Okay you're going to have to explain this, please! I was rooting for Viv hardcore until she went off the deep end... 

I think the DCC org made her go off the deep end. I don't think MRS is mentally stable either. 

[Teriyaki Terror]

I am currently watching season 5 episode 1 where Charlotte and Kelli were testing out the HD screen and made the comment not HD ready. You know who isn't HD ready, Kelli, Charlotte and Judy. I am also wondering what former DCCs weren't really HD ready haha.

Also, the infamous panel interview where Brenda said Kat's dress wasn't appropriate for the interview...you know who else isn't dressed appropriately? Jay!!!! His boot camp attire he wears all the time is cringeeeeeeeee! They need better trainers and nutritionists.

Ok prime timers - season 6 is on Pluto right now and it’s all about Mackenzie Lee’s low kicks.

I have always wondered since she was a DCC for 3 years and on show group, did her kicks ever get high? Did they keep her all 3 years, despite low kicks? Or was this just a first season thing that improved?

Recently had that on as a background rewatch too. I guess they must have improved enough to fake it for three years. I mean Maddie was point and she had low kicks too. For as much as they say "low kicks are a deal breaker" - they sure do bring a lot of low kickers into camp.

Is there any sort of compilation of how many years on average girls try out. I keep noticing more and more people in the backgrounds. Recently I followed the Hannah trail. 2015 she had a soft midsection and didn't make it to finals. 2016 she made it to finals but had crazy low kicks. 2017 she didn't go past semis- I am not sure why. Kristin made it to finals the year before she made it to training camp the first time. Lexie was in there before. Miranda too... I just keep seeing so many multiple year girls.

Mackenzie Lee was like this but she got away with it because she was generally liked and she actually made the team. She was always making sure she got herself in view of the camera from when she was called into training camp her rookie year (she made sure to stand right next to Kelli) and any time they called the group to circle up for announcements, etc. There was Mackenzie Lee.

Ehh I'm not convinced on Mackenzie being like that but she is one of my faves. She was also tiny - if she stood behind someone she wouldn't be able to see. I remember a much heavier focus on Karissa that year and I didn't care for her as a dancer.

who's a girl who's so boring/dry from what we saw that you were shocked they got a place on the team? season 8 abby prompted this question lmao

Jax, Molly and Tess we’re all boring to me. This might be an unpopular choice, I always thought Britney Schram was pretty dull. 
But top of list, no contest dullest ever and I can’t believe she was on the squad for so many years: Sarah Gourley. 

[dariafan]

Kim was pretty and seemed very nice , but I don’t understand why she was there.  She never was shown enjoying it   She was nervous and shaken when she got called out 

Red head Jamie also tried out a lot.  I think I saw her starting season 5

Just my .02 but I doubt her kicks improved that much. I always felt she made the team bc she was just adorable and had the look that appealed to kelli. She definitely could dance but if I had a nickel for every time we've heard she's never going to make this team bc she can't kick and boom, McKenzie made it while so many others were cut. The injustice is insane it has to ruin some of these ladies when they watch it back.

I never got the Jax thing either. I loooove Molly as a personality but I always thought she danced like Ashley Paige, super wooden like she had a stick up her back!

I'd throw Simone into the mix for boring. I'm sure she's a lovely woman but she's not the best dancer. That rookie year was pretty underwhelming for a bigger class. Half of them are fab, half of them are 'how did they make the team'? I prefer in the earlier days where they were happier to take less than 36. Less fillers on the squad then! 32 would be just as easy to place on the field and still have 4 groups too!

I agree with those, and I will add Claire (not current DCC Claire, the one who got her hair color matched to the floor). They apparently liked her since she was made an all-star, and maybe she has a great appearance personality, but I never thought her dancing was great.

I think she was so good in the DCC style and she was so short that they could overlook it. The only other one they should've made an exception for was Taylor in s10. She was a powerhouse dancer in their style and Kitty seemed to like her too.

Taylor’s kicks were so bad and she had something going on with a jaw alignment, overbite issue. If they had kept her, I would have thrown something at the tv. I would never of given her a spot in training camp.

I can't even watch that episode or I will have to buy a new TV because I THREW MY SHOE AT IT!!!!  What staged bull shit crap was that?  You know there was a backroom meeting where Char/Kelli said we have to get rid of her because of _________ (I have no idea why, she never was the most gorgeous DCC but it's not like she got worse looking than when she made the team.  And dear Brenda jumped up and said "I'll create some drama and make it happen so you guys will keep me as a judge!  I'd just love a chance to kiss your asses!!!!".

i found her so unattractive. obviously not ugly but she had a strange look. and for some reason she’d tried out more than once but somehow thought she’d make the team with those horrid kicks?

I’m with you on this unpopular opinion. Lol. I look at Morgan and Breelan and so many others and I’m like man, Taylor would have been a shoo in other years. Great showmanship, unique look and good personality. Would have been great on appearances. 
 

Maybe she wasn’t coachable or wasn’t making fast enough progress. She might have had shorter legs for her body type too, like Tara. Kelli always gets a bee in her bonnet about that.

I'm on this train. I honestly liked Taylor's look, and felt that since they even said she was great at everything else, maybe they could make a Loni Lindsey-style exception for her. She definitely could dance, and although I don't speak for all of us, trust me, she'd have strong male appeal (The ultimate goal of TPTB). Even if it was just 1 season, I felt they've had worse girls on for longer.

I never noticed Maddie's low kicks but I did notice inconsistencies. I am a Maddie hold-out though, loved her comeback story, and loved her as a DCC for 5 years, so I probably have Maddie blinders.

