So You Think You Can Dance: Who Kissed the JUDGE?

Last night ten couples performed and many of the performances where extraordinary. Most dances had props ranging from a piano, a table and chair, and a nice comfortable bed. But that’s not all that stirred up the crowd.

Lets start off by talking about the fourth couple Marko and Melanie. They performed a Tabitha and Napoleon hip-hop piece, in which Marko played a guy left at the alter, but soon realized that his best friend was the one that was by his side all along. Anyway, it wasn’t just the dynamic dancing of the duo that had the crowd roaring, it was the sensual kiss at the end, that look like the two enjoyed it a bit much.

Marko and Melanie weren’t the only two who locked lips with each other, but out of nowhere executive producer Nigel Lythgoe leans over and kisses judge Mary Murphy for wayyyyy more than 5 seconds if you ask me. Host Cat Deeley said it reminded her of her parents kissing, either way it was pretty exciting and unexpected. But it turned into a kissing frenzy when Broadway star and judge Kristin Chenoweth leaned over and kissed hip-hop guru and guest judge Lil C…and no these were not grandma kisses on the cheek, there definitely was some lip action. Now Nigel must did not get enough, because after kissing Mary he hopped over and kiss Lil C…now that one was on the cheek…thankfully.

Well after the judges got all their kissing out the way, the dancing resume with Ashley and Chris performing a Sonya Tayeh dance piece, unfortunately it didn’t win any kisses from the judges.

Now one thing worth mentioning is the costumes…and Clarice’s costume was out of this world. She and partner Jess dance a fox trout and Clarice looked like an amazing spiral staircase of bling.

Another performance worth mentioning was another piece by Sonya Tayeh, danced by Ryan and Ricky. This piece involved a long ribbon that was attached to Ryan that symbolized a relationship that must end for reasons unknown. Anyway this piece received grave compliments and definitely showed Ricky’s strength.

Finally Tadd and Jordan performed another piece by “NappTab” or Napoleon and Tabitha, as we know them, and this hip-hop choreorgraphy also broke barriers. Not just because it included two college kids who were a little hung over and ended up in bed together, but it was the way break dancing star, Tadd slip on his jeans in literally 2 seconds.

Last night’s show was full of amazing pieces and surprises; it only leaves me to think who the heke will be sent home tonight.

No matter what, you know I will keep you posted with the judges decisions.

Well until next time, see ya later dancing fans!

So You Think You Can Dance: Blood shed, Bollywood & Going home with Debbie

Ever heard of the saying “blood, sweat, and tears”?

Well some of the dancers on Fox’s hits show So You Think You Can Dance kind of took the LITERALLY.

Wednesday night 20 dancers performed again, since the judges could not think of who to send home last week.

Now no one may have been sent home, but someone definitely could have been sent to the doctor.

The entire top 20 dancers performed their best and were intensely immerse in their character roles, but Caitlynn and Mitchell took their performing a step further.  The couple danced a Stacey Tookey contemporary piece where Caitlynn acted as an insecure girl wanting to leave her man. Mitchell may have just given her a reason to leave, after he mistakenly hit Caitlynn in the face during their fake performance fight.  The side of Caitlynn’s face was bleeding quit a bit, and a worker on the show had to even pass Caitlynn a napkin to dab the blood. But luckily for Mitchell, Caitlynn forgave him and the two was just happy to know that their dancing brought judge Mary Murphy to tears.

Well besides the whole blood incident another… I guess freaky-ish sort of thing that happened, was long time dancer and this weeks guest judge Debbie Reynolds, saying she wanted to bring all the dancers home with her, since she could use more kids. Ummm, I am a little unsure of that, but I can say she was a great self-confidence booster for a lot of the dancers who didn’t do well, considering she gave everyone equally good feedback on their performance.

On to other things, I only have one word to say and that’s “Bollywood is back baby”. Well that may have been more than one word, but you get the point. Anyway I think Bollywood was one dance style Iveta and Nick wished they’d never picked out of the hat. Especially since Nigel Lythgoe told the duo that it was an ok performance, but nothing compared to Season 4 dancers Joshua and Katee who also performed the dance style but with greater technique and precision.

So I guess you could say last nights show was a day filled with events, but luckily for all the dancers they were invited to Debbie Reynolds pad to be her children…not sure if that’s good or bad thing yet…:)

One more thing and I promise I am finished. If you love Cat Deeley, the shows host, watch her new online show “In the Dressing Room with Cat Deeley,” where she’ll give you all the behind the scenes action behind her awesome wardrobe, hair, and make-up.  Cat will also be giving away 2 items of clothing from her wardrobe each week. All you have to do to win is just go to “upload your look” to www.facebook.com/catdeeley to win. Good luck.

Anyway, most importantly don’t forget about tonight’s show were we will see for the first time, 4 contestants being sent home. I wonder who they’ll be. Don’t worry though because you know I’ll definitely keep you posted with all my up to the minute tweets.

But until next time, see you later dancing fans!!
