Where I live we're allowed to travel locally (governor says don't travel to other states but I don't see how he can enforce that.  He also said that people that came in from another state to attend a church service yesterday had "brought the virus in" which is wierd) and visit "essential" businesses like grocery stores, pharmacies and pet supply stores to name a few (everything else is closed).

Those two ladies came from North Jersey, which has a lot of cases, & drove to KY for church. He was the one that chose to have services but I got the impression he wasn’t happy about those ladies.

The video said that they're a new team for an indoor football team, so I applaud their outreach efforts and that according to the coach, they took precautions when choreographing and practicing the routine, doing so completely online. They looked pretty and it was nice seeing different body types, too.

Victoria should watch this video and others of similar, or better, quality dancing, take notes, and apply those notes to her own dancing.  But then, we know that she won't do anything of the sort.  Her technique is bad enough that she obviously wasn't paying attention to her teachers or their critiques.

Well, Kelli decided that she deserves SG over Jalyn and Erin who are both amazing dancers who can actually get professional gigs without relying on their mommies’ connections. How would VK ever believe she’s anything but amazing when that’s what she’s been told her whole life?

I liked Bridget’s responses. We got some behind the scenes clips. Honestly, they should be encouraged to share that kind of stuff, as well as their solos. How many times do we need to hear about the amazing calendar shoot and community outreach, the abbey bear and pinky ring, the groups etc?

Savannah is coming back she has been doing dcc prep with a lot of the girls 

I like her ... guess I will always root for the underdog ... and I know its a long shot but I have my fingers crossed she can get to show group as this most likely will be her last year. Hopefully prep classes will get her there

Considering Hannah and Erin are older they should have more technique ... I like to watch Victoria do the lyrical pieces and she will grow as these lovely ladies did also .. I'm only 5'4 and would kill for long legs like that LOL!!

She’s nice and I’m sure she’s good at appearances, but SG? She’s one of the weakest dancers, so if they dared to remove Jalyn but give Savvanah a spot... well, i have no words for this. She’s a nice person but not good enough for what SG is supposed to be. Then again, it’s not like SG is actually learning different combos now so I guess, why not?

Technique isn’t something you pick up after 18... if anything, it’s really hard especially if you spent most of your childhood/adolescence with poor technique. I know you meant well and I will give VK the fact that she’s really feeling it when she dances, which is what draws some people in -although, I find her constant grinning over emotional pieces quite inappropriate. However, this is a bit insulting to the girls who are extremely talented at lyrical-Erin and Lacey being two great examples, as they both struggled with power/dcc style precisely because they’re so flawless at lyrical and ballet.

Technique should be something you're learning from the moment you step foot into your first class.  It is something that should be CONSTANTLY practiced and refined.   Age is only a small part of things and, frankly, there are girls who are MUCH younger than Victoria who have impeccable technique because they put in the work.  From what I've seen of Victoria's dancing, she hasn't put in the work to really hone her technique and improve on it.  If she went on other auditions, she most likely wouldn't make it past the first round as there are too many better dancers.

I forget if she said she was asked but wanted to focus on DCC or if she wasn't asked to move on and used the DCC as an excuse as why she didn't move on.

A gal on one of the FB fan pages said she knew her, and asked her how it went.  VK told her that she had decided to focus on DCC instead.  No indication if she was asked or not.

Yes actually, I’d rather have her do a tutorial on how she gets her hair to look like that ( pre-curling). She looks much better with her straight hair too. 

Honestly, I get how they do their hair and makeup, it’s not much different than any of the tutorials you can find on youtube. BUT I want to know how they get their make up and hair to last throughout the game. Are they allowed to go back and fix them?

Rachel W’s hair is so beautiful, then again she is stunning anyway. I’d love to know how it’s cut also, since it looks so great straight also. I know they had Kat do a makeup tutorial, but I’d love for Rachel W to do one also, her makeup here is is great, and her eyeshadow blends so well. Yes, I know, #girlcrush.

Well kudos to those with "impeccable" technique  ..... still like her and she is still a DCC 😉

Yes, she is.  I'll stop now before I get myself in trouble.  I've gotten better about filtering what comes out of my mouth, but it doesn't always work.  I do appreciate the good debates even when we don't agree.

Yes, her technique is probably adequate for the majority of DCC routines and without her shenanigans the first year she tried out, she probably could have made DCC on her own just fine last year. The real problem is TPTB trying to convince us that she's all that and a slice of chocolate cheesecake to the world of dance and DCC.

To TPTB: Please just let her be a DCC without pushing her out there and trying to convince us she's the bestest of the bestest already. You're not doing her any favours.

I’m in Texas. It’s fine to be on the roads. In your car is no different than being in your house.  I drove several hours today just to look at wildflowers. 
 

I have lots of friends that have favorite bible verses. It’s not unusual, weird or anything else. 

I think it is great to get a fresh change of scenery... & Btw---I love wild flowers! And I'm in GA & it feel it is fine to be in ur car travelling down the road IMO it is the same as being in the house really...I don't know of a virus that can penetrate thru car doors! Lol --Glad u got to see the wildflowers! And I too have a couple fave verses....looks like we have alot in common! Oh and u love DCC just like me! I don't know u, but hey we do share a lot of the same viewpoints! So grateful for this board! I'm completely obsessed with DCC and MTT. Least I am not alone on this & I love reading all of these posts. Long time lurker, but just recently posting!

You can buy it just like she does. I find it extremely annoying that she doesn’t mention how much of her hair is extensions. 

I try to like Rachel W and think she would fit in the diamond. Maybe not triangle, but a diamond.

something though just comes off so snooty condescending and false with her though, and that whistle in her baby voice is super annoying.

I didn't even know there was such a thing as hair extensions until this TV show and they started pulling them out at makeover.   I guess I'm living a very sheltered life.

I always knew about hair extensions but it was only recently that I realized how many regular people I know wear them. It actually made me feel a lot better about myself lol, I used to think all these women had just naturally amazing hair.

Nothing wrong whatsoever with extensions, wigs, dye, fake lashes, veneers, boob job, whatever, just wrong to me when people deny them or act like they are all 💯 natural. 

You can kind of see when she shows how to clip the back her lines. 

She’s def a pageant girl who goes all out with the glam but ladies don’t think you can’t look more like this and that she woke up like that.

Well to be fair, all of them have something fake on them (boobs, nose, hair, eyelashes) and are covered in makeup and hair products. I don’t think it’s just Rachel.
