An Amish woman quite expertly recreated one of the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders’ dance moves, and is going viral online.
The Cowboys’ dancers have been front and center lately since they are featured in a new Netflix series.
The show has seen several cheerleaders trend online since, with the “Thunderstruck” routine taking on a new streak of popularity – so much so, an Amish woman has been doing the rounds online for pulling it off.
“What happens behind the barn stays behind the barn,” read the caption to the original TikTok video, which has since been deleted.
Fortunately, it found its way to X/Twitter before being taken down and can be seen below:

She’s definitely going to have to try out now.
The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader Job Is Not As Glamorous As It Looks
On another note, the Dallas Cowboys have been taking heat as the show exposed them for how little they pay their cheerleaders.
“A scene from the Netflix reality show America’s Sweethearts went viral after one of the Cowboys’ cheerleaders said they make the same amount of money as fast food workers and substitute teachers,” a column from Sports Illustrated published earlier this month notes.
“Many of the cheerleaders have two jobs to keep up with bills, while others aren’t able to work for long stretches because of the injuries that occur while performing on game days.”
Our Amish cheerleader is probably better off staying where she is.
VIDEO: Cameras Caught The Incredibly Sad Reactions Of Duke Star Kyle Filipowski & His Girlfriend While Leaving The NBA Draft After Going Undrafted

While Wednesday night went well for thirty new draft picks, some were left disappointed. One such player is Duke’s, Kyle Filipowski, who had high hopes of finding his new home in the NBA. Instead, he went back empty-handed.
The 7-foot offensive center was present in the Barclays Center green room with his nearby ones waiting for his name to be called out. However, in the pool of talented players, Filipowski couldn’t make the spot. This does not mean he has missed the opportunity this year. The 20-year-old might not have made it into the first round, but the second one is still left.
One of the saddest moments from the event shared on X (formerly known as Twitter) was Filipowski hugging his girlfriend. The young athlete looked disheartened by the situation while she tried to console him.
The Blue Devils’ standout put up 16.4 points, 8.3 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game in the 2023-2024 season. Filipowski did display his shooting skills, but that wasn’t enough for the Duke man to engage in a contract with any franchise.
The short video soon circulated on the internet, reaching the NBA community, who didn’t hold back from reacting to his mourning moment.
