2019 Auditions, Finals, and Training Camp Spoilers

[Jennv]

I don’t see how any of the girls can really be friends. How can you be friends with anyone at work when your boss encourages an environment where team members gain “favored” status by tattling  on each other? Seems very toxic too me.

I was rewatching some of the earlier episodes and I noticed that not everyone of the production people know who is who and whom to include in their shots.

The girl on the left is just someone with a nice dress on! 😂

Erm..the girl with the yellow dress is Mia!

Maybe it's Lily. Apparently with different angles and under certain lighting, she can be quite the chameleon. 😜

Perhaps next year, for the Frisco TX natives, they could put on a nice dress and walk around at the same time the girls are arriving! One could easily be on the show! 😂

It really should be a 21 minimum age requirement. I know there have been some great youngin's in the past (Lacey), but the cheerleaders should look like women, not little girls.

Well I won't lol...Jackie B...her outfit is SPOT ON!  Makenzi's is blah...Brittney's looks like something a child would wear to a bday party...Justine's stripes leave much to be desired...Lauren's choice is matronly...and doesn't flatter her...Holly, Mia and Sarah's choices are perfect...Kelsey's is YAWNNNNN...and Sydney...wth was she thinking??? That is the most hideous dress I think I've seen a DCC alum wear to any function.  That's a perfect case of "just because you can wear it doesn't mean you should".

No idea..not really sure if that word is in her vocabulary. She’s involved in every aspect....branding, sales, directing, etc. The DCC is part of the Brand department, which includes also gameday production, social media & merchandising. All of these work together to meet goals and objectives, and she is a very business minded person. 

Have you considered a career as a diplomat? You are so well spoken and able to stay neutral that you'd be a natural. I mean this as a compliment! Honest!  Tact is something that is beyond me at times! 😄

Are you sure...cause according to the posters on FB, all it takes to be the director is to judge the girls and pick a squad.  Oh and maybe know how to dance🙄

I wonder who they think does all the rest:)

Omg that dress of Sydney’s is hard on the eyes.  Ugh.

I like Kelsey better w/ her hair a little darker.  

And are we 100% sure that’s Mia?  It kind of doesn’t look like her in the face?

Having seen her hair in so many colors, yes, a little darker looks good on her.  Not as dark as when they colored it during makeovers, but definitely darker.

I wish they would show some of the vets and their hair color/style changes.  Explain what they are thinking.

Well, from the scene it looked like she came back after the began rehearsing, so I'm guessing she was gone longer than she should have been, which IMO prompted the "look who's back."  Going out on a very unpopular limb, I do think Jalyn was being unprofessional.  similar to how it would be unprofessional if 1st runner up in a pageant or an actor who lost an Emmy were to slip away

The DCC way in that situation is to suck it up and congratulate everyone who made it and cry on your own time

I’m not going to attack you for having a different opinion. You and I actually agree much of the time. And I ❤️ Brennan!

But I don’t think this was anything like the Emmys where its one single winner. There’s actually nowhere to go if you’re on stage at a pageant. You’re kinda trapped. Now if someone starts snarling and saying they were “robbed,” that’s different. That would be unprofessional.

And Jalyn did wait and removed herself as unobtrusively as possible. She didn’t stomp off in a huff or start howling. I think it caught her totally off guard and she knew she needed a moment to get it together or end up losing it in front of everyone. I think that would have been far more unprofessional.

If only we had a Kanye to grab the mike out of Kelli's hand and say "Ima here for my girl, Jalyn".  That would be TV worth watching.

For the life of me I can't remember where, but I remember reading something from an anonymous former DCC in the late eighties that mentioned (quoting best as I can from memory) a very favored five year vet hopping into a player's car and leaving the stadium.

Always wondered if that was Kelli but would Kelli be a rule breaker?

This has happened much more recently.

Paige Cavalieri was secretly dating Jeff Heath while on the squad. She quit when they went public and they are now married and have a daughter. 

I imagine Kelli hit the roof when she found out.

You don't want to watch Kelli telling the photographers, hair stylists, makeup artists, lighting crew, etc how to do their job???

But you know, it will be interesting because I think Mama Bear (Kelli) is going to have a hard time watching VK strike a sexy pose in a bikini.

It’s hard to know how late she was. Due to editing we really have no idea if it was a couple of minutes or an hour. It looked like they were still stretching and warming up when she hopped back in.

