Saweetie Reunites With Diamonds Dancers At San Diego State University Homecoming
Saweetie got a chance to relive her days as a San Diego State University Diamonds dancer during the school’s homecoming weekend. The team gave a mesmerizing routine to the Bay Area queen‘s 2019 hit single, “My Type.”
In a video posted to Saweetie’s Instagram, she can be seen leading the SDSU Diamonds as they follow her every move.
Wearing leather black pants and a black mesh top, the 31-year-old gave an energetic performance so good that she could have been mistaken for a current student. See below.
“SDSU homecoming w my diamond sisters [halo emoji, diamond emoji, 3-star emoji],” she captioned the post.
The Icy Girl also shared a throwback post from her days as a Diamonds dancer and her time on campus. Saweetie, neé Diamonté Harper, can be seen in photos hanging with her friends, chilling in her dorm room, and taking flicks on her webcam.

Although Saweetie attended San Diego State University, she ultimately graduated from the University of Southern California in 2016 with a Bachelor of Arts in Communications.
Back in May, the “Nani“ rapstress opened up about her college experience on the Zach Sang Show, admitting that there were plenty moments when she’d be “the only woman of color.”
“College taught me how to be comfortable in uncomfortable situations,” she started. “I went to two really prestigious universities, San Diego State, then transferred to USC. And a lot of those rooms sometimes I’d be the only woman of color.”
“It’s really intimidating when you’re around kids who’ve been put through private schools, who’ve had tutoring, who are very affluent, who are very already well educated and they’re just doing this because,” she continued. “I don’t know if it’s because the legacy or it’s just part of like what their family does. Not only did I go to these schools, I’m first generation. I didn’t have anyone to like mentor me. I had no guidance.”
“Anyways, it’s made me a strong woman. But it made me like just put the negative chatter in my head to the side and really just exist in these rooms without putting sometimes my own glass ceilings there,” she further expressed. “Because I would assume because I talk like this, I look like this, they were judging me. But sometimes I was creating these false narratives in my own head.”
“I noticed that when I started to participate more, when I started to show who I was more, everything was fine. It just taught me to be a very forward woman.”
