I thought Madeline Salter was super gorgeous and seemed very humble.  I really hope that she comes back with more power next year, because I think she has everything else.

Me too I liked her a lot ... I can understand how Amy gave off a vibe she had wished Madeline finished at the dance college and then tried out she would have been stronger ... I am hoping she comes back stronger like Erin did 🙂

I thought she was beautiful and could certainly get the dance type if she wanted.  I also got an Anne Lutz personality type.  I don't know that she would ever be a CharJo fav.  Plus, honestly, she could do better.

wow didnt know that thanks! I would never guess she would have a weight issue ... interesting ...

You could see it during the calendar shoot, though of course she still looked amazing.  She carried it pretty well but was definitely thicker than when she had tried out.  I think it was just a temporary blip for her after the relationship she moved to Dallas for had ended.  Love following her career as the Raiderette's coach!  (Tho boooo Raiders.)

Didn't Madeline Salter say she'd be back this season? I hope she does and I also hope that Shaina Grace comes back as well after the tragedy last year.  I would love to see Geena Rojas audition again (made finals but not TC) She was adorable!! 🙂

I hope so too. A lot happens in a year so hope the passion is still there. Oh, I forgot about Shaina and she made it pretty far in  training camp.  She will be probably be back.

I know many weren't that impressed with her, but I wouldn't mind seeing Taylor T. try again. Terrible media day aside, I feel that if she improved enough in that area she could in fact be a DCC good ambassador. I feel like her dancing is there, and she would be fun to see on the sidelines. Just my two cents. Maybe third time's the charm?

Also would like to see Madeline again. First go around wasn't perfect, but I feel she has the potential to become a fan favorite if she improves her dancing and maintains the good attitude she had throughout last year's training camp.

Which one was Taylor T? What did she say during media day? 

There was another shorter, long-haired blonde at training camp... her name I can’t recall.  Don’t even remember why she was cut. She was rarely featured... dang it is going to bother me.

She's the one who bombed the "Me Too" question in media day in 2018.  She auditioned again last year but didn't make it back into training camp.

A huge portion of that stuff was never been proven in a way that can be objectively verified.  Yes she gained weight in training camp, but all that stuff about her lying and blaming Jinelle and tattling on others has not been.  It’s mostly rumors on here that people can chose to believe or not believe.

 

Despite the generous edit on CMT, I saw enough that corroborated the insider’s stories about her.  YMMV.

I also think that Victoria is a solid middle of the pack DCC. Definitely not the worst (for me in recent years that was the Jessika that looked like Lauren Conrad). Victoria is pretty, tall, and bright with a big smile and a decent grasp on power Pom dancing.

But she’s definitely not the best. And that’s what I don’t like - this narrative that she’s this amazing dancer. I actually feel like the DCC In Motion have done her a complete disservice. Before she was lost in the crowd of poms and hair flips and ‘sexy hips’ and flirty dance faces. For me, DCC In Motion has really highlighted that her skills just do not compare to Caroline, Amber, or Gina. I don’t blame Victoria for that. I blame the TPTB.  

 

Well said and I completely agree.

The difference is is that there isn't a group of staunch pro-Maddie posters taking exception & posting rebuttals to every post that is critical of Maddie insisting that it isn't so because she's the best of the best/can do no wrong. So, instead of page after page of back and forth over every criticism, there's a few posts back and forth & then people move on to something else.

Ah yes, the Lone Rangers riding to her rescue.

If she didn't have an issue - why would she (Victoria herself) entertain questions posed to her regarding her thyroid on her IG.

IIRC - in the meeting, she was asked about her weight gain. Yet - nothing about a possible thyroid condition was mentioned, until the issue with appointment and Jinelle was "leaked" here - correct? 

If her "thyroid" was only mentioned here (and not shown on the show) - isn't she like fueling the fire, regarding the truth about her "lie?"

I also LOL at anyone who believes a nutritionist can prescribe meds and if someone had a condition - would stop taking the meds.

