[Charlotte] I think you've decided.

00:00:49,804 --> 00:00:51,639
This is gonna be hard.

such a rock star dancer.
10
00:00:56,728 --> 00:00:59,230
It's hard to cut a veteran.

Mm.
48
00:03:29,672 --> 00:03:32,675
{\an8}Ladies, we have one more name
to invite into training camp.
49
00:03:32,759 --> 00:03:35,053
{\an8}And on behalf of our entire organization,
50
00:03:35,136 --> 00:03:38,306
{\an8}we thank you
for participating in this audition,
51
00:03:38,389 --> 00:03:42,894
and we applaud your talent
and your expertise.
52
00:03:42,977 --> 00:03:44,979
Thank you very much.

invited into the 2023 training camp...
56
00:04:00,828 --> 00:04:04,332

00:04:17,804 --> 00:04:19,389
[Kelli] Congratulations, ladies.
60
00:04:19,472 --> 00:04:22,600
All of you on the field,
congratulations and good night.
61
00:04:27,397 --> 00:04:31,818
[Judy] The hardest thing about our job
is having to cut veterans.
62
00:04:31,901 --> 00:04:35,029
But when it comes down to it,
and the scores are added up,
63
00:04:35,113 --> 00:04:38,283
if those veterans aren't
at the right place,
64
00:04:39,575 --> 00:04:41,244
then they will get cut.
65
00:04:42,578 --> 00:04:47,417
[Kelli] The best-case scenario is that
your veterans are the top scorers,
66
00:04:47,500 --> 00:04:48,835
as they should be.
67
00:04:48,918 --> 00:04:50,253
And then...
68
00:04:50,336 --> 00:04:54,674
You know, in this case, they weren't,
and it's disappointing for everybody.
69
00:04:56,259 --> 00:04:59,721
You're all looking right here.
One, two, three, three, four, five.
70
00:04:59,804 --> 00:05:01,222
Everybody looking this way.

[camera shutter snapping]
72
00:05:05,351 --> 00:05:09,480
[Kelcey] We're angry, and we're emotional,
and mad, and sad
73
00:05:09,564 --> 00:05:12,608
for our friends
that are sitting on the other side
74
00:05:12,692 --> 00:05:15,611
{\an8}and having to get their stuff
and go home for the last time.
75
00:05:18,448 --> 00:05:21,534
[Brooke] This has been a hard day, y'all.
I'm not gonna lie to you.
76
00:05:21,617 --> 00:05:25,621
There's a squad that has been broken up,
and then there's a new squad here.
77
00:05:25,705 --> 00:05:30,126
I encourage you veterans...
You're veterans for a reason, okay?
78
00:05:30,209 --> 00:05:33,254
I understand it hurts.
I had people cut when I cheered.
79
00:05:33,338 --> 00:05:36,883
But you have a bunch of new faces in here
that are looking up to y'all.
80
00:05:36,966 --> 00:05:40,178
They're looking to y'all to be strong,
to be leaders,
81
00:05:40,803 --> 00:05:43,306
to teach them
what the sisterhood is all about.
82
00:05:43,890 --> 00:05:47,560
So use what you're feeling
to bring this team together.
83
00:05:49,645 --> 00:05:51,230

00:05:56,194 --> 00:05:59,072
[Kelcey] I apologize if we're not
in the best of spirits tonight.
86
00:05:59,155 --> 00:06:03,493
Like, I don't want this to take away from
this amazing moment in your guys' lives,
87
00:06:03,576 --> 00:06:05,995
that you get to come to training camp.
We're so proud of you.
88
00:06:06,079 --> 00:06:08,831
But obviously,
this is a really hard moment for us.

[tearfully] I'm okay. I'm okay.
96

I love you guys so much.
97
00:06:35,066 --> 00:06:38,778
I wouldn't have given it up for the world,
like anything.
98
00:06:39,404 --> 00:06:42,031
[sniffles] I wouldn't have
changed anything.
99
00:06:43,991 --> 00:06:45,243

{\an8}[Brooke] New girls,
not quite rookies just yet.
102
00:06:56,504 --> 00:06:59,507
{\an8}You're in training camp.
You're training camp candidates.
103
00:06:59,590 --> 00:07:02,593
If anybody asks, you're not
a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader yet.
104
00:07:02,677 --> 00:07:06,013
You gotta earn that status.
You gotta earn the boots, earn the poms,
105
00:07:06,097 --> 00:07:08,641
and you're going to do that
over the next few weeks.
106
00:07:08,724 --> 00:07:10,518
That's all I'm gonna say about that.
107
00:07:10,601 --> 00:07:14,772
If y'all can start passing these around,
we're gonna talk about your first meeting
108
00:07:14,856 --> 00:07:18,151
and/or your first rehearsal.
Can you believe?
109
00:07:18,234 --> 00:07:20,778

Wait, I get
the sugar-free vanilla syrup too normally.
121

Okay, that's... I've seen it on...

-Did you find that on TikTok?
-Yeah, it was on TikTok.

-[Charly] A good one!

[Reece] Becca is from Mississippi,
and Charly is from California.
153
00:09:35,371 --> 00:09:37,373
Which is so cool to me,
154
00:09:37,456 --> 00:09:40,209
because I have never been to California.
155
00:09:40,293 --> 00:09:43,170
I have only been to New Jersey once.

[Kelly] It's so crazy, guys.

The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders,
even in Jersey, are such a big...
159
00:09:49,385 --> 00:09:52,138
And that is so far from Texas.
160
00:09:52,221 --> 00:09:55,766
Like, since I was little,
I was like, "That's what I wanna do."
161
00:09:55,850 --> 00:09:59,312
Kelly was so looking forward
to coming to the South
162
00:09:59,395 --> 00:10:01,272
because we have plastic bags.
163
00:10:01,355 --> 00:10:07,862
In New Jersey, she has to carry everything
with a paper bag or just with her items.
164
00:10:07,945 --> 00:10:09,405
I have plastic bags in my room,
165
00:10:09,488 --> 00:10:11,824
and I'm like,
"I need to take these back home."
166
00:10:11,907 --> 00:10:14,535
I could sell that for money in Jersey.

-That is so funny.

