seeing how vibrant she looks in this show to how gaunt she looked on Netflix show is just really sad and shows how much DCC really takes from these girls
Yes…this girl had such a sparkle walking into the first audition and she looked beat down and lonely and sad in the Netflix documentary. That birthday party with just her and her mom (and the fact that she has brothers and a father and none of them had *_EVER_* seen her perform?!) broke my heart.
But then, one year nearly to the day later, she got to tell her mom she made the team-and show her parents not only her photo, her locker, but her in uniform; even her mom pointed out the differences a year had made....time to celebrate!!
one thing i loved about victoria is that she ALWAYS smiled. she gets sad and smiles. she gets awkward and smiles. she gets frustrated and smiles. victoria has a loving smile naturally
People that always smile, especially when it's inappropriate to do so are creepy and make me nervous, it's not an endearing quality , it indicates insecurity and immaturity, she's lovely and young!!!! She has ample time to fix this nervous personality flaw, it won't serve her well at all out in the professional, adult world
I watched the Netflix show and I can see how much toll this has taken on her mental health and not in a great way. No one even treats her like she is part of the sisterhood. I am glad she doesn't have to do this anymore and can find another path.
She is now training in New York to become a Rockette and she also wants to be in Broadway musicals. She has such a big personality, I can definitely see her on Broadway living her best life.
I feel for her. Having someone that has never had problems with their weight try to help you is hard because you feel like they don’t understand your struggles. She is beautiful at any weight♥️
It's not that she was fat...it's just that she was heavier than originally and it was obviously something that affected her both mentally and physically. She was starting to doubt herself and you could tell. I am so happy she worked on herself and her confidence and came back stronger than ever.
She definitely wasn’t ready her first year but she came back and killed it! I think Kelli and Judy knew early into training camp that she wasn’t going to make it but kept her around so she could gain more experience. I don’t know why she gets so much hate there’s no denying that she is talented.
I think the only reason she got so much hate was because she was a legacy. I believe everyone acknowledges she wasn't ready her first year and believe she was kept around solely because she was a legacy. But I don't see how people can hate her after watching her second year of training camp because she definitely won that spot. She was so bright, improved a ton, and was one of the best rookies.
She gets hate because of all of the nepotism shown towards her. Not being cut for lying to Jinelle, Kelli, & Judy... getting show group over clearly better technical dancers... even the fact she gets a episode length video dedicated to her; while Kashara gets 8 minutes, people will view as favoritism; and honestly, while I like her it's pretty difficult to say she doesn't get special treatment.
coro4ever It seems that they always keep one girl that’s not ready. They kept Malena and even let her quit her job when she was clearly not ready for the squad. Victoria was way too immature her first year. It’s amazing how much she grew the second year!
@@WhirledPublishing Yep, that's the one I meant when I said Kashara gets an 8 minute video, while Victoria get's a video the length of an entire episode.
She came back with a tighter physique, a more polished solo routine, and a much more mature and articulate attitude. She went from a little girl who didn’t know what to say during media day to outshining Meredith, who’s 8 years older than her and should have been sharper during interviews.
You can’t have an articulate attitude???? That’s not a thing. And what does Meredith have to do with this? It seems like you just threw her in there to say something bad about her
@@shiloh8734 i think they meant is they tried to shove Meredith down everyones throat when there were other girls who deserved the chance to truly shine
@@shiloh8734 they all mention Meredith for cheap likes bc they know everyone here is jealous how pretty she is. its sad really. Meredith is 1000X more beautiful than these girls will ever bc they are all nasty on the inside. if you all need to feel better by ripping on Meredith go to a therapist and ditch your shitty boyfriend, your self esteem needs some work
@@smoothiegreenburg6065 FACTTSSS 💯💯💯 I feel so bad for her 🥺 imagine being so pretty and talented you're hated. I love her and think she's a beautiful dancer and very graceful spirit.
The way she handled getting cut and telling them it’s okay because she knew they where hurting having to make the cut was very mature of her. It was the best thing for her because she was hands down one of my favorites
I understand they need to build core strength as a athlete if its effecting your performance, but there is nothing wrong with the appearance of her stomach. I think our society needs to learn that. They dont tell men those vain comments in any sport. !
