Perhaps hip hop by a DCC just isn't my cup of tea and I've been unfair critiquing Maddie's style of it. Because I didn't care for that other girl's either. She was a great "what do you think of me now" TCC and did really well during her tenure. Never heard anything she said or did to put DCC in a bad light. She was a great representative of the brand. I hope she has a very happy life in her retirement. Frankly, I would have never returned had Neil McCoy said that about my "look." I wonder if he ever said anything to her about it (like an apology). I fully agree with almost all you said apart from the bit where you called her a great representative of the brand. She was a great DCC with a lot of spunk. She was unique, which I liked about her.But a great representative? Just plain...No! A representative can represent a brand, which includes interacting, being a good leader and being able to speak. Maddie could look very awkward and uncomfortable when she was addressed or received praise. Where JennK and Kashare were natural speakers, Maddie always seemed at a loss for words, frightened even to speak up. I highly doubt she would have been able to speak on behalf of the entire team with guests or when out and about as a team like Kashara and Jenn could.Even as a group leader she seemed to fail when speaking to Kelli and Judy about her group. That scene where the four group leaders came in to talk about their rookies still makes me cringe when she couldn't put into words why Brennan should make the team. Kash stepped in and saved the day there, but it was Maddie's job to represent the girls in her group. Edited September 21, 2021 by LilyD spelling 1 15 Link to comment

I understand it's heartbreaking to have to let go of a dream but she wasn't being realistic. She's not even 25-years old and her knees are destroyed. I feel bad for her but trying to push through training camp did not seem like a wise choice at all. I personally think they should eliminate the jump split and go back to the fan split. The jump split is just too dangerous. I also think the leg lift and hair flip is stupid. I think the fan split is prettier than both the leg lift and jump split. ETA: Fan split (I don't know what it is actually called) at 2:45 With the talent and precision they have today, this could be a very visually appealing element and certainly a lot more safe. Also, justice for the dip front shorts! Thanks for sharing this video! Wow you are right that the fan split is really pretty. I wouldn't mind seeing that brought back over the jump split if it meant saving the girls from possible injuries. 8 Link to comment
Bellisima08 September 22, 2021 Share September 22, 2021 7 hours ago, CrazyInAlabama said: I do think that during the auditions, or on videos, there should be a requirement to have high kicks, and do a split easily, or they shouldn't even consider that person for a tryout. I totally agree and I think Judy even brought it up once on the show. I don't recall when, but I believe it was back in their valley ranch days (just before the Star was completed) where Kelli & Judy had just released a girl from TC who they liked, but had low kicks and after the girl left the room Judy said something like "we really shouldn't take them into training camp if they can't kick high at the start". I think it was also brought up one year during auditions where one of the guest judges said something about not letting girls into TC if their kicks weren't high enough. So clearly there has been talk about that, but a lack of consistency in enforcing it. Sometimes I believe the reason they overlook it is if the girl is a strong dancer or they really like her and they hope she will improve during TC. Other times I wonder if they keep them because otherwise they would not have enough candidates in TC if they kept out all the low kickers. 1 7 Link to comment

I feel that it may have a tiny bit to do with how MacKenzie Lee (Season 6) developed. Her kicks were super low and she was super short, but so pretty that they didn't want to cut her and kept her to see if her kicks could somehow improve because she was good at literally everything else. And they did improve. Sometimes a girl can get better over time, so that may have something to do with why they take them on anyway. Some girls don't get that same grace extended to them, though, because they may not be as glamorous, or may have other deficiencies, like trouble with choreo/memory retention, etc. However, we all know TPTB aren't always consistent with their decisions of who they give a chance to and why. 13 Link to comment

I have to agree and I’ve been a long time defender of Amy because she seems like a friendly team mate and like a genuinely lovely person. unlike others I personally don’t find her dancing boring, I think she is cute, bubbly and technically strong. However I agree she lacks that extra quality point requires and believe her dance training and tenure was the reason she was picked for point. I think Heather had more spunk and was just as talented. Any combo of Maddie, Heather or Gina I reckon could’ve shared point. 7 Link to comment
Weeklydcc September 22, 2021 Share September 22, 2021 I hope Kelee sticks around. She looks like a veteran already. Gina handles point very well. My eyes kept going to Armani as well and not just because she was near the front. Some ladies just stand out. 22 Link to comment
perrie97 September 22, 2021 Share September 22, 2021 I wish more girls would post their solos they are my favourite part of the audition process! I’m in Australia so hard to find full episodes until the season is complete it’s good to get a glimpse through Instagram. My unsolicited thoughts on solos (as a person with limited knowledge on dance) lol -loved Dani’s, the musicality (I think that’s the word? when the moves/overall vibe match the music really nicely), the spunk & sass, her effortless technique. She looks totally at home doing a solo to me. -Jalyn’s is my other fave, really fun to watch nice mix of technique and power. She’s such a good performer I loved the high energy and thought the costume added to the vibrancy. I haven’t seen much of Jalyn since her rookie year so was great to see her come out strong. -I liked that Ellie’s was hip hop, something different. I can see what others mean about it being a bit clunky, but it was fun watching a different genre. -Jessica’s was fun with some cool tricks but I can’t help but think her limbs sometimes seem a little unco? -I agree with others about Taylor’s not being strong, I feel she is another Savannah- average dancer but great teammate and ambassador. -Kelsey is so beautiful and talented. Love how versatile she is. I’d love to hear others thoughts who have dance experience? 13 Link to comment

Right before the hair straightener and chunky highlights emerged 😄 I forgot to add: thank you for the clip, loved watching the blast from the past And brown lipstick 😄 To be honest I'm surprised they stuck around until the 2000s also! And then in the mid-2000s they changed the buckle and started cutting the shorts super low. I blame the Frankie B jeans that girls were wearing back then. Lort.

