No. There was speculation only. 

Edited to add that I have also seen speculation she was cut as a result of media training and/or because she works with a station that competes with the station the Cowboys contract with. 

Thank you

Just speculation honestly.

Hasn't been cut yet, but at this point, seems to lack power.

Thank you

@ShellyB - Thanks for answering all of our questions (no matter how stupid or odd they are!).  I was wondering, what is a typical schedule like on game days? Are the girls meeting at The Star to bus to the stadium or are they responsible for getting themselves to the stadium?  How far ahead of game time are the cheerleaders typically at the stadium?  Thanks again!

Meet at the Star, board the bus, arrive at stadium, rehearse TS, player intro, quarter changes, back to locker room to eat, get ankles taped, stretch, get ready for plaza performances, etc. Occasionally there may be something else that gets added to the agenda, but KF likes the girls to stay game focused.

Duh......Victoria!  This is her team. She gets whatever she wants, when she wants it!!

I saw that!  I've already kinda made my picks for ROTY and VOTY too

Victoria will also be the veteran of the year. That's how good Aunt Kelli thinks she is, and of course this is Vicki's team, so......

Not gonna happen, but I was there!

Shelley B.  I believe we did see you doing some warm up exercises & working the sound system.  Good to see you get some air time!

[Weeklydcc]

Is this the TCC who tried out over and over and over again on MTT without making it?  I don't know her name.  If that's her she's a Houston cheerleader now.  Glad she landed somewhere.

In the previews for show group auditions, Kelli looked surprised when Cheryl Burke said not this year. I get the feeling that Jalyn was having a bad day and was just out danced.

Even if she was limping all the way through, you don’t demote one of your best dancers after a whole year. Unless she had issues during past SG performances, they know damn well what she can and can’t do.

I hope Ashlee or Bridget is point next year. I swear if Maddie stays and is point again I will die a little inside.

Do you see her retiring? For all the hate Jenna got for not moving on from dcc due to not having anywhere to go, Maddie gets a free pass... but she’s definitely on the same boat.

Cute does not describe DCC

Tell that to the 2 points. Maddie isn’t even the cute girl next door, she’s the cute toddler next door.

VK was point for the rookie performance at the VA hospital.

Of course she was. Glad to see they’re not playing favorites after last year’s backlash. 

[parrotfeathers]

I really enjoyed this episode.  Perhaps Jalyn's Hannah's issues are that she doesn't really look good in he uniform this year?

Edited to fix wrong person.  Sorry.  So I guess Hannah has no issue after all.

No she was a Houston rockets dancer 

[MsTBGal]

Like so many of you, I was SHOCKED after watching this episode that Meredith made the team...she was a favorite of mine until this week.  Instead of "The Kat Show,"  this week it was "The Meredith Show."  I can't figure out why CMT is only highlighting one candidate each week.  It must come from the top for reasons we probably won't ever know.

I always record the show so I can watch a second time.  You always miss things from the first viewing, whether it is this show or a movie, for instance.  Again, I was shocked at how bad Meredith was when viewed side-by-side to KaShara.  Everyone that recorded this episode should watch that part of the show in slow motion and you will see what I mean.  Horrible.  How Melissa could be thrilled with Meredith's performance (remember the high five?) is beyond me.

From what we have seen so far, Meredith and Kat were total disasters compared to most of girls left to be cut in future episodes.  And all of the judges/choreographers so far have agreed with that.  ANY of those other gals would have made much better alternates than Meredith or Kat!

Who's the best hiphop dancer they have now? My guess would be Maddie.

I dunno me thinks Gina can do any type of dance, and honestly is having an amazing hip hop dancer really that important to what DCC is trying to accomplish? No. Not a legitimate reason for giving Maddie a pass.... there’s some other reason she’s a favorite as is allowed to yo yo with her weight. This happens every year..... girls are let go for weight while others are allowed to gain and lose. Kashara, Tasha, Megan C.... I could go on and on and on. 

