Here's miranda when she auditoned for the Mavs Dancers back in 2008. You can see her @ :24 and 3:49.

You'll recognize some familiar faces: former DCCs Kali, Loren, Leah M, Michelle M, former TCCs Leah Parker, Ashley Kelly, Katie Schouten, and finalst Alex B.

Thanks for sharing!  I always like Kali, I was sad when she got cut after her first season.  She seemed to handle it really well, though.

I forgot about Alex B!  I recently saw the season when she made it to finals and I wonder what happened?  Kelli kind of made a big deal about how much they liked her until they started checking her references.  I wonder if she got bad references from past teammates/coaches?  Or if it was more of past legal issues?  She said she used to get a lot of speeding tickets and Kelli had that look on her face like she didn't quite believe her.

It’s weird, but fun, seeing them do a dance that is not Thunderstruck during pre game.  And the DCC sing the National Anthem 🤗 🎤 🇺🇸 

Cassie looks pretty in this video. She wasn't the best dancer or a smiley nice cheerleader but she had a great body, could tumble and sing. I wonder why we don't ever hear about the cheerleaders singing on the show anymore.

I found 2 arrests for her 2005  (petty theft)  & 2011 (DUI) ) one was before she audiitoned and one was after. She might have had more things that Kelli found out about.

What about Kaitlin LeGrand's criminal history? Seems like I saw a mugshot floating around awhile back but never bothered to do a background check on her. 

ETA - found a mugshot for her and the charges.  Wonder if this is ALL she got in trouble for?

The DCC who got in trouble in TC for looking down and is trained in ASL is Kristen.

Alex B lives in Irving, TX. I stalked her FB, ha ha. I think she’s doing makeup merchandising at malls. I don’t think she is dancing but she still has a great figure. 

She was on the 2008 Mavs dancers. I don't think she got to dance that much. She supposedly didn't get along with Shella the former director and ended up leaving or was let go before the end of the season.

Just caught a few min of season 3 on Pluto.  Does anyone remember what those Hoffman triplets names were? I caught Hillary and Haley but didn't catch the 3rd one's name (Hallie/Callie?).

The third one, according to the captions on season 3, is Kali.

I’m watching the Season 3 finals, where 5 vets were cut at finals. I have Leah Mullinax & Carmen Butler, but does anyone know who the other three were? I didn’t recognize faces.

I believe it was Leah, Carmen, Andrea Rogers, Kelli Jo Stauffacher, and Michell Mozek. Bless her heart, Carmen was a 3 year vet and was cut going into her 4th year. I don’t know much about Michell except that she was in Erica Jenkins wedding recently. I was sad to see Kelli Jo and Leah cut. They both seemed so sweet!

Have been watching Pluto off & on for weeks plus watched DCC since 2 hr show.   I am surprised that Andrea Rogers was cut( no idea if DCC or non DCC issues involved)as she was a fathead that graced Kell’s door.  Also it seems nowadays that when some girls are cut, it is devastating.  Watch early seasons when girls accept with grace being cut, thank K & J, shed a few tears versus devastation, tears, mascara running, sobs, etc.  I like when their entire life is not pinned on being a DCC but handling with maturity & grace.

And Kelli Jo is Chief CRM for Ansira, a global marketing firm. So her dancing days are done, but she’s had a killer career.

Same with Carmen Butler.  But we are talking about the year that Nicole Hamilton flunked the written test, as well as, Dara.  Erica Jenkins was warned about her weight and attitude.  Even Abigail was warned about her weight, even though they didn't show it.  The vets were pulled into the locker room the first night of TC and warned they had scored badly and they were eligible to be cut that year.  I would say the five cut were outdanced and outperformed by an extremely strong rookie class.

Was this the year Charlotte asked Kelli "What are you feeding the cheerleaders in the offseason?"?

I think it was season 7. It was the year the 5 vets (Alyssa, Meghan, Kamilah, Cassie, and Jenna) were cut.

yep!

So now we know that Kelli's missed at least 2 rehearsals since MTT started (1. her flight was late and 2. she was sick). Hmmm you'd think they'd be more lenient on the girls but NOPE.

Missing rehearsals twice over 14 years is a pretty exceptional record.  Also, and much more importantly, Kelli is the director.  The requisites she has, and the requisites the girls have, are different.  And as much as I feel for the girls, I honestly get it about rehearsal discipline.  There are nearly 40 different schedules to coordinate, and since the girls are dancing as a team, their performances (and safety in kickline) depend on one another.  I also strongly suspect that unless there was a hard line for it, attendance would be out of control, regardless of individual professionalism.

I’v watched season 10 and now 11 on Pluto tv. All I’m saying is...if Meredith can make the team then Kyndall should’ve made it! I’m feeling really angry about it now! 😡 Same goes for Amy who wound up on the Golden State Warriors.  
 

Also Maddie looks much slimmer in these two seasons than she is right now on the current squad.  Plus her hair looks so much better too!

Kyndall, Taryn, Brennan (the first 2 times she made Training Camp), and more than a few others should have made it, but they actually WORKED to get it and Kelli didn't have a girl-crush on any of them like she did Meredith since Meredith first showed up at auditions.  When she came back the second time, Kelli made DANG sure she got into Training Camp because she sure didn't make it there with her dancing.

Frankly, there were any number of girls who should have made it to Training Camp (and on the squad) over the girls who actually got there, due to physical attractiveness and, more importantly, dance ability.  The current crop of rookies, except for a few, is exceptionally weak and I won't be surprised to see some be one-and-done.

Except she expects them to be there even when sick, so they're just sitting there watching & not participating anyway.  I wonder if Kelli ever considered what kind of performance she'd get from the team if one girl spreads her illness to the rest of the team.

Do you mean her hair looks better in the Pluto seasons?  If so I agree.

Just speculating but it's possible Kelli might have told by Charlotte to get Meredith into TC and on the team.

Kelli could have picked some more of the Mavs girls for finals or even TC. to see how they would have done.

In Episode 1212, when the Cheerleaders performed for some sort of ceremony (football team TC opening?) at the Star,  where was Kelli? All I saw was that Access Hollywood guy and Judy.

I thought Veronica was more than 11.  I also think Paige and Selina were as well...Selina wasn't cut until the following season though.

Again, solid, responsible vets who weren't likely to be cut.  Selina SHOULDN'T have been cut, but I can see why she was if she'd been on weight warning the entire time she was on the squad and either maintained the weight (didn't lose the weight but didn't gain any) or gained more.

I definitely do not disagree with you, I was only responding to the idea that someone who gained 11+ pounds was never cut.  If I'm remembering correctly, Paige was the most, I think she gained about 13 lbs?  Oddly enough, though, she never looked any different to me.

Yup, the Pluto season!  Her rookie year!
