Pro Silver Star Ltd., the owner of the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders brand, has filed a lawsuit against My Chemical Romance following a concert featuring gun-wielding backup dancers in uniforms resembling those of the cheerleaders. The lawsuit, filed on October 21, 2026, accuses My Chemical Romance of degrading the DCC brand through the unauthorized use of the DCC Uniform during their theatrical concert production titled "The Black Parade."
The court documents allege that the concert featured armed conflict, with the backup dancers portraying the cheerleaders and engaging in a staged firefight. Audience members and social media users quickly identified the backup dancers as the real Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, leading to public outrage. Pro Silver Star had previously reached out to My Chemical Romance, asking them to cease using the DCC Uniform in their performances.
However, the company claims that My Chemical Romance refused to comply, causing irreparable harm to the reputation and goodwill associated with the DCC brand. The lawsuit seeks a temporary restraining order, a temporary injunction, and monetary damages, though the specific amount was not disclosed. The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders uniform has been an iconic symbol of one of the most famous brands in American entertainment for over half a century.
Pro Silver Star argues that the uniform is protectable trade dress that no one may use without the company's permission.
