2019 Auditions, Finals, and Training Camp Spoilers

I don't hate Miranda. I just don't think she's the "total package"... But then again, none of them are. Well, maybe former DCC Maggie.

[Guest]

Maybe if Miranda fixed her uniboob (expensive), get a fresh new haircut, and stop using her grandma's rouge. I would be more tolerant of her.

Uniboob is the only think I dislike about Miranda. I think she has that Ashley Judd old school Hollywood thing going on and seems super nice, plus actually has a real job. 

I agree. Miranda gives off kind of a classic, mature vibe that some people seem to read as "old" but I don't see it that way. She strikes me as poised, intelligent, and authentic.

I feel that Brennan too gives off that vibe. The difference is that Brennan's classic look is more refined, which Miranda lacks.

Ashley teeters on Drag Queen.

I’m probably going straight to H-E-Double Hockey Sticks...but I thought same thing 😂🙈. We just went to Lips (the drag queen review show - if you’ve never gone for a show you are missing out!) and the emcee the night we were there is a spitting image of Ashley. Still, both Ashley and Alexis (the drag queen) are gorgeous. I’m completely envious of their contouring skills.

Perhaps Ashley is past that phase of her life - the petty catty shit that girls sometimes fall victim to - but sometimes an unfortunate reputation follows you.  (Much like Victoria. Maybe you guys have heard of her.)

I was Victoria's age when I was married and sending my husband off to Iraq. 

I give zero passes on the "I was young and dumb" card don't hate me for my actions. Victoria's actions showcased that she is, at her core, is dishonest mean girl. And do you know what happens to dishonest mean girls? They grow up to be dishonest mean women. She'll be just like her mother---botox and all.

That's why I don't think Kelli and TPTB are favoring Victoria. She wouldn't allow her surrogate daughter to be depicted in that light. Cassie got an under the radar edit, why didn't Victoria?

I actually think Lexie was promoted because Lauren left.

Cassie wasn't stupid enough to do what she did when the cameras were rolling. Cassie was raised by a woman who has class and decorum. She was raised to mind her p & q's and not try to be the loudest in the room. 

Victoria gave them the footage and like all reality TV shows, they edited it for the ratings. Cassie would have gotten a similar edit if she did the same, but she was a low key mean girl.

I respectfully disagree. Cassie was raised by a woman who freely gave out Cassie's ADHD meds like candy, to other DCCs who needed to loose weight and who had focus problems (Courtney Cook).

My vote is Alexis got promoted. But who knows if Lauren would have been a 2nd leader? While I certainly think she was capable and would have been excellent I wonder if she would have had the time for the additional commitment and been able to do it with her existing injury.

The part about whether or not Lauren would have had time for 2nd GL duties has merit.  She was also part of SG which takes a lot of additional time commitment. 

My post above stating I would have loved to have seen Lauren as a 2nd GL was meant without the injury that caused her to retire.

Show group doesn't take as much time as it used to though.  The girls aren't spending extra time learning the dance routines they used to take on the USO tours.  They learn routines for the DCC and fitness camps.  Still a time commitment, but not like it was.

This is not directed to VK per se, but I would hate to have it in the back of my mind that the only reason I was named to something was because my relative had an in with one of TPTB.  On the other hand, one would have to be self aware to even reach that thought.

I would also hate to think that I would lose a friendship because I didn't hand the daughter of one of my friends, something that she hadn't earned and but expected it while demonstrating a crappy attitude and air of entitlement. Of course, if that friend hadn't aged well and was living vicariously through her daughter it may cause her to stop speaking to me because things didn't go the way she expected or thought they should.

and yes, people will probably still have it out for VK -- for the same reason, Cassie took so much crap when she was on the team.

I agree.  I know I always hated the "Fan Vote" for the same reason - great idea that turned into a popularity contest.  I'm glad I never had to endure anything like that because I didn't want to win something like that and always wonder if I would have ever made Training Camp that first time on my own merits and not just because I won a popularity contest (not that I ever WOULD win a popularity contest, though).  I agree with you about the "knowing someone" issue and the self-awareness.  It would also take self-awareness (and maturity) to tell someone that you want to do this on your own and you don't want any issues favoritism or nepotism to factor into a decision just because you know someone.  That's something that Tina and Victoria DON'T have (especially Tina to have put pressure on Kelli to make sure that Victoria got on the squad no matter what happens)

I was avoiding posting until I had confirmation from another person but I’ve had a lot of PMs so I’ll share what I’ve been told.

The two cuts that were made, as of Wednesday, were Gina Marie & either Ashley Hancock or Julia Fife (I believe it was Ashley and pertained to flexibility and kicks). 

Again, not confirmed from 2 sources so it’s not an absolute. 

Well, that sucks for them, especially if they had to move to the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex from out of the area.  I wonder what the cuts were for especially since they came so close to the start of camp.  Still, I think there have been cuts in the second week so I'm not ENTIRELY surprised they would do this.  Plus, the girls are given feedback in camp so it shouldn't be a surprise (or not much of one).  There are some outliers, like Lily last year and other girls who are cut in their first office visit and/or on the last night of camp, mere minutes/hours from when the team is announced.

