Who Went Home on SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE?

July 16, 2009 by  

The judges don’t have a say, and this time it’s up to America. Ten become eight as one more guy and one more girl are eliminated from the competition in tonight’s SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE!

Unfortunately I’m not going to be able to live blog tonight’s SYTYCD show, but I will be posting the names of the eliminated dancers as they are announced (ah the beauty of an iPhone).

Here’s where I need YOUR help! Since I’m going to be away from the TV, I’m really hoping some of you will do the live blogging for me…in the comments. Share your thoughts on everything from the opening number (I hear it’s going to be a Wade piece), to what Cat’s wearing (which will surely be faboosh), to which dancers go home (by money is on Kupono & Randi). I’m going to be relying on YOUR comments to keep me in the loop for a change.

Any volunteers?

Update:
Bottom two girls – Melissa & Rand
Bottom two guys – Kupono & Ade

Going home tonight are RANDI and Kupono!!

Thanks to both of these talented dancers!!

And thanks to the GMMR readers that kept me up to date on tonight’s show since I couldn’t be in front of the TV.

Your thoughts on tonight’s eliminations?

    Melissa featured dancer? You couldn’t even tell which guys was which.

  2. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:05 pm

    And what the hell is Cat wearing?

  3. Vanessa on July 16th, 2009 9:09 pm

    Cat is super shiny! No Nigel? I can handle the break from him for one week. The opening wasn’t my favorite, but it was pretty good.

  4. Stephanie on July 16th, 2009 9:10 pm

    Please keep me posted you East Coasters! I can’t wait 3 more hours to find out if my hometown dancer Jason is safe!

  5. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:12 pm

    I am totally OK with Ladies Night!

  6. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:18 pm

    Bottom two? Randi &

  7. Vanessa on July 16th, 2009 9:18 pm

    Melissa and Randi as the bottom two girls. Not surprising. I’m guessing Randi is on the way out…

  8. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:20 pm

    Melissa! is #2

  9. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:21 pm

    I am guessing Randi too but I am happy that America put Melissa in the bottom two. I still think all the girls are better than some of the guys.

    Thank you

  11. Give Me My Remote on July 16th, 2009 9:25 pm

    Keep the updates coming.

  12. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:26 pm

    Jason and his frightening gold tennis shoes are safe

  13. Vanessa on July 16th, 2009 9:26 pm

    Finally attempting to get a gravatar while on commercial…not going well so far. I feel very challenged while trying to pick a nickname!

  14. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:27 pm

    Snap! Even is safe. I am surprised.

  15. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:28 pm

    Kapono in the bottom two not surprise there

  16. Give Me My Remote on July 16th, 2009 9:29 pm

    I wish you all could see me now sitting at a fancy dinner on my iPhone. I’m an ass.

  17. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:29 pm

    America didn’t like Ade? Wow. Attack of the shorties!

  18. Vanessa on July 16th, 2009 9:29 pm

    Kapono…not surprising. Ade?! I guess it had to be someone and he didn’t hasn’t really shown the personality the others have yet.

  19. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:30 pm

    I can picture it because I have done it too!

  20. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:30 pm

    I am excited for Fame!

  21. Kerry on July 16th, 2009 9:31 pm

    Is Debbie Allen involved with the new Fame?

  22. Vanessa on July 16th, 2009 9:31 pm

    GMMR: A girl has got to have priorities! At least you went to dinner even though SYTYCD is on!

  23. Vanessa on July 16th, 2009 9:33 pm

    I’m excited for Fame too! The commercials at least make me excited that it might be good.

  24. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:34 pm

    She is listed as Principle Simms. Nothing listed about choreography that I can see at a quick glance

  25. Lisa on July 16th, 2009 9:34 pm

    This is the part of the show I always hate. As soon as it’s up to “America” to vote, the best dancers end up get eliminated. ADE, ARE THEY SERIOUS???? I assume it will be Kupono to go home (which I’m OK with) but I still think it should be Evan to go home this week.

  26. Vanessa on July 16th, 2009 9:35 pm

    Did they show the song Randi danced to? I really liked it but the stupid storm warning is covering where they show the song!

