yes she will.

yes she will.

yes she will.

Never thought I'd be lusting after a 55 Year old…but I could do that…

Even if she doesn't make it I will say this much. She is in damn good shape for someone her age and she doesn't look like this is 50+ at all. Not only that she is correct. Its about the journey in all of it so if she doesn't make the cut she at least tried out for it and she can look back knowing she did all she could.
Good luck!

Very impressive!

Very impressive!

No, sorry, she's a babe and sounds like a great lady, I even hope she gets in. But, if success means you can still shake it for men then it does seem degrading. I don't like 22 year old cheerleaders.

Good for you Sharron!

No, no no no. Women just can't be whatever they want. Sorry old lady.

Well she surely has the implants for the job!

dallas is a good team my fave team to be exact and one of the best teams in the NFL

yes yes yes yes.

I think she's really, really hot for her age, but maybe too old for the job.

wait till you're 55

Good for her! She looks great for her age!

Historically, Dallas is one of the more successful franchises, however I wouldn't put them on the short list of best teams in the NFL right now.

God bless her for trying… Best of luck!

Nope, I wouldn't do her.

What an inspiring and motivaing story. Hope she makes the squad! She certainly would represent them well.

I love the look on the girl behind her.

AT THE END OF THE DAY, YOUR STILL 55. TIME TO LIVE WITH IT…………CHEERS.

WOW! Id do her.

I think she has all the moves I've seen from the younger girls, and doubt anyone would notice the difference if she makes it.

Yes…duh….they are idiots if they don't keep her…..what a great example she is of what you can do if you put your mind to it…..anything you want! Also I bet they'll sell more tickets cause people will want to come and see her live!

I think its great that she looks like that at 55. alot of us can only be so lucky. good luck.

There will be NO DRAMA! yeah! Grats Sharon on being happy!

she looks fantastic! I hope she makes the squad and good luck.

whitemack lets see you get up there and do it then, u idiot.

She's far more fit than many of the girls who try out. Hope age discrimination doesn't work against her. So what if she doesn't have the perfectly smooth skin of a 20 yr old, she looks fabulous and obviously has the capability. Her wisdom and experience in life, as well as her nutritional know-how would be a great asset to the entire squad.

You're obviously very young. Fifty really is the new thirty. She has the capability, and is far more fit than many of the girls who audition.

Sure, why not. Who cares. I love how women love to degrade themselves for us and call it empowering themselves. Yay feminism!

Yes, and so what about the wrinkles? She'll be cheering along with however many other women are on the squad, and will blend in nicely. Besides, she far more fit than many of them.

I'm 55. I live with it. I wouldn't go back to thirty for anything! I hope she makes it. She's be an asset to the squad, and is far more fit than many of the girls who audition. Probably also has a lot less drama, too.

She's more fit than many of the girls who audition, and probably comes with a lot less drama due to her experience, maturity and solid self confidence.

I don't think she will fit their "stereotype" and in the end that's probably a good thing because it's a tacky gig.

I know its a great story and all but she is just a little to old.

hope she makes it.

What a bow wow. Wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole. Even if I had one.

Usually people who say stupid degrading comments about someone's appearance are either fat, ugly or just plain ignorant. Rather than work on their appearance, they have to hate on those who actually do. One of the posters on this thread just proved my point. So sad.

is that the New Jersey Tan lady?

is that the New Jersey Tan lady?

Alright, I get it. She's fifty and she's in great shape. But did any of you watch the video? Her rhythm is about as great as a sea lion with tourettes. Like, wtf.

awww I saw the picture with the leathers and thought eeek! however…saw her perform in the pink outfit and listened to her story and thought….yeah! good luck xx.

ouch not nice

55 years and Looking Real Damn Good! She has worked hard for this–Give her a shot! Why Not!

Go get it , Sharon!

I guess that we are all measured by our dreams; and I hope that mine are worthy. Is her self-esteem so lacking that she seeks this as worthy? She is talented and motivated, and yet she needs this?

