Top 12

Well i just watched the top 12 performance show and as i sit here and vote for my new fav couple (my old fav got kicked off last week....sad i know) i will share my thoughts...
  • Chelsie and Mark ~~> first they danced a salsa...again with the feathers not as distracting as last weeks feathers in their foxtrot but i could have done with out them...onto the actual dance...i liked it!!!...i'm not a salsa expert or anything but i thought it was entertaining and it looked super difficult and to me it looked like they nailed it...but i do agree with mia's comment about mark's character not being as strong as it usually is...still a great number!!! for their second dance of the evening they had broadway and let me start by saying that i LOVE the song they used and it brings back all kinds of great memories for me (like dawnie and her ending pose)...so yeah i liked this peice...i wouldn't call it amazing or anything but it was good and they def sold the whole feeling of the song...so overall for the night these 2 had two solid performances....i'm a fan!!!
  • Thayne and Comfort ~~> first up hip hop...i thought thayne did a much better job at picking up the style of hip hop than any other non hiphoper this whole season...yes i understand what the judges said about no chemistry blah blah whatever but i really think that he danced it really well if that makes any sence to anyone...and i give him major props for not smiling because as a constant smiler i find it super dificult not to smile while im dancing and it takes a lot of effort becuase i find so much joy in danceing that the smile just slips out even if the song or dance dont really call for it....anyway moving on...next they did contemporary...yeah comfort just...no....she just wasnt good at it...i'm not too happy she was even here this week so i'm gonna be extra critical on her and i dont even have to be because anyone can see that she was not good at this dance....thayne on the other hand was excellent!!!...i see bottom three in their near future...i just really hope that mia fights for thayne to stay...
  • Will and Jessica~~> contemporary...yeah all i have to say is OH.MY.GOD...i was completly speachless after this one....it was definitely one of those WOW moments...i think its my fav from the whole sesaon...there are no words to describe how brilliant will is...and i must admit that i was not a jessica fan in the beginning becuase her fist solo was aweful but she started to grow on me a little bit and then last week she stepped it up with the shirt dance and now this week she def proved herself to me...so good job!!!...dance number two was quickstep...to me it seemed more like some type of fusion between quickstep and jive or something but def didnt look like your typical quickstep...i know nothing about proper quickstep technique so i cant really judge on that but i will say that i thought it was fun and i was entertained but their first dance was so excellent that they could have stood there and did nothing and still get my vote....thats right it said it my fingers are diling 888-TEMPO-03 tonight!!!!
  • Courtney and Gev~~> time for some cha cha...this was a fun number...at first i was kinda eh toward it but it picked as it went on...but i couldnt help but think about what it would have looked like if it was pasha and anya out there instead...now that would have been AMAZING!!!!...next up was a ??? (okay so i wasnt really paying attention when they said the style but i'm guessing it was jazz)...this was a safari themed dance...again i thought it was fun...gev did some great tricks but when he wasnt doing his trick i thought you could really see his limitations (like the super bent legs in that stradle jump)...so overall tonight these two were fun...
  • Twitch and Kherrington~~>they pulled krump out of the hat...i don't really like krumping so to me this dance was just okay...not because i dont think they did good because i thought twitch really shined in this peice but just because i dont like the style...and kherrington def lost some steam at the end...dance number two tango...yeah i wasnt feeling this...i dont think this was anywhere near the level of dancing we should be seeing at this point in the competition...i think after tonights performances they should be in the bottom 3 tomorrow night but because they are one of the golden couples i know they wont be...
  • Katee and Joshua~~>Viennese waltz was first for them...let me start by saying that i think I'm the only person who just doesn't get it with these 2...so with that being said i didn't like it...LOVE the song (its my text ringtone...hehe...) but not so much the dance...i didn't think it was flowy enough for a waltz...i don't know if that's completely their fault because it was pretty fast but the number one golden couple should have done better...oh dance number 2 was bollywood...and i have no comment...only because i don't want to offend anyone and i think that's where my comments would be headed...lol...so lets just leave it at that....

Okay so that's everything...let me know what you think...and i will be back tomorrow with the results!!!
