Grew up in Haiti, grew up with grandmother for awhile then ended up in an orphanage. Danced in street to make money.Sometimes it takes dancers a long time to show up in Vegas. You didn't come alive until the groups. Factoring in all that, he is factored into the top 20. Lil C gave the news.

It annoys the beep out of her. Rubbed her the wrong way. Attitude with a fake smile. There is talent but not all cracked up. Don't see it. Debbie stands up for him. Nigel intervenes so Debbie can talk. Manliness, don't judge your personality. Lil C don't impressme Mary doesn't want to listen to this and can't stand to see you torn down. I don't think you are cocky you are a fabulous dancer and don't want to listen to this crap. Nigel says you have 4 votes out of six and in the top 20. He is going to show them what he's got if they choreograph him.

Yeah, like, how is he even supposed to enjoy his good news when he's probably still thinking about all the crap they dumped on him? Mia and Lil C are entitled to their opinions, but is it really the best time to be all "We hate you, but you're in the Top 20 and I'll bet it's going to be great working with you! Except not." It just made them (especially Mia) seem really unprofessional and catty.

LAST EDITED ON 06-06-09 AT 11:13 AM (EST)"She thinks that Brandon has a cocky attitude? SHE can't handle that?" Real World Translation: "HE doesn't drop and kiss my feet when I walk into the room, HE doesn't kiss my Emmy before he walks onto the floor when I am the choreographer, and he has his own mind. I just can't handle that." I do recognize that Mia is a talented choreographer, but I get REALLY tired of her acting as if hers is the only "true" dance style. And this thing about only liking male dancers because they are so "strong" is simply satisfying her need to be idolized drooled over by male dancers while being in total control over them.

I do not get all the hate-on for Brandon. Do you think that he is so good that they are trying to bring him down a peg or that they don't want to give him the "Will" edit? Maybe this is all tactical and they want to give him an underdog edit. Really don't get it.

I think you may have something...I asked myself Brandon will either be Will-like or Josh-like...Nigel is on Brandon's side so I think the producers want him to be Josh *in that he goes to finals and not cut at top 10Although he does have a weird smile that might seem obsequious to a judge. Not defending Mia, I think she was way out of line. I do see a kumbaya moment when he does get to work with Mia and he nails it...not sure about him and the King of Krump tho, I don't think he will be that good in hip hop

58. "RE: Brandon" |
Hi there.. I am not exactly sure what Mia and Lil C had a problem with. Brandon seemed humble and if he was smiling, perhaps nerves? Frankly, I was dissapointed to hear Mia tear into him like that and Kudos to Mary, whom you dont see that angry very often for standing up to him. Mia thought he was cocky, really Mia? Yeah, I think that emmy went to your head and you feel you have the first and last word on charactor..sheesh.. What was not to be impressed about, he nailed everything from what I saw..what was the problem? I thought he was sensitive, when Natalie left (what the heck were they thinking then?!?!?) he was torn apart, no sign of cockyness there. I dont get it...in any event, I feel it should have been about the dancing and not the character, if he was so cocky and fake, no doubt the producers would have shown some clips of such behavior I would think. I didnt see anything of the sort but then again, I wasnt there. He reminds me much of Will from last season and Debbie got it. That is her type of dance style. Kudos again to Mary, Nigel, Adam and Debbie for seeing his potential and putting him through. I think of nothing else, this will light a fire under his behind and he will do just fine. He is one of my favorites already! Take care! Vicky

48. "RE: 17 are through--Alex Wong" |
They voted on all of them.2 or fewer votes you were out. (now why that 2 was capricious is in part I think from the how many of what kind of slot you have and who is in that slot). 3 jidges votes you had to dance for your life/redo the choreography. I think some of the how much time to prepare was on when they were in the group. Everyone knew they were supposed to have solos prepared. 4 votes and you were through. These shows are cast as much as they are based on talent so out of the top 10 girls they may only want 5 contemporary and they probably don't want them all the same. So if there are 10 girls all going for the same slot on the show you will see more cut for not living up to expectations, but if you see someone that is lets say hip hop and there are only two people for that slot you may see someone get through because of a bigger personality or more potential if neither one is extra-super-spectacular. I also think you get a few of who the judges will fight for and they may save up votes for those people rather than someone that is good but not in place of someone they really want.

59. "RE: 17 are through--Alex Wong" |
Yes this was tough to watch, but also, I feel that Alex should have checked first before trying to join SYTYCD. However, what a season that would have been between Brandon and Alex..that would have been amazing! With that said, I cant wait to see him next time or when his contract is up. I think it was not to smart that the ballet company would not to let him perform. As stated, it would have been wonderful publicity and I bet more $$$$ coming in as people seeing the show would go to see him perform!..they still might..LOL! But a contract is a contract and ultimatly, it was Brandons responsibility to check first..but we will see him soon I am sure! Vicky

Feels from a completely different world.Are you injured. Emotionally. Adam asks about Vegas week. Opened his mind, and he's not holding back anymore. Done really good things for me. Nobody does what you do better than you. you've grown and improved. Overall sense of loving dance. It means a lot to you. He is in the top 20.