@@elizabethmulder8057 they do for male dancers!!! You dont go to Vegas shows and see out of shape men. you dont go to a male review and see anything less then perfect
And in the ballet industry, they happily endorse "under-weightness", till your bones stick out of your skin. Brutal. You have to have the right DNA and body type, and loads of self discipline, to succeed in the dance world. Good luck to all you ladies. You are all phenomenal. True athletes and artists, all in one! Well done to all of you who work in this world, amazing artform, the cheer squads! Love you guys. Love Holly xxx 🕊🌿☘🍃🌵🌴🌲🌳🍀☘🍃🌏🌎🌍Australia.
@@bulansalyapradit I don’t think it was over a year. They said she’d gained 11 pounds since auditions. So based on training camp only being about 2 to 3 months, her gaining 11 pounds in a few months I’m sure seemed alarming to them. She was in no way overweight and yes she is absolutely beautiful, but they probably didn’t want her to continue to gain weight so rapidly. It also probably seemed like something else may have been going on with her mentally, because she did seem so stressed. I think with how much Kelly and Judy seemed to love her, it was more out of love than trying to put her down. Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong about any of this, it’s just my 2 cents
You can tell at the beginning, Victoria was so excited and motivated to finally be on the DCC. The new documentary shows how much of a toxic work environment it is for women that struggle with ED. Not only that, but I think Kelly and Judy were too hard on her bc they didn’t want people to think she just got on the team bc her Mom used to be on the team and was best friends with Kelly. I’m so happy that she finally left! She is a leader and an amazing dancer. Kelly and Judy seem so fake, and talked down to her constantly. It’s no wonder she couldn’t take it anymore.
CMT's Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders thanks so much!! Love the moment she came back in season 11 and at kitty carters studio and kitty complimented her on her coming back and growth
omg victoria you are so much more than dc livestock... life has so much more to offer than that! thank god you decided not to go back this year, no one needs to be treated like that
You see them tell so many girls that they aren’t ready for the team and yet they didn’t tell Meredith that. She is a beautiful dancer and performer, but she was not ready for the team this year. She would have been outstanding on next year’s team. She wasn’t ready this year.
I agree with that, I'm curious to see if Meredith makes it this year. No hate on Meredith but she did struggle last year or from what I saw on the series so I'm curious to see if she makes it with all the new talent coming in
One word EDITING, They need a story, and they can't have "drama" so they made a story about Meredith, because she is actually a fucking star and they wanted to feature her on camera as much as possible, the production team have HOURS and hours of footage ,they can literally edit you into whatever character they want
@@bellablow4287 I never said anything negative about Meredith. I know they have to edit to make a story out of it. They do it every year to someone. I never said she was bad, I said she had some struggles, which is fine, everyone has those and look at her now, she made the team. I actually don't think shes bad, but no one knows what actually happened during the season other than what we all saw during the season, that's all I was saying that based off last season I was just curious if she actually was making that many mistakes or wasn't and the mistakes were all the cameras were catching, my guess is they won't have the camera as much on her this season and it'll be whoever elses turn in the camera.
So Proud of Victoria! From Getting Cut Your First Year To Coming Back 1000x Stronger!! She Made Show Group and is a Legacy She's Come So Far!!! Love You Victoria!!!
I really enjoyed Victoria’s journey- my favorite compilation so far and she wasn’t my favorite , initially. My impression of her was that she was obnoxious, I didn’t realise she was nervous and insecure. Kelli dispelled any accusation of bias as she was ( brutally?) honest with Victoria during her critiques. Victoria returned so sharp .dedicated and ...likeable!
Itzel Bahena I know! How amazing she goes from not making it in the 10th season to making the team in season 11 and show group every year and then group leader twice and point
It dosent surprise me she didn’t make it her first year, she was only a senior in highschool. No ones mature enough yet to have such a high duty. She just didn’t think enough yet about what she was saying, but she’s grown so much.
I love Victoria! She seems like she would be a great friend, and awesome mentor! She can relate to anyone. Like you could talk to her about anything and you could laugh and be silly with her!
I love success stories. Victoria took the time and worked her butt off and came back better and stronger than ever. She didn’t moan about it, she took everything they said and came back a winner.
Love Victoria! I was so bummed for her when she got cut last year, but she came back stronger than ever and was arguably the strongest rookie this year!
The absolute epitome of a comeback story 👏🏼👏🏼 I loved her story and her journey, and seeing her mature and take it all in stride was inspiring and beautiful. So proud of her and one of the major reasons I love watching this show 🎉🤍
I’ve watched the show since season 1 and I can really only think of 3 vets cut in training camp, Chelsea, Tara, and Hannah (there may have been more, but these are the only ones I remember). They seem to cut more from finals. I think one season they cut like 5 vets during finals.
