Vegas week started in So You Think You Can Dance Season 6 Episode 7, and we get back to the rest of it tonight.
Karen Hauer is in the first group to perform. She’s told she can go and sit down, which apparently means she’s through to the next round. Her husband Matthew is in the next group. He has been cut.
By the end of the first day, Iveta Lukosiute and Willem de Vries are eliminated.
Mollee Gray and Russell Ferguson are in the same group. Mollee is warned that she’s dancing like a little girl. Russell, who’s a krumper with no formal training, is given compliments from the judges. Both of them advance to the next round, although Mollee’s limping as she gets off the stage.
Russell’s group of himself and four contemporary dancers draw a Broadway routine. They are given nothing but positive comments and make it through another round.
Mollee’s group is unaware of whether she will be returning from the hospital or not. After two hours, she returns to say she has a bad sprain but can still dance. They put together a routine where she’s able to dance but spends much of the time sitting. Whatever the routine, it falls flat for the judges, but it’s enough for them to get through the group round.
The next round is Mia time, which this season apparently means meditating and hugging.
Kevin Hunt is in the first group and this year hopes to not get cut on the final day of Vegas again. He moves to the next round after amazing the judges. Mollee and Russell are also safe.
Legacy was given another chance after dancing for his life. He says that something inside of him has changed after working with Mia, and she responds that he’s perfectly imperfect, which translates into a ticket to the next round.
A Tyce Diorio Broadway routine is the next step.
Pauline Mata was also cut on the final day of Vegas previously. During the rehearsal, she lands funny at the end, and ends up with an ankle swollen so bad that she can’t go on stage to perform the routine.
Ashleigh Di Lello has managed to survive this far despite the initial criticism she’s received, although she’s still in her husband Ryan’s shadow. She’s told that she has grown the most this week and gets a unanimous vote from the judges. After his wife makes it through, it’s Ryan Di Lello’s turn, and she’s perfectly fine with him having on as few clothes as possible. Like Ashleigh, he also receives all the votes.
Dominic Pearson was eliminated in Vegas week in season 4 due to an injury. His confidence is soon shattered by the judges, who only give him two votes. Nigel complains that he’s crying, although he’s certainly not the first one to break down tonight.
Pauline is back from the hospital on crutches. She has been told to stay off her sprained ankle for two days. As she waits to find out her fate, the remaining dancers are given one final chance to do a solo before the judges make their decision on the top 20. It seems we’ll have to keep waiting to find out what happens to her because they’re not talking yet.
Stay tuned to dingoRUE for another live recap of So You Think You Can Dance Season 6 Episode 9, which airs Tuesday at 9/8c on Fox.
