Cowboys Cheerleader Facing Costume ControversyARLINGTON

A Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader has brought some controversy to herself following the discovery of some Halloween photos on her Facebook page that some say are inappropriate.

The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders are the sweethearts of America's Team, yet the actions of one of the cheerleaders off the field have drawn scrutiny and criticism.

Second-year cheerleader Whitney Isleib reportedly attended a friend's Halloween party dressed as rapper Lil' Wayne, who is black.

Pictures of Isleib, who is white, were posted on her Facebook page. The photos were leaked to a sports blog, and that's where the controversy started.

Fans we spoke with at Sunday's Cowboys game against the Seahawks were mixed in their reactions.

"If she wasn't a Dallas cheerleader would it really matter? It's Halloween, you know. you get to go how you want to go" says fan Laura Pyhrr.

"I don't agree with it, but she wore Lil' Wayne and there she is. but I don't think it's the best costume" says Martisha Francis.

One thing most everyone agreed on was anyone representing 'America's Team' should exercise better judgment.

"I'm assuming you would hold yourself up to a higher standard - especially if you're playing for the Cowboys. But wow, not much I can say about that - it speaks for itself" says fan Richard Vasquez.

No one from the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders or the team would officially comment, but a team spokesman told us the team is aware of the situation and addressing it internally.

Isleib was also not available for comment following Sunday's game.

Who gives a fuck, it's Halloween, give me a fucking break. She can do whatever the fuck she want's. The only thing racist about it, is racist black people find it offensive if a white person dresses up like a black star.

Not racist to me. Not the best costume idea and not a good idea to post on her FB page. But not racist.

Journalists should be put in the stocks for a day for trying to drum up reasons for people to be offended.
When I am king, it will be so.
