The sad reality is that if they got rid of the DCC, the Cowboys would still sell out each game. Most fans pay to watch football at the games. The players are the cash cows which is why they're paid accordingly. Seven NFL teams don't have cheerleaders and they still sell out their games. Notwithstanding that, I do feel the DCC should be paid more than what they currently make.
They choose to do it and know what they are being paid. They could decline. Just like any other job, one has a choice to work for the wage being offered or walk away.
So?! They aren't slaves. They CHOSE it. I am sick of hearing about it Most are blubbering and crying and begging when they're cut. So they WANT to be there. It's NOT meant to be one's sole job.
Another factor is that those boots are not yet broken in. It's probably much easier to dance in once they've sweated in them and the shoes have molded to their feet from the body heat
“We perform with boots on so we have to be able to rehearse with boots on” then why not make there wear boots from day one so it’s not such an adjustment at the end of training camp?
I’m guessing they have to custom order them based on each persons shoe size and they don’t wanna order them for as many rookies in the beginning who won’t end up wearing them
I would assume there is also some concern about foot/leg injuries if they wore them for the whole training camp. The boots probably don't have much in terms of cushion or arch support, so better to keep them in athletic shoes for most of the rehearsals so they don't end up with leg injuries.
@@Wyndlespindle when young I wore boots all the time. All over our ranch at the dances and when I was a cheerleader. Boots are actually very comfortable and have good arch support.
I was gonna say this too! So interesting to see her down there, with them, ACTUALLY DOING the movements lol! I felt Judy was more hands-on in the early seasons. She was also tougher, more vocal, and brutal early on.
Obviously this stuff is really complicated and important to the women involved. I can be grateful that nothing in my life depends upon how well I can kick in white boots.
I honestly wouldn't mind giving it a try. Don't think I can make the final cut, but at least I'll be driven to excercise and learn to do the the splits. 😍
They do not have to- they just get another girl to replace those that are not up to their standards. Really surprised that young women are still putting themselves through this.

@@TamiresCaron as a dancer, these aren’t like usual cowboy boots. These are custom made for dance and performance unlike other boots, so it’s difficult to just buy any off the internet and try to practice.

@@intorainbowzOG I think you'd struggle with that, given that like the other person said they're specialised dancewear and these dancers come from all over so you're not guaranteed to find something like that outside of a southern state probably
You would think that before training camp these DCC hopefuls would already have mastered the entrance, jump splits, and kick line. Instead, they come in shocked, like they’ve never seen the classic DCC entrance or kick line . Or, even practicing in cow-girl boots at home. Like something!
That’s a genius idea. I had been a cheerleader for 3 years and and dancer and gymnast for longer and I had never thought of that 😂 my kicks are not bad, but if I had known this before hand that would have made training easier, thanks for pointing this out 😂🫶🏻
If I wanted to be a Dallas Cheerleader there is no way I'd show up never having danced in cowboy boots. Same with learning the entrance routine. Watch the tapes and learn it
And the jump split - they act like it’s a surprise. Invest in a dance coach before tryouts and learn it. Though personally I hate the jump split - injury waiting to happen and always looks jarring to me
@jordansjul This lmaooooo Its hilarious every year how many girls show up and are shocked that they have to do jump splits. Like ummmm it's the signature move? 😂
While stationed in South Korea in Army, about 10-15 Dallas Cheerleaders toured with the USO and performed for us then stayed afterwards to sign autographs with their calendar and mini posters. One of My claim to fame, I dated a 3 year Veteran Seattle Cheerleader for 14 months as Army Recruiter in Seattle Company. Veterans Day for Seattle home game was AWESOMENESS!!! I was able to be ON THE FIELD to be recognized and my girlfriend(Cheerleader) at the time presented me with a plague, 12 Man Jersey with my last name on back, kiss(stadium went WILD when kissed). My eyes got watery for that moment. Players all came up shook our hands, few even "bro" hugged us, Steve Young shook my hand even... never forget those moments
I’ve heard the coaches say in many episodes that girl must have dance experience. My teenage nieces have been in dance and cheerleading since they were very young, competing frequently. They are the type that could tackle and memorize choreography right away
Whew....tough job. Thank you for posting a day and life of a dallas cowboy cheerleaders. I have a lot respect for their hardwork, perfectionism and artistry.....very challenging to have all three and they make it look easy. Excellent post. 💪
I know they have it probably wayyyyy harder but this takes me back to marching band when the coach line up different groups of people to walk in front of the rest of the band while he checks your lines making sure your all staying in line and hitting the yard lines at the right time and making sure your knees weren't bent.........it was always so nerve racking so I can't imagine how they feels cause it's always everyone's worst nightmare to get called out in front of your peers
I was rifle Sgt in our band color guard and it was rough....you had to have your feet doing one thing while flipping a gun...we marched by the majorettes and it was tough on them too. It was hard work but fun.
As a teacher the whole demeanor of this training is so sickening and disempowering. There is no real care for these women. I have no issue with cheerleading but I do have issues with plastic care of those you mentor.
