Saturday morning 73 bright shining faces eagerly awaited entrance to Cowboys Stadium to begin the final round of auditions to earn a coveted invitation into this year’s training camp. 46 candidates, 27 veterans, but ultimately only 44 spots to fill… Who would be the chosen ones? How many hopefuls would be lucky enough to make a second or third attempt at beating the odds? Would this year be their year to finally wear the star spangled uniform?

Fur, feathers, glitter galore and an assortment of props including an ice cream cart, a switchboard, cages, cupcakes, and an array of choreography kept the judges engaged and entertained throughout the morning. Music selections included everything from Broadway show tunes to Lady Gaga, while costumes ranged from Disney themes to Barbie. The veterans especially outdid themselves with props, costumes and clever lyrics, leaving nothing to chance.

After a quick costume change into their performance outfits, all the candidates sat down to a 71 question test. Following a short break and a chance to “fluff and puff”, the hopefuls and veterans were led to the field to perform their sideline combination and kickline routines. Seated in the stadium, the judges evaluated the group performances on the Jumbo Tron where no figure flaw or missed step went unnoticed on the 90 ft. high definition screen.

The names that were finally called included multiple Meagans, Kaitlins, and Brittanys, and not surprisingly, all 27 veterans. Routine traditions and superstitions aside, some of your favorites will be back for another year, along with 17 promising rookie candidates. This week these ladies begin the long arduous journey to wearing the star spangled uniform of America’s Sweethearts while CMT once again films every twist and turn of events for season 5 of Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders: Making The Team 5.
