sleepyjean January 13, 2019 Share January 13, 2019 Well, I started last year's thread almost exactly one year ago, so I guess it's time to start the 2019 thread. (For reference, here are the complete lists of last year's finalists and TCCs). I will be very interested to see what becomes of last year's eliminated TCCs. I believe this was the order of their elimination: Jasmin Ammons Lindsay Brady Dayton Bramhall - definitely will not audition Taylor Tauss Kristin Dodd Victoria Kalina - definitely will audition Malena Brown Lily Johnson Prep classes are underway! With Michelle Keys out of the picture, I wonder who most of of the women will flock to for class. Sarah Idziak and Jenn Amburn? Jasmin Ammons and Taylor Tauss attended Jenn Amburn's first 2019 prep class. Also in attendance were Kali Mikelson (2017 finalist, 2018 semifinalist) and Kylee Wideman (2016 finalist). I will be interested to see if they audition this year. A few other women commented on the post below that they were also there for the class, but it's hard to tell who is prepping for tryouts and who is just taking class for fun. Someone else I have an eye on is Kelly Porazzo, who has been auditioning for a few years. She's made it to semis a couple times but never as far as finals. She's always been a blonde for auditions, but she just went brunette and moved to NYC to spend the next several months preparing for auditions (DCC auditions, I assume, although all she said was "NFL auditions.") Moving to NYC is an interesting strategy. While I'm sure there is a wide variety of classes and coaches available, I hadn't heard that NYC is a mecca for power pom, high kick, and competition-style hip-hop dance styles needed for DCC. And finally, I just have to say a little "woohoo" for Hannah Prosser, aka "Road to DCC girl" who I've been keeping an eye out for since discovering her. Hannah is the girl who as on her college dance team in Wisconsin and dreaming of (and working toward) auditioning for DCC for years. She missed last year's audition but now she's finally in the right place at the right time. She's moved to Dallas, is enrolled in graduate school and is teaching dance on the side. She's all signed up for prep classes and I am excited to see how she does. Just getting to audition is a huge deal for her. 6 Link to comment
sleepyjean January 13, 2019 Author Share January 13, 2019 I forgot one other thing, three women who could potentially be DCC legacies this year: Cami Branson - former "cheerlebrity" and daughter of DCC Candy Branson Christina Ligi - younger sister of DCC Gina Ligi Eden Greenhouse - younger sister of Mia Greenhouse All are currently seniors in college, and have also been on their respective college cheer/dance teams. I'll be on the lookout to see if any decide to audition for DCC this year. 6 Link to comment
scorpio1031 January 13, 2019 Share January 13, 2019 Shelly had prep classes before Christmas. I know some of the cut TCC's were there including Lily and Jasmin. I don't think VK has attended any prep classes at all. I'm hoping that Malena has moved on and has a fantastic new job. Dayton seems to be having the best time. It will be interesting to see who takes Michelle K's spot. I was trying to think of someone who has the choreo skills to do it. Danielle, Amy T, Melissa W and Mary have filled in for Jenn - her classes always seem to be full. She's mentioned on Insta that there will be tests similar to what is given at auditions and she has former DCC help with showmanship. 6 Link to comment

Not sure which one you're missing, since I can see it in your quote. First link was to Jenn's Instagram, second was Kelly Porazzo's and third was Hannah's. Here are the urls for their main pages: https://www.instagram.com/jennamburn/ (Direct link was to the video from yesterday's class https://www.instagram.com/p/BsewmHnA_2b/ ) https://www.instagram.com/kellyporazzo/ https://www.instagram.com/road_to_dcc/ As for Tara, I think she's done. Unleeeesssss there is some backstory about her being ill or dealing with some horrific personal situation that was affecting her during training camp. If there was something that wasn't her "fault" but she is able to overcome and return triumphantly, I could see it. But if she was cut for any other reason, she's done.

Tuxcat January 13, 2019 Share January 13, 2019 Someone posted the below on Jan. 4th on another thread There were pictures of these girls on their stories. There was a group shot that captioned "missing Lily tonight" or something like that. So should we assume that Malena is trying out again? Maybe some of them were just visiting. "I think JennA is a good teacher. I saw that Taylor, Malena, Jasmin, and Kristin from training camp were at her class yesterday. Kylee was there too, I saw Jenn reposted her video on her instagram story" Link to comment

EricaShadows January 13, 2019 Share January 13, 2019 (edited) I don't think Hannah Prosser (road_to_dcc girl) will make it past the first round unless she's VASTLY improved from the videos we saw of her before. I think she needs some more time as well as some experience on another team, like the Ice Angels, before she would have a solid shot at DCC. Edited January 13, 2019 by EricaShadows 7 Link to comment

Not just the choreography, but her emotions? IF she comes back stronger (like Erin did) but IMO I don't see her making the team. I can see her making TC a 2nd time but getting cut again. I wonder if Sheridan Lewis would ever audition for the DCC again. She was the one who got sick at semis/finals a few years ago and was on the (now defunct) 2015-16 Texas Star Dancers.

