So You Think You Can Dance Top 14 Spoilers! – Kelly Clarkson set to Perform

edit: DEFINITELY NOT the place to put it. Please STOP posting off-topic links in threads

oooh I love when Mia is the third judge. She can be a bitch sometimes, but I really respect her never holding a thing back. She’ll tell you how it is and possibly make some people cry.

OF COURSE Kayla and Kupono get Contemporary. How convenient. I’m ready for the Kayla tongue bath. Bring it on.

I also love Napoleon and Tabitha’s choreography so I’m looking forward to that, even if I have to see Phillip. I love Jeanine though.

I thought Phillip already got Hip Hop during the first week? Maybe I’m wrong.

Anyways, I’m looking forward to Jeanette/Brandon doing Latin. That should be hot!! And we finally get to see Evan do Broadway. I have no idea what the pas de deux is, but I like Ade and Melissa.

pas de deux

Literally a “dance for two”!

So do people still think that Kayla is TCO? So far, Melissa has had contemporary, jazz, rumba (not exactly a ballroom that is uncomfortably out of her wheelhouse), and now pas de deux. Could they BE more obvious??

I bet Janette and Brandon either have salsa or mambo and Caitlin and Jason have jazz.

I don’t really think Kayla is as much of a chosen one as I just find her consistent tongue baths annoying. I don’t think she’s going to win, no, but I think she’ll definitely finish near the top. I just don’t think she’s as GREAT as I keep hearing. I do think that Melissa and Ade have had routines that are perfectly in their wheelhouse, but I don’t find Melissa as much of a chosen one yet either. I do think she’s great though, but I think she’s great with Ade. I just like that pairing. I don’t know I lose interest in some of the pairings when/if people lose their partners sometimes.

I’m curious with whatever Brandon and Janette do, if Mia will finally be on Brandon’s side, or will she rip him a new one?

I thought Phillip already got Hip Hop during the first week? Maybe I’m wrong.

They did the Mad routine.

I wanna see what Mia tells Brandon. That should be interesting. And I think he and Janette can do great with latin.

I don’t know if Melissa is TCO, could be or not, but I like her more than Kayla and she and Ade are fantastic together.
OTOH, I’d say Jason and Caitlin just can’t get a break…

Oh God Mia Michaels, that egotistical classless bitch will rag on Brandon again I betcha whether he does well or not, for some reason he brings out my motherly side so i’d like to punch her in the face when she starts that crap.

I can’t believe how fast we are flying through this season, down to 7 couples already! So far everyone seems pretty suited to their routine but that means expectations from the judges will be even higher………….should be a good show.

I really like when Mia is the judge.

I would say Brandon and Janette are my favorites.

So do people still think that Kayla is TCO?

Nope.
Over the last couple of weeks it seems obvious to me that Melissa is now TCO. She was featured as a favorite in TV Guide and she gets more praise than any of the other girls from the judges, especially Nigel, plus as you mentioned the routines she has landed haven’t been particularly challenging for her. I should change my overall pick in the pool to her.

Are we to believe that Melissa and Ade drew pas de deux out of a hat?
Like any other couple could have gotten it?

That’s a laughable stretch IMO.

They may be my favorite couple but this is so transparent Scott MacIntyre could see through it.

Melissa? The old ballerina who burps? Ugh. I like her partner Ade better.

Melissa? The old ballerina who burps? Ugh. I like her partner Ade better.

I like Ade better too. I think he makes Melissa look good…… But, the show has never had a ballerina win before so maybe thats why they put her above Ade.

Hmmmm – last week these guys were SO far from the truth, they said Mary didnt scream one time, I think they meant she screamed EVERY time except once? Not counting on them again?

I’m curious with whatever Brandon and Janette do, if Mia will finally be on Brandon’s side, or will she rip him a new one?

Could go either way. Either this is the point where she verbally abuses him in her effort to prove to America that she was right and continues to downgrade him each time she’s on to ensure that he’ll make the bottom 3. Or, she might see that the tide has turned too far against her, and then she’ll start with that “you made me a believer” crap.

I love Janette and Brandon, and I hope they perform really well. I don’t want Brandon to give Mia any chance to be overly critical of his performance.

Over the last couple of weeks it seems obvious to me that Melissa is now TCO.

