Well, America got it right again this week...Susan got the boot. I think she and Tony may have been a bit relieved about it, too - the commuting from LA to New York seemed to really be taking a toll on their dancing. Plus, Susan seemed to get more and more emotional during the lead-ins each week...I think this will take a much-needed load off her shoulders.
Surprise, surprise...the group paso gets the encore. Not that we couldn't have guessed or anything, from the dancers all being in their group dance costumes and the judges absolutely villifying the group cha cha last night. Something that was surprising, though - they really did pick their own teams. And Susan really did do some not-so-smart picking...shocked that she got the first pick and DIDN'T pick Brooke and Derek. Seemed like it would have been a no-brainer...but hey, I'm not Susan, so I really have no clue.
I absolutely LOVED Dave Scott's performance tonight! Up until now, I haven't been really wowed by any of the Macy Stars of Dance performances - but this one blew me outta the water. The subtlety and detail of some of his moves is just phenomenal - the man can take the tiniest movement and make it visible to an entire ballroom. And the showmanship! Spectacular
Dance Center...dumb, obnoxious, and a waste of time.
Oh Lionel Ritchie...he was actually my very first crush at age 3! :lol: Love the new song, loved Edyta & Alec's rumba. I had never seen the lift they did at the end before...and even though I find a lot of lifts to be over-the-top and corny, I liked this one. The group jive/cha-cha (I couldn't really tell what it is) was fun...they finally put Cheryl in a flattering outfit! And holy hair, Maks barely has any! Big departure from the long Fabio locks he used to sport back in his competition days!
Did You Notice...?
*Lionel fidgeting with something in his pocket at the beginning of "Good Morning"?
*Lacey's aggressive jab at Len: "I'll go barefoot all over your face, Len!" She said it with such conviction...yikes! :shock:
