Celebrity Today

We are just a couple of weeks from the finale in this season of So You Think You Can Dance, and we have the top eight remaining in the competition dancing for the votes of America. Tonight, we will cut one more guy and one more girl from the show and then we hit the semi-finals. Your votes do mean everything now. This week, we have Toni Basil joining Nigel and Mary. As for partners, this week the boys picked their partners out of the hat, and the girls picked their styles. Let’s talk about the performances.

Couples

Will & Courtney: I fell in love with the DJ by Che’ Nelle | Like You’ll never see me again by Alicia Keys

This week, Will was first up, and he chose Courtney out of the hat. She picked up the samba and hip-hop for their routines, and they had to get Will more used to moving his hips the ways that are needed for this performance. As usual, Courtney looks amazing in another revealing costume, and these two hit the stage with a hot and fun routine! These two were hot together. The judges also loved them. Their second performance was a slow hip hop routine, and it was amazing. I definitely enjoyed it. The judges also loved it. The performance made them feel things, and that is something I can agree on.

Twitch & Katee: Mercy by Duffy | Sweet Georgia Brown

A little known fact is that these two knew each other before this season, and now they are partnered this week on a contemporary and Broadway performance. Mia Michaels works with them on the contemporary performance. A performance that was right on with passion and heat, and we see a full on kiss between the two. The performance made it hard to look at technique. Their second dance was a Broadway performance, and these look cute in rehearsals together. It was obvious they knew each other. The performance was wonderful, and these two are the best this season. Nigel reminds us that Twitch is the least trained dancer in the competition, and he is spot on. As for Katee, I think she might win this whole competition.

Mark & Comfort:Party People by Fergie feat. Nelly | Lady Luck by Brian Setzer Orchestra

Comfort has been hanging on week after week. Last week, she got lucky with Jessica having to leave the competition. I honestly think she should have left last week. This week she is partnering Mark in a hip hop and foxtrot routine. In their hip hop routine, Mark was surprisingly well, and so was Comfort. However, Nigel did comment on Comfort’s solo, and how she is must better when she is choreographed. Their second performance was a foxtrot, and in rehearsals they looked to be struggling. Their performance didn’t really wow me though. It didn’t impress the judges either. Could this finally be the end of Comfort’s luck on this show? Could be.

Joshua & Chelsie:A Los Amigos Forever Tango | Everlasting Love by Gloria Estefan

Our last couple is of course Chelsie and Joshua, and they are set to perform an Argentine Tango and a disco routine. For the tango, we see them choreographed by season two contestant Dimitri. They had great choreography, and they did great technically and chemistry wise.For the last performance of the night, these two took the stage with a fun and sassy disco routine that I enjoyed. The judges enjoyed it as well. These two were a good match.

Solos

Comfort:I Got This Down by Similan Mobile Disco
Will:Get Up Offa That Thing by James Brown
Katee: Taking Chances by Celine Dion
Mark:Creator by Santagold
Chelsie:Damaged by Danity Kane
Joshua:Shawty Get Loose by Lil Mama
Courtney: Where I Stood by Missy Higgins
Twitch: Go To Work by Kay L

What we are seeing this week is the dancers stand up and work for towards the finale and the win of the competition. I think we’re starting to see who might win. My picks right now are Will, Twitch and Katee. These three stand out the most to me. Who do you think will win this season?
