SYTYCD circa 2k9

Well, ladies and gents; get your jealous caps on because I have a great story for you. If you know me, be it a little or a lot, I'm sure you know how much I love SYTYCD. Well, that may be an understatement, the truth is, I am slightly obsessed with this show. I think it is the greatest thing EVER. I love to watch it, I love to vote every week, I love to reenact the dances, and I love to go to the concerts. Which is what I did this past weekend with some great friends... allow me to introduce--
Tawna, Amanda, Dana and Myself.

We had a great time at the show. This past season was pretty good (but nothing compared to season 4---See, it had my lover on that season, you may have heard of him, his name is Twitch). So, like I was saying, this past season was pretty good, but it was SO much better to see it live. It is amazing, you can feel such emotion watching them dance. And it is so unbelievable what these dancers can do. **In my heart, I am a true dancer. In reality, well, let's just say that I wouldn't make it to Vegas week.... but no worries, I don't let that get me down, I still dance all over the house (yeah, it's probably a good thing that I am home alone most of the time)
Anywho, the show was great, but one thing that I look forward to the most is meeting the dancers after wards. See, in the past, it has been outside and this is what we were prepared for. Amanda was in the car getting warmed up and I went to save us a place in line, see.....

I know I look pathetic, but I am a true groupie. Good news: we were only out there for a few minutes when this guy came out on his megaphone and said that there was going to be a change of plans. The change was that we all got to go inside with the dancers. See, there really weren't many people outside waiting, so it worked out real good for us.

We went in and it started with Ade. Who was super cute.
I know this is annoying to have it sideways, sorry! Just turn your head.
Then we went over to Phillip. Amanda wanted to challenge him to a dance off, but he had a torn ligament so he couldn't. We think that was just an excuse because he was too scared to compete against Amanda and her super sweet moves!

Then we met Brandon. I totally understand that he is fully gay, but come on, check out his muscles, this was CRAZY!!! He was so solid!
Then there was Evan. Who doesn't LOVE Evan?!? He was just as cute in person. I checked up on Ryan (his brother that also tried out, along with season 6, but didn't make either one) And he said that he is doing great. Just got back from a trip to Spain and joined some dance company. So, for those of you who cared (such as I) that is what Ryan is doing.

Then we met Kayla. Now I will admit, she drove me nuts this season, mainly because the judges loved her so much. But she was pretty cool, and totally gorgeous in person!!
Randi was the only on in the top ten that was from Utah. (well, Brandon is living in Utah, but he is from Miami) So it was fun to meet her, she was so so cute. And for those of you who remember the Butt Dance, we got a good Butt shot with her....
Then there was Kupono. He was so freaking annoying during the show, but afterward in person, he was normal. (except for the string in his ear--remember Amanda?!?!?)
Then we met Janett. She was my absolute favorite. One of the best of the season and definitely my favorite of the night. She was so super tiny!!! But had the biggest personality in the whole group! There is more to Janett's story, but that will come....We then made our way over to meet Jason. He was adorable! I was so excited to ask him if him and Jeanine were dating, when we asked ( I think Amanda asked him) he said no. Then he said that he was dating Janett! I didn't believe him, I may have even called him a liar and then I think he started to get a little bugged, Jason was great though. Jeanine was next. She was so super cute and her hair was Be.A.Utiful!!! I really liked her. During the show, it was probably her and Ade that amazed me the most, I mean they were both great on tv, but to see them dance in person, I just can't even describe.....Last, but not least, we met Melissa. She was so fun, and actually had more of a personality that I thought she would. (And, yes, I know they were fake, but she had gorgeous eyelashes too.)
So back to Janett. Amanda wanted to ask her about Jason, so she did. (which is just one of the reasons I heart Amanda) The coolest thing about Janett was that she told us the whole story about how she was dating this guy and how they broke up and when and how she and Jason met and then about her family and him. I just loved it, she was the best.

So that was our night. Very very fun! Season 6 is on now and it is going to be a good one! I have some favorites, they are Karen, Russel and Legacy. Don't judge me if I may have voted more than I can count on my hands (and feet) last night for them. I am just doing my part to ensure their spot in the top ten so when they come on concert, we will be able to meet.
