I know! Not how I expected that to go at all. The moment they read Jessie's vote it was all over.
Also I see that the Jeffery Dean Morgan look alike won Design Star. Nice.
No power in the 'verse can stop me.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Racialicious (a site that I can be ambivalent about sometimes) has a roundtable discussing Vogue Evolution on ABDC. They are not happy about how VE was treated:

Because books.

I love Antonio like my luggage, but I wouldn't go quite that far! I think Antonio's show is going to be fun, though.
And Dan was good, but I think he was too much of a David Bromstead copy to give him a show.

Okay, you're not wrong Amy. But he makes me think of JDM every time he's on screen, and that's good enough for me to like him.

Oh yeah, he's got that same rough, burly, real!guy vibe.
He cracked me up, and you could tell Candice especially got a huge kick out of him.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I know! Not how I expected that to go at all.
Even after Jordan was so annoyingly apologetic to Kevin, I thought she had probably won when Natalie was giving her speech about how she was loyal to Jessie and Ronnie and Chima. Too many rolling eyes from the jury on the last two names, plus she didn't back down from the lie about being 18.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The thing about being 18 was so incredibly stupid -- she was drinking alcohol in the house! On TV! It would have been one thing if if just hadn't come up again after that first day, but they kept talking about it! People on Big Brother are stupid.

Plus then she got engaged!

18 year olds get engaged!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Hell, 18 year olds get married! <cough>
I think that's an interesting take on VE. There definitely were some issues with how they were treated (although I think for the record there's less homophobia on ABDC than SYTYCD) but overall I was pleased to see them on there and generally successful.
