Toronto

Canada's National Ballet School found its fifth floor taken over on Sunday by a group of performers not dancing to Swan Lake, but rather J-Lo's "Ain't Your Mama."

More than 100 hopefuls were auditioning to become Toronto Argonauts cheerleaders for next season. They were competing for 22 coveted spots.

Jorie Brown, head coach of the Argos Cheerleaders, said the "competition is fierce" and the CFL team was looking for "great ambassadors for our football club, great dancers, great performers and game-day energy."

The girls learned a piece of choreography in the morning to J-Lo's "Ain't Your Mama" and then performed the dance in front of five judges.

Brown said the cheer squad will be announced on Wednesday, March 22 on Argonauts.ca.
