Popular Post DAthene July 5, 2019 Popular Post Share July 5, 2019 I don’t think she was really called out last year. Kelli was exceptionally deferential when discussing her weight when other girls were spoken to much more bluntly. There was clearly a whole lot NOT included in the final edit for that second meeting with Jinelle. The part of the weight think that gets me is that TK jumped in first when they had the alumni practice the season before calling out Tasha and Stephanie about their weight. She suddenly went blind when looking at her own daughter? Every year Kelli has a favorite that she keeps until there is nowhere to go but out. She does try to give some every chance. But those 11 pounds SHOWED on VK. it wasn’t just a “thick”, it was very apparent. Last year Tara lost weight...Judy even commented how good she looked in the cameo shoot... and was improving according to feedback, but then was cut because guest judges said she wasn’t being noticed. Aside from Travis, neither was VK. Because if they liked her, we would have heard the compliments on air Add to that, she is called in to have a special meeting with Denise? why? So that the choreographer can see the real VK? What other TC or vet for that matter ever got that special treatment but what solidified it for me...and this is why I believe those who cite a toxic lack of morale behind the scenes, was watching KShara putting her last sticker on Lily She was clearly so nervous and so careful in choosing her words and so uncomfortable being honest that I actually said in that moment out loud that she would be retiring if she knew VK was coming back When she put up that last sticker, she was actually bracing herself. You can see it in her body language I claim so special insight or knowledge...l just my 2 cents (and probably its worth much less) 1 32 Link to comment

You can see it in her body language Kashara wasn't afraid, though, to say something about Vic's behavior. Maybe she was nervous about the sticker because she really was torn about who to give the last one to. Of course I'm also not one who thinks body language is useful at all, so take me with a big ol' grain of salt LOL. 11 Link to comment

I thought the question was asked/discussed here last year and a poster said Sunni Cranfill made SG in season 3 but was cut in TC. I don't know if that's true or not. However Sunni did come back and made the team in season 4 (I don't think she was in SG). Posters on FB seem to get mixed up about things often. Taylor didn’t make SG last year or at least it wasn’t shown on the show if she did. They did talk with Amber because they had concerns she had made SG and but they didn’t feel completely comfortable about sending her out after how she did. I believe Amber did stay on SG. 1 Link to comment

Or even Breelan, whether she was Kelli's pick or Melissa's, and you know she really isn't doing well.

Kash was in uniform in Studio City with the All-Stars so I believe the choice was hers' not be on the AS team. Also, Shelly B said "there were reasons for the members being picked" or something to that effect which leads me to believe there's something up.

TUOwl84 July 6, 2019 Share July 6, 2019 I was thinking today...

I never see photos or insta stories with these girls posted in them. I find that odd.

Yeah, Keyra has some pictures with Cersten on her page now, and Jenna/Erica, Danielle/Jasmine/Alex H seem to still be close friends. I think Caila also seems to stay in touch with a few (and I'm sure others as well that I can't think of offhand). I'm sure when one is a DCC and the other has been cut, there are not only time constraints, but I bet it's a bit awkward as well. On a related now, were Tara and Savannah actually really close friends or was it more of a storyline for the show? I really can't remember the backstory on them. (I'm not at all suggesting that they secretly disliked each other or anything like that, but they have been casual friends, and the show built it up to be more for the 'story'). The news about the helicopter crash is awful. Hopefully, Shaina gets the support that she needs during this time. 7 Link to comment

Bellisima08 July 6, 2019 Share July 6, 2019 Hi all, Long time lurker, first time posting. Just wanted to let you know that I saw some interesting exchanges on Twitter that seem to confirm that the whole "Protect/promote Victoria" edict is in full swing. I was on CMT's official Twitter page for making the team and there was someone who works in production on Making the Team that was taking on people who were daring to question Victoria's placement on the team. This person was using a lot of the buzzwords that we've been hearing coming out of those affiliated with training camp like "she's been through a lot, she's changed, oh she's only 19, ect." He was just really making the effort to defend her even after someone called him out by saying he wasn't exactly being objective if he did in fact work on the show that has an interest in towing DCC's company line when it comes to Victoria. I tried to get pics of the conversation, but when I signed back on, the tweets were gone so he either deleted them or the person he was tweeting to set their page to private. He seems to be legit because he has a Linkedin profile that lists him as a story producer for last year as well as this year, but that's even more troubling because he should not be getting into it with fans. Anyway, it was interesting to see the Victoria propaganda machine up and running. The guy's Twitter handle is @stalkme69 (seriously) if anyone wants to watch him jump to defend her. As upsetting as it is to see Victoria being pushed forward, it was rather funny watching how he worked to spin things in her favor.

Supposedly, the comments were likely less than flattering (and probably said out of stress, being upset, frustrated or something similar) though the reason for her cut was being distracted/not performing as a vet/weight/etc. I don't know of any specific page, but someone with a better memory might be able to explain it more clearly than I. 5 Link to comment

EricaShadows July 6, 2019 Share July 6, 2019 I feel horrible for Shaina and hope that she has the support she needs to help her through this, both now and in the future. Even if she wasn't best friends with them, they were people she knew and it's always devastating to know that some of the people around you were killed, especially when they had JUST graduated from school. I also hope that she uses Training Camp as a way to help her work through some of the issues that may arise and, if not a distraction, at least a way to focus on something outside of herself so she doesn't drown in the the emotions (especially if she knew the girls well). If Kelli and TPTB use ANY sort of excuse as that Shaina seems "distracted", "less invested in Training Camp", "reserved" or anything else that could be attributed to this issue as a reason to cut her (or even saying outright that she should be cut to allow her time to heal and come back next year), then they should be slapped upside the head among other things. Dealing with the fact that at least three girls you knew were killed is by far more traumatic than constantly being reminded that someone was an immature brat who gained weight and lied her way through Training Camp last year. 13 Link to comment

Maybe K&J will sit her down and say "We will not tolerate that kind of behavior again and we don't care who your mother is- you will not tarnish our brand" kind of thing. I'm willing to give the show/TPTB the benefit of the doubt that something like this will happen. I personally think (even if it's scripted) this would go a long way with viewers who are fed up with the favoritism bull. But in the end, it's their brand. Their circus. But seriously- if you want drama CMT, make it happen. One little preview of what appears to be VK getting her ass chewed, and ya might just see a jump in ratings... That conversation never happened.

I don’t expect her to make final 36 this year. She will never make show group again no matter what she does. 1 2 Link to comment

NMDD43 July 6, 2019 Share July 6, 2019 I may be remembering this wrong, but was it posted on here that MTT has a new production team this year? Just thinking out loud here, but if so, I wonder if K & C cleaned house because of the narrative the producers created last season (ie. showing the footage of VK being an ass and all the favoritism from Kelli and co. versus not showing any of it). I always had the feeling last year that the producers went a little rogue bc of some of what they aired. Or maybe they missed the memo (or just didnt care?) that they were to only represent VK in a positive light but instead zoomed in on her jiggly belly and runny mascara. They could have literally featured anything or anyone else but chose to air VK's awkward and immature office visits,commentary, etc. Basically what I'm saying is that they didn't feature her or TPTB in an ideal way and maybe that pissed K off enough to hire a new production team? I don't know. Kelli seems petty enough to go to such drastic lengths to protect her Kalina spawn. Also, I always thought John Gault was part of the production team. He only showed up for the summer (filming) and then abruptly disappeared pretty much once TC wrapped. Maybe they got wind of it, didn't appreciate the leaks, then brought in new people for this year. Could partially explain why this summer has been so annoyingly quiet. 1 5 Link to comment
