'Cheer' reality TV star Morgan Simianer performed an absolutely iconic cheer routine at her wedding reception
- Morgan Simianer, who was featured in Netflix's cheerleading doc series "Cheer," performed a cheer routine at her wedding.
- A TikTok of the dance — complete with barefoot stunts in formal gowns — went viral.
Morgan Simianer, the 25-year-old dancer best-known for her involvement in Netflix's 2020 hit documentary series "Cheer," performed a cheerleading routine at her wedding reception this weekend.
A TikTok of the routine, uploaded by Simianer on May 31, has since racked up more than 2.2 million views.
In it, Simianer and her friends (including former Navarro College cheer teammates) and bridal party danced to Ciara's "1, 2 Step." In what looked like an extremely athletic swing dance ("It's giving 'Bring It On: All or Nothing,'" viewers commented), men twirled and lifted their partners across the dance floor.
Shortly after the song began, Simianer appeared in a white skort and tank to lead her friends through the routine. In the end, the group lifted Simianer to the top of a pyramid — just shy of an extravagant chandelier — and she gestured to show her wedding ring to a cheering crowd.
Viewers loved it. "Not only is this iconic," one viewer wrote, "but doing these stunts barefoot... TALENT."
Others joked about her wedding planner needing to search for venues with the tallest ceilings and the best liability insurance.
Simianer, who appeared in seasons one and two of the popular series "Cheer," was a central focus of the show as it documented the award-winning Navarro College Bulldogs cheerleading squad.
When she married Stone Burleson at a Texas mansion on May 28, she invited many of the people involved in "Cheer," she exclusively told "People."
"I feel like it's a whole family reunion with all of us," Simianer told the publication ahead of the big day. "There'll be people from the Netflix docuseries, the producer of 'Cheer.' People that went on tour with me for Cheer Live. We have just so many people."
Fans of the series also loved the unexpected trip down memory lane: "Seeing all my fav cheer people in one place is doing something for me that I didn't know I needed," wrote one.
