So You Think You Can Dance – Top 12

This week the fluff is gone to be replaced with a LOT of hard work. Each couple danced twice and danced to win, because only the top 10 couples go on to dance on the tour.

Melissa & Ade – Disco
This was just exceptional. Fun, fast, flirty, everything the disco is about.

Kayla & Kupono – Contemporary
This numbers gave me chills and left me speechless. The intensity coming off of these two dancers was just mind blowing.

Caitlin & Jason – Foxtrot
This dance just oozed sophistication and class, the basic rise and fall was beautiful and the lifts were lovely.

Jeanine & Philip – Russian Folk
I was disappointed by this number. Folk dancing is a very simple style of dance, but even so there really wasn’t a lot of content to this dance.


Randi & Evan – Hip Hop
NappyTabz are great, there’s always such a joy to their choreography and this weeks routine definitely kept the joy high. I loved the moved that had Evan looping Randi up and over and all around.

Janette & Brandon – Argentine Tango
The Argentine Tango was born in the brothels, so this really is a dance that is all about sex and the man dominating the woman. Brandon captured that intensity, so it seemed that he was just molding Janette to his will.

Melissa & Ade – Waltz
I had mixed feeling about this dance. Melissa was beautiful, as any ballerina hast to be, but Ade looked stiff and uncomfortable unless he was doing a lift.

Kayla & Kupono – Broadway
So much bang packed into such an amazing package.

Caitlin & Jason – Lyrical Jazz
Heavenly! Yes, I went for the pun, but there was a very ethereal quality about it that was so lovely.

Jeanine & Philip – Jive
The pace was good, the choreography was amazing, but the connection between the dancers was missing.

Randi & Evan – Samba
Season 3 contestants Anya and Pasha made this number hot, but Randi and Evan failed to make it spicy.

Janette & Brandon – Jazz
Such a fun number! There was an almost mod/Fosse style to the piece that was so charming!
