[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I felt bad for the girls who stalled their lives and didn't make it, or the ones who stunted what could have been professional growth to aim for it, year after year. Also the one who quit college. They should mandate these girls have a degree like some professional sports do (and certainly if the NFL does...I don't recall if that is the case).

The orthodontist was so interesting to me. But I think she's better off and she did say she cheered for another team.

I don't see many going on to professional careers in dance, because they are physically beat up at the end if they've done this for 4+ years. But for the superstars I do suppose they could go on to coach or work in the NFL leading cheerleaders, or maybe start their own dance studio. That would bring significant cache and legitimate experience to a small town dance studio to say you were a DCC for a few years.

I haven't finished the series but I was gobsmacked at how they so obviously kept cutting Black and Brown girls. I mean I'm not, because this is Texas, but wow. It was pretty much an indictment of the entire system to say "the look really matters!" and "sorry, Black/brown girl, it isn't your year" in the same breath, many times over. [/quote]

+1  It really seems like they have a ratio of blonde:non-blond white ladies:non-white ladies (8:4:1?) that they think makes the "squad" look ideal, and since they had 2 or 3 non-white veterans coming back, the rookies were SOL.  I also thought it was really terrible the way they dyed the Jersey girl's hair brown, which she CLEARLY detested and was trying to be upbeat about, and then cut her 18 hours later.  Like, if she's not going to make the team at least leave her head alone![/quote]
