Didn't VK tell them this was the reason for the weight gain? If she didn't - how would they know? Wasn't Janelle tasked to assist by Kelli, et al.?  I doubt she would meddle in VK's affairs if she hadn't been asked to. 

If you call in sick at work and are asked to provide a "sick" note - and you don't - doesn't that normally incur some consequence?

Being overweight is not the same thing as calling off sick - and a doctors note for not being able to come to work is way different than an explanation for weight gain. 

I love how people are so willing to have VKs privacy about something as personal as her weight gain completely invaded and investigated by Jinelle and the DCC.   What next, hidden cameras following her around watching what she eats? 

And even if she did get a note that she had a medical excuse for gaining 13 pounds (or whatever it was) then what???  Were they gonna let her on the squad?  No.  It’s really none of their business why she gained that weight - if she was too fat they just needed to cut her - which they did.   They were out of line and probably realized it and that’s why it’s water under the bridge.

I don't think Kashara chose Caroline.  I think she threw out Caroline's name and they very choppily edited it in to make it seem like Caroline was the choice so that we'd all be shocked when it turned out to be Amy.

I thought Kelli said Denise was "back", so I assumed she returned for another session after she taught the SG routine.

IMO, she picked Caroline for point. It was a direct response to Kelli's question on who she would pick for point.

The cheerleaders may be required by contract to use team doctors for all health concerns. It’s a common requirement in pro sports. It eliminates the risk of athlete misrepresenting an illness or injury, because they want to keep playing even if they shouldn’t. If they signed a contract like that VK would have been required to see a team doctor about her sudden weight gain of told to by an t am employee..

Because weight is so important, and because a woman under pressure to lose a large amount of weigh in a short time, they are an interest in her doing it in a healthy way. The recent episode with Bridget illustrates that.

Jinelle probably had the legal authority to contact the doctor and make sure JK was getting he care required. When she found our she hadn’t, it was her obligation to tell her superiors. It doesn’t matter if she lied VK or not, it was part of her job. It’s a sign of maturity that she did, not a sign of ratting someone out. 

I really doubt Jinelle had legal access to anything related to VK and her medical records or her weight.   That would be huge unnecessary invasion of her privacy.

From Kelli's standpoint, she was trying to help Victoria address the weight gain. Because Victoria said it was from her thyroid problem, Kelli offered the doctors visit. 

However at the time I do recall feeling bad for Victoria and could completely understand why she would not want Jinelle appointed to follow her "condition." I empathized with Victoria in that regard and understand why an embarrassed 18 year old backed out of the situation.

Now the problem is that she handled the backing out unprofessionally and immaturely. Without favoritism in place, it's something Kelli may not have forgiven ever. When Brittany D'Alsandro was eight minutes late for a uniform fitting- she was cut and did not make it back to TCC the next year. Bottom line - yes Victoria is back and improved -- but yes - she benefits from favoritism - as do many.

Agreed, it's a HIPPA violation to divulge that type of information. However, as previously stated there may have been some sort of waiver in place as VK was part of the organization at the time.

Isn't part of this whole scenario - that VK gave the reason for her weight gain as a medical one? Janelle did not take it upon herself to get involved in this matter. She was instructed to - by her superiors.  

Isn't is "illegal" to reprimand someone for an issue with work performance if it is due to a medical reason? Where did this whole "thyroid" issue come up if if VK had not volunteered it?

I think if VK volunteered the information that she had a medical condition that was causing detriment to her work performance (weight gain) then her employers have a "right" to verify the actual condition?

That would be great to see. There is a thunderstruck video on the DCC Facebook page. It's hard to make out who everyone is. I was interested too because there is something wonky about one of the sides. It's seems to be all tall and blonde and then they stuck two short brunettes on the end -- I think Lisa and Brianna. It looks unbalanced.

So Jinelle called up a doctors office and asked if VK showed up, and the doctors office told her yes or no?   I don’t think that’s even legal actually - unless she’s VK’s guardian.   Like employers really don’t have the right to dictate/manage things like their employees going to doctors except for a situation like worker’s comp/injury on the job or them being cleared to dance/work.   Whether or not VK has a medical issue causing her to gain weight or not is none of their business and the whole situation was completely inappropriate and boundaries were overstepped.  That could be a another reason they aren’t holding it against her.   If she was too heavy she deserved to be cut and she was - the reason was inconsequential.