have been so funny and just so awesome,

00:10:21,876 --> 00:10:24,962
because we are all in this together.
We are all in the same boat.
170
00:10:25,046 --> 00:10:29,300
And we can just kind of laugh
and go through this process together,
171
00:10:29,383 --> 00:10:32,887
because we're all rookies at this.
We don't really know what to expect.
172
00:10:32,970 --> 00:10:35,598
-I'm so excited to get all glammed up.
-I know.
173
00:10:35,681 --> 00:10:38,309
-Our first, like, official thing.
-I know!
174
00:10:38,392 --> 00:10:42,271
[Reece] They all offer something different
which I think is so cool and unique.
175
00:10:42,355 --> 00:10:44,774
You kind of can feed off of each other
with that.
176
00:10:44,857 --> 00:10:46,901
[Kelly] I'm excited
to see everyone's dresses.
177
00:10:46,984 --> 00:10:48,569
[Charly] Send what you're wearing.
178
00:10:48,653 --> 00:10:50,446
-Yes.
-'Cause I can't wait to see it.
179
00:10:51,197 --> 00:10:53,741
-[Reece] Y'all, I'm so excited.
-[Kelly] I know!
180
00:10:53,824 --> 00:10:54,909
[Reece exclaims]
181
00:10:58,788 --> 00:11:02,333
[gentle, airy instrumentals playing]
182
00:11:06,837 --> 00:11:09,006
{\an8}So we're gonna do what we normally do.
183
00:11:09,090 --> 00:11:11,592
{\an8}We're gonna line up
on either one of those doors.
184
00:11:11,676 --> 00:11:16,597
{\an8}So if we can go by decade,
and let's have our '70s out here.
185
00:11:16,681 --> 00:11:21,435
Let's do '80s. Let's do '90s.
My '00s and my '10s.
186
00:11:21,519 --> 00:11:24,021
I can't believe it! Wow!
187
00:11:24,105 --> 00:11:25,272
You stay there.
188
00:11:25,773 --> 00:11:27,525
-And where's my '70s?
-Right here.
189
00:11:27,608 --> 00:11:28,693
Okay, that's Cindy.
190
00:11:28,776 --> 00:11:32,405
Guide off of Kat, please.
Straight line. Set...
191
00:11:32,488 --> 00:11:34,490
Y'all figure... They'll figure it out.
192
00:11:34,573 --> 00:11:36,701
-[interviewer] What is this?
-What is this?
193
00:11:36,784 --> 00:11:38,452
[bright, upbeat music playing]
194
00:11:38,536 --> 00:11:41,288
[Brooke]
We call it the welcome clap-in line.
195
00:11:41,372 --> 00:11:43,791
It's very similar to a player intro line
at a football game.
196
00:11:44,959 --> 00:11:48,337
So the alumni, we have kind of taken that
to this level
197
00:11:48,421 --> 00:11:50,840
to welcome
our new training camp candidates
198
00:11:50,923 --> 00:11:52,425
to their very first meeting.
199
00:11:52,508 --> 00:11:53,843
-Yay!
-Great job, girls.
200
00:11:53,926 --> 00:11:55,928
-We're so proud of y'all.
-So proud!
201
00:11:57,263 --> 00:11:58,514
[woman] Good luck!
202
00:11:59,098 --> 00:12:02,685
[Brooke] At this meeting,
the training camp candidates will learn
203
00:12:02,768 --> 00:12:05,646
what to expect over the next few weeks
in training camp.
204
00:12:05,730 --> 00:12:08,607
[alumna] Good luck. We love you so much.
You're gonna do amazing!
205
00:12:08,691 --> 00:12:10,401
All right, love y'all now.
206
00:12:10,484 --> 00:12:12,737
See you girls. [puckering lips]
207
00:12:13,487 --> 00:12:14,655
Y'all, look at me and wave.
208
00:12:14,739 --> 00:12:17,491
-[Tina] What time's the reservation?
-[Suzy] 7:15. We need to go now.
209
00:12:17,575 --> 00:12:19,869
[Tina] It's already 7:35.
They've cancelled us.
210
00:12:19,952 --> 00:12:21,871
[Suzy] No, they haven't. They haven't.
211
00:12:21,954 --> 00:12:23,372
[Kelli] Are they all in?
212
00:12:28,794 --> 00:12:30,212
Hello!
213
00:12:30,296 --> 00:12:31,422
[women] Hi!
214
00:12:31,505 --> 00:12:36,093
{\an8}Welcome to the official classroom
of the Dallas Cowboys Football Club.
215
00:12:36,177 --> 00:12:37,970
{\an8}And welcome to training camp.
216
00:12:38,053 --> 00:12:39,346
{\an8}[cheering]
217
00:12:40,639 --> 00:12:42,683
So there's 44 in the room.
218
00:12:43,768 --> 00:12:46,270
Facts are our team is 36.
219
00:12:46,353 --> 00:12:50,941
Everybody, at this point,
is in the game at the same starting line.
220
00:12:51,776 --> 00:12:55,613
We will be announcing the final team
by July 19.
221
00:12:55,696 --> 00:13:00,993
So for those of you that are jobless,
and homeless, and relocating,
222
00:13:01,911 --> 00:13:05,456
if you make it through July 19,
you'll have clarity about your future.
223
00:13:05,539 --> 00:13:09,710
Tomorrow, we will start getting to see you
as dancers with our choreography
224
00:13:09,794 --> 00:13:11,212
in our studio.
225
00:13:11,295 --> 00:13:16,926
My advice to you is to bring your best
every minute you get here,
226
00:13:17,009 --> 00:13:19,929
but don't overanalyze our expressions.
227
00:13:20,012 --> 00:13:21,013
Um...
228
00:13:21,680 --> 00:13:24,809
Well, you may not get much from me
'cause I got Botox.
229
00:13:24,892 --> 00:13:26,018
[laughter]
230
00:13:26,101 --> 00:13:27,144
But... [laughs]
231
00:13:28,187 --> 00:13:29,480
If I could...
232
00:13:29,563 --> 00:13:30,940
Judy will frown at you.
233
00:13:31,023 --> 00:13:32,817
[laughter]
234
00:13:32,900 --> 00:13:34,902
[soft jazz music playing]
235
00:13:34,985 --> 00:13:39,949
Be dressed and ready at 7:00,
because we always start promptly at 7:00.
236
00:13:40,032 --> 00:13:44,161
We should be finished by ten o'clock
every night. That's our goal.
237
00:13:44,245 --> 00:13:47,998
No food or drink in the studio,
but of course, you may bring dinner in,
238
00:13:48,082 --> 00:13:50,167
because I know some of you
are running in from work,
239
00:13:50,251 --> 00:13:52,711
and you have to have something to eat
before rehearsal.
240
00:13:52,795 --> 00:13:55,422
[alumna] Tina, Tina, get in.
241
00:13:58,217 --> 00:14:00,177
{\an8}I'm always the giant amongst y'all.
242
00:14:00,261 --> 00:14:01,804
{\an8}And I'm always the brunette.
243
00:14:01,887 --> 00:14:02,847
{\an8}How are you?
244
00:14:03,681 --> 00:14:05,724
-Hi.
-How are you?
245
00:14:05,808 --> 00:14:08,018
-Livin' the dream, sister.
-You look beautiful.
246
00:14:08,102 --> 00:14:09,812
{\an8}-Thank you.
-Beautiful!
247
00:14:09,895 --> 00:14:12,147
{\an8}-Thank you. How are you?
-Good to see you.
248
00:14:12,231 --> 00:14:15,734
{\an8}I know. It feels weird
being on the other side. I'm like, "Okay."
249
00:14:15,818 --> 00:14:18,779
{\an8}I saw Judy, and I was like,
"Go, Anna Kate,"
250
00:14:18,863 --> 00:14:21,782
{\an8}and she smiled so big.
I'm like, "I love you."
251
00:14:21,866 --> 00:14:24,577
{\an8}-You're the sweetest sister ever.
-Aw.
252
00:14:24,660 --> 00:14:27,955
{\an8}She's awesome.
Her and Victoria would have so much fun.
253
00:14:28,038 --> 00:14:31,208
-Victoria will take care of her.
-Yeah, she would. She will.
254
00:14:31,709 --> 00:14:36,338
[Kelli] So I would like to have you guys
introduce yourselves.
255
00:14:36,422 --> 00:14:37,256
Anisha.
256
00:14:38,257 --> 00:14:40,009
Hi, everyone. My name is Anisha.
257
00:14:40,092 --> 00:14:42,720
I'm originally
from Porter Ranch, California.
258
00:14:42,803 --> 00:14:44,638
I am currently an orthodontist.
259
00:14:44,722 --> 00:14:45,806
It's been fun.
260
00:14:45,890 --> 00:14:48,976
{\an8}And something fun I did today,
or I guess not so fun.
261
00:14:49,059 --> 00:14:51,604
{\an8}But I was trying to take a bracket
off of a tooth,
262
00:14:51,687 --> 00:14:53,314
and I accidentally extracted the tooth.
263
00:14:53,397 --> 00:14:54,523
[all exclaim]
264
00:14:54,607 --> 00:14:56,442
But it was a baby tooth, so we're good.
265
00:14:56,525 --> 00:15:00,738
There's another permanent tooth coming,
so we're solid. So, yeah, it's okay.
266
00:15:00,821 --> 00:15:03,240
[scattered applause]
267
00:15:03,324 --> 00:15:05,951
{\an8}I just recently graduated
from Texas Christian University
268
00:15:06,035 --> 00:15:07,328
{\an8}with a degree in finance.
269
00:15:07,411 --> 00:15:10,873
{\an8}And I will begin my job in August
with 49 Financial
270
00:15:10,956 --> 00:15:13,083
as an investment advisor representative.
271
00:15:13,876 --> 00:15:16,629
Um, so today,
what I did was study all day.
272
00:15:16,712 --> 00:15:19,798
So I read three chapters
and took about three tests
273
00:15:19,882 --> 00:15:22,092
to get my license. Yeah.
274
00:15:22,176 --> 00:15:24,178
{\an8}I got my animal science degree
275
00:15:24,261 --> 00:15:26,805
{\an8}and continue to work
as a veterinary technician.
276
00:15:26,889 --> 00:15:29,767
{\an8}Currently, I'm actually
a fitness instructor as well.
277
00:15:29,850 --> 00:15:31,310