She filled a niche (they needed more ballroom) and she is unique with her dance style and ethinic background. I am not sure how that is going to translate in audience support though (unless she can find a sick or dying family member for the sob story) I am thrilled that Mia was so hatin' on Brandon that she forgot to torpedo the ballroom people.

She's my favorite female dancer - I think she's adorable. I'm just sad they voted her partner off because they were such a great couple. Frankly, when I saw him leave, I felt like the Titanic had just hit the iceburg - there was still some hope, but the outlook was definitely not good. And when Alex left, it was like the engine sank....and then....

to me it was obvious that Evan would be the one to go through. I am sad, because Ryan deserves to be there also. He is certainly better than that tall guy they put through as a project. I still wonder if having the two bros on would have worked against either of them doing well (ie split their voters). Hopefully this way Evan can go far. I would love to see them bring Ryan around to do some choreography!

I was hoping they would give the spot to Ryan. I read somewhere that he's 30 so this is his last chance. Evan is younger and could audition for another season. I liked Ryan a little more than Evan. And the judges are right, Ryan's choreography really helped Evan.

I would have hated to have them both on the same season because I don't know if I could handle that much cheesiness. I like them individually, but whenever they were on screen together yukking it up, I found myself annoyed. They were trying too hard to be funny, or something.

...the rest of the ship just went down. Man. Evan's great and all, but Ryan was my favorite by far. So much humor, talent, and character. (And it just hit me where I've seen that face before - the fireman Eric from Big Brother 6, although Ryan is much funnier.) Oh well. I'll give it a couple of more weeks before I stop watching - there are still a couple of hopeful contenders left who might step it up a bit.

32. "Top 20" |
I just wanted to put them all in 1 post... here are our Top 20 dancers:Ade Ashley Asuka Brandon Caitlin Evan Janette Jason Jeanine Jonathan Karla Kayla Kupono Max Melissa Paris Phillip Randi Tony Vitolio I have to give a big who?? to: Ade, Ashley, Jeanine, Jonathan, Karla, Melissa, Randi and Vitolio. I only watched each audition show once this year whereas in other years I was obsessive and watched them several times, but I really don't remember seeing any of these people before. I know there was a lot of talk about the "naughty ballerina" (Melissa) from commercials, but I don't think we ever saw her on the actual show. So by my count that's 8 strangers. Way too many. I'm going to watch the audition shows again though, and see if I'm wrong.

34. "RE: Top 20" |
You don't remember them, because they didn't show them! I think they totally flubbed on auditions weeks this year. Pretty much everyone featured, was cut, and they kept their favorites so hidden, they didn't even feature them during Vegas week, let alone during the show in their Audition city. I typically like the way they handle auditions weeks and Vegas week in SYTYCD so much better than AI's auditions, because the SYTYCD auditions seem more humane, make more sense and are handled more diplomatically than the typical AI ones, which are drawn out, hateful, and boring, but this year, they must have gotten the same AI editors, because last night totally sucked, people were cut ruthlessly, meanly and incomprehensibly (Natalie) and tonight was kind of an afterthought, since they were already down to less than 40, most of whom we've never seen before. I'm bummed. I hope this doesn't bode badly for the whole season!

I've been thinking about the fact that so many who had a lot of screen time ended up being cut, and maybe I'm giving the producers more credit than they deserve, but maybe it's to help those who didn't make the show get a little more exposure. You know, like maybe someone will have caught a clip of part of their audition, and remember them when the dancers audition for something else?

71. "Editing" |
I thought of another factor in the editing process and I wonder if it's an unwritten rule or not. Every single partner/sibling/GF/BF pairing that arrived were split up, some at a very late stage but all were split. Moreover, almost everyone that we got to know from the top 20 had partner's that got cut somewhere down the line. Chbeeb (he should just go by his last name. It's too awesome) - partner Arielle got cut Asuka - Ricky was one of the final cuts Caitlin - Melissa was a late cut Brandon - Nathalie was a Day 2 cut Evan - brother Ryan was the last cut Jeanette - her partner was cut Those are pretty much the only top 20 we really got to know (and Tony) so I think there must be something to the "lost partner" storyline. That said, I watched last week's episodes again knowing the top 20 and I was surprised at how often I saw quick glimpses or comments from Jason, Vitolio, Max, Paris and I think I recognized a couple of other faces too. So, they did show them here and there.

57. "RE: SYTYCD5 Top 20 Reveal 6/4 ECST" |
I was kind of surprised and disappointed in some of the cuts (like Natalie), but I wonder if they were wanting to keep some people in their pocket for next season since it will be beginning to close to this one. Maybe they were worried about totally depleting the talent pool, so they cut some of the better dancers from this season and told them to come back for next season. That would also add to the audience draw - "look Natalie's back"! or whatever. At least that's what I'm hoping for some of them.