Edited Ed to add that I think hip hop is awesome and I think the DCC would be smart to have talented hip hop dancers. I’m not sold that Maddie is that though.

Maddie is a people pleaser. I think she came in ready to give her heart and soul to the organization and K laps that up.

According to an insider upthread, Gabby had an attitude problem and could be snarky.  And I am willing to bet Maddie never gets snarky, or is never caught being snarky, and is "moldable"

I mean maybe. But I’ve never heard that from anyone who I know who actually knows these girls, so 🤷‍♀️. 

But I do agree Maddie is a people pleaser and gives her heart and soul. She’s just grateful to be there and they love that. 

[dotdot 37]

I think that everyone seems to be focusing on how some girls made the team when they are not up to DCC standards and maybe its true but this way people are focusing on Kat and Meredith  and their dancing it makes VK  dancing look good

[SmpIsimon]

Neither Meredith nor Kat made the team. They are alternates kept around for diversity and so the all-important reality show can have some drama.

So they are kind of like fill ins if needed kind of like all stars 

[parrotfeathers]

What's diverse about Meredith?  She looks very caucasian to me, as do most of the others.

[Opine]

Madeline S - beautiful girl!  BUT SHE DOESN'T SMILE!  I was telling the people in my watch party that I thought she was gorgeous but too serious and that she should be an accountant.  Then Kelli says she should be a lawyer!  Great minds????  Haha.  I hope that if she comes back she works on her power and her smile!!!

[DAthene]

I feel like K and J borrowed the idea from Melina’s position on the Jets.  Beautiful.  Great for appearances.  Just don’t let her dance.   Kit and Meredith are both like that, IMHO.

Assuming they’re having a rhetorical discussion as we all know Veruca will get ROTY... although she sees herself as a vet so perhaps she’ll get VOTY and let a little rookie have that honor... 

[SmpIsimon]

If the girls vote for ROTY, she’s got no shot. They kiss her ass to stay in Kelli’s good graces, but behind the scenes, VK is despised.

Open question/post: I just wish if they (dancers)  gained weight over the years, DCC corporate would let them move up a size within reason. A lot of people don’t stop the puberty phase experience until 21. Women are all different builds and should be allowed to bloom a little more or whatever their bodies tend to do. Dancers are highly sensitive about this (used to be one). They aren’t dumb and they know they have to look nice but...does the DCC want Ballet Bolshoi/NYCB bodies (artists of a different element and I appreciate them!) or is the DCC willing to move past the 1970s stereotypical USC Trojan dancer body? If they look hot, who cares if they have a complete six pack? Example: Dallas RB team who are OMG FIRE.

I’d rather have healthy dancers who can complete the choreo/jump split/be good teammates. 

YES!  I wish TPTB would get the memo!!! Like, enough is enough already!!

They literally participated in Meet the Team!! They have uniforms, lockers, and cheer at the games. What is the standard for being on the team? 

Even when the Maverick’s dancers had to “try out” for each halftime performance, no one said they weren’t on the team.

I totally believe they despise her, however just bc the girls vote do you think tptb wouldn’t just give it to Veruca anyhow? I was a senior class officer in hs & we were counting the class superlatives ie: most popular, best personality... & was shocked that despite the class votes the other officers were naming themselves and went with it! After last season I have no doubt Kelli would override the vote bc it’s her precious Veruca... I hope I’m wrong & im chuckling that the girls despise her, how could they not...

She was a Miami Dolphins cheerleader for 2 seasons (2017-18, 2018-19). She got into trouble  with the law near the end of her 2nd season. She did make it to MDC training camp this year but did not make it back on the team.

I wonder if they are making an exception to the 36 on the field rule for the home opener???  Or if one alternate will dance first half, or first quarter, and then they will switch??

[loveanddcc]

The photo they just posted shows 34 girls, both Kat and Meredith are in uniform. Savannah, Alexis, and Christina are missing...

As I said upthread, I realize it's a rehearsal.

Even in performance Maddie doesn't do it for me.  Same for Amy.
