CRISTINA with Pasha in a paso doble (!!)
"ira deorum sanctus"
loveeeee paso. and sadly, it's not very well known. (unless you're a ballroom dancer)
wow. great. so strong! i feel like she needed more of a C shape (hips thrust forward) but she lucked out because she's already a ballroom/salsa dancer. doesn't mean much though, because salsa is different than paso.
ADECHIKE with Allison in a Mandy Moore (!) contemporary (!)
"listen to your heart"
he's sooooo good! he made that look easy! but it was hard to concentrate on the dance when i was focusing so much on whether he was smiling and bringing out the emotion. i do love his smile though. still needs to work on being consistent with that though. he needs to look like he's ENJOYING it (i know he is, but he has a hard time showing it)
ALEX with Lauren in a Tyce broadway
"summertime"
oh. my. gosh. he's brilliant. and can i say, i think lauren is brilliant too. soooo good. and fosse is not easy. so many sharp movements and nuances. i think he performed that really well though. and made it look easy with his sharp kicks and leaps, etc.
ASHLEY with Mark in a Travis contemporary (!!)
"wonderful"
mark is SO ATTRACTIVE. oh wait, i'm supposed to be critiquing ashley huh. uhm, right. liked it, and she's got great technique, beautiful extensions. i can't say that i saw the story really come out though, and maybe i'll have to agree with nigel and say it's due to travis' choreography (which i loved, btw, but maybe it wasn't enough).
BILLY with Comfort in a lil c krump.
"so u think u can krump"
oh goodness...this might just be a mess...billy can't krump!? alright, so not a disaster per se, but he's still a white boy! i can't take it seriously! good thing he can act though. glad he could get all the steps. it's like watching my brother dance hip hop (which he does very well) but he's still a white boy. doesn't matter if he's BRILLIANT in this, he's still a white boy. doesn't change a thing. a nice effort though.
ROBERT with Anya in an argentine tango (!)
"libertango"
Robert is SOOOO attractive! he's kind of a like a darker version of a young elvis. oooh. me likey. ohmygoshheissosexy. and yes i just said that. the steps could've been a little bit smoother, but he was GREAT. hands needed some work too, but honestly, that doesn't really matter because he could've fooled me into thinking he was an actual ballroom dancer.
MELINDA with ade in a stacey tookey contemporary
"squander"
SO much better than last week. i think she needs to work on her transitions though, dancing through them. it helps that she has some other dance genres behind her. i'm not sure how long she's gonna last on the show however...seems a little fake and like she's trying too hard to prove that she is a dancer and an entertainer.
JOSE with Kathryn in a bollywood
oh boy. like i said before with billy, jose and bollywood? disaster in the making...he actually surprised me. got the movements down, although he did look a little worried and kinda kept glancing at kathryn throughout. it was cute though.
LAUREN with Dominic in a lyrical hip hop
"if i were a boy"
whoa. that was way good. she hit EVERYTHING. i can't say i saw the emotion and the feeling come out as well as it could have but it was pretty dang good. oh dominic, your love for cat is far too apparent sometimes. but thanks for the laughs.
KENT with Courtney in a Tyce jazz
"amy amy amy"
he is so precious! he is so good at getting into character! you wouldn't think he was just 18 when he dances! favorite! of all time. yup. decided. he's got amazing technique though.
i'm not sure who will be in the bottom. i honestly think that the girls will get voted off first though, leaving the boys behind. i think cristina danced the paso extremely well, probably the best of the night, but she's not my favorite. nor is ashley. kent is my favorite though.
