Goodbye to Matt and Kourtni on SYTYCD!

Everyone knew atleast 2 of the couples that would be in bottom 3 couples: Matt and Kourtni, and Thayne and Comfort. And.....Everyone was right! But who would be the third? I for one had no idea! I think that spot could have belonged to anyone! All the couples seem to be loved pretty much equally! The final couple in the bottom though was Courtney and Gev! Quite shocking to me! They got some pretty good comments from the judges last night!

So the first to dance a solo was Kourtni! I liked her solo, but seemed a little like the same old thing she does every solo, but to a different song. No doubt, she is talented though! I love her long legs!

Next to dance was Matt! I love Matt! I love the way he dances and I have never seen anyone dance quite like him! It's unique and i like that! He seems like a much better solo dancer though, from what I have seen on the show.

Third was Courtney. She does some funky side leaps! A lot like Miss Lauren Gottlieb! Compared to how Jaimie and Shauna do them....I perfer how Shauna and Jaimie do them. And when Courtney did her fouttes (i have NO idea how to spell it, but the word I'm thinking of is pronounce like Fwa-Taes) and they seemed a bit stiff to me! The whole dance seemed a little stiff and like she could snap at any moment!...But still pretty good!

Fourth to dance was Gev (also taught at Jenna's studio). I have never really LOVED him. He's never really done anything to make me want to vote for him. And after watching his audition, I didn't really like his audition either. When someone says "breaker" i think of Dominic last year ( I have never seen a "breaker or b-boy do want Dom did/does so I'm always kinda disappointed!) and Gev never really did it for me. Well. Tonight, during his solo he did it! OMGGGGGGG! One of the best solo's on the show ever! So entertaining! It was one of the solo's that i rarely rewind when it's done and re-watch it another 50 times and it never gets old! That little shaking on the ground thing made me laugh and that's what I've been wanting when i say something to just EXPLODE and WOW! It was amazing! I will add the link to it as soon as people get it up on youtube!

Fifth and final girl, was Comfort! I never really enjoy her solo's. Nothing really amazes me when she does them! I believe she is a good hip hopper though, I just need her to prove it to me!

Final dancer: Thayne. Jenna loved his solo, but as usually it was just ok for me! It makes me sad because i really really want him to just do something WOWZA-ish (like Gev just did!) and just totally blow me away. I think because he's never done anything like that America just can't fall in love with his fantastic personality!


So who would be going home? Courtney was safe first. Up against Comfort and Kourtni ...Comfort was safe and Kourtni will be going home... Now who of the guys? Of course, after his amazing solo, Gev was safe! Matt and Thayne, so cute, i love them both, they've just had a rough time on the show! Matt was sent home. Thayne and Comfort, Courtney and Gev will advance on to the top 12! Goodbye to Kourtni and Matt. I will miss you on the show...

Loves,
Brooke

Goodbye to Chris and Chelsea on SYTYCD.

Everyone who likes SYTYCD hates Thursdays. At least i do, and all the dancers on the show. After voting for like 2 hours with five phones, my sister and I put them down when the lines closed at 11pm on Wednesdays. Now all we could do was wait...

We had been voting for Thayne, who had once been a teacher at Jenna's dance studio before dancing with Odyssey, I believe (i might have some of my facts wrong though, so don't kill me if I'm wrong). Jenna had taken some classes last year from him during the summer camp and she loved it. So automatically we had him and Chelsie H. as early favorites.

Back to last night though. The dancers in the bottom three had all been there before (which i think is sad because some of them did well!). The couples in the bottom consisted of: Matt and Kourtni, Thayne and Chelsea, and Chris and comfort. All of the cutest little guys on the show. Chelsea's solo was first. I liked it. Definitely not anything special though... I don't think the repeated fan kicks and repeated stags and double stag leaps suited the song though really. Maybe if the song had repeated words in it, than i could understand...After Chelsea stepped off the stage it was Thayne's turn. As usual i feel he did a respectable job. Which could indeed be the problem with him! During the show I haven't seen him do anything that blew me away other than his audition solo and his top 20 dance. Time for Miss Comfort's solo. Eh. That's really all i must say to that. Her solo was ehhh. I have seen hip hop solos that are much better than that...Chris. Eh to his solo as well. It was a bit of a mess actually. That pirouette he did was odd. His shoulders were up and his arms were bent. If it was supposed to be like that he should've made it more distinct because what he did confused me. Kourtni's solo was ok. I think she is a much better solo dancer definitely. When i was watching her i was thinking it would suck if she got pared with Thayne who is like 5 inches shorter than her. It wouldn't be fair at all! Her solo was purty darn good though. I like the song quite a bit! Matt's solo was AMAZING! So good! I really think that saved him! It was brilliant and just wonderful to watch! Here is the link if you wish to watch it: http://youtube.com/watch?v=MvlBi7Nd4LM

The judges come back to their seats, which means that they've made their decision. Chelsea is the first to step forward and Nigel, very bluntly tells her she's eliminated tonight. Comfort and Kourtni are safe....
It was funny, I went with my mom to this jewelry party thing and so Jenna and Kelsee were texting me who was in the bottom 3 and stuff. And so we were going to get in the car to drive home when i spotted SYTYCD playing on someones tv. and so i stood in the road for about 3 minutes watching their tv to see who got eliminated.
Anyway, Nigel tells Matt he's sorry for always picking on him, but his solo was wonderful and he was safe. Thayne and Chris are left together, both looking like they're going to burst into tears any minute now. Thayne is safe and Chris is eliminated. I knew i was going to be sad no matter what happened because they were all good and so cute! So now Thayne is partnered with Comfort. I hope they do well, and Comfort doesn't bring Thayne down.

So goodbye to Chelsea and Chris. They made it to the top 16! Best of luck in all they do!

Loves,
Brooke