Keyra, Kaitlin, Gabby, Ashley Michelle and Alyssa Torres (Ashton's sister) too...and Holly was pretty much cut, even though she technically "resigned"...Erica was released from the team also...
Victoria is my favorite dcc, she has really grown on my watching her since her first tryout year. i adore her sweet personality and drive! i know if she continues at this rate i hope she is a group leader in the future
Honestly I relate to Victoria. I've always been filled with nervous energy that's overspilling at times but it's because I'm just really passionate. It's so great to see she has really grown into herself and calmed (?) down when need be. I do hope I will be like her one day.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE and adore victoria not only because shes a really powerful dancer but the fact she actually has PERSONALITY unlike the other DCCs, I just hate the fact that she had to get sooo skinny. shes looks better with a little weight on her.
One of my favourite DCC ever! So happy she made it this year! To everyone who said she wasn't good enough and that she got special consideration as a legacy, I say this: When Travis Wall, a renowned choreographer and dancer picks you as his favourite TWO YEARS IN A ROW, you know you are damn good!!!!!
Victoria's transformation into this mature beautiful dancer was one of my favorites on the show. It just really showed that if you want something bad enough in life, you will work for it!
I love Victoria! She is one of my fave DCCs it’s also so crazy to watch this now, and Chandi is currently at ProBowl repping DCC. These ladies have come a long way. So cool to see Victorias comeback and these ladies persistence!
I admire Victoria's strength to come back & learn/grow, she picked herself back up & worked hard. Definitely a beautiful, talented dancer & made to be a DCC 🥰
i always liked Victoria. so what she was a little immature. who cares, she was like 18-19. she is supposed to be a kid. not be a dcc and turn into a middle aged lady. she is super talented, and has earned everything she has gotten!
@@formerflautist uhhh didnt your mother ever tell you, "if you have nothing nice to say, keep your ugly trap shut?" smhyou say this kind of stuff about a kid? my guess is jealousy. this young girl has accomplished more in her 20 years than you will in all of yours. she is amazing! and quite beautiful too!
@@michelemichele5204 She's an adult. Having an opinion doesn't make you jealous, it's just an opinion. It certainly was not a personal attack on you so your attack on me is inappropriate and strange. That said, I think the "DCC look" ages a lot of their dancers because of the spray tan and fake eyelashes. It looks especially bad on Victoria because it's way overdone. She'd be much prettier if all of that was toned way down.
@@formerflautist I think that some are quick to come to her defense since there is a group from primetimer message board that does nothing but pick at this poor girl ..these same people will follow her on twitter and instagram and then copy pictures and videos she post and paste there then take turns ridiculing her its quite sad ... but you are right .. If you see Victoria without makeup she is very young ... it amazes me how different some girls looks without the DCC makeup on ... sorry if that hurt your feelings
I loved it ! How inspirational! I felt so bad for her. I would be so stressed out to be called back over & over again especially on a sensitive topic like your weight. But each time she kept that smile on her face ! I’m so proud she did great ! What an awesome comeback !! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Seeing how much she struggled the first time just makes her comeback more amazing !!! 🤗💕
She is one of my favorite comeback kids. Her Maddie and Meridith all took their constructive criticism and worked so hard the whole year and came back so much more prepared, more mature and ready to take on the tryouts and training camp by storm. Congratulations Victoria, Maddie and Meridith. You girls are so amazing. I love watching y'all grow and perform. I love my 2 sons but I would have loved having a little girl. So I live my dream of having a girl that loves dance, cheer and gymnastics and is smart sweet and hard working, vicariously through these beautiful talented women, lol. Thanks DCC for putting this show together for everyone to watch and enjoy.
I’d forgotten what Victoria was like the first season she was on. It’s amazing the maturity and confidence difference! She really worked and improved and came out the second time around
dayton is super cute, but weirdly morose....sad looking all the time. something is not right there? she is always monotone. maybe she doesnt want to be a dcc, and has pressure cuz her mom was one. i hope she gets what she wants, because watching her get cut was just brutal. i bawled my eyes out. poor baby. she can be whatever she wants to be. i hope she is happy. i would love to see her doing something that can allow her to laugh out loud every single day! she is too young to be having the weight of the world on her shoulders!
