I don't recall anyone saying there was a rumor that someone was calling Vic names to a spouse/friend/insert other outsider, the rumor is that this is happening in the locker room.  

I think that’s my point. The rumor about talk in the locker room seems to have gone beyond what was actually stated. The only statement that I saw was that some of the current DCCs coined the term “illegitimate” for Victoria. It may be widespread locker room talk, but it may not be. If i, along with me friend, who also happens to be my coworker, snarks about a supervisor and one of us mentions it to another friend (who isn’t an employee), that doesn’t mean we’re running around the workplace talking about the supervisor.

I’ll move on though. I’ve got way too many things to do today, so I’m not being clear lol.

I understand that, but the rumor that is going around is that it is happening at the workplace, not that they are calling Victoria names to their non-DCC friends, thus making people assume it is also happening in the locker room.

Re Victoria: 36 women and everyone is all sweetness and light? Please. Of course, there's cattiness going on. I don't understand why that's so hard to believe despite what the girls post on social media. Now, some of the stories might be more outlandish than others, but I doubt all the girls get along all the time. DCC is always equated to being in a sorority, and I've yet to encounter a sorority that didn't have problems in the sisterhood.

YES!!!!!

Regarding Nicole Bulcher being a WOC....many WOC appear "white."  If a woman is of mixed-race heritage she may or may not self-identify as a WOC based on the rest of her family, how she was raised, and what life experiences she has had.  I have not seen anything to support the claim that she is a WOC, and the only reason I say this is because I do believe that Kelli would have said something about Nicole's "exotic" ethnicity to add the myth that the DCC is a diverse group.  

Lots of white girls have super curly hair just like Nicole.  My mom is one of them, and I've got many friends with the same type of hair as Nicole.  

Just looked at Nicole’s Instagram. She’s definitely not a WOC. Her parents both appear to be Caucasian. However, her dad may (possibly) be of middle eastern decent. He doesn’t really look like it but Nicole, and her brother, have a middle eastern look to me. JMO. Whatever her background is, she is stunningly gorgeous!

I'm sure that's one of those things that Kelli discusses right after she says that these girls are your future bridesmaids:)

Question for anyone: I know that Alexandra didn't make the squad, and it was touted on the show that she'd spend 5 years working to perfect her technique etc. DCC:MTT obviously has showed the cut yet, and I imagine she was devastated. Anyone had any idea if she'll try again next year, or was this year it, like with little Amy? 

I know Christina tried out for 5 or 6 years before she made it. Brennan was at least 3. Just wondering. I feel bad she didn't make the squad (yet) after trying for so long. She's obviously on Kelli's radar. 

I'm pretty sure in a talking head during auditions she said that if she didn't make it this year, she wasn't going to try again. It's gotta hurt to have come that close.

I don’t think the original comment of Simon said anything about girls talking within their “workspace”, but the conversation did move to that direction after that. I doubt any insider would give any hints in where and how they got this info and especially not someone who has been posting for a while now without getting caught.

  4. Tess looking great!

Why wouldn't they shoot a pic without Amy's arm over her head, it looks so out of place? Agree with the other poster Amy and Maddie look overly airbrushed and poor Heather's hair does nothing for her, she's so much prettier than that...

DCC's are considered employees of the Dallas Cowboys Organization and see Dallas Cowboys affiliated and approved doctors.  If Victoria was seeing a Dallas Cowboys affiliated doctor by appointment made by an approved Dallas Cowboys employee; it is certainly within the realm of possibility that Charlotte or Kelli were notified of Victoria missing the appointment since Victoria's employ falls to Charlotte and Kelli .  Charlotte as Chief Brand Officer (which the DCC fall under) or Kelli as the Director of the DCC. 

IMO, the type of information that can be released to outside individuals depends on how the DCC contract is worded.  As we all know, every Veteran and TCC sign an employee contract at the First Meeting - officially signing away a year of their lives to the Dallas Cowboys.  It's possible that the contract states that employees waive the right to privacy when seeing a Dallas Cowboys affiliated doctor related to a condition specific to your position within the Dallas Cowboys Organization.

