On the last leg of a two-night stint in Dallas, Texas, for her Radical Optimism tour, Dua Lipa brought out a group that’s extra close to home for the Lone Star State: the Dallas Cowboys cheerleading squad.
The longtime franchise—which was introduced to Netflix with a popular 2024 docuseries, AMERICA’S SWEETHEARTS: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders—joined the 30-year-old British pop sensation at the American Airlines Center for a performance of her 2020 song, “Physical.”
The three-time Grammy Award-winning artist also paid homage to the NFL team on stage. She repped an oversized white jersey with her last name printed on its back over black fishnet stockings. Her accessories elevated the sporty-chic look with black gloves, adorned with pearls and chunky gold hardware, along with a stack of statement necklaces. Lipa completed the outfit with tall black leather boots, featuring a high block heel.
After show day, the artist posted several snaps from her night to Instagram, and a handful of team members flooded the comments with sweet messages for the pop star.
“BEST night ever!!!!” Sophia Laufer gushed. “Thank you for having us, a dream🥹😍🫶🏻.”
Camille Sturdivant added, “Truly an honor sharing the stage with you!! Thank you for having us, you’re always welcome in Dallas!! 🤩🤍.”
Lea Tunnell echoed her teammates’ sentiments and also wrote, “Had the time of my life! DCC DUA⭐️✨🫶🏼”
The organization also shared a handful of frames to their own Instagram feed on Thursday, and the artist returned the love. “Too. much. FUN!!! I 💙 you girlieeeees,” Lipa proudly penned.
If it’s not already evident enough, we’re swooning over this adorable meetup, which brought an infectious energy to the latest venue on Lipa’s international tour. Luckily for us, we’ll be seeing lots more of the artist and the Dallas organization in our future.
In June of this year, AMERICA’S SWEETHEARTS debuted its second season on the streaming platform, which included seven new episodes. In August, Netflix also revealed that the program will return for a third season in 2026—though the exact launch date has not been confirmed just yet.
As for Lipa, she’ll be heading to California for her next six shows, starting tomorrow, Oct. 4, in Los Angeles. The artist will spend four nights at Kia Forum (Oct. 4-5, 7-8) and then head north to San Francisco’s Chase Center for a pair of shows (Oct. 11 and 12).
