Reality Shows Make Me Cry – So You Think You Can Dance Results Show

The following contains spoilers for the So You Think You Can Dance results show. Stop reading if you’ve TiVo’d the show.

What’s wrong with me? I am an emotional wreck because someone got kicked off a reality show? Seriously…seriously? Yup, I am. I guess this is what is going to be like from now on, seeing that I love ALL of the remaining contestants. Tonight’s elimination show had Natalie, Allison, Ryan, and Travis in the bottom four spots. Each one danced their final solo before Cat gave us the results.

First the girls…

Natalie and Allison have both been incredibly strong throughout the competition. Natalie has been a force to be reckoned with since day one, and Allison has proven herself to be the most versatile of all the dancers in the competition. But one had to leave, and in a move that left me speechless, Allison was the one to say goodbye. I’m so bummed. I really thought it was Nat’s turn to leave. It was really tough to see Allison try to hold it together and not cry, especially with Natalie crying a river (per usual), but it killed me to watch Ivan and Travis get so emotional. Did you see everyone consoling Travis right before Allison’s solo? Um, and sTravis’s presence and participation during Allison final performance was interesting. I thought for sure he was going to jump her right there on the stage. And then of course we would have seen Ivan and Travis throwdown Sharks/Jets style. Come to think of it…

Goodbye Allison…you will be missed.

Next up – the boys.

Although it was surprising to see Travis, and not Ivan, in the bottom 2 tonight, I wasn’t really stressed about this elimination. It was Ryan’s time and he knew it. Both Ryan and Travis performed amazing solos tonight, but it in the end it was Ryan who we said goodbye to.

As emotional as I was tonight, I can’t imagine what it’s going to be like next week when I have to say goodbye to Benji, Travis, or Ivan. And let’s face it…my little Jailbait Ivan is most likely going to be the one to go, so I’m going to try to start preparing myself now. For the girls, I think Heidi is going to be safe, and it’s going to be Natalie up against Donyelle for the final spot. I personally think Natalie is an overall better dancer than Donyelle, but it really all depends on how they are partnered up next week.

I’m going to need some time to get over Allison’s departure. I’ll see you at the Wang Center on October 7th girl….so until then!!!

Despite my dark mood, I found one thing that made me smile tonight. Check out this BEYOND ADORABLE picture of Benji and Cousin Heidi when they were just little kids. AW!
