hannahbanana December 26, 2017 Share December 26, 2017 36 minutes ago, Jess14 said: I’m curious about Lacey not showing interest in point. Given the way they flipped out at Jenna for asking Shelly if she would get point back (the type of question that wouldn’t raise an eyebrow at my job), it seems like it would be frowned upon if someone did outwardly show interest in being point. Do they just ask the senior vets if they want to be point? Total,supposition on my part, but I would think they flipped at Jenna because of the circumstances under which she asked about point, not because she asked about point. Given what we saw on tv, she asked it too soon, asked the wrong person, and did it while K & J were out of town. Just looking at it in general from the outside in, no big deal. But being in the middle of the situation, caught up in the emotions, they probably felt like it was a slap in the face -- similar to a parent punishing a teenager --you are grounded and supposed to be thinking about what you did wrong & repenting, not thinking about yourself and waiting until we ("mom") leave town to go behind our backs to ask Shelly ("dad"). 4 Link to comment

That likely was the case. If anything though, I don't think its about looking at it generally from the outside, but it goes back to the other point that the DCCs are not a real, professional environment. Take Jenna out of it because I feel she's a lightening rod on this board and substitute anyone. The fact that their actions are analogous to a parent-child relationship is itself problematic. That's not their role. Beyond that, an employee really should not have to ask about their status. That should be made clear when a suspension is handed down (outside of situations where a suspension is due to a pending investigation, and then it should made clear as soon as possible afterwards). Ambiguous, open-ended, "you're punished until we say you're not" or "you're punished until you show sufficient remorse" situations may work for parents or may even work in college/high school coach-player relationships, but it doesn't make for a good situation in a workplace. Kelli is lucky that so many people covet being a DCC and that a high level of turnover is natural. If she ever has to transition into a managerial role where she has permanent employees without the "yes mam" culture, she is going to need to make some major changes in the way she operates. ETA: I should make it clear that I don't think they want to be like a real work place. I think they are perfectly fine and happy to kind of be in that gray area where they do what they want and don't really have to worry about real HR issues. And ultimately, the girls know the deal after they've been there for a year. It's not a job that pays the bills, so people are always free to leave with few reservations.

THIS. Plus Jenna acted like point was hers and she was just waiting on when it was going to be given back - like when you're in high school and grounded from driving for a month but know your parents aren't going to sell that car they spent $$$$ on. Except JEnna is a grown ass woman in her 20s. 9 hours ago, scorpio1031 said: That’s just what I was about to ask - has anyone heard who is planning on retiring? Just the obvious. Jinelle, Jenna. Good chance with Simone and Khalyn (cue the sobbing) bc of injury. Speculation on Stephanie and Tasha bc both are a little older and fought weight gain, but I've heard Tasha wants one more year so she can be an All Star, although they've taken one or two 2 years as All Stars. As for fighting weight, JESSICA and Rachel, shewwwww. Selina says shes reauditioning. One of the NY girls, can't remember which, possibly. Possibly Amy L w/getting married and running a business. Kashara and Lacey are the two who make me go HMMMMMM. If Kashara goes to All Stars, I predict Lacey stays, but Lacey says she's 50/50. If Kash stays hard to tell about Lacey. Cersten is not going anywhere. Keyra confirmed on that podcast she was reauditioning. I wonder about Christina. So many were cut or quit I doubt many retire and doubt many are cut unless audition turnout is horrific next year. 1 hour ago, mmm said: I don't see it her both Lexie and Alexis miss a move here but she does alright.

