2021 Auditions, Finals, and Training Camp


Uk-Eve

Recommended Posts

A-R was hedging her bets, I would guess. A better opportunity probably popped up. Might be a big no no to do that in the NYC dance community, but unless she wants to do pro cheer again, probably won’t make a difference in her career unless she gets a horrible edit.  I assume they don’t sign the year long contracts until they officially make the squad, after camp?  
 

So maybe not the best thing for optics as far as DCC concerned, but best thing for her personally. She also might have thought the cameras and camp were better on the veteran side of things and found out not so much.

The videos of Amanda, Bre and Cailey in Jen's prep class confuse me because all three look amazing! They must suck at interviews or not look right (in Kelli's eyes) in the uniforms!

I love Ashley too, she seems so lovely and has loads of field experience.

It also could have been nerves and/or pace. The tcc candidates may have had it a little "easier" the past two years with getting some dances ahead of time, but I'm sure it's still very nerve wracking with all of the critiquing going on and the fast pace doesn't help any of that.

My guess is Kat or Chandi, with Dani moved way up. Rachel will probably be on the floor in front.

Here was last year's, in case people forgot (like me):

In the history of MMT we've only had five years in which the roster has been 36 (six if you include 2021)

2008, 2014, 2017, 2018, and 2020

All of them have a slightly different format for the squad photo, but 2017 and 2020 are almost identical in format. Personally I would use 2014's format since it gives two girls the opportunity to be the center (Kinzie and Holly) with another girl also getting the spotlight without being to far back (Nicole)

Oh you mean like, (off the top off my head):

Anything said during preliminary round? “The ‘nos’ are easy. Have they seen our uniform?”

Saying Brandy Kilby looked like a stripper?

Or Meredith Martinez’s “gummy” smile

Everything she said about Megan Martinez - she literally calls her ugly during makeovers (“She almost got cute”).

Calling Ike Irene untrustworthy for her social media photos (but allowing Whitney Isleib on the team after posting trashy photos to social media AND keeping her after she posted photos the infamous blackface costume).  

Blonde Stephanie’s “cankles” 

Shitting on Ashley Pro for being “stuck up”

Vivians “drumstick” legs

Accusing Colby of being all “shot up on Botox” before ever sitting down to talk with her face to face   

Every girl dismissed for being “fat” (Victoria of the early seasons-but NOT Victoria of the later seasons, Grace Lee, Elizabeth Reuter, Hannah West) 

And the one that still inflames me, coining “Thutt” in reference to the gorgeous Megan. 

You mean like that kinda stuff?

Good for Alora Rose! I know there are probably plenty of people going "what was she thinking?!" for leaving, but I actually respect her for it. Better to realize it's not your thing & leave for bigger & better things then to linger for years with the fear of being cut hanging over your head every season.

Only question I had if she felt the way she did why did she audition again for a second season !! Like Sydney knew dcc wasn’t for her so she retired after the one season

I feel like she thought she wanted a second season & then realized she’s just not into it & didn’t want to play the yes ma’am game anymore. I don’t think she intentionally tried out knowing she was leaving…

She really did pick on Ika, didn't she? There was something else during makeovers...Ika said something like "Could you believe I never had my hair done at a salon?" and Kelli answered with "I could believe it."  It was said in such a condescending way.

Expand  

That didn’t bother me as much as her “she doesn’t have the look of the girl next door … she’s more like the girl last night”.  How freaking condescending can you get.   

I’m not a Kat -fan (she’s too extra for me) but seriously.  Could they get a worse photo of her?!?!?

Daphne was Meredith's boot buddy.  Christina R was also in that family.

Do we know where the current rookies have landed within Boot Buddy families? 

  • Lexie - Madeline M - Claire W
  • Gina - Amanda - Dani
  • Tess - Erin - Jessica
  • Alexis - Taylor J
  • Molly - Jalyn
  • Miranda - Caroline
  • Amber M - Lisa

  • Cici - Elli
  • Maddie - HannahAlanna - Kat - Jada
  • Heather O Bridget - Kelsey
  • Amy L Lily - McKenzie
  • Ashlee - Armani
  • Rachel W - Kristin

Madeline S was with Ashlee in 2019, Ashlinn was with Caroline and Kelcey W in 2020, and Tori was with Rachel A, so she will end up somewhere new.

