You’re not alone lol. I’m also surprised Lexie was never point considering her placement the past three years but happy she is the PBC.

I’m so happy Gina is one of the points. I do think Lexie should have been the other point but I know they wouldn’t demote Rachel. Lexie also has that pop that I don’t see in Rachel. love Kleine! I wouldn’t be surprised if she got rookie of the year because she does seem to be a great teammate and even Judy acknowledged that. This may be an unpopular opinion but I’m surprised Amber L wasn’t cut. Her look and dancing kind of remind me of Taylor. I think that if Ava didn’t have the social media issues, she should have made the team over Amber.

Who knew Natalie Woods would be the one cheerleader we can all agree on? 😂

Glad I’m not the only one who finds this season to be a little bit of a snooze fest. I know Melissa was picked to be a showmanship mentor because of the other shows she’s been on but she was mediocre back in her day. I’d love to see some of the real powerhouses mentor the girls instead. The house tour with Natalie Woods also didn’t sit well with me. I’d rather hear more about how Kleine prepared for DCC, ask Natalie for advice, etc… or just cut the whole scene from the show would have been fine too😜 I’m glad the show is showing more of the vets than in previous seasons. Favorite rookies are Kaydianna, Tori, Kleine and Ashlinn.

I couldn’t help but feel concerned about Gina. I’m not sure if she has an eating disorder but I can definitely see how being in an environment like DCC could lead to one. Rachel and Caroline are definitely two DCC’s I never considered “fluffy” until these photos.

I don’t see Daphne in this pic.

I wasn’t going to chime in but I’m a POC and I’ve noticed a lot of comments regarding race lately. I disagree that these comments calling attention to the lack of diversity of the team are an attack on white people. Not calling attention to the issue doesn’t resolve race issues. Saying that POC should be accepted only if they’re qualified ignores the fact that year after year, TPTB have taken girls who are definitely not field ready but fit a certain look that they like. I think that some POC may be discouraged from trying out when they know they already may not have the aesthetic that TPTB are looking for and there is a chance that they could be the only POC or one of few on the team.

This was Judy’s reply about the one day audition.

I couldn’t agree more. MRS was a mediocre cheerleader at best. Hannah was a two time show group member. I know DCC has her come back because she’s been on other shows but can we get someone like Michelle Keys or one of the Jennifers to be the showmanship mentor? Also, she kept saying that Hannah was bashing the organization. I haven’t seen any posts that seem to do that. I do wonder if the cut girls regret not doing a one day audition now and if their outcomes would have been different. I would have loved to see the vet audition videos so we could get a better idea of why some vets were ranked so low coming into training camp.

Thoughts on cameos: Tess...yikes! For being world class, how did they think that was a good cameo? I wish they had left Armani’s hair alone. I was surprised Kelli personally wished Armani a happy birthday on IG. Has she ever done that before? Speaking of IG, the amount of Maddie love is kind of shocking. You’d think she’s the only one who can dance/deserves to be point based on the comments.

I agree! I’m just confused as to why Kelli said Brennan has never been a wow dancer this year but kept bringing her back to training camp. Was Lily ever called into the office this training camp before she was cut? I was also really hoping for Gina to be point. Maddie just doesn’t look mature enough to be up there especially when she’s got Lexie and Gina on either side. Also, Rachel W. is beautiful but I don’t find her dancing to be that exciting.

Agreed! Jessica was bland and Alora-Rose had lots of mistakes the first few days. I would have loved to have seen more deliberations about the vet cuts and why those two were kept.

Wow... Brennan is my hero. I was not expecting her say she’s disappointed in the direction the team was going. Seeing Judy’s eyes bug out was worth it. Judy made a comment she thought the next zoom would be worse than Brennan’s and then it was Hannah. I would have loved to have seen their entire conversation. still salty that they cut these girls and kept Alora Rose and Jessica.

Absolutely agree with all of this! They’ve known Hannah for two seasons now and know what she’s capable of. I think some leniency could be given when they know she’s a talented vet, has struggled with mental health issues but still showed up to training camp. IMO, most of the girls seem pick to causes that don’t carry a stigma. Kelli saying she liked her answer during media day seemed disingenuous. If Hannah ever writes a tell-all, I’d be happy to buy it.

Agreed! I think this is the best Brennan has looked. Personally, I thought all of the vets looked good in the dance off. I wish we saw more of Brennan and Hannah during it. I thought it was interesting they used Caroline for comparison and not their beloved Maddie. Kelli and Judy have girls not social distancing and not wearing masks and they’re surprised someone tested positive? 🤔
