This. Why such a change in formula? Taking more girls than usual to TC, permitting Yuko to miss SEVERAL practices after Kelli has said for years absences are INEXCUSABLE , lying in the promo showing Vivian as a TCC for season 11, not dancing in boots, and waiting to the very end to devastate these girls. This is NOT a kinder, gentler CMT Making the Team. It's a NFL Cheerleader Team not the Hunger Games! What are they going to do next year, shoot cannons when a RC gets cut?

Well if three girls did get cut, we are down to 39. It is interesting to think that Yuko is still on the team. Why? Still, 3 more girls to get to 36.

I, for one, will miss them. I always hoped they would not get themselves or others in trouble for leaked info. Still as this is a spoiler and speculation page it was nice to have "confirmed" inside info. So...6 more girls? I wonder why all the media shutdown as well as the change in leniency for certain girls. I wonder if this season will be longer only because I feel they have taken longer to cut girls. I hated last season's bloodbath episode, 5 girls cut on one show. I really hope there is no replay of that but it certainly looks that way. If they only take 34 girls like they did last year, that would be 8 girls cut at the end, which I will think was done strictly for ratings. And that simply would be mean and devastating to these girls. I still hope they take more than 36...

Don't know why this posted 2x. I think that is RC Mandy and she looks super pretty there. It is a weird picture. It looks like Melissa is upset and Jenna is consoling her saying, "There, there." Then Tess looks like a giant in that pic and Brennan looks cross-eyed. I see 4 girls that to me do not have the DCC look. Actually 6 but I am sure 2 of them will make it.

Please, please say it....with sugar on top...

They have 42 girls left so they would have to cut 6 girls. Yuko may be forced to withdrawal if her Visa issues do not get resolved. I think I read she had to go back this past weekend, does anyone here know if she returned?

I am praying they take AT LEAST 36 girls. That means 6 girls would get cut. I already feel so bad for these girls. I believe Monday is the start of week 8. If Judy and Kelli don't know by now...I mean, they have to know by now, right? Have they done the stadium entrances yet? That also seems to trip up some girls.

Is Yuko still in training camp? Does anyone know if her Visa issues were resolved?

Btw, TxStar, thank you for always responding to my questions. I haven't had a chance to thank you in a timely manner but I am appreciative of all the info you give us. Muchas Gracias!

Can anyone comment on RC Brennan? I have not heard a peep about her. She is flying under the radar. I remember I voted for her so I hope she is doing well.

It makes me respect Ashley and Jasmine even More. Wow, Kitty really had her claws out for Ashley. Bad bad kitty!

Hola TXStar, have you heard anything on how big the team will be? I am hoping for a 40 member team myself because I want so many of these girls to make it. Any idea of what happened with Bethanny? Last year Kelli and Judy said Kaleigh had a Wow! Body yet she got cut. I agreed with your thoughts that Bethanny would make a great 50 yard girl with her height. I hope you had a fantastic weekend too!

Hannah is gorgeous. Does anyone think Hannah got a boob job? I have always wondered when we saw in her second year tryouts. Maybe that's what kept her falling out of her turns.

She should. I hope she does. They would have to invent new accolades to honor her. An 8+ year vet ring would be known as a JennaLene. I heart her...

I agree. Last season, at cameos, Kelli and Judy both said that Kaleigh's body was WOW in the uniform. I still don't understand why they cut her. They said her hair looked dated which I always found odd since that was was part of her rookie makeover. Kaleigh is gorgeous.

Why? Why? Why? How did Hunter NOT make it into training camp? We have a few insiders here. It is going to be a longggg weekend. Is there anything an insider is able to share to shed any insight on this? I'm afraid CMT will edit Hunter out and we won't ever know why.

I think that between winning a Barbie and making Show Group, Madeline is not on Kelly or Judy's radar in a bad way. Last year she was a scared little girl who looked and acted that way. This year is her year. Perhaps getting cut last year was for the best. Believe me, guys are going to LOVE her girl next door prettiness and approachability. So this leaves me wondering about Heather Hamilton. I think she looks too young. Seriously, I would check her ID even if she wanted to see a PG-13 movie (I joke). I haven't heard anything about this Heather other than she won a Barbie so I was surprised her name was not on the Show Group list. So many RC flying under the radar. I hope for them they pick a 40 member team.

This. There is something simply unexplainable about Kelsey. She really makes people not care if she makes a mistake and yes, I know she has made unforgivable ones. I think she can hypnotize people with those big blue eyes. Today I am lighting my weekly prayer candles. I am lighting one for for 3 RC I would love to see on this year's team.

Every season Kelli and Judy seem to hone in on a TC that they start to see as "too young" dancing among women. Heather H. rings that bell for me. She sort of twins with Madeline. Except Madeline does look a bit more grown and prettier this year. Although Heather H. did earn a Barbie at final auditions. I can see her making show group on that fact alone.

I wondered if they placed them like that so the could have a trio of brunette, redhead and blonde in front. Just wondering...cuz the placement of vets looked odd but the dance was cool. I wish we could have seen more.

Even though it is at least a year or 2 away, I am already sad that the day will come when Jenn K. is no longer on the DCC roster. I think she is among the best of the best. Her sexy is organic, her beauty is natural and her body is on point.

I'm going to throw my guess in the ring and go with Jackie. If she won the fan vote but didn't get the judges vote, then I can see it being her. Last year I got the impression that Kellie was biting at the bit to cut Colby. I wondered if it was because for the first time ever there was a woman at TC that the fans passed through without getting the judges agreement like Vivian and Loren. I wish TxStar would give us a Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner if any of us have guessed correctly. I'll keep my fingers crossed she gives us another good hint.

Finally Jinelle in a pic with the rest of the vets, yay!

Thanks Caligirl! That is some fun trivia. I have only seen seasons 5 thru 10. Last week I saw the auditions of season 8 on cmt. I saw Kelli Quinn, who looks very different now. And I think I saw a glimpse of Kelsey L. which would make it this year her 4th trying out. That is some determination.

I agree. Last year that poor girl did herself in. Getting cut might have out to be a blessing in disguise. Confidence wise she looks like a different person. She looks so girl next door pretty now. Madeline for show group!
