Of all the things she had to say about the differences, she chose to include that? A complaint about the drive? SMH.

LaurelleJ August 22, 2017 Share August 22, 2017 I thought it was cool of Erica to say that, rather than say something negative about the place itself, like the people can watch me do sexy hips, saying getting there is challenging. It takes forever to get there, but once I'm there oooh aaahhh ooohhh. 3 Link to comment
dreamcatcher August 22, 2017 Share August 22, 2017 1 hour ago, MyFavShows said: She's not weak, just not as good as the two brunettes. If those are who they consider "their top 3", don't you think they'd put the blonde in the front to balance it out? Just like if their top 3 was two blondes and a brunette, I think the brunette would have the advantage. IMO Lacey is a much better dancer than Kashara, and Jenna is a better performer (and I'm not just basing it on this one dance). I think there are definitely reasons other than dance/performance ability that Kashara is point. If it's not her look/hair color, is it that J&K like her better? Am I way off w/ these opinions - like do some of us think Kashara is the best dancer/performer on the DCC? But last year they had two brunettes and one blonde too, and Melissa wasn't point. I think at some point shelly said that they're also considering height and Kashara is a happy medium between Lacey and Jenna. When we first saw this triangle (with jenna at point) many of us said it looked unbalanced so maybe that's why Kashara "won". 1 hour ago, tajalexander said: Although it will never happen, given that (I'll just put it in the atmosphere) Cersten is going to med school and this is her last year, I would love to see her as point one time. I think she's always strong but never in the center. YES! If they're going to rotate, Cersten deserves the position! If she decides to postpone med school for another year, I think she's definitely going to get point next year. And I also think that if they're going to recreate the hip hop routine, she's going to be on Holly's spot. 2 Link to comment

KatebytheSea August 22, 2017 Share August 22, 2017 (edited) 8 hours ago, Jess14 said: Agreed as far as Jenna and Kashara. Jenna was originally at point and took herself out of that position by whatever she did to get in trouble. I'm not sure why Kashara got point over Lacey especially since Lacey is more senior. It may well have been due to hair color, but I don't think it's unreasonable for Kashara to be point over Lacey. Similar to my views on Jenna and Kashara, I think Lacey is a better dancer, but she's not that much better IMO. I would say still put Kashara in the top 5 dancers who remain on the team. With that said, I do think hair color is the reason why Melissa was in the triangle over Erica last year. Melissa is an amazing technical dancer, but I never thought she stood out that much as a DCC over others, though she was certainly good. They've had several girls at point who aren't blonde, so I don't think KaShara's blonde hair was a factor. From several comments here, many thought that Lacey's more lyrical style might be the reason she wasn't given point - I don't have an opinion as I haven't seen Lacey dance solo enough to know. I appreciate your viewpoint on Melissa, though I must disagree. Melissa was called out twice for being one of the most powerful and skilled dancers in DCC history, even being likened to Everett Smith in talent. She earned her triangle spot in spite of being blonde. It wasn't a seniority issue either, as she and Lacey were rookies together. Of course, Kelli and Judy know and see much more than us about the talents and power of the girls. Considering Kelli's dedication to having the best squad possible, I don't believe she'd put anyone at point or in the triangle who wouldn't do it justice.

They did an amazing job and it really complements her face. She's a total glamazon and would also be a great point and spokesperson. She's quite articulate and has a very grounded and calming energy - all attributes Jen K has! Even though I was never a die-hard Jen K fan, I can't deny she was a great unofficial captain. I agree with you about Lacey. Of course she got a nose job! Her nose looks completely different. Having said that I think her new nose looks AMAZING! It gives her face a softer more feminine look. 2 Link to comment

Dallas traffic is crazy. I have to go there for work or for six flags ? It is always under construction which makes it even worse. I drove past my exit 6 times before I realized that the exit was some back alley do to construction. There is no good way to get around.

I didn't think Erica had a crappy attitude in the video, and she very well might have been prompted by the producer who was filming ie "How's the new facility working out? Is The Star far from where you live?" If your employer decided to move your office 30 miles away in a large city (and all routes from Las Colinas/Valley Ranch to The Star require a toll road) you'd probably react a bit too. Especially if you signed a lease/bought a house near your place of employment. That's their main practice facility and traffic to get there from south, east or west SUPER sucks. It's probably not fun for Shelly, Kelli or Judy either. Sure, wouldn't quit your job over it, but it kind of stinks. Valley Ranch was pretty centrally located for any of the girls living in uptown, Addison area, SMU, TCU, etc. Straight shot from UNT as well. Las Colinas and the mid cities are the most reasonable for rent too, so I'm really curious how that worked out this summer. Studios near The Star (at the Shops) were going for $1500/mo last I checked. Cheaper than most big cities, but still. Back in the day a lot of the girls lived in LC, especially during camp, but not sure how that rolls now. Either way to y'all's point...nothing she has to worry about anymore! 4 Link to comment