{\an8}So that has been fun.
278
00:15:31,393 --> 00:15:35,648
{\an8}I do not like coffee, so I never know
what to order or what to get,
279
00:15:35,731 --> 00:15:39,568
{\an8}but I tried a Strawberry Açaí
for the first time, so...
280
00:15:39,652 --> 00:15:42,655
{\an8}My job is not always so glamorous,
so I'll spare you a lot of details.
281
00:15:42,738 --> 00:15:46,450
{\an8}But today one of the things I did
was changed a trach tube.
282
00:15:46,533 --> 00:15:49,912
{\an8}Um, it's something she breathes out of,
a little hole in her neck.
283
00:15:49,995 --> 00:15:53,415
I have to change that every few days
to make sure she can breathe well.
284
00:15:53,499 --> 00:15:55,292
That's one thing I did today. Yes.
285
00:15:56,543 --> 00:15:58,087
I'm from Coppell, Texas.
286
00:15:58,170 --> 00:16:02,049
And I'm currently a fitness instructor,
a dance instructor,
287
00:16:02,132 --> 00:16:05,052
and a student at the ballet...
at the Joffrey Ballet School.
288
00:16:05,135 --> 00:16:08,639
-[crowd chattering]
-[Tina] I would like a margarita, please.
289
00:16:08,722 --> 00:16:11,350
[waiter] The Mambo Taxi
or a margarita on the rocks?
290
00:16:11,433 --> 00:16:13,352
-Just regular.
-You like the Mambo Taxi.
291
00:16:13,435 --> 00:16:16,021
You know what actually?
I want a Skinny Margarita.
292
00:16:16,105 --> 00:16:17,439
-Okay.
-On ice.
293
00:16:17,523 --> 00:16:18,399
I got you.
294
00:16:18,482 --> 00:16:20,192
You still drink Skinny Margaritas?
295
00:16:20,275 --> 00:16:22,486
-I have to.
-Lord, no.
296
00:16:22,569 --> 00:16:25,072
-You're not a mama.
-No, not yet.
297
00:16:25,155 --> 00:16:28,993
I gotta watch it.
And I live with... Victoria.
298
00:16:29,785 --> 00:16:32,705
-She's tiny, but she works out a lot.
-She does.
299
00:16:32,788 --> 00:16:33,622
She's healthy.
300
00:16:34,331 --> 00:16:36,667
She does, but I mean,
she doesn't think she is.
301
00:16:37,876 --> 00:16:40,629
She looks like a million bucks.
I'm like, "Girl..."
302
00:16:40,713 --> 00:16:43,090
Because one year,
it's, "You're too heavy."
303
00:16:43,173 --> 00:16:46,677
-The next year is, "You're too thin."
-I know. It's a hard world. Like...
304
00:16:47,970 --> 00:16:51,015
-I had hip surgery in April.
-Yes.
305
00:16:51,098 --> 00:16:53,434
Obviously, I gained
a little weight after that.
306
00:16:53,517 --> 00:16:55,144
I really went through a few weeks
307
00:16:55,227 --> 00:16:57,938
where I was like,
"I don't like what I look like."
308
00:16:58,022 --> 00:16:59,273
-You look great.
-Thank you.
309
00:16:59,898 --> 00:17:03,152
-Guess what? It's Barbie time.
-[crowd] Aw!
310
00:17:03,235 --> 00:17:05,362
-You want blonde or brunette?
-[Judy] I'll help.
311
00:17:05,446 --> 00:17:06,447
[Kelli] You pick.
312
00:17:06,530 --> 00:17:09,491
-I'll take a brunette, maybe.
-Brunette? Okay.
313
00:17:10,075 --> 00:17:12,786
-Thank you so much. Thank you.
-Barbie.
314
00:17:13,287 --> 00:17:15,748
[applause, cheering]
315
00:17:15,831 --> 00:17:17,791
I wanted one more second with the hug.
316
00:17:18,709 --> 00:17:19,543
Yay.
317
00:17:19,626 --> 00:17:21,879
[dreamy, gentle music playing]
318
00:17:21,962 --> 00:17:25,049
Does everybody know Madeline's mama
was a cheerleader too?
319
00:17:25,883 --> 00:17:26,967
And Victoria.
320
00:17:27,634 --> 00:17:31,096
Both of whose moms shared a locker room
with me.
321
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:33,098
-Congratulations.
-Thank you.
322
00:17:33,182 --> 00:17:36,143
[applause, cheers]
323
00:17:38,812 --> 00:17:42,357
[Kelcey] It's really exciting and awesome
to make it into training camp.
324
00:17:43,025 --> 00:17:45,444
But there's still a lot of cuts
to be made.
325
00:17:46,695 --> 00:17:49,990
And we never know
when cuts are gonna happen.
326
00:17:50,908 --> 00:17:55,287
Not knowing if you're gonna get
to the finish line,
327
00:17:55,370 --> 00:17:59,833
{\an8}and get the trophy, get the uniform
is really scary.
328
00:17:59,917 --> 00:18:02,711
{\an8}I mean, you put your whole life on hold
to come here.
329
00:18:02,795 --> 00:18:05,380
So it's... it's a lot of pressure.
330
00:18:09,176 --> 00:18:11,011
[music fades]
331
00:18:11,095 --> 00:18:15,390
{\an8}[bright, sprightly orchestral music
playing]
332
00:18:21,230 --> 00:18:23,565
Well, let's hope
today's word is "purpose."
333
00:18:24,983 --> 00:18:27,319
It is. It's just gonna have to be.
334
00:18:27,986 --> 00:18:30,114
[chatter]
335
00:18:34,451 --> 00:18:36,120
I just want to, like, start it.
336
00:18:36,870 --> 00:18:38,163
[Anna Kate] I'm anxious.
337
00:18:44,878 --> 00:18:46,004
How are you?
338
00:18:46,088 --> 00:18:47,673
You look cute. How are you?
339
00:18:47,756 --> 00:18:48,715
You look cute too.
340
00:18:49,216 --> 00:18:51,135
-Thanks.
-Really cute outfit.
341
00:18:51,218 --> 00:18:52,636
Where'd you get that?
342
00:18:52,719 --> 00:18:55,347
You look cute too. You look cute too.
343
00:18:55,430 --> 00:18:57,808
-Where'd you get the outfit?
-Ladies, come on in!
344
00:18:57,891 --> 00:18:58,725
Oh. Oh. Oh.
345
00:18:59,768 --> 00:19:00,769
All right.
346
00:19:01,728 --> 00:19:04,940
Welcome to your first rehearsal.
347
00:19:05,023 --> 00:19:07,067
[cheering]
348
00:19:09,653 --> 00:19:13,907
I wanna remind you tonight
that we are here to choose our team.
349
00:19:14,533 --> 00:19:17,452
Cheat word at the board.
350
00:19:17,536 --> 00:19:20,164
We know you're great dancers,
or you wouldn't be in this room.
351
00:19:20,247 --> 00:19:24,418
So we really wanna encourage you
to start showing us your personality,
352
00:19:24,501 --> 00:19:27,796
your authentic personality
and also your dancer's personality,
353
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:29,715
who you are as a showman.
354
00:19:29,798 --> 00:19:32,176
I've seen,
especially rookies under pressure,
355
00:19:32,259 --> 00:19:35,012
kind of crawl in their heads
and freak themselves out,
356
00:19:35,095 --> 00:19:36,763
and we don't get to see
who you really are.
357
00:19:36,847 --> 00:19:39,641
So I wanna encourage you
to show us your personality.
358
00:19:39,725 --> 00:19:40,934
-Okay?
-Yes, ma'am.
359
00:19:41,018 --> 00:19:43,270
[cheering, applause]
360
00:19:43,353 --> 00:19:45,522
[McKenzie] Five, six, seven,
down on eight.
361
00:19:45,606 --> 00:19:48,775
Step out, one, look, two, three, four.
362
00:19:48,859 --> 00:19:51,111
{\an8}Pick, five, six, seven, eight.
363
00:19:51,195 --> 00:19:53,530
{\an8}[Judy] Are they getting faster as they go?
364
00:19:53,614 --> 00:19:57,201
Kaylin, you're right here,
so you're gonna get a lot of me tonight.
365
00:19:57,910 --> 00:19:59,369
I watched you a lot.
366
00:20:00,662 --> 00:20:04,291
And you chopped off the moment
I just told you about.
367
00:20:04,374 --> 00:20:06,460
-Hesitate on it.
-What was the last move?
368
00:20:06,543 --> 00:20:08,295
[Kelli] McKenzie, help her on that passé.
369
00:20:08,378 --> 00:20:11,840
[McKenzie] You just went for salsa.
Seven, eight. One...
370
00:20:11,924 --> 00:20:13,258
Stay higher longer.
371
00:20:13,342 --> 00:20:16,303
Boom. Up. Relevé. Can you get higher?
372
00:20:17,763 --> 00:20:20,307
[Kelli] Once someone makes it
into training camp,
373
00:20:20,390 --> 00:20:23,727
they first start learning
all of our game choreography,
374
00:20:23,810 --> 00:20:25,687
which is about 50 routines.
375
00:20:25,771 --> 00:20:27,189
It's just... It's a lot.
376
00:20:27,814 --> 00:20:31,026
If I was a 19-year-old rookie,
this would scare me.
377
00:20:31,109 --> 00:20:32,778
Does this make you nervous, being in here?
378
00:20:32,861 --> 00:20:35,405
{\an8}-Just a little, but it's okay.
-[laughter]
379
00:20:35,989 --> 00:20:38,617
{\an8}-[Judy] So are y'all ready for kicks?
-[all] Yes, ma'am.
380
00:20:38,700 --> 00:20:41,161
[bright, slightly whimsical music playing]
381
00:20:44,831 --> 00:20:47,668
[Judy] Regardless of what kind
of background they've come from,
382
00:20:47,751 --> 00:20:51,213
I think the biggest challenge
a lot of them have is our kickline.
383
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:55,050
[Kelli] Precision is a must.
Exactness is a must.
384
00:20:55,133 --> 00:20:59,096
Formations are a part
of our effectiveness.
385
00:20:59,930 --> 00:21:04,768
{\an8}When they all come together,
they need to dance like one person.
386
00:21:04,851 --> 00:21:08,230
Darian, sorry,