Between Kat, Meredith, Victoria, Show Group and Point so many questionable decisions have been made. But one thing is abundantly clear, MTT is not about the best dancers. If I was a young savvy dancer with my sights set on becoming a DCC, I would work on ingratiating myself to Kelli and Co. Become one of her favorites and your chances of making the team go way up. Piss her off and you're toast. That's been glaringly obvious this season.

I think she chose to not watch Jalyn, or at least to say so. I wish we had the full scoop on what the real issue is for Kelli's attitude. I could accept Jalyn not making show group if it weren't for VK getting chosen over her and some of the other vets, and I also think she's better than the other rookies that made it, too. But the immature way Kelli is handling the situation and the sneer on her face whenever she looks at her or talks about her just irritates me. Jalyn handled her disappointment right after the announcement fairly well, I thought. So she needed to leave for a few minutes to compose herself. And she left and returned as unobtrusively as possible and went right back to work instead of letting her emotions interfere with her performance. She didn't carry on or show sour grapes toward the others who made it. And she really handled herself respectfully, calmly and professionally in the office later on. Kelli is the one who made an issue out of it and the snide comment which they left in the episode "look who's back." After the unbearable spectacle we witnessed last season when Malena was let go from training camp at the very last moment when she should have been eliminated much, much earlier, I think Jalyn behaved very well. She's been a favorite of mine since last year's auditions. Again, I realize not everyone is going to love her looks or the fact that she's not a giddy, bubbly girl. Each of us has our favorites. But Kelli's over the top comments about her seem completely unfounded. What could she possibly have done to make Kelli so angry and hateful toward her? It's as if she's looking for any possible excuse to criticize her or get rid of her. I'm baffled. And my feelings about Kelli have been so altered over last season and what we've seen so far this season, that I truly dislike her now. 

 I feel like last year Jalyn was one of Kelli's pet projects. If you remember she had that hair that was sort of purple or burgundy colored and Kelli wanted to fix it. Also Kelli kind of remade her and gave her a southern name. Instead of calling her Jalyn she called her Jay Lynn. So maybe she's not the flavor of the month anymore. I feel like Kelli gets bored with some of the girls. 

To be honest I agree with a lot of the other posters that Jalyn handled her disappointment really well. I rewatched the episode and she was the first one to turn around and say congratulations to Rachel A even though she was the last one called  for show group. There isn't really any evidence that she isn't performing as well as she used to perform. Every time I watch a scene and Jalyn  is in the background behind a rookie, she's always right on the beat, she's doing what she supposed to be doing, she's dancing big. Also at the show group auditions when they were all doing leaps and tricks, she was the last one that they showed performing a tumbling trick. She did a round off backhand spring back handspring step out which looked really good. It was a lot better than VK's  uncontrolled jumps and leaps. I don't think I could've behaved as maturely given the kind of disappointment that Jalyn had. Also I feel like Kelli was out to get her. I cannot believe how snarky both Kelli and Judy were towards her. And Jalyn seemed genuinely dumbfounded and couldn't figure out what she had done to offend them much less put her uniform in jeopardy.

I'm sure Mama Bear (TK) will travel with the team next year to stand next to Mama Bear (KF) during the photo session.

Someone on the Facebook group posted a link to a board that had a q and a with an anonymous former cheerleader. She said, among other things, that if you were “very favored “ you could drop hints about other girls and keep them off show group or even cause them to be cut at finals the next year. She also said there was plenty on sleeping with players and keeping it quiet going on. Also lots of tattling on each other. Favorite girls can gain weight and get a pass and others get cut.

I find it strange that so many parents are okay with their daughters taking a two or three year gig instead of moving on with life.  There are so many things that going away to college teaches you: cooperation, learning to compromise with room mates, solving every day problems on your own without parental input.  To miss out on a natural next step while your peers are getting on with life is sad.  I understand that dance is a limited time activity, but that's why you need a plan b.  This is literally the biggest thing in VK's life until she replicates herself and starts living the same goal through her daughter.  Wouldn't TK have been happy if VK made Phi Beta Phi at the University of Texas?  (I'm Texas'izing this).   What will VK and even Maddie do once it's over?  What is Jenna doing now that she's out?  I understand that not everyone goes to college or is even academic, but maybe we could tolerate the jiggle and booty bouncing if they highlighted the goals and aspirations of all girls, not just the two smart ones.  

Jenna has posted videos of herself teaching dance classes in Mississippi.  She has done choreography for an NFL team but not DCC.

Recorded the last episode with SG auditions. Was shown at 2:00 am ET. Wanted to rewatch the part with Kelli's scorecard where she crossed out Jalyn's name and wrote Victoria's name. Was NOT in the rerun. Something very fishy.
