We’ve been covering the Phoenix Suns dance team auditions since they started earlier this month (slideshow here). So why quit now?
The Suns — who also operate a basketball team tacitly connected with their very popular dance squad — announced the results of their fan-selected squad in a show called Making of the Suns Dancers which aired on KUTP My45 last night. You can see the video here. The team pulled out all the stops this year, even getting a Pussycat Doll to to choreograph routines for the tryouts.
Fans had the chance to look over video and photos profiling each of 32 finalists and vote for the girls they liked the best on Suns.com. The project succeeded in drumming up traffic for the site, drawing more than 550,000 page views, up 48 percent from last year. The results of all that are here.
No word on whether the team has any hope of clinch a playoff spot this year.
Will you step up to support New Times this year?
At New Times, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $17,250 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $30,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of New Times, now’s the time to give back.
