Also this one kally stating she is in group 2 0779B363-E2BA-4DE2-B08E-3A33DCDD8154.thumb.jpeg.e72b47c655d7904b73a4f3bede2de251.jpeg

Jalyn commented on someone's post that she was Kally's leader. So Jalyn is the leader of Group 2 with Kat as her second.

Glanced at Victoria's insta. It seemed to me she's using filters on closeups, and the filters do her (and no one) no favors. 

I don't have an insta, can someone post a couple pictures of her here? I want to know what everyone's talking about!

I read on a FB fan group that rumor is there wasn’t a show group audition this year.  Plan per rumor it was decided to just use the ladies from last years team to be on show group again this year.  

Interesting

Less the four (Gina, Lexie etc) that left plus Dani and Kelee. That is who danced at Oxnard making 16.

She could be taking a social media break 

I mean, totally possible. On her birthday though? It was just weird to me. She might’ve gotten shadowbanned for music copyright or something idk

Jada's hair is natural 😃

I don't have knowledge on black women hair but aren't Darian, Tyras, KDs beautiful hair natural? Or is it not calledhair natural because they put hard work for it to be pretty?

I think on the website it gots Group leaders 1-4 then Second leaders 1-4, then it’s by seniority, alphabetically. 
 

Group 1: Caroline, 2nd Chandi

Group 2: Jalyn, 2nd Kat

Group 3: Kelcey, 2nd Claire

Group 4: Ashlee, 2nd McKenzie

I thought group leaders were done by seniority except for Group leader 1? Like last years it was Lexie, Gina, Rachel W, and Caroline. So wouldn’t Ashlee be before Kelcey?

Ashlee’s group was reported by several of us as group 3 so I wonder if they ended up making a switch

Not your bad.  It's an excellent observation and yes, the team is long overdue for a POC point.

Well, we would have had Jenna in 2017 if she hadn’t screwed up…. Thought I should bring this up as we could have had another amazing poc as point but sadly, it wasn’t meant to be….

Just a thought that came to my mind is that Ashlee may have asked to be Group 4 leader. It's the only group number that she hasn't been in before. I have no idea if this has any truth to it or not, but again just a thought.

Have you seen her close up?  She looks really aged. 

Not a fan of this year's CU gummy smile cameo.

No I haven't seen her up close.  I've got to give her props though.... the year she took off, she worked hard and it shows.

I'd say she looks more tired than haggard.  She's one of those women who looks better without makeup.

You're definitely entitled to your opinion.  I stand by mine though.  Whatever she's doing is aging her and I hope the long term effects aren't causing issues for her health.  I don't wish that on anyone.

Re. the discussion on types of contracts and “firing” vets: The entertainment industry usually hires their artists (like dancers and musicians) as contract workers. This is a contract for a specified and limited period only. It can be terminated if necessary but when it ends, it’s either renewed or not, in which case someone is simply not hired back.

Based on the work the cheerleaders do and subtle comments on the show over the years, I’m 100% certain they’re offered a contract from the start of training camp until May the next year. If they’re cut or get injured, for whatever reason, the contract is simply terminated. If they make it, they serve the contract till its end date.

As soon as the auditions start, they’re technically all without a job as their contract has ended. From a legal point of view, a vet who is cut at finals is thus not fired but simply not hired back. When they’re selected for training camp, they’ll get a new contract. That’s how it works in this business….

GL Kelcey looks so different to me, is this just hair/makeup or has she had work done? 

Here's a pic from her rookie year:

20220818_231624.thumb.jpg.3bbb8efe78375ffe85a9494f4d53e951.jpg

Compared to a pic from 2022 Oxnard:

20220818_231545.thumb.jpg.ada7a4b6f0bd06241918407b9d52dfeb.jpg

She's really pretty in both pics and I really don't have any moral qualms about plastic surgery. I just think she looks different and I can't figure out why! 

(Also, pics are from Caroline's and Kat's instagrams bc I don't think people edit how other people look when they post lol)

Her hair longer and is now a really black color compared to how it used to be a more browner black.

(I don't think this answers your question but this is the only thing I've noticed.)

Lol yeah I did notice the longer black hair

To me her face looks longer/narrower now compared to her rookie year and her bottom waterline/lash line seems like it's angled upward now. But those also don't seem like real plastic surgery procedures, which makes me wonder if it's just different hair and makeup?? 

Idk though if I'm the only one who sees it, it's probably not as drastic of a change as I'm thinking

Victoria looks terrible. Her face is sunken and showing lines around her mouth that weren’t there before.

A good example is Daphne who looks 10 years younger now she’s left the squad and gained weight.

Same. Her weight looks the same to me, I think the longer hair is making her face look longer. Also her part is a little more centered in the more recent picture, that also makes people look slightly different.

Most people who say natural hair as it pertains to black women are talking about what is known as kinky hair - course, curly hair that is unique to black people.  I'm glad it's "acceptable" to TPTB now.  I wear wigs myself, but no one should be forced ro cover their beautiful natural locs.

I liked the original pic, but closer up her body is scary skinny.  The DCC are allowing a few more voluptuous women now - Claire and Kelee for example.  So maybe V should focus on healthy eating and exercise instead of overdoing it.

New team cameos and bios. are up on Cowboys Website

Anyways I updated the rookies to my name database and here are the changes.

AMANDA went from 2 to 3 girls (Amanda Byrd (1986), Amanda Dilks (2019, 2020), Amanda Howard (2022)
KALI went from 1 to 2 girls (Kali Nicole Drake (2012), Kali Rochford (2022)

KAYLA is new to the list (Kayla Hayes (2022)
KYLIE is new to the list (Kylie Dickson (2022)
MARISSA went from 1 to 2 girls (Marissa Garrison (2020, 2021, 2022), Marissa Phillips (2022)
SOPHY is new to the list (Sophy Lulaufer (2022) Surprisingly there is no other variation of the name "Sophy" (no Sophie, Sofie, Sofia, Sophia, nothing) I could have sworn there was one, unless I am wrong.
ZHENYA is new to the list (Zhenya Kolpakova (2022) Zhenya is now the last name on the list (surpassing Yuko) and the only name that starts with the letter Z. 

Let me know if I got something wrong :)

This link shows some of the girls I was hoping would make this year’s team or at least tcc. (Though I don’t think this necessarily shows their best, I’ve seen them all in other clips and generally enjoy their dancing.) I don’t know if Natalie Hillman tried out though his year, but I have followed her for some time and vaguely remember her trying out before.  Melanie Montalvo is super cute, pretty sure she did try out, and of course there is my favorite Bre, and Ariana

I think KALLY’s last name is Bethea, based on her LinkedIn profile

Naturally - she will always try to pose next to the person who is the focus of the pic.  Of course, if it's a birthday photo, she is usually dead center with the birthday girl off to the side out of focus not looking at the camera
