It's almost time for the Top 20 to start dancing and for America to start voting on
So You Think You Can Dance. To get America acquainted with the 20 dancer's vying for the title of America's Favorite Dancer, FOX Source sat down with the Top 20 for a little interview. During the interview the dancers discuss: their very first dance performances, their experience during Las Vegas week, their strategies to win
So You Think You Can Dance, what dance style and choreography they are most worried about, and what they think of the styles they're donning for their promo photos.
FOX, it would seem, are multi-taskers, as they interview the dancers two
at a time, all while fellow dancers are taking their promo photos and
leaping about in the background. And don't get your hopes up too high
about the pairings during the interview, we've been told the interview
partners are not necessarily also each others dance partners.
Considering how great the chemistry is between a few of the pairs, most
notably: Janette and Brandon, Karla and Max, and Jeanine and Evan, we
can't help but hope FOX is faking us out and these duos really will
dance together. However, for Jason Glover's sake, we hope he's not
paired with his interview buddy, Paris Torres--he can barely contain
his distaste for the pageant queen while she's speaking. (Check out his
body language while Paris prattles on...it's priceless.)
We highly recommend taking the time to learn a little more about this season's dancers by checking out the interview. Considering we hadn't seen or heard of a handful of the Top 20 (Jeanine Mason, Karla Garcia, and Jason Glover...I'm looking at you) these interviews can serve as an introduction to those dancers. While there's no actual dancing in the clips, much like the Top 20 announcement show, I have to admit I have a few new favorites based on the spunky personalities on display in these interviews alone.
