There's no question that when 55-year old Sharon Simmons walks by, heads will turn.  But does she have the right stuff to become a Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader?  Apparently so. 

When Sharon was in her early 20's, she dreamed of becoming a D.C.C. As life likes to do, it took a turn with a child and careeer. She never gave up hope though. And for the past 30 years, she's been involved in fitness training and modeling...even writing a book. Now, she's taking the plunge and going after her dream of joining the squad. Right now, the oldest cheerleader in the NFL is 42-year old Laura Vikmanis with the Bengals.

We wish you luck, Sharon. With the way the Cowboys have been performing the past few years, you might be the team's bright spot this season!
