So You Think You Can Dance: Top 6 Performance Recap
[FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]As the show opens, Cat Deely introduces the final 6 competitors: Courtney, Chelsea, Katee, Joshua, Twitch and Mark.[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]Mark and Chelsea are up first with a Viennese Waltz. They dance to [I]The Time of My Life[/I] by David Cook. They looked beautiful dancing even though I really hate waltzes. Adam Shankman says it was really beautiful and Mark’s rise and fall was the best he’s seen out of the males on this season. Nigel says “it was romantic.”[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]Chelsea performs her solo next. She dances to [I]When I Grow Up[/I] by the Pussycat Dolls. I hate this song, but Chelsea sure is sexy! She does a great job.[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]Twitch is up next with his solo. He dances a hip-hop routine to Midas Touch by Midnight Star. He performs in his signature glasses and a grill! After Twitch is done and walks over to Cat Deely, she tries on his glasses and Nigel tells her to put the grill in too. She says “ok, might as well. Hand them over, spit and all,” and then she actually puts them in her mouth! EWWWW![/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]Up next are Katee and Joshua with a contemporary piece. They dance to [I]All By Myself [/I]by Celine Dion. They do a lot of really amazing lifts. At one point, Katee does a split leap into Joshua’s arms which was done perfectly. Adam points out that Paula Abdul is in the audience and that she is the one that gave him his start. He says to both Katee and Joshua, “you guys just became the holy trinity of So You Think You Can Dance.” Mary says it was so filled with passion and that she sees both Katee and Joshua in the finale, and then she screams. Nigel points out that Gillian Lynne (choreographer for CATS) is in the audience. Nigel tells Joshua that it is outrageous that he has no formal training and that he “delivered brilliantly.”[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]Twitch and Chelsea are up next with the mambo. In practice Chelsea gets her face stuck in the crotch of Twitch’s pants. They dance to [I]Ahora Me Toca a Mi [/I]by Victor Manuelle. Chelsea is whipping around so fast that things are flying off of her. They look great but they messed up on a trick. None of the judges say a single thing about the mistake. Adam says “I’m telling you Chels, you were on fire!” He also says to her that he has yet to see anything she can’t do. Adam tells Twitch that he needed to be a little bit more animal because Chelsea was. Mary says Chelsea is a firecracker and tells her “ you are so fabulous when you get in the Latin style that no one can touch you.” I have to say, I agree with Mary; Chelsea is just smokin’ hot! Mary also tells Twitch that she is very proud of him. Nigel says they did great.[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]Katee is up next with her solo. She performs to Maroon 5, [I]Can’t Stop[/I]. She finally did something a little bit different in her solo, but it was still kind of boring to me. Somewhat like Comfort, Katee is a great dancer when given choreography, but her solos always have the same boring moves.[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]Joshua performs his solo next. He dances a hip-hop routine to [I]Like That [/I]by Memphis Black. I think Joshua is a way better dancer and far more entertaining than Twitch is. [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]Courtney and Mark are up next with a jazz piece to [I]The Garden[/I] by Mirah. Courtney is wearing a corset and underwear. Needless to say, she looks hot. The routine was really good and really funky; I loved it! I PREDICT Mark will stay for another week. (sorry for the lame RW joke, hehe) Adam says “that was sick!” Mary says “that’s a weird love story going on; I can tell you that. And I loved it!” Nigel said the dance personified the choreographer, but last time I checked, the choreographer was already human. I could be wrong though.[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]Katee and Joshua are up next with the Paso doble. They perform to Filet by Le Reve (original soundtrack). Katee looks absolutely gorgeous and Joshua looks pretty good himself with his shirt off! The entire dance was incredibly intense and they did an amazing job. You could feel the tension in the air. Adam says “Joshua, I feel like you’re making me believe in the impossible” because Joshua shouldn’t be able to do all of this without any formal training. I thought at one point, at the end of auditions, Joshua had said he had a little bit of ballet training. Oh well. Adam says to Katee that he can’t wait for her to see this dance on TV because she did such an amazing job. He loved it. Mary says, in a creepy, calm voice, “when Joshua and Katee are together, True Magic happens.” Then she screams. Nigel tells them it was fabulous, which is the only other adjective he knows beyond fantastic. Nigel also says to Joshua that if he continues to dance like that, he’s going to steal the show.[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]Courtney performs her solo to [I]Rock Your Soul[/I] by Elisa. She has great technique and great spins, but it was boring.[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]Next up is Mark with his solo. He dances to [I]Bum Like You[/I] by Robyn. It’s quirky, of course, and very good. He takes his shirt halfway off towards the end. He is such a cutie![/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana][SIZE=2]And finally, Twitch and Chelsea are up next with a hip-hop routine to [I]Control[/I] by the Vitamin String Quartet. It is a very cute and artistic routine. Adam says “thank you for making me so happy.” Mary says “Twitch, you’ve been absolutely stellar; outstanding.” Nigel says “you can watch this show even if you don’t give a damn about dancing.”[/SIZE][/FONT]

Good job KT! :)
[quote=OtherPplsDrama;23676]Good job KT! :)[/quote] I haven't seen a episode yet but hey I agree with OPD you deserve props for the recap. Good Job!