At least two insiders who consistently post reliable spoilers have confirmed this to be true.  Aside from that, if it weren't true, then the conversation that was shown between Kelli, Jinelle and Victoria would make absolutely no sense.  I get that people want to defend Victoria, but this is for sure one place she screwed up big time.

At least one of those insiders said VK studio hopped and that the Kalinas were super wealthy.   When both things have been proven false.  So keep that in mind.

The only thing clear in that meeting was that VK did not reply to texts Jinelle sent her regarding setting up or going to an apt w/ a nutritionist (assume worst case it was going).    Kelli was upset that VK didn’t respond to her and take her help.  Then VK said that stuff about her not wanting help from Jinelle cause she never had a weight issue.   Jinelle said if you didn’t want you should have just said so and then VK apologized.

If the thyroid stuff is all stemming from something on her instagram, what does that even have to do with DCC or Jinelle?

And none of the stuff about tattling has ever even been close to being confirmed on the show.

It was leaked here that she lied about a missed appointment for her thyroid before anything aired. It was never stated on air that the appointment was regarding a thyroid issue, but later, when asked, Victoria confirmed it was a thyroid issue on instagram. If the insiders here are making stuff up out of thin air, then they sure made a lucky guess.

It was stated that she was teaching at her to pay for her lessons because the family could not afford them. I dont believe that. I believe she taught there, but not because her family is one step up from poverty snd she had to teach for the money. I think it is more likely she taught because she wanted too, for the experience. I would think that teaching would be good experience for someone wanting to pursue a dance career. Maybe she wants to have her own studio someday, like Amy.

Someone asked Victoria about her thyroid on IG and Victoria herself responded that she does have this condition,  but that she stopped taking her medication because it made her sick. We got the thyroid info right from her mouth, so here is the verification.

REMINDER: Per the first mod note in this thread, This is not the place for petty squabbles.  It is OK if someone likes someone you don't like - and vise versa.  Your posts must be about the show/current team and NOT each other.  This thread is on a short leash.  We suggest you make use of the Ignore feature.  If you don't know how to use it, instructions are here.

Ok, I want to be clear that this topic is supposed to be for what its title entails: current squad and their social media. This is not a catch-all stream of consciousness topic.

Commentary about the DCC organization, reruns on Pluto TV, women who used to be on the DCC, all have their own topics and do not belong in here. 

It is also not a stage for petty squabbles. It’s ok if someone likes someone you don’t like— and vice versa.

Victoria looked a tad thick (by DCC standards) in her videos last March, and was much thinner by auditions in May.  I think she's taking appetite suppressants and possibly did a quick weight loss diet.

I'm not so sure about that. There are quite a few posts on here about girls looking "thick" or "puffy" in uniform when they've maybe gained a 1/2 pound or it's just normal monthly fluctuations (or, more importantly, they happen to be exhaling during a pic 😲). Of course, if the "standard" wasn't set so low by the TPTB & normal weight was more the norm, those comments probably wouldn't be so prevalent here.

I agree. I can’t imagine the pressure of maintaining whatever magic number TPTB come up with and also feeling confident in the uniform.  On top of that, maintaining perfection under the microscope of critical fans who look for the slightest hint of pudge or “flab”.

I know it’s what they sign up for and this isn’t unique to cheerleading/DCC, but it still makes me a little sad for them.

Thank you! 

I think I'd like Gina Marie, Shaina, Bret and Madeline S to try out again and hopefully make it. Gina Marie and Madeline S just needed more time in the DCC style and I thought Bret and Shaina should've made it. I can understand if Shaina doesn't come back though.

Ashley and Julia just give me bitchy vibes, like most of the Mavs dancers do. Alexandra seems lovely and has potential but probably needs to accept that after 5 years, this might not be the path for her. I don't even remember Lauren at all.

I'd also love Katy from UCLA to try out again. She had all the attributes to be a DCC, provided she can keep her weight maintained.
