Yet Another Obsession

So y'all thought my only current obsession was American Idol, right? Wrong. *sigh* Thanks to AI producers Simon Fuller and Nigel Lythgoe, I have a summer time obsession...So You Think You Can Dance. And somewhere in the midst of my Cookie Overload of the last couple of weeks, I realized that a new season was starting. Yay!

On the first night of audition footage, we got yet another try from Sex and from the Gold Inferno. Oy. Seriously Nigel, if you're sick of them, why do you keep airing their auditions? If you don't want them to come back next year, the best way to accomplish that is by not giving them their 15 seconds of fame. That's the only reason they keep coming back.

Now, someone worth watching from the first night of auditions in LA? Wow...check out Robert Muraine!



Another Popper who you might recognize from last season is Twitch. He's back, and he's headed to Hollywood again. And Nigel told him he'll kick his ass if he doesn't make it onto the show this year. LOL. Watch his audition from this season. He's awesome.



Phillip Cheeb also came back for another shot at it. Let's see how he does in Vegas! But first, here is his LA audition.



Other standouts for me from the first night of auditions were Devon Oshiro and Kherington Payne.

And a particularly moving audition, for me at least, was that of William Wingfield.



More soon!