Good Job![/quote] Thanks Golden! You should start watching! Nigel is right, this is not just a show for people who like dancing... it's really, very entertaining!
Good job, KT. LAst night was amazing. For me everything was great. Every dance was good and all dancers really brought it. Which leads me to think that tonight, the eliminations will come down to popularity. I see Courtney and Mark going. I love all of them so it is hard to choose, but I believe Chelsie and Katee have been a bit better than Courtney through the competition and Josh has been better than both Twitch and Mark. Twitch and Mark is a confusing situation. Mark stayed over Will last night so it is making me think he still has a shot, but I think that Twitch has been greater throughout the competition and more memorable.

I'm not so sure that Mark deserves to go home in my opinion (that [I]may[/I] very well be biased). I feel like he is a better dancer than Twitch, but I do have to admit that Twitch has impressed me more because of where he has come from. Twitch doesn't have the formal training in classical styles like Mark does, which makes everything he's done even more impressive. But then I look at Joshua who doesn't have that formal training either, and Joshua is miles ahead of Twitch. I'm almost positive that Courtney is going home though.

By no means is he a bad dancer, and he has a very different and unique style of dancing that makes him stand out. But with all the training he has had I expect a lot more out of him than what we are getting. Where as Twitch, only had hip-hop experience and has done consistently well in whatever he has done. That's why he deserves to stay. Mark has all this training, yet he still can't outshine two guys who have had no experience in dances that he has been trained in. Courtney is going home. It is kind of sad, but I want Chelsie and Katee there, they have done just as good. Is it just me or does Courtney look like a spitting image of KellyAnne?

But that's a matter of opinion. I can't help but compare Twitch and Joshua because they're both hip hop dancers who haven't had any formal training. Joshua is just amazing at everything he does. Because of that, I don't think having Twitch in the finale brings anything to the competition. We already have one of him; why not bring something different to the finale?
Noooooooo! I can't believe Chelsie is gone :( She was amazing! [B]EDIT:[/B] Noooooooo! Mark is gone now too! How can I go on without my two favorites! This is a very bad night for me... :(
Are you kidding me!!!!!!! Chelsie? Who has done amazing this whole competition. Way better than Courtney. I cannot believe people voted for Courtney over her. I'm sorry but that is way worse than when Will went home. What terrible voters we have.

I agree. I do think Chelsie was better than Katee. Katee got boring and repetitive and was given the same dances all the time. At least Chelsie was given a variety of dances to work with and showed that she could pull it off. Even if she wouldn't have won, she deserved a final four spot. No doubt. I hope Courtney loses bigtime in the finals and looks like a fool up against the other three. Grrr.

It's not the first time, I suppose...
I am just upset. I like Courtney, but her beating Chelsie is ridiculous. It is very unfair. MArk getting eliminated wasn't a big shock either. Upsetting night.
Excellent Job KT!!! Go Josh and Katee!

KT----Did you hear my cry all the way over there?!?! Can't believe it was Chelsie!! :( I really can't believe Courtney has made it this far.....but ya know, good for her. (and yes, she reminds me of KellyAnn as well!) Katee and Josh ALL the WAY! The finale will be interesting! PS....America, get yer heads outta yer you know where and don't let me down again!

Chelsie deserved it more in my opinion, even though COurtney does too, and thank you finally somebody agrees with me. She looks like a spitting image of KellyAnne just a bit cuter. The finale will be interesting. It is a toss-up as to who will win. Josh and Katee are both up in the air and either of them could win. And for all we know, this Courtney bandwagon could even make her win.
I can't believe Chelsea got sent home either. But I agree that girl does resemble Kelly Ann
[quote=LilysMom;23713]Excellent Job KT!!! [/quote] Thanks LM! [quote=OtherPplsDrama;23731]KT----Did you hear my cry all the way over there?!?!

I do like Courtney, and she has gotten better, but Chelsie was just amazing. IT"S NOT FAIR!!!
[QUOTE=killer_tofu;23940] IT"S NOT FAIR!!![/QUOTE] Agreed!
