Yes Erin was the vet not selected

Gina’s stomach 😳

There are only two plausible explanations:

1. She's photoshopping, to which TPTB should immediately intervene.

2. She's truly that thin, to which TPTB should immediately intervene.

No way should DCC allow someone that looks like this to be photographed in that uniform.

YEEEEEESSSSSSSS KAT, ARMANI, JAYLN, CHANDI, TORI, ASHLEE, AND DARIAN!!!!! I was hoping that Dani and Elli would make it this year.   Sucks for Erin.

Who knows, Kat finally took classes before the season and came back all powerful.

However, there is something about Kat we all can see and that is her ability to interact (not necessarily limited to talking) with people. Fun is her middle name.

Also, we should all be very careful to listen to Kelli talk about SG and assume that what Kelli says is actually true. SG is not a world class dancing team, but rather a collection of girls Kelli puts her trust in to represent DCC. Some past and current members were never world class dancers.

Or she's breathing in as that photo was taken and also stretching up which automatically pulls your stomach in. Yes she's thin but I see no issue with this post.

Maybe Erin had a time conflict with being in show group so she didn’t try out? I can’t see her not making it.

You know the only way to prove you’re better than LB is to give us more info … you know like the elusive missing cut 😏 🤪

[Lona]

My gosh, this is just ... actually so much to take in! 

FOLLOWING IS ALL PERSONAL OPINION OF COURSE 😉: 
 
Gina being (a) point. Tori making showgroup. BOTH Ashlee and freaking Chandi in a front formation. Seven WOC in showgroup. 

Let it be known. I still remain very frustrated and angry at many of the decisions made last season by Kelli Finglass. And I'm not going to pretend that this pre-season has been 100% enjoyable for me, what with spoilers kept secret, and I don't agree with every decision revealed tonight. Kat on SG and Erin left out is kind of 🥴 to me, but I digress.

I welcome MANY of these recent developments, and if this is some odd way for TPTB to say "sorry, but we're trying," then I feel it would be wrong for me to at least not acknowledge it. 

I know I'm only speaking for myself, but maybe just maybe some of last season's wounds are finally starting to heal.

Kat on showgroup and Erin not, isn't really that surprising to me. Showgroup don't really do any other dances than the ones they already know, they aren't doing 1hr long shows for USO tours anymore. Once they get the dances downpat, it's all about power and Kat gives that. Erin is a little blah to me. 

I'm so happy Chandi and Ashlee are in the triangle. 

[Kamal]

I know people will roast me for making this comment but I wanted either Ellie or Dani over Jayln for SG.

Dani is the next Rachel in beauty!! (But with better eyes!)

Team Dani. Beautiful and great dance style. 
 

Edit: Still very happy for Jalyn! Her SG cut broke my heart. Glad she bounced back :)

No, it’s not photo shopped, she really seems to be that thin. See the DCC post by DCC Oracle on page 53….. and frankly, I am worried…..

[parrotfeathers]

Just saw the episode yesterday with Jalyn running to the locker room.  Glad she has been forgiven for her "unprofessional" (per Kelli) behavior.  Kelli was really in a snit over that.

All of this. It hasn’t been all of the best dancers for a while now, and probably never was. But she’s always going to pick up the best known as soon as she can for appearances sake. Sometimes they’re also dancers with some pop (Maddie, Kashara) but also those that have the Instagram followers and are fan favorites (VK, Kat.)
 

I’m willing to bet some of the more popular DCC are requested by name (“oh I just love the show and was soooo happy VK/Maddie/etc. made it! Please tell me she’ll be there!”) and it makes sense to have them on SG.  

Any decent marketing person is going to want the faces people know to get the most bang for their appearance buck. And thus some will be “rewarded” with show group despite not being technically trained.

