MirabelMadrigal August 19, 2020 Share August 19, 2020 Now I'm wondering if Brennan inadvertently did something to upset her Boot Buddy VK. K & J put Brennan in the impossible position of being VK's Boot Buddy in the first place. I feel so sad about this cut. 16 Link to comment

Popular Post javajunkiee August 19, 2020 Popular Post Share August 19, 2020 Kelli's hypocrisy never ceases to surprise me. She talks about the importance of the "the total package" and "the contract" and "good team members", but then allows poor dancers, toxic team members, and fraternization. She won't back up her own words with actions. #timetoretire 36 Link to comment

Kitkatkitty August 19, 2020 Share August 19, 2020 Lily I'm sad about but not too shocked, she probably just got out-danced. Brennan is super sad because she was such a great ambassador but I can kind of get my head around it especially if she is still recovering from illness. Hannah is Kat's boot buddy... so there was probably some drama there that contributed. 5 7 Link to comment
Amandared August 19, 2020 Share August 19, 2020 To quote Sue Sylvester I AM ENRAAAAGED. Don’t get me started on my Brennan that’s some sociopath level shit to kick off training camp then cut her. 24 Link to comment
Jess14 August 19, 2020 Share August 19, 2020 (edited) I’m stunned by the Hannah cut. She was a star. I’m not surprised about Lily or Meredith being cut. Brennan - I understand the cut in terms of dance, but it seemed like she really made her mark on the team in other ways, so I am surprised. At least, she got 2 years. 4 veteran cuts is kind of a bloodbath. That’s the most since season 8, right (counting Chelsea)? ETA: I guess season 12 had 4 cuts, if you count Erica with Raylee, Heather, and Allie. Edited August 19, 2020 by Jess14 14 Link to comment

kalibean August 19, 2020 Share August 19, 2020 I’m so, so bummed if Hannah is true. In hindsight, I’m right there with the poster who says it’ll usually make sense once the show airs, but she’s been SG since her rookie year and is such a lovely human. Maybe weight gain? I know not everyone is a fan of her backside in the shorts, tho I think she’s fit and awesome. Or an injury that she can’t get past? Too political in her Instagram stories? Sigh. Some of these rookies look amazing, but I can think of other weaker or boring dancers to drop ahead of Hannah. I’m sad about Brennan too, but assuming she just got out danced due to her illness. I was a little surprised she came back for her third year just due to the stress on her body and balancing work, but shows how much she loved the team. And I always thought she was a lovely dancer once she got out of her own way. 8 Link to comment

TUOwl84 August 19, 2020 Share August 19, 2020 I’m so sad to hear about Hannah! She was one of my faves. I’m wondering if it wasn’t anything dance related that got her cut. Perhaps she was late to events last year. Either way my heart breaks for her. I know she has had mental health issue in the passed and I hope her being cut doesn’t effect it. 💛 I’m not shocked about Meredith or Lily’s cut. Those were honestly to be expected given this years strong Rookie candidates. Brennan, although not totally surprised. It was great to see someone a little older and mature on the squad. 9 Link to comment

I have never been Hannahs biggest fan simply bc i find her look unattractive,but i cannot take away the woman is an amazing dancer and one of the best on this team.

MirabelMadrigal August 19, 2020 Share August 19, 2020 During this pandemic, cutting the Covid survivor (I know we don't know for sure, but that's what I believe) is outrageous. The fact that Brennan was even able to regain her strength and return to TC is incredible. The girls are going to have very limited ability to dance during games this season, IMO. Why cut someone who is a Covid survivor who may not have completely regained stamina yet, if there won't even be much dancing this season? If anything it would have been such a victory story for the show and the organization. I do not get it at all. 18 Link to comment

EricaShadows August 19, 2020 Share August 19, 2020 (edited) I can understand Lily's and Meredith's cuts because Meredith shouldn't have made the team in the first place and, other then Meredith, Lily was one of the weakest dancers/performers on the squad. I can't understand Brennan and Hannah. To cut two of the most beloved girls on the squad, beloved by both the other girls and by the fans (well, most of them), is just outrageous and more so if their cuts were due to DRAMA. Brennan and Hannah should just walk away and never look back, never mention DCC again and any success that Kelli tries to say was because of their time on the squad should be met with a "No, I actually worked my butt off for this and it had NOTHING to do with my time on the DCC" or something similar. Brennan's cut is especially heartbreaking, but it fits Kelli's pattern of making Brennan the sacrificial lamb for whatever girl Kelli wants to keep that year.

I agree 100% about the group thing and they could possibly use it as another justification because the more tenured girls didn't keep their rookies in check last year or some other BS. I think Charlotte has become more interested in the TV show than in the actual squad. DCCMTT has turned from a show about reality, into a reality show and they will do anything to cause drama. Even though most of us are genuinely just interested in the process of making the team. 1 minute ago, DutchDccFan2.0 said: Oh Victoria gets the blame, what a surprise, she gets hated for breathing.

I was always surprised that Judy and Kelli put them in the same group. I’m not surprised Lily and Meredith were cut. Hannah and Brennan though?! Hannah seemed like such a strong technical dancer and Brennan seemed to bring a maturity to the group. I am shocked because those two were not even on my radar of having issue! Why would you cut two strong vets in favor of weak vets and rookies? Besides Kelcey, Amanda and Chandi, last year’s rookies were kind of 😴. 27 Link to comment