Is this the year they said they didn’t have many blondes?  I like the poses and layout here, but not the placement. So much dark hair clumped into the middle that it’s harder for ladies to pop. IMO, anyway.  Veronica, Nicole and Jacie are gorgeous and just blend in.

Even tho this pic is awkward, Kat is still so freaking pretty. I can see Kat herself using it for memes. Most of the “bad” DCC pics are like the one of poor Megan C, accidental double chins and all derpy.

The show hasn't started yet but these three girls are the cut tcc that I'm rooting for even-though I know they get cut.

Amanda - Her dancing from her IG posts are very strong. Maybe Kellie didn't like her look because she seems to have the DCC style. She's taking Jen's classes so I think she's considering to re-audition next year but who knows what will happen in a year.

Kylie - My personal favorite. She looks so cute. Her smile is everything. I don't know anything about her dancing though.

Ashley - I'm guessing she is the most liked cut tcc in this forum. Cute look.

Expand  

I really hope Ashley (LOVE her), Melanie (the Marissa look alike), and Amanda (for GSW dancer) re-audition.  Based on the videos I've seen,  they all have the DCC style and look down.  I'm very curious why they were cut.

RE: Brandi - 

{this episode is on now, so I can view and comment at the same time}

Kelli told her to do something about the nails at uniform fitting. The next rehearsal the same nails showed up. Kelli is expecting someone to say "how high" when she says "jump".  So, that was Strike 2, in Kelli's record book. The next day was makeovers, and I didn't see a great difference in her hair. They did talk about ideas at the salon. That night Kelli had pictures from "My space", so that was strike 3. Last Night.

I wonder did K&J update their policy book  cover finger nails. Meaning if they want the nails to be a certain polish/polished style and length (mainly to protect the dancers shoulders in the kickline).  Given how nail fashion has evolved since, if its not a written policy someone is bound to show up with those "talon style" mutilcolored nails. I don't think its been mention since about final color, length or style.

I'm pretty sure they (all TPTB) have upped their game on SM and background checks, since.  Usually someone manages to get caught in their nets.

All I hear is her vocal fry. I didn't realize how much Meredith annoys me until I saw this pic. And by annoy I mean she was one who definitely made the team bc she was a Kelli crush/pet project. She had great dance talent just not power pom. There were so many others over the years that were far more talented that were cut...

Anyone else watching the game? I’m loving them being on the sidelines again as we’re able to see a lot more of the girls more clearly although I felt a little bad for Darian as all you could see at one point was her ass doing “sexy hips” for a fair bit. 
 

but yeah glad to see them on the sidelines meaning we see more of them during the game. Admittedly being from the UK I only watch the cowboys game for the DCC and since my partner taught me what he knows about the NFL 3 years ago I’ve been a buccs fan since (was so happy when they won the Super Bowl, my partner is a packers fan and was not impressed😂)

Speaking of injury - is it common for one of the DCC to sit on a chair? I’ve noticed as it focused on one of the players & coaches one of the DCC sat on a chair in the background, although annoyingly the camera angle didn’t show her face so not sure who is sat out. Do they routinely give the girls a rest and get them to sit down or something?! I’ve never noticed that before when I’ve watched games

I think I read/heard somewhere it has to be a french manicure for game days/events. I'm sure there's something about length too. Don't want anyone to stand out for something like that/look different when in uniform.

I think they take turns -- so it's only one from a group at a time. If you didn't see them sitting down, most wouldn't know one was missing.

Could be a number of reasons. Maybe she auditioned to see if they would keep her? Maybe some of the other girls leaving inspired her to go? She could have been wavering about if all during the off-season and something took place in training camp that helped her make that decision. Hopefully we will see what happens during the show.