@Ami Thomas this is seasonal it isn’t all year long. Football doesn’t go on all year with big games. Are they supposed to pay them in between seasons even though not all girls return the next season?
i hate seeing judges like this degrade and oppress these girls’ passion and enthusiasm. most times telling someone they’re bad at something doesn’t make them want to try to be better Edit: telling someone they’re bad at something without constructive criticism to follow is just abuse. it’s not coaching. it’s just attacking. I know these women aren’t in highschool and it’s professional cheering but damn, some people just really shouldn’t be teachers/coaches.
When someone calls me bad at something I work every waking moment to be better at it. Sometimes it will be about something I don’t even care about, I’ll just be amazing to spite them
@@thetiredworm2100 definitely! I can’t stand when someone says that type of thing to me. You know what, I’m just not going to do it at all if you don’t like it. It definitely wouldn’t convince me to do better. To me, it’s not a motivator AT ALL.
Wow Kitty Carter!!! She used to be my teacher, and then I became a teacher too, back in the day at Crutchfield Studios. Before she left to start her own studio. RIP, Mr and Mrs Crutchfield. And hello to Kitty Carter, so glad to see you still Rockin On. Patricia Meeks now Shoecraft.
Said it! they're working very hard! like athletes! So good to mix all of that together! And at the end, they're very happy to do it! I really love the first time they make their training with boots.......
I clicked on this not knowing what it was about. I am a bit surprised that they want them to perform like the Rockettes but don't pay them in these training camps and then only pay them 150.00 a week. I did the math and for the season thats 2,550.00. Gameday is probably a 5 hour day and I'm sure they have practice 1 or 2 times week. Why do they do this for the peanuts they pay them. My brother is good friends with the Jaguars mascot, when he started 20 years ago he was working his full time job while doing this on Sunday a couple years later he made the mascot his only job. He makes over 100,000 a year and it changes yearly usually depending how the team is doing and what tricks he does. For example he has a zip line entrance from the top of the lights to the field for that trick he gets paid 10,000 the stadium has to be at a certain occupancy to do that trick. He had the mascot's website and 5 years ago he retired and probably won't have to work for the rest of his life. If that seems crazy so do I. NFL cheerleaders need to get paid more if they want this kind of performance the Rockettes make 1500.00 a week and only work 24 weeks a year plus they get year round health insurance. If radio city can pay that much the NFL surely can.
The DCC are paid $400 per game. Salary is $15-20/hr, depending on seniority. Show group members make more for appearances. But DCC also are encouraged to have jobs or be students.
I watched a HBO program about the Dallas Cheerleaders. The front office treats the women like they are still in high school. By the way you all are champions to me!!!!!!!!!
How could you have a dream to be on the Dallas Cheer Squad and not ever had cowboy boots on until freaking week 7 of tryouts? I’m just asking the question every wants an answer to. Doesn’t everyone know boots need to be broken in? I know they do. Even though my boots were not on the football field, they were danced in all throughout the 90’s on Country Dance Floors. Never wore new boots straight to dance. Walk around the house for several days first. It’s not rocket science! 😂
some of them probably were used to winning competitions, others used to getting0 away with their looks.. and it's not as if they didn't have videos from previous tryouts to know what to expect!
I’m in a marching band, so my toxic trait is thinking I’d be able to do this in time without any practice when I know full well I’d fall flat on my face
As a dancer I believe they would be able to dance better in boots if they had them day one!! If my studio requires newer shoes or stuff we’ve never danced in before we wear them immediately!! Also why don’t their studios have Marley floors! Would help with those boots they wear!!
If I was in charge, I'd have the girls dancing in another part of their games. Judy and Kelli keep saying how they're going to be performing to full stadiums, but I keep seeing empty seats when they're doing their opening dance.
I want some more DCC journey videos. We need Nicole Bulcher's DCC Journey and Sydeny Durso. We also need Jenna's DCC Journey, Mia's DCC Journey, Angela's DCC Journey and also Kelsey's DCC Journey. She had a good stint with DCC.
I’ve never cheered before but I can see some obvious things here: 1) All these candidates know what’s involved in training. They’ve all studied it and it’s supposedly very important to them so.. 2) They know they’ll be kicking in boots so why not practice in boots at home before training even starts. 3) They know how tough the instructors are and how hard it is so the “toughness” of the teachers and the training shouldn’t be a surprise.
typically the dance boots dcc uses and dance teams in general, are a lot different from real cowboy boots. if you want to order dance boots you have to go to a specialty store and are very expensive if ur only ordering one pair. also a lot of them probably assume it just feels like a tennis shoe or something but they do have a quite a bit of weight to them
For similar boots that are made for dancing, the girls would probably have to drop like $600 for the pair, just for practice, which considering what the girls aren't paid, isn't doable.
The question is, what do they look like without the hair extensions, hair color, fake eyelashes, fake tans, and whatever else is fake. What do they look like naturally without all that crap on????
It makes no sense to me to have a completely custom made boot and then not get to keep them. They have to hand them back in to be (training boots). They are recycled for next season. So this means the custom made boots they perform on the field are custom made,...but yet they don't get to keep them? what sense does that make? A custom boot may not fit anyone. Just like every body is different,..every foot is different. Wonder how many boots are thrown away instead of letting the team keep their boots. Can somebody make sense of this??
