For some reason I thought Susie was a high school teacher? I thought someone made a comment about what affect she might have on teenage boys. Am I remembering wrong?

Yea, my husband said he never had a teacher that looks like Susie...I remember my teachers with grey buns, a pinched look, and old fashioned dresses, I thought they were about 100 years old,but they probably were only about 40!

Nessie - I had a teacher that was seriously old in first grade. She was at least 75. I went back to that school after graduating high school and she was STILL THERE. She finally died at 102 having been retired for 2 years. THAT was an old teacher. From the old school. I am a natural lefty but she refused to teach "wrong handed" people so she would make me and another lefty in class sit on our left hands and learn to write with our right. Evil woman. lol, I really hated her for years.

she is one of the most popular Heat dancers, like I posted before- they have her in every commercial, every routine up front any ad featuring the heat, and all over the place locally. She might have had her ego inflated a bit.

I agree with the poster that said because you have a latin background you think you know salsa..lol it's how I feel....but I understand that there is ballroom salsa and street salsa. I was so glad when the choreographer said that. I said "hey, I just posted that this a.m. at tvch..!!!!" yeah me! lol

In any case, forget her saying she has training. Do we not remember all the kids who audition and say they teach dance and like SEX who has toured and done competitions so he says? ha ha ha ha ha

The school she went to though IS a hard school. I sure didn't see it in her dancing though.

Babyjax, it is also my understanding Susie is a high school teacher. She never said on the show that she teaches dance, I just think somehow along the way it got misstated here. I recall the comment you mentioned, and I also recall Susie stating that when being approached in the halls at the school, they think she's a student & she has to tell them she's a teacher.

In her interview after getting eliminated, I think she mentioned she'd like to teach dance, if I recall correctly.

Oh, Shel, that was terrible what that woman did to you and your friend. Today that would be cause for dismissal. That's abuse by today's standards. I knew someone who went to Catholic school back in the day. The nuns would hit her knuckles with a ruler whenever they caught her using her left hand to write. Terribly cruel!

I just saw twitch in Hairspray! Sorry if this was already mentioned/discussed but I only just saw Hairspray this weekend and I had to do a double take, but I'm pretty sure it was him.

What is The Grove? Is that a nightclub? Restaurant? Shouldn't he be practicing his routine? He was bottom two last week.

The Grove is an upscale mall next to the Farmer's Market in LA.

It was after we saw a movie, so it was about 10PM. He probably can't practice 24 hours a day LOL

So, here are this week's dance selections:

Kherington Payne and Twitch - Hip Hop by Napoleon & Tabitha

Courtney Galiano and Gev Manoukian - Rumba by Tony Meredith

Comfort Fedoke and Chris Jarosz - Jazz by Tyce Diorio

Jessica King and Will Wingfield - Disco by Doriana Sanchez

Chelsea Traille and Thayne Jasperson - Quickstep by Heather Smith

Kourtni Lind and Matt Dorame - Contemporary by Sonya Tayeh

Chelsie Hightower and Mark Kanemura - Hip Hop by Napoleon & Tabitha

Katee Shean and Joshua Allen - Samba by Tony Meredith


Just an initial reaction to the list, I think the Quickstep, Rumba and Disco dancers are probably at risk to be in the bottom 3 this week.

I think definitely the rumba and the disco pairs are at risk. I think Chelsea and Thayne might pull off the quickstep.

But we know that Will at least will be passed through, despite the fact he might be in the bottom 3. Not sure on Jessica...despite the judge love that she has been getting the public seems to dislike her.

Kherington and Twitch definitely got the sweet spot this week!

I don't think Comfort will be able to do jazz but she might surprise me.

Hope Kourtni and Matt do a great job this week.

I'll be interested in seeing how Chelsie Hightower does in Hip Hop...and is it usual to have two couples doing the same dance?

Katee and Joshua have had good dances so far...how will they fare in the samba? Do either of them have any ballroom/Latin training?

I think Courtney and Gev have had the worst dances to-date and got stuck with the rumba tonight.

Random thoughts...LOL!

In the first week, I really liked Napoleon and Tabitha's routines. I can't wait to see what they do with Twitch now that they have had a few weeks to see what he can do. And, I think Twitch will rub off on Kerrington. She'll probably kill the routine as well.
My random thought: I wonder if Napoleon and Tabitha got together because their names are kind of cool sounding when said together.

Roxip, that is so true and that aspect really bothers me about this show this year! I dont ever remember them saying things about being in finals to a dancer. For that reason I will never vote for Will, it would be a wasted vote because they will always pass him thru.

They were very critical of his partner last week and I feel they will eliminate her when they have a chance. I feel they want to put him with a more popular girl.

I agree with Pamy. But, the problem with Will is that he is not very popular himself. Unless he develops of following (or Debbie Allen has his call-in vote number on speed dial), he will only leave once the judges are no longer determining who is leaving out of the bottom 3. They love him and will not vote him out. Basically, he is a shoo-in for the Top 10.