The hashtag has taken root on social media as well...why I let myself read some of those comments is beyond me.  I know we've got our own troubles on this forum, but YIIIIIKES.  

I wasn't surprised by anything VK (or any other DCC) might get in their DMs, be it hateful, overtly sexual, or just awkward.  I get weird stuff in mine all the time and have no social media presence at all unless you're an avid quilter!

I just watched the Victoria and Janelle scene the other day as part of my Season 13 rewatch. I am still confused if a doctor’s appointment was ever made because Janelle made it sound like she sent Victoria a request to make one. However, I feel like what is worse is that Victoria was ignoring Janelle’s texts and when confronted told her that she wanted to get help from someone who had struggled with their weight instead of her. While that may be a valid opinion, on what planet would Kelli allow another TCC to stay after they ignored Janelle and said to her face she didn’t want Janelle’s help? The fact that she thought she could ignore Janelle speaks volumes. The fact that she thought if she just ignored the issue because it made her uncomfortable speaks to her immaturity. Her apology to Janelle was half assed and kind of pathetic. Kelli would have cut any other TCC to show such disrespect but she sugar coated everything for “beautiful storm” Victoria.

In an earlier scene when she first brought up that Victoria gained 11 pounds in training camp, she said it in an offhand almost apologetic tone which is night and day from her usual rather harsh tone to vets who gain weight. The whole Victoria weight issue last year was a complete mess, it showed the nepotism more than anything else.

This!  I was friends with the mean girls in my sorority because I couldn't afford to be their enemy.  There are a lot of times in life when you do facebook likes for people you hate because you work with them or because they are family.  I've never met a group of women who didn't fracture into smaller groups and get catty.  It doesn't make them bad people, it just makes them human.  So I wouldn't take their "support" at complete face value.  I'm sure some love her and some hate her.

After realizing that Nicole Bulcher is not a person of color, that makes the number 17, but would still be 18 when including Kat from the 2019 Rookie Class. Then, I added Chandi, who is also part of this year's Rookie Class, and that makes it 19.

Here's my list RE-DONE...

2009 - 6 (3 Veterans, 3 Rookies) - Nicole Hamilton, Ally Traylor, Tia Williams, Jackie Bob, Mia Greenhouse and Vanessa Jenkins.

2010 - 5 (4 Veterans, 1 Rookie) - Ally Traylor, Tia Williams, Jackie Bob, Mia Greenhouse and Sasha Agent.

2011 - 4 (Veterans) - Ally Traylor, Jackie Bob, Mia Greenhouse and Sasha Agent.

2012 - 6 (3 Veterans, 4 Rookies) - Jackie Bob, Mia Greenhouse, Carisa McMillan, Jacie Scott, Jasmine Goode and Jenna Jackson.

2013 - 6 (Veterans) - Jackie Bob, Mia Greenhouse, Carisa McMillan, Jacie Scott, Jasmine Goode and Jenna Jackson.

2014 - 3 (Veterans) - Jacie Scott, Jasmine Goode and Jenna Jackson.

2015 - 3 (2 Veterans, 1 Rookie) - Jacie Scott, Jenna Jackson and Robin Richardson.

2016 - 4 (2 Veterans, 2 Rookies) - Jenna Jackson, Robin Richardson, Cersten Bradley and Khalyn Larke.

2017 - 5 (4 Veterans, 1 Rookie) - Jenna Jackson, Robin Richardson, Cersten Bradley, Khalyn Larke and Keyra Ford.

2018 - 3 (1 Veteran, 2 Rookies) - Khalyn Larke, Ashlee F. and Briana B.

WOC also includes Asian women....so Kim Tong & Yuko should be included.

