Andre Simmons of Texas is the ultimate cheer dad. A heartwarming video captured by his wife Cecelia went viral on TikTok, amassing over 312,000 views since its posting on September 30. The video shows Andre mirroring the cheerleaders' moves with an infectious enthusiasm at a Temple High School football game, cheering on his daughter Jazlyn.
Cecelia captioned the video with a smiling face emoji and text that read, “Everyone always asks Andrè Simmons about the boys continuing his football legacy little do they know he’s waited his whole life to be a cheer dad.”
Andre recently sat down with Good Morning America to recount the moment. He explained that although he’s not the best dancer and it took him a few days to pick up on the routine, he stuck with it to create a lifelong memory with Jazlyn. As an infantryman, Andre is often away from home and was happy to support Jazlyn in her cheerleading performance.
“Once I got it down pat, I just jumped up there when I heard the band finally bring the song up, and I got up there and did it with her,” Andre said.
His show of fatherly support was a success with Jazlyn and all of her cheer team friends, too. Not only were they surprised by his joining in, but they were glad that he would show out for them at their performances and have fun while doing it.
“I love to try to be a super dad when I’m here and create those lifelong memories, and it’s something for us to look back on and enjoy together,” Andre expressed.
Andre Simmons is a shining example of an incredible dad, and his daughter Jazlyn is so lucky to have a father that supports her with such enthusiasm. He is truly an inspiration to all.
