And this girl wants to try out again next year?  How can Kelli or Charlotte allow that??

Clearly, she is toxic. And fat. 

VK will always look like Miss Piggy to me. Kelli is toxic, too, and needs to retire.

I know for a fact this isn’t true. VK and Brennan were very close prior to and during training camp. They have been friends since at least last year.  VK often referred to Brennan as a big sister. 

Though I have not met Victoria, she comes across as a Mean Girl. And the first rule of being a mean girl is to keep your friends close and your enemies closer. You can call someone your BFF and still run to the boss to try and get their spot. It's not mutually exclusive.

Ok, are we sure none of this is scripted?  Cause this is ridiculous.  The stuff getting said, the way it is getting said, all the crap about the integrity....blah blah blah

@Smplsimon - I'm sure we've asked you this before, but the girls that read this forum -  are they secretly happy about what has been talked about on here this season?

The girls are in three camps regarding this board.  Some of them read it with glee and (privately) talk with one another about it.  Comments from this thread are frequently shared privately between the girls for amusement.  The second group reads this board but fears it as much as many of them fear weigh-in, constantly dreading the day their name comes up (as they know the other girls plus the powers that be will read it as well).  The third group (which I have been lead to believe is very small) avoid it like the plague -- they just don't want to know.

It's hard for them because, with most reality shows, there are various places on the Internet for fans to talk/vent.  For them, all the snark is pretty much concentrated here in one place, making it harder for anyone to really ignore.

They should have just cut Kristin tonight but Kelli was really rude to her! And Kitty telling Madeline she was a cry baby!? So what! Plenty of girls cry when they're called into the office, especially for two nights in a row. I would be afraid of getting cut if that was the case. 

[toopastel]

tonight's episode was fairly meh to me, though I'm happy we finally got to meet some new rookies! and poor Miranda and Madeline! the former, a VET, was brought to tears just hearing that Kitty had made a negative comment about her hair (especially when Miranda said that she didn't want Kitty to change their opinion of her) and this whole nastiness about Madeline seems to come from Kitty's comment last week (and possibly VK according to this board, which I can believe if she really was talking negatively about the rookies to K&J. 

that said...I'm SO excited for next weeks episode!!! I was just wondering if they'd actually show that VK ignored Jinelle's help. seeing even just the short clip of VK in the office, it's obvious that she needs to grow up. a possible employer (of what seems to be her dream job) has gone through the effort of assigning an All-Star Vet to help her overcome that which is keeping her from making the team and VK gripes that Jinelle doesn't have a weight problem? she's still trying to help (and Jinelle said as much). I also can't get over her saying to Melissa that her weakness was that she was so excited to be there lol.

Sounds like Kelli and Kitty are mean girls this year.

Miranda's reaction to her hair being commented on is very telling for the mental well being of this summer's group.

Madeline's crying makes more sense---she was told she was being a bad teammate and for that to transfer into Day 2, while not ideal, is human. 

But Miranda's reaction...Miranda's reaction told the whole story we have all suspected. 

Kristen should have been cut and the editing on this one was too hard to follow---there is a chunk of that conversation missing and maybe it would make the ending make more sense. 

Only positive, I really liked Kelli's hair. That is it.

Gee, did Kitty tell Kelli, Charlotte and Brenda they were cry babies after VK's solo?

[soapmaniac22]

I can only imagine how Judy felt during the upcoming VK and Jinelle exchange. I’d be grinning into my hand bc Jinelle is by far one of the most respected DCCers, and it’s her job to handle VK who is pulling an attitude on her. 

[Jennv]

Kelli was super rude to Kristin, what was up with that? I hate the way she babies some girls and then talks to others like they are shit she is scraping off her Louboutins

[soapmaniac22]

The whole convo with Kristin was weird. I thought she was still cut until “see you tomorrow” lol 

[Teresa]

WOW! Victoria being so bitchy to Jinelle was just jaw dropping even for her! That was terrible! First off, one can NEVER ASSUME that another person has never had a weight issue. For her to be so presumptuous about that was idiotic. Perhaps Jinelle's build would lead one to believe that, but you never know what someone's had issues with. And if Kelly goes soft on Victoria as it seems to be that she did by just saying "You're not ready..." instead of knocking her down a few pegs like she would anyone else about her toxic attitude, then I'm so over Kelli and will have zero respect left for her.  

[scorpio1031]

Is this why they had Miranda live Tweet the ep tonight??  and Jinelle?  What touching moment did Miranda have with K&J?

I agree. It seems a large portion of that scene was cut out and spliced together weird, so she just looks like a random bobble head. Clearly Kelli comes across as rude, but I got the impression that this conversation was much longer than what was shown and Kelli was frustrated with it, so she decided to be direct/rude to get her point across and yet she somehow still didn't cut her? I don't know.

THAT was the real Victoria. That attitude and that level of bitchiness made life hell for the girls all summer. She usually just saved it for when the cameras weren’t rolling. 

[MyFavShows]

If someone sent my big fat self an underweight and petite Jinelle as a weight loss mentor I’d be annoyed too.  As in if I was paying a company for weight loss help and they did that I’d cancel/fire them or at the very least request someone else.   I don’t blame VK for being annoyed.   Plus we don’t know what was said before that scene - she could have had a reason to be defensive.

And VK looked really pretty in that scene and Jinelle’s hair looked like she washed it and blow dried it but didn’t bother to style it.  Also, what was up with her calling girls into the office (instead of the other lady) w/ her hair up in a messy ponytail - I guess she’s exempt from the “camera ready” requirement in this new role she has?

