This may seem true and fair, but if they want to brand themselves as role models then they need to consider racial diversity when selecting a team. If they want to inspire young girls to get into dance class, follow their dreams, aim big and aspire to be them aka spend money on their merch, come to their meet n greets and try to attend their performances...then they need to make more effort to actually look like their customer base. 

That is why racial diversity matters. 

But, it's the DCC, it's Texas and it's the Jones family so it'll go ignored, but it really shouldn't. 

SO glad you expanded on this. Because diversity is not the same as diverse looks. Lawd knows they find much less significant and completely fictitious reasons to place or cut people anyway. So this is nothing to avoid, because...reasons...(cough limited scope of human value, and devoid of what real people want)

Can someone please explain to me how in seven hells Kat made it not only into TC but onto the team as well?!  

There better be some Gandalf level Phoenix rising from the ashes shit happening during TC because otherwise, TBTB had a hella lot of magic mushrooms circulating for this to happen.  Seriously.  I’d love to see the team grow some diversity but not like this.  I can’t even get my brain wrapped around her cray level of whacked.

Feel free to send me a therapy bill.

100% agree

[parrotfeathers]

I'm thinking we are going to see a "miraculous" turn around for Kat.  I wasn't crazy about her at first, but she seems to have a very dorky personality that would be well received in the locker room.  She seems to be able to laugh at herself right now.  

I didn't think I was going to like Charmin but I do now.

Gabby was cut over weight but Maddie looks soft 85% of the season? girl ok Kelli jewel-tone sausage encased Finglass.

The difference being you were responsible for them at the job site. You weren’t expected to follow them home and police what they do, who they date, where they go in their personal life. At some point people have be responsible for themselves.

Sorry, but these girls are on a job site. They receive a wage for being a DCC, a wage they agreed to. I'm not remotely trying to be combative here, but they signed a contract binding them to adhere to DCC code of conduct. How is this not a job? Vets returning to auditions have even said this is a job.

[Agent Gully]

The only possible thing I can think of (beside nefarious situations aka making room for a favorite or something, cough) would be that (I think) Gabby was on WW last season and then got into good shape for the calendar shoot. Likely they told her to stay at that weight and then she comes into auditions looking much softer than her calendar weight. As for why some have their weight either overlooked or tolerated better, I guess it is just favoritism. Or, more properly worded, unjust favoritism. JMO

Nicole (Season 5 Rookie), Emma (Season 6 Rookie), Danielle (Season 7 Rookie), Lacey (Season 9 Rookie), Stephanie (Season 10 Rookie), Tasha (Season 11 Rookie) , Kelli (Season 11 Rookie) and Khalyn (Season 11 Rookie)! 😊

[PrincessLeia]

Gabby was on weight watch during the season. She slimmed down for calendar and then gained again for tryouts. They probably just didn’t want to fight that anymore and there were rookie candidates they wanted to take.

[GeorgiaPeach11]

I loved loved KATY. She can dance. But it's no surprise that they cut her for weight. Interesting to me that when Daphne was on the same team as KATY in college she was bigger (not fat) in size as well. I hope she comes back next year and makes it all the way.

We won't be seeing Kitty on the show this year from what I've been told. 

Kitty has been on vacation most of the summer, and just returned to DFW in the past couple of weeks, so I would be surprised if we see her.

I didn't think I was going to like Charmin but I do now.

Kat doesn' t mind making a fool of herself which is refreshing and human.  The problem is it doesn't fit the DCC mold.  Sometimes she reminds me of somebody's old drunk auntie at a family picnic which probably makes her a riot to hang out with but could make her a public appearance risk.

I'm a diversity soldier so I hope she gets it together.  The edits are so frustrating because one minute her kicks look high and the next she's a complete mess.  That solo would've been awful even if she remembered her intro.  She was holding a cane the whole time - terrible idea.  I know she's on the squad now, but I still hope to see improvement so COME ON KAT!

[GeorgiaPeach11]

OK, this my last and final statement on weight discrepancy that the DCC and K&J seem to have.

Reasons it is a big deal to me:

1. They have taken girls in with bigger weight issues than Gabby and they have been able to become Group Leaders/Points.

2. Mentally you can damage a person's psyche. Need I mention Courtney who had to leave the squad because of an eating disorder. Im pretty sure a lot of the girls have some sort of mental anguish now from being on this team and it needs to be brought up. That crazy Chelsea girl was right that sometimes I think the judging is out of line..I've seen these girls in person multiple times. They are Kate Moss skinny sometimes it looks painful. 

3. Not to bring of diversity/racial issues, but it does seem like the white get passes when it comes to belly giggles and it just frustrates me so much.

Now I understand it's their job to stay in shape and had Gabby been like that girl Katy I would have been ok with her cut, but to me the wiggle she had was something that could be fixed before season. She wasn't fat in the least bit.

ex. of girls with similar or more wiggle jiggle that went through Finals and TC looking like this and still made the team... I mean come on now....

THIS!!! 1000% agree. Also, idk the girls name that tried out at finals but didn't make it but she was a light skinned African American girl with curly hair..actually there were 2 with curly hair one a bit darker than the other, anyway they were adorable but both got cut. I would really like to know why.