This is going to sound like a harsh thing to say but I mean it in the best possible way. I seriously feel like to be a DCC not only should they be able to dance, but need to have been in marching band doing something bc then they'd be able to pick up choreography and be able to move quickly to their spot on the field while also dancing and trying to make it look flawless and easy. Plus, these girls should've watched this series when wanting to learn the intro on the field. They have access to the internet
i agree or at least in drill team. i’m on drill team and you have to be able to get fully across a football field in 2 8-counts. you can’t just walk across the field you have to run
I totally agree with the marching band part. If they knew which foot needs to hit the line on what count I think the girls would have an easier time of it.
I LOVED being in the marching band! As a color guard it was always changing counts & we had boots on too. Thank God we didn't practice that long..we still won 1st place!
@@lynnlynn5583 Oh my goodness I'm on the color guard too!! So nice to see someone who thinks highly of the guard and not just says "they don't work hard." We don't have to wear boots, but I can just imagine how difficult it would be especially if they had a hard sole.
Right I’ve done color guard for 5 years and performing on the field is second nature for me and I’ve always wanted to be a Dallas cowboy cheerleader, I was in like 5th 6th and 7th grade learning all the dances and entrances
I feel like if you're trying out for the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders, who are known for their boots, you would practice in boots before you went to compete?
@@samanthamiel2595 true I don’t get that. I would practice the jump splits and kick line at home. Some girls come there with really low kicks and than I think why didn’t you practice that at home to make sure your kicks are high?
Many high schools in Texas have their dance teams dance in similar boots. DCC sets the world bar...Im surprised more do not have prior dance experience in them
I feel like you have to have been in certain types of training to understand this method of teaching. It’s absolutely brutal. A lot of people don’t make it. I was one of them. However I can still see how it can be valuable when what you do is so military precise. I think it also depends on how many people you’re teaching at once, after a while a lot of teachers disconnect from that personal bond with their dancers.
I coached dance teams and high school for many years. I do not understand when the girls are at this level why they are having trouble with kicks and jump splits?????? My girls start competing as juniors and believe me I have zero problems with the height of their kicks and they can all jump split. I can’t believe some girls made it this far without being able to do a jump split.
I danced on my college Pom Pom squad and we wore white boots. Looks great on the field and the kick lines are perfect with those boots. Now they wear black jazz shoes and it looks like crap. You are there to entertain the fans. Big smiles and taking pictures with little kids and even signing autographs. Being on the end of a kick line is extremely difficult.
I’m sure the DCC boots are different but when I was in drill team in hs, we didn’t practice in our boots. Our boots had no traction on the soles so you can hit those turns precisely. We practiced in our cheer shoes to really make sure he had the choreography down and prevent some injury since our cheer shoes had a bit more traction (not a lot but more than the boot) Again I’ve never worn a DCC boot. It may be a little different.
Not everyone makes the team. So if they start with idk 100 girls and only 36 make it then they’re gonna buy a ton of boots and waste a ton of them. Starting with boots at 40 people means that only 4 pairs are gonna wasted. You don’t buy the stuff before you have the team
All think all the lady’s are awesome and doing very well first time in boots, the coaches on cheer teams can be brutal. I want you all to know your great‼️‼️
Maybe CMT should do a show about former DCC that were on the squad before the show. I'm sure there's at least some old video of them out there somewhere, it's just a matter of finding it. Ones like Sarah Shahi, Janet Gunn, and Kristin Holt to name some that went on and became famous after their DCC careers ended.
So, as this was their first time ever wearing cowgirl boots, it was my first time watching a cheerleading video, but I'm from Texas, so it's my duty to watch this team. 😎 Anyway, I really liked Rachael W right off the bat, because she has the best overall everything going for her. She has overall skin tone, athletic health, fantastic hair, sculpted Greek Goddess face, strong legs and hip union which will fill the shorts amazingly gorgeous and she's tall, which is good when you represent a state team of long, tall Texas cowboys. I mean, if Rachael W couldn't dance one step, she could still do promotion gathers and let people take pictures, because she's that Miss Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader ! If you guys want to hear the most Cowgirl song ever, then look for Lisa Moo Moo Marie here on TH-cam. Be blessed always.
Tbh I think that if a rookie doesn’t want to disappoint Kelly and Judy she should practice dancing in boots before entering the audition process... I mean how hard is to find cowboy boots online?
they are super expensive, plus cowboy boots are WAY different from actual dance boots. they could practice with ankle weights tho, it has the same effect.
DCC Boots are custom made by Luchesse. They are not for sale. They aren't sold in stores or online hence the reason why rookies have wait until they get to training camp to wear them.
I am somewhat surprised on how many ladies have never even worn a pair of cowboy boots👢.. I feel like IF your ENTIRE LIFE Your whole DREAM is to be a Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader. Maybe you should've already at least WORN a pair of cowboy boots 👢 🤔 ??? Kinda be prepared?? IDK 🤷🏽 I own several pairs of boots 👢 and Love them😍🥰!! I can understand getting used to dancing in them. Adjusting weight distribution and getting used to the heel.. but you should've at LEAST worn a pair of cowboy 👢 boots... tried dancing in them. etc Don't ya think?? Now I'm not saying this to be mean. These gals work REALLY REALLY HARD to get where they are at. The job they want is a low pay, high demand gig....I couldn't do it. I have alot of Admiration and Respect for these young Ladies... BUT, IF I were working on getting onto the squad... I would really really really want to have an edge over the other girls 😉.. So, I would've bought a pair of 👢boots and been at home practicing in them. Maybe I'm just weird.. actually I KNOW I'm weird. 😘 Still super curious as to WHY alot of these ladies have never even wore a cowboy boot 2👢.🤷🏽
I don't think Rachel W should've gotten point. Someone else should've shared point with Maddie. Maybe Lexie or Gina. I just don't think Rachel W is strong enough.