Because they included more footage of her getting chances, we see a teeny tiny snippet of thousands of worth of video, You will see the same thing with the next cheerleader they feature
No they kept Briana season 12 way longer than they should because she was pretty .... Kalli Fulterton season 1 and 6 ... she did not get one vote from the panel only Judi and Kelli they passed over others that received more votes
It breaks my heart to see her now in the netflix show. Being a DCC was obviously hurting her. We don’t know what went on to make her feel this way, whether she did not get on with the girls and the management saw that and did not put her at par with her peers. She was probably looking at her co-rookies Kelcey and Chandi who got leaderships thinking why aren’t I up there? I have years under my belt. It was clear she felt unseen and passed over, whether this was deserved or not we don’t know. But it hurts to see her smile through her pain. Now she sees her dreams were very different from her reality. I hope she finds happiness in NY because she deserves it.
What a lovely young lady! I, actually, went back and watched her first try (sooo heartbreaking), and what a come back!!! Absolutely, without a doubt, my favorite!! You go girl!!
I think their proportions are slightly different actually. Like Kelli said, Victoria's legs are really slim and long which made her stomach look more obvious, whereas KaShara is curvier all around so she looks more in proportion.
I really like Victoria she’s always been a sweetheart and sometimes she can seem older than who she is. Even though she does know the judges it didn’t seem like she needed their help to get in. I’m so proud of her going in as a high school senior. Now you can see how strong of a dancer she is.
That young woman walked into the room *with abs* and they had the nerve to tell her that there was ANYTHING AT ALL about her body that didn't meet the most rigid standards of beauty. She had just danced for hours and they had the nerve to talk about her "fitness." Incredible.
ive been watching the dcc for a few months its amazing how all these girls have all that strength and determination its just beyond words i could definitely see myself being one of the dccs in the future...
@Joy Thomas That is so true, a few seasons back they cut Hannah due her weight gain. It showed at auditions but they brought her into camp she seriously needed Jay's help because she couldn't even fit into her uniform anymore. That's why they went from yes, no, or maybe for vets to yes or no at auditions/finals.
They tell you in training camp that you have to stay at your audition weight, and she gained 11 pounds . I’m surprised they didn’t cut her sooner, they cut other girls for it very quickly.
Happy for Victoria, but watching all those happy people gathered in the stadium, just cheering their little hearts out, pre pandemic, is what made me tear up and cry a little.
Its sad to think after this and watching the Netflix show that, she still wanted Validation from them Ladies (mom included) and didn't really focus on herself and have fun! All the pressure to be a DCC when your mom was but, you made it sis! You should have enjoyed this time! But glad you decided to quit and best wishes in the future!
@@joyofcooking777 Naaah! She quit! She wanted them ladies to beg her to stay and wanted to be a group leader so bad. She didn't do it for herself, she did it because they told her she wasn't giving.
I am so glad I watched this I now understand Victoria a lot more and can identify with her better than just seeing Americas Sweethearts on Netflix, so thank you for this.
Does anyone know if they will just film virtual auditions for the show? Or maybe it's going to be a shortened season?! But baby, my girl Victoria!! She came back like she was a returning veteran. She rocked it and looked so strong and lean! This show ALMOST makes me want to watch football but let's be serious.
DQ I think try outs have begun and are virtual. Pretty crazy!! I'm with you on watching football but I love the DCC. My husband is the Cowboys Football super fan though!!
I’m crying the fuck out right now.. she worked her ass off her first rookie year I’m just sad to see her go but she came back and she whooped her ass off the second year and now she’s awesome
seeing how vibrant she looks in this show to how gaunt she looked on Netflix show is just really sad and shows how much DCC really takes from these girls
She looks depressed, too skinny and not passionate anymore 😢😢
I came back from Netflix too. She looks drained now.
She looks perfect here. Now she’s in New York looking super happy❤
She looks 10 years older, wow..I didn't see her earlier stuff..she's so young still..heartbreaking to see as a Mama.😢
Yes…this girl had such a sparkle walking into the first audition and she looked beat down and lonely and sad in the Netflix documentary. That birthday party with just her and her mom (and the fact that she has brothers and a father and none of them had *_EVER_* seen her perform?!) broke my heart.
What gets me is when she says “I just wanna hug my mom, I don’t wanna tell her” when she gets cut... it breaks my heart every time.
Ikkkkkk that was so saddddd
But then, one year nearly to the day later, she got to tell her mom she made the team-and show her parents not only her photo, her locker, but her in uniform; even her mom pointed out the differences a year had made....time to celebrate!!
Indeed, but LOOK AT HER NOW 🥰
one thing i loved about victoria is that she ALWAYS smiled. she gets sad and smiles. she gets awkward and smiles. she gets frustrated and smiles. victoria has a loving smile naturally
That’s a hard thing to do...I know I can’t... takes a lot of strength to smile through hell...
