"We have trust issues." Mylar

Miranda is a firecracker and I hope that if Blake really is cheating on her, she enacts choice scenes from her country classic Kerosene in real life. Boo Blake! I didn't care much for the song choices on last night's show. #thatpower, Judith? Really? Anything with will.i.am and the Biebs is automatically 90% garbage. I give them 10% because some Black Eyed Peas songs are just undeniably catchy and Biebs has a monkey so I can't totally hate on him. I didn't think Sasha's song suited her voice and she was pitchy on a lot of it, pretty much every time she wasn't singing like she was starring in her own version of Les Mis in her mind. I love Michelle and the whole Michelle/Usher lovefest they got going on but that is one of my least favorite Bruno Mars songs. Still, she did a great job and was probably tops on the night for me. I also enjoyed the Swon Brothers rendition of 7 Bridges Road even though there were some really funky timing issues (but I blame that on the stupid off rhythm clapping from the audience). I thought that was the best they've sounded on the whole show. Danielle is just too young for me to really be interested, though she has a lovely voice. When I was listening to her, I was thinking the whole time how I'd really rather be hearing Winona and Naomi sing that song. I don't think that's what I was supposed to be thinking. Amber singing Skyfall was fine, I just wish Adam would stop trying so hard to make her not be a country singer. She looked really uncomfortable all done up in Adele drag. Great voice though. I didn't care for either Holly or Sarah. I've liked Holly in the past, but that Band Perry song was done better by Janelle on AI only a few short weeks ago and I can't forget it. Sarah's voice is just not for me. You say "interesting breaks", I say "tuneless nightmare". Let's call the whole thing off. Oh, and that Goyte song is played out.

Baby Usher shutting it down in a 'fro and red kicks killed me dead. As my mom says, that man foine.

So, I have to share that the girl I'm seeing, I met at karaoke, but I knew she was flirting with me when she taught me how to do...the Wobble. Which makes me laugh and laugh and think of SYTYCD.

Awww. A++ for the new girl! Anyone who likes Miss Debbie Allen and is a connoisseur of various line dances is OK in my book.

Thrive to spite them

What is Mary wearing? I don't understand if it's some weird shirt or some weird sweater vest top combo.

I think that it's a leather tank top and a fuschia shrug. Ugh.

SYTYCD: Can get a shout out for the adorable little tapper? She totally stole my heart!

Because books.

I convinced my mom and dad to watch tonight, and Dad said early on he would love to see a tapper (as if this was a total impossibility), so when she came on his jaw dropped.

I'm not sure either of them understand Mary yet.

Agh, missed the first 15 min getting food. Guess I can TiVo later when I'm home.

watching SYTYCD now.

I am fairly uncomfortable with how little Phillip speaks. I wonder what's up with that?

Can't wait to hear what Kat says about all these! I think only this alley dancer has really impressed/intrigued me sofar, but I feel like they're not showing tons of the good stuff this episode, either.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Adam is a fucking scream. Love him.

Wow, I thought that CO ballet dancer was amazing. At least we might see good girl solos for once.
