I'll take your word for it. |
Just finished, loved it! Reece and will are definitely mismatched. |
Agreed! They are so young. If it doesn’t work out, I can totally see her on the Bachelor. Similar bubbly personality and Christian values like that girl Maddy (who is now apparently married to a billionaire). |
Just finished it. It was so sad.
I get that it can be an amazing thing for some (if it doesn’t completely wreck their bodies at 24) and for those that may be able to turn it into a jumping off point. But the former cheerleader getting all of those surgeries. The one Victoria, who clearly didn’t understand she would have been cut without her connections. At least for pro athletes they come away with a good chunk of money after beating down their bodies. The requirements and level of dedication, not to mention having to re-audition every year, are not a match with calling this a part-time job. So exploitative. If it was still a co-ed squad I can’t imagine most of the current practices would still be in place (low pay, strict rules, re-auditions). |
yes. She is waaaayyyyyy out of his league. Lucky guy. |
I am actually enjoying it. I can't stand Victoria or Reece. Victoria is just a hot mess who needs a major boost of self-esteem and confidence. Reece is annoying in a childlike way. I can't stand her voice. She's a great performer, but her personality grates on me.
And they both wear those god-awful headbands in their interviews. No grown woman should wear those. |
I was an ice girl for a season! 0/10, would not recommend. The benefits and perks are probably highly variable between franchises. Everyone was super nice, there was no drama on the team, but the pay was embarrassingly low for the level of skill required. Fun thing to do when you’re young and dumb, but they absolutely took advantage of us in that way. |
I thought for sure she would realize that but looks like they are married now. |
Same! I keep seeing all these posts of people discovering the show on Netflix and think - where were you all the last 15 years! |
He’s not even rich ! She’s a dance major- she needs to marry up! |
Kelcey is beautiful and talented. Hope she finds a great job after DCC. |
She can help him start a power washing business. |
+1. I preferred the tv show to the documentary. |
I'm familiar with the show. Watched it years ago, forgot all about it, and now saw it came back on Netflix. Most people aren't tuning into CMT on a regular basis, but Netflix puts it back on the radar. |
I was on drill team in Dallas as a child, and I’m a good family friend with one of the current cheerleaders. The show seems to portray it very accurately. I had moved to Dallas the year I joined, and it was full culture shock. They take it very seriously. The work is hard, especially in the heat. But it is fun. It is like any other sport, except you put Vaseline on your teeth. Religion is very very important there. The girl I know who is currently on DCC is super sweet and from a religious family. Like most others, she showed up in a relationship. She loves to dance, and this is a dream come true. Her friends on the team are similar. Very salt of the earth girls. |