Exactly!!!!! She deserves the world!!!!
People that always smile, especially when it's inappropriate to do so are creepy and make me nervous, it's not an endearing quality , it indicates insecurity and immaturity, she's lovely and young!!!! She has ample time to fix this nervous personality flaw, it won't serve her well at all out in the professional, adult world

Y’all should do veteran cuts and bad moments of them , it’s always rookies
All of it!
I love how the meteorologist acts like he knows what he is looking at and the pro dancers are looking at him like... NO.
Polly Pocket exactly. He has no proffesion when it comes to dancing
Polly Pocket he needs to stick to weather.

They need a story, and they can't have "drama" so they made a story about Meredith, because she is actually a fucking star and they wanted to feature her on camera as much as possible, the production team have HOURS and hours of footage ,they can literally edit you into whatever character they want
Lol ONE word, then I write a novel
@@bellablow4287 I never said anything negative about Meredith. I know they have to edit to make a story out of it. They do it every year to someone. I never said she was bad, I said she had some struggles, which is fine, everyone has those and look at her now, she made the team. I actually don't think shes bad, but no one knows what actually happened during the season other than what we all saw during the season, that's all I was saying that based off last season I was just curious if she actually was making that many mistakes or wasn't and the mistakes were all the cameras were catching, my guess is they won't have the camera as much on her this season and it'll be whoever elses turn in the camera.
@@emmaheavey4980 lol I never said you DID say that
I'm just sharing my thoughts in the comments
Stay safe be kind
#NewZealand ❤️
So Proud of Victoria! From Getting Cut Your First Year To Coming Back 1000x Stronger!! She Made Show Group and is a Legacy She's Come So Far!!! Love You Victoria!!!
Can we PLEASE get a compilation of the most dramatic moments like with Chelsea and Holly and Jenna
And poor Malena’s breakdown and the one who read the poem when she got cut.
yes omg
@@UncoordinatedPixie that would be Vivienne. She was a little out there.
we need megan’s too. she straight up insulted the entire organization!
@@ashwieeeswartz6312 what did she say?
Victoria definitely earned her spot! She’s wasn’t a lazy legacy! Congrats Victoria!
Unlike Cassie
I really enjoyed Victoria’s journey- my favorite compilation so far and she wasn’t my favorite , initially. My impression of her was that she was obnoxious, I didn’t realise she was nervous and insecure. Kelli dispelled any accusation of bias as she was ( brutally?) honest with Victoria during her critiques. Victoria returned so sharp .dedicated and ...likeable!
I loved Victoria's spirit, energy, maturity, talent, heart and mostly her smiling even when her heart was breaking. This girl earned her spot 100%.
We want maddies journey!!! From not getting in her first year, to now as point
Edited: wow, thanks for the likes! Lots of Maddie fans ❤️
For sure. One of my all time favorites.
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I really hope they make a Maddie video, she’s literally my fav dcc
Itzel Bahena I know! How amazing she goes from not making it in the 10th season to making the team in season 11 and show group every year and then group leader twice and point
Be on the look out for next week! ❤️
I didn't know Meredith auditioned last year along with Victoria, that's great that they both made it in on their second go rounds.
And Lily! All 3 of them made it through this year.
And Kristin!!
It dosent surprise me she didn’t make it her first year, she was only a senior in highschool. No ones mature enough yet to have such a high duty. She just didn’t think enough yet about what she was saying, but she’s grown so much.
I love Victoria! She seems like she would be a great friend, and awesome mentor! She can relate to anyone. Like you could talk to her about anything and you could laugh and be silly with her!
I am so proud of Victoria she kept trying and trying. She finally made her goal.
Watching Victoria's cut is heartbreaking. Glad she came back and earned her spot.
I love success stories. Victoria took the time and worked her butt off and came back better and stronger than ever. She didn’t moan about it, she took everything they said and came back a winner.
It was so great to see how much she grew between the two audition years! She is definitely a favorite!
They need to provide tissues for them when they cut them. Letting her sit there with mascara running down her face is humiliating!
Humiliating? Dam I never thought that,
I have a wondered that every single season LOL
I know, she looked like a hot mess! I wish Kelli and Judy gave her a tissue 😩
It's called ratings. To be honest, I liked they showed just how real this process is.
but also,these girls will sweat so they should be wearing waterproof mascara.
Love Victoria! I was so bummed for her when she got cut last year, but she came back stronger than ever and was arguably the strongest rookie this year!
