Didn't meant to add this quote^!  Binging Downton Abbey this weekend.  I think the GORGEOUS youngest sister looks like Meghan with the thutt.  Meghan if you are reading this I am mentioning the thutt for ID only, that was stupid.  I am saying you look like the most gorgeous woman on Downton Abbey!

I agree, she seemed very genuine in her rookie season.  I still remember her grandmother coming to Meet the Team night, she was just adorable!  I really thought Kalyssa would be one that would stick around for several years and do well, it was surprising to me that she left so early and then went on to do the type of modeling that she's doing now.

I really liked her in her rookie season. She was one of my favorites, and though she was very sexy she did seem pretty sweet, basically the perfect DCC... in theory. It does sadden me to see some of the things she's done since though, because it seems she doesn't seem to think she has much to over beyond being sexy and I don't think that's true. She also looks a lot more fake than she did on the show. She was stunning on the show.

I’ve always wondered why it was so important for Megan f RIP as she said in her first taking head that it was a new concept for her   So she couldn’t even claim like the other 80 %ish that it’s been a dream since they were 2 

Maybe making it so far the first time made her realize it was something she wanted. And she got to be good friends with girls who made it (Brooke, Tobie, etc.). Just a guess.

Although, had it been me, I would not have come back after that whole "Jacqueline Onassis Kennedy" book report fiasco. Ol' Kels should have cracked that book herself - maybe should would have properly remembered the name of a former first lady.

Oh bless her heart, she really is super rigid huh? And I adored her and really wanted her to make the team. Maybe it was all her gymnastics training but wow is she stiff...

Thank you! I always thought, seriously Kelli you don't even know her GD name and you're calling out Meghan for grace? I love that was never edited out bc Kelli thinks she knows everything and here she is getting her name wrong. Even my husband was like that's not her name!

Episode 104 Kelli's assistant told Kelli about  RIP Meagan not participating in line dancing and other activities because it was hot.  Not sure why this was such a big deal?

I was never a Meagan fan and even I was all WTF? Maybe it was her time of month, maybe she hadn't eaten enough and felt light headed, maybe she just wanted to sit and contemplate life, maybe she was way ahead on social distancing, but whatever the reason, was active participation in inane, non-work related activities actually mandatory? If so, I would never make it on that team. I just can't ever seem to link into the hive mind these gals need to survive the DCC.

Tuna Sandwich with anchovies?

You're expected to participate in everything and be happy about it.  That Mikko chick (the assistant) seemed stuck up and snotty to me.

My bold/emphasis- this comment drives me batty. Can girls and women just experience whatever emotion comes their way without this insensitive, default explanation?

None of us know what Meagan was feeling that day, but it’s very telling of DCC culture that she was immediately labeled “rude” and assigned a friggen BOOK REPORT for having an off day.

No offense intended to anyone who was a Durso fan but I never liked her.  Some ladies don't know when it's time to call it quits.

Holy freaking crap, I can't imagine working my ass off for the better part of a decade and less than minimum wage while everyone my age moves on and the girls around me get younger and younger

I really liked her even though she seemed 'fake,' because she was so optimistic and well put together/well spoken...she was stiff AF but I was still rooting for her? Lol. I have no idea how she got as far as she did cheerleading though, she's such an unnatural dancer according to literally everything I've seen of her

Is it a requirement they do sexy hips anytime they are out and about in a group ???

Sexy hips when in a group.  Thunderstruck at a wedding.  Hand on hip and knee bent when posing for a photo.  Telling each other they love them and they are their bestie on every Instagram post.

I added that, about time of month, because when I have my period my energy is depleted, I am more susceptible to heat and getting up and participating in some inane activity in a hot, crowded place would be the last thing on earth I would want to do. Fortunately, I am finally going through menopause so now it's just the forking hot flashes that screw with me constantly. I wasn't even remotely thinking of it on an emotional level. I was purely thinking of the physical fatigue that can come with a bad period. For some of us, getting our period is far more than just throwing on a pad or tampon and going about our lives. It can be physically debilitating and yes, emotionally draining.

Someone asked a few pages back about why Jordan missed the Game Day bus. I could have sworn in one of the first airings of the show she said something about oversleeping because her alarm clock didn't go off. But it got edited out.

