Ballroom Round - a round catered for only the ballroom dancers in the competition?

I'm back! Yep, Rebecca is back with her comments... Watch the dancefloor for Ballroom round and what can i say? First and foremost, this round seems to be only catered for the 2 ballroom couples left in this competition. Don't you think so? Come on... this is their forte! To be good in ballroom, it takes years of training and hardwork. How can u make the rest of the dancefloor competitors compete against these 2 ballroom champs? (by which i mean Melvin & Sharon and Vas and Pris)

Oh whatever... enough said... DOwn to comments and critiques proper...

Let me start off with the bottom 3:

1. JDI

2. E Squared

3. Soul Fusion

Now, based on what the judges choose this week, it clearly shows how lousy this whole competition is! (No i'm not referring to the competitors, i'm referring to the PRODUCERS of this show)

They chose to save JDI over E Squared. Based on weekly performances, i believe that E squared puts up a better performance than JDI. Don't get me wrong, i love JDI, they're so comical but based on techniques wise, they ain't so apt..

When the judges announced JDI as the 1st team to be saved i knew it was over for E Squared. Poor girls. Think they did pretty well in this show. But after whatever's been said, "The show must go on".

Goodbye E Squared... You guys are the best improved group in this competition =)

Now back to the Ballroom performance round:

1. Vas and Pris

It's their forte. Come on! What do ou expect me to say? How long have they been dancing Ballroom and how many ballroom competitions have they joined and won? Well, their dance was nothing short of perfect. Just one thing that bothered me tho, "Pris, what's my table cloth doing as part of your outfit?". *Grinz*

2. SOul Fusion

I disagree with the judges. I thought Their ballroom performance was definitely top 4 material (Not to mention that the 2 spots are taken up by M&S and V&P). It wasn't as bad as what the judges mentioned. I loved how daphane played the man in the dance. She can really flip her partner around. Gosh, does she do that to her boyfriend too (if she has one =p). The stunts were great. They were the only group to do stunts this week. So Kudus to Soul fusion for pulling off the ballroom performance.

3. JDI

Boring, uninteresting, made me fall asleep. Whats up with so many stomping? I know its part of the genre but not too much of it right? Overall, it was the worst performance of the night.

4. F4

I loved their item. Thought that they did pretty good in fact =) Great choreography and good use of space although its only the 3 of them.

5. Melvin and Sharon

Singapore's Ballroom CHAMPIONS! what can we expect but the best from them isn't it? I thought the dance got a bit slow in the middle and bland. WHat do you think? Loved the costumes and i'm glad sharon didn't put too much tan this time round. ANyway, i was hoping for more so i thought this performace was ~ok for me.

6. Platinum

*Flashback*

Doesn't the starting look a bit like Victoria's Secret show? Hmm... I was wondering how much of originality was in it. Starting was good. Dance wasn't so Ballroom for me. I thought i was watching Crazy horse or something. However, they were sexy hot babes so who can resist?

I'm not going to give my Top and bottom 3 for this week... There's no point. It's a competition for the rich. ISn't it true? M&S and V&P has NEVER been in the bottom 3 though their performance round for some genres wasn't so 'Wow'. Those who learn from 'Shawn and Gladys' must be pretty well off to be spending that amount of money on classes.

So i'll end off this week with a side note: You never know who will fall into the bottom 3 each week. It's definitely not based on the skills of techniques the competitors have. It's how much the judges like them.

Love,

Rebecca ("v")
