Jazmine & Danielle

Jazmine Lewis and Danielle Littleton are a team of Best Friends/Athletes on The Amazing Race 27.

College track stars, Jazmine & Danielle largely relied on their speed and physicality to get ahead of their competitors. After being informed that the fourth leg was a No-Rest Leg, they immediately regretted not using the U-Turn since its effects would have carried over into the fifth leg on the same day. Regardless, they seemed set to survive the leg until they made two fatal mistakes by not reading their clue properly. With the teams closely bunched together, this gave enough time for the three teams behind them to pass them, eliminating Jazmine & Danielle in 8th place.