I never knew Richard Simmons has such a great-looking wife. Seriously, this is a very good antidote to age-bigotry.

Yes I may be young but I also have watched Making the team for the DCC since its first season! Her kick was just not high enough for their kick line! I applaud her for trying out though!

Too weird…

We all know at the end of the day.. she won't make it. LOL! No fairy tales in real life. This will end bad. Inspiring? Yes. Dream come true? No.

That's why you don't have kids when you're that young. You basically give your life away.

Being a cheerleader in Texas is a real thrill for the people who do it. I don't see her as having low self esteem. Do you or I see much value in it? Perhaps not, but it is a very different culture.

See, it doesn't totally suck to be 55. Good for her. No way she'll pass for a 20 yr old (and she never said she would) but I think "we" look pretty damn good for mid 50's. You think it will never come around but those #s add up in a hurry.

Break a leg, babe! (But not a hip).

Is that why you didnt have kids, so you can go after your cheerleading dreams? lol

She would do better auditioning as a football.

She would do better auditioning as a football.

Good for her!
and eew.

ikr!!!! LOL!!!

I think its FANTASTIC! My theory is that youre never too old to persue your dreams! My aunt always wanted to be a nurse and bc she chose to be a mommy first that dream got postponed but she got her kids raised, and both of them through college and at 55yrs old she went to school to become a nurse! And she did it! I'm so proud of her! I'm 24yrs old and decided I wanted a family I got married have two baby girls and you know I'm not the least bit concerned about college right now bc if God willing later on down the road I could always go and its thanks to the women out there who show us other ladies out there that its never tooo late to persue your dream and if you don't make it at least you tried! You Go Girl! And thanks for the inspiration!

GILF!!!!

good for her lol. why should people stop doing what they dream of because of their age. What you can't do anything because you just had a few more birthdays and candles on the cake then most people?

I think she is a good role model but I don't think she should be on the cheering squad. Shes just not an exact idea of the eye candy I would want to look at a game.

She looks awesome! I wish my abs looked half as good as hers! Way to show people no matter how old you are, never give up on your dreams. Awesome!

Reality, that would be an amazing thing to see, considering the average age of attendees at games is actually around 40 to 60 I think it would be very appropriate, but the media being what it is they will probably not do the right thing, its a far too politically correct world.

she stinks, cant dance and a little man looking in the face. go play bridge, beat it.

She is hot! I think she should make it. She is older than the people judging her and they can't even do what she is doing. I watch her anytime!

I will say she has worked hard for her body..but come on..she doesn't have the moves…and her skin looks funny when she dances…i do think its great that she chases her dream even at 55 but I also think there alot of women that are afraid to get old..and keep trying to live their lives as a 20 something year old..your 55 and look great..but come on.

She has no chance…Im sorry but its the truth. I think most men would rather see a 20 year old over a 55 year old. And I'm sorry but that accent makes me want to rip my ears off.

It's the Dallas Cowboys, they don't need help selling tickets. And no, nobody would come to watch her cheer.

Beckie Clifton 50 is not the new 30 sorry. Learn to live with your age. When I'm 55 i'm not going to try and compete against 20 year olds.

I could care less about her age, as long as he can keep up with the dance and choreography, that should be the only thing that matters. If she can't, whether 25 or 55, she should go.

Three very long and loud cheers for Sharon Simmons for not allowing the fact that she's middle-aged keep her from pursuing her dream to be a cheerleader! And here I previously thought that Laura Vikmanis was the oldest cheerleader in America. Sharon, I raise my glass to you for being the latest lady to prove that, to quote the title of the great Dara Torres' book, "Age Is Just A Number." Keep workin' it, girl!

Wow, I'm impressed. I'm not that much older than she is, but if I was voting for her, she would get a YES vote.

