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

Breelin was like Caila, Cersten, JennK, all Jr. DCCs so they knew them already. They give extra sliding room when knew already how girls pick up choreo, have good work eithic, etc. Sometimes it is hard though to do all this on your own than it is when you're 10 and have parents making you on time, eating right, etc.

Always listen to Kitty. She is one fierce bitch but she is never wrong when she is saying LET ME KNOCK HER DOWN PEG or CUT HER BAD ATTITUDE = Erica, Keyra, Tara, Chelsea, Viv, probably tons more if I thought long enough. Kitty's hair is all the drama the team needs. LISTEN TO KITTY ROAR.

I’ve never heard anything about Tara having a bad attitude.... she seems to be genuinely liked. Didn’t Kitty say she blended or something? I can’t remember. I’ve slept since then.

I think they made a lot of errors this camp that they regret....Just my opinion.  I feel bad for this squad as I just don’t feel it is strong at all and I see a LOT of vets leaving after the way some of it was handled. I don’t see many vets past the three year mark (meaning rookies from last year) staying after this year. 

They already had almost all the third years (future fourth years) quit: Simone Stephanie Chantal etc.

I believe the producers of stuff like the amazing race, survivor have a hand in who ultimately wins. But, in this case, I stand by my statement. I’m not naive, I don’t believe everything I see on TV.. I can even usually pick out the poor edits on this show trying to create stories. I DO NOT believe that Charlotte, as Chief Brand Officer and Sr VP of the multi-billion dollar organization is going to allow any entity outside of the organization define part of that brand. 

So again, I’m not naive, and this is my educated opinion. Not going to continue to defend it. I posted this to give the reasons for my opinion, but I’m done now. 

@ShellyB- any chance that you can weigh in here, just a little, to help with understanding? 

The only things under CMT’s umbrella are the structure of auditions (based on our original set up), rehearsal flow, guest choreographers. They DO NOT have input into who makes it through each round, Training Camp or the team. That falls into Kelli & Judy’s laps. Charlotte gives input when needed. I saw someone post about the amount of time CMT is with us. They have generally come for a night or two prior to auditions. The rest of their time covers all audition weekends, First Meeting, uniform fittings, etiquette/social media training, Cameo Day, Meet the Team and first game. They throw in a special filming every year, i.e. Oxnard, Calendar, skydiving, etc. During training camp, there are generally 5 nights a week of rehearsal...usually 2 or 3 if those are camera nights, depending on the week and topic to be filmed.

I just watched it to check. Kitty said “I don’t think she’s attractive, I think she’s probably sweet” while holding her card that showed 15!

What makes Kitty good, is that she's honest and without pretense. The only time I've heard her comment on someones attitude was Gina. Who you didn't mention at all. The others I don't know about, except Keyra.

Kitty praised Keyra during both of her visits. She said she "killed it" during SG auditions.  In a later visit she said of Keyra, "that girl is so freaking talented."

Therefore, I agree with Kitty. Keyra was fabulous.

Kitty called her a blender 

Dang! I wish I blended as beautifully as Tara does

And I’m not sure who originally posted it, maybe @JohnGalt, but they said that Tara had been called in to address the issue prior to her cut so it doesn’t sound like it came out of nowhere. I’m dying to find out tho cuz she was a fave.

Not a Tara hater but the pics of her at Maggie and Christina's parties looks like she's covering up some weight. Not a lot like 5 pounds the most. She looks healthy but doesn't have that protruding collar bone like the rest of the girls. Her arms look a tad heavier and her cheeks look a little fuller.

I don't think the producers of Amazing Race or Surviver can mess with the outcome. They have to abide by game show rules. Sure they can throw some mixups to change things up but even then it has to be in place before competition begins. I remember there was some outrage about Last Comic Standing that the judges were mad because the person they picked didn't move on. The producers picked. They had to put a disclaimer at the end of each show saying that producers can change the outcome or something like that. With MTT however if Kelli and Charlotte are producers well they pretty much can decide the team and the direction they want the show to go in being they are the end all be all. The judges, the bosses and producers. Judy is probably internally rolling her eyes a lot.

Check response above. Plenty of girls who have been cut in the past have waited a long time or simply never addressed their cuts on social media. I’m sure it’s painful and embarrassing for some. They’re not obligated to share.

If everything you have said is correct then you are my favorite poster.

If the nutritionist is considered a doctor, the Dallas Cowboys, the Cheerleader's leader, nor Jesus Christ himself has no right to consult with the nutritionist......HIPAA puts the kibosh on that shit.