UnicornKicks December 26, 2017 Share December 26, 2017 One more about Lacey not 'wanting' point. She never made a sign and stood up and said "I Do Not Want Point" and she didn't hide in the closet and cry when they were testing girls for point. From what we can all see, she's a solid talent and gorgeous. I love her look, and think she may have the best hair on the team. Anyway.......from what I heard, EVERYBODY thought it was going to be between Erica (risk factor = chronic injury) or Jenna (risk factor = fraternizing and big scar), and then Holly really pushed for it (Kelly and Charlotte fave and male fan fave, but fights weight and fraternizing). Those three duking it out and the 'tradition' of having a triangle with a blond, brunette, and 'exotic' (redhead, black girl, something not white and blonde/brunette), Lacey just did her thing. She didn't hide or say NO, NEVER, she just didn't jump in the Battle Royale. Watch some of the prep clips from this spring and summer before the cuts. Those three almost knock each other over as to who is in front or at a point, even in small groups. It's entertaining. Then two of those were gone and Jenna pulled back, and they pick KASHARA? Nothing against Kashara myself. She works hard, is cute, entertaining, reliable, has no fear and I think does fine at point. I like that she has some firm curves and is so damn approachable. I think she is like JInelle, and could make friends with a tree stump if you give her five minutes, whereas Lacey is a little more reserved. If nothing else Kashara definitely shook things up at point and showed everybody Kelli and Judy can do what they want, and it all works out fine. Seniority and technical training aren't automatic roads to point. Holly was fake as hell, and Erica had a touch of that Regina George, where you couldn't tell if she was talking down or making fun of you until five minutes after you'd walked away. Jenna is so scripted now, I can't tell if she is just so wrapped up in DCC that she doesn't know how to not sound that way, or if she really buys all the BS. Jenna is going to be an interesting one to watch and see if she flips her lid when all this is gone. If I had to pick one of the three for point, Erica takes the best pics, but Jenna would be the best ambassador. 4 Link to comment

It kind of seemed like before that she had stated that she didn't want to be considered for point (like how some girls ask not be considered for show group). That seemed odd to me that she or anyone would do that. However, I totally get the scenario laid out above. While I think you would see similar complaints as you do for Kashara on the board if Jenna, Erica, or Holly were point if all 3 girls were on the team (you can never please everyone), I don't think you would see the "Lacey for point" arguments at all. I think that is purely a result of Erica/Holly being dismissed and Jenna being removed from the position. Lacey wasn't really on the radar before any of the drama occurred, and I can see how that was the case from her point of view as well. 2 Link to comment

But I also don’t completely see them picking Lacey for point next year. I love her, though. Id love to see Maggie get some form of shine this coming year, but I imagine she’ll be a second leader along with Cersten, Stephanie, and maybe Maddie (or Kelli). I don’t see any one group being stacked like Group 1 was this year. I think all the rookies will reaudition and make it. Any word on how Christina’s year has gone? I’m still not completely sold. I think Selina would make it again if she auditioned next year. Something tells me the amount of girls leaving/potentially leaving for other reasons would incline them to keep a few more veterans than they should. I don’t think she’s a bad dancer by any means, she’s just never stood out to me. I could see Robyn at point as well. I would be happy with all three of them at point, plus Cersten who is really up and front this year. I don't really see them having a Cersten-Robyn-Lacey though. 1 Link to comment
bigskygirl December 27, 2017 Share December 27, 2017 I think Keyra, Christina and Savannah may be on the chopping block at tryouts. Selina may be on the chopping block too. This season Raylee was cut for no rhyme or reason aka Charlotte's what did she do to save her spot on the team, so two and three year girls can be cut just as one year girls can. Link to comment

She’s a ‘firecracker’ as everyone said during TC 2 Link to comment

Selina must be a great ambassador otherwise I don’t see her appeal I have never seen the appeal of Selina.

I think it was Rose and another finalist. 1 Link to comment

That's too bad, she seems really sweet and a nice addition to the team. I hope this doesn't prevent her from returning next year if she wants to. 1 Link to comment

bigskygirl December 27, 2017 Share December 27, 2017 I was wrong. It was Rose and Selina who made the mistakes with the JFK quote. I think the reason why Keyra made the team was the fact Kelli, Miss Kitty, and Charlotte like her. Kelli did make the comment about her thighs during the cameo photo shoot. Finalist Lacey was not brought into TC because the judges thought her thighs looked too big, and to be honest about it, I thought Lacey danced and looked better than Keyra does. Grace Lee Sells and Katie S. were smaller framed and better dancers, but they were cut because they were considered too big or big in the behind in the uniform, but Keyra looked big in the thighs and behind, and she still made the team. I would like to know what she had over Raylee and Heather to make the team over two vets especially when Heather was considered to be a power house her rookie year. Link to comment
woodscommaelle December 27, 2017 Share December 27, 2017 Never understood the appeal of Raylee. Was never a fan and for absolutely no reason. 2 Link to comment