Okay I’m a cheerleader myself and like love this team and everything but I feel like they are more of a dance team no hate though there doing great but yeah:)
Ok Judy, the first reaction to someone getting injured is to be helpful and assist in rendering assistance, not being critical as per usual. Judy was so wrong when that candidate hurt HER BACK. This are previouss seasons so I hope Judy would have evolved and put aside the constant criticism, be an effective coach that she proclaims to be. This coming from a medical professional. DCC is not more important than a candidate's safety. No wonder Kelly is the talking head.
@@Angelaaa1015 You don't need to be a doctor to know that a back injury is no joke. One wrong move and you could be paralyzed. It's honestly common sense.
@@EmVee. Why would they edit it out? Say they did edit it out, it just makes the coaches look like shit. It also downplays how serious an injury like that can be.
@Ricardo - this channel has done highlights for other seasons yet keeps skipping 7. Also one of the few seasons that have 39 strong squad - we love to see it!
They should have some old boots laying around somewhere for the new girls, so they could get kind of a feeling of them. The do not have to be personalized, it's just so they can get sort of a feeling of the weight. I feel like that would help them a lot more when they get to that stage
🤣...laughable, Glad I never had the low self esteem that it must take in order to have those old crustaceans involved in anyway in my life!😉 These women are awesomeness from the top drawer and should be treated as such...
Dance and gymnastic classes since the age of 3, working out to stay in top physical condition, starvation to maintain 120 lbs, grueling practices, must have a job or go to school, know every detail about the male athletes and ownership. What do you get? Bragging rights that you were a DCC. Women sure have come a long way.
Well, and the opportunity to be a professional dancer. Not my gig, but several mention in other segments that they love to dance. There are not that many chances to dance on this kind of stage.
The DCC pays these hard working women $15 an hour for rehearsals and $150 per game. $75 for appearances. The DCs are a $4.7 billion brand. #PayTheDCC
That's nothing! They need to get paid more! Especially for someone to keep their body like that.
That’s crazy just shows how much discrimination there is in women’s sports.

That would be like having to skate an Olympic program in brand new boots!
This is so odd to me.
Yea that’s like expecting ballerinas to dance in brand new non-sanded or broken in pointe shoes. Almost asking for an injury to happen.
“We perform with boots on so we have to be able to rehearse with boots on” then why not make there wear boots from day one so it’s not such an adjustment at the end of training camp?

That’s a genius idea. I had been a cheerleader for 3 years and and dancer and gymnast for longer and I had never thought of that 😂 my kicks are not bad, but if I had known this before hand that would have made training easier, thanks for pointing this out 😂🫶🏻
If I wanted to be a Dallas Cheerleader there is no way I'd show up never having danced in cowboy boots. Same with learning the entrance routine. Watch the tapes and learn it
And the jump split - they act like it’s a surprise. Invest in a dance coach before tryouts and learn it. Though personally I hate the jump split - injury waiting to happen and always looks jarring to me
@jordansjul This lmaooooo Its hilarious every year how many girls show up and are shocked that they have to do jump splits. Like ummmm it's the signature move? 😂
While stationed in South Korea in Army, about 10-15 Dallas Cheerleaders toured with the USO and performed for us then stayed afterwards to sign autographs with their calendar and mini posters. One of My claim to fame, I dated a 3 year Veteran Seattle Cheerleader for 14 months as Army Recruiter in Seattle Company. Veterans Day for Seattle home game was AWESOMENESS!!! I was able to be ON THE FIELD to be recognized and my girlfriend(Cheerleader) at the time presented me with a plague, 12 Man Jersey with my last name on back, kiss(stadium went WILD when kissed). My eyes got watery for that moment. Players all came up shook our hands, few even "bro" hugged us, Steve Young shook my hand even... never forget those moments
As a band kid we work for HOURS on marching and hitting the line at the same time. Drill drill drill
I’ve heard the coaches say in many episodes that girl must have dance experience. My teenage nieces have been in dance and cheerleading since they were very young, competing frequently. They are the type that could tackle and memorize choreography right away
Whew....tough job. Thank you for posting a day and life of a dallas cowboy cheerleaders. I have a lot respect for their hardwork, perfectionism and artistry.....very challenging to have all three and they make it look easy. Excellent post. 💪
I know they have it probably wayyyyy harder but this takes me back to marching band when the coach line up different groups of people to walk in front of the rest of the band while he checks your lines making sure your all staying in line and hitting the yard lines at the right time and making sure your knees weren't bent.........it was always so nerve racking so I can't imagine how they feels cause it's always everyone's worst nightmare to get called out in front of your peers
I was rifle Sgt in our band color guard and it was rough....you had to have your feet doing one thing while flipping a gun...we marched by the majorettes and it was tough on them too. It was hard work but fun.
