SYTYCD WEEK 5: DE JA VU!!!!!


That is right for the second straight week this contest sent home a dancer who was injured and could not compete. I personally think that this sucks, because none of the dancers in the bottom three had to earn their spots for next week. As you all remember last week Alex Wong had to leave, because of a lacerated Achilles tendon and this week Ashley Galvan had to leave too. However, in Ashley’s case we have no idea what her medical reason was for leaving only that the reason was medical.

Now that Ashley is gone there is only one girl left in the competition and five guys, which is really interesting. Fortunately for Lauren she is an off the chain dancer with serious skills and a great stage presence. Of the five boys that are left I think the only one she cannot beat right now is Kent, who is an awesome dancer, crowd Fav, and adored by the judges. Billy, Robert, Jose, and Adechike are the ones that I think have something to worry about. I also think that if Ashley had not left that Jose would have went home this week.

However, giving credit where credit is due I have to say that all of the dancers who competed this past week had great performances. The only dancer who garnered any criticism was Jose for his Broadway number choreographed by Joey Dowling, and performed with Courtney. The judges were unanimous in their critique that Jose’s lack of training was very evident in the routine and that it did not allow his personality to show though as well. I have to tell you though that is B-Boy routine with Dominic was wild though I loved it.

I have to tell you though that my absolute favorite routine of the week was a routine danced by Robert and Allison, and was choreographed by Travis Walls. The routine was about Travis and his mother and the struggle they are dealing with regarding his mother’s health. The music for this routine was “Fix You” by Coldplay one of my favorite bands and was an appropriate song for the dance. The judges were so awe-struck by the power of this routine that it got standing O from them and Mia Michaels had her cry.

On the night of the results show, the audience and the TV viewers got a great treat. An artist by the name of Christina Perri performed her new hit song “Jar of Hearts”, and the song is very new too. This virtually unknown artist was waitressing in a local L.A. diner just a few weeks ago, when she met choreographer Stacy Tookey and introduced her to her song. To say the least after Stacy used her song in one of the routines she choreographed the song went viral overnight and now Christina Perri is a household name.

I am sorry this post is late, but I do hope you enjoy this post and the new show, which will be airing tomorrow night. I also highly recommend that you take a minute to check out the song “Jar of Hearts” I think you will really like it. Let us just hope that tragedy does not strike again this week and that the one who is cut actually earns it. I would really be interested in your feedback about both the show and the new song because I may write about it at Simple Man Music. Thanks for visiting Simple Man Entertainment and CIAO4NOW!!!!!
