I think most all are to focused on the camera and are hamming it up.  Facials are way way way too much on some of these ladies

Tess reminds me of the comment by Kelli when she and Heather were rookies "Heather is too Vanillal".  Tess is beyone vanilla here.  Lisa is way to low, slow and stocking in this video.

Tess is almost as bland as Amy.  I'm sure Tess is super nice...but she has NO style or pop.  Oh well,  at least she doesn't make ugly facials.

Gina has a knee injury, recovering from surgery and she still showed up. 

 Not to be a vk kiss up but atleast she wasn’t like Kat who showed up to class with the flu possible chancing on affecting others

Not that I dislike Chandi, just had been disappointed that was blended material, until NOW. She’s fierce there.

Amber gets overlooked IMO bc she’s top 5 in technique and power. I’d triangle her with Bridget, Caroline, maybe Gina. 

Bridget, Caroline and Amber are all super lovely, amazing dancers, but that would be the most girl next door triangle of all time.  They all take fantastic pictures (especially Caroline, IMO) but it wouldn't be as visually interesting to anyone except those of us that are super into the dancing itself.

In Kelli's books you HAVE to show up even if you got flu, even if it risk infecting others. Isnt that along the lines of what Kelli told Melissa Rycroft when Melissa had mono (or whatever she had?). Kat shouldnt have gone in with flu but in Kelli's books at least she showed up but as I said before Kelli has never been "fair" (never will be) when it comes to VK.

There was some girls who didn’t go due to being on trips !!

They’d be a whole lot more visually interesting than this plain Jane plus a 00s playboy bunny hodge podge from this season.

The other blonde is Lily? For some reason I thought it was Tasha lol. But I'm like why would she be doing this? 

Okay now that I got a closer look, and it's not blurry I can clearly tell that it's her. Ha

My favorite DCC in Motion was the first one with Madeline, Tess, Taylor and Victoria. The red dresses, music and choreography was flirty and cool. Which one did you all like? 

I would like to see a fun hip hop one. Or something like the video Amy and the other Pro Bowl cheerleaders put together to that song that goes “I work”.  Liked that one too.

Started the video and was pleasantly surprised that it not only did NOT feature Victoria in any way, but didn't even have her in the video.  The fact that it has girls that we've not only never (or rarely) seen in another video but another rookie?  You mean there's other rookies on the team?  I thought Victoria was the only rookie that made the team this year, the way she's featured all the time.  Yes, there was some snark and sarcasm in those last two sentences.  

Other than the fact that there's no Victoria in this video at all (which really elevates it above a certain few others), the video was okay, but it doesn't reflect Kelli's dialogue that these girls are world class.  Show us WHY they are world class.  Show us that they are amazing dancers who do fun, funky choreography that challenges them and makes them work, but that shows off their technique and training.  The majority of these videos are very similar to what we would see them perform on the field and doesn't showcase the talents of the girls in any meaningful way, at least to me.  Have several girls with amazing kicks?  Show them.  Have several girls that turn like tops?  Show them.  Have girls that have amazing leaps?  Show them.

According to the podcast, that was the original purpose of these videos.  KaShara puts the girls in groups depending on the styles they are strong in.  She picks out the settings and the music, but the girls do their own choreo.

Well, not to be mean & I wish no heartache on anyone, but to answer the question-- VK (which we know won't happen) then maybe Christina.I understand she has worked alot of her years to get where she is at, but I believe her time has come and gone..('expiration date has passed' as Jay coined abt someone in past)

I don't know the young lady other than following her on IG, but my opinion on Dayton is that DCC was not her dream...and maybe never was.  I love following her...she is a beautiful dancer, a beautiful person and seems to be genuine with her personality.  She seems to be happy with her upcoming move to Houston (unless that's changed) and I hope things go well for her! 🙂

I thought Dayton was beautiful and classy just like her mom @ShellyB! I believe Dayton may have wanted to try her hand at DCC, then Iwas disgusted at how she was treated! Good for you, Dayton! I am glad she is pursuing dreams elsewhere! I respect the DCC, but yes, alot of the moves back in the KF/JT days were so much more basic..Not knocking them, but today's world/competition is SO different! But I sure love Shelly on the staff! Seems so genuine!

I seem to have Amy-fatigue because I cannot stand to see her anymore. I think she is a great person and all, but I can’t stop thinking: can’t she just leave already?

The past 5 years she did not stand out, and when she tried out for the first time I barely took notice. Amy Trader, Megan Carcioppollo and Holly Powell were the rookies that stood out. They should have been point in these past years. There have been DCC’s that were much much much better than Amy, in any department, and that did not make point, and here she is, just point by default, still dancing point, in the front.