As a teacher the whole demeanor of this training is so sickening and disempowering. There is no real care for these women. I have no issue with cheerleading but I do have issues with plastic care of those you mentor.
I cannot believe that young women are still going through this. What a waste of a life and then you do not make it.
cheerleading is outdated and antiquated. No doubt it's hard work, but it's nothing but objectification.
Get out of your feelings 🙄🙄🙄😩😩💁🏽♀️💁🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️!!!!!
You said it yourself, your a teacher of children, not a coach of a professional business. These leaders are super easy on these women.
I danced ballet for years, and I’ve had far worse than what Kitty Carter has dished out, even Abbey Lee from Dance Moms is kind!
Pay these women for the work they do!!!!!!
They do now. This isn’t their main source of income anyways. There are girls who have all sorts of jobs and do this as more of a hobby.
@Ami Thomas this is seasonal it isn’t all year long. Football doesn’t go on all year with big games. Are they supposed to pay them in between seasons even though not all girls return the next season?
Being a Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader is a spring board fir hugely profitable careers. They make money !
@Ami Thomas ballerina train from age 4 up. These girls took some dance classes and think they can get by on looks.
The instructors are so full of themselves.
Boy are they ever!
Oh hell yeah
They sure are...esp.the blonde..like DAMN
All the girls are great, yet those two coaches just rip them to shreds. How sad.
I've always thought they were.
i hate seeing judges like this degrade and oppress these girls’ passion and enthusiasm. most times telling someone they’re bad at something doesn’t make them want to try to be better
Edit: telling someone they’re bad at something without constructive criticism to follow is just abuse. it’s not coaching. it’s just attacking. I know these women aren’t in highschool and it’s professional cheering but damn, some people just really shouldn’t be teachers/coaches.
When someone calls me bad at something I work every waking moment to be better at it. Sometimes it will be about something I don’t even care about, I’ll just be amazing to spite them
@@samanthafaucette5512 Ya, but for a lot of people just bluntly telling them their bad or they suck at smth, it’s really discouraging
@@thetiredworm2100 Ya I understand that, I can see how it would be discouraging
@@thetiredworm2100 definitely! I can’t stand when someone says that type of thing to me. You know what, I’m just not going to do it at all if you don’t like it. It definitely wouldn’t convince me to do better. To me, it’s not a motivator AT ALL.
We should give them a comfort blanket instead and tell fat chicks they're hot?
Wow Kitty Carter!!! She used to be my teacher, and then I became a teacher too, back in the day at Crutchfield Studios. Before she left to start her own studio. RIP, Mr and Mrs Crutchfield. And hello to Kitty Carter, so glad to see you still Rockin On. Patricia Meeks now Shoecraft.
Said it! they're working very hard! like athletes! So good to mix all of that together! And at the end, they're very happy to do it! I really love the first time they make their training with boots.......
Ahhhhh to have you self worth evaluated by your ‘sexiness’. What are we teaching our girls.
This show is the ONLY good thing about the Dallas Cowboys. A show full of 10's!!! 😛👍
I clicked on this not knowing what it was about. I am a bit surprised that they want them to perform like the Rockettes but don't pay them in these training camps and then only pay them 150.00 a week. I did the math and for the season thats 2,550.00. Gameday is probably a 5 hour day and I'm sure they have practice 1 or 2 times week. Why do they do this for the peanuts they pay them. My brother is good friends with the Jaguars mascot, when he started 20 years ago he was working his full time job while doing this on Sunday a couple years later he made the mascot his only job. He makes over 100,000 a year and it changes yearly usually depending how the team is doing and what tricks he does. For example he has a zip line entrance from the top of the lights to the field for that trick he gets paid 10,000 the stadium has to be at a certain occupancy to do that trick. He had the mascot's website and 5 years ago he retired and probably won't have to work for the rest of his life. If that seems crazy so do I. NFL cheerleaders need to get paid more if they want this kind of performance the Rockettes make 1500.00 a week and only work 24 weeks a year plus they get year round health insurance. If radio city can pay that much the NFL surely can.
Damn that’s 🥜
Remember that the cost of living in NYC is stupid high and the city is highly competitive and selective
I hoping when they’re not going to engagements, charities, etc…….that these ladies work at other higher paying jobs, in the off season for them.
The DCC are paid $400 per game. Salary is $15-20/hr, depending on seniority. Show group members make more for appearances. But DCC also are encouraged to have jobs or be students.
This is just like teaching. People keep going into it, so why change anything?
The response "I know" or "ok" vs "Yes, mame" is night and day.
I think the coach is nuts. The kicking dance was great to watch, and I'm sure a bunch of male football fans will be even more enthralled.
I watched a HBO program about the Dallas Cheerleaders. The front office treats the women like they are still in high school. By the way you all are champions to me!!!!!!!!!
I’d have a problem with that. It’d be like reliving it over and over again.
@@babblesp1367 so many people have bad memories of high school. So do I .
I love how they learn each day. When I was like a year old, I went to a cowboys game and I met Judy!
I luv-2-luv dcc, kelli an judi, all of em da whole organization😻🙀😺
How could you have a dream to be on the Dallas Cheer Squad and not ever had cowboy boots on until freaking week 7 of tryouts? I’m just asking the question every wants an answer to.
