"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I hope that did not come out in a weird privilege way. I just mean that there is already an established career path for Jakob`s genre, but not so much for Russell. I adore them both. And I love this show for it coming down to the two of them, such different dancers, but respectful of each other.

Russell!! Oh, he's so beautiful! And he called his boy, Kevin, up on stage. And he thanked his ridiculously cute parents. And was that his girlfriend in the audience rocking the 70's black power 'fro? Awesome. And did you see him hopping around trying to krump on his one good leg? Aww. Russell is love, y'all. I'm totally satisfied with that win.

Sad that the show had to turn into one big clip festival after Russell got hurt.

There were way too many musical performances. Leona Lewis has unfortunate man face, no fashion sense, the song sucked ass and she was pitchy throughout. Why do people keep trying to make her happen on this side of the pond? She'll never be more than a one hit wonder in the US. She needs to go sit down somewhere. Mary J. could sing the phone book and she looked amazing, but the song was a touch mawkish. I did not need to see JLo lip synch, but I give her tremendous snaps for using the SYTYCD girls as her back up dancers. Remember your roots, Fly Girl. Adam Lambert is made of win. Glitter eyeliner, black nail polish, skinny suit and tie, gelled hair and black panty hose tied around his shoulder. And were those spats? Work! Love the song.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I was thinking that surely troupes are falling all over themselves to give Jakob jobs, but I don't really know what professional krumpers do.

Really, I would have been happy with any of the top 4 winning, but the thing that I have loved about Russell all season is how clear the joy of dance is when he performs. That and his beautiful quality of movement., but all four of them have that in different ways.

Speaking of eyeliner on guys, did you see Jakob in the opening number? Guh!!! I was drooling.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Did Leona Lewis' song have any rhythm to it? I thought that had to be the worst ballad I have heard in awhile. As if I need more excuses not to be interested in "Avatar", another one pops up without me looking for it.

I didn't even finish Lopez' song. I thought the first few seconds were just so bad.

See, I thought JLo looked gorgeous with that big old, bedazzled booty. And the Fly Girl can still move it, move it. Sadly, she can't nor could she ever sing. And that little ditty she performed is not a song. Just bleating the word Loubitin over and over does not a song make. She looked good, though. That's something.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I'm pretty sure Leona Lewis' song was the worst song I have ever heard. Did Cameron write that too?

I did peep that, and I concur that Jakob was drool worthy in that piece. I wish that Jakob would get with Lambert and form the sparkliest, most extravagantly talented couple ever. They might spontaneously combust from all the pretty and the fabulous.

I did not listen to any of the music and this made me laugh out loud.

Yes, please.

Last night the following thought came into my head and I can't get it out: "FP looks like Suzanne Sommers when she fake smiles."
