Denver Nuggets Hipster Girlz

Do you have what it takes to be a Hipster?

Are you a “HUGE” Nuggets Fan?

Do you like to dance, shake a tail-feather, and work it on the dance floor?

The Hipster Girlz Dance Team is looking for big and beautiful women to join the team! Auditions for this year's squad will be held on Monday, September 10th at 5:00 PM in the Pepsi Center Grand Atrium.

Join us as the Denver Nuggets put together their first ever Hipster Girlz Dance Team. If you weigh over 160 lbs. and have rhythm, please send your photo and contact information to:

Pepsi Center
Attn: Lynette Nickelson
1000 Chopper Circle
Denver, CO 80204

You can also e-mail your photo and contact information to lnickelson@pepsicenter.com.

The Hipster Girlz will party, jump, and twist center court at the Denver Nuggets home games. They will perform a set number of dance routines during the regular season and at home playoff games. They will also perform with the Denver Nuggets Dancers and Nuggets Cheerleaders.

Note: I don't agree with some of the wording in this post (directly from the Nuggets website) or weight requirements high or low for any team (160 pounds is by no means big or "huge" for the average American woman). BUT I do believe that beautiful and committed women of all shapes and sizes should have the opportunity to dance and perform. I hope this program will allow ladies that don't fit into the stereotypical mold of professional dance and cheer the opportunity to pursue their entertainment dreams. I look forward to seeing healthy body shapes on the floor as role models to young women that talent and beauty have no size boundary. - Belle