I try to hold K&J&C to their word that low kicks is a deal-breaker. They have said this enough times over 16 seasons. This is why I was horrified Taylor in season 10 even got a spot in training camp. You show up with kicks like that an expect to take a spot on the team from someone else? She knew what was required going into auditions and she acted like an exception should be made for her as training camp dragged out. No thanks.

Mackenzie Lee always confused me. I did not want to see Mackenzie cut, but I guess I just assumed her kicks must have improved to have a successful 3 year tenure with DCC and show group. Or did they just cover that up because they liked her? Not sure.

I had noticed Hannah and Kelli Quinn before, but in the past month I just noticed Lexie and Miranda in the background at auditions in seasons prior to them making it to training camp.  And I caught a glimpse of Keyra in Season 11 sitting in chairs. What is more interesting to me are the ones that come back to re-audition after being cut - it seems like they pick and choose which ones they will show as re-auditioning. I bet quite a few more than we realize have re-auditioned and we as fans don't even know because of the lack of footage.

I think Mackenzie's kicks did improve. In the scene where Brittany Evans comes over to help her with her kicks, her kicks did look better (although it wasn't in a kick line, she was still getting them up pretty high). They had to have improved at least a little. She definitely worked hard and did so much that season to keep herself loose and more limber, so kudos to her. I was happy to see her hard work pay off.

I'm such a nerd, that I LOVE picking out all the girls who tried out tons of times, especially when I didn't notice it the first million times. I never saw Keyra in season 11, but will watch out for that next time. I did see her in SEASON 6 auditions, which is crazy to think she made it 6 years later (just like Kelli Quinn making it 7 years after her 1st tryout). Also couldn't believe my eyes the first time I saw Alexis Peterson and Kelsey Lowrance in the seats at the Stadium when Season 8 Auditions start.

Considering she has raised around $2500 in 7 years most people think it is pathetic too. The woman needs to stop the "I was unfairly cut" narrative and actually find a career.

[GBDCCfan]

Just binge watched some of the earlier seasons and I really don't get the love for Meghan Flaherty here. All 3 of her seasons, especially #5 she came across as rude and entitled. I don't recall anyone else being called into the office for being rude and unfriendly to the others in training camp like she was her first year as a TCC. Her talking head moment during #5 auditions she commented that she did not know anyone else brought into TC a third time that didn't make the team so she thought she was a shoo-in.

Judy pegged her correctly: she prepared really well for auditions but cannot handle the daily grind of camp. OTOH, anyone who brings K & J down a peg has something going for them, just not enough to counteract the attitude.

I'll forever give her a pass on making it to TC for them letting Cassie on the team for 5 years.

This is so crazy to me. I always wondered how old Keyra was since they never said, even when she gave her little background story, which I thought was odd. I imagine she’s probably Cersten’s age, since they’re close friends and went to school together, but I also have no idea how old Cersten is/was lol. I guess she could’ve started auditioning as early as 18, but I’ve always been curious. Especially since she said she had just ended an engagement or something

Yes, and she lived with Jennifer her rookie season and they got the surprise nutritionist visit.  They were also both in the group that called in with Chelsea for weight in S8.  I always really liked her, she was mature (I believe she was in her late 20's when she made the team) and had a great look.  Not an outstanding dancer, but I think they really liked her as a person.

I actually don't see the resemblance at all, honestly.

If I had Paramount Plus or something On Demand, I would definitely post a screenshot. Guess I'll have to wait until Season 6 is back on Pluto. There's a scene where Kelli says something to the auditioners, then there's a quick scan of the crowd. Keyra is actually on screen and very noticeable for about 3 full seconds or so, so you can get a good look at her, then there's a good shot of Season 12 rookie Christina Ricelli clapping right after.

I really can't remember if it was Prelims or Semis, but it was definitely the 1st episode. I can safely say it was NOT finals. She's on the left side in one of the scenes where they show the auditioners sitting in the chairs.

Sarah was pretty involved with dance prior to DCC, and she first made the team back when they were filming the 2 hour pilot (although there was not any focus on her for the pilot that I remember), and back then you didn't even need dance experience per Judy! to earn a spot. Sarah probably didn't have much competition on her level with the same experience. What killed it for me was her shorter haircut - it wasn't her best look. She came off as harsh and almost militant.

I know I am not alone here, but Kaitlin LeGrand is my #1 pick to do a "Where are they now?" segment like they did a couple years ago with Courtney Cook, Meredith Oden, Yoshiko, and Deryn. RIGHT? She would be around 29 years old now.

LeGrand seemed like a sweet girl and it was clear she was in some sort of crisis. They should have kept her issues and her cut off the show ☹️

@lemonbus230 ever since the 2019 auditions, a lot of speculation was made about Lisa/Julia/Ashley H bringing their Mavs girls drama onto DCC training camp that year. I read that Lisa teamed up with VK and got Julia and/or Ashley cut, but I already read your earlier post about Ashley getting cut over the tests. Did Kelli catch on to Julia leaving her office and cussing out in the field and cut her for that? After her media interview, why wasn’t Julia let go then? Ashley’s cut I am clear on, but I’m still confused about Julia’s. Was it manipulated for the show? Is there anything you can tell me?

I am no insider obviously, but Julia didn't get cut after media day because she was in a horrific car accident with a concussion and was briely absent from training camp. After K&J met with her about the accident, they stated that the timing wasn't right to talk to her about media day.

Interesting about Julia though, she tried out in season 12 and did not get a training camp invite. (I am not sure if she also tried in season 13). Then she shows up again in season 14 and Melissa has that whole clip about how she was there to fight for Julia. So, seems like issues might have been brewing with Julia prior to season 14 auditions. She was a Mavs dancer so she ran in the same social circles as most of the likely TC candidates.

What is this now about Ashley and tests?