I definitely have Amy-fatigue.

I don't normally comment on, or even pay attention to swimsuit photos but WHY IN THE HECK did TPTB allow that photo to be published? Looks like her @$$ is hanging out.

She is stunning, no doubt IMO, but I agree, @dccbluegrassdccfan ! I thought the whole 'idea's was 'wholesome' as they say...not exactly America's Sweethearts in my book, although I DO wish by bod looked like that! I also don't like the ribs sticking out either! Hannah is very pretty tho!

I totally agree! I am so happy for her! 
Her cheekbones seem to have a lower elevation than in her younger years, hell, than a half year ago, and it makes her face look less round. Her longer hair also gives her a longer face.

Maddie is bringing the glamour in her 5th year, and I am all for it. I always liked her but I always felt like she wasn’t up to par on the glamour department. If she keeps changing like this, who knows how she would look like in her 6th or 7th year!  Maybe she’ll be much more of a confident speaker as well!

Maddie seems to look a little thinner in this pic! I take awful pics & would love to look like one of these DCC's even on one of their bad days! I think they all look really pretty, but I do get the idea of maddie as having a little girl look!

I don't really mind the top -- Gina obvs took a sleeve tutorial from our fashion forward Brennan. BUT (and everyone knows I love me some Gina) those shoes!!!  Gasp -- are they rehab footwear for while her knee heals?  She redeems the entire outfit, though, with her gorgeous new hair look. (hmm, maybe not, I really can't get past those matronly shoes.....)  Love the smile and hair (and her dancing!), though.

If that was the original purpose of the videos, they not only lost their way, but went so far off course that they'll never be found again.  I wish someone with a choreographer's knowledge and skills would come in for these videos after the girls have come up with the moves and polish up the routines.  Something along the lines of "That transition makes things too choppy, if you did x/y/z, then it would flow better from this move to that move" or "Everyone has to be able to do all the moves cleanly.  If you can't do the move, let me or [person] know and we'll substitute something else that everyone can do well."  Etc.  Give them critiques and the WHY of making things better, teach them about what works and what doesn't.  Even if they never go on to choreograph again, they'll have learned something about the process from people who know.

I’m still waiting for Kelli to realize that there is more to the team than VK.  Would love to be a fly on the wall around VK and Kelli, while the rest of the team are around.  

I actually pity the poor girls being subjected to this blatant VK favoritism. And most likely VK isn't fully self aware (being groomed from birth) that she is seen in a worse light than she even knows...(no doubt she is so entitled acting), but all that aside, yes I too, would like to be a fly on the wall! It would be so SAD to truly know that u didn't actually "earn" ur spot! Now I'm not saying she is awful by any means, but KF and TK have done her an injustice in a backwards way IMO...(there are many benefits of flying under the radar)... but hey she is young and most likely happy (obviously) of the benefits. I've watched a few seasons here and there of this show til I got deep in the rabbit hole around season 12...My spouse even said "why is that one chick ALWAYS featured" & that person knows zero abt the show! But hey that says alot. I had crazy respect before, but after VK ordeal I truly see that it is not WHAT u know but "who u know" undeniable! And OMG don't even get me started on #Cassiegate! But even she wasnt even featured as much! Hey even Kalli Fullerton was shown alot(and didn't mind too much as she never came across entitled)But the VK is off the chain obvious! And oh Lord the meredith thing is just pathetic! Thank you all for this forum!!!

She isn't AWFUL, but going on past seasong K/J would have cut her in week 2 easily! She is lovely, but going on what I've seen in the past--TCC's were cut for her issues EARLY!

I think Meredith is likely a one-and-done and won't survive Auditions.  In the past, the majority of Kelli's girl-crushes (gymnast Kat, Breelan, Morgan, etc.) were cut once they showed they hadn't improved over the past year.  Kelsey L. survived to year 2 because she improved and had been working hard.  Kelsey L. is the only one of Kelli's girl-crushes that I can think of that made it to her second year, but are there others? 

I think Meredith will be gone, Kat will be cut due to being a MAJOR ambassador risk (and she'd better hope for a miracle between now and auditions) and I suspect Lily will be the third rookie cut.  Kat seems to think that she'll be on the squad next year and I want to see her face if she gets cut.  She just may be the one to spill the tea if she gets cut.

[pinkandsparkly13]

I don't know, I feel like Kelli has had a bigger crush on Meredith than she did any of those other girls. Unless she has a really bad audition, or gains too much weight or she/other judges are over her, or she's been late anytime during the season...I feel like they would let her slide and bring her back. There has been a few weak dancers that keep making it back year after year for some reason. And if Kelli still loves her then...ya know...lol.
