Re: Melanie's figure--she strikes me as having a barrel chest, which gives her more of a rounded torso, so her middle isn't "doughy" so much as it doesn't seem to taper down to a thin waist.
Also, on rewatching the finale, I think that Sasha had definitely lost some weight during the final few weeks, because she definitely thinner than she had been in the beginning of the season. Nerves and lots of rehearsals, probably.
I'm watching SYTYCD S6 on Ovation right now and I don't even recognize these people. I remember Nathan and Mollee, and I remember the top six, but anyone else? Yikes.
And to whoever commented on Nigel being a hardass this season? Wow, you're right. He is RIPPING Nathan apart in the episode I'm watching right now.
Were there any pasa dobles in S8?
Marko and Jeannette. And Alexander and Sasha.
Thank you! I couldn't remember.
That's because they weren't memorable.
Was it Marko who did a paso doble with one of the All Stars? I remember the dance and he swung her around his shoulders so her skirt looked like a cape.
And, in regard to Melanie's build, I do like that she's more compact than dancers usually are. While almost all of the ballet dancers you see these days seem to be attenuated, I remember (back in the '60s) seeing Melissa Hayden, I think it was, who had much the same build.
On Master Chef last night - just waiting for Christian to get booted off for arrogance. His quote from last night: "I didn't come here to learn, I came here to win" (or words to that effect).
I hate it when people say that sort of thing.
Also - between him and Suzie - either could have gone and I'd have been glad. (I can't believe that Suzie said that she has "no ego." Hahahahaha!)
I cannot stand him! At all!
I almost yell at the screen every time he is on. I told Beau: he will be in the final 3 even if he serves a dog's dinner on a plate. He is the "villain."