I don’t know.  More like she’s over a decade older than VK and isn’t going to see herself as part of her “peer group” like someone similar in age would see themselves as more of a peer leader role. 

If I DNA a doctor's appt they call my house. it may even have been arranged through the DCC, is there doctor's coverage? in which case the doc's may well call to say 'hey, even though x didn't attend the appt, you're provider is still being charged for the appt'

I didn’t realize Victoria mentioned a medical issue. Many meds including bcp’s can cause a sudden weight gain. Stuff many of us women don’t want to share on television.

It's a jerk move because he's not "picking on someone his own size." He'd say that to a cheerleader, maybe one of the photographers, but he wouldn't get in a Cowboys player's face and say that. Punk move.

I wouldn't put it past any footballer to say something like that to any other. Every hockey player i know has always gotten in the face of the opposition and whooped about something or other. has nothing to do with Maddie's size. likely just because she happened to be the person there.

Jinelle that sneaky snake lol. I'm sure she was only doing what they/Kelli told her to do, so blame them. They wanted her to help Victoria and she tried but she didn't want it. I get if Jinelle was annoyed that VK just ignored her. She told her if she didn't want her help she should have just told her. Which I think would have been the right thing to do instead of ignoring texts and calls, and wasting Jinelle's time. Who knows what happened with the doctor thing. It was never mentioned on the show right? Just that VK didn't end up getting with Jinelle like they wanted her to?

I agree. I feel frustrated for her because she is so young and, as she said, got a lot of negative feedback for her actions. Words hurt and I am sure she got shredded. On the bright side, she has so much time to grow. I saw her last season like someone else said just quirky and goofy. In many ways, she reminded me of an annoying little sister that just blurts out stuff that she shouldn’t. I am happy she made the team and hope to watch her transition into the role of great teammate and cheerleader. 

[Sagwa5]

Yeah I know. I just picked the one I found the most pictures of.

Not much difference, as you can see, but I just had to do my version because Gina and Heather were robbed so horribly (also because Tess looks so out of place and also Erin in fornt of tiny Briana)!

Flippy flop Amy and heather and I would be okay with this one too. 

Why Amy (and Maddie) aren’t getting the Jinelle treatment is beyond my comprehension. I get that Maddie is a fan favorite, but she lacks sparkle and is constantly on weight watch. Amy is a solid soldier but timing is often off and she’s cute. Put her in Jinelle’s old spot or where Lexi or Ashlee are in the graph above to help her with timing.

I think it's a bit much to say Jinelle was 'prying around' or 'forcing her' and 'checking up on and investigating'.  We actually don't know the process of Jinelle finding out that VK just skipped out on a doctor's appt (which is unacceptable anyway,r egardless of who or how an appt is made, wasting a doctor's office time like that is not acceptable and where i live has you discharged immediately) who rang who etc.  Jinelle clearly didn't force her to go because VK didn't go. Jinelle wasn't 'prying', she was told by her boss to go to another employee and seek out assitance for that employee. VK was an employee of the DCC at that time. your boss wants you to go to the doc and it's your dream to be a DCC blah blah blah, you go. you take up any opportunity and lifeline given to you to get your dream. all it would take would be going to auntie kelli and saying its embarraassing that it' my weight etc etc. BUT at the same time, it was embarrassing for Holly when she was being told she was too stocky for the team at the same age. it was embarrassing for every other 18 year old that was being told she was 'too fat'. VK isn't special in tht regard, but she did think herelf so sepcial that she didn't have to take the opportunities given to her - ones above and beyond what we've seen girls get before. 

Like it or not, body and weight is part of the DCC. unrealistic or not it's part of the DCC. someone like VK knows that better than anyone.

I was shocked Gina wasn't in contention (seemingly) for point. I wasn't a fan of her during her TCC time - brilliant dancer, arrogant AF (or at least made to appear that way in her edit or perhaps a mix of both) but she's really improved - either she's softened or she's more relaxed now and more of her personallity has come through, but she really is fun to watch.  No disrespect to Amy but she wasn't even on my long list for point. i've nothing against ehr, but i think in a way that's worse - to me she's the definition of a blender.  she's cute but not stunning, good to watch but not amazing, sweet but kinda bland.  

