Danielle Hilliard: Don’t ask me about ‘Spirit Fingers’ [Ben Li Shoot+Interview]

Congrats Danielle, on being named Sports Illustrated’s Cheerleader of the Week

Here is Danielle’s interview with SI … with a dash of LDU on the side.

I love my school, but I almost went to: Western was always my first pick.

My best physical feature is: My stomach. **LDU agrees strongly. VERY strongly.

If I had to watch one movie on loop forever, it would be: Beverly Hills Ninja.

If you looked at the “most played” songs on my iPod, you’d see a lot of: Variety, I have a very broad taste in music.

The shows I DVR/Tivo are: The Hills, True Blood, and UFC Fights **the fights!? i’ll be sure to reserve us a table for the next UFC

My favourite website is: lionsdenU.com, Chugabeerhavesexwithacheerleader! (aw, Dani, you shouldn’t have)

My favourite people to follow on Twitter are: I don’t really use Twitter, but John Mayer‘s posts always make me laugh, and Lion’s Den U

My worst habit is: Overeating. I tend to eat even when I’m not hungry! **wow, fat people must HATE you

My gameday superstitions are: Compulsively checking my bag multiple times before leaving my place to make sure that I have everything I’m going to need for the game.

The talent I’d most like to have that I don’t possess is: To play the guitar

These three things top my bucket list: 1. Marry the love of my life; 2. Travel all across Europe; 3. Go skydiving **The LDU can arrange two of those…

I’d want my last meal to be: Spaghetti and meatballs.

The most embarrassing thing that’s ever happened to me during a game is: Before a game, we were warming up on the grass and I did the splits right beside an ant hill. They climbed up my leg and as I freaked out and tried to get them off, they all started to bite me. I had red bumps all the way up the inside of my leg from ant bites. Needless to say, it wasn’t an attractive look in my cheer skirt. I was embarrassed to do anything during the entire game. **Ohhhhhh, that’s what that was!

Three things I’d take to a desert island are: Sunscreen, water, and a way home. **Hm. That’s not boring at all.

My favourite pro sports teams are: I’m not really a die-hard fan of any professional sports teams, but I’ll go with the Toronto Maple Leafs.

My one guilty pleasure is: Häagen-Dazs strawberry ice cream.

My celebrity crush is: Johnny Depp

Five people I’d like to have dinner with (living or dead) are: Both of my grandfathers because I never got a chance to meet them, Johnny Deep, Marilyn, and Criss Angel … preferably not all at the same time.

My best friends would be surprised to know that I: lost my last baby tooth on my 16th birthday.

The next risk I want to take is: Applying to graduate school.

The worst date I’ve ever been on was: So far, I’ve been pretty lucky and haven’t had any dates bad enough to stick out as the worst date I’ve ever been on (knock on wood).
