SYTYCD Top8

I think the contemporary by Melissa and Ade, choreographed by Tyce Diorio, was the best of the night.  Unfortunately, I absolutely felt manipulated by the back story of the dance.  Can you say that you hated the "Breast Cancer Dance"?  I wished they just let the audience make their own interpretation of the dance.

The main problem with this season is the ballroom and latin dances have been almost uniformly subpar.  I am not all that familiar with ballroom, but even to my inexperienced eyes, Ade had no hip action in his cha cha, and Brandon was flatfooted throughout his waltz.

The results show was the 100th episode and featured Katie Holmes in a broadway tribute, and a bunch of past season dances.  I wasn't particularly impressed by Katie Holmes's dancing or singing.  But I enjoyed the Ramalama (Bang Bang) group piece featuring dancers from season 2.  Wade Robson, the choreographer, danced in this piece too!
