BossKeyBlessed December 30, 2020 Share December 30, 2020 I’m sure this will be unpopular but Kristin’s solo she posted is horrible. Just because someone WANTS to speak out against social justice (And most of us do!) and chooses a particular “song” to play, does not make a dance performance good. Kudos to Kristin for what she tried to do… some of her dance moves were good. But no one can say that she did the song justice. The judges reaction on the show was live and immediate after they saw it with the correct music. No conspiracies to taint Kristin...It just wasn’t good. This is supposed to be Show Group auditions, not a social justice performance art gathering. Also, like EVERY other dance on the show, they can’t use the actual music she used because of that artist’s licensing prohibiting them to do so, so CMT has to pick something else. What other music would you have chosen to go with such a strange solo?? 2 12 Link to comment

They said her timing was off and that’s why it wasn’t good and then the song they used in the clip was also not good for the scene to further “prove” their narrative. Usually when any dancer has a slow contemporary song regardless of copyright issues they always air the scene with a slow contemporary song and hip hop song with a hip hop solo or pop/r&b song with jazz solo. 3 21 Link to comment

I found the number 1 issue to be that they didn’t even mention on the show what the solo was about and it’s true meaning, from the clips I saw. I have a hunch Charlotte wasn’t wild about it because she seems like a very privileged and conservative person who doesn’t like to support causes that may not be profitable or popular with her fan base. For once Neil McCoys opinion I took more seirously than a dancers like Kellis or Judys 😂 On another note, credit to Cassie Trammell for sharing this. I notice Judy also wasn’t impressed with Kristens solo so I commend Cassie for going against the grain and not just continuing to drink the look aid.

Obviously most of the time they can’t use the original music because of royalty, but to purposely overlay music that makes Kristin look off is insane (yes, they did that). Kelli told Hannah that her solo was one of the strongest when they were cutting her. Imagine sacrificing health, safety, time, to go into a bubble last minute, in the middle of a global pandemic, only to watch the women who are supposed to lead you with grace and positivity, tear you down because they didn’t like the message your dance sent. Interesting that they didn’t show the judges’ comments about not being the least bit impressed with another “white girl” hip hop from Maddie. Interesting that they left Claire W get away with wearing a potato sack for her solo dance when they have cut vets for doing the same. This show is actually ludicrous. P.S. how are you calling this a bubble when you are leaving the hotel to go to the stadium where there are public tours happening at the same time as filming???? I have to disagree with you about something... Claire W, her solo, her dancing, her feet, her extension can dance in anything! The girls who got cut for wearing a sack of potatoes outfit got cut for weight. Not their costume... if they danced like Claire W of course they would keep her!!! 5 Link to comment

She probably thinks it is wonderful the show is getting so much attention because we are talking about it. She has really hurt so many of the girls this year. Wonder what her children think of her? Better yet I wonder how she would like it if it was her daughter getting hurt? Kelli works in an organization where her narrow minded views are supported and championed. Put her in a leadership position in a Fortune 500 company and she wouldn't make it 90 days. 18 Link to comment

Domino9062 December 30, 2020 Share December 30, 2020 I believe ( Correct me if I am wrong) That both Charlotte and Kelly have some roll on the actual show as far as executive producers. So if this Is the case- they knew exactly how they were editing this and how they were taking a solo that had a meaning / message and butchering it. Makes me wonder if this was another message or a solo by a different person - would the treatment be the same.... Let’s say they didn’t have a part in editing- you know they saw the episode prior to it airing and at the LEAST should have gone to Kristen and warned her. All the supportive comments on Kristen’s ig account also make me wonder if some who were NOT going to retire may change their minds. 20 Link to comment

I think it was a huge error on their part to make her solo that is about systemic racism and injustice look bad. also, can the show please stop pretending they were adhering to guidelines?

Tonight for instance, when they were announcing SG members all of the girls were wearing masks. If the staff has to, what makes it so different for them not to wear their masks at all times as well?

Popular Post Tuxcat December 30, 2020 Popular Post Share December 30, 2020 (edited) All of the Melissa R. commentary tonight was done in the outfit she wore in last week's episode. In the show group judges grid she is wearing a longer sleeve orange shirt with blue earrings and her hair down. But all the commentary is done in a sleeveless red shirt with dangly blue hoops (last week's episode) and hair up The comment about Marissa being a rockstar - VK being point - Alora Rose dancing next to VK.. all of them. I guess that is more evidence to add to the incredibly scripted nature of this show. Edited December 30, 2020 by Tuxcat 11 17 Link to comment

Did they not consider the ramifications of editing and harping on it specifically? Kristin is on the team - they don't have to build a story for her. So the big question - did Kelli and Charlotte know this was the direction MTT took? So true. Yes, Kelli and Charlotte know this was the direction MTT is taking since they are executive producers. This makes it even more crazy. Kelli and Charlotte took a no win scenario when they could have easily just bunny-hopped over this hot potato.

I am on #TeamKirstin but I agree there is a clear distinction between speaking out on issues (which is good), the time and place one chooses to do so (which could be counterproductive) and the actual way how this speaking out is executed. It should be very clear to Kristin that this performance just flew miles over Kelli's and Charlotte's head and as always when these two mental midgets don't understand something they disapprove of it. 21 Link to comment
