Now, the Bailout is $700 Billion, over 4 1/2 times the Economic Stimulus Payment, and this will be passed along to the taxpayers, meaning taxes WE are going to have to pay.  That breaks down to $2700 out of our pockets in taxes average per person.

So right, who is this bailing out?  Not the people who are already losing houses and jobs right and left, and not the people who truly need it most.

Who’s going home?  I have no freaking clue.  All 6 are completely wonderful to me, and I can only venture the tiniest guess at who might not make it into the Final 4.

As much as it pains me to say, I think Courtney is going to be out.  Chelsie and Katee are so incredibly strong and have just about never had a weak dance this season.

As for the guys, I call Mark Kanemura as out.  I adore Mark and would actually love to see a Marksie reunion in the finale, but Twitch has such a fan following, and Joshua, to me, is just a shoe-in.

Who do I want to win?  Chelsie Hightower

Who’ll win?  Joshua Allen.  The man is a genius dancer (I still think he’s had more training than we know, and that Pasa Doble last night sealed the deal.

Will I be disappointed with the winner this season?  At this point, nope.  Not like last year.  Any of the 6 deserve it.

Enjoy the show!

However, I AM just as surprised as one Mark Kanemura when finding out that he is still in the competition (I want to yell with joy, but something is not letting me!) and Will Wingfield, by far the most talented dancer on the show this season overall (specifically, in technical skill and versatility) is out.  My theory is simply that Will has the Danny complex — he is more quiet and introspective.  He takes everything in and doesn’t really come out of his shell as crazily (and enjoyably) as Twitch, Joshua, and Mark do.  Because of this, maybe people didn’t get to know him as well.

And how about Twitch’s reaction to being in the bottom??

All I know is that it’s going to be an interesting week next week!!

My call for the Final 4:

Twitch Boss, Joshua Allen, Katee Shean, & Chelsie Hightower

Who do I want to win?
Hell, they all deserve it!  But I want Chelsie or Josh to win.

Who will win:

Joshua Allen will be America’s Favorite Dancer

1.  Twitch & Katee’s Contemporary routine - Say WHAT!  That was a KISS, no peck, no kiss, a KISSSSSSS.  And the passion in this routine was just insane.  (Thank you Mia Michaels, you really are a genius!)

2.  Will Wingfield’s solo - Officially the most entertaining solo I’ve ever seen someone do on the show.

3.  Comfort Fedoke & Mark Kanemura’s Hip Hop routine - hard hitting, funky, fun.  Thoroughly enjoyable to watch.

4.  Chelsie Hightower & Joshua Allen - These two are just fun together and I always love watching them dance.  I hope both make the Final 4.  (And her legs are to die for!  My sister and I both want Chelsie to win.  Who knew she’d been to Blackpool several years?  Impressive!)
I still call Mark & Comfort to go home tonight.

The one thing I am upset most about is I know it’s got to be tough for Kherington at this point.  Had Jessica stayed in the competition, I am almost positive Kherington would have stayed another week, but since Comfort had already been eliminated once, then came back and did NOT get eliminated last week, there has to be some hard feelings.  I’d have some, for sure.

On a sidenote, this year’s bunch also seems a lot more close-knit than last year’s, from what I’ve noticed specifically in the reactions when people get cut.

Tonight should be interesting, and my prediction for who will go home this week:
Twitch or Mark  (I think Josh & Will have sealed themselves for Final 4 status)
Comfort Fedoke  (It’s just time for this to happen)

Of course, then we hear the words of Nigel.  “This is America’s FAVORITE dancer, not America’s BEST dancer.”

Bah.  I’m disgruntled now.  My boyfriend is now protesting SYTYCD (thanks voters!) since Kherington got voted off (so ridiculous) and this will make it much more difficult and much less fun to watch.
I did call it right for Gev to go home, and think the top 2 guys will be Joshua and Will and the top 2 girls, Chelsie and Katee.  Yes, I know, all but 4 of them are going home sometime soon, and even then, there can be only 1 winner.  (GO JOSHUA or CHELSIE!)

1.  What great routines by Joshua Allen & Courtney Galiano!  And what an unlikely pair!  I love these two doing Latin Ballroom of any kind, and the characters portrayed in their first dance a la Dr. Frankenstein were just fun.

2.  Will Wingfield and Katee Shean were great together.  As my sister said, they’re great together because they are both on the same level technically.  The boat dance was just silly and fun, and the par-de-deux was beautiful.  Will stole the show there!

3.  Chelsie Hightower and Gev Manoukian (I find it interesting that he got paired with someone his own height again — conveniently?) were great, but Chelsie is just a heartbreaker and such a beautiful, believable, emotional dancer.  I do expect to see her on Broadway sometime shortly after the tour.

4.  Twitch Boss and Comfort Fedoke doing what they do best with Hip Hop and killing it.  It was so refreshing to see them do what they’re strongest at and together for that matter, especially after watching Twitch be so off and on the last 2 times (he really does NOT wear ballroom well.  Sorry Twitch!!) and Comfort be eliminated and brought back.  (I have a feeling she’ll go home tonight, but at least she went out with a bang!)

Who’s in the Bottom 3:

Guys:  Twitch, Mark, and Gev

Girls:  Comfort, Kherington, and Courtney

Who’s going home tonight?

Comfort and Gev

I’m actually kind of glad I waited to write because I would not have known about a certain development which I will mention momentarily.

I was a bit annoyed at the bottom 3 girls selection.  Kherington killed her solo and that’s what I call dancing for your life.  Comfort really tried but just has so much room to grow, and Jessica seems to think too much and it shows all over her face.  I wish they could have kept 6 guys and 4 girls.  I am surprised, however, by something…  Although I am sad for Jessica injuring herself as I wish injury on noone, I am not upset at all to see Comfort return.  For the guys’ solos, Twitch is just phenomenal and Will is already a pro!!  It was a shame to see Thayne go, but I’m sure he’ll be on tour as an alternate too.

So here are your top 10 and I couldn’t be more excited to see these 10 on Tour in the fall!!  (I’m sure they’ll have both Jessica & Comfort on tour.)

Here are your girls:

Kherington Payne

Chelsie Hightower

Courtney Galiano

Katee Shean

Comfort Fedoke

And Here are your guys (I LOVE the guys this season!  I have mini dancer crushes on the first 3 in the list!)

Twitch Boss

Mark Kanemura

Joshua Allen

Will Wingfield

Gev Manoukian

I am abstaining from calling the bottom 3 this week. LOL  I truly like the Top 10 and think it’s going to depend on who gets partnered with whom.

Who will go home this week:

Comfort Fedoke (she’ll get one last chance, but isn’t as strong as the other 4 girls)

Gev Manoukian (Gev is good, but I don’t see voters letting the other 4 guys go so easily)
