Maybe we're all being too hard on VK. After all, it must be such a burden to be perfect in every way, always be right, and know more than everyone else around her. What an inconvenience for her to have to spend time among commoners like Jalyn, and then Jalyn has the nerve to talk?!?! To top it all off, she is deprived of milkshakes for weeks on end, and she went through such a rough time last year when her deception was aired on national television. Did I mention that she's only 19, and everyone on the planet should overlook bad behavior because of her tender age? (/endsarcasm).

Are there any other 18 or 19 year olds?  If so, I presume they will be permitted to engage in the same types of behavior, gain weight and make similar dancing mistakes. And have Kelli and Kitty leaping to their defenses demanding they get "respect".

If Kelli didn't like the edit that Victoria got last year, this year could be completely different. They may not show us anything negative about her, and we will see a false reality. 

Then they will have to edit her from every dancing sequence because falling out of turns and traveling into other dancers' space usually elicits a negative reaction. 🙂

Does anyone know if VK has ever danced as part of a group before? She seems to not have any spatial awareness so I’m wondering if she’s used to only dancing solo.

Although I laughed at the Kelli & Judy responses to TCC being cut, the more I watched I thought, this is cruel to make fun of them especially as some are years ago. I am surprised K said this was fine. This is something I might show to a few friends but not on a national cable channel.

I agree with you. I really feel for Malena in this video because we all know she didn’t handle it right, but why put this out there again. Things like this make me want to cancel my recording of the show. They talk about a sisterhood, yet the K & J act like mean girls with no regard to ones feeling.

I read on this site that she did not dance with her HS dance team, so maybe you are correct in this assessment.

That's not possible.  She doesn't make mistakes, so therefore you must be in HER space.  Stop it!  And don't tell her what to do!

DEFINITELY reserving any judgement on this issue until we see the episode with show group auditions. We’ll likely see the judges discussing her, and they may have issues with her look, etc. Kelli and Judy have long encouraged rookies to work with vets, so I definitely believe there are other factors going on.

More than likely, unless she did royally mess up at auditions, there will be nothing about Jalyn & show group. She will be just one among the many & not mentioned at all.

They pulled her into the office to talk to her about her lashes.  She had just had her rookie makeover so why were her lashes still a problem?  Oh yes, the better to bring up the fact that the DCC is sponsored by The Lash Lounge and that they have been called to deal with this 911 eyelash emergency🙄

If Kelli didn't like the edit that Victoria got last year, this year could be completely different.  They may not show us anything negative about her, and we will see a false reality.  Nothing would make Kelli happier than us not believing our insider info and feeling sorry for Victoria.  I'd be surprised if Kelli allowed her to look bad again.   I also wouldn't be surprised if other DCC get a bad edit to make VK look better.

Kelli is an executive producer on the show. There are no editing surprises, or her being dissatisfied with what story lines are shown. She has complete control over what gets shown on the show and what doesn’t.

The only way I could love this post anymore is if there was a way to insert violin music into it so we can get the full "poor Victoria" effect!

If she was ever on a team, she probably had them all kicked off before any performance.  Or maybe she just ate them.  IDK.

From the little research I have done, I haven't found any videos of Vikkie dancing with a group or team. I know she didn't try out for her high school teams, never did competitive cheer and all of her videos from competitions with her studio are solos. BUT, Vikkie did grow up going to intensives and conventions so she has danced around other people before and should have a better concept of spacing just based on her age. That said, she could have gone into the conventions like Miley Cyrus on a wrecking ball in order to knock out anyone else who would garner attention away from her.../shrug

That isn't a competitive piece which is what I was looking for---her, at a competition, with a team. This was more or less a recital for National Dance Day and for a senior level piece, beyond basic.

And she also fails to remain in her space through at least the chorus (which is when I tapped out from finishing the video). She breaks her line pretty early.

The editing on the show definitely made it seem Danielle had a hair fluffing obsession.  It looked like it was mainly due to the fact that she had that different style sort of like a comb over.  It was doing something not "natural" so she had to keep flopping it back over.  It appears in recent photos she finally gave in and parted in the middle.

But this could have been CMT editing like everything else that appears "real" on the show.

I noticed Savannah doing the same thing--constantly fluffing and flipping her hair because she's wearing a really deep part. Remembering that Danielle did it (and finding it really distracting, like, yes, your hair is gorgeous, but is there ever a moment you're not thinking about it or fiddling with it?), watching Savannah do it her rookie season actually made me wonder if that was a NY area thing. You know, in Texas the hair often is teased sky high, Jersey is known for its Snookie-style bouffant, and maybe some NYers like the impossibly deep part that does not stay in place on its own. Just having deep Sunday morning thoughts over here...

