Emily and Haley

### Other

Note: Emily and Haley are identical twin sisters who try out together. They are being grouped together here, because the show makes virtually no effort to treat them as separate candidates, and it is extremely hard to distinguish between the two in most shots

## **Biography**

### **Season 8**

**(8.1)**

* They both want to be Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders. Pursuing the dream of being a DCC together is just something that they’ve always wanted to do. They both had to overcome scoliosis. They had to wear back braces until their junior year in high school. They feel so blessed and fortunate to not have to get surgery. And everything is in place and staying, and they’re good right now. They’re so excited to be here, and they wouldn’t trade it for the world.

## **Confessionals**

Total: 18

Season 8: 15 (9th most between the two of them)

Season 9: 3

Note: A majority of their confessionals have both of them

### **Season 8**

**(8.1)**

* It’s very surreal seeing the Cowboys stadium. It’s amazing.
* Biography
* This is all starting to sink in. It’s pretty crazy that we’re here. We’re warming up, and auditions are about to start very, very soon.
* We’re so excited to see if our numbers are going to be on the board or not, so our fingers are crossed.
* Our numbers were on the board. I think this is definitely one step closer to making our dream come true. I feel like this is already such a great accomplishment.
* [Semifinals] If we don’t make it, we have to go back to Vegas, but we’re really hoping to prove that we deserve a spot on the team. We’re just going to give it everything we’ve got today.
* [*Haley only, incorrectly spelled as “Hayley”*] The stadium is ginormous.
* I definitely feel pressure right now. The kickline I feel really confident about. It’s the dance that I’m really, really worried about.
* [*Haley only*] The judges come out, and I am just instantly… You are just, like, “Oh my gosh.” I want them to write “yes” down on their paper for me.
* Today, I think that my sister and I didn’t do the best that we could. I think the nerves got the best of us.
* Right now, we’re just waiting, hoping that our numbers and names will be called.
* [*Haley only*] If my number is called, it would be a dream come true. I mean, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity, and I’m freaking out.
* If my number’s called and my sister’s isn’t, I’ll be so sad that she didn’t make it, but I know that she’ll be there for me 100%.
* [Not invited to finals] I’m just so upset with myself. How could you let yourself just let your dream slip through your fingers?
* This is the end of our journey today. I know lots of girls have to re-try out, and then they make it next year, so we’re definitely not going to give up.

### **Season 9**

**(9.1)**

* [Both talking] We’re twins and/ Who doesn’t want twins?/ And we’re fun./ Double the trouble./ Double trouble.
* [*Emily only*] When the judges walk out, it’s just automatic, like, you just get nervous all of a sudden.
* [Not invited to finals] I think we’re just a little disappointed just because we thought the whole twin idea would be something unique and awesome to the team, but maybe another team would love to have pretty twins.

## **Commentary**

### **Season 8**

**(8.1)**

* [Preliminaries deliberations] Haley. – K/ Oh, she’s one of the twins? – J/ I gave this one a yes, but I don’t think I gave the other one a yes. – K
* They’re pretty, they can move. They’re twins, and it impressed the judges.
* [Semifinals] She’s dancing her way out of my “yes” into my “maybe” – K/ I don’t know that she’s any better than a “no.” – J
* She looked pretty on that end move, didn’t she? – J
* [Semifinals deliberations] I don’t think there’s that much to correct on their looks. They’re adorable./ She was really pretty. She stuck out. This is really unique with them being twins. This is an interesting concept for us. – Charlotte/ I think it’s a great personal touch./ When she knew her own dance, she was good. I thought she was a definite yes. When she tried to learn your dance, she was lost./ Would you like them if they could dance?/ Yes!