CrazyInAlabama January 13, 2019 Share January 13, 2019 I'm hoping some like Malena won't audition again. I'm sure Kelly F. knew she wasn't going to make the team. In my opinion Malena is a solo performer, not a team performer. She couldn't dance with the group, on the field or in the studio, but by herself she's stellar. It was mean to not say something when Malena said she was going to quit her full time job for DCC, when I'm sure they knew that she was going to have to improve a lot to make the team. I'm not sure I'm watching this season, after last year. I may watch the first episode, but I'm not even sure of that. Even if a certain person comes back healthy thin, nicer, and dancing much better, I'm still ticked about the lack of criticism compared to other TCC. The extra chances she was given, in my opinion, and the disrespect should have ended her chances, but I'm sure she'll be in the front row for everything again this year. 13 Link to comment

sleepyjean January 13, 2019 Author Share January 13, 2019 @EricaShadows, I was just looking at when you said this last year: Quote Random here, but I was just checking on Mary Kate Domino's Instagram and it's still gone. For those of you who don't remember what happened, she was a former DSIG who auditioned, didn't make it to Finals, posted a clip of her finals routine, then not only took it down a short time later, but deleted her whole Instagram account. Supposedly, comments made on this board were one of the reasons she took it down. I can't seem to find her on any other social media as a dancer, either. I wish she'd return to social media and post, but I can understand why she hasn't/isn't yet. I wonder what's going on with her. Mary Kate is back on instagram. I'll be curious to see if she auditions again, and if so, if she takes her account down. 1 Link to comment

I'll be curious to see if she auditions again, and if so, if she takes her account down. Mary Kate can definitely dance, but as of July 2018 this was her post: "I’m actually retiring, for real this time. And it has nothing to do with “giving up” and much more to do with the fact that my goals have changed. I always sought out and loved dance team because it gave me a chance to do what I love and build a community of best friends to do it with. But what my year off taught me is that I don’t need to be on a team to do that. Performing is a rush, but my favorite part was always grinding at practice with my best friends; training to get better. I’m going to keep doing that until I physically cannot dance anymore but never again will I have to get a spray tan or wear fake eyelashes, which is pretty spectacular. I’m incredibly blessed to have had opportunities others can only dream of! I will cherish those memories for the rest of my life. Thank you to everyone who has been a part of this adventure 💕 On to the next one" She didn't make the DCC or the Mavericks so I have a feeling Mary Kate isn't coming back. She seems to have gotten the running bug---I have a daughter who does competitive running and it's definitely addictive. Good for her! I want to root for a girl like Hannah, but I can't. She is a pretty girl, but she has a very juvenile look and her dancing just isn't there. It's more than just not being DCC ready, I don't think she's any team ready.

EricaShadows January 14, 2019 Share January 14, 2019 I'm glad that Mary-Kate decided that there was more to her than auditioning for NFL/NBA teams and that she's in a better-for-her place then she was earlier. As for the rest, I hope Lily and Brianna Arredondo return. Brianna was a Dallas Mavericks dancer for several years and was even the team captain at one point. I think putting her next to a girl who was SO much taller than she was during kick line last year hurt her. She's also currently an Ice Angel. Link to comment

I have to research Cami...337k followers is BANANAS. Why on earth does she have so many?? Cami was a 'celebrity' in the all-star cheerleading world. She competed for Cheer Athletics and Spirit of Texas. It's seems crazy but there are some cheerlebrities that have put themselves through college because of the coin they've made thanks to massive amounts of instagram followers. 4 Link to comment
rose711 January 14, 2019 Share January 14, 2019 Add me to the people that hope Malena has moved on. Her nervous breakdown at her cut should be enough for them to keep her away from the team. I also felt she was used, but I don’t think their intention was to trigger a complete collapse. She was way too intense. 12 Link to comment

Brianna was a Dallas Mavericks dancer for several years and was even the team captain at one point. I think putting her next to a girl who was SO much taller than she was during kick line last year hurt her. She's also currently an Ice Angel. Brianna was a Spurs Silver Dancer and is currently a Dallas Stars Ice Girl. 1 Link to comment

She may have changed her mind, but she has posted here before and said she only takes the classes for fun. 16 hours ago, dccfan37 said: Cami Branson @camibranson1 Is she the one who was heavily favored to make TC back in 2017, made it to finals, but then blanked on the finals routine? 1 Link to comment