Doesn’t everyone know boots need to be broken in? I know they do. Even though my boots were not on the football field, they were danced in all throughout the 90’s on Country Dance Floors. Never wore new boots straight to dance. Walk around the house for several days first. It’s not rocket science! 😂
some of them probably were used to winning competitions, others used to getting0 away with their looks.. and it's not as if they didn't have videos from previous tryouts to know what to expect!
I’m in a marching band, so my toxic trait is thinking I’d be able to do this in time without any practice when I know full well I’d fall flat on my face
As a dancer I believe they would be able to dance better in boots if they had them day one!! If my studio requires newer shoes or stuff we’ve never danced in before we wear them immediately!! Also why don’t their studios have Marley floors! Would help with those boots they wear!!
My favorite thing about seeing the girls put the boots on is the fact that a bunch of them have funny socks with pineapples, dots, and stripes on them
My name is Dallas and I love being named after cheerleaders and cowboys
If I was in charge, I'd have the girls dancing in another part of their games. Judy and Kelli keep saying how they're going to be performing to full stadiums, but I keep seeing empty seats when they're doing their opening dance.
They also dance during quarter changes
AYTOL I know, I just think it’s a shame that a lot of people don’t watch their opening number.
@@katygaston8777 But they do if they’re in the stadium 🏟 !!!!!!
I want some more DCC journey videos. We need Nicole Bulcher's DCC Journey and Sydeny Durso. We also need Jenna's DCC Journey, Mia's DCC Journey, Angela's DCC Journey and also Kelsey's DCC Journey. She had a good stint with DCC.
I attended a few classes with Sydney. She was such a nice girl.
Go watch the show!
I’ve never cheered before but I can see some obvious things here: 1) All these candidates know what’s involved in training. They’ve all studied it and it’s supposedly very important to them so.. 2) They know they’ll be kicking in boots so why not practice in boots at home before training even starts. 3) They know how tough the instructors are and how hard it is so the “toughness” of the teachers and the training shouldn’t be a surprise.
typically the dance boots dcc uses and dance teams in general, are a lot different from real cowboy boots. if you want to order dance boots you have to go to a specialty store and are very expensive if ur only ordering one pair. also a lot of them probably assume it just feels like a tennis shoe or something but they do have a quite a bit of weight to them
For similar boots that are made for dancing, the girls would probably have to drop like $600 for the pair, just for practice, which considering what the girls aren't paid, isn't doable.
It's weird seeing Jinelle as a rookie. Vivian is SOOOOO pretty.
The question is, what do they look like without the hair extensions, hair color, fake eyelashes, fake tans, and whatever else is fake. What do they look like naturally without all that crap on????
The uniform glow up is unreal
It makes no sense to me to have a completely custom made boot and then not get to keep them. They have to hand them back in to be (training boots). They are recycled for next season. So this means the custom made boots they perform on the field are custom made,...but yet they don't get to keep them? what sense does that make? A custom boot may not fit anyone. Just like every body is different,..every foot is different. Wonder how many boots are thrown away instead of letting the team keep their boots. Can somebody make sense of this??
It’s all just drama.
The boots are branded for the team. No one would be allowed to wear them except for the cheerleaders and for team business.
Yes
@@kathyjanus1937 That makes sense. So only DCC has them, literally. Other than the look a like the brand sells, evidently.
It's about protecting the brand. You don't want someone selling used DCC training camp boots on eBay.
This is going to sound like a harsh thing to say but I mean it in the best possible way. I seriously feel like to be a DCC not only should they be able to dance, but need to have been in marching band doing something bc then they'd be able to pick up choreography and be able to move quickly to their spot on the field while also dancing and trying to make it look flawless and easy. Plus, these girls should've watched this series when wanting to learn the intro on the field. They have access to the internet
i agree or at least in drill team. i’m on drill team and you have to be able to get fully across a football field in 2 8-counts. you can’t just walk across the field you have to run
I totally agree with the marching band part. If they knew which foot needs to hit the line on what count I think the girls would have an easier time of it.
I LOVED being in the marching band! As a color guard it was always changing counts & we had boots on too. Thank God we didn't practice that long..we still won 1st place!
@@lynnlynn5583 Oh my goodness I'm on the color guard too!! So nice to see someone who thinks highly of the guard and not just says "they don't work hard." We don't have to wear boots, but I can just imagine how difficult it would be especially if they had a hard sole.
Right I’ve done color guard for 5 years and performing on the field is second nature for me and I’ve always wanted to be a Dallas cowboy cheerleader, I was in like 5th 6th and 7th grade learning all the dances and entrances
I feel like if you're trying out for the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders, who are known for their boots, you would practice in boots before you went to compete?
Same with the jump splits. Like everyone knows that’s a requirement, but none of them ever tried it before.
These type of dancing boots aren’t regular cowboy boots, and are custom to the cheerleader. It would be difficult to find similar ones
@@samanthamiel2595 true I don’t get that. I would practice the jump splits and kick line at home. Some girls come there with really low kicks and than I think why didn’t you practice that at home to make sure your kicks are high?
