I agree with you! It doesn’t matter if you have a “big” wedding or not because COVID doesn’t care. It only takes one person to spread it. Personally, I would have tried to postpone my big day because I wouldn’t want to risk being the host of a super spreader event. She had people from all over the country and no masks interacting🤦🏻‍♀️

Tbh it makes me sick. I had to stop following Danielle, Ashley Pro, and some other former DCCs. Just to be so damn brazen with it, when we've been setting new (recorded) case records literally every day. 

Also Texas just became the first state to surpass 1 million cases, but your precious little wedding is the most important thing in the world and god forbid you postpone or downsize for the greater good

The selfishness...it's actually sickening

I love Danielle, but I can’t stand incredibly selfish people so... and she had out of town guests like Heather (whom I also used to love but...).

In any case, she seems like a lovely person otherwise and well liked by her teammates. 

In general I agree with you. Your wedding should be a cherished memory so you should be able to have it the way you want -whether that means save up for years in order to have a huge party or take 5 of your closest friends and get married on the beach. BUT, I don’t think that having to postpone your wedding due to a pandemic is the end of the world. It’s a (hopefully) once in a lifetime thing and something that we need to accept and endure for a little longer. Selfish actions like that is what makes us all suffer.

I’m sorry if I sound harsh, but we’re entering a second lockdown in my area precisely because people can’t sit their butts down and follow the rules. And it was announced that they are looking into the possibility that there is a mutation already and that’s why the cases have risen so fast, which would make the vaccines currently under testing useless AND mean that we would have to start over. So yes I’m hella pissed because I’ve spent 7 months of my life like this and I hate that so many people decided that having the time of their lives during a pandemic is more important than the common good.

You have family and friends and the love of your life next to you? Suck it up, stay home and marry them next year, it’s not gonna destroy your life or change much really. Getting people sick or under another lockdown does destroy their lives though.

Dreamcatcher. What happened with Heather ?

For all we know she could of made her guests get a test done before the wedding !!

Whew. It's taken about 2 months but I'm caught up on this thread... (I have a lot of time to kill while my kids are homeschooling)

I'm SO happy for Jinelle and Katie, but also so curious.... How long were they dating under the radar? Were they both lesbians before, or just fell in love with each other (not that it matters, but it's an unusual situation).

I have been a Dallas Cowboys fan for 20 years, but I really never heard of the "World Famous" "Iconic" DCC until the show came out. I mean, you see the cheerleaders on the sidelines, but for football fans, they really aren't a big deal. On this subject, there is a show called "Hard Knocks" (HBO), and they focus on preseason of a football team (diff team each year), very similar to DCCMTT. Anyway, when football coaches make roster cuts, typically they bring a player in, the FIRST thing they say is "We are releasing you. Here are all the reasons why...". I really think Kelly should do that, not drag it out for 5 minutes telling a girl how good she is, BUT tonight is your last night".

 

I have a lot of thoughts on many topics, but for now, who wants to play DCC Superlatives??

Meanest Kelly Moment: Anytime she comments to herself or Judy about something physical a girl can’t change, like having big gums, or  being “stocky”. Also when she made fun of Colby going "tee hee" behind her hand.

Prettiest DCC: Tasha, Megan McVay, Maggie, Kalyssa, and the GOAT Britney Schram

Cattiest DCC moment: Cassie and Taylor!!

Most pointless/why? Moment(s): The “Fashion Show”. What does that have to do with being a DCC? It’s obviously just an advertisement for Belk.

Saddest moment: When they cut Amy from Illinois. She had tried out 5 times, finally made it to TC, and got cut the last night. She cried and said “Please don’t give up on me”…. They absolutely devastated her, and I really thought she should have made it, even just for perseverance sake.

Most embarrassing moment: Holly’s top coming off! Tin Man disaster.

Funniest moment: Kashara trying to eat shrimp

Meanest Kitty Moment: The time she lined up a bunch of girls and told them they looked heavy. Britney Schram? Heavy? I don’t think so. But stuff like this, no wonder they have eating disorders.

Who should have made it but didn’t: Blonde Courtney from East Tx.  She was so well spoken and poised, I thought she should have made it.

Unattractive (I hate to comment on people’s appearances, but I will anyway): Cassie. Megan Sharpe, I thought she had a very manly look. Colby, just a butterface.