Melissa is a really fabulous dancer. Her technique is better than most of the other girls. I think the judges have jumped on her bandwagon because she’s come out week after week and done a fantastic job. So, if she’s now the TCO, I’d say it’s because she’s earned it. I suspect she was originally fodder. I was shocked by how good she was, and I was not expecting it from the way they’d treated her up to the top 20 episodes.

I love Janette and Brandon, and I hope they perform really well. I don’t want Brandon to give Mia any chance to be overly critical of his performance.

Ditto. To me, Brandon is one of the best dancers up there this season. Mia seemed to have more of a problem with his perceived personality than his dancing though, so if thats the case, there’s nothing he can do to make her a “believer”.

I look forward to seeing Randi and Evan doing Broadway.

I do not like Mia Michaels.

melissa’s my favorite dancer. it’s funny because i think melissa makes ade look good. i mean, i’m pretty sure ade was stellar during the rumba, but i could NOT take my eyes off of melissa. they are definitely my favorite couple this season.

i also don’t get the kayla love, same for janette. i guess i like rooting for the underdogs (melissa, karla, jeanine)

I can’t decide if i’m angry or amused at how blatant Nigel & Co are. Lets give Janette a latin ballroom, Evan a broadway, Phillip a hip hop, Kayla & Kupono contemporary, and Melissa a Pas de deux, while karla and vitolio get quickstep? I almost don’t know if we could trust some of these spoilers, it is as unfair as I think any fan could have conjured up. Im guessing Caitlin & Jason get a Mandy Moore jazz to top it off lol

gangreen29- Giving Randi and Evan broadway seems pretty obvious too, since that is Evan’s dance form.

Melissa? The old ballerina who burps?

:lol_tb:

Hey, you are making me feel really old!

She’s a disgusting piece of crap. My fast forward on the DVR will come in handy tonight because I have absolutely no desire to hear anything that comes out of her pie hole.

So do people still think that Kayla is TCO? So far, Melissa has had contemporary, jazz, rumba (not exactly a ballroom that is uncomfortably out of her wheelhouse), and now pas de deux. Could they BE more obvious??

The Melissa as TCO theory does have some merit, especially considering a ballerina has just won SYTYCD Canada and I think Austrailia recently and the series do tend to siphon ideas from each other. Honestly, though, I think Ade is TCO, or at least fighting it out with Brandon for top guy. He’s been front and center in every group piece, has the best personality edit, was given a wealth of dances in his wheelhouse, and a technically proficient partner. Mia’s already familiar with him and it’s been speculated that her annoyance at Brandon is an attempt to to weaken Ade’s most direct competition because she favors Ade. (A typical Mia tactic, lolz. I still adore the crazy bitch, even if she did poor Marky wrong last season.) Which is actually fine by me because I really actually adore Ade, second to my sentimental fave Kupono.

I have to say it’s hard to come down on Kayla for being the beneficiary of shenanigans when there have been shenanigans out the wazoo this season. This week, if those spoilers are correct, well, we should at least get some decent stand out pieces.

I think this got buried in the last results show thread, so for those who haven’t seen it here’s a video of Ade and Kayla dancing a piece they choreographed. I think the producers will be chomping at the bit to put these two together eventually. Might save it for the top four, we’ll see.

I think the judges have jumped on her bandwagon because she’s come out week after week and done a fantastic job. So, if she’s now the TCO, I’d say it’s because she’s earned it.

I like Melissa, but have a hard time saying she’s earned it when she hasn’t even been challenged yet. The self proclaimed naughty ballerina has had two technique heavy contemp/jazz pieces which should be a snap for someone with her training and a naughty rhumba. I’m waiting to see if she can keep up with Ade in a hard hitting hip hop or krump.

Since I don’t think Evan started out as top tier fave, I am guessing he and Randi must really be pulling in the votes because they changed their tune on him a bit since the jive. Also, if those spoilers are true, not only are Evan and Rande getting Broadway, which is directly in Evan’s wheelhouse, but Randi’s said her favorite choreographer is guess who? Joey Dowling.

PHillip getting Nappy Tabs hip hop again…well, yeah. Not much else to say.

Sucks to be Karla and Vitolio unless they tapped Jason Gilkison to choreo the Quickstep.