I am wondering if the cheerleaders have to sign a waiver for HIPPA, so the doctors, etc. can talk with Kelli... It seems like this would be the case...

I could be crazy, but wouldn't that be pretty standard for any type of athlete/dancer/sportsball person and their coachs/team owners?  Especially if they're using team doctors, trainers, nutritionists and such.  Their bodies are their job.  I mean, I'd still go off site for my yearly, but if my ACL is wonky and my nutrition needs a boost I'd be thrilled to have professionals at the top of their game.  Except that carbonation causes cellulite person.

You have hit itright on the nail. Kelli and Charlotte along with some minor input by CMT are running the show. I think it was Kelli who said Judy is not comfortable being on the show and in front go the cameras. After seeing and hearing about what is really going on behind the scenes and the last two TCs I do not blame her one bit. It has become more about promoting the DCC Organization, the Cowboys, Jerry Jones, and the DCC are the best in the whole wide universe spiel and less about what it really takes to be a DCC.

That's initially why I thought she was pregnant or something.

Bemoaning the lack of diversity in this squad, and saying someone is racist are miles apart.

But it is interesting that they are being interpreted as being synonymous.

I'm also sad about the lack of diversity on the squad. Since we know the DCC has recruiters, maybe we should encourage them to work really hard to recruit WOC who may be good fits for DCC not just from major universities but also from dance/cheer competitions and community colleges. Maybe the work needs to be more purposeful in terms of diversity in order for the DCC to reflect the true population of Dallas.

I don't think the doctors can talk directly with Kelli.  In years past, when there has been an injury in TCC, they send the girl to the team doctor and then she comes back in and reports what they said.  Both Tessa and Rachel had these scenes. 

If VK didn't show up for an appointment with a nutritionist, it's more likely that production would have been the one to report that she didn't show.

Yes! I work in sports medicine. We do some colleges, minor league hockey and baseball and a quite a lot of high schools. Yes either their trainer or coach or sometimes both come with them at every appointment. They ask questions to the orthos and therapists, they look at xrays etc...They stay on top of everything. If you are paid or have a scholarship there is no such thing as privacy. I'm an xray tech. Although it is probably different with dcc. Not like they are paid a lot of money.

She was called into the office I believe a total of three times including her cut visit.

Most of the girls who were cut haven’t. They tell their loved ones privately while they heal.

If she was called in 3 times...first time to tell K&J she thought she was pregnant...2nd to tell them she had a dr appt on xx date...3rd to confirm her pregnancy!  1-2-3!!  LOL.

Don't forget they have to tell their families, friends and employers they are not with the Cowboys Organization anymore. Priorities posters. Priorities. Cannot stand it when Kelli acts like it is the end of the world if a girl gets cut.

Why hasn't Victoria conceded on Instagram, yet? 

One generally concedes a battle fought between opposing entities (like an election, or a war).  Also I don’t know that a concession post is required by anyone, much less a very young girl who is probably already feeling publicly humiliated. Based on what’s been posted, most of it probably self-inflicted, but still... she’s 18, just learned a huge life lesson in public, I’m going to leave her alone. ?

 

Chin Up, Victoria... what seems tragic today will get better with time. Use it as fuel.

Totally unpopular opinion (sorry!) but I do not understand the Brennan love on here. I'm sure she is a lovely person, but she always looks scared and her eyes are crossed. She's just not fun to watch. I cannot see your average dude NFL fan liking her on the big screen. I don't get it. 

Hopefully she'll prove me wrong in future episodes.

This bothers me because while I understand that they can't be "toxic", it seems like they also can't have an opinion of anything that doesn't conform to what Kelli likes or dislikes.  Just because she was critical of a situation that she may have thought was unfair doesn't IMHO justify cutting her from the team.  Just my two cents' worth as a lawyer..... 

THIS. I appreciate your opinion on this and I agree. However, good for Tara for not buying into the bs that is VK and for not standing in a corner and accepting it as is. A shame she got cut for it though. I really liked her.   

I meant this if this is the true reason behind Tara’s cut. Not implying that it is! Sorry if that wasn’t clear.

Are we sure this happened or is just speculation. Maybe we should give Tara space and let her adjust to being cut before she lets others know what really happened. Will the world end if we did not know the whole story.

I meant it if the speculation about this being behind her cut is true. I certainly did not mean to imply that it 100% happened. My apologies :)

Tara herself could come on here and say ‘I was cut because_______’ and somebody would still not believe it and invent another conspiracy theory.
