Did anyone catch the opening number of the "results" show tonight? The group did a "Thriller"-like routine (although not to MJ's song) and, from what I caught of it -- it was AMAZING! (Victorian dead!)

I saw they credited the choreographer (Wade Robson), but did anyone catch the song? I'm hoping you can tell me the artist. My guess is Moloko, but I don't know. Can anyone help???

Thanks!

DVR'd it, but haven't watched it yet. Wade comes to a studio once a month here in Houston that I used to attend. BTW, when did Mia choreograph for Prince?

YES YES YES!!! The opening act was OFF THE CHAIN. I have always like Wade's choreography. He is really talented. I have also become a fan of MIA's choreography.


My Travis is still in. Woo hoo!!!!! Did you all catch that Contemporary piece he did with Heidi. Flawless!

miguel, when did Mia choreograph for Prince?

Oh my God. I totally forgot. They did say that didn't they. I really don't know, maybe the Get Off video?

All it says in one article is that she choreographed Prince's International Tour. Yeah idiots. Which one!!!!!????

I love that show. Travis Wall is amazing. God that guy is just a mini-Misha (Baryshinkov). There is a great discussion on the Television Without Pity site. That forum is really strict, though, so read the rules before posting.

Please He dances as good as I do when I have night seizures. I was doing that shit last night to "Strays of the world".

That was the shit, better than thriller, imo


The song is called Ramalama (bang bang) and it by Roisin Murphy

Is Travis the former alcoholic that used to dance with Nick from last year?

MIGUELGOMEZ said:

Her bio says "Prince Tour 2000" Which one is that?

Travis Wall is the blond guy with the Mohawk. His specialty is contemporary/lyrical. This past week, he danced Paso Double, and a Contemporary piece choreographed by Mia Michaels. He is only 18 years old, but the guy is amazing.

Travis is my favorite guy, but the girls are just too close to call at this point, I think. There are all really strong in different genres and in different ways. It was like that last year in a way.

No, Travis isn't the former alcoholic. The alcoholic guy didn't make it past Vegas. It was like the producers focused him on the preliminary auditions, and just sort of dropped his story. The alcoholic guy wasn't even featured at the Vegas auditions.

Mia has choreographed for numerous artists, Prince and Madonna being among them. She used to have a dance company RAW= Reality At Work, but I'm not sure if it's still going. Man, Mia is a friggin genius. Her contemporary piece this past week with Travis and Heidi in particular was amazing.

BTW, former Janet dancer Tyce Diorio's choreography has been feature on the show, too. He is really sweet on the show. His choreography is pretty good, particularly his contemporary. He really is great with the contestants-really positive and upbeat.

Thanks txladykat! After hearing from you, I emailed Wade Robson directly and (surprise, surprise), he emailed me back and said his company would post it on youtube. What a nice guy! Sure enough:

So for anyone wanting to see what we've been exstatic over, check it out!

I didn't know the Moloko singer, Roisin Murphy, had a solo release. Fast forward. Now it's coming in the mail...

I'm glad I'm not the only one thrilled by the dancing!

I didn't know Wade did stuff like that. I only know him from his pop stuff

Never heard of Moloko or Roisin, but I love the song. Is Moloko any good?

r u the one i emailed the link to? yea, wade is good. i used to go to PF (planet funk). He would come there once a month for special sessions. guess he is too busy now. but, he is judging for them again next week. The competition is only open to age 35 though, and I am 36