Also please tell me that I was not the only one that not8ced the exchanged look between Melissa and Charm when they were discussing Malena.

Well, now you have me wondering... Hey, Face Off fans! Was Amanda one of the models when they had the Tim Burton challenge? Or was she only 12 years old at the time and the years have gone by faster than I’ll admit?

That's IT!!  Amanda DOES remind me of one of the Face/Off models!!  I've been racking my brain trying to figure it out 🙂 

[hypeman]

Damn, Ashlee looked fabulous!

[SmpIsimon]

Lisa does not like Julia.  I heard she went out to celebrate the night she was cut (and thus wasn't at IHOP).

Also, someone at finals told me that Christina's solo was horrible, but I didn't think it would be that bad.  How she made it back is beyond me.  Girls on the team consider her the weakest of all the veterans.

Omg Maddie and that half assed hip hop. If she is going to do tricks like those terrible aerials and flips at least do them correctly and finish your moves. One day we’re going to find out she’s Jerry’s secret love child or something bc she sucks. Also overweight or of shap again.

gabby got cut for attitude/snark with weight as the excuse. The end.

I've been binge watching this season of So You Think You Can Dance, and man, switching over to this is ROUGH in the dance department. You really get a sense of who's a legit dancer and who's a cheerleader with a few dance moves.

On the VK front, I really disliked her last year, but she was 19.  NINETEEN.  We all sucked at 19.  Her answer in the panel was genius, her dancing looks fine, and so far I haven't seen her do or say anything that would indicate that she hasn't worked her ass off and learned a lot through the experience.  So I'm giving her the benefit of the doubt, and hope she proves she's grown and matured both in her personality and dance skills.

I missed the Malena moment between Melissa and Charm. I will have to watch back now, I was top busy being mind blown by them discussing Gabby being a weak link after showing her slaying the group number..

Ashlee’s solo. I’m DEAD. When she put the crown on her head - I’m DEAD. 

Put her in the triangle with Bridget and I don’t even care who else.

Oh, and Maddie's solo. Cute and she has some good moves, but seriously? It was whatever to me. Yes, it was exactly the same as last year's, down to that awkward aerial cartwheel landing in a plie with elbows on knees trying to look krunk or something. The sweat stains in her pits were not sexy and neither were all those cutsey pageant faces she made throughout the whole thing. 

KRUNK 😄 Also the pit stains, I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me, ewww.

THIS. I thought VK was awful last year, annoying and immature, and suuuuuper soft and jiggly.  None of the choreographers or group leaders gave her a sticker. And she was cut for it! She looks like a DCC this season, and seems more mature.

Ok I know my Maddie defending is constant but...you can’t deny the girl is loved not only by the team and TBTB but the general public...her video has already over 10,000 views on Instagram ((and no that’s not just the Mormon community). I think she’s one of those people that has just an extra sparkle that people gravitate to. Her, Bridget...It’s something that can’t be taught. I can understand why the entire DCC seems slightly weirdly obsessed with her.

Some posters have been quoting Kitty and her "don't do &%$# you can't do" - that's the secret here.  Ashlee may not have the training, but she played on what she is good at, added a little sass, the right song and BOOM!

I'd make a slight correction.  Ashlee is a trained dancer, she just began her training later than most (like Nicole Hamilton). 

Somewhere way back last season I posted a prediction if Ashlee stuck with her approach and hard work ethic, she had all the makings of a rock star DCC.  I think she's definitely on her way.

EXACTLY. I also think that they needed to take the focus off of VK so they found a fall guy named Kat. K&J picked a few struggles for TC...not just Kat. IMO based on TRYOUTS they shouldnt of taken Gina, Alexandria or Kat (and I'm a Kat fan), however Kat almost lost me last night.

I swear I saw a piece of Kat's solo on Instagram a couple of weeks ago, and it wasn't as bad as what we saw in the episode.  She puts the cane down and picks up the pace.  I wish I could find the solo and post it here.  Agree that Kat has become the sacrificial lamb on the editing front to divert attention from VK.

Exactly.  AND even though it's a job, someone's boss/supervisor can't control what his/her employees do on their own free time.  I used to be a manager too, but did I have control over one of my employees going out partying?  No.  Because they're an adult.  

So Gina got little to no screen time or mention in the Finals eposode.  How could you not show at least part of the solo of the best dancer on the team?

Kat got into TC because of her look- she’s stunning. She also came with an excellent dance resume, according to Kelli. That’s probably why they put her through. It’ll be interesting to see how she does in TC, obviously she ultimately makes the team. 

She is my least favorite imo made the team bc her looks fit what they were looking for yes she’s gorgeous but she opens her mouth & it’s a no from me & what was up with her solo costume it looked like underwear, cheap underwear...

Kay got s bad edit. Cane is corny but she does have good technique and excellent extensions. The low kick comments are bullsugah as well. Her kicks are far better than several vets - including low kick Maddie who I am sick to death of enigma spoon fed no hose forced that she is amazing.
