I believe the young woman who is next to Haley in this picture is Savannah Shay Burhoe aka Savvy. She has performed with her sister as Savvy and Mandy. That might be Mandy on the far left.
A year ago Casey sang to her at Room 5:

Some have remarked that she looks like ZZ Ward. 
She was also hanging out at the aftershow street performance by Haley, Casey, Mark Ballas, Dylan and the others (clapping in the back): https://youtu.be/kiED9vo7bMQ?t=148

Quote:Silentó is a young American up and coming rapper. Best known for his debut single "Watch Me" also popularly known as "Watch Me (Whip / Nae Nae)", that was initially uploaded online on his YouTube channel on January 26, 2015. In five months, the song achieved over 48 million views. In April 2015, he was signed to Capitol Records that released the track as a single with an accompanying music video. The single peaked at number 7 on the US Billboard Hot 100.
Billboard, March 6:
Quote:Silento made a big debut at No. 33 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart this week with "Watch Me," his first (and only) release, which saw an 85 percent increase in streams in the past week.
Why? Videos from fans who decided to follow his instructive lyrics -- "watch me whip, watch me NaeNae" -- and share the results on Vine (and eventually YouTube) resulted in 2.6 million domestic streams for the new artist. Though the song was released just two months ago, everyone from cheerleaders to stuffed pandas are whipping and NaeNae-ing (and doing the Stanky Legg!) to Silento.