but your kicks need to be higher.
387
00:21:09,106 --> 00:21:13,485
A blonde with a not-pointed left foot.
388
00:21:14,528 --> 00:21:16,863
Madeline, almost looks
like a stamina thing.
389
00:21:16,947 --> 00:21:18,407
[Madeline] Yes, ma'am.
390
00:21:18,490 --> 00:21:20,909
[Judy] When you hook up in a line,
391
00:21:20,993 --> 00:21:24,204
and you've got the weight
of 35 other girls next to you,
392
00:21:24,705 --> 00:21:28,083
and you all have to kick in unison,
393
00:21:28,166 --> 00:21:33,505
sometimes the best dancer
just doesn't get it.
394
00:21:34,089 --> 00:21:35,799
[Kelli] Anisha, you look...
395
00:21:36,591 --> 00:21:39,720
honestly, in the kick category, untrained.
396
00:21:39,803 --> 00:21:44,182
But you have beautiful, long legs,
so there's potential.
397
00:21:44,850 --> 00:21:48,228
The reality is we're famous for kicks,
so it's a must.
398
00:21:48,312 --> 00:21:49,438
[all] Yes, ma'am.
399
00:21:50,647 --> 00:21:54,943
-Rookie candidates, forward.
-[Kelcey] Rookie candidates, come forward.
400
00:21:55,485 --> 00:21:58,196
We'll split into rookies and vets
on this part.
401
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:01,950
We're all gonna go one, tap on two.
402
00:22:02,451 --> 00:22:05,412
Rookies are gonna wait.
Vets are gonna go three...
403
00:22:05,495 --> 00:22:07,998
[Kelcey] This year,
I'm the only returning first leader.
404
00:22:08,665 --> 00:22:09,875
The other three retired.
405
00:22:09,958 --> 00:22:12,461
Hair flip on seven, eight.
406
00:22:13,045 --> 00:22:17,049
[Kelcey] The first leader is basically
one of our head captains.
407
00:22:17,132 --> 00:22:18,759
Taking a world-class organization
408
00:22:18,842 --> 00:22:22,554
and making sure
that we are delivering every year.
409
00:22:23,096 --> 00:22:24,723
[Judy] Watch Kelcey when she's teaching.
410
00:22:24,806 --> 00:22:29,811
She uses her curves a lot
and makes the step look... sexier.
411
00:22:30,979 --> 00:22:34,316
Kelcey I depend on so much.
412
00:22:35,108 --> 00:22:35,942
She's a star.
413
00:22:37,194 --> 00:22:41,114
[Kelli] You can already see
Kelcey starting to take a leadership role.
414
00:22:41,198 --> 00:22:45,118
We can see, through the years,
who people start following,
415
00:22:45,702 --> 00:22:49,122
and it's not always necessarily
the best dancer.
416
00:22:49,206 --> 00:22:51,833
We try to pick the best people leaders.
417
00:22:52,376 --> 00:22:55,087
And we want a leader
that the girls respect.
418
00:22:56,421 --> 00:22:58,757
[Victoria] Group leaders,
they kinda go by seniority.
419
00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,551
{\an8}So you'll see more
of a fourth year up there.
420
00:23:02,135 --> 00:23:04,054
Fifth year, definitely.
421
00:23:05,138 --> 00:23:07,182
Would I want it? Yes.
422
00:23:09,893 --> 00:23:13,647
[Judy] Having great chemistry on our team
is really important.
423
00:23:14,147 --> 00:23:18,443
They can all be great dancers,
but they all have to get along also.
424
00:23:18,527 --> 00:23:23,448
That's, I think, the biggest part
in having a successful team.
425
00:23:24,157 --> 00:23:28,578
But sometimes, someone just might not have
the personality
426
00:23:28,662 --> 00:23:30,497
that gets along
with the rest of the girls.
427
00:23:33,166 --> 00:23:35,836
For Victoria to be put
in a group leader position,
428
00:23:35,919 --> 00:23:39,005
she has to connect more
with her teammates.
429
00:23:40,882 --> 00:23:42,509
[Victoria] I wanted to ask...
430
00:23:43,802 --> 00:23:46,972
just what y'all think of me.
431
00:23:48,140 --> 00:23:51,101
You know you're talented.
You know you're beautiful.
432
00:23:52,060 --> 00:23:53,311
In a broad stroke,
433
00:23:53,395 --> 00:23:56,982
I don't think you had the same stamina
as 18, 19-year-old Victoria.
434
00:23:57,482 --> 00:23:58,775
-Really?
-[Kelli] Mm-hmm.
435
00:23:58,859 --> 00:23:59,776
Okay.
436
00:24:00,819 --> 00:24:03,029
-Just strength. I mean, we're used to...
-Yeah.
437
00:24:03,113 --> 00:24:05,115
...you could leap and go to heaven and back.
438
00:24:05,198 --> 00:24:06,950
-Even in the kicks. I would say stamina.
-Okay.
439
00:24:07,033 --> 00:24:08,994
-If you're working on that, great.
-Yes.
440
00:24:09,077 --> 00:24:12,330
Let's make sure you have enough fuel
and enough energy.
441
00:24:12,414 --> 00:24:13,415
[Victoria] Okay.
442
00:24:15,542 --> 00:24:18,462
-[interviewer] You grew up with Kelli.
-Yes. Mm-hmm.
443
00:24:18,545 --> 00:24:21,298
Besides my mom,
Kelli was the first person that held me.
444
00:24:22,716 --> 00:24:27,888
There's just a different obstacle
that you're having to maneuver around
445
00:24:27,971 --> 00:24:29,973
with me being a part of DCC.
446
00:24:30,807 --> 00:24:33,226
[gentle, tense music playing]
447
00:24:34,269 --> 00:24:35,729
When I walked into the audition,
448
00:24:35,812 --> 00:24:39,357
seeing her, like, have
that professional front was like...
449
00:24:39,441 --> 00:24:42,736
[gasps] ...took me a second to get used to.
450
00:24:42,819 --> 00:24:45,906
[Kelli] She is not at her trimmest state.
451
00:24:45,989 --> 00:24:48,533
[Victoria] We were weighing in,
like, every week.
452
00:24:49,159 --> 00:24:51,119
Sometimes, it would be at 11:00 p.m.
453
00:24:51,203 --> 00:24:54,206
You did have some judges say
they wanted you to tone up your tummy.
454
00:24:54,289 --> 00:24:56,166
[Victoria] I didn't know
how to handle that.
455
00:24:56,249 --> 00:25:00,962
And I just want to always show them
that I am
456
00:25:01,046 --> 00:25:03,840
either better than they last saw me
or the best.
457
00:25:03,924 --> 00:25:06,927
I want them to think,
"Damn, that's Victoria."
458
00:25:07,010 --> 00:25:10,096
May I ask if there's a possibility
459
00:25:10,180 --> 00:25:15,060
of seeing me in a different role?
460
00:25:16,269 --> 00:25:20,190
[Kelli] Like having a formal leadership
role and title? Is that what you're...
461
00:25:20,273 --> 00:25:21,191
Yes. As a...
462
00:25:21,274 --> 00:25:23,777
[cell phone vibrating]
463
00:25:23,860 --> 00:25:27,656
Sorry. I have too many people trying
to interrupt our peace of mind, don't I?
464
00:25:28,448 --> 00:25:32,619
I appreciate that you are always
a very helpful spirit.
465
00:25:32,702 --> 00:25:35,705
So I would say keep that
466
00:25:35,789 --> 00:25:38,375
as a natural space that you're good at.
467
00:25:38,458 --> 00:25:39,584
[Victoria] Mm-hmm.
468
00:25:39,668 --> 00:25:41,002
You know, I don't know.
469
00:25:42,128 --> 00:25:43,922
She's very hard to read, to me.
470
00:25:45,465 --> 00:25:47,551
-All right. You feel good?
-[Victoria] I feel good.
471
00:25:47,634 --> 00:25:49,970
-Good. You sure?
-[Victoria] Yes, I'm positive.
472
00:25:51,304 --> 00:25:53,431
-Okay.
-[Kelli] Okay.
473
00:25:53,515 --> 00:25:54,474
-Noted.
-Okay.
474
00:25:54,558 --> 00:25:55,976
-Thank you.
-Bye.
475
00:25:58,436 --> 00:26:00,355
[Kelli] I just don't see Victoria as...
476
00:26:01,231 --> 00:26:04,067
-18-year-old Victoria.
-[Kelli] Yes. And that's not fair.
477
00:26:04,150 --> 00:26:06,152
-You've known her all her life.
-I know.
478
00:26:06,236 --> 00:26:08,238
-With the big bow on her head.
-True.
479
00:26:08,905 --> 00:26:11,616
I remember this season
there were times where I thought
480
00:26:11,700 --> 00:26:14,327
she was not the young,
481
00:26:14,411 --> 00:26:16,663
physically strongest dancer
she used to be.
482
00:26:16,746 --> 00:26:18,832
-She seemed tired.
-I didn't feel that this year.
483
00:26:18,915 --> 00:26:22,335
But the year before,
she definitely had a stamina problem.
484
00:26:22,919 --> 00:26:24,921
That's when she was...
485
00:26:26,464 --> 00:26:28,008
getting healthy again.
486
00:26:28,091 --> 00:26:31,219
-As long as she's fueling herself...
-[Judy] Mm-hmm.
487
00:26:33,597 --> 00:26:36,474
...'cause there was a time
where I think she probably wasn't.
488
00:26:36,975 --> 00:26:39,936
[soft, thoughtful music playing]
489
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,191
[music fades]
490
00:26:45,275 --> 00:26:46,985
[birds chirping]
491
00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,364
-[woman] Dr. Anisha? I'm ready for you.
-[Anisha] Yes. Ready? Okay.
492
00:26:56,036 --> 00:26:58,496
Hello! Are you excited?
493
00:26:58,580 --> 00:27:00,540
I'm excited for you. All right.
494
00:27:00,624 --> 00:27:03,168
-How are we feeling about your teeth?

