Everyone knows when you go to an HBCU (historically black college and university) football game, it’s all about the bands and the majorettes!

And the Alabama State Honeybeez are no different. These plus-size dancing, golden divas exude body positivity, self-love, and confidence in their Snapchat docuseries, “The Honeybeez of ASU”.  Produced by LaLa Anthony and ITV America’s Leftfield Pictures, the series first premiered in 2018 and documents the 5-women squad as they balance school, life, and dance.  The new 7th season premiered on April 25 and documents the 2019-2020 season. It’s currently airing on Snapchat.

Team captain Asia Banks says the theme for this season is, “Be bold, be beautiful and be you.”

Watch the trailer below: 

The Honeybeez was formed in 2004 by the ASU band director, James Oliver, with the intention of creating plus-sized appreciation. He wanted to create a team of electrifying dancers that wouldn’t necessarily be turned down because their full figures didn’t fit the standard looks of other majorette teams. And with the help of the Honeybeez’s coordinator Ruth Anna M. Williams, these ladies can serve looks and choreography that just as fierce as their attitudes.

Since then the Honeybeez has been on the rise performing on the Steve Harvey morning show in 2013 and for America’s Got Talent season 12 in 2017.  In 2019 the ladies were featured in Nike’s Dream Crazier docuseries campaign, which gained over 300,000 views after the first month of its production.
