I wonder if Kelli has already showed them how to pose sitting down by scissoring their legs. She used to do that almost every year on the show until they stopped including that segment.

Yeah well, Kelli’s back leg was completely bent and Cassie couldn’t get it because she had no room behind her. I kept wondering why Cassie couldn’t get her body to do that then I realized why.

And then there was the year that Cassie was having trouble understanding that Kelli was asking her to drop her top knee to the floor when she was laying on her side. Kelli had to lay on the floor 3 times before she got it.

Yes now it looks like Yuko behind Lexie and Miranda to her right. You can see it in the Instastory but Yuko’s head got cutoff in posting here.

It’s a new game! Guess who this headless cheerleader is. ?

Yes, that is what I referring to. Cassie couldn’t do it because she needed to bend her back leg and there was no room behind her to bend her leg. Cassie knew what she wanted but there was a reason it wasn’t working.

I was wondering about that as well, and then when Judy asked Kelli to get on the floor to pose again, I thought they were just messing with Kelli:)

Interesting that Amy doesn’t have a more central position given her seniority.

They don’t even have that many ‘senior’ vets and they still can’t honor them all? And by all, I mean all three of them. Moving an Abigail to the front is understandable (and had nothing to do with seniority), but they will have plenty of time to move Gina and Alexis closer to the front.

honestly this is very true for me....I turned 39 on Saturday, and I literally weigh less now than I did when I was in the 8th grade.  I wasn't huge then by any means (and sadly, I stopped growing when I was 13, which put a stop to my professional basketball career), but I am a runner now and I hit the gym almost every day, which wasn't the case for me growing up.  A few pages back someone had posted the APF testing Jay does for the girls, and I know I'd crush the running portion, probably do well for the situps....and then, get my tail handed to me with the pushups.  There is no conceivable way I could do 40 pushups in 2 minutes ?

Yes, this is the case with most people I know as well. We realize that we aren't getting any younger, and maybe we should take better care of ourselves. I honestly believe that the women I know in their 40's and 50's, including you and me, would kick butt in that test!!!

Erin should be Victoria’s role model. Like her or not, she was cut last year for being too fluid and she seemed like a lost case, but with only one year of prep classes she got to this!

While she is dancing on the field she be like  "HI MIA !"         

I love Mia anyway

They all look great! Love Gina with the straight hair. And love Laurens slightly darker hair. Their hair and makeup look so good. Whatever they are doing, they need to keep doing it. https://twitter.com/DCCheerleaders/status/1034526183730360325?s=09

Thank goodness they did Molly's hair differently than last year! That hairdo did not look good.

There were actually TWO years of Kelli coaching Cassie in poses for the photo. One was the scissor thing. She couldn’t move back. She was in a kneeling pose for this one.  

The second was Cassie laying on her side... legs not scissored there- that might be awkward for a squad photo (lol)

I’m a professional photographer too - completely agree with your friend. There are lots of tricks to make someone appear thinner when photographing them...and in this photo, because of the movement, Maddie is kind of breaking those naturally slimming “rules”. She may have genuinely gained weight, but I can’t say so just based on this picture. 

My daughter is a professional photographer. I showed her some of the pictures and she was surprised with the poses and how stiff everyone looked. The first thing she said was. "Why do they have guys taking the pictures? Women are much more comfortable posing in swimsuits with a female." Never thought about that.

I agree on Gina, but Alexis is pretty enough to warrant being down front as a 2nd year. She's damn near Abigail pretty in my opinion.

 @Stagecoach They should hire your daughter to be their swimsuit calendar photographer. She sounds like she knows what she is doing.

I feel like there are too many blondes up front. Hopefully they will adjust.  Gina, Lexie, Tasha, KaShara right next to one another.  Also, Jessika right behind Tasha.  Seems a bit much lol

I think it's Lacey, Alexis and Tess smack dab in the middle across the front.  So all brunettes.

The cameos or headshots need another photographer.   Isn't the current cameo photographer the son of the original cameo photographer?    The current pictures aren't good considering what they have to work with.     

Molly's picture is hideous, which isn't easy to do to such a beautiful woman.     Miranda's probably isn't easy to shoot, because of the fouled up chest issue.   

Malena seemed really nice, and would probably do very well in some PR job for the Cowboys, but she'll never succeed as a dancer with memory issue.

In the picture of Group 4, I realize shadows play a part, but some of the rookies look like they have huge thighs - Caroline in particular, I believe. I think Maddie looks great. That being said, it seems like camera angle has a ton to do with how they look. I personally think they all look fantastic and would give almost anything to have ever looked like they do! I'm sure in person they are teeny tiny.

Every single one in the group 4 picture looks like they have short squatty legs...and yes it's all angles.  They really need better photographers or whoever chooses the pics to be released needs a head thump!

You said what I was thinking! It's gotta be angles, no? Kelli hatesss large thighs.