before we plan to take it off?
496

-[woman] Everything's good.
-No? All right!
497
00:27:08,923 --> 00:27:10,967
What'd you do this weekend? Anything fun?
498
00:27:11,051 --> 00:27:13,970
Open as wide as you can.
There we go. Good job.
499
00:27:14,554 --> 00:27:17,182
-You're doing great. Almost done, okay?
-[girl] Okay.
500
00:27:17,265 --> 00:27:19,934
[gentle music playing]
501
00:27:20,018 --> 00:27:22,395
[Anisha] If I have five minutes
between patients,
502
00:27:22,479 --> 00:27:24,564
I'll try to run one or two routines.
503
00:27:25,857 --> 00:27:28,818
Some people have a full day off
and are able to practice the whole day,
504
00:27:28,902 --> 00:27:31,446
and I'm thinking,
"I don't have the most practice time,
505
00:27:31,529 --> 00:27:33,239
so I just use what I can."
506
00:27:34,115 --> 00:27:36,409
Yeah, it's rough but worth it.
507
00:27:37,285 --> 00:27:39,663
Okay, yeah, let's go ahead
and do an 18 NiTi.
508
00:27:39,746 --> 00:27:40,955
I'm obviously getting older.
509
00:27:41,039 --> 00:27:43,375
I'm probably not gonna have
this opportunity in a few years.
510
00:27:43,458 --> 00:27:45,293
So I'd rather live life to the fullest
511
00:27:45,377 --> 00:27:48,421
and try to take advantage
of every hour I have in a day.
512
00:27:48,505 --> 00:27:49,631
Home stretch.
513
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,969
When I was in dental school,
I was on the Golden State Warriors.
514
00:27:55,637 --> 00:27:57,889
Warriors is very hip-hop.
And it's on a court,
515
00:27:57,972 --> 00:28:01,976
so the things we do on there is different
from what you'd do on a football field.
516
00:28:02,477 --> 00:28:05,814
DCC is very up on your toes,
and it's very technical,
517
00:28:05,897 --> 00:28:09,192
whereas my background is different
in terms of my dance training.
518
00:28:09,275 --> 00:28:11,444
It's harder for me
to implement that immediately.
519
00:28:11,528 --> 00:28:14,197
I have to think about
all those things as I'm dancing,
520
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:16,032
whereas another dancer
who's trained in that,
521
00:28:16,116 --> 00:28:17,617
it just might come naturally.
522
00:28:19,577 --> 00:28:21,663
I'm gonna check on this patient
real quick.
523
00:28:22,247 --> 00:28:24,290
[upbeat percussive music playing]
524
00:28:24,374 --> 00:28:25,959
Nope, that was a bad one.
525
00:28:26,042 --> 00:28:27,043
[laughs]
526
00:28:29,838 --> 00:28:31,339
That was a bad one too.
527
00:28:32,173 --> 00:28:35,635
{\an8}Technique and ballet
are pretty much the base of dance.
528
00:28:36,386 --> 00:28:37,512
{\an8}Then from technique,
529
00:28:37,595 --> 00:28:40,640
you can go into style,
and genre, and everything.
530
00:28:41,599 --> 00:28:44,853
I've been doing ballet
since I was two years old.
531
00:28:45,478 --> 00:28:47,355
Ballet is a great base to have
532
00:28:47,439 --> 00:28:51,151
because it just teaches you
how to stand on both feet,
533
00:28:51,234 --> 00:28:53,236
like, turns, and jumps,
534
00:28:53,319 --> 00:28:56,781
the way you stretch your legs,
and the way that you point your feet,
535
00:28:57,615 --> 00:29:00,160
all things that have a right answer.
536
00:29:01,035 --> 00:29:02,579
There's a right and wrong to technique,
537
00:29:02,662 --> 00:29:05,707
and that's what I like to strive,
to always get the right.
538
00:29:06,750 --> 00:29:10,128
[instructor on video] And seven, and...
539
00:29:10,211 --> 00:29:12,422
[interviewer] If you're
a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader,
540
00:29:12,505 --> 00:29:14,507
what style of dance is that?
541
00:29:14,591 --> 00:29:19,012
I don't know if I would put it in a genre
because I feel like it's its own style.

