Brandon's solo was the most amazing yet this season! I think most of the solo's are ho-hum.

The breast cancer dance was wonderful - but just to be honest I don't think that's going to be the most memorable for me. I didn't get chills from it.

The "addiction" solo was much more powerful to me (I think I watched it 10 times in a row).

But it didn't make Nigel cry, Steviegirl.

My favorite was the Warrior number. Loved it. Oh and the Zombie thing was great too.

The BC was beautiful.

I thought Ade's solo was just as good as Brandon's. I think they are very similar in their styles.

For once I wish they HAD said something about the costuming because I thought the simplicity of Melissa's outfit and sans a lot of make up, along with the head scarf gave it even more validity and beauty. It truly represented so much for so many. She and Ade are wonderful together. I love her grace and his strength.

I'm once again taken aback by Nigel's comments to Melissa on her first performance with Ade. I am so sick of him disrespecting these women, particularly women who are old enough to be his grandchildren. Melissa is a very skilled and talented dancer and is not there to titillate Nigel. The word "sexy" is not a compliment to someone whom you don't know, it's an insult, particularly when in a competition. Her skill as a dancer speaks for itself. Mary jumping in on Nigel's toolness made me more irritated--I would never sit by and allow any man to disrespect a women in that way, particularly someone half their age.

Perhaps it was there in the past and I didn't notice it, I don't know, but it seems to me this season Nigel's true colors are showing--that's not going to keep me watching. I think it might be due to the divided attention with this show and the next, it's not up to par the way it usually is. I don't think that some viewers noticing no dancer really standing out this season is the dancers' fault, I think it's the production staff and the time and attention they are putting into this show (a guess of course), which at times looks as if it is the rehearsal for the first season to me. I'm going to continue to support the dancers as a viewer, but I'm tired of the negative and objectifying comments; mute didn't cut it for me last night.

I liked and focused on what Mia had to say, bc even though she can be harsh, I like her directness and honesty in her comments on the routines. I don't think I disagreed with her on anything and got information on the level of performance that I needed to know. For me, after the solos and the couples routines, I still voted for Brandon and Melissa. I do think Kayla's solo was brilliant, but the second routine with Ade showed me that Melissa really has abilities beyond ballet. And I agree with so many, that was one of the best routines, I'm going to look for it later (unless someone else does).

There is NO way that Brandon should go home.

I'm a little surprised that Brandon is in the bottom. That should be Evan!

I sorta hope Jason and Kayla leave tonight. I'm sorry Kayla, but the judges saying how special you are makes me think you aren't.

I am just crushed at Janette leaving. What a shock. Boy, America sure got it wrong tonight.

I'm glad Brandon is safe, but very sad about Janette.

Crap! I'm surprised at Janette leaving. From what I've seen here, she had a pretty large fan base, too.

America totally got that wrong. And seriously, America. EVAN???? Really? The fact that he is still there makes me like him even less. I really REALLY was not impressed with ANY of his dancing last night. He is just too short to have lines that look like lines!

I rarely post but I am stunned that Janette went home. She has been so great every week. Last night was the first time I voted and it was for her, now I feel like I am cursed (I voted for Adam, too). I am so disgusted. She has consistently been the best performer of the season. SHOCKING.

Yes I will, if my track record for BB is any indication if I start rooting for them they should be gone any week!
I will root for Chima and Russell too.

Janette rules! this sucks. I really like all of them so every week is a bummer.

I am shocked that Evan has a bigger base than Jason, I figured the teeny booper vote would save him.

I have a feeling the voting age is higher than I think it is.

I loved Shane Sparks routine this week.

now that my final 4 has been messed up I am going with Brandon and Jeanine for the top spots with Jeanine winning.

I am so bummed about Janette! I really thought she'd be in the finals. For me, she's the best female dancer this season.

I will now switch my support to Jeanine. I love her, too.

For the guys--surprised that Evan is still standing. I don't dislike him like some here, but just don't see him as strong as Ade and Brandon.

Gorgeous pics, Stormie!

I haven't watched every performance but I am surprised about Janette as well. I thought she was excellent and a fan favorite.

I actually love Evan, I loved Jason too. I love all the guys, but of the girls, Janette was number 1. I didn't even think of a number 2! I thought finals would be Janette, Brandon and Kayla.
It is not hearing Mary scream to watch the rest of this season.