The absolute epitome of a comeback story 👏🏼👏🏼 I loved her story and her journey, and seeing her mature and take it all in stride was inspiring and beautiful. So proud of her and one of the major reasons I love watching this show 🎉🤍
Can you guys do all veteran cuts from training camp?
I’ve watched the show since season 1 and I can really only think of 3 vets cut in training camp, Chelsea, Tara, and Hannah (there may have been more, but these are the only ones I remember). They seem to cut more from finals. I think one season they cut like 5 vets during finals.
I thought veterans get there spots automatically back???
No. There have been numerous vets cut either in TC or the final audition before TC. Colin Julia, Breelan, Kali and Teri Lynn come to mind.
Didn't Morgan also get cut as a veteran?
Keyra, Kaitlin, Gabby, Ashley Michelle and Alyssa Torres (Ashton's sister) too...and Holly was pretty much cut, even though she technically "resigned"...Erica was released from the team also...
Victoria is my favorite dcc, she has really grown on my watching her since her first tryout year. i adore her sweet personality and drive! i know if she continues at this rate i hope she is a group leader in the future
Damn the maturity change in her is miraculous and she deserved to make the team!
It makes me sad to see how Victoria was literally bullied till she lost her vibrance...im glad she is happy and sound in NY right now!
Honestly I relate to Victoria. I've always been filled with nervous energy that's overspilling at times but it's because I'm just really passionate. It's so great to see she has really grown into herself and calmed (?) down when need be. I do hope I will be like her one day.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE and adore victoria not only because shes a really powerful dancer but the fact she actually has PERSONALITY unlike the other DCCs, I just hate the fact that she had to get sooo skinny. shes looks better with a little weight on her.
I agree. It makes me cringe when I see dancers with their ribs sticking out
She grew so much as a person! I'm actually happy that she got cut the first year because of the growth that she managed to do. Supper happy for her.
I can certainly foresee the point of the triangle in Victoria's future
she is retiring this season tho:((((
One of my favourite DCC ever! So happy she made it this year! To everyone who said she wasn't good enough and that she got special consideration as a legacy, I say this: When Travis Wall, a renowned choreographer and dancer picks you as his favourite TWO YEARS IN A ROW, you know you are damn good!!!!!
I hate favoritism
Victoria's transformation into this mature beautiful dancer was one of my favorites on the show. It just really showed that if you want something bad enough in life, you will work for it!
Love Kat’s reaction to Victoria’s solo! Also I can see Tess’ bright smile during Victoria’s routine and it was so sweet!
Love Victoria! So talented. We need one of these on Jinelle!
Yeah-would love to see Maddie’s journey. Know she didn’t make it, but now she’s point.
I love Victoria! She is one of my fave DCCs it’s also so crazy to watch this now, and Chandi is currently at ProBowl repping DCC. These ladies have come a long way. So cool to see Victorias comeback and these ladies persistence!
Boyy I wished I looked like that in high school wowwww
Maribeeel. _ I wish I’d look like that ever 😂
I admire Victoria's strength to come back & learn/grow, she picked herself back up & worked hard. Definitely a beautiful, talented dancer & made to be a DCC 🥰
I really like this girl but it caught me off guard when she said she was still a teen! Like what? She looks 27.
I thought the same thing
Keep it to yourself? Have some decorum?
i always liked Victoria. so what she was a little immature. who cares, she was like 18-19. she is supposed to be a kid. not be a dcc and turn into a middle aged lady. she is super talented, and has earned everything she has gotten!
She looks like a middle aged lady with that tan and makeup. I'm surprised she's so young.
@@formerflautist uhhh didnt your mother ever tell you, "if you have nothing nice to say, keep your ugly trap shut?" smhyou say this kind of stuff about a kid? my guess is jealousy. this young girl has accomplished more in her 20 years than you will in all of yours. she is amazing!
and quite beautiful too!
@@michelemichele5204 She's an adult. Having an opinion doesn't make you jealous, it's just an opinion. It certainly was not a personal attack on you so your attack on me is inappropriate and strange. That said, I think the "DCC look" ages a lot of their dancers because of the spray tan and fake eyelashes. It looks especially bad on Victoria because it's way overdone. She'd be much prettier if all of that was toned way down.
