Thanks for your kind words. The cut was surprising, to say the least. I’m not going to battle screen names with no personal connections to DCC on a message board. Dayton is a beautiful girl and talent

Tara showed so much class and grace when she said she was not going to say goodbye because she was planning on going to the games to watch her former team mates. Now THAT is someone you want on your t

Looks to me just like the locker room pictures we see every year. She’s standing in her locker, her family jumps in a picture with her. I see nothing scandalous about it. Every year girls post picture

So I will say I really like Savannah and don’t think she was half as bad as one thought, including K&J.

That being said, if Tara was cut, have some damn loyalty Savannah and pack up your poms and GTFO too. You only made the team on Tara’s coat tails in the first place — Kelli said as much.

I think CMT was hoping for another Danielle and Jasmine storyline with Tara and Savannah. Jasmine barely made the team in Season 7, and Danielle came very close to being cut in Season 8. I admit I do not get the Savannah love. I think her looks and red hair as save her, and the fact she got ROTY last season saved her. Tara is okay to me, but they both seem like blenders to me. Would they have made the team in the first place without CMT and show. I would say probably not.

On the one hand, I could see Tara keeping things as quiet as possible, maybe only telling Kelli, if something came up (either good or bad) so that she doesn't have to deal with it at practice as well as in her life.  On the other hand, why would she keep such news from her best friend when they've been through so much together?  That is, unless the friendship has run its course (maybe they didn't need to rely on the friendship as much after they got over the newness of everything, they developed different interests, life got in the way, etc.) and they just don't hang around with each other nearly as much as they used to.

I'm really curious as to why Tara waited until the last moment to peace out.  I don't think Kelli would have waited until last night to cut her if she had any issues with Tara.  That is, unless Tara wasn't doing anything to resolve them.

Part of me hopes Tara is pulling a page and we see her in the wives and girlfriends section at the opener:)

I have no reason to believe this — I just will always love Paige and how that worked out for her in spite of the DCC’s constant warnings it would be the worst thing of all time.

Lol! 

If she quit for another opportunity, yeah, it sucks that she waited, but that's normal.... Most people make sure they secure a new job before leaving the old one, and it's still pre-season. They still have to cut more girls, so I don't really see a good argument to suggest that she took someone else's spot. 

I'm definitely curious though. She was at IHOP last night (I think!), so I imagine that either she quit, or she got cut due to a major rule violation. I'm think the former is more likely.

After seeing the way Charlotte shut down the other judge who brought up Victoria's weight, I'm almost ready to buy the whole "she was promised a spot on the team from the beginning" rumor.

Ugh I've been holding off on buying into that because I really want to give her a chance...but that was so obvious

Maybe she took a page from what Dayton did. Yes Dayton was cut from TC, but in my opinion she got a much better job and opportunity than being a DCC would offered. If Tara did the same thing, I say good for her.

Tara's twitter was pulled before practice started, so that would lead me to believe she either quit or had some extreme rule breaking going on. Otherwise she would have been cut at the end of practice tonight. 

Which they are still at practice right now I just saw a clip they were practicing the entrance

Same here. I was one who never had any issue at all with Cassie(yes her mom being the choreographer helped get her on the team, but in the end I think she proved herself), and I was willing to give VK the benefit of the doubt, but that was just too blatant. Even Judy admitted when Cassie wasn't her best.

When they first showed that critique I was pleasantly surprised, I thought they weren't going to sugar coat VK...and then Charlotte opened her mouth. come on people, try to be a little subtle about The favoritism!

The judge who spoke his mind about VK is my new favorite judge. He said that she looked soft and sloppy, and then we saw the contradiction of what Kelli and Charlotte said. Makes me sick ? 

Yup, definitely noticed this. ?

 

also, anyone notice how they barely even showed any of VK dancing tonight?? And also no kicks (that I saw)??? Weird... considering how much they loved featuring her dancing last episode. And especially if she’s “so amazing”. 

With Kelli and Charlotte being exec producers to MTT (to my knowledge they are).... I wonder if they had a say in that, to maybe hide some things the other judges OBVIOUSLY saw ????

OMG...Charlotte was pretty snarky to the judge who wasn’t impressed with VK! Shouldn’t you LISTEN to the sponsors?!

Pretty sure Tina’s husband/Victoria’s dad is pretty high up in The Dallas operations of the restaurant group that has at least one of the restaurants in The Star.

So I am sure Charlotte is listening to a sponsor — I would not be shocked if there is wheeling and dealing going on there at all. Got to keep the rent paying tenants happy!

They cudnt show her dancing cuz then Charlotte and Kelli’s comments wud have been even more idiotic than they were. Also I’m still watching cuz I delayed it and I’ve seen VK over and over, in the car, flipping her crazy hair, dancing with Phil. Yucky

I just looked at who the @DCCHeerleaders page was following and, while they're following all the other girls (plus Jinelle), Tara's completely gone from their "Following" page.  If it was just a glitch, wouldn't it be fixed by now?  I only counted 20 girls there and Jinelle.  Tara seemed absolutely normal in that Ihop video in the Instastory.  Maybe they took her out as a "We'll miss you" type thing?  No one seemed upset, just tired.  If they were going to cut a vet, my personal choice would have been Christina, but my personal bias about her is well known. 

