SYTYCD10- Mac’s Top 6 Power List

This is an almost impossibility when you get down this low, to try and pick which dancers are not making it into the finale? Who did America vote the most for?

Sadly, the reality is that Hayley and Fik-Shun both gave their fanbases a wake-up call. It was their first time being in the bottom, each, and it’s a safe bet that they’ve both made the finale. That means that either Amy or Jasmine, and either Aaron or Paul will be going home. Here are my thoughts:

The Boys:
3) Paul
My gut instinct says that Aaron is in the finale. My gut feeling is that Aaron’s arc, including the fact that he wasn’t part of the original top 20, is more endearing to his fans than Paul’s arc, trying to win a second SYTYCD competition, and because of that, Aaron will edge out Paul. There is a 50% chance I’m wrong here, and Aaron goes home instead.

2) Aaron
I just think he has more fans, who want to see the winner of the show be someone who wasn’t even chosen for the show in the first place. Aaron is the ultimate underdog. Paul came into this with a win on his record. They are literally night and day.

1) Fik-Shun
A bottom placement last week SHOULD trigger more votes for him. Of course, there is a chance that all three fanbases voted hard last week, and again this week, and that Fik-Shun just simply has a smaller fanbase. That is entirely possible. I don’t think Fik-Shun is 100% safe, I just think he has the benefit of his fans knowing he’s in danger.

The Girls:
3) Amy
This is so hard, because I have to pick one. I’m giving Jasmine the edge over Amy, because her body of work over the season is just stronger. I always believed that in the earlier weeks, Amy was riding Fik-Shun’s coattails. She’s done a good job of showing that she is her own dancer, going into the Top 10, but we are getting down to finale time, and I just think that the finale should be Jasmine and Hayley, based on everything we’ve seen this season.

2) Jasmine
I’m a little worried that Jasmine’s dance last week wasn’t as “hyped” as Amy’s dance was. Then again, Jasmine got to dance with Twitch, so that should negate the whole thing. This is a very close week, and I could be completely wrong about my predictions.

1) Hayley
I think Hayley is possibly more safe than Fik-Shun. Here’s why: She was the LAST girl to hit the bottom. Statistically, she is the strongest girl, because she was the last one who had never hit the bottom. Amy and Jasmine had both already hit the bottom, and much earlier in the season. Assuming her fanbase watched last week, Hayley’s fans should be able to keep her alive this week. I think it’s harder to measure the guys, when two of the three remaining guys have never been in the bottom, but Hayley doesn’t have the same problem. I think she’s a safe bet for the finale. Either Jasmine or Amy will go home.

What are your thoughts? I think regardless, this is an amazing top 6. I think everyone deserves to be here. I’m happy they didn’t force Jenna into the top 6, just to prove a point to America.