Favorite Rookie Class: Season 7 (I think), with Danielle, Jasmine, Collin, Chelsea, Emily, Kelsey, Jenna, etc…

Veteran cut you love: Chelsey

Veteran cut you hate: Kat, just because she wore the wrong dress?

1. I wasn't a fan of Colby but my god, Kelli was so horrible to her and about her! 

2. I adored Courtney and thought she would've been a great addition to the team. She was one I think would've improved throughout the year, like Kashara!

3. Honestly, that whole incident annoys me. They always say that DCC are meant to be a glammed-up girl next door, and that dress was exactly that. Sure, she could've put a jacket on over the top but their idea of interview attire isn't standard. 

Kat was a fave of mine because her improvement was impressive. You could clearly see that she listened to critique and worked on it. She was very coachable, maybe not the most powerful, but there have been worse blenders than her! I think she would've retired after her second season anyway as she was over 30!

Great awards!!!! The Kat dress thing still bothers me! I get the cut-outs are not interview appropriate, but I thought over all it was more appropriate than what most girls wear and showed less skin 😂 The earlier seasons the girls are all in pants suits, blazers, things you would actually wear to an interview.   I'm not a super conservative dresser when it comes to my corporate job, but I would NEVER show up to an interview or even a meeting with my shoulders exposed or a super tight and/or short dress that wouldn't even pass the bend over test. 

And YES!!!! Kelli really should take that approach on the cuts.  I cringe every time when she kinda beats around the bush and then is like (annoyed) 'maybe I'm not being clear' when the girl thinks there is still hope......Kelly, you are NOT being clear most of the time

Way better said than my rant 😆 you are right, their standard is different, so that outfit was perfectly fine in my opinion unless they just happen to cut out ALL the others girls being asked about their interesting choices too.

What gets me when I see that is that the cutouts weren't even that big and yet in an earlier season you have Ann Lux showing up in a halter dress that exposed I don't know how much skin and Brenda said not a word about it.

I always wonder if there's something we didn't see to that dress...for example, it looked like it was really oversized on Kat.  Because it didn't fit her well, did the peepholes along the side and torso reveal more than they should have?  Maybe they'll talk about wardrobe malfunctions in the context of dancing (Tasha, Holly, Auto Amy) but an wardrobe malfunction during the interview wasn't as interesting, or wasn't caught on camera.  That's legit the only thing I could think of that made it stick out.  I didn't think the dress was appropriate for a professional interview either, but I've seen other dresses that made ZERO sense unless they slapped a jacket over the open back before they entered the actual interview.  IE...the waiting area was excessively warm, so someone took off their jacket while waiting to go in.

Remember back in early seasons when the candidates were wearing legit suits and formal dresses?  I know it's a dance job, but the expectations are pretty freaking clear at this point thanks to a zillion years of this being a reality show.  Why take a fashion risk during an interview for a job?  I've worked in fashion for most of my career and wouldn't risk it.  You can be modern and fresh and stylish while still making a no worries choice.  I think it hurt Kat that she was one of the older candidates too - Brenda probably would have given more grace to an 18 year old that biffed it, but a late 20's career woman?  It did show poor judgement on Kat's part.  Did Brenda need to flay her like she had murdered someone?  No.  I wonder what else we missed in that interview because Charlotte had a big old bee in her bonnet about Kat too.

 

[vanillagum]

Kat's cut made me so sad, she seemed so sweet. I like the unconventional DCC, as rare as they are. IIRC she was a rhythmic gymnast at one point but was never on a dance team. I loved her flexibility. Not the best dancer but so cute. I also really like the older girls for some reason—I'm 24 but I find myself rooting for them the most. Like my girl Brennan. I love their maturity. 

The dress thing was SO overblown. Just say you don't like her and go.

100% to these two points. There's too many regular, pretty girls; give me someone interesting and mature with some life experience, like Brennan, Briana and Kat. I don't want them to look like young girls!

I found the fit of that dress (and the color, but that's just a preference) more objectionable than the little cut outs. Maybe because the dress didn't fit well it made the cut outs stand out more? IDK. Saying that hot pink, ill fitting dress with the cut outs at the midsection wasn't appropriate for an interview is correct, it's just that same comment could have been made to at least half the women who have gone into that interview room. So either they have said it to others and it just was never shown because the show didn't need to show it since either the girl made it or was cut for some other "better" (narratively speaking) reason, or they didn't like Kat and that was all any of them could come up with to pick at her with. Like it could have been done to single her out and unnerve her a little in preparation for dropping the axe later on.

