Duffer

The makeup and especially the ruby red lipstick on everyone is terrible. Whose aesthetic could that be? It’s garish. The eyelashes on some of the women are so awful. It’s not flattering to have obviously synergetic eyelashes brushing your eyebrows and cheeks. A lot of them look like their makeup was done by someone with a performing arts background. Makeup to be seen rather than makeup to enhance. fail. Blech.

Do you know who Charlotte is?

Part of her audition story was being on a TV pilot that didn’t get picked up. Maybe?

Amanda. Well that makes me glum. She’s so talented. I wonder if she was offered a better opportunity.

It’s presenting some fact in a way that makes the story seem better than it is. I agree she didn’t say full-ride scholarship. But it’s like the reasonably priced house in good shape on a real estate site. They don’t say it has no driveway, is next to a concert venue, backs up to oil refinery and the schools are an hour away. It’s not the whole story. A $20k scholarship towards a summer intensive in NY would have been more accurate and just as quick.

I worked at a private performing arts “school”. They constantly awarded financial scholarships for intensives or camps that were a fraction of the total cost.

Since announcing point is part of auditions I would like to guess that Amanda and Ashlee will share point for 2021. And that would make me happy. I like both their abilities, and they’re both beautiful.

Leave of absence? Her contracted season is up and she has to re-audition. She’s not auditioning but hopes to return in 2022? A leave of absence sounds like there are laws and protections involved. Edited to add: does a “leave of absence” mean a person returns and goes directly to training camp?

Saw on Reddit a reliable insider is saying another retirement announcement. They’re guessing Judy among others.

Charm choreographed the 2021 super bowl halftime show.

Anybody know what Lacey is up to? So talented!

I feel badly that I laughed. But I did.

Some levity? Those arm over the head poses don’t translate well past their original purpose. I get it for a cameo or poster. But it’s awfully dated. make it stop!

I liked Lily and Meredith a lot. Meredith was so beautiful she took my breath away. She seemed polite and self-aware. Lily seemed to be anxious and my heart went out to her. Boo.
