I HATED that they put Russell in the bottom and made him dance for his life. WTH was that??? I guess it never occured to me that...as Flamingo said...they maybe just wanted to see his awesome solo. But still. Way to mess with that poor kid's confidence! Ugh. That WAS ridiculous!!!

My favorites of the night were actually Legacy and Kathryn. I LOVED that dance!

Seeing as how both of the guys were disadvantaged (Russell losing his partner to an injury and Brandon being put in at the last minute), I wasn't surprised to see either of them in the bottom.

But Russell wasn't as sharp in this style as some of the others...NOT SAYING I WANTED HIM GONE CAUSE I REALLY LIKE HIM!...I think he has lots of STYLE but his skills as a ballroom dancer are pretty in need of sharpening. Having said that though I think he will work his dreads to the bone this coming week. Hopefully he will get something more in his genre.

I thought it was rather nice that they are giving Brandon the chance to come back next year. However, I choose not to be cynical (although the thought did cross my mind that Nigel can probably do whatever he wants).

I thought Bianca did an amazing job...that was not an easy dance. I realize she received a lot of criticism but I was amazed at some of the things - like when the guy was walking and she was rolling across the stage...that was remarkably effective.

I'm still not a Legacy fan but he did a good job last night. Phillip is probably my least favorite dancer...he just kind of seems like a really nerdy guy and kind of arrogant in his intelligence. He probably isn't but that's just how he comes across in his bits.

I know somebody had to go but I thought Adriana had done a really good job. But then again - somebody has to go, right?

If Noelle can't continue I hope they bring Ariana back. Also they should give Brandon,Billy,and Noelle automatic spots in next season's top 20 imo.

I've begun watching this show, and the Canadian version and it's fun. DWTS is still my fave, tho. Anyhow, I owe Mary Murphy's fans here, an appology. I saw her on Ellen about a week ago, and was in a flood of tears for what she's endured in her life, as a (formerly) battered wife. My heart goes out to her. What a strong, positive role-model!!!! (Although her joyful shrieking still isn't my cup of tea... it's not as annoying to me, any more.)

I really liked Ariana and was sad to see her go. I could not believe that Russell was made to dance for his life! I love Russell!!! I'm hoping that maybe this will help him though as his fans will take the time to vote to keep him out of the bottom.

Oh, I forgot to say (in case somebody else didn't) - Nigel did say that if Noelle can't dance next week that she will be gone.

I think if Noelle can't dance, she'll be the girl gone next week.

And Russell will have no partner again. And no one to practice with in the meantime. He will be at a big disadvantage again. He is one of my favorites, too.

I read somewhere, I think on Nappytabs twitter, that everyone had to be tested for mono, so perhaps that is it.

Thanks, Ladytex. I hope that is what it is and not anything more serious.

I wonder if he will be able to return to school.

Mono isn't usually life-threatening. But perhaps it is if you are under the stress of the SYTYCD schedule.

On reality blurred, his mom said that he was sitting out of Julliard, too.
His family released a statement to SYTYCDism that said, in part, “Billy was devastated when his doctors told the show that if he continued to dance on the show before he recovered, he could possibly die. It will take several weeks for him to recover and as a result, he will be unable to return to Juilliard as of right now. … Billy is still quite ill but was released from the hospital today. He’s feeling better but still needs to rest.”

I just heard a rumor that Mia is leaving the show, any reason why? I really enjoy her.

If Ariana was Russell's partner, wouldn't they put Russell with Pauline? I'm so glad she didn't go. It was so very obvious whom the judges wanted to get rid of when they chose the four.

Noelle was Russell's partner. She was sitting in the audience with her leg in a brace. Supposedly having an MRI soon.

Though DH and I were shocked that they made Russell dance for his life (I actually gasped whent they announced his name), I was heartened by the audible gasp and protest from the audience, too. I think he has a lot of fans already. I thought he did awesome on his dance, even without Noelle and considering it's way out of his genre. Both DH and I think he has tons of charisma and natural talent. I think he'll go far.

Mono may not be "life-threatening," but it is very, very debilitating. I've known people who've had it and couldn't walk more than a few steps without being exhausted. It typically goes after young people and takes several weeks to recover from. I wish Billy and his family well!

I had it between Thanksgiving and Christmas my freshman year in college...I would get up, go to class, come home, go to bed...and then start up all over again!

From eonline...

• So You Think You Can Dance: Mia Michaels finally did an interview about her sudden departure from SYTYCD, and she says it wasn't because she's got cancer or is going crazy, but rather, "When I was working on the show, I wasn't able to really focus on anything else. Now I'm really focusing on these other projects that I can't pass up. I think that’s pretty much the main reason why I left the show." Hmph. On the good side, however, Michaels also revealed, "Right now [I'm] in talks [to do] my own choreography show." Holler!

Oh, that's right. Thanks, Ladytex. Lol, when I watched the show and saw him dancing with the choreographer, I looked at her and thought, "She's a little old for this contest." Duh..didn't put it together until I read here.

Is Peter any good? I can't remember his and Ariana's dance. I like Pauline and want her to stick around.

Peter is the white tapper. He was okay but not great...but certainly not better than Russell (IMO).

I think they had Russell dance to show anyone that didn't see his auditions how great he is and to also show he is not a trained dancer (or so he says, that's debatable even the judges questioned it) he is the first krumper.