Who knows. There is so much we don't see and so much more going on than we are shown that I can't be bothered getting too worked up about it. It is more interesting to me that they kept it in the edit. Maybe they just wanted to show she had terrible fashion sense. lol

[parrotfeathers]

When a girl's expiration date comes up it doesn't matter what she did or did not do.  Kinda like milk sitting in the fridge close to being sour.  We know it's happening but the milk never thinks it is.  And then wham in the trash you go.

New category:

TCCs that I hope are reading these boards and know that after all of these years, we support and love them and think that they got the shaft:

Auto Amy - agree her cut was the only time I ugly cried.  That girl did EVERYTHING and more that they wanted - except make her legs longer (see the mean Kelly comment)

Meghan - the girl with the gorgeous body and face, the girl who could dance at Holly P levels, the girl Kelly made up an unfortunate word to describe her body (again, see the mean Kelly comment)

Hey you two!!!  You will probably have a little trauma for the rest of your lives, but remember this - you got treated horribly by Kelly, but it gave you a HUGE fan base amongst the real fans.  We all want only the best for you!

Absolutely.  I really think Charlotte told Kelly it was time to ditch Kat.  Kelly picked one of her henchmen (Brenda) and told her to handle it. Brenda went way overboard in an effort to impress Kelly.  So far overboard that even Kelly called her out on it.  It was absurd.  Just quietly cut the girl for pity's sake!

Also, I understand that in my corporate world or Brenda's TV world, that dress wouldn't have been appropriate.  But, hey Brenda!!  Are you reading this????  Showing up to be ON SCREEN with no makeup on like you did (was it last year?) is also inappropriate!  The DCCs and TCCs can't even practice looking like that!

Not a scandal, not trying to start rumors! I absolutely love her and she seems mature, but she’s one of the few dcc guests I’m sure doesn’t live in Texas anymore, so I’m not happy she went. I’m not judging her as harshly as Danielle because well I don’t know whether she decided to make a road trip out of it instead of flying in and she’s one of the very few dccs who doesn’t post nights out etc. Either she legit stays at home with her partner or she’s smart enough not to flaunt it on social media.

Eh exactly, and unless they’ve quarantined for 2 weeks before taking the tests, even a negative test isn’t worth anything.

I understand some posters on the forum might consider this excessive,but this is such an unusual moment in history so I can’t understand those who act like nothing has changed. Especially when so many people have had to make drastic changes in their lives, lost their jobs or loved ones etc. And well yes I’m furious that we got into another lockdown after months of following state-mandated rules (so not exactly the same situation as in the us where you don’t have federally imposed laws on covid), just because a smaller part of the population just don’t get it. And I mean, we have the internet, we have more entertainment options at home than ever before... no susan it’s not that terrible to spend even a year limiting social interactions, parties etc when you can have chill nights at home with select people, go outside in non-crowded areas etc. We’re not exactly battling black death during the middle ages here, get it together for the sake of everyone else if not for yourself.

[Mabinogia]

I am watching the uniform fitting with Meagan of the sexy, husky voice. I see nothing at all wrong with her bottom. I see a typical ass curve, no thut at all. WTF were they pointing at? Meagan didn't have a bubble butt, but it wasn't some straight backside with no curving. Was it because it was slightly below the shorts line? I am assuming that's what they meant but she looked fine in the shorts so I just feel like they were looking for a reason to cut her (don't know why) and Kelly wanted to show off how clever she was by coming up with "thut". 

I know being on this team is something these girls would die for, but I always find myself thinking girls like Meagan, and some of the others they have picked apart, are so much better off that they don't make the team.

Also, same season, I actually prefer Lauren with blonde hair, not the dark haired makeover they gave her. 

Oh yay, I'm at the part where Vivian talks about her thousands of friends on FB. lol (I have a feeling she was hearing about the vet who was treading more than Miley Cirus and thinking "OMG that's what I want!")

Possibly an unpopular opinion, but I loved her brunette makeover!  Her blonde was definitely too yellow and she honestly kind of blended in with blonde hair.  I kept getting her and Buccaneers Courtney confused until after the makeovers, after that Loren really stood out to me!

I’m right there with you. Loren’s blonde hair really wasn’t doing her any favors, and it was apparent once she got her brunette makeover.