THAT HAS TO BE THE HARDEST CHEERLEADING TEAM TO GET ON LEARNING THE KICKS WITH THE BOOTS ON
Many high schools in Texas have their dance teams dance in similar boots. DCC sets the world bar...Im surprised more do not have prior dance experience in them
I feel like you have to have been in certain types of training to understand this method of teaching. It’s absolutely brutal. A lot of people don’t make it. I was one of them. However I can still see how it can be valuable when what you do is so military precise. I think it also depends on how many people you’re teaching at once, after a while a lot of teachers disconnect from that personal bond with their dancers.
I coached dance teams and high school for many years. I do not understand when the girls are at this level why they are having trouble with kicks and jump splits?????? My girls start competing as juniors and believe me I have zero problems with the height of their kicks and they can all jump split. I can’t believe some girls made it this far without being able to do a jump split.
These boots are made for walking and that's just what they'll do!
Boots on smooth wooden floors vs those boots on the grass has to be quite the contrast
Holy cow Ashley Paige is stunning. Those eye!
I wonder if "Thunderstruck" is their signature song because they mention Texas in the lyrics, or is it just a coincidence?
goodness i love the kick line into a jump split. it’s so cool!! idk how i got here to this binge but oh well
I danced on my college Pom Pom squad and we wore white boots. Looks great on the field and the kick lines are perfect with those boots. Now they wear black jazz shoes and it looks like crap. You are there to entertain the fans. Big smiles and taking pictures with little kids and even signing autographs. Being on the end of a kick line is extremely difficult.
I would think dancing in boots from the beginning would be better so they are used to them!?
I’m sure the DCC boots are different but when I was in drill team in hs, we didn’t practice in our boots. Our boots had no traction on the soles so you can hit those turns precisely. We practiced in our cheer shoes to really make sure he had the choreography down and prevent some injury since our cheer shoes had a bit more traction (not a lot but more than the boot) Again I’ve never worn a DCC boot. It may be a little different.
That means sense! Thanks!
No point paying for boots for that many girls just to cut them
Not everyone makes the team. So if they start with idk 100 girls and only 36 make it then they’re gonna buy a ton of boots and waste a ton of them. Starting with boots at 40 people means that only 4 pairs are gonna wasted. You don’t buy the stuff before you have the team
Def
Lmao all these women saying they haven't worn a boot nor danced in it it's hilarious to me since I've kicked over my friends heads doing karate kicks
If they say they are performing for the first time in BOOTS again...... Lol
What she thought was really bad I thought it was pretty damn good.
All think all the lady’s are awesome and doing very well first time in boots, the coaches on cheer teams can be brutal. I want you all to know your great‼️‼️
Dancing in those boots on a grass field?? My ankles are scared😭
hahahahaha My ankles and toes.
Wish you a fantastic year dallas cheerleaders
I love those boots
And I love their cheer uniforms
They all look so absolutely Incredibly Precious!
Beautiful!!🙌🏼💖🤗😇🙈
I could never just stand there and smile the whole time when I'm upset 😭
I'm always amazed these ladies don't have boots hidden somewhere to practice in so this won't be such a shock.
Maybe CMT should do a show about former DCC that were on the squad before the show. I'm sure there's at least some old video of them out there somewhere, it's just a matter of finding it. Ones like Sarah Shahi, Janet Gunn, and Kristin Holt to name some that went on and became famous after their DCC careers ended.
And Jill Marie Jones from girlfriends
@@jenlunceford I often wonder if we will ever see Jill Marie Jones appear on the show. That would be so amazing.
The instructors are getting older. I wonder who will replace them?
If your going to audition for the team you need to practice in those boots a 6 months to a year prior. Gina was the best DCC ever.
I think Debbie is the best DCC ever!
Amazing the things cheerleaders go through for next to no pay. So serious...
I know, I know but they look great to me❤️
Melina was probably a great cheerleader, she just got into her own head.
So, as this was their first time ever wearing cowgirl boots, it was my first time watching a cheerleading video, but I'm from Texas, so it's my duty to watch this team. 😎
Anyway, I really liked Rachael W right off the bat, because she has the best overall everything going for her. She has overall skin tone, athletic health, fantastic hair, sculpted Greek Goddess face, strong legs and hip union which will fill the shorts amazingly gorgeous and she's tall, which is good when you represent a state team of long, tall Texas cowboys. I mean, if Rachael W couldn't dance one step, she could still do promotion gathers and let people take pictures, because she's that Miss Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader !
If you guys want to hear the most Cowgirl song ever, then look for Lisa Moo Moo Marie here on TH-cam. Be blessed always.
I agree and will listen to that song later!!!!
I love this show! These chickies are super talented
Tbh I think that if a rookie doesn’t want to disappoint Kelly and Judy she should practice dancing in boots before entering the audition process... I mean how hard is to find cowboy boots online?
They’re very expensive. Not like you just grab some 50$ boots with the same weight.
@@Angelaaa1015 it’s not just about the weight, but the feeling, the style of the heel. Some of this girls have never danced in boots before.
they are super expensive, plus cowboy boots are WAY different from actual dance boots. they could practice with ankle weights tho, it has the same effect.
DCC Boots are custom made by Luchesse. They are not for sale. They aren't sold in stores or online hence the reason why rookies have wait until they get to training camp to wear them.
@@RealTalk1411 Lucchese does sell a DCC style boot. It's $600, but it's available.