 

I'm re-watching on sockshare, and it was Judy who explained/narrated that Jordan's alarm didn't go off.

CMT played some episodes from Season 14. Cat and Meredith should not have made the team. 

Christina the vet should have been cut. Girl had zero energy. 

VK in the first practice was so over the top. Could only see hair. But Kelli couldn't keep her eyes off of her🙄

It is interesting that most of the early strugglers continued to struggle. Could definitely make the team in less than one week and then just teach the rest of the dances with less pressure.

God, SERIOUSLY. No one even really compared. I would've loved to see her on the team. I think she should've made it the first time around, like someone else said above. She was weird and off her second year there, but I'm sad I'll never see her as a DCC, tbh. She was a knockout the way Kelsey L was

I saw a scene the other day where Kelli asked Judy "would Vivian turn your head at the mall?"  And Judy said "no."  Even Kelli was like "really?" 

Vivian was gorgeous.

Also have Pluto on in the background and always felt that Antebellum All Stars performance at Six Flags was so awkward.  And some of those gals weren’t really uniform ready to the current standard. (Or HD friendly!)

 

I didn't even understand what that was.  Were those real DCC?  They, um, didn't quite look like it.  Why were they dancing at Six Flags?

I got the impression that she was raised very conservatively and that "sexy dancing" wasn't part of the plan growing up.  Or even dancing at all.

I saw that too. Have seen that many times. It's funny because in season 9 when they're discussing Vivian at auditions, Judy was like, "Oh, yeah, I thought she was beautiful, and then I was like, 'Oh, right, that's Vivian!'"

She was more of a head turner than literally 99% of their other cheerleaders lol

She was also a nice change of pace than the typical skinny blondes of the DCC.  I'm not a fan of diversity just for the sake of diversity (like letting a crappy dancer on the team just because she happens to be Latina), but that wasn't the case here.  She was a gorgeous brunette and a powerful dancer.

Agreed! She seems like a lovely person but every clip of her dancing (from the show or from pro bowl vids) she just looks wrong. Her dancing style is just really odd - maybe something to do with how stiff her head and neck movements are?

Thanks for the clarification - point taken.  I probably should have been a bit more clear - going back to read, it looked as if I were attacking you.  I really meant it as a blanket statement for the comment in general (as if saying "you" when you don't really mean the specific person).  Most of the time, that comment is rendered as an insensitive remark to a woman showing some form of emotion (which obviously rubs me a little wrong!).

Sorry to derail the topic for a hot minute with my PSA. Carry on.  :)

Vivian started to come across as a self absorbed airhead...Really beautiful, for sure, but fascinated by her reflection in the mirror to the point Kelli got after her for it "we've told you you're pretty, stop looking at yourself in the mirror"...everything seemed to be funny to her toward the end, including critiques...and she continued to make the same mistakes. Bold dancer, yes...but Bold Wrong get's you cut.

I hadn't noticed at all. lol Kidding. I get your point, and reading back I can see how it could have been taken as "she's bitchy today because...". I saw it more as her being tired, or just not feeling great she she sat out on the activities, which I could have clarified better. 

There are as many different ways to experience your period as their are women who experience them. I was thinking about my own experience and thought "that is exactly how I would have acted in that situation if I were having my period". I just assumed you all could read my mind. 🙂

That's why I think she never really made the team. It had nothing to do with her looks. She can be very pretty (not the most beautiful to me, but beauty is subjective), but the more I got to see of her the less attractive she became because she just came across as delusional to me. Not a good ambassador risk no matter how pretty she is.

Mandy and Kat Rogers. Mandy was the quintessential DCC and there was something endearing about Kat to me. I probably liked her because she was older but still looked so young. I also liked how Kelli said she listened to critique and improved every single week.

I think they made a mistake cutting Vivian the first year. For all you baseball fans, she was like a pitcher who could throw 105 mph, but had control problems. If you can coach them up, you have a HOFer. Given how Kelli likes to take on projects every year, I’m surprised she passed on Vivian. You couldn’t draw up a better example. She was definitely different her second time around, but I think the confidence she would’ve gotten from making the team would’ve been enormous, and you wouldn’t have seen that version of her the second year. That season 8 lineup was absolutely loaded, and she was still able to stand out in the crowd.