I am so curious about the training camp dynamic this year! I do think there often is a pretty high level of anxiety and fear for the TCCs each summer, knowing they can get cut at any moment for anything, but I am in agreement that there likely is a higher level of terror and possibly mistrust because of VK's return and candidates' uncertainty about how far TPTB will go to coddle her onto the team. I really hope most of the girls are able to shunt that stuff aside, put their best feet forward each night, and enjoy bonding with their fellow candidates. I also am so curious about the vet-rookie general dynamics. When I started watching this show, I loved that it focused so much on dance and we didn't have stupid drama like that one NBA dancer show (was it the Clippers?) where there was mad diva behavior that seemed so ridiculous I couldn't believe they let people like that stay on a team. However, now I want all the tea about everything! I believe there is a lot of sisterhood vibes and bestie love, but I want to know more lockerroom dirt!

[SmpIsimon]

Kitty is a pretty nasty person who many consider crazy.  In my opinion, she is only on the show because she makes for good TV given how outrageous she is.

Oxnard is in two weeks.  If we don’t know the front of the pyramid/triangle by then, we should have a strong indication based upon the performances there barring a Jenna-level misstep or injury.

What if the reason that they have not announced who point is, is because they plan on making VK point this year. 🤔

If VK goes, I’m going to cancel my DVR recording and I’ll just follow it here. I am disgusted that she actually made it back to TC this year with all the crap she pulled last year. She whines about not making show group, she gains 10 pounds, she is disrespectful to a staff member, her media interview answers consisted of “ I have no words”,  and she can’t dance in her own space. VK should never made SG this year for the mere fact she whined about not getting it last year. She needs to pay her dues first before getting that honor. Any other girl who pulled all the VK crap would never have been invited back to TC. Just look at Taylor T, she didn’t make it back and I bet it was because of her media problems regarding the Me Too movement. I bet Malena didn’t make it back due to her breakdown when she got cut. It seems like different rules for different girls.  I’m also betting this season they will only show the good and make it seem like she was the comeback kid.  So much for a world class organization. 😬

Wow 😮 if this is the case (because of VK) that’s disgusting. And bullshit 💩 It definitely hasn’t been earned. 

The entitlement of being the exception to the rule is toxic. I’ve worked for a similar woman for 22 years. It doesn’t get better that’s for damn sure.

I'd like to be kidding. 

I have a few sources from a few different angles and they don't always share the same info, this one seems to be similar across all channels which is when I start believing it. 

I want them to be wrong on this one though...I really, really do.

To to be honest, this post/ video IMO was not very professional.  We all know Malena  didn’t handle the cut well, but why rehash it. Did they stop to think how she might feel having this all over social media again? Have some compassion for the girl especially since she didn’t make it back. 

I’m late on this, but I 100% agree. It would be one thing if all of the videos were of girls who went on to make the team in a subsequent year like Madeline’s, but the rest just seems mean. I’m not suggesting that they shouldn’t be doing these little segments at all. I wouldn’t mind seeing more on other aspects of the process, but the bosses criticizing and laughing at girls’ reactions to being cut isn’t cute or funny to me...at all. 

ETA: I think I would feel differently if these were random fans who they caught up with commenting on it or Malena/Vivian looking back and laughing at themselves, but for the people who have all of the power to be doing it - just not my taste in terms of humor.

This is pure BS covered in 24k fools gold.  I'd ask if Kelli REALLY thinks we'd buy this crock of sh*t but she probably thinks we will and be happy about it.  After all, this is the woman who, in previous years, could care less about who the fans think should or should NOT be on the team but only started caring last year when people got vocal over Victoria's immaturity, lying, weight gain, and all her other less-than-stellar traits AND when Kelli herself got called out by many a fan over her preferential treatment of Victoria.  She also flipped fans the metaphorical "bird" when she brought Victoria back and gave her everything she didn't earn in either year.  I'm with Scorpio131.  I hope the "rookies" mentioned are the veterans who are new to Show Group and not the rookie candidates, though it's likely the rookie candidates as well because of a certain spoiled blonde.

And now I have the mental image of VK astride a wrecking ball, singing with her mouth cracked wide open & mascara running down her face! Only I think her lyrics would be "I took them out just like a wrecking ball!!"

They took rookie show group members to Oxnard Kelli Q. and Mandy’s rookie year. Not an exception for VK.
