A lasso? Yikes! I once had to learn how to use one when doing the musical "Will Rogers Follies" and using that thing combined with dance moves is not easy or fun. Most of us chorus girls got mean cases of rope burn & one time our Will was nearly strangled when one of the girls was practicing a trick involving a spin & her aim was so off it landed around his neck. Somehow a lot of cheerleaders twirling lassos in close quarters sounds like a disaster.

I don't think they'll be using actual lassos -- that would be a disaster. I'm sure they're just mimicking the lasso motion with their arms.

The updated choreography includes a dance move that mimics using a lasso.

Also I suggested live tweeting for the episode because if it is on Twitter it is a more neutral area where spoilers are allowed.  How you you do a live chat here with no spoilers?  “Wow did you see that? How about ______ falling? What excuse could she give about what she said?”

I'm pretty sure once it's aired on the East coast, it's no longer a spoiler. There's no way the East coast (and Central & Mountain) can live post without spoilers unless they tape it and then watch it West coast time (which could mean midnight or later for many).

I *THINK* a spoiler would be considered something like saying, "oh, so-and-so gets cut this episode" before it has happened or before they announce show group, talk about who made it and who didn't. But once it airs, it's fair game to talk about.

@hannahbanana has it right. 

The live chat is only open during the original Eastern time zone airing.

Is it me or does TCC Taylor look a little like former DCC Kelli (recent retiree)?

They cut Victoria 2 nights before the last night. Malena and Lily were cut on the last night of training camp. 

If I recall correctly, the night that Victoria and Tara were cut was the last scheduled night of Training Camp, but Kelli couldn't get her act together to cut four more girls before that night.  I think one of the insiders also said that Kelli was trying to talk Charlotte into expanding the squad to 40 that year so she could keep Victoria and Malena.  If that's the case, then Kelli might have kept them around as long as she did in the hopes she'd get the answer she wanted, but she didn't.  I also don't believe Charlotte would have left it to the last minute to say yes or no so I think Charlotte had already given her answer, but Kelli didn't want to hear it until she had no other choice BUT to take it.

I’m going off of what was said by K & J in the “Making The Team Moments” video that was just posted from the DCC Making The Team account, haha. 

I forgot to include the post asking why Kristin and Lily got cut, but I'm responding to that question:

Kristin was cut last year because she was an inconsistent performer who often looked sleepy and therefore low-energy. They kept telling her she needed to find her "wow factor" and she didn't understand what they meant or how to do it.

Lily was cut mainly, it seems to me, because they had to cut somebody to get down to 36, but I think of the TCCs left, I agreed with that cut. I often thought she held her head or posture a bit awkwardly, she didn't always realize she was making mistakes, and sometimes was off beat. So, she was the weakest of the strongest 37 left. I say 37, because she was heads and shoulders above Malena, who really should have been gone weeks earlier IMO. I was fine with both cuts last season, but as I posted earlier, since they've both made it this far into their 2nd TC, I'm hoping for their sakes they aren't among the last 3 ladies cut from camp.

So, if episode 3 is playing (I'm central time zone), and we are all giving someone grief as it plays, and some of us "know" this person gets cut that episode, can we say "no wonder she got cut" before Shelli says "you're out of here?"

Kristen told them she was exhausted from working all day and then trying to find time to practice.  So as her reward for holding down a full time job she  was cut.  Well that was catty to say but I felt bad for her.

Perhaps message @sleepyjean ?  She's definitely one of the board's super sleuths.

Nope.  Until it happens on screen in the episode, it's a spoiler.

You forgot to mention, she’s also totally boring!  and her eyelashes make it impossible for her to open her eyes.

ive never disliked a TCC so much.

Just saw the commercial again for MTT with the "watch thousands of hopefuls audition for the chance of a lifetime" comment. Whoever wrote that has taken one too many high-kicks to the head. Thousands, people, thousands. . 

Yes, but at least 100 of them are the returning vets, cause this year features the highest number of returning vets!!!!

I wish they would have shown them calling her out for weight on the show. Her last year was when several vets were "soft" and yet they didn't talk to anyone about weight that season that we saw. So annoying IMO.

Speaking of being soft, in the earlier seasons Kelli seems much more of a hardA than she has in recent years. 

I originally thought it was because she was going through menopause and had become more emotional....i.e. her eyes filling up with tears in some cuts, not saying things so harshly, etc...though now that I think about it, I’m thinking more along the lines of editing. Or even perhaps she finally realized how cruel she looked in previous seasons & that may have scared some hopefuls away. Or maybe it’s something else entirely. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I'm glad they don't. It's not something I'm sure they want to relive on television over and over again. I'm sure if WE see it, TPTB certainly do..no need to need to see them criticize them publicly about it IMO

I just think it's not really drilled on television nowadays for sensitivity issues.

Love Melissa mocking the ones who do the "sexy" faces.  Holly P was the worst offender!

I disagree, Holly certainly loved a smug 'I know what I'm doing' face and used it to great effect but she didn't do those open mouth 'fake moan' faces or fish lips like Melissa was demonstrating.

Also has Melissa had more work done? Her mouth is moving in a stiff manner.

I recall seeing it quite often...she still does it from what I've seen  One of the best times that "I'm sooo sexayyyy" face was on full display was the year she was cut during her solo, followed by her top coming right off.  Not that kind of entertainer indeed LOL!

JenK’s last year on the squad, she looked like she had gained weight. Going off memory here, but the scene where the vets are learning the audition piece, I remember noticing it. There was an angle where you can only see her leg or torso and I rewound/fastforwarded to figure out who it was. That shot made her look awful. Then the following year when she filled in consistently as an all star, she was certainly bigger than the other girls.

On the subject of TCC Kristen, I got the feeling last year that Kelli really wanted her on the team since she can sign, which would definitely be a great thing for the organization and I’m sure they would take advantage of. If she makes the team I feel like we’ll eventually see her doing more high-profile things like signing the national anthem at games, right? I don’t think DCC would miss the opportunity to highlight the fact that they have a cheerleader who can sign and make them look like a more inclusive organization. (Obviously it WOULD be a great thing in general but I’m not under any delusion that TPTB wouldn’t be aware of the great PR 😂) Do you think Kristen would be paid extra for things like that? I hope that she would be!

Holly was never “cut during her solo”. She lost her top for a second though

Who is this Charm person?

She is a choreographer for some big names.  I believe she choreographed the Meagan Trainor (sp) half time Show last year where Kash, Maddie and Rachel W were included with the dancers.  Here is a link that gives you more info.

I think you misinterpreted the phrases in that sentence. I read it as:

"I'm sooo sexayyyy" face was on full display during her solo, followed by her top coming right off, the year she was cut.
