I don't get that feeling at all.  She seems super happy in all her recent posts.  She's been cheering for a long time.  My guess is she's ready to get on to the next chapter of her life.  I will miss her huge, but I wish her all the best in whatever her new adventure may be.

Same for me...but I got a funny feeling watching last season.  The episode when they are reviewing that personality test and I think Julia had just been cut.  A comment was made that she does not just "get over" things quickly.  Takes her time to process.  I got the impression she was very disappointed with the was things were going and maybe she just was ready to move on.  I am so happy for her now.  She seems super happy and seems to be an amazing person.

I just watched the episode with Alexandra (season 8, maybe?) and they DEFINITELY brought in someone special to work with her hair.  And truly, they should, because extensive training for textured hair is no joke, and you want someone who isn't going to screw up someone's natural hair.  Which takes me back to everyone at Tangerine freaking out about Yuko's hair.  You can tell when people don't get out of their usual wheelhouse very often.  At any rate, I had to snicker at Kelli's level of ridiculous when she was saying it was the first time she had heard things like "unit" and "weave queen."  They've had plenty of ladies with extensions and weaves since she's been doing makeovers, but okay girl!  

Maybe it'll be similar to Savannah.  She'll never be the strongest in DCC style despite her technical background, but has really improved over the years and she blends in just fine.  Plus, great on appearances and probably Camp DCC, etc. as well.

I have to admit, I was a little surprised that Kelli seemed to know so little about wigs, how they're worn and wig maintenance during Kat's makeover.

Haley has a screenshot of the virtual banquet on her IG stories.. that's the most I've seen so far. It's small and blurry and you can't see a thing, but it's something 😆

From what I can see, they look so bored and serious lol. Breanna and Erin have their head leaning on their hands lol

According to Judy's instagram story it appears to me that she received some kind of award/glass trophy of some sort.

I'm watching MTT on Pluto looking at Ally Traylor's AWFUL wig on Season 6 which was 9 years ago.  I think hers is one of the worse I've seen a DCC wear.  So surely Kelli has known about wigs for a long time.

#TeamJalyn always
She is so gracious. Her movements are so refined. I don't know how to explain it, but the way she moves is the same way how dances. So much control. She is such a great dancer. I hope that she knows how much she is appreciated.

Ugh i love Jalyn so freaking much, she is such an amazing human and a treasure for the squad, like you said, i really wish she knows how loved she is by her fans ❤️ team Jalyn and Bridget always.

Any screen shots of the girls doing the virtual banquet?  Curious if Mama Kalina joined VK...  would love to see reactions after ROTY/VOTY announced.  🙂

I hope the other Jen takes Judy's spot, NOT Jen A they keep forcing down our throats she comes off so condescending and disingenuous  to me 

I agree with this but I have a feeling, if Judy actually is retiring, that Jen A will be the replacement.  It seems like they've been grooming her for that spot.

Are we sure she’s retiring and it’s not a usual “anniversary” gift?

i’m just assuming that for both Kelli and Judy there is some sort of clause that they need to give adequate notice and that they would bring in the replacement as soon as possible? 

That is what I'm wondering....if it was just her Thank You gift for 35 years and not an indication that she's retiring.  We get gifts for every five years we put in at the hospital 🙂

  • Love 13

I'm not convinced that marking her 35 years of service is a "thanks for 35 years--we'll miss you" crystal sign. I mean, it may be, but I would expect both K & J's replacements would shadow them extensively for at least a season before changing the guard. I imagine they would seize upon the opportunity to highlight that on the show and milk it for all it's worth. Now, sometimes people retire rather suddenly or unexpectedly for various reasons, so I'm not ruling it out, but I would be shocked if that' show the organization or Judy announced her retirement to the public.

Me either. According to the podcast she has been watching all the video submissions and getting ready for next season. IMHO when she does retire it will be announced at the beginning of the season and they will make a big deal out of it being her last one. I could be wrong.

