2019 Auditions, Finals, and Training Camp Spoilers

[dccfan204]

Who do you think the last cut will be?

I personally don’t see them cutting any of the showgroup girls, or Kat or Chandi based on their edits so far.

Useful = Lisa

Laugh = Taylor P

Surprise = Kristin

Sad = Lily

Like = Meredith

Y’all I need a come to Jesus moment about how much this one person I’ve met like once two years ago and don’t even know irritates me so bad.

I'll need to join you.  I haven't even met the girl and used to champion her on this forum.

Didn’t Lexie just make Show Group? Whereas Gina has been on SG since she was a rookie? Make it make sense!

She was on show group last year as well.  (Lexie)

A few DCCs wore pigtails in the 70s and 80s.  It was cute at the time.  It would be weird now.

Would be a little too Lolita, ha!

She definitely looks better. But I still say lots of Photoshop was in play.  If you know the program, you know what it can do.

Thanks for this!  Just wanted to see the difference between 2 years ago and now.  I think she’s 21 or 22, but she looks much more grown up and has more of a natural look then others do.

Are there any videos out there of Lisa Mills dancing before DCC?

[SmpIsimon]

From what I've been told, there is no practice tonight.

I’m remembering back to one of the very first MTT seasons where the vets were grumbling that they weren’t in better positions (I can’t remember if it was the triangle or in the sideline formations), and they got chewed out by Judy and Kelli that their seniority didn’t buy them a good spot.  Am I remembering that correctly?  

The 2 hour special - K&J were chewing out the vets cause they had asked who was going to dance up front or on the 50 yard line - something like that.  I remember Brandi Nace and Whitney Ott in that scene.

Not that I have anything planned with such information, but where can I find that handy list of all TCCs including the returning vets?

DCC Dance Standards or in some cases beyond DCC Dance Standards for me:

Sasha Agent, Evan Anderson, Crystal T., Michelle Keys, Kashara, Gina, Melissa (not kellerman), Holly, Cersten, Erica, Ashton T, Nicole Hamilton, Olivia Renee, Carisa Rose, Jacie S, Samantha, Hannah (both Hannah's) and Paige.

That's all I can think of off the top of my head. 

I'd add Amy Trader and Megan C. Most of these women are far too technical for pom dancing. They should be pro jazz/lyrical dancers somewhere, not on a field in Texas.

@Squeek has a comprehensive list but this should get you started.  A photo of all the girls taken into TC (vets and rookies together) plus the latest rookie TC grid of who is left in TC.  Pink outlined girls made show group.

Meredith looks similar to Kelcey (Kelsey)?  The black-brown hair and ice blue eyes.  No wonder Kellie is so enamored with her.

I appreciate you and have for years on these forums (formerly DCCFan71) so I have been around a long time and you have never posted anything that was not true. So, please keep posting.

Do you think the team has already been announced/decided and that's why they are not practicing?

I'm thinking no, that it'll probably be tomorrow now -- but that's just a guess.  I don't know for sure, sorry.

Ok as someone who has been quite openly anti-Gina for point, i owe her an apology. I understand why they chose not to have her in the triangle-watch the Oxnard clip and it’s pretty obvious she looks out of place next to Maddie and Amy. Problem is, she looks out of place because she’s stronger than both of them. Plus, my main argument against was that I consider her unphotogenic but yeah, she still photographs better than both points. I hope she retires this year because honestly, if she didn’t get into this year’s triangle, no way she will next year when all current 2nd years will be up for point/triangle. Best case scenario she will have the exact same spot she had last year, so what’s the point for her?

That being said, why did they pick Lexie over Heather? Heather is more senior, more natural looking, a GL and much more powerful than Lexie.

I wouldn't count out Heather.  From what I understand, they not only rotate points between Maddie and Amy, but a few others move around in the triangle as well.  I'm not sure how many as I don't have the specifics (sorry!) but it wouldn't surprise me if Heather is up during the second half of TS.

I wonder if they are trying to reign in the diva by doing that. If you have 6 people with more prominence then it's not as impressive than the one that's front and center.

Although I find Heather to come across as a lovely person AND I'm sure K&J could care less of who I think should be point (why should they, LOL?), but I don't think it should be just because of seniority.  I think it should come down to being a strong, highly photogenic dancer with that special "IT" factor.

Agreed. Certainly if the best dancers are 4 and 5 year girls, then by all means put them in front, but otherwise, nope. In many years, the senior girls have been among the best dancers. Last year, Kashara and Lacey were among the strongest dancers, so it made sense that they were upfront. When Jennifer was point, there were 3 five-year girls on the team (Jenna, Danielle, and Jessica). Jenna was the only one of that group who was a top 5 dancer on the team, so she was the only one of them in the triangle. Ally (who was actually a great dancer) never made point, presumably bc of her look. Same for Jinelle. This “put the most senior girls up front no matter what” plan seems new. They’ve certainly not had a problem hiding senior vets in the past.

In general I agree, but in this case I just think that seniority is another plus in Heather’s column. And they did seem to go with seniority for point, so it would make sense to do the same for the 3rd person.

I hear you.  No clue what TPTB were thinking.  But I still feel they caved.  There are so many better options than what they went with.  They aren't stupid.  They must know this.

I’m confused as to why they are dragging out cutting one more girl. It shouldn’t be that hard that they need extra days off to decide.

Like I said upthread (or somewhere else on here today- it's all running together) I bet they've already announced the team and have a gag order on the ladies until they want it publicly known. (just speculation)

Unless they are genuinely thinking they might take 37, and the extra "off" time will give the girl(s) on the bubble time to refine whatever it is she needs to work on, I find this to be torturous for those girls who know they aren't secure (which from what it sounds like, there could be several in that category).

This might go to stamina....this is teaching the kickline before showing it to the judges...by the time the judges see it there is the 8-8 count routine then the kickline....Kat brings it here, but an hour later after practicing then performing, she was out of kicking steam to get them up....