@@formerflautist I think that some are quick to come to her defense since there is a group from primetimer message board that does nothing but pick at this poor girl ..these same people will follow her on twitter and instagram and then copy pictures and videos she post and paste there then take turns ridiculing her its quite sad ... but you are right .. If you see Victoria without makeup she is very young ... it amazes me how different some girls looks without the DCC makeup on ... sorry if that hurt your feelings
I loved it ! How inspirational! I felt so bad for her. I would be so stressed out to be called back over & over again especially on a sensitive topic like your weight. But each time she kept that smile on her face ! I’m so proud she did great ! What an awesome comeback !! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Seeing how much she struggled the first time just makes her comeback more amazing !!! 🤗💕
Poor Victoria even cared about Kelli and how hard it would be for her while Victoria was the one getting sent home. V always shows such strength
I love Victoria's attitude and smile!
She is one of my favorite comeback kids. Her Maddie and Meridith all took their constructive criticism and worked so hard the whole year and came back so much more prepared, more mature and ready to take on the tryouts and training camp by storm. Congratulations Victoria, Maddie and Meridith. You girls are so amazing. I love watching y'all grow and perform. I love my 2 sons but I would have loved having a little girl. So I live my dream of having a girl that loves dance, cheer and gymnastics and is smart sweet and hard working, vicariously through these beautiful talented women, lol. Thanks DCC for putting this show together for everyone to watch and enjoy.
Dang that one male judge was out to get her
The Queen yes and it’s not like he’s a professional at dancing to be saying comments like that
He's my hero now. Finally someone not up her butt like a wedgie.
“Male” is questionable. Don’t you mean judgemental gay?
Proud of Victoria, she worked so hard. She definitely earned her spot. !!
Best of vets! We don’t get to see a whole lot of them after their rookie year
I’d forgotten what Victoria was like the first season she was on. It’s amazing the maturity and confidence difference! She really worked and improved and came out the second time around
At least there were some initially that said hey she is not a demi-god. I also think she also got many more chances than others got.
dayton is super cute, but weirdly morose....sad looking all the time. something is not right there? she is always monotone. maybe she doesnt want to be a dcc, and has pressure cuz her mom was one. i hope she gets what she wants, because watching her get cut was just brutal. i bawled my eyes out. poor baby. she can be whatever she wants to be. i hope she is happy. i would love to see her doing something that can allow her to laugh out loud every single day! she is too young to be having the weight of the world on her shoulders!
Because they included more footage of her getting chances, we see a teeny tiny snippet of thousands of worth of video, You will see the same thing with the next cheerleader they feature
bellatui bellavi Yep, and then the next season everyone targeted Meredith. We only see a fraction of what they show.
@@extra_ice_girl lol I left a comment saying exactly that 😻
No they kept Briana season 12 way longer than they should because she was pretty .... Kalli Fulterton season 1 and 6 ... she did not get one vote from the panel only Judi and Kelli they passed over others that received more votes
It breaks my heart to see her now in the netflix show. Being a DCC was obviously hurting her. We don’t know what went on to make her feel this way, whether she did not get on with the girls and the management saw that and did not put her at par with her peers. She was probably looking at her co-rookies Kelcey and Chandi who got leaderships thinking why aren’t I up there? I have years under my belt. It was clear she felt unseen and passed over, whether this was deserved or not we don’t know. But it hurts to see her smile through her pain. Now she sees her dreams were very different from her reality. I hope she finds happiness in NY because she deserves it.
What a lovely young lady! I, actually, went back and watched her first try (sooo heartbreaking), and what a come back!!! Absolutely, without a doubt, my favorite!! You go girl!!
Victoria has been a favorite of mine all long.
They comment on this girls weight then don't pay her minimum wage. Rediculious & disgusting😔
ekim andersom 😂🤣
They get paid $12 an hour and minimum wage in Texas is about $7. They also offer them a free gym membership and nutritionist at Cowboys Fit.
Time stamp?
These ladies deserve WAY MORE MONEY! This should be a full time job for them period.
How can they make so many remarks about victorias weight when she looks exactly the same as kashara??
Agreed kashara is thick and got away with it
I think their proportions are slightly different actually. Like Kelli said, Victoria's legs are really slim and long which made her stomach look more obvious, whereas KaShara is curvier all around so she looks more in proportion.
I think keshara was just a very good dancer so they didn’t think she needed to fix her weight
Victoria's weight was going upwards rather than remaining the same or losing weight. This would have been an issue in the long run.
Kashara was bigger than the other girls but I never saw anything jiggling. Victoria’s tummy did jiggle.
I really like Victoria she’s always been a sweetheart and sometimes she can seem older than who she is. Even though she does know the judges it didn’t seem like she needed their help to get in. I’m so proud of her going in as a high school senior. Now you can see how strong of a dancer she is.
