I know where Inglewood is. I live in L.A. Anyway, I think it's time to stop hijacking this thread. Link to comment

Looks like they are sitting in the same section, but possibly took up more rows last year. Edited May 18, 2019 by sleepyjean 4 Link to comment

Christineelgene May 18, 2019 Share May 18, 2019 Scott, the weatherman, is still a judge. Neil McCoy is live on FB and they are under a tornado watch, so Scott is trying to calm them down. So glad he was not banished because of his truthful comments last year. 17 Link to comment

They do read this forum and I think they knew if they got rid of Scott (our hero), we'd storm the AT&T Stadium gates in response. So glad he's still around! I agree that VK is sucking in her stomach, but I do that when I'm being photographed so I can't be too hard on her. From what I was reading on here, or hints of it anyway, she was on a crash diet the last few months. I don't want her to fail. But if she is still flailing about, hasn't matured, and is saying "There are no words." then there is no reason to bring her back beyond promises to her Mommy and additional drama. 8 Link to comment

It can be something we never done before in the history of the show. Producers: Right. Something to grab the attention of the fans and viewers. You know our motto: money, fame, drama and ratings.

CrazyInAlabama May 18, 2019 Share May 18, 2019 The count I get from the rows in the stands is about 120. If there are 15 per row, and 8 rows, then it's a lot less than last year, and a ton less than from the first years where there were three or four times more 'applicants'. Of course, you have to subtract the ones that are just auditioning for their bucket list, or the ones who do this every year just for fun. I bet there aren't more than 60 real candidates, and a bunch of them won't pass the field and kick line tests, and have low kicks or flexibility. 4 Link to comment
hereforthedrama May 18, 2019 Share May 18, 2019 (edited) Looks like the clip with Malena on the DCC instastory also has Kristen and Madi in the back row. Also the audition numbers the girls wear look like they're going past the 200s? Edited May 18, 2019 by hereforthedrama Link to comment
loveaux May 18, 2019 Share May 18, 2019 from the clips that we’ve been getting i’m not all too impressed by the talent today 🥴 call me overly critical but whew. but i’m sure CMT will give us LOADS of perfect hair flips with perfectly timed music and closeups of Victoria’s gums while Kelli is crying again. 7 6 Link to comment

I do not think numbers matter to Kelli and Charlotte when it comes to certain girls they want in TC or on the squad. Link to comment

I think last year was about the same number of people auditioning and I was very impressed by the candidates. I'm curious to see how the ones who got cut from TC last year do this year. If Malena, Kristin, and VK all make it back to TC, it'll be like last season all over again. 2 Link to comment