19 hours ago, Loves2Dance said:

No. Victoria made Victoria look bad. I firmly believe that 100% of the reason why Victoria is the self entitled brat that she is, is because no one has ever put her feet to the fire and made her accept responsibility for her actions. Blaming it on the show and editing does the same thing. 

No one forced Victoria to get milkshakes after practice and put on excess weight. No one forced Victoria to lie to Kelli's face multiple times and try to throw Jinelle under the bus. Victoria chose not to go to a scheduled doctors appointment. Victoria chose to be a bad locker room mate and gossip. Victoria also chose to tell everyone she was a shoe in and she also chose to blurt out her disappointment for not making show group when her own place on the team wasn't solid. 

These are all things Victoria did and it's not even everything. If she were anyone else, she would have never made it back to finals let alone training camp. Her redemption mountain is unclimbable, imo. 

Victoria did a LOT of things last year, any one of which would have gotten any other girl blacklisted from EVER returning to Camp, much less in the combination that Victoria used.  The weight gain MIGHT have been the only exception and that would only occur if she came back in fantastic shape.

Travis dances better than some of the girls!  There's a move they do towards the end where the butt's back, the poms are down, the torso's forward and the legs are straight and they "bounce" three times.  Some would think that a guy would look weird doing that, but he doesn't.

If they had uniform fittings this week, I wonder if that was a factor? They always says it’s “so” important.

Yes, they said uniform fittings are "so" important, but Dayton had a figure that was PERFECT in the uniform (and no weight issues), but that didn't help her any while Victoria was spilling out of hers, but Kelli was trying to figure out how to keep it on her long past the time any other girl would have been booted out of camp for not looking good in the uniform/gaining weight.

"Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones" 

There are a LOT of people in Victoria's age range who put their mistakes on social media (and some of those antics either get them arrested or put on some national cable channel due to the stupidity of it).  Also, that particular sub-set of age group are generally immature and lack a general sense of awareness that they aren't the most important person on the planet or whatever their idea is.  Life usually smacks them upside the head early enough that they survive to hit the mid-twenties.  The rest either crash and burn or burn out entirely.  I realize this is a generality, but it seems to hold true from what I've seen.  

[KTUCKER20]

I honestly really didn't think Cassie looked bad her vet year. I thought her dancing was good kicks were decent and she had a good figure. But what do I know I'm not a dancer. Her mean girl stuff if true is a different story but she looked worlds better than VK did last year. Easier to justify her making the team.

Kelli may be a "producer" of the show but she doesn't have final edit approval -- that's up to CMT (and probably Charlotte as President of the Cheerleaders and executive with the Dallas Cowboys organization) so it is not an issue of Kelli allowing a bad edit.

As far as "favoring" VK, did you watch last season?  Have you read the board from last year?  VK fell in her audition, gained 11 pounds during camp, lied about going to a doctor and was known to throw other candidates and staff under the bus.

As far as Cassie getting an under the radar edit -- did you see the scene where Jay questioned whether or not anyone else would be allowed preferential treatment? Also, Cassie did get an under the radar edit, it was because of she was a four-year vet, who walked into auditions with a brace on her knee. VK hadn't even made the team but had the audacity to express disappointment when she didn't make show group.

Finally, if VK got a bad edit but was favored by TPTB -- it can't be both and you can't edit in what isn't there.

She cheered for LSU like Cersten and Erica and I know they had their issues ha. A lot of people don't like Cersten and all.

You wonder who edited the scene with Milan and who had the idea to start with.  Let's turn this uncomfortable scene with Kitty picking on Milan and make it look like we support her getting an education.

Regarding VK, I was surprised at some of the scenes - ie showing her tummy up close, criticizing her pink dress (even though it was deleted) - at that point, who is editing cause if it's Charlotte, that's quite the turn around from awwww, she fell out of her turns.  And when Kelli watched the eps, was she surprised at how she was portrayed, and is that why Judy was defensive on social media.

Agreed -- I don't think that Kelli has any say in how the edits are made 

As for Charlotte's turn around -- she might have been able to excuse a fall out of a turn but after seeing everything play out during camp maybe not so much.

On the other hand (and I can hardly believe that I am saying this) CMIT needed a villain and VK provided them the ammunition to be that villain and they ran with it. (they have always had a someone who was on the bubble (Katelyn Legrand, MacKenzie, Megan F Viviian, Karissa) but they never made a season of them.

As far as Judy getting defensive on social media, you and I know that there were insiders on the board last year (some known and some unknown) and information on what was going in camp did not paint any of the players in a favorable light which explains the social media lockdown this year- that and the fact that those insiders have retreated into internet obscurity.

Probably cause she's tried out before and didn't make the squad.  If she were to make it over more qualified TCC's, than perhaps it will be brought up.

I think part of it is because she seems determined to make it on her own and not using her connection to make the team.  She also seems mature and professional.