First, kudos to her. She's in better shape than a lot of younger girls and probably much healthier. However, if you have ever watching the CMT show about the DCC, you know that they do NOT pick older women (as in over 40). Ever. The three head judges (two are former DCC) let anybody audition. But they seem to get a kick out of making fun of them afterward on camera, which always makes me wince. So while it would be awesome if she did make the final cut (which is hard even if you are young, gorgeous and fit), I will be shocked.

Becky, you must have been stationed at CASTLE once upon a time. and at MAXWELL too, Never was asssigned to either, enjoyed VANDENBERG, RAMSTEIN, and bases that were closed more than 35 years ago. Have a wonderful day..

I think this is great- but at the end of the day–your still 55 live with it-

Yes! You go Girl!

With it being the Cowboys, I am surprised the headline isn't "Jerry Jones puts 55 year-old Grandmother at starting Quarterback and Offensive Coordinator."

get to old ass woman out of there, i mean really are you kidding me! what nut wants some old grandma dancing ewwww.

I think it's great she's doing that…there are millions of men in her generation that watch football..OK so… why not have a cheerleader her age? There are people in their 20s, 30s or 40s that don't have a physique and stamina like hers, so age shouldn't be a factor for the cut, because clearly she is fit. BOOOOoooo to all those who are exposing their ageism. LOL

Yes, she looks very worried and threatened.. LOL

Yes, she looks very worried and threatened.. LOL

Come on! Grow up! There comes a time when a person needs to grow old gracefully. I like what grace Slick once said abour how rediculous old people look on rock and roll stages.

A bad case of old age vanity!

AGREED! I root for the Redskins and ANYONE playing Dallas!

Itnice to know that people can follow their dreams…. Age should not matter, she has the looks and the ATTITUDE for it.
I just don't like the fact the People compair you age to your job.

wow The girl moves good too. I say shes in.

Darn..I thought her name was Debbie…

WOW! I am lovin' this story…I bet she makes it! GO SHARON! "Never lose sight of your dreams"!

Kyle Thornton Then that's your loss. It's people like you that drive women like her to keep going. 55 does not mean she has to STOP living her life. She can and is doing what she wants. AND if you'll notice … she didn't ask for your immature feeble minded approval.

whitemack … get cha head out cha ass fool. Women CAN and ARE doing and being whatever they want. And there isn't a damn thing you can do about it! LOL!!!

Amazing! Awesome! Spectacular! She's the poster diva for females at any age who CAN AND WILL DO WHATEVER THEY DAMN WELL PLEASE AND… look pretty damn hawt in the process!

NEWS FLASH FOR YA, KYLE, YOU CAME TO THIS SITE TO WATCH A 55 YEAR OLD CHEERLEADER…..

Lisa Mahon Then i guess you like pulling for a bunch of losers…….

Lisa Mahon Then i guess you like pulling for a bunch of losers…….

Sue Schaffrath Yes, but I didn't pay $100 for a ticket either. This was free…

It is actually none of our business this is between her and her family. I wish her well and hope it ends where she is happy with the outcome.

I disagree, she should leave the cheerleading to the younger set. No matter how good she thinks she looks or looks with her fake tan, she is still 55 and facts are facts. She is a 55 year old in denial.

Oh PLEASE! Yes, she looks fit for her age, but she is still her age! Time to embrace your senior citizen status and be a role model for all 55 plus, but at the end of the day when you stand out there with the other 20 somethings, you will still look 55!

she is 55…i know women who are 23 and I wouldn't dare take them down the street, even at night…and I look at this lady who looks excellent at 55…i give a standing ovation to you…you look GREAT…i hope my wife (future tense…lol) looks as good as you do at that age…

well I have to give her credit, she is going after her dream, if she does not make the cut she did her best, and she looks awesome for 55, good luck.

Wow. How bad do you think you're supposed to look at 55?

there are also 22 yr. old male cheerleaders.

Great body, pretty face, just not slutty enough to make this squad I fear…

She could make the Raiders team!