I think that alone will get her up in the triangle eventually. - I love Dani and I'm sorry to the Dani lovers, but there are plenty of girls that have more power, showmanship, and pop than her. Doesn't mean I don't think she's still in the running for point (because of Rachel W, chosen for being beautiful, sorry lol). Lea and Kelee dancing next to her did her no favors, even though she's very obviously gorgeous. - Mackenzie is adorable and I actually love her shape.

Count me among the fans of this performance. They look so strong! Clean, great energy (yes, except for Kristin, my goodness, girl), nice views of a number of the ladies dancing, with a steady camera to boot. Wow to the rookies, and go Gina! Everyone looks great, except those called out. Kristin looks like she's marking it and dialing it all in, Madeline looks a bit awkward. Erin looks the same to me. I'm happy for her being appointed 2GL, but I'll be fine for her to retire after this year. I'm interested to see what goes on with Madeline in next week's episode. She looked so awkward in the preview, and she just looked a little off here too. Did she get injections or something? I feel like her face looks just a scootch different and more frozen, but I can't put my finger on it. It's not her lighter hair, I don't think. I've liked Madeline well enough over the years, but this video and the preview for episode two remind me of her first year in TC when she seemed so young and awkward and vanilla. McKenzie, wow, what a bombshell performer and figure! And Lea has totally won me over with her energy and her moves. She radiates something awesome when she dances!

Love how versatile she is. I’d love to hear others thoughts who have dance experience? I second your post and your eye seems pretty good to me! You see the technique in the performances as well as the musicality and that je ne sais quoi of a performer who can make you really feel it. You also see some of the clunkiness, which means your eye isn't undiscerning. And you love Kelcey, so you clearly have good taste! 😂 The most important thing is how much you enjoy watching someone or not, whatever your level of "training" as dancer or armchair judge. Yes to what everyone is saying about Ellie's solo this year, and I agree it pales in comparison to the energy and execution of last year's video. But I'm still a big fan of hers--her dancing energy is fierce, she is so fun to watch perform, and she is gorgeous. I see her as triangle contender material and would love to see her as a GL down the line. As for Taylor, I think the Savannah comparison is a very good one. They are both fairly boring yet clean dancers with well pointed feet who blend, and their strengths are in their ambassadorship. But for me, they blend in that more positive way. Neither stands out to me like Kristin consistently does, for example, for low energy or weaker body lines. 7 Link to comment

I like Kelcey but I feel like the choreographer should have some blame as well since Taylor doesn't seem this bad in group dances. 1 7 Link to comment

Getting ready to run & hide...not feeling her. She looked behind when she came onto to field (too much space between her & the one in front of her), her arms looked about 1/2 count behind, and she didn't have the "pop" the others seemed to. I think Erin & Madeline M looked much better. 5 Link to comment

I think Erin & Madeline M looked much better. In this snap alone you can see how much more pop she has than (sorry again ladies) Dani. She also had space in between her and the girl in front of her because she was waiting for the girl in the other line to hurry and get in front of her. But I mean... opinions areee opinions lol. I am on a mission to have ppl put some respect on Lea's name!!! 🤣 (kidding kidding not everyone is gonna like her duh lol) IMO she'll get moved up a lot in the next year and the year after that. The girl toured around America as a choreographer/dancer lol she's another Bridget, Amber, Gina. Edited September 22, 2021 by DCC93 2 10 Link to comment

No glimpse of her solo but she was there. I really like Lisa's look here. She has a similar photo on her Instagram. She usually wears red, but I find this dark green with her bronzey tone and hair tendrils to be different and refreshing for her. I know she can be polarizing, but I would be interested in seeing her solo and what direction she went with it. Also, I really want to root for Jessica. I had a soft spot for Alora Rose and is Jessica my new underdog? But everything I see she still underwhelms. My theory is that there is a certain quota of DCC that need to have long limbs for those pretty kicks on the field. I am sure Jessica checks those marks. She is long and lean and beautiful, probably one of the tallest on the team. Amanda looks sizzling here. So does Ashlee who seems tinier every time I see her. Is she even 5 feet tall? Armani's costume was kinda odd to me, but we didn't see enough of it to know her whole look. The MTT editing does not give enough to the fans. I would have sat and watched all 52 solos from start to finish and loved it. 8 Link to comment

If she lifted it up, her dancing/confidence would look completely different. - Idc how Lea looks in photos, she is precious. Her dancing is great, and she looks great out there as well. - Claire is for sure going to be point in 2 years. - Kelee. I love u ur so cute. Thanks for sharing this! I agree with all you said although I really couldn't see Lea that well. 1 Link to comment

SMP637 September 23, 2021 Share September 23, 2021 LOVE LOVE LOVE Kelee and Lea. I wasn't a big fan of Mackenzie last season.... but WOW!!!! She's a standout this year.
