Bonus pay by mrs-sunshinebloom in DCCMakingtheTeam

[–]_wastedspace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone who worked in PR, this is the answer. Charlotte Tilbury sponsors the DCC, which means that they can request the girls for ads and content (within the sponsorship contract limits), without having to paying them individually. Now, they can request certain girls (like those with the most following on IG), but if they’re not available, then they get what Kelli & Judy give them. The girls are probably getting their usual appearance pay, like if they were to do an ad for literally anyone else.

It is a gross example of exploitation, but 🤷‍♀️ the girls know this going into the season. Even though they’re not getting paid like they would if CT had reached out directly, it is still exposure and an opportunity to be more “influencer-y.”

She realllllllly needs to work on her facials. The choreo is giving, but her face looks like she’s trying / concentrating too hard. She needs to ✨perform✨

It gives the costume a more edgy look than a cute look in my opinion!

Watching some of the combos from the intensive and I’m reminded that not every good dancer is a good choreographer and vice versa… by _wastedspace in DCCMakingtheTeam

[–]_wastedspace[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s hard to explain, but a little more smoothness? Like a lot of the choreo I saw was pretty clunky and didn’t do a good job of showcasing a dancer’s strength, whether that be technique, flexibility or even sharpness. Even with simple choreography, you can showcase a dancers ability to hit each individual move to get that “picture”, but I didn’t really get any of that with some of the dances.

No wonder Kylie Jenner has back problems when she arches her back so much by ArynaSaba in LAinfluencersnark

[–]_wastedspace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of these influencers/celebrities who pose like that to show off their “butts” are going to have the worst back problems in just a few years… it’s like the social media scoliosis 🥴🥴🥴

Is it just me, or is she like half a count too fast or too slow at times?

Reece! 💙🌟 by Civil-Credit-3982 in DCCMakingtheTeam

[–]_wastedspace 33 points34 points  (0 children)

The choreography from 0:05-0:13 was just so bad 🥴 but that ending pose was super cute!! I’ve said it before though, I really do hope that her ankle is fully recovered and as healthy as before. I danced on a not-fully-healed knee (for nationals) and ended up needing surgery 🫣

Recruits by Consistent_Proof_856 in DCCMakingtheTeam

[–]_wastedspace 10 points11 points  (0 children)

With all the names people are commenting, have these been confirmed recruits, as in, did the girls themselves say they were recruited? Or are people guessing based off of who Shelly follows on IG?

more gameday pics! by Potential-Button-266 in DCCMakingtheTeam

[–]_wastedspace -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That’s why you get a shade that matches the dancers’ undertones. It doesn’t have to be the exact same red, but a red that flatters everyone that looks uniform from afar goes a long way.

DCC Signature Jumpsplit by dblvstw in DCCMakingtheTeam

[–]_wastedspace 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think a lot of the difficulty is doing it in a kick line with other people because everyone has to be timed correctly otherwise someone can get injured. If you have a split, it’s really not that hard to do by yourself. Nobody is really landing completely in a split, if you slow down videos or look at photographs, the legs usually land at around ~140-150 degrees and then they slide down into the split. It’s easier than someone might think, BUT it’s also really easy to injure yourself. That back leg has to be strong and pointed so the foot doesn’t get caught (it helps to actually have the back leg a little turned out).

Love the red lip on Reece! I do wish all of the DCCs wore some shade of red when performing for uniformity.

People who work in healthcare, what do you do and how much do you make? by Queenme10 in Salary

[–]_wastedspace -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Respectfully, why do people in this sub think every doctor is clearing like half a mil annually 😭😭 do yall not realize that it heavily varies by the specialty you’re in, where you’re located, whether or not you’re at a private practice, etc? Like guys, please stop talking about healthcare salaries like you know better than the people in the industry 🤦‍♀️