Glad to see that Brandon and Janette are finally getting something in one of their styles. They have been getting the worst selection of dances for their styles. I mean, come on … Fox Trot and Disco. Ugh! I’ve actually felt sorry for them but they keep pulling it off so all is good.

Flove Melissa and Ade. None of her dances have been in her style so can’t see where people think she’s being handed anything. She’s a ballerina so where is giving her Jazz, Rumba and Contemporary a favor?

Good for Evan and Randi. Too bad for Jason and Caitlin, seems they are being thrown under. Don’t care for Kayla, don’t see the greatness.

Phillip gets HH again? How convenient.

She’s a ballerina so where is giving her Jazz, Rumba and Contemporary a favor?

The particular jazz and contemp pieces she was given were choreographed with Melissa and Ade’s technical strengths in mind. All three drew on the whole “sexy” thing as well that Melissa was known for since her audition. She hasn’t been forced to stretch much physically (the rumba would be the easiest of the Latin dances for a person with heavy classical training to pull off) or emmotionally, as all three of her pieces were of the boy meets girl variety.

I was convinced before this season started they wanted a female ballroom dancer to win, but it is possible that they were angling for the female ballerina as well. But after 3 years they must have KNOWN Asuka had no personality, and Janette/Melissa were barely shown at all beyond being used as a token example of their respective styles of dance.

That’s why Kayla’s pre-show edits threw me off. Another female contemporary dancer? (I know Katee didn’t win last year, but she might as well have.) And if, as it now seems, she wasn’t TCO, what the hell was the point of all that? sunchick I like your idea that they wanted to make sure she’d make it far enough to dance with some of the male powerhouses, as she is technically gifted.

And I don’t even know what to say about this week’s spoilers. I mean, sure giving everyone their own styles will make for great television, but the audience will see through whatever credibility the producers had about the show’s fairness.

Karla and Vitolio have overstayed their welcomes of course.

These hardly seem random to me. If they are true then it should be a good show. However… it really makes it difficult for the audience to choose the weakest dance after the dreaded quickstep and unnamed genre.

Nico – the winner of SYTYCD Canada is far from being a ballerina sunchick. The guy is HOT! whew… but the runner-up Allie was a ballerina. Yes a ballerina, Talia, won SYTYCD Australia this year (a broadway guy won in the first year).

Enjoy some Nico http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B2c0xYR It was choreo’d by Blake
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BbzQBD7YvY0

Mia BETTER be nice to Brandon. He’s my favourite and he just has to make Tour.

Melissa comes off ice queen. Unlike Allie, speaking of her.
I think TCO is Evan. Don’t care much for him myself.

Nico – the winner of SYTYCD Canada is far from being a ballerina sunchick.

Ahhh, I got it flip flopped. I thought Allie won and Nico was runner up. But yeah, from what I’ve seen on YouTube…superhot. Didn’t they dance the Stacey Tookey piece to Cookie’s Permanent? *off to search for video*

I think the judges have jumped on her bandwagon because she’s come out week after week and done a fantastic job. So, if she’s now the TCO, I’d say it’s because she’s earned it.

You know I love ya, Spense, but I have to disagree with you on this one. While I do think Melissa has done a great job, there’s really no reason she shouldn’t have. She hasn’t been asked to stretch out of her comfort zone yet. Now, if she goes out there and does the most earth-shattering, spectacular hip-hop routine EVAH or something, I then might think she is fabulous. There’s a big part of me that thinks she’d crash and burn on a hip-hop (or a jive, or a samba, or probably a lot of various other things), which is why she has conveniently not “picked” any of those genres “out of the hat.” I mean seriously, the pot of duh IS a ballet for goodness sake!

ETA: Looking at the list again, it appears that MOST of the dances are one in one of the partners’ styles. Also, didn’t Jeanine and Phillip already do hip-hop? Do we know how credible the source is?

Just another thing from rooting around Youtube, both Kayla and Caitlin seem to be accomplished dancers en pointe, and I’m sure both Karla, Paris and Jeanine have at least some training – yet, of course, they’re never going to dance en pointe on the show, even if they wanted to.

Now I love me some Melissa but we haven’t seen that’s she’s ultimately that much more technically capable than the others yet. Psyched for that pas-de-deux
