That wasn't too hip hop but it was interesting.

Danny is my favorite guy.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm totally all set with the drama over Cedric, and like what he said about if you want to be a dancer, you really have to study. But please, get him out tomorrow!

I liked the movements, and the music, too. I wouldn't have called it hip hop, but it was a neat dance.

I don't know hiphop from nada, but I actually liked that by the time it was done. Anya really amazed me, she seemed to pick it up so quick. I do think it was amazing choreography, too.

Anya is underestimating herself. She really does pick up the new tricks well. But, I thought Danny stole the routine. maybe it's the height thing.

I have to agree with Nigel. Danny did a good job, but he's got to let go of that hesitation/fluidity problem that the classically trained dancers seem to run into. Sharp, abrupt continuous movement seems to stymie them.

And I didn't really see as much of him in this routine, I spent as much time or more watching Anya.

I hope that they do well with the rumba because I love the rumba. It's fun and sexy.

Well, that was really pretty but not a ton of what I'd call rumba.

Very nice rumba! I think Sabra had the hip action really working for her. Dominic, not so much, but he did a good job partnering.

eta: I bow to the expert in how rumba-like it was. I just liked the choreography.

It didn't look like any Rumba I've ever seen before. But it was cool.
