So last week on SYTYCD we got our final 10. I had predicted 8 of 10, so I was pretty darn pleased with myself. Sabra and Dominic are both still around, which I didn't initially predict. Sabra is quickly becoming one of my favorites, so I totally missed the boat on that one. But I don't like Dominic and don't think he should be there. Hok totally got jipped!
The guest judge for the week was Mia, so I was bummed initially because the guest judges don't get to choreograph routines for the show. But they do get to choreograph a group number for the results show... I think I was more excited for this than I was for the results!
God Bless Mia Michaels.
And Danny Tidwell, too! (PS- I don't care if he is arrogant; He is AMAZING and I love him!)
This weekend was the Broadway Barks festival over in the Schubert Alley. So I didn't actually get to attend it because I was working at the Fresh Fruit Festival down in Greenwich Village (which was not quite as much fun as I had hoped it would be...) but I did catch the photos from the event on my various Broadway sites (aka: my drug of choice!).
Is it just me, or is a guy just so much hotter when he has a dog? Perhaps it gives him a more earthly and ruffian quality. You know, that whole "man with beast" thing...
Or maybe it's that you know that a guy with a dog has the capacity to be caring and kind, and seeing him with his pooch perhaps make you yearn for the same affectionate attention.
Whatever it is, HOT GUY + DOG = FUNNY IN THE TUMMY!
Do demonstrate my point, I've included a few photos of favorite leading man, Raul Esparza.
We're almost down to the final 10 dancers on "So You Think You Can Dance". Next week, one couple will be dismissed by the judges from America's bottom three, and then the fate of the five remaining couples will be purely in the hands of the voters.
The lack of judge's input could prove to be fateful for two of the judges' favorites: Anya and Danny. While they are both phenomenal dancers, it seems that America just isn't loving them because they both keep ending up in the bottom three. Is it because Anya is foreign? I doubt it; I mean, foreign works for Pasha...
Might I guess that it has more to do with the fact that Danny comes off as an arrogant A-hole? Hmmm....
Somethings gotta give with those two, because the judges will no longer be able to save them from the voters after next week.
Here are a couple of highlights from this week!
My favorite couple is still Lacey & Kameron. She is by FAR the best girl in the competition; I don't think there is anything she can't do! I think Kameron is one of the weaker remaining boys; He has nothing on Danny or Neil's technique. But I think that America, like myself, can't get over how charming and HOT the boy is! This week they drew the hustle, and the choreographer gave them a New York Hustle, which is actually a dance that I studied in my extensive ballroom curriculum. The routine was great, and they were wonderful!

While I can see why Danny and Anya may not have the most appealing personas, they are RIDICULOUS dancers. Danny is professionally trained with world class ballet technique. Just watch his leaps!

In looking at the people who could be named the Final 10 next week, I realize that I am only missing one of the people that I had originally placed in my predicted Final 10 - Jessi. She was sent packing last week after being ill and not performing well in her 30 seconds to save her life.
If I had to guess, it would be Anya that I would place in the Top 10 in her stead.
But only time will tell… Tune in next Wednesday to…
I would like to take this opportunity to introduce you to Buck, of "What The Buck?!"
He is one of those uber-trendy video bloggers that are so hot right now. But unlike others who VB, he is actually funny!
He's a 20-something gay guy with more energy than a chihuahua on crack, which is not normally all that appealing. But there is just something about Buck…. I'm not sure if it's his wit, or those seriously hot teal frames, I just know that I like him WAY better than "Ask A Gay Guy" V.B.er, William Sledd.
You should go subscribe to him. It's a great way to kill time when your job sucks and you either have nothing to do or no motivation to tackle the HUGE binder full of old reconciliation reports that someone else should have done well over a year ago and didn't and now the buck has passed to you…
Last week I diligently sought out who I felt were the hottest 100 guys for an albeit trendy summer posting, wittingly called "The HOT 100".
And then, today, I stumbled across an article about the upcoming film "10,000 B.C." starring Steven Strait on my new favorite Online Gay Bible, AfterElton.com.
I feel the need to make an adjustment to my list. As you can see, I failed to remember the VERY hot Steven Strait in the rankings. In case you don't know who he is, here are some photos from the film "The Covenant". If you didn't see the movie, I'd recommend renting it. It's not very good, but GOOD LORD! The Boys are H-A-W-T!
I don't know that I could replace anyone on the original list, so I am asking you to simply look beyond the limitations of quota, and accept that my Hot 100 is now only loosely so...
