She overlapped with Kelli, whose rookie year was 1984. Cami Branson was another potential legacy. She auditioned in 2015. Her mom Candy Causey was a DCC in 1983, which was also Judy's last year on the team. Neither one of them (Natasha or Cami) made it to finals. ETA: for the sake of completeness, Madeline Salter's mother was Shannon Hall. She was on the team 1987, 88, and 89. She overlapped with Kelli, whose last year on the team was 1988, and with Tina Kalina's whose last year on the team was 1989. Yeh... Natasha is the one who made the comment "yeh I know you like me" ... after she messed up I think 🧐She also made the "sorry Mom... guess I wasn't as good as you" or something like that. She gave a weird vibe. 7 Link to comment
mizzhyer June 14, 2021 Share June 14, 2021 I'm as shocked as anyone that Victoria is taking a year off ... I pictured her as a 6-7 yr member. That being said, I just have a feeling she won't return. There's not a thing that she's posted that has led me to this... just a vibe. 🧐 6 Link to comment

I do not think her break is this big dramatic thing like a pregnancy or anything like that. I think she gained so much weight that there was no way possible to get in the uniform and Keli told her privately to take the year off rather than embarrass her. I do think Keli cares about her. I think after she takes the year off she will realize after this year off that either she doesn't want it as much as she did at 18 OR she will realize that she just cant make her body fit the DCC Standard. 3 14 Link to comment

I think that is definitely the reason. I guess it would be considered "selfless" since she's not taking a spot away from another TC who is actually uniform ready. Kelli will take care of Victoria. At least Victoria will not have to worry about that much. I keep wondering if the other vets would have that option of a leave if they weren't uniform ready or just get cut. My guess is not. 1 4 Link to comment

I agree with this, as it was my initial thought as well, but remember it was mentioned that it had something to do with an apology. Why would she need to apologize for gaining weight? What could she have done that would need an apology? Maybe she snapped at Kelli for addressing her weight gain and keeping her out of appearances? IDK, just brainstorming. I wish her the best, just hope it's not something major. 3 2 Link to comment

In mid-April she performed with show group looking heavier in the middle which is her only problem area (by DCC standards only!!!!). Two weeks later she was not in the second show group performance. It's possible she was told to tone up and things spiraled from there. She tends to not eat carbs and do more strict measures to get ready for training camp. Maybe she decided it wasn't worth it this time (I tend to agree with her) and chose to focus on a heathy mind and body instead. 1 6 Link to comment

They obviously have some knowledge and experience but they are nothing like previous rookies reauditioning as vets. In some ways they are on the same playing field as the rookies coming in for the first time. It will be interesting to see how they do on the field. I think some of the returning rookies will get cut for this reason (perhaps Alora and Jada?). 12 Link to comment

She said something on her podcast this week about going to the CMT awards because she previously had been on a CMT show, “DCC.” It sounded very past tense to me. My hunch is she didn't agree with the editing - they would edit her audio clips to change her votes to "no" or "maybe." This was obvious with the Hannah cut last year, especially the show group audition. And I have detected some fishy editing of Melissa in re-watches of older seasons as well, particularly with cuts. They would use a clip of Melissa to build their case for a cut to further sell whatever story they created. But then Melissa kept coming back despite this, so I always figured she had a binding contract, and bills that needed to be paid. She has reached the point where she has served past her usefulness. TPTB have seemed to want to bring in all the big name choreographers now, as well as country music stars. Melissa has been featured so much, and isn't really a celebrity, so I wouldn't be surprised at all if they chose to mutually part ways. That being said, I am neutral on her. I kind of expect to see her back at some point since she is always seems to be around. 4 Link to comment

I haven't listened to any podcasts and only rarely check social media of the DCC circle, but I still think Melissa's audio clips were edited quite a bit in season 15, and have been in past seasons as well. Maybe Melissa doesn't mind the editing. Maybe she is happy to secure her paycheck by being a sound bite for TPTB's agenda. 1 Link to comment

On the podcast she and Scott both said Hanna's solo was dynamic and phenomenal though. They both voted for showgroup based on that but then changed their mind later after the practice sessions and media interview day. But because that was all out of order on the show, they had to change Melissa's "yes" to a "no" after the fact - hence the voice over. In reality - show group auditions happened very early in camp.

If Kelli doesn't get enough footage from the guests she wants featured on the show, she fills-in the gaps with Melissa. 1 5 6 Link to comment

Jazzhands June 16, 2021 Share June 16, 2021 5 hours ago, Donna S said: She also did the “Melissa & Tyrone” reality show on CMT. I always figured they created the "showmanship mentor" position for her at the request or direction of CMT because she'd had that show and also hosted or co-hosted some other reality contest type of show on CMT in addition to being known from the Bachelor franchise and DWTS. I don't know she's ever been any great shakes in the dance community, but I'd bet that she's more well known to the average CMT viewer than anyone else connected with the DCC. It seems to make sense from a cross-selling perspective for the network to try to bring in other viewers to this show if she's a known quantity to their regular viewers. I doubt they're worried about catering to the type of fans who are on this board because we're watching regardless and most of us probably aren't the target market for their advertisers. I know it's the only show I've ever watched on CMT. 5 8 Link to comment

G. “Buzz” Bissinger. It follows the story of the 1988 Permian High School Panthers football team from Odessa as they made a run towards the Texas state championship. It was later adapted for television and film. Yes, My family is all too aware of this book and the history behind it ~ we loved everything about it, esp. as it personally hit so close to home. I shared my original post one morning at work and was rushing through it; perhaps that I mentioned that "FNL" was derived from "a term", was not discounting the glory and credit from the book.
