Concerns expressed are understandable but I think we have to give her credit as a dancer athlete and veteran that she knows what she is doing. This is not necessarily true -- there are plenty of anorexic dancers (and other athletes) who continue to have endurance and give great performances for years until their body finally gives out on them -- heart damage, joint damage, osteoporosis, etc. I'm not saying Gina is anorexic, but having the endurance to do a football game and do outstanding solos doesn't mean she isn't either. Her pictures are worrying (but, again, hard to tell from pics alone), but as someone else said, you see the ribs of all the girls in these types of pics. What bothers me in this pic, is this very bony bone jutting out. This is not seen in all of other girls. Does it mean something is wrong? Who knows. 2 1 Link to comment

My thoughts are that undernourished or anorexic people would not have the energy to sustain the level of performance we see from Gina particularly over a 4 hour game. I remember Bridget passing out in the kick line at rehearsal because she had missed a single meal and Kelli lecturing them all on making sure they ate before rehearsals and games. The pictures I see of Gina's ribs are always when she is animated and fully extended with arms above head and body elongated. They are often just as visible on the other girls in that pose as well. Yes, she is thin, lean and athletic but anorexic and undernourished no. 1 Link to comment

To be fair, the community didn’t randomly bring it up. A very trusted and reliable insider did. I get where you’re coming from and have struggled personally with the ethics of continuing to discuss it, but some of the photos are a bit alarming and after all — this is a forum dedicated to discussing the ladies.

kalibean August 20, 2021 Share August 20, 2021 As much as I would like to see more awareness about being underweight as being overweight on the show, I don’t have faith in TPTB to handle it properly based on Kelsey’s first camp in season 6? 7? If anything, I hope they did an off camera uniform check and just told Gina that she was looking too slim on camera, and to get back to her audition weight. Aka bootie like a shelf and less sinewy. 7 Link to comment

That's laughable (that if there are concerns within DCC, they'll come to light on national tv -- at least I hope Kelli would have the decency to do it in private). If it becomes a performance or publicity problem (or Kelli decides she doesn't like how she looks), they'll address it (hopefully in private). Do I think she is anorexic? No. Do I think she is over exercising (and probably not getting the proper nutrition for all that exercise)? Her stomach area sure looks like it. Does that means there is a problem? Who knows. For better or worse, this is a DCC forum and the girls looks, actions, etc. will be scrutinized and picked apart. Gina's not the first and won't be the last. Right or wrong, it's going to happen. If it's really bothering someone, this is probably not the place to be. 14 Link to comment
MadHatter August 20, 2021 Share August 20, 2021 I'd like to clarify that I am not particularly concerned with if Gina has an eating disorder, or if she is simply overexercising, or whatever is going on with her health. She has more than enough resources around her to diagnose and treat any medical or mental issues without me dissecting what I think is going on with her on an internet forum. I also find that kind of speculation a bit uncomfortable, as someone who previously struggled with an eating disorder but whose body didn't fit the normal image of said disorder. It just goes to show that what's going on with people is not normally diagnosable by anyone looking in without insight from the person it's going on with. My issue is the issue that Gina's body type sends to young girls. While Gina is an extremely talented and skilled dancer, she is quite thin these days. I know lots of young dancers look up to the DCC and seek to emulate them, and I do not want them trying to become so thin when that may not be their natural body type and could be highly detrimental to their health. 9 Link to comment

I was really surprised to see Lexie do a 5th year, considering her years on the Mavs. I often think those who've not come from other NFL/NBA teams stay longer. I think Gina, Lexie, Erin, Taylor, Madeline and Kristin will retire after this season, possibly Kat, Jalyn, Caroline and Jessica too. I could potentially see someone like Claire retire too as I imagine there will be more dance jobs going during the next year if everything returns to 'normal'. Rachel will stay so she can have solo point but I would love to see Ashlee given a shot, maybe with Amber/Chandi/Kelcey in the diamond. I wonder if any of the new rookies will be a one and done. I don't know enough about any of them to know! It will be interesting to see on the show who is super strong and who just squeaked into the final 36. I wonder if Lisa and VK will make it back too. VK is basically a shoo-in but I've never really been a big Lisa fan either but TPTB seem to like her. Will Daphne return or is she done for good? 7 Link to comment
