Victoria will make the team. The point is she only makes it due to nepotism and her mother being the bffs with the director and money. If not for that, she wouldn’t have even gotten past semis.

she can’t turn, she doesn’t observe dance space, dances out of control, and I’m not even factoring in things we hear consistently (I’m from DFW) about her attitude and personality.

She will always be an asterisk DCC. I honestly feel bad for her because she will always wonder if she could have made it on her own merit.

People like that don't wonder.  They KNOW that the world is blessed to have them.  We may give her an asterisk, but VK and TK don't see it there.

Last year someone intimated the Malena cut was much worse than what CMT showed.  What did that mean?

I thought someone had said just more of what we saw - major meltdown to the point where she embarrassed herself.  I thought they suggested she not ever try out again, cause I remember thinking what are you doing when she showed up in prep classes.

I wondered if she was "known" beyond the show.

Did she ever train at Kitty's studio? You'd think that would have been a given -- perfect training for a future DCC -- or was Kitty seen as too mean for a younger Victoria (world of difference having her represent your company vs. pushing her onto the DCC).

I would think that if she's a studio hopper cause she doesn't want any criticism, she would probably hop right on by Kitty's.  And Kitty doesn't strike me as the kind of person who wastes time with someone who doesn't listen.  But yet, she will defend her and give her respect🤮

Or maybe getting held up in training camp to long hinders you're ability to attempt getting on another team and gaining experience that way? I'm not part of that scene, so not sure if one is better than the other?

If you're held up in TC for a storyline, then that isn't fair and a waste of your time.  For me, if I'm going to be cut, just cut me ASAP.  Give me a good idea of why, so I can start working on that.  I wouldn't want to keep showing up in full makeup, full hair, wasting my time.  Plus, I feel the sooner you get rid of the girls who aren't going to make it, the sooner you can start dealing with "the final 36."

Maybe they learned from last year that dragging things out until the end is emotionally damaging and anxiety inducing and would rather cut girls now than have several full scale meltdowns in their office. 

Or maybe they’re just trying to make sure they have room for the Beast of Bethusela 🤷🏾‍♀️

Or hoping there's no one left in case she gains 10 pounds over the course of training camp.

[Loves2Dance]

People like Vikkie don't have the self-awareness to understand that she will never be a DCC on her own merit or talent. If she actually understood and could internalize what those around her see, she'd probably shut down emotionally because I don't think she has the coping skills to handle it. If you can not stand to be told technique critiques in a dance studio, you definitely can not handle being told that you are a toxic mean girl that people only pretend to like and support so they stay on your good side. 

People like to harp on the up and coming generation for their entitled attitude, lack of work ethic, need for constant praise, inflated sense of self worth and arrogance...Vikkie would make the perfect poster child of everything people hate about her generation.

Jenn K mentioned being at practice.  She doesn't say if she taught them a new routine or not.  Probably also there to add stickers to the photos of the girls who deserve it, as well as, Victoria's.

A rod had this on his instastory. I'm guessing it was a non filming practice since they aren't in there pink/blue outfits.

Compared to last year when they had made only one cut in 4 weeks, they are moving along.  I hope that means not hearing Kelli complain every week about how stressful it is, or how hard it is.  And I really hope it means not having to hear Kelli jump all over Judy to "Pay attention!!  We need to make cuts!!!"  It's like, did you forget you are wearing a microphone?

Or, more to the point, it doesn't matter if Judy pays attention or not, Kelli's going to do what Kelli wants.

Re-watching the ep with Kitty from last year, it's also doing what Kitty wants, going after who Kitty wants her to go after, respecting who Kitty wants her to respect, etc.  I wonder who Kitty will target this year.  I'm wondering if it's Jalyn.

Lol all my coaches and teachers were famous for saying this. We’d have two-three months before the first competition or a month before the first game and hear “y’all are running out of time! the first game is right around the corner!” It’s to keep people on their toes so that they’re constantly working to better themselves and the team as a whole. It’s annoying but I get why it’s done.

Rewatching Season 13 and just noticed that Kitty was the only one that didn’t put a sticker on Jalyn’s picture. 🤔

The 2 girls standing next to Maddie are the daughters of Alex Rodriguez (Maddie looks their age 😂 )

Next to Erin I see the 2 legacies, Lisa Mills, Julia and Chandi.

