world.
Armed with bold personalities and a fearless attitude, the duo believes that anything is possible with good looks and thick accents, which they aren't afraid to use if it helps them to win the $1 million prize.[1][2]
