I think Kat is a shoo-in to make the team again this year, along with Ashlee, Rachel, Taylor, Dani, etc. I don’t think Kelli would put a girl on the cover of a calendar if she was ‘on the bubble’. Of course anything could happen (Holly, Erica come to mind) but those would be out of the ordinary circumstances. As it stands, I bet Kat makes the team. Which I love cuz I am TeamKat 150%. 
 

Edited to add - shame about Amanda. She was obviously a fave (with Kelli, and also with this board) but the tides turn quickly.

Ok quoting myself because I saw this pic a while ago, and I just think a calendar full of shots like this would be so much more interesting than a swimsuit calendar. (Link for the pic below)

This image makes me giggle as it looks like the DCC are doing "sexy hips" for the cattle!

It was the same clip, shown on different episodes and at different times, in order to convince you she deserved her cut.

Reality TV should never, ever be trusted. 

I saw different clips from different days, in different outfits and dances. More than one shot of her rushing or behind, with other ladies hitting the correct timing.  First field practice, show group auditions, practice room in small groups.  We can agree to disagree, but her usually fierce dancing looked weak and at times boring.

Have we ever had an ex-Texan make DCC?  Some of these girls are kinda "non-photogenic" and some would give Rachel W and Kat a run for their money!

She was definitely on my come on over list!

Fairly certain one of the current DCC or only recently retired was a Texans cheerleader 

 

edited to add - ignore me 😂 I was thinking of Briana but she was previously a Titans cheerleader

It's one of the silliest things I've ever seen.  If stuff like this is necessary, pose them at the Stockyards or wherever.  The mere suggestion they're dancing alongside a cattle drive is so very beyond ridic, why go to the trouble of the editing work?

Is this in Dallas? Looks like a FW/Dallas combo pic? 

For sure looks like a combo, like they photoshopped the Stockyards in FW.  It's been a minute since I lived in Fort Worth, but I legit don't recognize half of those buildings and some of the other ones don't look like they belong where they should.

That said, there are some amazing locations that could work for a calendar shoot within an hour drive of DFW.  And there are plenty of gorgeous sunrises and sunsets to be had too.  And on top of that, it's not like Texas has many covid restrictions at all, and I've had multiple friends that have traveled to the Bahamas and Mexico both from DFW this year (they're nuts, but YOLO I guess.)  So this seems like pure optics but they're shooting themselves in the foot too IMO.

Is there anyone who isn't in either calendar? I think Amber and Alora-Rose look like they miss out, yet some get two pics and/or a cover! I definitely prefer the shots with the poms, they're more like stills following dancing and look much more natural!

Dang that sucks! To feature everyone but two girls when some are featured multiple times just seems wrong.

Totally agree- it would be cool to showcase some of the unique landscapes Texas has to offer! I think the SI swimsuit edition did some photoshoots in Wyoming in recent years that could be good inspiration. 
 

I found this video that makes it look like the bulls and cheerleaders were all together- they may have edited the skyline though (I’m not from Dallas)

The makeup and especially the ruby red lipstick on everyone is terrible.  Whose aesthetic could that be? It’s garish. 
 The eyelashes on some of the women are so awful. It’s not flattering to have obviously synergetic eyelashes brushing your eyebrows and cheeks. 
A lot of them look like their makeup was done by someone with a performing arts background. Makeup to be seen rather than makeup to enhance.

fail. Blech. 

I know it sounds awful but that red lipstick and the huge (unflattering)toothy smile reminds me of The Joker... Ruby red lipstick is tricky; few can actually pull it off and wear it with grace, so that choice is just plain stupid. A good makeup artist looks at complexion, eye colours and facial features when determining the colours and will enhance those or tune them down a little for the occasion in mind.

Some of those girls could do with a visit to a good hair salon! I'm pretty sure that the DCC jury would have sent a lot of them for a huge make-over if they had been auditioning for the DCC!

The coast of Texas isn’t all that it smells I think they are moving away from doing swim suit calendars 

I actually wouldn't mind if they moved away from doing swimsuit calendars. What if they did photos of the girls at various locations around Texas? They wouldn't even have to be limited to being at just well-known places. Maybe doing something like horseback riding, checking out a museum, a wine tasting at a local vineyard or an elegant night out at a performing arts center. Being in a bathing suit on a beach isn't the only way to look sexy. I also think they need to bring in new photographers. It seems like they've used the same older guys for the last few years and it might be time to bring in someone with fresh eyes, a new perspective and more innovative ideas.

I still only see one mistake. Being demoralized and worried about COVID protocol probably did make her less precise, but nowhere near enough to justify her cut.

Except that this is the DCC we're talking about, and they like to cut people purely for the drama it creates on camera.

Im wondering also if they ladies themselves were doing stuff they weren’t suppose to when they had their personal time example going into each other’s rooms and hanging out !

I think Mel may be cut.  A friend of hers in Missouri tagged her 4 hours ago with a picture of them together and the caption “love when I run into her” at the Lake of the Ozarks.  If so I’m sorry. I was routing for her. 
 

She could have been for sure

Guys I’m sorry, as much as I loved Hannah on the team, there were so many clips of her where she looked awkward when she was dancing last season.  And only so much of that can be contrived.  And we talk about Gina’s facials, but… umm… Hannah’s facials just as bad or worse.

K & J cannot make her dance poorly, and neither can CMT.

 

please don’t hate me

I don’t hate you and agree with 100%!!

Is this the third year in a row where Rachel W. ended up on the cover of one of the calendars? I get that she’s super photogenic but I was kinda hoping they would switch things up and give some other girls a chance to shine

I’m really surprised that that they didn’t somehow find a way to fit VK into it!  I know she didn’t return this year, but still, she’s the one and only bestest DCC in Kelli’s eyes!  Maybe that’s what the VK/KF conversation was about...she was told if she “took leave” or even retired , she’d be out of the calendar, which I could see would result in a petulant or ticked off VK.

Except Kelli is such a control freak, I'm not sure how much new photographers would help. Kelli knows best, after all.

Its like they have their field performance make-up on for studio photos. Not a good look at all, I cringe at most of them and they’re prolly stunning irl.

I volunteer myself. That way, I'd be able to become an insider too 🧐

This is definitely Dallas - specifically downtown (Main St District/Farmers Market) at the intersection of Commerce & Cedar Chavez, facing West. It appears both DCC and cattle/cowboys were all photoshopped in - neither group's light source matches that of the buildings, objects in the background. Google Street View link for those interested:

It sounds like makeovers are this Monday and Mel was definitely cut. 

That’s what is being said on Reddit, I wonder if we will get to see the rookies from 2020 get makeovers too or if it will just be the 2021 rookie tc candidates. That would be interesting to find out! Anyways here is the updated chart Aytol posted on Reddit showing Mel’s cut.
