Yep.. she is so real.. like that time one of the dancers had a toe that had popped out of her shoe and it looked painful.. Cat got down on her knees to help get her shoe off. And I also enjoyed Adam Lambert too..

Pamy, I read earlier that you were a Mollee fan - so was I. I think she was ill-served by the choreographers who didn't expect much from her but cutesy. Once she got some decent choreography, she more than proved herself as capable the other women. Yay, Russell!!!

Some people think Russell was too demonstrative when he won. Apparently Russell and Kathryn will be on the academy awards.

Kathyb - I agree about Mollee! I loved her and so wish she had been originally paired with someone other than Nathan. I was sad to see her go. I thought she was just really coming into her own! Russell was very demonstrative when he won and I wish he had given Jakob a bit of notice first but on the other hand I know the area he came from and for him to have had this dream and make it a reality must just seem incredible to him. He should be so proud! I am so very happy for him and he deserves this! The depth of his emotion moved me and brought me to tears. He was so reserved for much of the show and I think tried to hide his emotions and they just all came out at the end. I don't fault him at all!

Pamy, there's a link upthread but it happened towards the end of his hip hop dance. Apparently after he jumped offstage to krump, and Kevin and Legacy pulled him back up on stage, he landed wrong and said it happened then.

I thought the light sort of went out for me as far as the women competing when Mollee left. Wasn't J Lo dancing between Katee and Mollee in that bit with the women of SYTYCD past and present dressed in white?? I think it was up to the producers, who should have given Jakob a bit of a farewell in the schedule but they didn't.. as it was, Russell was having credits rolled over him for much of his final time and this was probably the peak experience of his life, so far, so no.. I think he should have been able to celebrate. And I'd say that even if he came from a rich and pampered childhood. As for being too active.. I'm pretty sure that prior to that segment he had been give pain meds (or some medic attention) and besides if Kelly Osbourne, very much not a pro dancer, could finish a dance in heels with her injury, I'm sure Russell could manage a bit of expression through pain. I really thought other than going down on his knees, he was more animated in terms of arms and face anyway and they weren't sprained.

<100> If I had just won a contest that I worked my behind off for and in addition won A QUARTER OF A MILLION DOLLARS, you'd best believe I'd be demonstrative. Maybe Russell can carry around mistletoe in his back pocket and tell 'some people' to go ahead and kiss his tail.

Kathy, I also agree about Mollee. Besides being a great dancer and showman/girl the camera loves her. She will go far and I wish her the best! KL, I think he was more in his krumper character when he first won, kinda like This is one for all the krumpers/boys in the hood! type thing. I love the pic of him on his knees giving praise. One of the girls in that Bogaloo group was in the Beat Freak group that came in 2nd on the other dance show, that group rocked!

I don't know if he was on this season, but Choreographer, Shane Sparks, has been arrested on charges of child molestation this morning. http://www.ktla.com/news/landing/ktla-shane-sparks,0,1552346.story

I don't think Russell was overly demonstrative, I like that he just let his happiness soar, enough for us to join in. It was such a great moment, I'm still so happy for him. I do agree, I think some people like to rain on other people's parades. I think they should have the dancers dance with different partners each week, then one dancer wouldn't be blamed for the other, and we can see early on their different capabilities with different partners. I blame the comments of the judges myself, it aggravates me when they label the dancers. There is a huge difference between judging and being judgmental to me and they were all over the judgemental.

A young man, who comes from a tough neighborhood and has surely had to overcome many obstacles to become an outstanding dancer is being slammed for celebrating his hard earned victory? Give me a friggin break!

I love that when Russell won, the foot that he could barely put weight on, no longer hurt.

I don't know if he was on this season, but Choreographer, Shane Sparks, has been arrested on charges of child molestation this morning. Okay, this is kind of weird. From my math, Shane Sparks was about 20 when this happened (born 1974) and the victim was 10 years younger.

Kookliebird said: "I love that when Russell won, the foot that he could barely put weight on, no longer hurt." Somewhere online I read an interview with him and he mentioned being on a rush of adrenalin toward the end. And that is exactly what I was thinking in regards to his no longer being in visible pain from injury. I recently watched a documentary re adrenalin, and how it can "protect" the body from feeling pain in times of extreme stress; enough so that a woman with massive incapacitating injuries could crawl a long ways to rescue, and once on a stretcher and adrenalin subsided, needed all kinds of pain-killers. This was a different positive kind of adrenalin, but I'll bet it did the same thing.

Beth, I agree. He even did some krumping moves when he won. When they were eliminating people (he was on the stool), you could tell from his face that he was hurting.

He also said that during the breaks they had given him some ultra-sound therapy and some pain medication. Combine the meds and the adrenalin, and he probably wasn't feeling anything at the moment...but I'm sure he felt it later!

RE: Adrenaline... when I got hit by a car (I was the pedestrian), the adrenaline rush lasted about 45 minutes. For that amount of time, while I knew I was banged up and bleeding (albeit nothing broken, thankfully), I didn't think I was hurt that badly. 45 minutes later, I apparently became noticeably sheet white, and then it slammed me like a bag of bricks. I was fully mobile for those 45 minutes. Even after while I was still recovering and moving slowly, if I saw a car move in my peripheral vision, I would scurry out of the way on an adrenaline rush (moving when I really couldn't). Adrenaline is an amazing and scary thing. (If you have a rush of adrenaline, it can actually kill you if your heart isn't healthy. A close girlfriend died from adrenaline rush.)

I am so glad that Shane won. He is a product of Boston Arts Academy which is sort of like Fame/Boston but on a smaller scale. It is a public HS with a strong arts background.