Savannah never made Show Group. But Kat has 😏 Savannah wasn’t the best dancer either. But she definitely was a great ambassador, enough to be on Show Group. After all, it’s not about the best dancers anymore, right? Lol

Man, I'm dying to know if Madeline S. got cut or not ugh

Ugh haven’t been on in weeks, I’m so behind 😂 have we discussed that we think Alora Rose was cut? Bc if we haven’t, she’s definitely not in Canton which points to a cut imo

Honestly, I would think that no matter why she's so skinny, TPTB would block her from posting something like this. They want their girls to be "role models." To me, this isn't that, it's (at best) someone unintentionally promoting an unhealthy body type. A lot of young girls look up to the DCC and want to emulate them. It makes me 🥴 to know that this is what they're seeing from such a decorated, adored, and promoted veteran as something they should strive to be.

I adore Savvy, but I don’t think she’s one of the better known with strong social engagement…and it seems like that’s a big qualifier when they’re picking these days. Perhaps a strategy shift. She has 25k followers, but hasn’t posted since May on her personal account. 
 

She’s one of the first I would pick for a military event, or any one on one interaction tho! Honestly a shame she didn’t make SG. 

[Lexusprincess]

Kat made show group and Erin did not.  How???  Kat is beautiful  but her diarrhea of the mouth with no filter is not cute or a great ambassador.  
She is not a great dancer.  

happy to see Jayln back and Tori, McKenzie and Armani make it

 

it will be interesting season.

YES - my point exactly.  They need to put a stop to this, like NOW.

Does she have bruising on her hip area? I'm still trying to figure out how her shorts are staying up. (Yes, I like Gina, but this photo does not do her any favors.)

Like Lauren - worked a full time, stressful job as a nurse, but was able to work out, dance, spend time with friends, travel, etc.  Why not do both if you can?

Well........love and respect Lauren 1000% but have to be honest, she went part time at the hospital, and then went to that DCC plastic surgeon person they all work for's office so not like she was doing four 12s a week in the ER. Honestly, I would have done the same thing, too. Nursing will always be there for ever, there are so many career options, and her dancer body will wear out sooner or later. She did the right thing.

No Caroline? WTH? Love Amber, yall know i'm not impressed with Lexie but not fair to demote her. Actually I like Amber in this triangle bc i think Gina and Lexie both look worn out and past their expiration date TMKelliFinglass. Gina just looks way too lean and Lexie always has looked outdated and fried haired.

Chandi and Ashlee, I want to be more impressed with them, but I'm just not. I don't think either are as glam as Rachel, but about all three equal on dance level. Ashlee may have more showmanship. 

Still far better triangle than the Amy/Maddie mess that i will never get over. 

I would have opened with Rachel/Caroline/Jalyn/Lexie then switched to Gina/Amber/Ashlee/Kelcey.

Still rooting for Armani to make it up there. She's as firecrackery as Amber and Gina.

She goes not look like a real person with whatever facetune bodytune photoshop extreme mess she has done to herself in this photo. Makes me sad for her. 

Also I get Kat on showgroup for Ambassadoriness. She can talk to a tree stump and is gorgeous. I do not see taking Erin off though especially if she's a second group leadre. Need more info on that one.

They probably charter.  My sister flew for Northwest (when it existed) and she did NFL charters all the time, and rock stars.  But they had to sign non disclosure agreements to work those flights.

My dad flew the Northwest charters.  He flew NFL, NHL, and NBA teams!  The food service was the best!  The DCC probably fly charter, on one of Jerry’s jets.  Most likely they don’t eat on board.  I’m curious what they DO eat!

Thank you LB! I'm so happy for Chandi being up front with Ashlee! That's crazy how every single year she just comes back better and better. Yay for Tori!! I know for sure that Ashlinn and Tori made the team,but won't someone out there put me out of my misery with news If Madeline S made it or not! 😭

This year’s show group gets announced and a few days later both Alora Rose and Lisa resign.

Alora is besties with Darian who made SG this year. 

And Lisa must of had SG as a goal. She is definitely one to always move the goal post farther and farther. I don’t think she would fake an injury, but certainly not getting SG made it easier to resign.

Okay Gina needs to use filters to add weight I don't think even Daphne looked this scary skinny during the swimsuit shoot a few years ago. How have TPTB not told her to STOP with the filtering of her body to what she posts. I'm hoping she's actually not as skinny as she looks, wow...
