The "Maddie is a bad influence" thing started as a joke comment someone made when what I refer to as Hollygate began that now seems to have taken on a life of its own.

Yeah, I said it, that it would be a kick in the ass if Madeline were the bad influence, I never said (or thought) that she was one :)

Did I miss something? Maddie didn't post on hollys picture. Also, if you don't think holly got cut who is the other vet that got cut? 

nope she responded along with Kelli and Danielle and a few others but I don't follow a lot of the DCCs and there was so much response to her post that I didn't scroll thru them all. Not sure who else is on the team. Like I said I don't follow a lot of them

great to see holly posting again. great support by Maddie, Kellie and the rest of her teammates on the post and good chance she is still on the team

Did I miss something? Maddie didn't post on hollys picture. Also, if you don't think holly got cut who is the other vet that got cut? 

Nope, you didn't miss a thing.  Neither Madeline nor Kelli, nor the rest of her teammates commented, only ex-teammate Erica.  The only other names I recognized in the comments were Amy Simone and Hunter Blackwell. ETA I don't see anything from Danielle either.

Both Danielle and Jenna liked it.

 

IDK if Jenna is really on such thin ice and Holly is really such damaged goods, would she do that?

[LaurenBrook]

Holly did choreograph Jenna's routine. Sorry, I forget who asked about that. 

[WichitaStateShock]

Danielle and Maddie liked but did not comment. Erica was the only dcc to comment. If you see otherwise could you post it on here because I can't see it and I'm curious as to what they said.

Can you show a screen shot of their comments?  Comments/no comments, it doesn't really matter, since Holly's still on the team they can tell her in person.

Okay. Thanks for the clarification. Wow! I'm surprised Holly wasn't originally at least an AGL.

For some reason, I think she is a great dancer but perhaps was young and didn't have the maturity or leadership skills for being AGL.  Not sure I would be a great leader at that age.  I believe we don't all need to be shepherds because then where would we get sheep to lead?  I am a natural follower and I am well seasoned in my years and career.

I think she means in Training camp. Another vet besides Holly to make 36. 

Allie, Heather H and Raylee were cut at finals.  Holly is a question mark.  Erica is out for injury.  Who else?

That's it. They were asking him who he thought would be out besides Holly since he doesn't believe she's cut. 36 on the team confirmed, 13 rookies confirmed. That means 23 vets when only 25 went into camp.

Holly isn't a question mark. She's off the team, unless they are using this situation to cover another sudden vet departure to keep the suspense going. I highly doubt they would go to such lenght for no good reason.

If you get get access to this site,  perhaps itunes?

Melissa's outfit..... um just wow 

Erm the thing is this site isn't only "accessable" to those in USA only you know. As for iTunes, sorry I have iTunes too myself but my iTunes DO NOT HAVE IT. Why? Because the content of the things uploaded onto it is different to every country. For example I live in the UK but UK Itunes for sure DO NOT have DCC on it. We do have a channel called ITVBe that does only show series 5-7 of DCC around every May (I know because I remember watching it every May) and the UK DOES NOT and have NEVER shown season 9 of DCC MTT EVER, and I don't believe they ever will, considering its always season 5-7 on repeat over here and I have looked on UK iTunes for DCC and never found it. The same thing for Amazon. UK amazon don't have the show either.

 

Another example is Netflix (for example) is that is a company known world wide, but what is on Netflix in one country may not be on Netflix in another country like some films are "banned" from certain countries and would never be on Neflix/Amazon in that country but maybe on Netflix in another country eg Friends (the tv show) is on US and Canada Netflix (I know because I have friends in the US and Canada who says its on there but Friends isn't on UK Netflix). 

 

Back on topic, I know I asked this question before, IF Holly was really asked to leave/quit what is going to happen to her spot on show group? Because thats one spot that is definately "open" isn't? Or is K + J not going to replace her spot? I think K said that Erica was the other person who is meant to be in showgroup but is on injured reserve so she was def not in SG I know.

I wondered if I imagine it, but yep, I see quite a substantial roll on her side when she kicks...and if you could pause at the very beginning you could see her lower stomach pooching over the waistband of her shorts.

[KatebytheSea]

DCC is full of talent, so I don't think filling SG spots for those who are injured/left will be a problem. The show must go on.

Yes, even the leanest person would have a bit of a roll/fold during a high kick, but hers is an actual ripple.

For Twitter/FB/Insta, just find the option "copy link" and then paste it here. Super simple.

agree this is a good sign for Holly is still being on the team

I'm not positive if it is a good sign or not... I think it's completely possible that they could post this for her even if she's gone so we're still in suspense until the team is formally announced...

