Sasha Agent Marrier was a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader in 2010 and 2011. Before becoming a DCC, Sasha danced for the NBA’s Sacramento Kings for four years, while attending the University of California, Davis. During her rookie year as a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader, she was told that she made the team right before taking the squad photo. The candidates were under the impression that Kelli and Judy were still making decisions, but they broke the amazing news right before they walked on set to take the iconic photo.

Melissa Wallace had the honor of being a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader from 2014-2017. She is originally from Las Vegas and ventured to Texas to pursue a college education in engineering at SMU. At age 21 following her junior year of college, Melissa auditioned for DCC and was one of the nine rookies to grace AT&T Stadium that year.   Melissa had an array of memorable stories to share. One that stuck out in particular was the first time she tried on the iconic DCC uniform. She said the uniform fitting was the first time she

While Becky may have only spent one season as a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader, there is no doubting that she had a season packed full of amazing experiences and lasting memories. Becky is originally from Tyler, Texas, and made the team in 1975. She was only 20 years old when she successfully balanced all DCC-related commitments with commuting to and from Baylor University in Waco, TX where she was a full-time law student. This alone demonstrates the determination, dedication, and unmatched time management skills that Becky possessed from

Adrianna was not your typical Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader. She grew up in buns and tutus in the world of ballet, and still to this day is referred to as “The Ballerina”. Her journey began while furthering her education at Midwestern State University, studying communications with a ballet scholarship. While casually flipping through her TV she noticed an ad for the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders auditions. So what did she do? She went for it and thought to herself, “I doubt I’ll make it, but it was something out

I had the pleasure to interview Kim Stevens. Kim was a DCC for 3 seasons (84, 85, 86) and cheered with Kelli McGonagill Finglass. Kim was the youngest on the team when she made it at the age of 18. A fun fact Kim shared is when she made it to training camp, she was actually still in high school. They announced it on the intercom during announcements at her high school and she was so embarrassed! After her first try, Kim was put on show group

I had the honor of interviewing Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader Alumni, Shelly Bennett, who was a cheerleader from 1986 to 1988. Shelly talked about her time on the team like it was yesterday, and speaks so highly of her experiences and directors. While she had so many once in a lifetime opportunities on the team, she was most thankful for the lifelong friendships she made with her DCC sisters.  Shelly did not always know she wanted to audition to become one of America’s Sweethearts. In fact, she heard about

Jayne Phillip’s journey to becoming a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader was different from most individuals who have fulfilled the same dream. She had a very successful modeling career growing up, after signing with an agency in New Orleans at the age of 14. She also appeared in Aerosmith’s music video for “Rag Doll” filmed on Bourbon Street in 1988. She always aspired to be a dancer, but never had any formal dance training. She explained to me that she was unable to take dance classes growing up, so

Malia was born on the island of Oahu, Hawaii, on an US Air Force Base. Her parents, who served in the Air Force, relocated a few times before settling in Bedford, Texas. Malia attended school in the Bedford area before making the move to the west coast to attend Stanford University. While at Stanford, she danced as a member of the Dollies, traveling and performing at all types of sporting events. Malia was also a member of various performance arts groups while in school, training in hip

I had the most wonderful pleasure and honor of interviewing DCC alumni, Traci Tipping who loved her experience with the Cowboys. It was obvious that her heart and soul was put into her time as a member of the squad, and will forever be one of her most cherished memories. She embodies every quality about a DCC: strength, confidence, inner and outer beauty, and a heart of gold leaving everyone she encounters feeling inspired and loved.    Traci was raised in Killeen, TX. She was introduced to dance at

A Texas girl through-and-through, D’Laine Gutmann grew up in Beaumont, a small city in southeastern Texas. Beaumont is known as the ‘Spindletop Boomtown’ for the oil found at the Spindletop Hill which sparked an oil boom in Texas that continues today. Although it was less than a 5-hour drive to the old Texas Stadium in Irving, D’Laine had never attended a professional football game before. Little did she know that her first football game ever would be the opening home game of the Dallas Cowboys in 1991,
