The Quest for the Cupcake
Hello, my name is Danny Higgins I am one the owners and performers of Stunners Entertainment. I grew up in Naperville a suburb of Chicago and moved to NJ when I was 11. When I found out we would be performing in Chicago the first thing that came to mind was food (and of course all my family that lives here). Everything from the famous Portillo's hotdogs to my unending quest for a cupcake that I've been yearning for has all come to fruition right here in Chicago.
Along with tumbling and performing for people, another thing I like to do is listen to my favorite radio show, Ron and Fez. I have been a fan for over ten years and never miss a show. Ron Bennington in my opinion is the funniest man alive and has his own cup cake at Molly's Cup Cakes in Chicago. Ron and Fez fans from all over come to Chicago to pay homage to taste this culinary perfection, and so naturally I did the same. Below is my quest for the Ron Bennington cupcake...take a look to see what happens:

The Windy City
Hey y’all.....my name is Corrinne and I’m here on the GAP holiday cheer tour. We’ve traveled from NYC to Chicago and have just finished our first day of performances here. Yesterday, we started out at an elementary school where all the kids were excited to see us do our stunts, flips, and tricks.
Here is a picture of us and the drummers at the school:
After, we had an amazing time marching down the well- known Michigan Ave. and putting on exciting and high flying performances. We even made an appearance at the GAP store for all the Gap fans! Below are more pictures of what our day entailed:

En Route to Chi-Town
Hi Everyone! This is Baker wanting to fill our fans in on what has been happening on the Holiday Cheer tour for the GAP featuring the talented group from Stunners Entertainment. So far we have covered every hot spot in NYC including Times Square, Central Park, Today Show, and Good Morning America.
It has been amazing to see the crowds gather around as the drummers start their beats and we launch a girl in the air like a flair saying, "come check this out". Throughout the performance we have been throwing out free sweaters and discount cards to the crowd. It is a good feeling when you see the faces of the thankful people when handing them a sweater.
Today is the second day on the road. Last night we stopped in Cleveland, OH for the night. Bright and early this morning we continued our journey to Chicago where we will do another series of performances. It is going to be a long trip on the road going from NYC to LA but no need to worry about us - our big red plaid tour bus is like a rolling 5-star hotel. Check out the pictures:
Chillin in the front lounge:
Drummers in the back lounge:
Bunks to the left and right, where we can nap:
To wrap it up I want to let you know that I am doing a New York to Chicago pizza challenge to see which I think is best and the results should be in soon so stay in close touch to find out.
Last I want to give a shout out to the OCE Cobras of Zanesville OH!

Our Adventure...
As I see it - this blog and company is an ongoing adventure. Here you will read about the perspectives from all of our talented individuals. Some exciting, some scary, some stressful, but all with hard work, determination, and fun behind them. So I invite you to stay tuned and I present to you the beginning of our adventure - as performers for the 2009 Gap's Holiday tour, and as performers for many more events to come!
We are a group of professional cheerleaders called Stunners Entertainment. My name is Marcie and I am a co-owner of the group, along with my fellow owners Kayte and Danny. We'd like to invite you into our world - a behind the scenes look at what we do as performers, cheerleaders, and also what we keep busy doing when we aren't entertaining a crowd.
Being the first professional cheerleading company and only of its kind, we feel a sense of responsibility to every talented cheerleader, gymnast, and dancer working hard to be the best at their craft. We work with the best talent from all over the nation whose accolades range from Collegiate Cheerleading National Champions to Olympic Cheerleaders. All the Stunners come from a very diverse background and have quite seasoned resumes specializing, and highly trained, in co-ed stunts, gymnastics, dance, and high-flying tricks. By mixing all of our talents together we are able to create a multi-faceted show perfectly tailored to the concepts of our performances.
This holiday season, we will be teaming up with the Gap stores to spread cheer across the nation! [Check out the article about it in the New York Times!]Touring cross country, we will be performing at major cities all over the United States (NYC, Chicago, Los Angelas, and San Fransisco). If you are near any of these areas come by and check us out. You can’t miss us…we will be the ones flying in the air! We'd love to meet you and show you what we do in person. You can stay in touch with us and find out where we will be via our Facebook Fan Page, Twitter (@Stunners), and our website: www.StunnersEntertainment.com.
Cheers and hope to hear from you soon!
