Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader Wears Blackface for Halloween

[glitterkittyy]

Although I could certainly never do them, I'm always surprised at how amazed people are at jump splits. All the local HS drill teams require them..my D was doing them as a freshman, and last week, the whole varsity line (60+ girls) did them at the end of their kick dance...to many "oohs" and "ahs" in the crowd.

I have pains just watching them do it let alone trying it myself.

please let the tag fairy see this.....


As to the OP...absolutely NOT black face. She was dressed as a celebrity (and not even in a mocking way!). Let it go Cowboys.

I agree with a lot of the posters. Her costume was of a celebrity not blackface.

My personal feelings....no big deal. No different than if one of her African American cheerleader teammates dressed up as Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz and used make-up to make her skin look lighter.

If someone dresses with with a pointy hat, put a wart on their nose, and rode a broom around on Halloween, would that be racist against witches????

Nothing to get your panties up in a wad over!!!

I totally agree! Once my daughter was a black cat....no offense to black cats anywhere....geez!

Don't you think that if the management of the DCC sent a memo telling the girls that they could only dress as someone of their own race, that would be seen as rasicm?
