PollyHowell April 20, 2018 Share April 20, 2018 (edited) I'm rewatching the latest season in preparation for audition gossip, and I just want to give a shoutout to Tasha. I feel like she gets mixed reviews around here but I love her personality and how she carries herself - extra, but mature. I like how she carried herself throughout auditions last year even though she flunked her interview and I think she's a great addition to the team. I wish her the best this coming season; I hope she's kept in shape both weight-wise and current-events-wise! Edited April 20, 2018 by PollyHowell 11 Link to comment

RazzleberryPie April 20, 2018 Share April 20, 2018 (edited) Kashara may not have perfect fluid technique, but dang she has showmanship. I feel like she’s dancing circles around what little we see of Lacey *gasp* and the choreographer in this. I can’t even see Jenna enough to comment on her. Is it me or doea Lacey look like she’s filled out a little? Not fat or soft by any means, but more like how Cassie filled out her last season.

EricaShadows April 20, 2018 Share April 20, 2018 While I wish it were otherwise, I'm glad Kelsey has spoken up and said "This is it." If I had put as much hard work and effort into getting onto a team as she has, then STAYING on the team, especially after everything that happened her first year, I would have been staying for as long as they'd have me. Still, she's leaving when SHE decides it is time to go and isn't having to anticipate the judges decision that she's good enough this year. 7 Link to comment

She put in two years and now she is moving on to a new life outside the DCC world. She is in a great relationship and recently engaged.

She’s still fit and tiny, but doesn’t look as stringy lean. She looks amazing. 5 Link to comment
Stee April 20, 2018 Share April 20, 2018 I’m not sure what is happening with Kashara and point but I always felt like Lacey was a bit too thin and fluid to be point. But now that she’s filled out a bit, she seems sexier and more powerful. I would love to see her as point and Group 1 Leader. 8 Link to comment
DancingNurse April 21, 2018 Share April 21, 2018 I doubt if they remove Kashara from point. Maybe rotate some, but won't demote/remove her totally. On 4/18/2018 at 12:37 AM, WaterSpirit said: and this RN as well! Me, too! Not a bit sorry to see Cersten go! 4 Link to comment

Kelli Sullivan also has very well-defined abs, but IIRC they don't show hers or Lauren's in their cameo or swimsuit photos.

Stirring the pot a little bit, but I would love to know how she feels about Cersten calling herself a nurse? Lauren is a REAL RN, eaRNed that degree! I got the impression she might be working for the same plastic surgeon Cersten worked for, where Jackie Bob (not a nurse, but had the sense to never claim to be one, such a Class Act) and Colin (RN) worked. I could be wrong. 2 Link to comment

ByTor April 23, 2018 Share April 23, 2018 I thought Lauren said the hospital where she worked had a view of the stadium, and I thought she was ICU/CCU. Unless she left to work at a doctor's office since her schedule wouldn't be as grueling. 1 Link to comment

HowdeeDo April 23, 2018 Share April 23, 2018 Guess it’s confirmed for Bess then. Def wish she had more time to shine. Hope her injury recovery goes well. Jinelle is more assumed to be retiring, insiders heard anything on her? I want to think she is, but Kelly mentioning a “tearful office visit” the other day also has me thinking she’s pulling some reverse psychology on us. I would be most surprised is Maddie left. She had potential for a solid spot in triangle in a year or two. 2 Link to comment

Unless she left to work at a doctor's office since her schedule wouldn't be as grueling. When she started out, she was indeed working as a heart nurse. DCC schedule can't accommodate typical hospital schedules, so pretty sure she'd left the floor and gone to an out patient setting. I was thinking that office where DCCs work but could be wrong. Lauren is about the only one I'm "invested" in LOL and keep up with. I need to find some receipts that she's changed jobs, just not 100% sure where. I'd still like to know what she thinks of "Nurse" *INSERT EYE ROLL* Cersten. 2 Link to comment

DancingNurse April 23, 2018 Share April 23, 2018 By no means am I saying anything bad about Lauren. She has her whole life to work as a nurse, so her taking a "lighter" nursing job for a couple of years while she still has the opportunity to dance at this level is a very smart move. I hope she stays 5 years. I'd do the same in a heartbeat if I had her talent and her ABS. 4 Link to comment
