It makes sense the DCC make up a good amount of revenue for the Org. Its sad how they are treated even if it is their choice to tryout. They shouldnt be treated the way they are treated. My personal opinion and from why I’ve read from other former DCC’s, Erica signed a contract and that included the amount of money she received. I think it’s very odd and funny that after she WAS cut then she decided to file a lawsuit. No other DCC has filed this and many disagree as you can see in the comments of instagram posts from Cassie along with Melissa Rycroft. 1 Link to comment

She decided to go out in the bleachers with a drink her hand and sending selfies out to some of her fellow DCCs. She broke the rules and paid the price for it. No one force her to go out to the bleachers with a drink and take pictures of herself without thinking sooner or later it will get back to Kelli and Judy. Jinelle retired and did not try out again. She is an All-Star and just filled in for Yuko due to an injury. It looks like she was hired by the DCC Organization. Season 8 had 32 veterans trying out again. Three vets were cut at finals, Courtney Cook left before TC started, and Chelsea was cut during TC. 27 vets made the squad again along with 12 rookies. Do you have a spreadsheet somewhere? You always have these stats at your fingertips. 4 Link to comment

Whoever replaced Khalyn in the middle (tall brunette), needs more pop if she's going to be right in the middle. I would love to see Lacey at point, but I feel like Kashara has been outdancing her in the clips that I've seen. I feel like Lacey needs to dial it up again. Gina is still outdancing everyone IMO. They should switch her and Maddie in the triangle IMO. 4 minutes ago, kicklinegal said: I think Holly P is a really strong dancer in general, but I actually didn't think she was a stand out with DCC choreo, whereas I think Gina really excels at it!

Gina is excellent in DCC choreo and may give Holly a run for her money in other styles as well. I do think Holly has more sex appeal than Gina though. Gina's facials still aren't the best IMO. 11 Link to comment

They cut girls all the time after cameos when they look boxy or their legs look too short in the uniform.

Kethomp August 21, 2018 Share August 21, 2018 So I found pics from the first preseason game that the DCC posted. If I’m correct, this is Cianna, no? I know angles and pictures can be decieving but she looks very very soft in the middle to me for DCC standards. I found it interesting she made it through with this look because she’s a rookie and there’s been so much talk of cuts due to look/weight this season (both vets and rookies). I honestly don’t know much about her so maybe she’s more toned in person/at a different angle or an excellent performer where they overlook a little softness. Just my observation. Obviously she’s still more in shape than I am! Lol 2 Link to comment