Not a scandal, not trying to start rumors! I absolutely love her and she seems mature, but she’s one of the few dcc guests I’m sure doesn’t live in Texas anymore, so I’m not happy she went. I’m not judging her as harshly as Danielle because well I don’t know whether she decided to make a road trip out of it instead of flying in and she’s one of the very few dccs who doesn’t post nights out etc. Either she legit stays at home with her partner or she’s smart enough not to flaunt it on social media.

True, but I think that’s more of the vibe nowadays. They all wear colorful dresses that are a bit too short and skin tight for interviews.

Eh exactly, and unless they’ve quarantined for 2 weeks before taking the tests, even a negative test isn’t worth anything.

I understand some posters on the forum might consider this excessive,but this is such an unusual moment in history so I can’t understand those who act like nothing has changed. Especially when so many people have had to make drastic changes in their lives, lost their jobs or loved ones etc. And well yes I’m furious that we got into another lockdown after months of following state-mandated rules (so not exactly the same situation as in the us where you don’t have federally imposed laws on covid), just because a smaller part of the population just don’t get it. And I mean, we have the internet, we have more entertainment options at home than ever before... no susan it’s not that terrible to spend even a year limiting social interactions, parties etc when you can have chill nights at home with select people, go outside in non-crowded areas etc. We’re not exactly battling black death during the middle ages here, get it together for the sake of everyone else if not for yourself.

and to move on from this happy talk, WHY havent they asked Mary yet to choreograph for dcc? She’s amazing:

I was rewatching the Kalyssa season panel interview, they asked her who the first lady is, she didn't know, then a minute later she said she thought they meant the FIRST first lady (not Melania Trump)... OK, if she didn't understand the question, fine, but shouldn't she have heard of Martha Washington?

That one always confused me. I chalk it up to nerves or her mind just going blank. I feel like the whole "first first lady" bit was an attempt to cover up the fact she had a total brain fart. I know that in interviews I've been asked something I 100% know the answer to but nerves seem to have hidden that answer somewhere deep inside the dusty corner of my brain right when I need it. 

I honestly think that's what happened with Kelsey and the 50 yard line thing. I think she was just so nervous she said the first thing that popped into her head. If she hadn't just guessed and answered wrong she might have done better because girl was STUNNING and they were fools not to take her for something that is totally learnable with just some studying. 

I do think/hope that they are judged just as much on how they don't answer a question than whether they know the answer. They are going to be asked questions IRL that they don't know the answer to, no one can know every answer to every question, so it is how they recover that matters. Kalyssa did handle herself well enough during recovery. She kept that smile on her face, laughed it off and carried on. 

I think the ones who can't answer the question then just stare like a deer in headlights are the ones who are in danger of being cut for interviews.

Meghan from Season 6 comes to mind with your theory. She handled her Commander in Chief flub very well, which may have helped her get a spot in training camp.

That annoyed me too. It surprises me how little these girls seem to know. Sure they are in a pressure situation but come on - you haven't heard of Martha Washington? I am not even American and I knew that. I don't follow the cowboys and really know not a lot about american football in general but even after watching the show I knew a lot of questions that they were asked on the panel interviews - like how many yards a football field was .... 

[AnotherSadLove]

Most of the time it’s not them not knowing the answer but combo of being nervous and not expecting a certain question and having as someone stated a brain fart. 
 

my boss’s boss came by and spoke to me one day and I was so shocked and nervous that when he saw a picture of my niece and asked me her name it took me a whole minute to remember......and I only have one niece. 🥴

She lines up a handful of of them and tells them to get in shape, but the one TCC that she's known for years gets leeway? Bull. I'm glad she's not on the show anymore. She'd be calling Daphne and Gina overweight is she had her way.

You stole all my answers!

Kalyssa also immediately answered the next question correctly, which was about the director of the FBI, so I definitely think it was a brain fart more than anything else!  I was glad that they gave her some grace on that one, anyone can have a moment of panic and just blurt out "I don't know!" rather than actually take a moment and think about it.

Kelsey was such a funny mix of what would have made a great ambassador (warm, friendly, pretty) and what would have made a terrible ambassador (lack of knowledge about football and the Cowboys, blurting out a dumb answer instead of pausing to think), I don't blame them for eventually erring on the side of "good ambassador" with her.  I remember seeing her as a veteran when they went to the VA hospital and she seemed totally comfortable talking to everyone.

