And who were those kids? - why is Lauren hugging them like they are her close relatives she hasn’t seen for a long time?   If anything I think Lauren went overboard - too much contact for a stranger who doesn’t know the kids ahead of time.   Maybe she knows them well and it’s not like I’m describing, but it seems a little weird to me. 

The little one with pigtails is Cassie's daughter, not sure about the little one with the ponytail. Lauren has taught Lennon at DCC camp and knows her from the stadium/being around.

I hope the makeovers tonight are good.   I can't wait to see how the bozo orange hair gets fixed.  

I left a comment on YouTube and Marshall answered back!! #fangirlmoment

These makeovers need to be given more air time. Definitely.

As @Sarah99 said, Lauren and Lennon are definitely buds from Camp DCC.

Looks to me like a couple of the girls went the other direction just to avoid them.  But I know that probably is not what really happened.  It just looks like that in this clip.

Lennon is Judy's grand-daughter.  So Lauren isn't a stranger to her or vice versa. :)

Yes, she looked like ‘What? We gotta talk to these brats? They’re lucky to b in the same room with me. They get 1 smile, that’s it!’  All Kelli really cares about is that I’m skinny, I don’t gotta b nice?

 

This is funny, but I actually had another thought. Maybe Christina just does not feel like being phony so she just gave a simple smile. Maybe she feels that Cassie and crew are constantly shoved down their throats. IMHO, why are her kids still taking pics with the DCC anyway, I mean Cassie is no longer apart of the squad or the DCC organization like Judy. Honestly, whatever floats the DCC boat but I do think at some point it has to be annoying!

I don't see Christina being rude in that clip?? She is there for the squad photo, not to entertain kids.  It looks to me like she is distracted and focusing on what is going on in the room re: squad photos (as she should be).  When she notices Lennon, she smiled.  Seems totally appropriate to me. If she was participating in a DCC camp, I would expect her to be focused on the kids, but not at squad photos.

[bigskygirl]

I finally figure out who TC Kristin reminds me of. TCC Popcorn Kelly from Season 7? I think she tried out in Season 12, but she was cut at Finals.

Yeah but as a DCC you gotta fake it bc so many of your fans are children!

Quite frankly, I’m not a Christina fan, but come on. Cassie has to stop bringing her offspring to the squad photo and it’s annoying that all these young ladies have to act like they just saw the cutest thing in the world year after year just to appease them-and certainly shouldn’t have to pose for them too. Does any other alumna have the same privileges? Nope. Are they supposed to gush over them? Nope. Is it annoying? Hell yeah and if Christina had the guts to actually show it, then she just gained a fan. I would love to stop talking about Cassie (who sooo hates the attention anyway), but how about Cassie showing us that we are wrong and she isn’t getting preferrential treatment.

And kids are certainly not their core fanbase- even if they are, Lennon isn’t a fan. Lennon is a poor kid who is proped up to be a VK no.2.

To be fair, though, I think Lennon doesn't go as Cassie's daughter, but as Judy's granddaughter.  However, I didn't think Christina did anything wrong either, just looked to me like she was preoccupied, smiled at her, then went back to being preoccupied.

[Hannahjulie]

Dayton was robbed. Since Shelli works at DCC how could Kelli cut Dayton? I don’t get why Kelli cut her. We really did not get to see all TCC’s and I bet all of them made dance mistakes. Traffic in Dallas is horrible and being late happens. If I were Shelli I don’t know how I could continue to work at DCC.

IMO. There's a lot going on doing group pics. A lot of noise and chaos. To me she looks preoccupied. Also, she is deaf in one ear, so splitting ones focus is way different then when you have two working ears. She teaches dance to little kids, so I don't see why she would intentionally diss them.

I agree and OVERSTIMULATING kids in a chaotic setting is a recipe for a meltdown. Dumb parenting and/or grand parenting IMO.

It's a recipe for disaster. Either the kid will rebel or be crushed from disappointment if she doesn't make the team. Let the kid have their own identity, geez.

[DCC.Style.fan]

Is all of this referring to those pics of Lauren and Lennon at a DCC camp?  There is a full video of that event with Lennon and other little girls going through a long day of doing kid type dance stuff.  Its absolutely adorable. Lennon is precious. I AM a Cassie fan and think she is funny and a great mom. Since she has had her pic taken with DCC since she was a baby and then as a DCC herself and her mom a prominent figure in the DCC family who has been bringing her family around the DCC happenings since she started working with them.  They are a valuable family to the Cowboys organization and I love seeing the Loftin kiddos' pics and photos.

Sorry, I take back what I said. I thought they were actually meeting some children. Didn’t realize it was family hangin out at squad photo. I’m still irritated that my girl Tara got cut and I shudnt b taking it out on Christina. My bad.

Eh, I think Dayton got set on a much better track in life away from the DCC. That said, just because you're a legacy doesn't mean you get an auto-invite to the squad. If Dayton automatically made it, then VK would have too---and frankly, the DCC needs to be VKless for another 3-4 years imo.

Harsher than I may have written it but this. I do think Judy plays a part in why Cassie and kids are always around and how it's cute for them to be in the pictures. I don't think it's cute, but Judy seems to be a pretty active and involved grandma so I could see her asking for them to come.

