Madeline looks adorable. That lighter curly hair does wonders.

I don't mean she looks bad, the pose and her expression are just so limp and passive. It's like she was just plopped down on the rocks.

Did she take a better pic? Because I think the one above makes her look like roadkill. I understand what they were going for with the reflection, but it doesn't work for me.

Careful with this or I'll try to make you my source for Sleek palettes!

Maybe Brooke would come back for an opportunity like that.

I did mean Tasha--sorry for any confusion!

Tasha went private on IG, and she doesn't much strike me as a particularly private person.

I'm already a big Cersten fan. Looking at her IG she seems very proud of her education and is close to her family.

Someone posted recently that Jasmine was intending to leave last year but they asked her to audition and be cut for drama. On the one hand that makes sense because she moved to California pretty quickly after that and that seems like something that would be in the works for a while. But on the other hand she and others looked genuinely upset.

You're correct, and I was misunderstanding the Twitter trademark policy. It sounds like if someone has a legitimate claim to a name and isn't posing as someone who holds a trademark, you can keep the handle. https://support.twitter.com/articles/18367

Maybe one of the rookie TCCs dropped out and they asked Kat back? She can't do that. Twitter owns all handles and I'm assuming the Cowboys have an agreement with them to control any DCC_*** name.

She was in this show in Waikiki. What she's doing in the video is definitely hula (the arms/hands) with a little Tahitian thrown in.

A clip of Simone's solo.

This is an excellent point. I agree that if you're a beautiful, talented dancer you have lots of options and the DCC really needs to be a passion for you to want to do it.

Maybe Judy goes more by skill, but there's a reason they group the finalists by hair color and skin tone during the field performances in finals. Their casting is far from colorblind.

I'm pretty sure if I had to spend 5 minutes in a room with Tasha I'd run away screaming, but hopefully she brings the drama. Does she actually live in Dallas or are they relocating there for this?

Yeah, I really wonder if she'll get cut. She's literally a head taller than anyone else.

But it's not a scientific process. Like a couple years ago when Danielle was going to be cut but Kelli and Charlotte decided to take her anyway.

How old is Kelli? Because she honestly looks like she's in her 40s.

I don't know. Since Simone is probably on a bubble I think she should have done something a little more straightforward. Hula is fun, but she really needs to show them she can dance. I'm even more nervous for her now.

Sorry, I think it's hideous and I really can't imagine what sort of occasion purple leather is appropriate for, except maybe a Whitesnake concert.

I agree with this completely. I have no idea what the actual routine looks like because no two people did it the same. Cersten looks the most confident to me for the first half of the routine.

Is it common to have a demonstrator in front for an audition like they do in the videos? It seems to throw them off more than it helps them. Several of them just have their eyes locked on the vet (Bethany is particularly bad), and a lot of them cut things short or rush. Then you have Whitney, who screws up the choreography but looks great because she's just relaxed and going with it rather than trying to keep up with the vet.

I loved how much spunky personality she showed.

Yeah, Shelbi's was bad. Hunter looked a little flustered at the beginning but got better. I think Cersten is still the best.