Exactly! Not only because it’s great content (or at least something new for a change), but if they want to keep the show going, people need to be kept in the loop in a sense. You can’t spend 15 seasons with 2 “characters” and then suddenly tune in to VK as director (kidding, kidding!) and JenK as choreographer.

Why doesn't someone just ask Judy if she's retiring?

Kelcey--I barely know who she is.

Probably because She Who Shall Not Be Named gets all the coverage.

Kelcey is the strongest dancer of the rookies, IMO. I am thrilled for both Kelcey and Bridget!

Well, within two years, moved to Dallas, broke off an engagement, left her job as a vet tech, started a new office job, left that to get back to her first love, found a new boyfriend and all along, was a DCC.  That's a lot going on:)

I don't follow her on social media. Did Bridget go back to being a vet tech? Thank you

Kelsey is rookie of the year and Bridget is veteran of the year!!!

This is awesome 🙂 Both ladies are very deserving !!

I'm a huge fan of both ladies! Congrats to them! Has a 2nd year vet won VOTY before? I recall Heather O got it after year 3. Clearly, the team agrees that Bridgett is awesome, but this makes me feel like her retirement is more likely. I'm in mad denial about it. But I'm so glad she got such an honor from her teammates if she isn't around long enough to be point or in the triangle, 2GL, GL, etc.

I agree that Kelsey was the strongest rookie dancer. She is smart, articulate, seems very mature and sweet, and a nurse (or at least training to be one and was studying for boards during training camp). She also is beautiful in a very natural and understated way--she has stunning cheekbones and her eyes really pop in photos--and is the one rookie from this year I've pegged as one I'd love to see at point. I'd love to see both Kelsey and Chandi as leaders on the team down the line and hope they stay long enough.

I wonder how a certain rookie took not getting ROTY...

She must have passed because the pic Heather posted of them together in the office, she had RN on her name badge 🙂

Kelcey and Bridget

I'm super-excited about this as I was hoping that Amanda, Kelcey or Chandi would get it this year instead of you-know-who.  However, I was thinking that either Kelli would over-ride them (despite not having done it for anyone else that we know of) or pressure the girls into voting for Victoria.  Either way, she would have done damage to the girls AND the team.  I also hope that someone pointed out how bad it would look for her had she done so (though that's never stopped her before).  However, I don't hesitate for one second in thinking that Kelli was campaigning for Victoria the entire time and made her feelings abundantly known.

I only recognize her because she's one of the few non-blondes in the group.

AND that Victoria gets more coverage than almost anyone else.  I don't doubt that will continue next year given what we saw the past two years.

I'm not only wondering the same thing, but I'm wondering how Tina took it as well.  Given everything Kelli has done over the past 2 years, certain heads must be exploding and I would have loved to be a fly on the wall when the dual temper tantrums occurred as well as the phone call took place to ask Kelli what happened.

I had forgotten Kelcey and Bridget were boot buddies.  How fun that they both won!

I couldn't like this more if i had too! Bridget is my absolute FAVE and Kelsey seems like a doll! They finally got something right... 

That’s because these awards are given by the team. I’m sure Kelli would interfere if she could do so without the girls figuring it out, but I assume words get around and they all know who voted for whom.

More than that, I'm wondering how Amy (little miss "that's cuuuute") is taking not getting VOTY.

She probably expected it since for the past few years all honors were going to the same few people. I for one I’m glad that at least voty went to someone else. I miss the old days when we had multiple upper vets and it was hard to guess who would get which honors. Now if you’re willing to put up with this for more than 3 years, you already know you will get GL, PB, apparently even triangle and most probably VOTY.

I hadn't even thought of that but i'm sure she's just stunned that she didn't get it given her seniority, she's never been my fave bc Kelli does nothing but talk about blenders and she's so pastel you'd forget she's even there plus her attitude always bugged me...
