While I'd love for this to be true, the fact that VK was the one chosen to take Gina's spot in Thunder makes me think otherwise. But if we're talking plainly, I think that VK has several things to work on before getting close to point. Dancing is definitely one. Makeup: get rid of the spider lashes, lighten up the under-eye liner, and use a more neutral lipstick. Hair: run a brush through it and smooth it out before curling, then don't backcomb and tease quite as much. She also needs to watch her figure and focus on a softer smile. Side note: even during her cameos (can't remember if it was season 13 or 14), Kelli made a point of saying that her "soft smile was pretty." So even she sees that VK's wide smile isn't very photogenic.

Yeah. While you can photoshop a picture to make her look good or, you can catch her at just the right angle, overall she’s got a look that’s hard on the eyes. And you’re right, whoever taught her to do her makeup should be ashamed of themselves.

I'm not a pageant glam fan.  I much more prefer a pretty, approachable lady who's got great dance technique and personality.  Like Bridget.

Same! I am so glad Bridget left with grace instead of staying and passing out again, going too far with procedures, etc. but damn wish she’d been point.

I was just going to say this. The girls are already getting cheated, just like everyone else, because of the circumstances surrounding this year. The show not airing won’t affect their experience. Some of the veterans may even decide things are easier without the cameras. 
 

I do hope the show airs. I am still a fan. I have enjoyed this forum because it has enhanced my knowledge of the team and process, which has made the show even more enjoyable. I think for all the negative stuff I read about here, there are many more positive things going on. 

Great post.  Took the words outta my mouth.

I might be in the minority, but I really like it with two up front.

I liked it too, especially seeing Ashton as one of the 2, I wish she stayed longer and becoming point her 5th season

I think I worded my post wrong, I should have used the term "eyecatcher" instead of glamour as eyecatcher is wider too see. My personal favourite DCC is Danielle and would have loved to see her as point (even tho she wasn't the strongest dancer). I found her eyecatching. (Beautiful and naturel)

Danielle was indeed very pretty.  She looked great on the opening video played on the jumbo screen.

I’m sure that’s true for many, but for those who find her views repugnant, it undermines the integrity of the organization that they’d use her as an ambassador for the brand. 

I agree. I loved her and miss her!

I miss so many of that rookie class honestly. Danielle, Kinzie, Jacie, Jordan, Jennifer Colvin, Jenna, Jessica, Kelsey B, even Jasmine who seemed a very good teammate

Can someone help Lisa find her neck? She looks like an evil hobbit. 

Yeesh! Lol that's not a good pic.

Sydney’s boo got cut from the team !! He didn’t make the final 53 man roster 

Well, THAT'S got to be awkward, especially since she left the Falcons for him and without a commitment from him.  I wonder if she'll follow him should he go somewhere else.  I wonder how Sydney quitting the squad will play with Kelli and Charlotte should she "follow him wherever he may go" (and yes, I sang that phrase as I typed it).

Agree!  That was the "golden age" of MTT -- before it became all about BS reality show drama.

Actually, I think Chelsea's surprise cut was the first example of reality BS.  However, she was also a poor dancer who I thought should never have made it to begin with (she also seemed like a Marissa -- someone who is all about the attention). But the way in which she was cut seemed orchestrated to enhance the drama of it all.

You don't think she deserved to be cut for her "explosion in the locker room"?  Notice that she's the only one mouthing off and all the rest of the vets that were called in were seen crying.

That was a good group!  I liked the rookie class right before that, too (I'm watching it on Pluto now).  Holly Arielle (who would go on to be point), Emma (who would be a longtime All Star), MaKenzie Lee, Brittany Schram, Aussie Angela, Courtney Cook, Amber Lea.

RE the Chelsea situation:   Wonder if Kitty showing up outside when she did was a "setup" by CMT/TPTB?

That bit always did feel "staged" to me. I feel that production probably witnessed the Chelsea "joking" stuff and told Kelli about it and they sent Kitty to get Chelsea to come in for the one on one. I do 100% think Chelsea was in this for the attention/to be a 'star' more than to be a cheerleader so it worked in her favor in that it made her memorable when I think, if not for that, she would be one of the blended/forgotten. So yeah, I think parts of it were staged for reality because I think Chelsea was more interested in being on a reality show than being on the team so she would certainly have played along.

I always got that feeling from Chelsea, tbh.  Which is too bad, because she really was a cute dancer.

Is this the one you are referring to?

*not sure why the thumbnail is Kelli with Queen’s star...that definitely isn’t what is linked or what comes up when you hit play. 😂

Willing to be this is an "unpopular opinion" but that's actually not half bad!!!  Was Kelli on Show Group during her time as a DCC?

She needs a new expression. That "I'm so fierce, I'll beat you down & bite your nose off" look is just not attractive -- and getting really old. All her pics are looking the same/giving the same vibe -- and it's not good.

I don't think it's so unpopular. Not only was she on show group, but, iirc, she was also a music major (instrumental) of some sort in college. Or maybe I made that up and it was marching band in high school. Whatever it was, I remember thinking it was interesting because it didn't seem like she had a strong dance background but something that required and built on a strong sense of musicality, rhythm, and movement. She had a few rough notes, but mostly I thought she had a lovely, effortless sound (and, as we still haven't recovered from the effects of Annie and American Idol, where loud is better than good, I'll take not making my ears bleed and not trying to blow the roof off with the power of your tone-deaf big voice any day (looking at you America's Got Little Vocal Talent).

ETA @SisterTab - I actually assumed that's why she was telling her [husband?] that's why she needed him to learn to play it on piano, so he could play it in a more appropriate key!

I felt bad for the other girls.  I don't think they were expecting Chelsea to play to the camera like that

Drum major for her high school marching band which is why she is so strict about lines.

Wonder about squad photo this year,,,  who will be up front, or will any be moved back?  Please, no vacant smiles in the front!  {Rachel W)

Do they have to social distance in the photo?  I know they all tested negative, but wearing masks and social distancing are required in any so-called safe environment.  It will be interesting to see.

She needs a NECK! When you’re short and squaty, you don’t pose for photos with your chin down.

I like the bright smile better than the whip your ass doom face she’s got going in those other pics, tho! 
 

What did Kelly ask Loren? If she had a catalog of expressions? Just a pleasant smile, please! 

Her smile is the only thing acceptable in that picture. She looks like she's a contestant in a body building competition, not teaching a dance class or whatever the picture is for. She doesn't look like a dcc to me.

I think you guys are being way too harsh about this.

I feel like this would be the perfect profile pic for her page on the prisonpenpals.com site, and I have complete faith that at least six creepy guys would put money on her books in return for nothing more than an exchange of scintillating conversation and a promise of engagement and conjugal visits upon her release to a halfway house in their home states. Especially if they believed the image was taken while incarcerated, with make-up luuk created by commisary pencils and flavorade and wardrobe designed by destroying state property, ill-advised cutouts explained by their being cut with a toothbrush fashioned into a sharp, hardened point. (ObTopic: "Hardened point" is a likely descriptor of the next triangle lead position. Sharp, not so much).
