Seriously? OMG! WTF?

Well i am completely beside myself in the response that Ive gotten since the show ended. I cannot believe that many people would be so into the show and have support me so much. I love you all! I know many people want to write emails and such so Ive devised a way to help all of you out so thta there isnt such a flood of little messages coming in. Many people have questions about many things (tour, tickets, my telephone number(hehe), other contestant info, as well as little chatty questions….and most importantly, D.E.M.A.N.D.)…so to help answer those questions;

1. Tickets – The tour has given each top ten dancer 6 tickets to give out. Mine were given to family. That’s all i was allowed to recieve for the whole tour so with that said, I don’t have much pull on getting anyone tickets. Im am so sorry and encourage people to write the tour company(look on www.fox.com/dance for details) and petition more dates after the tour ends…maybe even a second tour. Im sorry but there aren’t any backstage passes.

2. My personal phone info/adress/email/aim stuff – I would love to give all that out but with the overwhelming response Ive recieved, Im keeping most of my comminucation via this myspace. You guys are amazing and Im trying my hardest to thank you all as personally as can be. Please be patient if there is no reply immediatly. It’s gonna take a long time!!! I have 1,000’s of emails to respond to…..and for the sake of fairness, i wont be able to message back and forth little questions for the time being….so a full email is appreciated. Questions regarding the tour and everything else will be answered right now.

3. Info on other contestants from season 2 – I love my top 20 buds!!! Most of them have myspaces as well…I can’t provide a link to them for the time being, but looking on fox.com may help in knowing more about them. Love you guys!!!

4. D.E.M.A.N.D. – WOW!!! Such a great response!!! Please read my other blog regarding demand…so much response for it…I love ya’ll and you’ll be asked to help out soon…just a few more preparations coming….so no need to email me about it…i will post a big bulletine when volunteers are needed as well as donations. Muchas Gracias!!!

– On a side note, I just wanted to thank everyone again for their support and continued support from here on. I wanted everyone to know that Hollywood hasn’t gone to my head nor has it gone to any of the top 20 dancers. We love and appreciate all of you and its my desire that you all be patient. Things are insane right now…I just got home for the first time in 3 months…and i slept in my own bed (first sleep ive gotten in 3 days since they announced the winner)…so its been cool but very tiring! If you’d like to make a comment about the show or about lil’ ol’ me, please make them in the comment section of my myspace, i really do read those you know, hehe. Emails to me would be best if they were regarding anything else i did not explain in this blog.
YOU GUYS ROCK!!! KEEP IN TOUCH!!! DANCE!!! DON’T BRUSH YOUR TEETH!!-ERR WAIT I MEAN BRUSH YOUR TEETH!!!

He so enjoys winning, that is so sweet! 

And as for his cousin Heidi Groskreutz, who was also part of this season’s Top 4, Schwimmer says she’s couldn’t be happier for him"It really didn’t matter if she had won or I had won, it’s pretty much the same thing. We’ve been dancing together for 17 years and I wouldn’t be anything without her," he says, adding all the rumours he’s having an affair with Groskreutz, Wall and finalist Donyelle Jones are ridiculous."Donyelle has a boyfriend right now — she’s a great person and very faithful — Travis … we are just really good friends. And Heidi is my cousin. I’m not from the Bayou so it’s fine — there’s no issue there either."

Jam! Showbiz 

I know many of you were wondering if Benji Schwimmer and Donyelle Jones were dating, now we know that the So You Think You Can Dance 2 dancers are not? Sorry.

Benji Schwimmer’s MySpace 

Yes this will be my last post today on Benji and SYTYCD! 

In last night’s two-hour finale of So You Think You Can Dance – which featured performances by Ciara and Fergie — swing dancer Benji Schwimmer, 22, was crowned America’s favorite dancer. He takes home $100,000 cash, a hybrid SUV, and a contract with Celine Dion’s show in Las Vegas. And though Dion made an appearance at the end of the show, congratulating the hoofer via video satellite, in an interview with Us last week, Benji said that he’s considering passing the offer on to one of his cast mates, so he can concentrate on breaking into acting. 
 
Us: What will you do with the money if you win?
B: Give some to church, give some to my charity and spend a little bit and invest the rest. I have a charity called DEMAND which stands for Dancers Everywhere Making A Needed Difference and we work with underprivileged children in Mexico and we also help other dancers out in the community who may have injured themselves and can’t support themselves we get them back on their feet.
 
Us: So would you take the Celine Dion job?
B: (sings) “My heart will go oooonnnnn…” I think more than anything, if I was to have that offer, I would give it to one of these 2 [cast mates] here and let them take it because they are the dancers fit to do that. We didn’t even know about the Celine Dion contract until we actually made the show so that was never my goal to receive a contract, my goal was to be on the show for the exposure, to be challenged as a dancer.
 
Us: You guys haven’t heard from any celebrities about how they love the show have you?
B: Tyce — that’s my choreographer – he is friends with Tobey Maguire and said that Tobey is a huge fan of the show and wants to do a dance movie. I couldn’t believe it. So I asked Tyce again and once again he’s like no I talked to him he’s dead serious…
 
Us:How would you feel about doing a movie?
B: I definitely want to get into acting. That’s without a doubt. I want to get into television and movies. When I was younger, I was doing a lot of commercials and I was on Full House.
 
Us: You were on Full House?
B: Reluctantly. I was 5 years old.
 
Us: How is a 5 year old reluctant?
B: I am reluctant now because when I did it they dubbed my voice over, there was bad sound or something and some Chinese lady dubbed over my voice…it was stupid.

I would rather him go to Broadway and Travis Wall go to Celine!