Just to add that it might as well be just Judy’s decision, but I don’t recall Kelli doing the same with her daughter either. Judy has now seen how Cassie was treated so I don’t get why she’s doing the same now with lennon. Maybe having her attend the photoshoot every few years would make more sense. And of course I know nothing about their parenting skills, but our no1 criticism of vk is that she has no concept of life outside of dcc and that was how she was brought up. All legacies will inevitably have a connection with the dcc, but raising your daughter with this one dream in her life is terrible imo. And Cassie was the same- hearing a 22 y.o saying that she doesn’t know what she’s supposed to do because that was her only dream, only to go on to be a SAHM (while still be way too close to dcc and doing the same to her child) is heartbreaking. At least Dayton and Sam are experiencing life away from dcc-and Dayton could always choose to come back if she realizes that she truly wants it.

Judy works for the DCC and brings her granddaughter to work  - what's the big deal?  As long as everyone else there is fine with it.  It's sweet, and hopefully Lennon will remember it when she's older.  And Cassie is a SAHM, just like a lot of other alumni - nothing wrong with it.  She spends a lot of time being close to DCC cause her mom does work there.  She also spends time with her family and her friends.  As long as she's happy, that's what matters.

I’m not judging what she’s doing in her personal life. But how many of us are bringing kids grandkids relatives or friends to work? And having your grandkid in your office is one thing, but bringing her to a photoshoot and making a difficult, long day a bit worse? And who exactly is going to object to that? The 36 terrified girls or Kelli?

As for the SAHM thing, I don’t mind per se. But Cassie never got to experience life outside of dcc, go to college, work or be independent. She’s pretty wraped up-she was one of the most vocal alumnas when Erica’s lawsuit came up. How many of us are that attached to our mom’s job or old job? Yes dcc is a mini cult, but you can’t view this situation objectively and consider it 100% normal. And my biggest issue with legacies is that they don’t even know if that is their dream for real. Which again, even if it is, you can’t tell me that any girl who is only dreaming of being a dcc (like both Cassie and VK) and never branches out has actually explored her potential. To be fair though, VK is going to college so she might surprise me.

Cassie went to UNT, Sam is at Texas A&M, Victoria - I forget where she is going.  Wasn't Dayton in Arizona for college?

I don’t see Lauren being a kiss up at all. She was the DCC camp instructor during the week Lennon attended and from Cassie’s posts, it looked like Lennon got attached to Lauren during her week

So one of the earlyish cuts is TCC Lindsay-- was there ever any inside scoop on why she was cut?  I haven't noticed any critiques of her in the episodes so far...so surprised she is cut before Kristin and Taylor T.  

In the makeover episode I think Kelli was chatting with her about how she's becoming a nurse? The inclusion of that bit made me wonder if she dropped out of TC.

She looks like a rock star from all footage shown so far.  I am very interested to see why she leaves TC - has to be something sudden and final IMO.

Okay, what did I miss?  I read every page of this forum.  Is this from the post a while back about camp?

Anyway, if true, what a shame.  To try for however many years to get on a squad KNOWN for its public outreach and not have it in your heart to smile at little children, tells me that you are only using this opportunity for your own glorifying, to be able to say you were a DCC.  Even if that is true, you still have to be willing and able to smile through those moments you are not feeling.  

But Kelli is better than me because if you show that diva attitude to me, you would not be on the team next year.  If Kellli talked to her multiple times, then she had to know that she needed to kill it in auditions in order to make it back.  

But me, if I have to talk to you about your attitude, I would have just released you from the squad that year or the next.  

At the very least, at the end of the year meeting with the vets, I’d let you know not to bother reauditioning because of your funky attitude.

There’s a post with a link to a video of two little girls running to Lauren.  I totally did not get the vibe from Christina that everyone else did from the video. Her response seemed in keeping with others right around her.

Honestly, be disinterested in having to stick around to take a picture with your boss’ grandkids after a long day is a pretty genuine emotion for many people.

So I’m the poster that recommended watching All or nothing Dallas Cowboys, because it gives such great background and Charlotte is in it. In one scene she talks about merchandise they are selling. Kelli makes a cameo or two.

i know this is off topic but I also  highly recommend the latest version of “all or nothing” about the Manchester United soccer team, of course it’s called football England. It’s one of the best sports documentaries I’ve ever seen in any sport. I was nervous about them winning games even though I already knew the outcome. It’s really good in my opinion. 

They are on Amazon Prime and they really give insight into what it takes to have a team become a champion and all the obstacles in the way.

Just throwing it out there - if she were doing things to the other girls, I don't understand why Kelli would put up with it.  If you've got someone being a pot stirrer (and I've got personal feelings on that thanks to my former job), I would kick them off the squad.  Furthermore, if it took me so many years to become a DCC, I'd be thanking my lucky ummmm…... stars......sorry:)  But I wouldn't be doing anything to mess it up.  Then again, there's been a few negative comments about her here, so who knows.

I don’t read too much into Christina with the kids. She did look preoccupied, & there were 2 other cheerleaders walking away that as far as you could tell didn’t even register the kids (rookies I think, but still). And it’s a really short clip. And there were 20 odd cheerleaders who were not even shown; for all I know they were all scowling at the kids.  Christina at least smiled & didn’t walk away. 

Here's my take....
