I’ve been watching since season 10. If I can’t put a name to a face then they need step up their PR game.

New list. DCC you forget is on the team. Jessika, Amber, Caroline, and still can’t tell Kelli/Lexi apart.

Lexie, Tess, Jessika, Taylor, Caroline all kinda blend for me.  BUT I can't blame them for editing, I don't think they were given as much spotlight on the show so that's why.

Cheerleaders come and go. The goal here is to make the team, the uniform famous, not the individual women wearing it, and they've been very successful at doing that.

They just need you to think this is a group of beautiful, talented, hard working,  classy women. They don't care whether you know their names. Most fans don't.

They told Jenna she "had more to give" so she came back, and look what happened there, LOL.

I don't think they met "give it to Dak Prescott", though!

Lastly - What a barf of a Halftime Show, it was terrible. Meghan Trainor really tried to do a Dance break bahahahah I was dying laughing the whole show. Someone needs to let her know she aint it, also she needs to realize she is in Last place when trying to be the next B.Spears and a first place dud. 

 

 

Now I feel stupid because I actually put down my potato masher and ventured into the family room because I enjoyed the show so much!

I only remember Tess because she’s so damn tall.

They all look fantastic! Honestly, I don't know how Maddie can look so good and relatively toned in this pic and so out of shape in the one posted above. The DCC uniform really does show all. 

The same way a pair of tight low cut jeans will create a muffin top on even a scrawny teenager:/

Apologies because I know this is off topic for this thread, but I’ve seen people mention Dayton being the lead in several shows on her cruise line.....which shows are those and what parts does she have? I must have missed that info!

If I remember correctly, Shelly said lead in a couple and swing in a 3rd??  She didn't mention the shows and Dayton hasn't said anything yet.  Her mom did say she learned a "Fosse-like" dance for the first one.  She should be heading out tomorrow.  I admit, I'm excited for her and I just know her thru this!!!

Her ship is one of the smaller ones in the fleet, but has more exotic cruises....she’ll be in the South Pacific , Indian Ocean, Mediterranean and Norwegian Sea, same contract Hannah West had prior to DCC. On many of the RCL ships, dancers have a “day job”, but not on her ship. She has been cast in 3 shows on her ship, she’s a lead in two and a swing in the third. 

8 months sailing...9 1/2 months including the training. 

Also from ShellyB (from the locked Finals, Training Camp and Social Media thread, so not directly quotable) Oct 1:

Thank you! After arriving to the apartment, she met her roommates and some other dancers for different ships. She had an excellent first day - orientation, where they did intros and said something interesting about themselves, learned about the shows and each set, then they were off to rehearsal. She loves her cast members, 5 girls, 5 guys and 3 lead singers. They have 3 - 45 minute shows to learn and they learned one 2 1/2 minute piece today, she said it was very Fosse. Plus she’s singing...it’s backup but, she’s singing!

Hello! Long time lurker here, first time poster. 

I have a huge girl-crush on Lauren. I think she is one of the best dancers on the team, and has the sweetest personality. I would love to see her be point next year! But I'm afraid she might retire.☹️ She'd already been an NFL cheerleader for a couple years  before DCC, so I could see where 4 years would be enough of that for her. She also got engaged recently, and doesn't seem to be a favorite of Judy and Kelli. 

 

What do y'all think the odds of her retiring are? And what do you think the odds of her getting point are if she stays? Or even in the triangle?

Cassie has a number of Insta stories featuring the DCC in the Christmas show at The Star.  I think Madeline and Lexie said three costume changes. 

Watching this video, Jinelle is a wonderful spokesperson.  Also, I know the camp is for girls 6-16, but if you get a goodie bag with poms and t-shirt...……..can you have a camp for grownups:P

Looks like they wore their regular uniforms, their red "santa" uniforms, and these new outfits that light up and change colors.  (Terrible screenshots, I know. Hopefully they will have some pics online tomorrow.) I guess the point was to light up the cheerleaders like Christmas trees themselves.

Pics from halftime. Looks like the entire rest of the squad was more visible than the four chosen to dance backup. At least the DCC in uniform were on raised platforms. The chosen four were at the back behind all the other backup dancers.

In her insta story you can hear Charlotte talking about the lights going out on some of their boots. 😂

See from 1:10 on in the back row is Gina I believe. There are those extra hair flips again. I like her but she needs to stop trying to hog the attention by dancing different. 

You were not picked Gina get over yourself.

I watched Cassie’s Instagram story and was more intrigued by the possum in their backyard. No joke.

it’s not the first time i’m noticing this, but she’s always front and center in these videos too and doing her own thing (she’s the only one not stoping after the ‘up’ and doing a different pose looking directly into the camera at the end). I will never warm up to her and I hope that now that they have other choices she doesn’t get point just by default.

Nah don't think so. Vic never gave any indication of wanting to do anything but DCC.

I doubt it.  Plan A  - tryout for DCC.  Plan B - tryout for DCC, and so on, and so on.  It will be interesting to see if she doesn't make the squad next year, if she will look into a different Plan B.  And in all honesty, would her mother have been okay with her auditioning for a cruise ship job?

Oh, I don't doubt that DCC is the MAIN plan for Victoria as that has been VERY clear the entire time, but, given the dichotomy in how Victoria and Dayton were treated, I wouldn't be surprised if the three I mentioned didn't believe their own press and think that Victoria should have gotten this because she's SO amazing.

Always seeing videos of this.  What is this song and why do they sing it?

Royal Caribbean hires performers as "Singers who can dance" or "Dancers who can sing." Dayton was (presumably) hired as the latter. To most people, the lead is always one of the "Singers who can dance." Being the lead dancer is not being the star of the show, it's more like being the lead background dancer. Still takes a lot of talent to get that spot, especially on your first contract.

Believe Dayton is training for Explorer of the Seas. One of the older ships Royal has, but the newer ships tend to get people who have completed at least one contract. Explorer has one really dance based show, and some original shows; not one of the Royal ships that has a Broadway musical. Training now probably means her cast will replace the current one sometime in mid-January.

Wow I am HERE for DCC costume changes. How many different versions of the uniform can we get?? Why was there no turkey version for Thanksgiving??? Will there be a green version with ornaments and tinsel for a new holiday alternate?! 😂 Forreal though I get weirdly into it when they do different uniforms, I think it’s cute and it must be really fun for the girls!

  • Love 4

Ugh, I'm sorry but those half-time costumes are horrible!!

Who told them that looked good? I know Megan is famous for not kowtowing to "barbie" model types but come on. 

The boots are hideous. They look like SS footwear. 

Plus the no make-up, (or not much of it) really hid the glamazons that we all know and have slight contempt for. :P

Do they still wear the pink costumes for the BC half time show?

This is my opinion on Gina. She is a standout dancer with mad skills, but not the first nor last DCC with those attributes. She came around the time when they "lost" Holly P and Erica who are of the same caliber. Fast forward, now there are a handful of rookies that are just as talented with better facials and showmanship. The only thing Gina has to edge into point is senority.

Please don't retire Lauren!

I don't think think she looks bad or "overweight" (don't see a "muffin top"). She has a stockier body build, so she's never going to look "DCC thin" or like the skinny-minis on the team. In the Christmas costume, she just has her back arched -- making it look like she has a stomach when it's really just the position.

Exactly. Do people actually think that is the normal position of her back? Come on now.
