She looked like she could take him in a fight, totally contrary to the choreography!
Totally--I had issues with that choreo, or the character/acting, or something, possibly because I've gotten so used to getting a "story" from the stuff we see, and some of it was so realistically acted with the fighting between them and then seconds later she'd be doing very non-fighty dancing moves, and it was too fast a switch for me. Hmph.
I liked Cristina's dance for her life, not so much because it was great dancing, but because she did seem...more herself. It was like "Oh yeah, that's why they liked her"
Edit: Also, see Natter, but--in the Usher thing, ita was TOTALLY hiding out in that pack of dancer girls! Check it! She must be his secret bodyguard who's masquerading as a dancer in order to protect him even while he's on stage.
I guess of those three I would have gotten rid of Alexie too. Oh well. I look forward to actually seeing the show next week.
I think Tyce choreographed it.
I was trying to guess who choreographed it -- it was someone new. But my guesses were Tyce, but with Sonya moves (I don't think she does group dances).
Seiously? Cheerleader wasn`t even in danger? I voted for Alex this week. Am I going to need to vote for everyone but cheerleader every week? She still never heard what they were saying to her, no way she improves it.
I am sorry to see Alexie go. I would rather have seen Melinda go. But how cute was traumatized little Kent? He`s going to cry at every elim. This is actually kind of an emotional little group we`ve got here. Is it going to be live every week? I don`t like it live. A good editor is not a bad thing.
if anyone wants to see Baryschnicov do the "That's Life" dance years ago, go here:

I LOVE that whole Tharp Sinatra song cycle. He was perfection in it.
Facebook SYTYCD page just linked to an interview with Nigel--he said they COULD end up with all boys at the end, in this format (yay!) and that he decided he didn't like the All Stars running offstage as soon as the song was over, so that'll change next week.
I'm sad that Alexie was eliminated. She was my favorite girl. I'm actually kind of mad at NappyTabs for her elimination. That routine was so incredibly lame. She danced it cute and sweet because the music, storyline and routine were cute and sweet.
But she also didn't blow me away in her solo. I just felt horrible for her - to try out so many times and then be the first to go.
Yes, she could have brought it in the solo, but it was severely lacking.