545
00:29:24,893 --> 00:29:27,103
[laughs] I don't know.
Something like that.
546
00:29:29,022 --> 00:29:32,942
I've never done anything like it before,
so I don't know what to compare it to.
547
00:29:33,485 --> 00:29:35,570
I feel like
that's the hardest part for me.
548
00:29:36,446 --> 00:29:39,741
Since I'm in a hotel,
and this is my whole...
549
00:29:39,824 --> 00:29:43,119
my whole life right now
is centered around this audition,
550
00:29:43,203 --> 00:29:46,539
it just makes me think a lot about
551
00:29:46,623 --> 00:29:48,708
what if the outcome isn't what I want?
552
00:29:48,792 --> 00:29:50,877

[Reece] I've experienced
so many different auditions,

00:30:07,602 --> 00:30:10,271
but this one is definitely the hardest.
560
00:30:11,189 --> 00:30:12,816
{\an8}I'm in a new state.
561

{\an8}I am away from family and from friends.

It is challenging.

[interviewer] Tell me about your fiancé.
568
00:30:33,086 --> 00:30:34,462
How did you meet him?
569
00:30:34,546 --> 00:30:39,759
Yes! So, my fiancé's name is Will,
and we met in college.
570
00:30:39,843 --> 00:30:41,094
He's from Alabama.
571
00:30:41,177 --> 00:30:44,389
And, um, we actually met at an Ala...
572
00:30:44,472 --> 00:30:46,474
Whoa! That was so country!
573
00:30:46,558 --> 00:30:50,895
Please cut that out. That was not funny.
Do not put that in there.
574
00:30:50,979 --> 00:30:55,358
So Will and I met
at, um, the University of Alabama,
575
00:30:55,441 --> 00:30:58,862
and I was cheering
at, um, a basketball game.
576
00:30:59,445 --> 00:31:05,410
And Will is the biggest
Alabama basketball fan I have ever met.
577
00:31:05,493 --> 00:31:09,581
{\an8}[man] Yeah! Yeah! Let's go!

Ever.
579
00:31:11,958 --> 00:31:14,669
He saw me,
and we connected through social media.
580
00:31:15,628 --> 00:31:21,217
And he was in a freshman Bible study
with the church I attended at the time.
581
00:31:22,302 --> 00:31:24,012
Just seeing his social media too,
582
00:31:24,095 --> 00:31:26,556
I was like,
"Okay, well, I'll give it a try."
583
00:31:26,639 --> 00:31:28,808
But I had never dated anyone before.
584
00:31:28,892 --> 00:31:31,895
I was scared of boys.
I didn't have time for boys.
585
00:31:31,978 --> 00:31:33,938
I was scared. I didn't know what to do.
586
00:31:34,522 --> 00:31:36,900
Now we are getting married,
which is crazy.
587
00:31:36,983 --> 00:31:39,903
The first boy I met
is now gonna be my husband.
588
00:31:41,446 --> 00:31:45,158
It's a lot, being engaged,
and him just kind of waiting
589
00:31:45,241 --> 00:31:48,661
for what my life
could potentially look like.
590
00:31:49,454 --> 00:31:53,541
But wherever the Lord takes me,
wherever the Lord takes him,
591
00:31:53,625 --> 00:31:55,877
we're gonna be together,
whatever that might look like.
592
00:31:55,960 --> 00:32:00,590
So he is prepared to come to Texas,
or Florida, wherever we are.

I guess when we kick to the side.
601
00:32:22,487 --> 00:32:25,365
And kicking like this in front of my nose,
I'm not used to that.
602

-Does that hurt?
-A little bit.

00:35:20,123 --> 00:35:21,040
-Yes, sir.
-Great job.
661
00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:28,548
I don't know why, when I look at you,
I think, "Disney princess."
662
00:35:29,132 --> 00:35:31,425
But when you dance,
it's like a whole different person.
663
00:35:32,468 --> 00:35:35,721
It's something that really makes me
want to know more about you.
664
00:35:36,264 --> 00:35:39,725
That performance quality, to me,
is affecting this entire group.
665
00:35:40,518 --> 00:35:41,686
Don't let that fade.
666
00:35:42,854 --> 00:35:44,230
-Anisha, right?
-Yes.
667
00:35:44,313 --> 00:35:46,649
-Your aura is beautiful. It's so great.
-Thank you.
668
00:35:46,732 --> 00:35:47,692
Let it out.
669
00:35:47,775 --> 00:35:51,737
We're like,
"You can be very fun to watch."

00:35:53,197 --> 00:35:54,323
[woman] Yeah!
672
00:35:56,075 --> 00:35:59,287
Victoria right here stood out to me.
Right? Victoria? Yes.

674
00:36:00,955 --> 00:36:01,873
[Evan] Yes.
675
00:36:01,956 --> 00:36:04,917
I just love her energy.
And she took time off, yeah?
676
00:36:05,001 --> 00:36:05,960
[Kelli] Mm-hmm.
677
00:36:07,795 --> 00:36:10,882
[Evan] And then these four
are not on my radar right now.
678
00:36:10,965 --> 00:36:12,842

-[Kelli] Kaylin, Kennedy.

-[Kelli] Becca...
680
00:36:14,177 --> 00:36:16,179
[Evan and Kelli] Becca and Charly.
681
00:36:19,807 --> 00:36:23,519
[Kelli] Evaluations kind of
happen every night.
682
00:36:23,603 --> 00:36:28,858
I'm gonna have you put 36 stickers
on 36 people that make your team.
683
00:36:29,442 --> 00:36:31,402
It kinda comes down to the sticker.
684
00:36:31,903 --> 00:36:35,114
'Cause I have people pick their top 36.
685
00:36:35,698 --> 00:36:37,867
I believe in my system.
I've designed this system
686
00:36:37,950 --> 00:36:42,663
so that we have performance excellence
and performance development.
687
00:36:43,539 --> 00:36:45,750
We'll watch them,
routine by routine by routine.
688
00:36:47,084 --> 00:36:49,086
And the strugglers who might struggle,
689
00:36:49,170 --> 00:36:51,380
it might just be simply
we're moving too fast.
690
00:36:52,215 --> 00:36:54,592
It might be
that the others have more training.
691
00:36:54,675 --> 00:36:57,595
And these first initial cuts
will definitely be
692
00:36:57,678 --> 00:36:59,513
those that don't have the flexibility
693
00:36:59,597 --> 00:37:01,807
to do what we know
they have to be able to do,
694
00:37:01,891 --> 00:37:03,267
which are the high kicks.

-Here's our concern.
-[Kaylin] Yes.
721
00:38:14,171 --> 00:38:17,383
It's your kicks and your flexibility,

and your flexibility and your kicks,
and your kicks and your flexibility.

Yes, ma'am.
724
00:38:22,096 --> 00:38:27,351
[Kelli] We'll be making cuts throughout

00:38:30,688 --> 00:38:32,857
You're not in our top 36,
728
00:38:32,940 --> 00:38:35,901

-Our experience...
-Mm-hmm.
730
00:38:38,446 --> 00:38:39,655
...is that
731
00:38:41,282 --> 00:38:47,121
there won't be enough time for your kicks
to be game-ready for our show.
732

I can get there for you all.

[Kelli] We... We don't know that yet
734
00:38:53,044 --> 00:38:55,671
after three days of training camp,
to be honest with you.
735
00:38:55,755 --> 00:38:57,965
We don't think
you'll be ready for this team.

-I think you can do it. I don't think...

[dramatic music playing]
739

that all the judges thought
you were beautiful.

of the job

00:39:16,067 --> 00:39:19,153
that needs to also happen.
743
00:39:20,488 --> 00:39:22,698
I understand. [sniffles] Yes, ma'am.
744
00:39:23,949 --> 00:39:26,327
[Darian] I held my tears this entire time.

-[Judy] It's okay.
-Yeah.
746
00:39:29,747 --> 00:39:31,457
-Thank you, though.
-[Judy] We get it.

-Of course.