I know Im likely in the minority but I love KaShara. was she necessarily the best dancer? no, but damn she was a lot of fun to watch because her joy in dancing, in performing was so obvious. she didn't have the contrived 'sexy smile face' of so many DCC, she *genuinely* seemed to be having a ball and wanted the people watching to have a great time to.  Amy doesn't have that.  She doesn't have the gravitas the point needs - either as a lead dancer or a leader.  It feels like something she got on senority, not ability or suitability.

Maybe she didn’t feel like telling Jinelle, this woman who she barely knows who isn’t even close to her age and from a different country, her private matters, and was evasive because it was something sensitive.    Then next thing you know she’s getting these appointments scheduled for her and being texted constantly and finally ends up Kelli’s office being interrogated about it.

Ok. It’s fun to speculate and all but I saw nothing in the episode that remotely supports Jinelle specifically “prying,” “force(ing),” or any other type of nefarious behavior. In fact she’s probably the last person around that place I could’ve imagined acting that way. All we saw was a carefully edited scene that left out a lot of details and subsequently a lot of questions hanging in the air.

I don’t think playing Secret Agent in Charge on Project ‘Beautiful Storm’ was ever something Jinelle wanted to do. I’m thinking J couldn’t wait to get a thousand miles away from that whole dumpster-fire assignment of ‘helping’ VK.

Well the appointment was made for a reason. She had to have told her or someone that the reason she was gaining weight might have been from a medical issue. Otherwise why would it be made in the first place? If she was just gaining weight from not working out enough outside of practice or eating bad, she wouldn't need a doctor right? So that is on her if she said it was a medical issue. She let them know her business! Like I said she could have just told Jinelle or Kelli even that she didn't want help from her, and she would try another way. Ignoring her and wasting her time isn't right if that's what she did. They set her up with Jinelle and expected her to get with her but she didn't so then she got in trouble. No big deal. Ha

I agree with this and said so at the time. I would have hated having Jinelle as a little "bird on my shoulder." I get that Kelli thought she was helping but as a person who struggles with weight, I would declined Jinelle's help right then and there.  Wasn't the main issue  - that Victoria didn't communicate her desire to address the weight issue on her own? Instead, she just ignored and/or avoided Jinelle. Honestly I need to rewatch because I remember thyroid and that's not from the TV - it's from this forum! HAHA!

1.   This thyroid stuff was never confirmed on the show - I honestly think that was just a made up “what if” on this board that turned into a thing when it really wasn’t, and 2.

Even if she did tell Jinelle that, no, the DCC does not have a right to verify it IMO - that’s 100% prying.  Her medical issues for weight gain are her personal business and not theirs.  They can advise she go to a doctor, but can’t force her and certainly shouldn’t be calling and trying to figure out if she went and what the diagnoses was.

Whatever the reason was for a her weight gain, she wasn’t going to make the squad that heavy.  What is she gonna do?  Dance w/ a doctors excuse on her belly for the fans to see and think “oh it’s all okay this one is fat, she’s got a medical reason”.

Thank you! That looks right.

Insiders said thyroid.  Because those of us with a thyroid condition went crazy:)

And honestly, if it had been thyroid, the best thing for her was to have it diagnosed ASAP to start treatment.  I say that cause it can take forever to figure out dosage/treatment, etc cause everyone is so different.

I can see Kelli, being so close to her and wanting to help, thinking that having Jinelle work with her was a good idea.  A female and former DCC, instead of sending her to Jay like she did with girls in the past.  Either way, gaining the weight that fast was not healthy and VK needed help, whether from Jinelle or someone else.  Jinelle was in the building so to speak.  I still think she needed outside help from someone who was outside the situation, but it worked out in the end.  She lost the weight and seems to be maintaining it - hopefully in healthy way that will continue.

I thought word was that Jinelle made an appointment for Victoria & the doctor let Jinelle know that Vic didn't show up.  IIRC, all they showed on the show was Victoria saying she didn't want help from someone who never had a weight problem.

This topic will be closed until we can get animal control to take away the dead horse you keep beating.

This topic will be unlocked later today, with the understanding that the forum rules must be followed.  Namely, STOP TALKING ABOUT EACH OTHER and STAY ON TOPIC. 

This is a topic for general spoilers, not a free-for-all to discuss anything you feel like talking about or regurgitating garbage from past seasons which should be discussed in.. wait for it... the Past Seasons topic. 

Since your mods don't like punishing everyone for a few bad apples, anyone who can't follow these rules will lose their posting privileges entirely.