I wonder why Tara was cut (or why she left).  I don't see her as the type to do something outrageously stupid a la Holly/Jenna/Erica and unless she just SERIOUSLY underwhelmed this Training Camp (which I doubt), got seriously hurt (which we would have heard about), or had a major life change (which we also would have heard about unless it JUST happened within the past few days to a week or so), then I don't see any good reason for her to be cut.

Several people have said that veterans weren't going to be cut in Training Camp except under extreme circumstances and Tara was NOT one of those ANYONE would have considered as being in ANY sort of risk for being axed.

Well you know they will edit it that way anyway, make her look like she is struggling. This girl got 15! I believe last year at finals. This is a bad look for Kelli.  Vets being cut this late? Come on. Time for this show to end, or they will get NO one showing up anymore.

I'm still watching the episode so I wanna wait to look here but it's hard! Lol I'm like going back and forth. But I did wanna say with the Tara and Savannah thing; they didn't seem that close to me honestly. I always thought that watching last year, they weren't as close as Jasmine and Danielle seemed to be. Even though they were on the same team for a few years, when they talked about living together they just made it sound like they did it because they already knew each other and were both trying out, not because they were BFFs. You know what I mean? Ha

All these comparisons to Kaitlin LeGrande...yikes! Girl was an excellent dancer, clearly, since she made Show group rookie year, but such a mess her second! 

I mean, the lies, lateness, drug arrest later, etc. Tara being cut late in the season is not the same. At least I hope!! She’s always seemed so down to earth and lovely. Hoping it’s a personal life thing and not an actual cut for cause.

I wish I had caught his name, all I saw was "Dallas Meteorologist" under his name. I need to rewatch that part and get his name. 

Scott Blodgett? No Scott Padgett, rewatched it and still cringing at how C&K made fools of themselves to those of us who follow more than just the show.

And please stop with filming VK ‘hoping’ she hears her name called.

I thought I heard somewhere (maybe the podcast?) that Tara and Savannah were not close friends before DCC. They both decided to try out for DCC but didn't talk about it to each other while on the Jets and then decided to move down together when they knew. Tara was on the team a few years before Savannah, no? Didn't think they were so close since Tara had a longer time on the team than Savannah who I thought only cheered one year with the Jets before moving on

Kelli made sure she told Colby that and not in the nicest way either.

Kelli was so obvious with her Colby hate. I didn’t really like her either—slow learner, weird facials and the ‘my moment’ nonsense. But it seemed like Kelli couldn’t stand her at all. She probably would’ve cut her the first chance she had but because of the fan vote, she probably felt she needed to show that they did give her time—even if it was fake time.

A bunch of the vet DCC (savannah, Lexie, Christina, heather, Lauren, lacey, & Kelli, from just a quick search) have the same exact photo up on their IG story with a similar caption of “sisterhood is...” with a time stamp of 3:14 am. Can’t be a coincidence. 

It’s just a reference to their dinner after practice.

In the episode tonight, they showed VK doing that gross wink again. I also agree about the judge calling out VK, and the others showing obvious favoritism. What about VK's act over her possibly not being called for finals. Really!!! I do think when they show clips of finals for next week, VK is one of the dancers who falls out of her turn and doesn't look that great. It clearly didn't keep her from TC. Dying to find out about Dayton though.

As for Tara. She has a darling figure. She has never shown signs of weight issues. Her dancing is great as well. I think something had to have happened with her family etc. 

I'm not seeing the post on her instagram that you all are referring to.

Scott Padgett, Dallas meteorologist, I hope you enjoyed your time as a judge. Charlotte will now have you escorted from the Star premises and banned for life.    You tried to throw yourself in front of the unstoppable train that is VK being anointed not just a DCC but the bestest DCC ever, about to create her own legacy where her chubby permed mom left off in the 80s. 

Seriously though- poor Scott did not get the memo!   It reminded me of the movie Mulholland Drive, where the mobster guy is telling the Justin Theroux character that he must hire a certain girl who has auditioned for his movie-- "This is THE girl."

Tara did not leave the team for a better opportunity or for a romance. Her Twitter being down for all of these hours is not a glitch. She was cut last night. She was called into the office more than once prior. No confirmation on the reason why but probably weight. It appeared to be a slight weight gain, but Kelli has been known to cut for as little as 8 pounds. I realize this post will be taken with a grain of salt and that is fine, but this is the truth.

Was she the only one cut

How do you know? If she has weight issues, then VK, Sasha and others are obese. Tara is tiny. Plus, 8 pounds is a lot when you are short. Trust me, I'm tiny, and 3 pounds is a lot for me.

I don’t blame you I also feel for her she seemed like a sweet team mate 

Only reason people started speculating was bc someone posted cut been made look at the twitter accounts

I don’t know for sure that the issue was weight. Like I said, no confirmation on the reasoning for her cut. I follow all of the girls closely though and did notice a weight gain in her, mostly visible in her face. I had her pegged as a possible finals cut because of it, but when she made it into TC I thought she was home free. How I know that she was cut is private. I am simply sharing what has been shared with me since there has been a lot of back and forth on the subject of Tara today. Whether or not you choose to believe me is your prerogative. I am sure it will be addressed on MTT so time will tell.

Nobody is saying anything about what you said other than it is shocking. Nothing to do with you at all. We appreciate what everyone has to say on here. Just crazy how they can cut one person for weight, yet let others stay. Same for cutting people for other reasons. No consistency. I also want to know why in the previews, they show Selina sitting in the seats waiting to hear about TC. I thought she was cut last year???