[Michele] When a young lady is cut,
761
00:40:12,331 --> 00:40:15,459
I make sure they never leave on their own.
762
00:40:16,293 --> 00:40:18,003
I will wait with her.
763
00:40:18,629 --> 00:40:21,841
Because it's just... It's that devastating.
764
00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:26,720
[Kelcey] Our first game
is a lot earlier this year,
765
00:40:26,804 --> 00:40:28,722
and our training camp started a lot later.
766
00:40:28,806 --> 00:40:31,767
So we don't have a lot of time to nitpick.
767

Bye, everybody.

to look clean
770
00:40:38,566 --> 00:40:41,152
and come ready and prepared
to look like a vet.
771

I'm so sad. I wish you had more time,
because I know you would've...
772
00:40:46,407 --> 00:40:49,869
-Yeah.
-But we'd love to see you back next year.

-You're so sweet.
-So grateful. I love you guys.

{\an8}Good old watermelon.

Yum, yum. Yummy.

-[Victoria] Mom, I'll eat in there.
-Okay.
805

[gentle, thoughtful music playing]
806
00:42:25,130 --> 00:42:30,678
[Victoria] My first year, before my cut,
I was called in four or five times.
807
00:42:30,761 --> 00:42:34,807
And one was about my weight.
808
00:42:34,890 --> 00:42:37,768
One was about
not being professional enough
809
00:42:37,851 --> 00:42:39,853
and not communicative enough.
810
00:42:40,604 --> 00:42:43,941
I feel like we're at a point
where you really need to take
811
00:42:44,024 --> 00:42:47,194
a real mature approach to this as a job.
812
00:42:48,445 --> 00:42:50,948
I did go to a few nutritionists,
813
00:42:51,031 --> 00:42:55,327
but I think I was...
not embarrassed at the time,
814
00:42:55,411 --> 00:42:59,999
but unwilling to accept the help.
815
00:43:00,082 --> 00:43:04,461
Let me know your opinions
on this little top that I got.
816
00:43:04,545 --> 00:43:06,589
Ooh! I like it. I like all the colors.
817
00:43:06,672 --> 00:43:11,218
[Victoria] Everyone, everyone in the world
has accepted curves more,
818
00:43:11,302 --> 00:43:15,347
and not having to be,
okay, abs toned, no jiggle.
819
00:43:15,931 --> 00:43:19,685
But it was just
a whole different situation
820
00:43:19,768 --> 00:43:21,020
five, six years ago.
821
00:43:21,103 --> 00:43:22,104
Ew!
822
00:43:22,187 --> 00:43:24,898
[music playing in video]
823
00:43:24,982 --> 00:43:26,108
[Tina] Ew what?
824
00:43:26,191 --> 00:43:28,152
[Victoria] I am appalled at myself.
825
00:43:28,986 --> 00:43:31,030
I look disgusting.
826
00:43:31,113 --> 00:43:32,823
You don't look disgusting ever.
827
00:43:32,906 --> 00:43:34,783
-Yes, I do.
-No, you don't.
828
00:43:36,910 --> 00:43:39,330
[Victoria] My shorts look
three sizes too small.
829
00:43:39,413 --> 00:43:40,456
[Tina] Where?
830
00:43:40,539 --> 00:43:44,627
-It's pinching into my belly rolls.
-They're loose and baggy.
831
00:43:44,710 --> 00:43:45,919
It is...
832
00:43:46,003 --> 00:43:48,380
-Okay, that's too critical. I'm sorry.
-No.
833
00:43:48,464 --> 00:43:52,259
If you zoomed in on any of the other girls
at this angle,
834
00:43:53,093 --> 00:43:54,762
you're gonna get the same stuff.
835
00:43:55,346 --> 00:43:57,306
[announcer] ...the Dallas Cowboys.
836
00:43:57,389 --> 00:44:00,309
[Victoria] There's no way to hide it,
like anything.
837
00:44:00,934 --> 00:44:05,064
It's like so mentally challenging
to keep that physique up.
838
00:44:05,648 --> 00:44:08,859
Whether it's healthy habits, bad habits,
it's hard.
839
00:44:10,402 --> 00:44:13,947
You don't get a new uniform.
Once you're fitted for that uniform,
840
00:44:14,031 --> 00:44:18,452
{\an8}that size is the size that you get.
You don't get to go up. If you go up...
841
00:44:19,495 --> 00:44:22,665
{\an8}they're like, "Why does this not fit you?"
842
00:44:22,748 --> 00:44:26,251
{\an8}A lot of girls think
if you strength train or weight train,
843
00:44:26,335 --> 00:44:29,338
{\an8}you're gonna bulk up,
and nobody wants to bulk up on the team,
844
00:44:29,421 --> 00:44:32,049
because you wanna fit in your shorts
that are pretty small.
845
00:44:32,132 --> 00:44:34,677
I think it's harder for girls
846
00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:38,263
not to even just
not wanna starve themselves.
847
00:44:38,347 --> 00:44:40,849
I know when I look in the uniform,
I'm always like,
848
00:44:40,933 --> 00:44:42,851
"I need to lose at least three pounds."
849
00:44:42,935 --> 00:44:46,021
[gentle, dramatic music playing]
850
00:44:51,235 --> 00:44:54,196
[music brightens]
851
00:44:55,781 --> 00:44:56,699
[Kelli] Oh my God.
852
00:44:57,533 --> 00:44:59,284
This is history. [giggles]
853
00:45:00,828 --> 00:45:03,664
We've recovered a pair of old shorts.
854
00:45:04,665 --> 00:45:06,333
Let's call it 1980-something,
855
00:45:06,417 --> 00:45:08,335
and then, now this is current.
856
00:45:09,002 --> 00:45:13,298
Everybody says we've changed them.
All we've done is sparkle them.
857
00:45:13,382 --> 00:45:16,218
The people that keep telling me
I've made the uniforms smaller,
858
00:45:16,301 --> 00:45:18,053
here's your proof in the pudding.
859
00:45:19,805 --> 00:45:23,100
When you look at the Dallas Cowboys
Cheerleaders' uniform,
860
00:45:23,183 --> 00:45:25,185
it's instantly recognizable.
861
00:45:25,978 --> 00:45:30,566
There's no doubt when you see someone
in that white uniform
862
00:45:30,649 --> 00:45:34,361
with the blue stars, the fringe,
the blue blouse, the tie,
863
00:45:35,112 --> 00:45:36,321
that's who they are.
864
00:45:36,405 --> 00:45:39,074
[grand, sweeping orchestral music playing]
865
00:45:43,871 --> 00:45:45,330
[music fades]
866
00:45:45,414 --> 00:45:46,874
Reece, are you ready?
867
00:45:46,957 --> 00:45:49,251
[Reece] Yes, ma'am. Just one second.
868
00:45:49,334 --> 00:45:50,210
[woman laughing]
869
00:45:50,294 --> 00:45:52,504
-[woman] Need help with anything?
-Do you need help?
870
00:45:53,297 --> 00:45:54,548
-[Reece] Um...
-[laughter]
871
00:45:54,631 --> 00:45:55,549
Uh-oh.
872
00:45:55,632 --> 00:45:58,177
[Kelli] The uniform is beautiful,
873
00:45:58,260 --> 00:46:00,804
and it's also very form-fitting,
874
00:46:00,888 --> 00:46:03,307
and it's definitely not one-size-fits-all.
875
00:46:03,849 --> 00:46:05,392
[whimsical music playing]
876
00:46:05,476 --> 00:46:06,769
[Kelli] Reece.
877
00:46:06,852 --> 00:46:10,397
But confidence,
their own internal confidence,
878
00:46:10,481 --> 00:46:13,817
can make them appear better
in the uniform.
879
00:46:13,901 --> 00:46:15,569
[assistant] These shorts fit like a glove.
880
00:46:16,153 --> 00:46:18,822
[Caroline] The uniform is literally part
of the audition process.
881
00:46:19,406 --> 00:46:22,034
[Kelli] Becca, in person,
looks too scrawny
882
00:46:22,117 --> 00:46:24,912
and I want to see
if the uniform fattens her up.
883
00:46:24,995 --> 00:46:28,165
{\an8}[Caroline] You try it on,
and you're trying to speak with Kelli.
884
00:46:28,248 --> 00:46:30,501
{\an8}You're wanting her
to fall in love with you, to be like,
885
00:46:30,584 --> 00:46:32,127
"This girl should be on the squad."
886
00:46:32,211 --> 00:46:36,340
You're also hoping that the shorts fit you
in the right way they're supposed to fit.
887
00:46:36,423 --> 00:46:37,841
-Hi.
-[Kelli] Here's Camille.
888
00:46:37,925 --> 00:46:39,593
I knew this would pop on her.
889
00:46:39,676 --> 00:46:42,012
{\an8}[woman] Yes! You look great.
Come on down, girl.
890
00:46:42,805 --> 00:46:46,934
{\an8}[Caroline] The nerves are a mix because,
one, you have to stand in front of Kelli
891
00:46:47,017 --> 00:46:50,229
{\an8}and try to keep a conversation going.
892
00:46:50,312 --> 00:46:51,980
That is terrifying.
893
00:46:52,064 --> 00:46:54,274
What's your opinion
of artificial intelligence?
894
00:46:54,358 --> 00:46:56,235
What do you think is the best thing
for everybody
895
00:46:56,318 --> 00:46:58,737
to eat before practice
to sustain practice?
896
00:46:58,821 --> 00:47:01,073
-What's your fiancé's name?
-His name is Will.
897
00:47:01,156 --> 00:47:03,367
He's actually my first boyfriend. And...
898
00:47:03,450 --> 00:47:07,287
-[Kelli gasps] Really?
-He's the first guy I've ever dated, and...
899
00:47:07,371 --> 00:47:08,580
Good.
900
00:47:08,664 --> 00:47:12,543
So he's Catholic, and you're Buddhist.
How are y'all gonna raise children?
901
00:47:12,626 --> 00:47:14,211
So, I converted to Catholicism.
902
00:47:14,294 --> 00:47:15,462
-You did?
-Yeah.
903
00:47:15,546 --> 00:47:16,672
-Wow.
-Yeah.
904
00:47:16,755 --> 00:47:18,966
[Caroline] I've never been
through a process
905
00:47:19,049 --> 00:47:21,176
like becoming
a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader,
906
00:47:21,260 --> 00:47:25,222
because the things that come into play,
you would never think of before.
907
00:47:25,305 --> 00:47:29,434
{\an8}-[Kelli] What's average belly-button-to...
-About two and a half. Yeah.
908
00:47:29,518 --> 00:47:31,979
{\an8}[Kelli] It looks a little low to me
at the moment.
909
00:47:32,062 --> 00:47:34,815
I think that torso proportion
is a big thing.
910
00:47:34,898 --> 00:47:38,026
They don't want it
to look disproportionalized, almost.
911
00:47:38,110 --> 00:47:40,863
I'm seeing too many inches here.
912
00:47:40,946 --> 00:47:42,990
-Yeah, we're gonna raise the belt.
-Okay.
913
00:47:43,073 --> 00:47:45,576
You don't wanna look too skinny.
You don't wanna look too thick.
914
00:47:45,659 --> 00:47:47,786
You don't want your love handles
to hang over.
915
00:47:47,870 --> 00:47:49,288
Don't want your legs to look too big.
916
00:47:49,371 --> 00:47:52,624
-[Kelli] Her thighs look a little angular.
-[assistant] Okay.
917
00:47:52,708 --> 00:47:54,793
You wanna have some good-looking cleavage,
918
00:47:54,877 --> 00:47:56,920
but not, "Oh my gosh.
This is out of control."
919
00:47:57,004 --> 00:47:59,006
{\an8}-You're so tiny.
-She's all in the front.
920
00:47:59,089 --> 00:48:01,383
{\an8}-But everything's natural?
-Yeah.
921
00:48:02,217 --> 00:48:04,177
Got it from my mama. [giggles]
922
00:48:04,261 --> 00:48:05,554
I hear that.
923
00:48:05,637 --> 00:48:07,055
I'm so excited for the Kelli knot.
924
00:48:07,139 --> 00:48:10,350
[delicate orchestral music playing]
925
00:48:12,185 --> 00:48:17,316
{\an8}-Fits her perfectly. Everything's great.
-"Petite and proportionate."
926
00:48:18,233 --> 00:48:21,361
[Caroline] If your God-given body
is proportioned a certain way,
927
00:48:21,445 --> 00:48:22,321
you're just lucky.
928
00:48:23,113 --> 00:48:24,865
[Kelli] I was looking, like, "Judy,
929
00:48:24,948 --> 00:48:26,867
she's got perfect dimensions
for the uniform."
930
00:48:26,950 --> 00:48:28,869
She's beautiful. She'll look great.
931
00:48:29,703 --> 00:48:32,080
[Caroline] Obviously fitness
and eating right is important,
932
00:48:32,164 --> 00:48:34,583
but there are some things
you really can't control.
933
00:48:34,666 --> 00:48:37,294
I'm gonna rename this girl "tiny heinie."
934
00:48:37,377 --> 00:48:40,839
-She has no booty, so we can go up higher.
-We can give her the illusion.
935
00:48:40,923 --> 00:48:44,635
[Kelli] Becca, is this your normal,
maintainable weight, or...?
936
00:48:44,718 --> 00:48:46,428
-This is about normal for me.
-Normal.
937
00:48:46,511 --> 00:48:49,556
{\an8}You're a curvy girl in a great way.
938
00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:53,810
{\an8}If someone looks
like the uniform belongs on them,
939
00:48:54,436 --> 00:48:56,897
it could change the trajectory
of training camp.
940
00:48:56,980 --> 00:48:58,899
[music ends with dramatic flourish]
941
00:49:00,484 --> 00:49:02,402
[Kelli] You got 22 days
till we're introducing

Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders

944
00:49:06,698 --> 00:49:08,784
There's gonna start being some movement.

["Here I Am" by Dolly Parton playing]
946
00:49:11,536 --> 00:49:15,457
[Judy] Kelly has gone... down some.
947
00:49:15,540 --> 00:49:18,251
[Kelli] Yeah, Kelly dropped down
to me last night.
948
00:49:18,835 --> 00:49:23,215
Charly, that... From a dance perspective,
it shocks me she's this low.

I'd heard about her.

[Kelly] I can't believe it.
I've been dreaming
956
00:49:42,192 --> 00:49:45,237
since I was a little girl
to put on this uniform.
957
00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:48,865
When I go to work, I don't have makeup on.
I have my scrubs on. That's literally it.
958
00:49:49,449 --> 00:49:52,244
When I'm here,
I get to just play a different character.
959

[Charly] I feel like I'm in a dream.

I love it.

It makes it all feel real, in a sense,
962
00:50:00,085 --> 00:50:01,753
and I wanna do it again.
963
00:50:03,088 --> 00:50:07,843
There's a lot of things
that run into a young woman's head
964
00:50:07,926 --> 00:50:12,389
of, you know, body image,
and being your best,
965
00:50:12,472 --> 00:50:16,226
and feeling your best physically,
and mentally, and emotionally.
966
00:50:16,309 --> 00:50:19,396
But putting that uniform on,
967
00:50:19,479 --> 00:50:22,357
I just felt like Wonder Woman.
968
00:50:23,275 --> 00:50:25,110
[Anna Kate] Seeing it on my body
and being like,
969
00:50:25,193 --> 00:50:28,030
"This is something
that could actually happen,"
970
00:50:28,113 --> 00:50:30,240
it's just nerve-racking to think of that
971
00:50:30,323 --> 00:50:32,868
and think of the process
that's still to come.
972
00:50:33,660 --> 00:50:38,623
[Reece] It's so surreal
getting to have the uniform on,
973
00:50:39,416 --> 00:50:45,172
but it's also so hard to imagine, like,
not making it.
974
00:50:45,964 --> 00:50:49,301
Kelli just reminded me.
She was like, "Don't get comfortable."
975
00:50:50,343 --> 00:50:52,054
And I completely agree with her.
976
00:50:52,137 --> 00:50:54,848
I don't wanna get comfortable.
I don't wanna be like, "Oh my gosh."
977
00:50:54,931 --> 00:50:57,601
It is the coolest thing
I've ever experienced,
978
00:50:57,684 --> 00:51:00,896
but I also don't wanna take that
and sit on it too much,
979
00:51:00,979 --> 00:51:04,524

Every day, I need to keep pushing.
