unknownuser July 24, 2019 Share July 24, 2019 if we are looking at the the girls in front as point contenders than I would say Heather is the clear stand out from that performance. Amy was off and made errors. Tess didn't stand out. Maddie as ok dancing but her posture drives me nuts when she is standing or walking. How did she get through years of dance training with shoulders rolled like that without an instructor correcting it? In a couple of pictures with other vets, she posture makes her look short and wide and she has a great figure. just my two cents. 4 Link to comment
Fwcowboysfan July 24, 2019 Share July 24, 2019 What a cool experience for the DCC!!! I’m sure they had the best time. I thought they looked great but Amy’s mess up was pretty 😬. The audience was probably having a great time didn’t even notice though. Maddie is a favorite of mine and I definitely hope she is point. I thought she looked great. 6 Link to comment

Agree that it was a cool experience for DCC & the audience...& even Queen. Love Maddie too for point. Heather looked good too last night when she switched out with Amy. Amy was fine. There is really not one stand out this year for me. Bridget is not ready for point, in my opinion. 7 Link to comment

I realize that they should always be ready to perform, but since it was a one time only performance, and like you said a rock show - I think they just had fun. I don't think they cared where they were on that stage, especially the non-SG members who rarely get to do something like this. 5 Link to comment

Txmomof2 July 24, 2019 Share July 24, 2019 I have to say, Kelcy looks good as a brunette, she stands out more than when she was blond. Also, there is a small snippet where you see Caroline dancing on Instastories. A few girls posted it for those that wanted to see. I absolutely think they were strategic in where they placed everyone and I think it's interesting that Gina was behind Rachel. Our of the 4 senior girls I'd like to see Heather, but I would love to see some of the 2nd year girls up there too. As much as I hate to say it because I'm pulling for her I'm afraid Lily being in that group isn't good. She seems like such a sweet supportive girl and worked hard taking classes all year. 1 Link to comment

Bellisima08 July 24, 2019 Share July 24, 2019 On 7/23/2019 at 10:29 AM, Jennv said: For me it was when she turned to Jinelle , shooting daggers with her eyes, and said “ I just know that you’ve never had a weight problem “ it was said with such venom, and dare I say it, hatred. Exactly! It was very snarky and rather passive aggressive. In looking back at the episode when Kelli first told VK that she was pairing her with Jinelle to help her, you can almost see VK thinking "oh hell no, they are not putting me with this skinny bitch!" If VK had been smart she would have looked at the situation like "ok, Jinelle probably knows what she's doing heath-wise because she's always been fit so I should listen to her", but instead she choose to have the attitude of "She's never had issues with her weight so there's nothing I want to hear from her." 13 Link to comment
Bellisima08 July 24, 2019 Share July 24, 2019 22 hours ago, M1977G said: @Bellisima08, your comment and thinking about this has me wondering how or if they will address Shaina and the tragic plane crash. I'm not sure which is appropriate. Certainly, they should not exploit such tragedy for TV, but I also wonder if disregarding it altogether would feel (to Shaina) like they're minimizing the tragedy and not caring how it affected her in camp. Thoughts? @M1977G I've been wondering about that as well. I've been trying to recall if there was ever another instance of one of the Rookies or even a Vet experiencing a personal loss while in training camp, but I can't think of one. Given how close Shaina was to those who died, I'm sure there were instances of her emotions getting to her. She probably could make the request to not have it be focused on, but if CMT wants to show it she may not be able to prevent it. I would hope that Kelli & Judy would try to lessen any scrutiny on her as they must know how hard it must be for her to be going through the loss of her friends. I wonder if she was able to go to the funerals. 1 Link to comment
LynneH July 24, 2019 Share July 24, 2019 I only watched the Queen video one time and unfortunately all i came away with was: Hannah needs a larger pair of shorts and Jalyn (I think it was her) at the end appeared like she had some sort of tic *L* just kidding, her head movements were very noticeable since she was the only one moving her head about. Otherwise I think they did fine. Didn't even notice Amy's mistake that people were referring to. So I guess I'd have to watch it again. 1 4 Link to comment

Bellisima08 July 25, 2019 Share July 25, 2019 (edited) One thing I'm going to be watching very closely this year is how guest choreographers react to VK and how CMT presents those reactions. I was rewatching the episode from last year where they had Denise Dicharry come in just after show group auditions and I found it very interesting that they didn't actually show her making her comments to Kelli about VK not drawing her attention while VK was dancing. It was very different to when Travis Wall was praising VK & they showed him leaning over to tell Kelli while she danced. It felt like they were trying to minimize our perception of Denise's critique. I will say that the talk in Kelli's office with VK about what Denise thought of her performance that night was another really awkward moment to watch. I mean here is Denise trying to give an honest assessment of what is lacking in VK's dancing & Kelli was trying to brush it off by saying if was just one off night (when we all know VK had been having issues with her dancing all though training camp). I mean yeah, I'm sure not making show group was weighing on her mind that night & impacted her ability to focus, but it doesn't account for her poor performance on other days that other people noticed. Also I was just really turned off by her reaction to what Denise said. I mean she turned on those tears so quick & then way she just laid her head on Kelli's desk was so unprofessional. I mean you've got this top dance instructor/choreographer assessing you at what is essentially a job interview & you put your head on the desk of your potential boss & cry about how you're shocked you didn't get a straight pass to show group? She was just so clueless & immature & I was glad that Denise mentioned her lack of maturity. Edited July 25, 2019 by Bellisima08 21 Link to comment

M1977G July 25, 2019 Share July 25, 2019 I'm sure if I got to perform with Queen, I'd think it was one of the best nights of my life, too! Now that I've seen better footage of the performance, I have a better idea of the formations. Guess the first one I saw was from the audience and was a limited single angle. Despite the painfully slowwwww tempo, I thought they looked pretty great. It's like other stadium performances--most folks just see in sync arm and pom stuff and the hair flips, so even though the choreography was nothing new to our eyes, I bet it looked solid from just about every seat in the house. So many of the girls got some good camera time! I loved seeing Hannah and Cici so much and felt like, wow, I could go for a Hannah-Cici-Ashlee triangle down the road. Those three together were pretty prominent because they framed Adam and they looked great together. Hannah's shorts are short, but her ass looked awesome in them. I thought Bridget, Rachel W, Heather, Lexi, Gina, Tess, Amber, and Daphne rocked it, too. I literally never looked at Maddie. She didn't draw my eye a single time after initially spotting her, and I've watched this like five times already. I hope we get to see some of this on the show! Seems like a pretty big thing to cover during training camp, especially because the rookies came to watch. I think it's really nice and fun that they brought the TCCs, too. 13 Link to comment

Kashara was too sloppy for my taste to be point, but she was never flat in her dancing. I would hope K&J would pick someone for point who could dial it up and keep it dialed up every time.
