Wow… just wow. - Video lives up to the title of the dance.
I went to the wrong High School…
But yeah, you gotta wonder what the coach/manager was thinking. “I know, I’ll have them dance like they’re strippers!! That’ll be well-received. Genius, I’ll be promoted for sure.”
I don’t really think it was that risque, but there sure was plenty of bad ‘dancing’ to go around. Seriously, had those girls ever had any training or rehearsing done in their entire lives? :eek:
I get the impression from some of the comments on the website hosting the video that this school has some really serious problems. I think they may actually be on their own re training and routines.
Apparently the County school system also lost it’s accreditation
OMG!@#$, what’s going to happen?
The question is, how did the people who complained KNOW that the cheerleaders where dancing like strippers?
Dad: Those girls at the game were dancing like strippers!
Mom: How do you know?
Dad: Because that’s how “Honey” down at the Crazy Horse dan… I mean that’s what I heard. :smack:
Yeah, I kept waiting for the really risque part. I didn’t think it was that bad from a sluttiness perspective (for lack of a better term) but dude, maybe they should have been disbanded just because they sucked so much. At least one of those girls looked like she completely forgot the routine in multiple places. That was really, really awful.
Spread eagle crotch shots and bump and grind stripper moves are de rigeur for HS cheer leading teams these days?
It looked like the chairs were used more as props than as…a lap dancing routine.
Yeah, I’ve just now been catching up on some of the comments. That’s really awful that they’ve lost their accreditation, but I’ve seen people their age dance better after just watching something off MTV. It looks like they weren’t even really trying, just getting out there and acting silly.
I dunno, I’m not saying it was super appropriate, but the only part that crossed into really outrageous for me was when they squatted down in front of the dudes sitting in chairs.
OK, having typed that out, I now see where some of the outrage is coming from. I guess I was just expecting… I don’t know, actual garment removal, or simulated sex, or something.
My thoughts exactly. I didn’t see anything particularly “slutty” so much as boring and lame. Yeah, the guys in the chairs and some of the moves were questionable but I was certainly expecting something a lot more than what was described.
How kind of the news outlet to include a video link so we can all check out their terribly wrong behavior.
Inappropriate when they enlist the guys. Not too different from what the Backstreet Boys were doing up 'til that point (though they lacked the boy band’s coordination). Or Pussycat Dolls. Or Girlicious. Or other stars of the small screen and record charts, who are often balked at but, in the grand scheme of things, rarely critiqued for what they’re doing. At least not in the halls of a high school.
Seriously.
Not to mention the video appeared to be shot from some 500 yards away, so being able to see much of anything was right out. And the audio was even worse, just this grating noise that sounded like something out of a bad 70s science fiction movie. The whole thing definately rates an “I’m still flaccid” on the Dirty Old Man Scale[sup]TM[/sup].
I didn’t have time to get offended I was too busy busting a gut watching the girl in the middle at the back; I don’t think dancing is her calling. She did OK for the first 30 seconds…
I also can’t see what all the fuss is about. If they’d at least been dressed… less… then I could maybe see some outrage. But they were wearing a lot of clothing. Dressed like that, doing stripper moves isn’t provocative. At least, to me. America has become the knee-jerk capital of the world, and it really depresses me sometimes.
IMO a reprimand was in order solely for calling themselves “sluts”. This is acceptable in HS “sports” now? What was the “coach” thinking? I didn’t bother to watch the video–I see enough teen girls acting badly as it is, I don’t need to see more.
Oh rigs, you gotta watch it. It’s one of those things that are so hilariously bad that you can’t believe anyone passes it off as legit. Check it out and I promise you’ll get at least one laugh out of today.
A couple of those girls clearly have a career ahead of them on a dance pole. A couple clearly do not.
I don’t think THEY called themselves Sluts…that was the title that got attached to the video by whomever posted it on YouTube. And yes, the dancing was lame, but still very inappropriate for girls that age, at a school function, in front of parents. Add to that their lack of skills (which in this case was a relief…if they were good at those moves I’d really worry) and I can see where the complaints come in.ust becasue they can watch this stuff on videos doesn’t mean we want our young daughters doing that in fronmt of a crowd of cheering boys.