As for HIPAA, anyone can make a doctor appointment for someone else but not be able to reschedule or discuss the appointment without written permission.  What goes on between patient & doctor is a whole other ballgame. For anything to be released to anyone, there has to be written permission from the patient....there is nothing casual about it. If someone from the office told Jinelle that VK didn't show for an appointment that person is in direct violation of HIPAA.

I haven't seen anything saying whether or not Alexandra plans on coming back.  She may not be able to post anything until her cut is shown🤷‍♀️.  And then of course, it depends if she is told to try again or gets that gentle hint:/

It's hard to tell if it's worth trying out.  Some girls just never make it to TC, but then you have girls like Kelli Q who tried out how many times and finally made it.  And it's frustrating to watch in the older seasons cause you see who they take to TC - like Breelan over Kelli and you wonder what was the deciding factor.  Now that I have finally seen Hannah in old eps, I can say it was her kicks.  There is that one gal who tried out for her 7th time this year, and she made it to TC for the first time in several years.  

Sometimes I wonder if the judges are thinking, hey she's back - let's see if she has improved or oh, she's back, why is she here.

You re-watched it????   I could barely get thru it the first time🤣

Lol!! Well as I said I was trying to understand Travis's preference for VK and I was also trying to compare how others danced against her. She did ok with the dance moves, but there was nothing I saw that made her "best in the room." I would have said those words were more applicable to Gina or Amanda. I do agree that it's a hard dance to watch. Those jerky movements, while in keeping with the tone of the music, were unpleasant to watch. I have seen the music video of the song & I personally found it a bit unsettling. Certainly not in keeping with DCC's style and brand.

Unless the Veteran does something to be on Kelli's shit list (Chelsea, Ann, Olivia....).  Of course if Kitty hadn't opened her big mouth RE Chelsea.....(side note: I don't miss the Kitty segments this year)

You are right about that. It's really only if Vets do something not in keeping with DCC standards that focus turns on them like if they have weight issues, they date a player, or they party too much. I guess they do get some attention if they make point or are a group leader, but how about they shine a light on Vets when they do something positive? Like doing volunteer work, the charities they support or when they call attention to certain causes. I'd love to see stuff like that.

Having served in the United States Marine Corps. I can tell you groups of people breaking off and getting catty is not just a "Woman Thing". At any duty station, maybe I was lucky to interact with 6-8 other women. Men break up into smaller groups and get catty as well. I might even say more intensely than women...but in the grand scheme of things...I think it is just natural human behavior. That being said, My momma always told me- If you don't have anything nice to say, then don't say anything at all!!!

Thank you. You said it more clearly than I did. The original comment was vague enough that it could’ve just as easily referred to some DCCs making the comment to their non-DCC-friend (Simon) as it is that there are DCCs bullying her everyday or saying “illegitimate” under their breaths each time she comes in the room (which would be toxic).

Thanks! I remember Kelli saying something re: Kelly like, wow, she just wasn't on our radar. For some reason others outshined her before.

Auditioning for DCC depends on the likes/passes of several different people, and I think some girls just don't get noticed. Some eventually do, but lots of other really good dancers just don't.

I’ve been a health-care law attorney for more than 20 years.  HIPAA restricts covered entities from sharing certain personally identifiable information and electronic medical records without patient consent subject to certain specific exceptions. We have NO IDEA what types of consent forms, disclosure forms, etc. these girls are required to sign when they audition and go into training camp. It’s entirely possible that if they’re being treated by DCC-employed or -affiliated health care providers that they’ve already signed a consent form permitting the release of otherwise protected information to DCC/CMT personnel upfront. It’s equally possible that they haven’t. We just don’t know.

The idea that they told the squad not to give corrections completely undermines what Judy said the season that Cassie and Ally jumped all over Taylor.  How do they explain them apples?

it also undercuts the previous seasons where Sydney Durso said its "the DCC way to help . . " and the scenes where vets like Brittany was helping MacKenzie or Whitney assigned to try and help Karissa make the squad, etc etc.

As someone said, its VK world and we are living in it.
