So You Think You Can Dance

Summary

From a former producer of American Idol, So You Think You Can Dance brings forth, from obscurity, the country's top undiscovered dancing talents. Five of America's best choreographers have assembled 20 finalists to compete for the grand prize of $250,000. The top 10 dancers are given the oppurtunity to take part in the So You Think You Can Dance Tour . The So You Think You Can Dance finalists are diverse, their expertise ranging, and the moves displayed every week by the dancers can only be described as “ridiculous”. Watch out for judge Nigel Lythgoe, who is quite Simon Cowell-esque, and maybe even a little crankier, and Mary Murphy and her famous scream.

So You Think You Can Dance: Kourtni Lind of 'So You Think You Can Dance'

July 8, 2008

The minute Kourtni Lind hit 18, she headed to try out for So You Think You Can Dance.  On her first try, she made it to Vegas and through to the Top 20.  She has studied at her mother's dance studio since the age of 3 and graduated high school early to get her dance career started.  She was paired up with Matt Dorame this season on So You Think You Can Dance and they found themselves in the bottom group more often than they would have liked.  Last week proved to be their last as the judges sent both Matt and Kourtni home.  Today, after enjoying the holiday weekend, Kourtni talked to BuddyTV in an exclusive interview!

Below, you will find the complete transcript and mp3 of the interview.

Exclusive Interview: Matt Dorame of 'So You Think You Can Dance'

July 8, 2008

Matt Dorame has had a few days to process his elimination from So You Think You Can Dance.  He and partner Kourtni Lind were sent home on last Thursday's live elimination episode, just two weeks shy of making the Top 10.  Making it that far is a goal for all of the dancers, as it means that they make the national tour.  Still, Matt accepted the judges' decision and has no regrets about his time on the show.  Today, he spoke to BuddyTV in an exclusive interview, opening up about his partner, the other dancers, and what kept him sane during his time on So You Think You Can Dance.

So You Think You Can Dance: The Key To Success

July 4, 2008

Okay, so not everybody is on the Josh and Katee bandwagon.  This reminds me of American Idol's David Archuleta this past season.  Sure, the kid could sing but a lot of people felt that the judges were over praising him and it seemed that the wonder boy could do no wrong.  That is, until he lost to David Cook in the season finale.  Will Josh and Katee meet the same fate - staying at the top of the pack all season long until the moment that matters the most?  Staying at the top of the pack all season depends on several key factors and technique might be the least important.  Just ask Matt Dorame.  An amazing technical dancer, he had every other factor working against him and was sent home before making the Top 10, aka the group that will go out on the national tour.

So You Think You Can Dance 4: Top 14 Results Recap

July 3, 2008

So You Think You Can Dance - Kourtni Lind and Cat DeeleyThe number of dancers left on So You Think You Can Dance is steadily dwindling. Tonight the top 14 dancers became 12.

Among the notable aspects from tonight's results show was a guest performance from Robert Muraine, the amazing popper from California, who made it to Las Vegas but gave up after a day of grueling auditions. He came back tonight to show off his contortionist abilities, and even agreed to come back to battle against Phillip Chbeeb for the So You Think You Can Dance finale. Also performing was OneRepublic.

So You Think You Can Dance 4: Top 14 Live Results

July 3, 2008

So You Think You Can DanceLast night on So You Think You Can Dance, the top seven couples took the stage.  For the first time this season, each couple performed not one but two routines each, with styles ranging from the paso doble to hip hop to Broadway.

Katee and Josh wowed everyone with a hauntingly beautiful Mia Michaels contemporary piece, while Kourtni L. and Matt underwhelmed the judges with a mediocre hip hop performance.

But it's down to America's votes.  The votes have been tallied, and three guys and three girls will have to dance for their lives.  Who will they be?
