Latinas Dominate '50 Hottest Cheerleaders' List

By Michael Lopez

Rah! Rah! Rah! The sports blog Bleacher Report has organized its list of the "50 Hottest Cheerleading Teams" and we couldn't be happier with the results. The Top 20 squads alone include a ton of Latin pom pom girls hand-picked from all across the country.

Topping Bleacher Report’s "Cheerleader" list was (surprise, surprise) the Dallas Cowboys' squad. Perhaps the most legendary rah rah girls in the world of sports, they are talented, gorgeous, and often times go on to illustrious Hollywood careers. One of our favorite blue and white alums is Sarah Shahi. The part-Spanish beauty danced for the team in the late 90’s and is now the star of her own USA Network series.

The #2 squad on the "Hottest Cheerleader" list is chock full of Hispanic beauties. Miami's Dolphins Girls' roster has a ton of talented Latinas and a few notable alumni too. The current host of Primer Impacto, Pamela Silva Conde, once danced for the squad, as did popular south Florida DJ, Suzy Tavarez.

In the basketball realm, the Laker Girls made #5 on the list. And this ranking wasn't just for their looks, it was also for their signature moves. Once headed by dance queen Paula Abdul, this legendary squad has one of the most diverse rosters in the league, with gorgeous ladies of African-American, Asian, and Spanish descent. Contrary to popular belief, Kobe Bryant’s wife Vanessa was never on the team, but did meet her hubby dancing at a music video shoot.

The Miami Heat Dancers may not have any famous faces at the moment, but they definitely have one of the best cheerleading sites on the web. Bleacher Report’s #8 ranking is right on the money, especially after watching the videos and photo galleries these ladies are starring in. Click over and you can even peruse clips of the squad's sexy bikini shoot in Barbados!

And, in the soccer world, L.A.’s Chivas Girls are tough to beat. They placed higher than any other fútbol cheerleading squad and it’s easy to see why. The Chivas Girls are primarily Latina and have an amazing tight-fitting uniform! Browse on over to their site and you can access wallpapers, videos, and tons of interesting tidbits about the girls. What's Brittney R.’s favorite food? Why homemade Mexican cuisine of course!

Kudos to Bleacher Report for prepping such an incredible list and thanks again the lovely ladies on the field, who deserve a lot of the credit for keeping the crowds on their feet!
