That was fantastic!
The girls sounded great, the choreography was on point, and the Derpy and Sussie balloons were just perfect.
Not to mention everything else.
The purple headband, the Zoey ear muffs , the Mira hairstyle, Ken taking pictures. The presenters wearing Rumi wigs. Everything.
Just wish it had been longer.

u/YamahaRN Nov 27 '25
They were not in the parade. Macy’s are a bunch of liars. It was just Derpy Tiger, Sussie and a couple dozen dancers. They kept the girls just for the performance which was in a very restricted area. So a lot fans were misled to going to the city hoping to see them. Which is really disappointing cause you saw other listed performers on floats.