And yes, much like a dance mistake it's all about the recovery when you flub an answer!  We've seen plenty of girls charm their way out of not knowing an answer.

One of the ones I cringed the most was actually Dayton her first Finals....the I don't know, but will get back to you???  I instantly thought this poor girl probably googled 'generic responses to questions you don't know the answer' 🤣 Like come on girl, you know this interview doesn't work that way! 

I can't remember where I read it, but it said something along the lines that Kelsey had said that she did basically have a brain fart and in a panic thought of the phrase 50 yard line girl (or whatever) and just said 50.  Not sure how true that is and it does seem like a little bit of a stretch, but hey, if I was nervous enough, no telling what would come out of my mouth

Oh, yeah, that was such a weird answer from Dayton!  And yes, I've certainly been in job interviews where that is actually the best answer (and you follow up in your thank-you email with the answer), but that's for like technical questions.  I could just imagine her leaving the interview, googling "who is the Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback" (or whatever the question was) and then sticking her head back into the interview room to tell Kelli.  LOL!

Plus after Kelsey said "There are 50 yards on a football field... No wait, 100 yards.".... She knew the answer, just made a slip. But they edit her so poorly, making her look like an idiot. (or as Kelly would say later, "humiliated"...)

Oh, I hated when Kelly sad that to Kelsey, about being humiliated. WTF? I'm pretty sure it was the same office visit when Kelsey thanked them (very graciously) for giving her a second chance and Kelly responded with "I don't think we did". What is that supposed to mean? Yes, you did give her a second chance. Maybe in your eyes she screwed it up but she is there, for a second time, which is exactly what a second chance means you moron!  Sometimes it is Kelly who has the brain fart. lol

IDK why she was so hard on Kelsey. That girl was a great DCC. Stunning to look at, great personality, able to laugh at herself, tried hard, and even if she wasn't the best dancer, she was eye catching. She had that "it" factor. The only think I can think of she did wrong was give a really silly answer to one question, but even that she handled well IMO. 

Full disclosure, she and Brittney Schram are hands down my favorite DCCs so I may be a little biased.

Jacie and her man broke up? I stan Jacie and only want her to live her best life, so if he wasn't it, good for her. But, I'm sure there is real heartbreak in any broken engagement, even if the person realizes it's for the best, so I wish her well in mending her heart (not saying I know it's best or that she feels that way).

I don't think Kelsey corrected herself with the 100 yards. I think they asked a vet the answer. Based on her total lack of knowledge about other parts of football until the first year she made the team, I'm not sure I buy that it was a brain fart. That said, I looked at the first few (of hundreds!) of Quizlet flashcards with questions to prep for the written exam someone posted on another thread and I got most wrong. I do have football knowledge and still found it challenging, so if you don't study football AND Cowboys history as well as current events, the written part is not likely to go well for you. Kelsey was a beautiful young lady who seemed very personable and sweet, but her self-absorption with her looks seems to occupy the center of her life (at least as presented on social media) and that is just a turnoff to me.

Thanks for the post and link about Mary's choreography! Love, love, love her! But, I was disheartened to see she was an unmasked and non-social distancing participant of Lacey's wedding and her wifelorette party thing.

No, Kelsey corrected herself but she honestly did it in kind of an airhead way.  After the judges questioned her, "50 yards on a football field?"  She did something like, "Yeah... oh, wait, no!  Whoa, just kidding."  I don't think I'm explaining it well, but basically she didn't correct herself until they made it obvious she'd made a blunder and she didn't do it in a very graceful way.  I liked Kelsey a lot, I think she was a good cheerleader even if she wasn't the strongest dancer.  I think they were hard on her, but she seemed to respond to that coaching style and not take it personally.

My husband and I are rewatching the Sopranos, and in a recent episode there was a stunningly beautiful actress guest starring. I was curious who the actress was because I had never seen her before, and it turned out to be Sarah Shahi! I’ve heard her name as a former DCC but I don’t think I’ve ever seen her before. Her DCC cameo does not do her justice. ETA: I think she’s very pretty in this picture but even more so on the screen.

I didn't know she was a DCC before! She's in some of my fave American shows: Chicago Fire and The Rookie!

What was it Shelly B said - made the squad, made the calendar cover (girls who just made the squad used to go on the calendar shoot), cheered for one or two games and then quit???
