Tonight’s So You Think You Can Dance audition episode featured Atlanta Georgia. Lil C was the guest judge. Tune in tomorrow at 8 pm for another audition episode–this time in New Orleans, LA.
Here are some of Atlanta highlights:
Video and Highlights after the JUMP…
Billy Bell – 19 – Loxahatchee, FL – Billy has only been dancing for 5 years. He’s very raw, but very good. After Nigel nitpicked his technique, all the judges said they could not pass him to choreography. Psych! They sent him straight to Vegas instead. – VIDEO
Amber Jackson – 18 – Decatur, GA – Amber is a strong, beautiful dancer, with no personality. Oh noes. Nigel hates that. After she dances the choreography, the judges decide to give her a chance. Get a personality, STAT they tell her… – VIDEO
Victor Smalley – 20 – Miami, FL – Gorgeous dancer. I hope we see lots more of Victor in Vegas. – VIDEO
Anthony and Antwain Hart – 22 – Linden, NC – I vaguely remember these guys from Season 4, and if I’m remembering correctly, one of them made it to Vegas? Well, that’s what happened this year. The judges are impressed with their growth in two years, but, as they usually do with street dancers, the pair are asked to perform choreography. Anthony gets through, Antwain does not. – VIDEO
Jessica Jensen – 25 – Pensecola FL – Jessica lost a hand to cancer, but that has not stopped her from dancing. The judges are moved and impressed. But, unfortunately, she stumbles through her choreography and they cut her. VIDEO
Thomas Hamilton – 20 – Scottdale GA – Here’s the sob story of the night. Thomas is a crack baby raised by his aunt. He’s itching to escape his drab, poverty-stricken life, so he dances. The worship dance he performs for audition totally turns Nigel off. I think Mary and Little C would have given him a ticket straight to Vegas. Nigel sends Thomas to choreography, where he eventually advances. – VIDEO
