McKinezeInFloMnd March 19, 2018 Share March 19, 2018 This is just my humble opinion on Jenna. but she is probably a Top 20 All time DCC and Top 5 DCC in the MTT Era. Bummed she is retiring, wish she would change her mind. 9 Link to comment

All shade intended. Meanwhile, VOTY is your classic popularity contest. I may be proven wrong, but I just don't think Kashara gets that over the other group leaders. In a nutshell, merit PROBABLY has nothing to do with either honor. Edited March 20, 2018 by hypeman 5 Link to comment

Jess14 March 19, 2018 Share March 19, 2018 I could definitely see Kashara getting VOTY, but I wouldn't be surprised to see Jinelle get it. I know Jenn K did not get it last year, but everything that Jenn K got her last year was expected. It made sense for her to be point because she had been in the triangle the prior when no one else returning had been. Likewise, she was already a group leader whereas Jenna, Danielle, and Jessica had all been 2nd group leaders the year before. With Kashara, she really did step up and take on a lot of new responsibilities in ways that were not expected when training camp started. While I agree with the comment upthread that Kashara is Kelli's favorite (and lord knows that I thought that she was shoved down my throat this past year, though my annoyance was not aimed at her personally), if social media is accurate, Kashara is very well-liked by her teammates. I don't think it's strange that she would win a team vote if that is how VOTY is decided. She already won ROTY her first year. 3 Link to comment

Stee March 20, 2018 Share March 20, 2018 I am probably the only one who thinks this but after everything Jenna has been through, including the embarrassment of having to relive it all on tv, I would love if she were given VOTY any her teammates. I have a soft spot for her and think it must have been difficult to end her DCC run the way she did. 11 Link to comment
bigskygirl March 20, 2018 Share March 20, 2018 Jenna brought it all on herself. She knew she could be caught when she broke the rules over and over again. In otherwords, she brought the embarrassment on herself. If she did not want the world to know what she did, she should not have went for her sixth year. As Kelli said, she should consider herself lucky she is still on the team. Link to comment
Stephieg84 March 20, 2018 Share March 20, 2018 Hi everyone - long time lurking but have never chimed in before. Can someone please verify VOTY from 2017? The info I found on their website said it was Jenn K but people here seem to be saying she did not win. Thanks in advance! Link to comment

LaurenBrook March 20, 2018 Share March 20, 2018 I could also see Maggie getting VOTY - she seems universally liked and we know she's retiring. But I could also see Jinelle. She isn't very involved with the girls outside of DCC events but she does seem well-liked by all. 2 Link to comment

She was such a good dancer, always caught my attention and made it all look so effortless and cute. She’s my vote for VOTY. 15 Link to comment

I personally do not understand why any girl would want to try out for the DCC especially with the camera in your face. I mean it is bad enough to have Kelli, Charlotte and Judy watching almost your every move you make during tryouts, TC and being on the squad. I would make a bad DCC because I would be questioning everything and not wanting to act and be a DCC 24/7/365. Link to comment

No one is obligated to confront their transgressions head on AND live through the consequences. YES we should all take our lumps, but most don't. I have no problem giving Jenna an "attagirl" for behaving responsibly. ESPECIALLY when she could have booked it for LA and never looked back. 6 Link to comment