I'm so with you on this. It happens every year but this year I was really mad. I wasn't even a fan of Heather, but she was definitely better than for example Jessika (who we all said was going to get cut after they posted her solo), Kelli made a special mention of her last episode so she was obviously good throughout her first year... That was totally unfair and uncalled for. I get that they are not trying to be objective and girls like Tasha and Kalyssa would never be cut because of their looks alone... Don't show it then! Even with Yuko, the only reason I disliked her so much was that they chose to show us all the negatives and she still made the team, when they cut absolutely wonderful dancers for no reason.

And as for Brianna, I can see the appeal and I think she can pull a Maddie as somebody else has said. BUT it was obvious she wouldn't make the team this year. Bad kicks, not enough power, very timid and no personality. What did they think they could do in 2 months?

She is defintely off the team, unless Shelly lied and there are more than 36 on the team. I actually find it interesting that the only person who commented is the one vet who also left the team. Plus, no public support from Maddie either.

Erm I don't have a problem with Maddie, but what do you mean there was no public support from Maddie? Was she close to Holly? Just wondering as I am sure I just forgot something (I think I am getting old and memories getting worse by the second!!!)

I don't know if anyone was ever released because of it. I do know that Joanna Liad found out she was pregnant during auditions in Season Six (I may have the number wrong) and pulled herself out. I don't know at what point she did that.

They were close but over the past year or so haven't been photographed or interacted as much so people assume they parted ways?

I mean that they were super close and suddenly there's nothing online about them. And I would guess that her bff would be the first to post a comment, something like Erica's.

Thanks guys. I remember that they were close now that you guys mentioned it. Tho I (personally) would take it as a pinch of salt that Maddie didn't comment on social media tho (thats me). Only because I know if I (and this is an example) posted something on there, that was important, I tend to have my friends responding but they tend to text or call to make sure I was ok etc because sometimes (and usually) is and ends up being better as sometimes it is better to respond privately for support. Sometimes the context of the things (eg if in Holly's situation, if the rumors are true and I refused to believe it till we got "some sort of" - and I know it prob won't be the real - reason etc. Just look at what happened to Mandy and the "reason" behind why she left, I am just glad she had something to fall back on, like moving back to Cali for her dance studio etc because I do love Mandy. ) could end up with the wrong thing said and when in the media everything is 100x maginfied and scrutinised more than it should be, even if it is meant to be a positive.

 

For example I could have had a problematic day and said on social media "had a bad day but its nice to know who my real friends and who are not my real friends" and some may comment back on social and to those not in the know, it may seem like real friends are not "real friends" if they haven't commented back, but those real friends may have went down the private route of texting, calling, seeing you in person which to the outside may not see.

 

That sounded so wrong when reading it back but hope it make some sort of sense.

A thousand apologies if this has already been answered but what was the "reason" Mandy didn't try out again?  And why didn't Megan come back?  

[Java]

Megan retired. No reason that I've heard. 

Mandy was called out for her weight in front of CMT, didn't appreciate that, and decided to retire instead of reaudition.

[kalibean]

Megan took a coach position at her University too, didn't she?  Let's see...long term career opportunity doing what I love vs. fighting my weight all year in the spotlight.  Probably wasn't a hard choice for her!  For Amy T and Melissa, for that matter.

I wasn't surprised.  Her lack of mature choices aside, Holly seems to have success in building a choreography business.  She might not have wanted to make that extra time and leadership committment, even if she were to be asked.  I feel the same way about Cersten and some of the other standout dancers.  Holly would probably be fine at picking routines and coordinating team rehearsals, but she simply might not desire it.  And I think that's totally okay!

I have a feeling those heartbroken on instagram, would get over it as this year's team goes on thro this season. Yes it would be hard to not see Holly on the team this year but the team would go on, she is young she is an amazing dancer. I do wonder what she would do next. I have a secret woman crush that she would have this year off and then come back next year and be like "BOOM IN YOUR FACE OLD ME" to all the problems in the last few months and show and proof that she matured and grew up. But I have a feeling that in reality that won't happen and she would prob move on to something else. I remember (I think it was) her rookier season where she said she made it into the top 20 of So You Think You Can Dance. I (also) secretly wish she try out for that again too  and see how far she gets now that shes a little older and gotten a bit more dance "experience" as a DCC etc. 

 

Glad her family is showing full support on social media (too, I say "too" because I'd assume they are fully supporting her behind the scenes etc).

 

I honestly hope this new post from Holly mean she maybe active on social media again (somewhere), so we can see what she does next. Mind you I noticed she has 2 twitter account, 1 is private, has anyone followed her on that private one? Just wondered thats all to see if she posted anything on there. thats all. I don't want to post the twitter handle to her private twitter, but if you look her full name up on twitter you prob see it there.
