So You Think You Can Dance - Finale Results - 08/16/07
Live blogging the So You Think You Can Dance Finale Results show on August 16, 2007
"Best of the Season" dances at the moment... Judges' Choice. Hmmm...
Results:
Lacey Schwimmer is eliminated! (I'm a bit shocked I thought she had the strongest fanbase)
Nicole Scherzinger formerly of the Pussycat Dolls performs lip-syncs. (Geez, I had to google the spelling of her name.)
Okay this whole choreorgrapher's and judges' choice is dragging on TOO LONG.
Wow, Sara has sooooo many encores tonight.
Neil Haskell is eliminated!
My guess is that all these dance numbers were pre-taped today because all these costumes changes and make-up are impossible in two hours.
That sucked. Cat Deeley and Nigel Lithgow perform via jibjab.com. I was really hoping Cat would dance.
Ryan Cabrera performs I Will Remember You
RESULTS
Danny Tidwell is eliminated!
Sabra Johnson is America's Favorite Dancer!
I'm crushed.
I tried Danny, I tried. *sob*
Danny didn't even get flowers or a video send off. I hope I get tickets to the tour and see Danny Tidwell.
Post-mortem: This was a bit of a mistake. I know that Nigel wanted a female winner this year, but when Danny Tidwell headlines shows in the near future (which I hope he will), it would be a great benefit to the show if they can tack on "So You Think You Can Dance Winner" for free to Danny's name. I don't think SYTYCD will figure as prominently in Danny's resume (along with ABT, etc.) since he didn't win. The flip side though is that because Sabra came from nowhere, it will surely inspire a lot more unknowns to audition for next season, which on hindsight is what Fox really wants to happen. Read: You don't need to be trained to the hilt like Danny to win. Congratulations Sabra, take the money and run! Haha. It's just money this year right? No dance contract to some Las Vegas show?
