CMT producer: Ok gals, if you want to get camera coverage you've got to play along with the edict from TPTB. Now smile at Victoria & high five with her!"

[rhofmovalley]

They should put Victoria right next to Gina.

I don't doubt Kelli absolutely loves and adores her cute daughter, but maybe Victoria is the daughter she secretly wishes she had.  Not in place of Sam, but in addition to.

[Bellisima08]

Veruca out loud: Ok ya'll, show of hands. Who thinks I got in here only because my Mama is besties with Kelli? Aww yay, now we have something in common & we can be BFF's for life!"

Veruca's inner voice: "So that's one girl to report to Auntie Kelli!"

[UnicornKicksBack]

Predicting Heather for pro bowl. 

Aslo way is Amy or anybody pregnant and it’s ridiculous to think you could do regular season jump splits, diet restrictions that hard etc pregnant. Would be such a liability that no way would it work if somebody was knowingly pregnant with today’s DCC standards. 

Like I know Whitney was pregnant at pro bowl but wasn’t really doing jump splits or hard core dieting plus was retired before anything showed.

Here's my theory/wish on why they took 37: They actually got approval from Charlotte to take 38. Who would be the extra girl? Lauren! She would be allowed to come back from her hamstring injury and reclaim her spot on the team without having to audition, making her only the second in DCC history to do so!

A girl can dream, can't she?

Kelli is no way giving up the “I’m the only DCC to come back without having to audition” title no way but I would love that to really happen! Kelli’s ego is out of control at this point tho...

I really hope this "cheesy high five at the water cooler thing ends tonight" - I realize the new producers want to show the girls interacting in a positive way without conflict, but it's making me 🤮.  It would be one thing if it was totally organic, but we all know someone is getting coaching on how to be a supportive teammate.  Of course, they probably had to explain what "supportive" and "teammate" meant.

Well, now you have me wondering... Hey, Face Off fans! Was Amanda one of the models when they had the Tim Burton challenge? Or was she only 12 years old at the time and the years have gone by faster than I’ll admit?

I have been watching old Face Off shows and I think the first year she was on was season 7.  The Tim Burton challenge was Season 2.  She was one of my all time favorites in the Wonderland/Oz challenge.

You can see that Tigress Erin wasn't enjoying having to hold out her arm.

Sweet Madeline Grace Salter is the only one doing in full hearted. I hope she comes back next year and makes the team. I was disappointed that she was cut.

Maybe she knew the question in advance.

Well we all knew that Kelli wanted VK to find her words so it would make sense for them to lead her to them by giving her a heads up.

So like im thinking Lexie or Miranda for Probowl this year, but it will probs go to Maddie or Amy yawning

I thought VK had it?

*hits sarcasm emoji*

[TB12]

Now that I know who made the team I’m just about over this season & it makes me kind of sad TPTB & CMT have sucked the integrity & joy out of the show the thought of watching Veruca 2.0 for another how many episodes & the fact that she made show group over Jailyn & Erin & what other vets let alone rookies that are probably spin perfect pirouettes  over her & we’ve yet to see Kitty who lost all my respect last year. I have been a DCC admirer since I was a little girl & now almost over it. Congrats to the girls who truly earned their boots I hope all your dreams come true without having to sacrifice your soul... yes ma’am...

Same here. After seeing how well she did at auditions, knowing that she was going to get cut made it hard to watch. I hope she tries out again next year as well.

So regarding the video I just posted, Kelli is wearing a Queen t-shirt.  That counts in the drinking game, if you were wondering:)

Here are two pics of Amanda when she was on Face Off.  I think there's a Face Off forum with some photos of her, too. 

I actually think she's beautiful. I like her wide eyes and the fact that she's not just a cookie-cutter blonde. 

Amanda is so gorgeous. A 50 yard line girl.

She gives me a distinct Russian vibe. Must be from her mothers side, but on the other hand, her dad also looks Russian.

Anyhow, she is a valuable addition to the team with already so much glam, she glammifies everything in her path. If you see how much more a DCC develops during her tenure, I cannot imagine Amanda's growth!

This crop of new DCC's is just what the squad needed! Kelcey, Kat, Amanda, Kristen: four exponents of the so much needed wow factor.

I could care less about seeing this stuff. Yes, it was nice listening to the girls retiring but I don’t need to see them swinging on a ring. Show me more solos! The stuff about how they actually make the team. Can you tell I don’t like the stuff where they boast about all they get to do. 🤣🤣

That's what I was thinking!!  They showed the speeches last week, so I thought that was it.  More solos!!!!

[klh25]

Based on Ep3 you can not convince me that Kat or Christina belongs on the team over Julia or pretty much anyone else that was cut.  My mind is blown....I haven’t danced on a team since I was a Strutter in 91 and I could have done a way better solo than Kat.  WTH is even happening?!?!?

I just watched that part again where she was speaking to the judges and she said something like, “no more than 10 spots available”

I’ve only watched so 1 so far, and this stuck out in my head too. The way she says it, it’s like “about 10” well... you should know exactly how many spots you have, and it seemed so contrived. Suspicious for sure, so will have to see what happens.

