Yeah, I went there too.

[DCC93]

I just thought of something random, do y'all think DCC peaked? If so, what year? Last tears rookies barely got a following... In other years the girls would get thousands upon thousands of followers after the shows premiere

Also Alora Rose - no shocker, besides being portrayed is incompetent, which she is not, but it made a good story line, she just does not seem DCC personality and came off like an actress in a job, not like DCC was her reason for life.  I think she got an unfair edit. Sort of like Jackie Bob (forgive me for the comparison to Queen Jackie) being portrayed as struggling in camp. That was manufactured.

Right - Alora Rose did get a bad portrayal. She's got that vintage movie actress personality. A bit dramatic and emotional.  And that's just her. It's probably not the right fit for DCC, so she was always going to struggle and be an outlier. Good for her for walking away if she was being spun into a fake storyline or being portrayed in an untrue light. Lemonbus already mentioned with her resignation "another vet resigned. I’m sure the editing Gods will make it look like she was cut." Kelli loved Meredith but didn't care in the end. Same with Alora Rose. She is glad to give them the boot after a year, as long as she gets her storyline, we have certainly seen this play out many times in the past 16 seasons.

I know I am not with the majority here on the forums, but I really wanted Alora Rose to be a comeback kid, to prove everyone wrong. I admired her for being different and true to herself.

I read it at 1:30 there

It does seem some other places are getting earlier scoops than primetimer. Mel's cut, Jordann's and Kylie's cut, Group 4 group leader and 2nd group leader. Now Alora Rose? 
Next up - the newly injured veteran.

I’m just hoping the last cut is either Lisa, Kristin, Kat, or Jada. Jada should have never made the team, she’s too tall and sticks out

I love Jada! Yeah she’s tall but who would be the 50 yard line girl since Tess retired?
Her kicks are amazing and she’s a very lovely dancer who danced a little on the  soft side last year but I think she’s worked on that.  I saw a video on her in a prep class and she was rocking it! Also Claire helped her with her solo and from the picture they posted she looked fierce! 
She also seems very sweet and a good teammate.

There is so much drama this season, they better NOT make it an 8 episode season.

Give us the 15 episode season we deserve.

I wouldn't worry about the bolded. I think it's great that we all have different opinions. Makes everything more interesting IMO.

I'm definitely in the minority too when it comes to the girls I like on the team. I'm a big fan of Jada, Taylor J. and Rachel W. and most of this board seems to dislike all 3 of them. Doesn't matter to me LOL

Would love to see someone tell Kelli, "too late -- thanks, but no thanks," but probably something to do with asking for refs for a contract lawyer a while ago. New business venture, maybe?

I'm probably wrong here but what about Kashara? She definitely wasn't in SG her first two years and there was footage of her messing up during auditions (the backflip) which I thought was her third year when she started as 2nd GL and point.

Kat a GL?

Never!   I'm sure she's an amazing friend and brilliant in comforting and cheering someone up when needed but a GL needs much more than that. She seems to completely miss the tact, thoughtfulness and seriousness to lead, especially in situations were everyone is stressed and tired like in training camp.

That was her 2nd year. She made SG her 3rd year (Season 12)

Alora Rose posted today referencing national tequila day in a photo with Darian, then in the same outfit she posted a selfie tagging herself in Tulum, Mexico. I know Tulum is close to Texas but I don't think she is there. I think she is just playing with the internet lurkers 🤷‍♀️

 

In this post, it says Tulum Dallas, which is a restaurant in Dallas.

Don’t worry about who the faves are here. I’ve been TeamKristin since day 1 and I seem to be the only one 🤣

But with 15 episodes, the poor rookies won't be able to announce they're on the team the entire football season! They already have to wait until November (I think right before Thanksgiving?) -- a good half the season or more with 8.

