| - Caroline Cutbirth and Jennifer Wayne are a team of Country Singers on the 22nd season of The Amazing Race, and the second all-star season of The Amazing Race. Country Singers with famous ancestors, from the band Stealing Angels, they were known for strategically helping other teams and flirting with male locals, so they would be entitled to help them complete various tasks. They barely escaped elimination during the canoe race in the first leg of Season 22 and spent a lot of time racing in the middle of the pack. They were also part of the majority alliance to target Mona & Beth and Joey & Meghan for being allied to Jessica & John. They were closest to eventual winners Bates & Anthony, with whom they flirted with constantly, and also Max & Katie. In Northern Ireland, Jennifer struggled with the bog snorkeling Roadblock, dropping them to a 4th Place elimination. To the surprise of many, they were invited back for All-Stars, despite not being particularly memorable, competitive or having a large fan base. They were a severely underestimated female team on a season stocked with all-male teams and even they saw themselves as the weakest of the All-Star teams. Surprisingly, they ended up being one of the most resilient teams, and while other teams faltered, they showed skill in the tasks and kept up with the pack, even coming in 2nd several times. They were particularly close to and formed "The Accidental Alliance" with Leo & Jamal and Dave & Connor, but used the alliance to target Brendon & Rachel, with whom they shared a rivalry with, and often tried to isolate. They reached the final three, being perhaps the most surprising team to participate in the final leg, with even Phil Keoghan saying he did not see them "going as far as they did". They were neck and neck with Dave & Connor going into the final Roadblock, only for Dave to spot the sign directing them to the Finish Line before Caroline, and they finished in 2nd, a place they had not achieved even once in their original season.
