Looks like this season, Nigel really want lots of contemporary dancers in top 10. Have Nigel ever thought that maybe Maks got more votes than Kayla?

Remember in season 4 when he gushed all over Kherington. Turn out Twitch had much more votes than Kerrington.

Cause Twicth become the runner up and Kherrington was the first female dancer to go home in top 10.

It will be total irony that Kayla will also had the same fate with Kherington in top 10.

So far none of the remain 8 girls capture my attention. My prediction, again a male dancer will win this season. Probably Evan who had major personality. Or maybe Brandon if Mia kept personally attacking him and he will got tremendous votes from the public.

Meanwhile I can understand why Max solo was not good cause he did not think he will be in bottom 3.

At least Jason prepared a good solo cause he also know before the results he had a possibility in bottom 3.

So far we had already 6 different couples in bottom 3 and it just week 2.

Interesting that Ade, Kupono, and Jason were the three featured male dancers and they killed it. I wonder if that also had something do with Jason and Pono being safe and Max going home. Mia usually saves the featured spots for the stronger dancers.

I think it’s also the ones she likes too – Brandon, a strong contemporary dancer, wasn’t featured. And she’s been nothing but critical of him.

We haven’t had a choreographed couple piece from Mia yet. I bet we get one next week. And I say there’s a good chance that Jason and Caitlin get it (if TPTB like them enough, I guess). Ade and Melissa are due to have a partnering dance (they’ve had contemporary and jazz so far), and Kupono is due for a partnering dance too actually, since he’s had jazz and hiphop.

Of course, Jason and Caitlin are also due for a partnering dance after having Bollywood and Hip Hop, so who knows. I just *HOPE* they get a Mia routine.

The girl singing last night was Kristina DeBarge of the famous DeBarge family (80s? earlier?). Her song is lame (no lyrics for the most part) and she didnà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t even pretend to lip sync! They should just lose the singing, b/c ità ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s NOT. My suggestion it so put an Idol a week NON-SINGING and as a nice cross-over. Otherwise, just lose this and put another dancer or dancers on.

Hell, why not take a page from DWTS and have repeat performances of the judges’ favorite from the night before?

Even better, make the dance-for-your-lives solos a little longer.

Nigel is having surgery today–good luck, Nigel! I am not sure who is sitting in: I think Adam is too busy. Maybe Mia? Lil C again? WADE? DAN? BRIAN? (I think Sonya would be hysterical!)

I was sorry to see Ashley leave. I liked her.

I think with this year’s dancers, every week from now on is going to be tough because they are very strong.

I am having a hard time seeing Kayla and Kapono as a couple. That should be interesting.

Does anyone else think that Ashley looks a lot like Ashley Judd?

Good analysis of Mia’s choreography. I guess I just freak out whenever I can’t identify Evan right away in a group dance. LOL