Could you imagine if social media was like it is now back then...Cassie would legit have had all her stuff private and it would have been a mess esp with party girls hahahah it would have been amazing to watch imo..I love a good mess...... pauses ....'Tina Kalina walks in and tries a jump split' living 

Well, Cassie still gets hateful PMs, I follow her and she posts them sometimes. Like grown women telling her she was the worst DCC ever. Her Insta is totally open and she shares a lot there (I’d argue over shares, but I don’t post any pics of my kids and she posts a ton, so we aren’t even in the same stratosphere with kids and social media).

Feedback from last season wasn't good and she blamed CMT for making her say certain things and she didn't want to give them that control anymore.

She was becoming a caricature of herself.  And like we've said on this board, giving her opinion on more than just technique anymore.  

At some point, CMT will go away and the squad/personnel will probably be happier and healthier than they have been in a long time.

Is it possible they've looked over the past couple years and realized there's always girls that quit? Alexandria [her trying out made no sense], Milan, Khalyssa, all quit before the end. So maybe 37 makes practical sense.

What happened with Alexandria?  I got so far behind in reading I skipped ahead and now I’m lost.  When I saw she reauditioned all I thought was “girl, why?!?!  Give it up!”

I have a feeling this season we are going to get a lot of this "stuff" The rookie class this year is so darn small and as a whole not as interesting as other years . Thats why VK is being pushed to the front of the class. You know, I really dont have a problem with Victoria at all. Im glad she lost the weight and came back with more focus. She's turning 20 this year, its about time she started to mature. So, props to her..but I dont need it rammed down my throat ever single episode how WONDERFUL and MAGICAL she is this year. I was just thinking this season of the show felt so different. And now no Miss Kitty. Wow.  I loved her segments. 😞 

And also finding out the truth of what really happened with Gabby...*sigh* If K&J wanna go after one vet for weight, then go after the rest too...such bs. 

[MTTFan]

It's official.  Kat is the new VK and that it is saying something.

Forgets her dance and can't kick.  Not to mention the "they have more to lose."  Honey, at least they had something to lose.

Uggggh why K&J just why?

Oh, it took me a second.  Alexandria, the former New England Patriot Cheerleader, who made the squad in season 12?  She quit because her future mother in law became ill and she moved back to be with family.

[M1977G]

Wow, I was sure I never would catch up on this thread! I kept reading and new page numbers kept appearing faster than I could click to the next page. And then I got to the pages of "Gina quit" hysteria, which was pretty...hysterical. Not to say my heart didn't pound a bit when the "news" first broke. But that was one of the funniest things I've ever seen and experienced on this forum. I loved it! 

I'm beyond underwhelmed by the Amy-Maddie point thing. And when I look at dance photos of Caroline, I keep thinking, I can't wait til this woman is in the triangle and hopefully point! That photo posted above is beautiful. She always has gorgeous lines and extensions, but that photo is fierce. I, too, love Rachel W.'s expression. She's on the edge of her seat watching her team mate. I truly do not understand selecting Maddie or Amy--let alone both of them--over performers like Caroline and Gina. Someone posted a GIF of the DCC (I think it was at Hall of Fame), and Kash's first year at triangle, Amy was back in the third row and not even on the front line of the triangle. So, I'm not sure what sense it makes for the new point to have been literally so far behind the previous point, especially as I think they were in the same rookie class. It just suggests that TPTB did not see Amy as being on par with Kash, and now she has a better spot than Lacey ever had. Puh-leaze. 

I am not yet familiar with enough of the TCCs (now rookie DCCs!) to weigh in on the forum question if this is the blandest rookie class ever. So far, from what Ive seen in the first two episodes (waiting for episode 3 on iTunes, sadly), it's a good thing this is a small rookie bunch. Currrently, I feel fine about Julia's cut. She's a good dancer, but I don't think she's that pretty and she looks like she's 40. I do think that the 2nd years are carrying the majority of the team's fierceness and wow factor, and it sucks a bit for them that they are backup dancers to Amy and Maddie. Hopefully, A & M at least will model excellent leadership to the more junior DCC and then both will freaking retire. I expect Maddie has nothing else on her horizon and will want to stay to be teachers' pet for a while. [Insert eye roll.] I can only hope her position at point is supplanted next year by rockstars, or at least that she is flanked by photogenic powerhouse dancers in next year's triangle. Lexie definitely is there to "pretty up" the gameday photos of the triangle, but I want some real badass dancers up there next year. This is the first year since I started watching the show I've actively disliked the selection of triangle and point girl(s), and it is a bummer. I'll be over there with @go4luca watching Bridget--and Caroline, Gina, Amber, Rachel W., Ashlee, Hannah, Cianna, Heather, Tess, and pretty much anyone who is not Amy, Maddie, or Miranda.

But how do we know they aren't interesting when we don't get to see them?  When they are shoving Kat and VK down our throat?  And we won't even get into this crappy editing and the new hanging around the water cooler trend.

I truly hope the others get some love as the season goes along.  And not just over the top sob stories. Like Alexandra. Jeez, that girl bursts into tears every time they point a camera at her. She was sobbing at her first into a few season ago too.  Also, I believe African American Alexandra was season 9 

Yea the editing is strange too...then again, I could be bitter about Gabby and Miss Kitty haha

Sorry, but there is just something I find off about her -- too hyper, too up, too over the top -- I just don't see it.  Maybe she will grow on me as the season progresses -- as you say she made it so K&J must have seen something.  Right now, I am just asking why.

As long as she doesn't gain 11 pounds during TC and is told to work with Jinelle.