Could y’all make a longer video about KaShara ? Like you did with Victoria
i agree!!!
I want to see Lily’s whole transformation from her first try out!!
This was really touching, and you felt for her. Victoria, you rock girl!
Victoria has always been my favorite! She's amazing. She always has been!
I love Victoria I bawled when she got cut 😭😭😭😭😭 I’m SO happy she came back strong and she is so amazing!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Her and Maddie have the best come back stories!!!
Victoria is my favorite! She worked so hard and you could tell how much effort she put in. I was so excited for her when she made the team!!!✨
That young woman walked into the room *with abs* and they had the nerve to tell her that there was ANYTHING AT ALL about her body that didn't meet the most rigid standards of beauty. She had just danced for hours and they had the nerve to talk about her "fitness." Incredible.
Yes, there was one scene with absolutely, then there was at least 3 scenes showing a slight pot belly😉
Coming out of that tunnel has got to be one of the greatest feelings in the world! I got chills all over my body!
OMG the moment with her dad was precious ☺️
ive been watching the dcc for a few months its amazing how all these girls have all that strength and determination its just beyond words i could definitely see myself being one of the dccs in the future...
How can she be herself when y’all are telling her that she has to change her weight??
Weight has nothing to do with personality....
Sara Wilmott true but its damaging to the self esteem
@Joy Thomas That is so true, a few seasons back they cut Hannah due her weight gain. It showed at auditions but they brought her into camp she seriously needed Jay's help because she couldn't even fit into her uniform anymore. That's why they went from yes, no, or maybe for vets to yes or no at auditions/finals.
@@jasminegok Yeah seriously duh 😒 (attitude not aimed at you) just towards the ignorance
They tell you in training camp that you have to stay at your audition weight, and she gained 11 pounds . I’m surprised they didn’t cut her sooner, they cut other girls for it very quickly.
How can u not love Victoria? My favorite DCC for heart and the most beautiful dancer. Comeback kid. ❤
Can we have Amy’s journey?
YESSS! I think it's only fair to do the journey of this year's point!
Happy for Victoria, but watching all those happy people gathered in the stadium, just cheering their little hearts out, pre pandemic, is what made me tear up and cry a little.
Victoria 💕💕. We’ve watched her grow up. So strong second year!!!!
I predict she’ll be point and team captain on day. And then on to Mentor
She is the non-standard DCC girl that makes the team shine even more. Authentic, hones, pure. Plus a lot of talent.
Its sad to think after this and watching the Netflix show that, she still wanted Validation from them Ladies (mom included) and didn't really focus on herself and have fun! All the pressure to be a DCC when your mom was but, you made it sis! You should have enjoyed this time! But glad you decided to quit and best wishes in the future!
She didn't quit, she retired. Put some respect on her!!!
@@joyofcooking777 Naaah! She quit! She wanted them ladies to beg her to stay and wanted to be a group leader so bad. She didn't do it for herself, she did it because they told her she wasn't giving.
She grew so much and now I think she is one of the best ones! 💙
I still laugh when she decided to cut Jerry Jones’s DAUGHTER when she was asked which one had to go. 🤣🤣
Who was Jerry Jones daughter?
@@wendytabon3029 Charlotte.
@@UncoordinatedPixie thanks never knew
Vic gave a good reason. I bet when Vic was a little girl she saw both Judy and Kelli dance.
I am so glad I watched this I now understand Victoria a lot more and can identify with her better than just seeing Americas Sweethearts on Netflix, so thank you for this.
I'm so glad Victoria tried out again.
She kicked butt in such a short amount of time. Way to go girl.
Does anyone know if they will just film virtual auditions for the show? Or maybe it's going to be a shortened season?!
But baby, my girl Victoria!! She came back like she was a returning veteran. She rocked it and looked so strong and lean! This show ALMOST makes me want to watch football but let's be serious.
Love a comeback ❤️
DQ I think try outs have begun and are virtual. Pretty crazy!! I'm with you on watching football but I love the DCC. My husband is the Cowboys Football super fan though!!
If there’s no football there won’t need to be a cheer team hahaha
@@1001ilovecats not saying i knock it! I just don't follow sports, in general
Gosh, I love this girl! I hope to see Victoria one day as the point of the triangle. That'd be awesome!
I’m crying the fuck out right now.. she worked her ass off her first rookie year I’m just sad to see her go but she came back and she whooped her ass off the second year and now she’s awesome