I LOVE Kristin. Seems like one of the most genuinely good people on the team (hell, in the whole organization) and I think she's beautiful with those sleepy-looking eyes. LOL

Same I’ve been team Kristin since her first audition, I don’t care for her fiancé something about him rubs me the wrong way. She was def wronged last year by tptb. I’ve always felt they’d cut her so she’d be better off leaving as not to give them the satisfaction she’s better than that… *I could do without her incessant sponsor posts but that’s my issue not hers

It was Kelcey’s birthday the other day, at the time I checked creepy stalker guy hadn’t commented. I got a notification on Facebook about her birthday posts, so it made me re/m-check Instagram….he commented and made a new IG handle. Guy REALLY needs to get a life and get over it

I've watched to videos from Oxnard several times. My eye is always drawn to Marissa. I noticed several other things - why is Kelcey so hidden in both of these? I think she is a hidden gem. Also, I do like that a few of the girls are moved from front to back. I'm also curious as to why Claire is so hidden? I get it's a bide your time type of situation, but that girl can dance and she seems to have toned down and is looking to be in better shape - not that I thought she was in bad shape before, just fuller figured in comparison to their "standards". 

Kelcey is an amazing dancer. We've seen her be amazing. But I think she's always the softest looking dancer in showgroup, along with Erin. They both don't have the same punchiness as the rest. 

 

On another note, if the GL & 2nd GL post above is true, it's really bugging me that they put Erin with Gina (another blonde) and put Jaylyn with Caroline (darker hair). It would make so much more sense to me if Erin & Jaylyn swapped, for height too, not just hair colour. 

 

Re. Alora Rose, I feel like she just got a bad edit. I think her dancing was quite good. Definitely better than a few others in that rookie class...

We forgot Victoria will have her big return. Kelli is probably already planning on it and will give her a first group leader spot.

If Victoria comes back, (while I'm sure Kelli will welcome her back into training camp with open arms) she should not be named as a group leader. If she should make the team again, she would be considered a rookie who has to prove herself (having stayed in shape & kept her technique as good as or better then when she was a vet). While Victoria would not be totally starting from scratch, it would not be right for her to be given a GL spot over vets who stayed on the team. It would look bad for Kelli as there would be no denying the stink of favoritism and it would probably tick off a lot of the vets because, while some of them may like Victoria, I doubt they would be thrilled for her to just be handed a GL position right out of the gate. Kelli wouldn't be doing Victoria any favors making her a GL her first season back as it would just draw negativity to her.

As thrilled as I am to see Jalyn in a position of "power", my gut is telling me she was not their first choice... especially with Daphne and two other possible choices out (depending on who they were, of course).

You are probably right about that. And I'm sure that if Victoria hadn't taken this year off, she would have been one of the 2nd GL's (if not first).

[UnicornKicksBack]

I think the bloom is off the rose with VK and TBTB are over her. They gave her every opportunity to do better and more than anyone else every, and she was still straight drama. Personally I think it would take a miracle for her to be able to stay in shape and not show entitlement of "I've been here for 2 years already and grew up in DCC world", and i don't think any amount of maturity will fix that. She will prob end up an All Star but not regular DCC again.

Amen to that! Kelli let some great vets go for an investment that didn't deliver big returns!

I’m hoping for kat to be a group leader next year and to be point of the triangle in 2 years along with pro bowl cheerleader and veteran of the year 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think she would be considered a 3rd year vet.

Okay so now we know for sure that the injured person isn’t Lisa, Kristin, or Armani. That leaves us to Taylor, Madeline, Kat, Jada, Jessica, Dani, Elli, or Darian

Look I'm sure Alora-Rose is a nice person and she's one of the prettiest girls I have seen in DCC, but she shouldn't have made the team last year. I predicted that she was going to be the next Meredith and I was right. (or this might all just be a rumor, who knows?)

Good luck on her future endeavors :)

Rockettes are also back in person for the Christmas Spectacular so more New York opportunities could be opening up as well that she wants to jump on. 

Don't blame her or anyone else who used pro-cheer to keep dancing during the pandemic, gotta make your money some how and the dance world is pretty dog eat dog

Just noticed 3 cut TCCs are featured on Jenn Amburn's instagram, going to her classes this summer, I assume. They are all really good!
This must be "the greatest set of training camp candidates we have ever seen," right? 😄
