Camerapeople, make up, hair and wardrobe people on SYTYCD = all on that junk. It really is distractingly bad at times. It was also tough on the hyphy section because Marko and Ricky got out of time with each other.
But I understand. You gave up everything you had to find me. And you found me broken. It's hard for you.

Wardrobe - are they the people we can blame for dance "costumes" consisting of underwear (and, sometimes, diapers)?

I was pretty stunned at how thoroughly Melissa threw herself at Neil. Talk about trusting your partner - she was coming full force.
Neil was pretty good, not that I was really looking at him except at his butt that one time. But he's not hunchy any more, I think!

Because books.
Psst, it's Melanie, not Melissa.
I actually gasped with the whole "hand to my breast" thing when she leapt. That was fearless and beautiful. I think she's part elf. Or possibly part Muppet. And I mean that in the best way.

Heh, I've been up since 4am. I can't tell you how many tries it took me to spell "threw" right.

I believe the kids choose their own wardrobe for their solos, so sadly we can not blame the wardrobe 'hos for the underwear as dancewear trend this season. Only for the hideous costumes they wear during the choreographed pieces.
Melanie is just a wonder - 10 across the board. That's why she got the special Mitchell shout out last week along with Ricky. She never does anything halfway. She and Marko throw themselves into everything, which is what stands them head and shoulders above the other dancers on the show. I mean, yes, they both have gorgeous technique, but so do a lot of other kids who are already gone and long forgotten. When you have that much conviction and commitment in your dancing . . . that you are willing to fling yourself recklessly into the air trusting your partner to catch you, that you get so deep in your dance moment that you wind up crying after every performance? That's when you go beyond technique and just become a dancer. I don't know. Love those two kids oodles and oodles. I think I like them even more apart than I did together. Blasphemy!
And the Hunchback turned it out last night. Respect.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I gasped out loud and said HOLY SHIT at that Melanie leap.
I also loved Gaga talking shit about the choreo and everything else that wasn't about dancing, because why not?
Marko also cries when he's safe every week, which I also find endearing.
Also also, I loved so many of the songs they used this week! I forgot about "Take a Bow"!

I wasn't too pleased with the "Total Eclipse" earworm, though.

Ricky was SHOCKED. He totally expected B4.
