Sorry, Captain. I'm real sorry. I shoulda kept better care of her. Usually she lets me know when something's wrong. Maybe she did, I just wasn't paying attention...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I meant to post here about that very thing! Good times.

It seems pretty unlikely to me that someone would (successfully) try out for SYTYCD without any undergarments on, but anyway: [link]

Yeah, I noticed that while watching, and it's pretty clearly flesh-colored underpants (probably some dance-garment, not actually panties). I mean, really.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Dancers don't always wear panties, but they usually have a dance garment of some type! But I thought it was clear that the Janet Jackson incident was a case of JT tearing away something which had been rigged to rip off partially, but instead somehow got the whole thing. Like, an actual wardrobe malfunction.

Is the guy from the Miami ballet just going straight to Vegas, or will he have to audition again, do you think?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I think Mary Murphy has been hitting the New Orleans spirit a little too hard.

Yeah, but there were some very nice dancers tonight. Though obviously a few that I was like "Gah, why are we watching this one?" Didn't really miss Nigel at all, that's for sure. I'm a little worried about Utah next week, though. Goodness that looks like a lot of people!

There really were.

How many people normally go to Vegas? They said 152 this time, I think.

Hey, did you see that they are rerunning ANTM on Fridays again?

Jakob Karr!! Oh, how I adore that kid. He is a monster. I just love him.

It would seem that the show did well in the south. 152 in Vegas? They're going to outgrow the hotel soon.

I would highly doubt that girl in the clip was pantyless. As much as young contemporary dancers love the HMV, they don't dare go commando.

Jakob Karr!! For real. I think I might love him the most thus far.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I was quite ticked off at Shankman when he said that the performing arts pairs dancer should go to choreography, and Mary and Lil C were correct in sending her straight to Vegas. If they can send b-boys straight to Vegas on the strength of their stunts without looking at how they work with a partner at all, they definitely did not need to see how she worked with "another" partner. That was ridiculous on his part.

Loved some of those male dancers last night!! The guy in the green tank who had those amazing midair splits (wish we had seen more of his audition!) is one I'm hoping they feature more in Vegas.