I am somewhat surprised on how many ladies have never even worn a pair of cowboy boots👢.. I feel like IF your ENTIRE LIFE Your whole DREAM is to be a Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader. Maybe you should've already at least WORN a pair of cowboy boots 👢 🤔 ??? Kinda be prepared??
IDK 🤷🏽
I own several pairs of boots 👢 and Love them😍🥰!! I can understand getting used to dancing in them. Adjusting weight distribution and getting used to the heel.. but you should've at LEAST worn a pair of cowboy 👢 boots... tried dancing in them. etc Don't ya think??
Now I'm not saying this to be mean. These gals work REALLY REALLY HARD to get where they are at. The job they want is a low pay, high demand gig....I couldn't do it. I have alot of Admiration and Respect for these young Ladies...
BUT, IF I were working on getting onto the squad... I would really really really want to have an edge over the other girls 😉.. So, I would've bought a pair of 👢boots and been at home practicing in them. Maybe I'm just weird.. actually I KNOW I'm weird. 😘 Still super curious as to WHY alot of these ladies have never even wore a cowboy boot 2👢.🤷🏽
Yeah I agree, you'd definitely make sure that you dance and kick in boots before you go to the auditions.
I love Rachel but Lexi would’ve been an amazing point 😭 hopefully she comes back this year and gets it!
I don't think Rachel W should've gotten point. Someone else should've shared point with Maddie. Maybe Lexie or Gina. I just don't think Rachel W is strong enough.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love them. They know it or get cut. Any professional Athlete knows it or goes home.
Those splits look so painful and dangerous!!
Okay I’m a cheerleader myself and like love this team and everything but I feel like they are more of a dance team no hate though there doing great but yeah:)
Well yea cuz in professional cheerleading it’s rare to see cheerleaders doing stunts, cheers , etc Bc they can’t draw attention away from the nfl game
they need to get paid more money for all the hard work and games
Ok Judy, the first reaction to someone getting injured is to be helpful and assist in rendering assistance, not being critical as per usual. Judy was so wrong when that candidate hurt HER BACK. This are previouss seasons so I hope Judy would have evolved and put aside the constant criticism, be an effective coach that she proclaims to be. This coming from a medical professional. DCC is not more important than a candidate's safety. No wonder Kelly is the talking head.
Or it was edited out? Ever thought about that?
Medical professional? What medical assistant that think they’re a doctor? 😂😂 front desk? Hmmmm
@@Angelaaa1015 You don't need to be a doctor to know that a back injury is no joke. One wrong move and you could be paralyzed. It's honestly common sense.
@@EmVee. Why would they edit it out? Say they did edit it out, it just makes the coaches look like shit. It also downplays how serious an injury like that can be.
This show has sent them way to high
Wow! Such different body types from the original DC Cheerleaders.
Season 7 highlights, please! We've been asking for almost a year...thanks in advance!
What’s special about season 7? I forget who is there
@@Jonathan-kz8mr i think its the year of Danielle Jasmine Jacie Jenna Chealsea etc. 2012
@Ricardo - this channel has done highlights for other seasons yet keeps skipping 7. Also one of the few seasons that have 39 strong squad - we love to see it!
Ashely looks the mean girl from the all the Bring it on Movie’s ..
First time new boots ...shiny on a shiny floor...hope you have good insurance. Should have a piece of sand paper in each boot box rough up new soles.
They should have some old boots laying around somewhere for the new girls, so they could get kind of a feeling of them. The do not have to be personalized, it's just so they can get sort of a feeling of the weight. I feel like that would help them a lot more when they get to that stage
My guess is it could risk injury to work in boots that aren't custom-made.
Yeah they should be practicing in Boots from the onset. Even if they are old pair.
Those judges are hard
🤣...laughable, Glad I never had the low self esteem that it must take in order to have those old crustaceans involved in anyway in my life!😉 These women are awesomeness from the top drawer and should be treated as such...
You should do a DCC journey with Heather
Which Heather? Haven’t there been a lot?
@@cynthiaanderson6410 She's probably referring to Heather O.
@@RealTalk1411 makes sense
@@cynthiaanderson6410 I would like to see her journey.
@@RealTalk1411 yeah. I think that’s be cool
Dance and gymnastic classes since the age of 3, working out to stay in top physical condition, starvation to maintain 120 lbs, grueling practices, must have a job or go to school, know every detail about the male athletes and ownership. What do you get? Bragging rights that you were a DCC.
Women sure have come a long way.
It doesn’t sound worth it to me. Not AT ALL.
Well, and the opportunity to be a professional dancer. Not my gig, but several mention in other segments that they love to dance. There are not that many chances to dance on this kind of stage.
And minimum wage 🤦♀️
The coach was not considering the floor has gloss on it. She could have really caused harm to her....
Seems to me any applicant should know about the boots and been preparing for it years ahead of trials.
@6:25 - I was in the UTA marching band when DCC was there. We had to find a new rehearsal space at the last minute.
If you can dance, the shoes are immaterial. Either you have it or you don't!
This looks like a Karen training camp. This is honestly so strange and disheartening to watch these young women work so hard for $150/game.
It's $400 a game now.
By the time they pay for make up, haircuts, and teeth whitening- they are in the hole! They just spit those girls out.