Above Erin are Lily and Meredith with Hannah, whom the camera does not seem to love. Left of the always very recognisable Alexis, Tay P, Shaina, my new favourite Amanda Glamazon Dilks, the-future-point-after-the-Jalyn-tenure: Kelcey Wetterberg, and the girl whom the camera is always in love with,  Kat P.

Kristen is to the left of Maddie, in between Savannah and Amber.

Christina, with a deep plunging neckline, is clearly very happy with her purchase and showing them off, and may I add: good for her!

I just felt the need to say something nice this am:

I think VK looks nice in this pic.  I have never been a fan (gur-l get you some self control), and she looks horrific when she over does the eyelashes (multiple THs last year), but this pic is nice.  Ducking and running........

This may be a random question but maybe an insider knows.  Are they required to wear some form of DCC gear even at non-filming practices?   Or all of these women just really that super into their job that they pretty much all choose to wear it?

I'm all for this if it means the viewers don't have to see Kitty at all!

So sad that Kelli still asks for any input from this discredited bully. (I don't include Judy here as I'm not sure that she offers any opinions anymore and if she does if they are considered).  

Respect! the viewers and remove all traces of Kitty snake in the grass from the show. We'll still know she's spitting venom in the background - but we won't be subjected to her loud mouth and tragic hair.

At Cowboys fit encouraged to wear. Usu other times just like it.

Why am I not surprised?  Probably because people gave her crap about sticking up for VK and throwing others and veterans in the past, under the bus.

That is disappointing because Kelli has given Kitty a lot of power over the years and everyone knows that if Kitty doesn't like someone, be it rookie or vet, they don't stand a chance of making the team. I love Jalyn and her being cut, if that happens, may be the final push for me to cancel all my DVR recordings of the show!!!!

By the time Kitty came in, Show Group had already been named and Kitty wasn't a judge so perhaps Kelli shot herself in the foot by putting her on Show Group. Traditionally, being invited to show groups means you're guaranteed a spot---even if you make a large error like Amber did during media training. What got a counseling got Taylor cut.

When they did the episode where the finalists work on their solos with Kitty last year Jalyn was not there. Makes me wonder if Kitty gets offended when girls don’t want to partake of her “expertise “

[Jess14]

I’ve agreed with a lot of Kitty’s critiques in the past, and I won’t lie and say that I’ve never found her to be entertaining. However, my opinion changed last season. What really got me wasn’t just that her defense of VK was absurd, but that Miranda seemed absolutely terrified that she might get cut bc Kitty commented negatively about her look. No outside person should have that sort of effect on the team members. That just made it clear to me that while Kitty may be helpful to some girls, her overall presence is not a positive one.

I agree. She isn’t a positive influence on the process and she seems to have a huge double standard on who she criticizes and for what. She sure isn’t consistent in her critiques.

There are multiple groups that go to Kitty’s, but they only show one.

Kelli Q

Kelli's resume is interesting.  She was a DMD for one or two years.  Then she got cut, right???  Then was an AAIA.  She finally made it to TC on her 4th year audition and made show group that same year and was 2GL last year.  Quite a ride.  PS, she was always one of my faves.

Kelli was a TLD (2013-14), DMD (2014-15), AAIA (2015-16), and  DCC (2016-19).

She and Jamie Eckert (MDC) were on the TLD and DMD together and both were cut at 2015 DMD finals.  They both auditioned for the AAIA and made the team.

I have to agree with Kitty when it comes to Miranda's look.  Even now, she still looks like Grandma Moses to me. 🤷‍♀️ They need to stop giving her blonde highlights and just keep her hair dark. It just ages her and she is a pretty girl.

Kitty has always had a bug up her ass about talented girls who are from not the TX/OK cliques. Any of the girls from either coast, or any girl with tons of talent, she has always been threatened by, because they are a threat to the girls she trains. placing girls as DCCs is her bread and butter.

Nothing chaps her ass more than a girl coming in and making a splash that she has not encountered before. And a girl with actual dance knowledge who doesn’t go running to her for advice — she will torpedo. Too bland, too “fat”, blends, whatever.

Kitty’s pocketbook suffers when girls she does not train make the team.
