They definitely keep people because they are marketable/appealing, but I will be PISSED if they cut either of those brothers....they are AWESOME......I really can't wait to see who makes it tonight!!!!

Based on the previews from last night it looked almost like the final spot was going to go to one of the brothers...

Yep, I agree! They do this kind of crap every year for the "drama factor" imo, I think it's totally annoying and totally unfair. Just like last year, both Katee AND Natalie should have gone to the top 20 and not pitted against each other.

DH is soooo cute, he is totally rooting for both of the brothers to go through! I love that my DH secretly loves this show as much as I do haha but he would never admit it!

OMG FI is 100% open that he likes this show haha - he even reminds me about it when its on. I love it!

Yael - that is too cute! I just love hearing DH say "those two guys better f'in make it or the judges are retarded!" lol such passion!! hahaha

FI loves the show - I couldn't believe it when I first met him bc he is always the "manly man" and he hated American Idol (although he secretly likes it now). We're even taking dance lessons this summer bc he thinks it's so cool.

I think it was almost unfair to those returning from last year because they had such high expectations for them - Brandon, Natalie, tap girl (can't remember her name)

 

I was trying to figure out who the 20 would be based on my unscientific reasoning based on style, ethnicity, personality

 

I really like Tony. The thing with him is that he is so tall, he hasn't gotten control of his body in different choreography styles, knowing his timing for full extensions, etc.

 

Just a guess but I'll say...and it would be much easier if I knew all of the names...

 

Boys:

Tony - hip hop

Phillip - popper

Asian Ballet Dancer from Miami

Brandon - contemporary

Maximus? - Latin Ballroom

Evan - Broadway

Ryan - Evan's Brother - Broadway (also adds to the story line)

Pono - the Hawaiian Contemporary guy

the African dancer

One other guy that kinda looks like Danny from season 3 but I don't know his name

 

 

Girls:

Asuka - Latin Ballroom

Kaitlyn

Jannette - Latin Ballroom

Paris

 

Crap I forgot who the rest of them were. When they were lined up last night I had them all picked out!

 

Sorry, this was a crappy post not knowing everyone's name! LOL BTW, I hate that they do so many interviews with people who don't make it. I think it gives the ones who do an unfair advantage because the audience has gotten a chance to "bond" with them from the beginning.

 

Does it seem that there is a lack of hip-hop dancers? It seems like everyone is contemporary/jazz/lyrical. I know that a lot of dancers are cross trained but don't mention it, but I don't remember any other styles that really stick out from the solos.

Erin -I was just telling FI that last night - they didnt showcase like ANY hip hoppers

[~*Kathy*~]

I agree, there were wayyyy more hip-hop type dancers showcased last year and hardly any this year...boo!