[soapmaniac22]

Telling someone they’ve never had to deal with a weight problem can be hella triggering. She doesn’t know what Jinelle may have been through. I used to have anorexic tendencies a few years ago and it’s a struggle to not fall back in those from time to time and I know that I’m disturbed when people tell me “you never have to worry about weight.” And I’m like...tell that to my mind. lol 

[parrotfeathers]

Dave Ramsey says "you don't ask broke people for advice on money," so I think the same could be said about Jinelle not having a weight problem..

I am embracing my inner mean girl here when I say that I hope with all my heart that Victoria or a really really close 'friend' (waves at Tina) of VK's reads this Board.  It makes me happy to think that VK is getting some of hers back if only through an anonymous fan board.

VK being mentored by Jinelle was WAY above and beyond what should have been done. Plus, VK didn’t pay for Jinelle’s help? In a real world scenario, I would feel the way you do, but this isn’t the real world and it is totally unfair and rude of VK to act the way she did. Not sure why you’re snarking on Jinelle on this? Kitty always looks like shit when she’s in the screen and they let her back on so I don’t see how that’s valid criticism.

That's like not going to a mental health professional unless you know they have experienced mental health issues.  You don't knock or reject help just because you don't like the package its wrapped in -- and if you do, you sure as hell shouldn't be rude about because you are suffering from the illusion that you are a DCC legend in the making while simultaneously being an indulged spoiled twit.

It had to be edited some, but yeah, she seem really to rude to her at times.   I think Kristin is really sweet and pretty.   She got way too much eyelash glue or something going on on her eyelids.   Can’t the make-up/makeover people fix this stuff? 

I thought Ciannas eyelashes looked really weird and heavy too when she closed her eyes.  Some of them look so heavy you wonder if they can open their eyes the whole way. 

[pizzaislife]

Well Victoria officially lost me. The smug laughter about Dayton, the my only weakness is that I’m excited to be here and the rudeness to Jinelle. Peace out. 

Kelli was a wench to Madeline and Kristen. 

Very negative vibe from this season.

[go4luca]

I haven't seen the episode yet but based on some of the posts tonight by you East Coasters, I found these (2) tweets on tonight's Twitter live with Jinelle and Miranda interesting:

If Victoria was uncomfortable with the situation, you talk to Kelli about it before not after the incident. Say, "Hey, I appreciate the help but is there another DCC who's maybe gone through what I'm going through who can also help?" That is what a professional would do.

Victoria is anything but professional.

Well I guess tonight we got a taste of how Victoria acts when called out by someone who is not one of her enablers, and is not bowing to her corner. Who knew Jinelle would be the one to get the tiger to show her stripes??

I love this episode.  Snarky Kelli makes for great tv. 

[MyFavShows]

So no one thinks it was out of line of Madeline to relocate her locker from her assigned spot?  To me that is a little ballsy.   Wonder why she moved it and to where?

[soapmaniac22]

After all this locker room talk with Madeline, someone better eat VK alive for the tone she used with Jinelle. In the words of Ally Traylor “Yes ma’am and thank you”

Was she asked why?  Either way, and I'm saying this as someone who this has happened to a lot, it should have been brought to her attention when it happened.

I believe Kelli said they put labels of where they wanted every one of the TCC’s locker in the locker room and Madeline moved/put her stuff somewhere else instead where they had assigned her.

Im not sure why VK would have to tattle in order for them to know she did this - wouldn’t they notice her stuff in a different locker just by going in there?  Or do the girls all take all their stuff home every night so nothing at all is left there?  Not sure why they have assigned lockers if that’s the case. 

Maybe Madeline dumped her stuff in a familiar place; the locker she had last training camp? And yeah, if I’m a first time rookie, having another rookie who has been here before, like Madeline or Brennan, I’d be happy if they told me what to expect. Those two women had targets on their backs from Day 1. I don’t believe the tattling came from veterans. 

Kitty lost me last week. Kelli lost me tonight. I can’t defend her anymore.

Not really. They don't have their names on their lockers, they just say "Rookie Candidate" with a picture. If Madeline moved her picture, I don't see that as a huge thing without knowing why she did it or who she moved closer to. 

[dbell1]

Some people spend time on their hair and milkshakes. Others spend time being kind and supportive. 

[Loves2Dance]

I can definitely see Madeline offering advice, VK saying something and the reaction being, "Have you even been in TC before?"

As of this episode she claimed she didn't know how precise you had to be when you hit the yard lines. 

Hell yeah I'd be talking to Madeline, Erin and Brennan.

It wasn’t until VK made it a big deal . . .

[soapmaniac22]

She may have moved it to be closer to her friends? Which could have been the current vets that she went through TC with last year and that would be kind of....presumptuous in some eyes.

Shoot, I’d go to Brennan the most for advice. She’s been there twice.

Or did she move away from VK? @SmpIsimon Do you know who she was by or who she moved closer to?

Yep.  VK went after Madeline and Brennan hard.  In some instances she went directly to Kelli and, other times, she got Tina involved, who then reported "her" concerns to Kelli that some of the rookies weren't taking it seriously and were full of themselves.  

I find that highly ironic given that her own daughter didn't even follow instructions about meeting with the doctor/nutrionist AND allowed herself to gain 15 pounds during training camp.  

What did VK do to Brennan?

I think it’s weird for sure, but it’s also weird no one said anything to her right away and cleared it up then rather than wait a number of weeks. A group leader could fix that in about 1 minute then and there.

Seems like Kelli was looking for a fight, not a discussion on a real current problem/solution.

Something is sure off this season with everyone sniping at each other and all the strange teardowns. Miranda bursting into tears because she’s so afraid of what Kitty might be saying to make Kelli dislike her??? Something sure is rotten in the state of Denmark...(or at least at the Highland Park HS football field!!)
