So You Think You Can Dance – Week 5

The top six couples each perform two dances.

First up? Melissa and Ade make me dizzy with a disco routine. Lots of good stuff in it. Melissa’s body is amazing. Also, nice recovery when she falls on her booty at the end.

Kupono and Kayla take on a Mia Michaels’ piece about addiction. I thought it was beautiful though I’m STILL not getting the Kayla fascination.

Jason and Caitlin do… a foxtrot? Couldn’t find video for it. It was kinda boring.

Phillip and Jeanine do a Russian Folk Dance that looked like a really bad Epcot performance:

Randi and Evan do a Tabitha & Napoleon hip hop routine to Beyonce’s Halo.

Brandon and Janette rbing the house down with an absolutely perfect Argentine Tango… I love the tango. They were awesome.  I prefer the Bond version of Libertango, but this one will do too.

Melissa and Ade do their final dance together (the couples are broken up next week) and it’s a traditional waltz.

For Kupono and Kayla’s second piece, Nigel felt it lacked emotion…

Jason and Caitlin’s final number is a contemporary piece that left me underwhelmed.

Phillip and Jeanine do a jive… Phillip needs to go home.

Randi and Evan tackle a samba… they were kinda hard on Evan. But I’m pulling for them. I really am.

Brandon and Jeanette perform a jazz routine by Wade Robson… they were the couple of the night.

So, who’s going home? I think Phillip and maybe… Caitlin?

The top 16 take to the stage.

First up?

Karla and Jonathan take on a hip-hop routine that is so bad I can’t even find a clip of it on YouTube.

Asuka and Vitolio are next. They perform a jazz routine that seemed kind of simple. I didn’t care for it.

Melissa and Ade take on the rhumba. I love them. They’re talented and likable. The package before the performance would have you think they’d suck, but they were great.

Brandon and Jeanette do a hip-hop and rock fusion number. Brandon’s hip-hop skills surprised and impressed me and I enjoyed it.

Kupono and Karla get the Viannese Waltz. Finally, I see what the judges see in her.

Randi and Evan – My favorite performance of the night. Everything from the opening in one shoe, the slow back bend going around, the booty pops and head bobs. I love Randi and Evan! Mia Michaels hooked this number up! And this song is my first iTunes download of the season.

Caitlin and Jason do a Paso Doble that left me feeling … meh. No suitable video found, well this…

Phillip and Jeanine get a Tyce Diorio Broadway routine. I looove Broadway! I do not love this performance from Phillip.

What did you guys think? Who is going home tonight?
