So You Think You Can Dance choreographer and Salsa dancer Alex Da Silva was arrested for allegedly sexually assaulting and raping four of his students according to The LA Times.
Authorities said that the four vicitims were all students of Da Silva at the time of the assaults. “The victims allege that he lured them to his homes in North Hollywood and Van Nuys,” the police said in a statement. “He then used a ruse to get them into his bedroom, where he raped them.”
He is currently being held for on $3.8 million bail and police are asking for other alleged assault victims to contact them. That is crazy and sick if it is true. And if it is true, they should lock him up and throw away the key.
There are two things I like most about American Idol ending its season on May 20th! The first is that it is finally over, but the better reason is because the next night (5/21) So You Think You Can Dance is back!!! I personally prefer SYTYCD way over AI! I love to watch the dances that they do! Some of them will stay with you forever because they are so beautiful and well choreographed! And now that dancers from SYTCD are graduating to Dancing with the Stars, it is making more excited for both shows!!!
BTW just because SYTYCD announced their return date, that doesn’t mean they are done with auditions. If you want show off your moves on the next SYTYCD and be the next SEX than checkout the SYTYCD casting page for more info!!!
So tonight is finally the night that we find out who wins So You Think You Can Dance and what a season it has been! I am sad to see it end.
How exhausting was that number with Twitch and Joshua? After watching it, it is obvious to see why both were hospitalized for dehydration over the weekend.
When it comes to the winner, I think (and hope) that it is Joshua. If the ratings that Mark Berman posted are accurate…
I think that it will be Joshua. That is because the largest amount of viewers saw him do three dances, while Courtney will be in trouble because her first two dances were in the first half hour. I think that the hip hop dance she did with Twitch was the best of the night.
Finally I don’t know if I am just so over Mia Michaels, but I think that the dance she created for the final four sucked. Oh well hopefully there will be a lot less of her next season and I am just not talking about her weight!
Two of the four So You Think You Can Dance finalists were hospitalized over the weekend for dehydration according to People. Who those two are that has not been revealed.
“Two went in [Saturday] and so there was no more rehearsals, and today [Sunday] all the rehearsals were called off,” ballroom expert and SYTYCD judge Mary Murphy confirmed to PEOPLE at Fox’s 2008 Teen Choice Awards in L.A. on Sunday. “The kids are completely dehydrated – two of them. I’m sure they’re doing a lot of blood work to see if there’s anything else."
Murphy went on to explain that in all fairness, “the other two [dancers] could not rehearse as well, and so hopefully everybody is going to be in the same boat…hopefully everybody will be refreshed by having a full day off.”
Leading up to the finale, the dancers have been putting in 10 to 12 hour rehearsals a day, because “they want it so bad,” says Murphy, adding “so, they keep pushing themselves and pushing themselves and not letting anybody know that, ‘Hey, I’m running on empty,’ and then it catches up on them and then they collapse.”
A source from the show told People that the two dancers were doing better and were expected to rehearse today before they tape the final dance show of the season. Hopefully all four will be OK for tonight's taping because it would suck to get this far and lose out at the end. What are they doing to the dancers this season? One had to drop out because of broken ribs and now two of them are hospitalized for dehydration.
UPDATE: It was the boys Twitch and Joshua who were rushed to the hospital according to Us Weekly. And the two men aren’t the only injured ones, Mary Murphy sprained her ankle yesterday at TC08.
“She tripped down a shortened stair a few inches from the Jonas Brothers as they were walking in front of the stage at the Gibson Amphitheater,†the source explains. “She was treated by medics, her ankle was wrapped, and she was wheeled out in a wheelchair as the show was ending.â€Â
Imagine how loud Mary Murphy must have screamed when she fell?
Well it took Fox long enough to pick up the Emmy nominated So You Think You Can Dance for a 5th season for next summer! Forget American Idol this is my favorite competition show! Hopefully Mia Michaels won’t be back as Judge next season, I can do without her stupid comments and made-up words.
I can’t wait to see who they find next season and what dances they make them do, but until then…Go Joshua!!!