  27. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:38 pm

    Dream by Priscilla Ahn?

  28. Lisa on July 16th, 2009 9:40 pm

    My favorite dancers never win SYTYCD. S1 my favorite was Melody (although I like Nick). S2 my favorite was Travis. S3 my favorite was Danny. S4 I was rooting for Will (he could out dance any of them). This season I’m torn between Jeanette, Kayla and Jeanine. Of the guys I think Ade is my favorite.

  29. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:40 pm

    Back to Fame. Did I know that Kherington Payne was in it?

  30. Vanessa on July 16th, 2009 9:40 pm

    Thanks! Wasn’t that the same solo Kupono did last night? Do they always repeat the same solo?

  31. Lisa on July 16th, 2009 9:42 pm

    Yep, Kupono did the same solo.

  32. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:43 pm

    Honestly? If the solo doesn’t catch me in the first 2 seconds I get distracted and read my Twitter so I wouldn’t’ be able to tell you about the solos!

  33. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:44 pm

    Except I can tell you that is the same ugly ass outfit Melissa wore last night with the giant black bike shorts!

  34. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:46 pm

    Debbie talking about America being spoiled kinda pisses me off. The judges have not been doing much real constructive criticism so it is almost totally a who has the best dance/costume that gets the votes.

  35. Vanessa on July 16th, 2009 9:47 pm

    Apparently I didn’t notice Melissa’s outfit last night. I’m with you Patty that I get bored with some solos and go back to the internet! I guess Ade did the same solo too. Perhaps Randi and Melissa did too…their solos were not memorable enough for me to notice.

  36. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:48 pm

    A little OT but has Fergie always had giant boobs?

  37. Vanessa on July 16th, 2009 9:49 pm

    I don’t think they were that giant before…

  38. Lisa on July 16th, 2009 9:50 pm

    Funny how the musical guests on this show always have the lamest dancers.

  39. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:51 pm

    I just noticed the on BEP was wearing a MJ Thriller jacket.

  40. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:55 pm

    No surprise. Randi is out

  41. Vanessa on July 16th, 2009 9:55 pm

    So long to Randi! I did like her, but she hasn’t really gotten into many of the different styles.

  42. Lisa on July 16th, 2009 9:56 pm

    I kinda liked Randi’s unitards.

  43. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:56 pm

    I will say Randi and Evan had some fun dances

  44. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:57 pm

    America got it right I think. Bye Kapono

  45. Lisa on July 16th, 2009 9:57 pm

    Whew! Ade is safe. Bye Kupono. I liked your quirkiness. But Ade should be one of the top 2 guys.

  46. Vanessa on July 16th, 2009 9:58 pm

    They did have some fun dances! And Kupono…perhaps he should have kept the hair! Seeing his audition reminded me how much I liked his hair!

  47. Patty on July 16th, 2009 9:59 pm

    I liked his hair too but Nigel I think thought it was too “girly”

  48. Vanessa on July 16th, 2009 10:01 pm

    I don’t know that Nigel should call anyone too girly…

  49. Kimber on July 17th, 2009 12:21 am

    So sad that I missed the live blogging tonight!! I had a semi party (if you can call two gals a party!) with a friend, and we didn’t have the opportunity to get online during it. However, next week we’ll be at MY place, so I’ll make sure to get HER online here!

    Definitely saw Randi and Kupono coming … doesn’t mean I liked it any better, but I guess it’s easier to handle if you see it coming. I really loved Randi, but seeing her paired with Kupono was “eh” for me. I think Kupono is pretty spectacular too, but his solo didn’t amaze me. It’s going to get harder and harder each week, though, to watch people go! And I’m Canadian – so I honestly have no say in this!!! Ack!

  50. Linz on July 17th, 2009 12:39 am

    i totally expected it to be randi and kopono. i think the reason randi stayed in so long is because she was partnered with evan. even has a huge fan base (including me) so i dont think he will be leaving for a couple of weeks. and i think melissa and ade were in the bottom because people assume they are safe and dont vote.

  51. Kristen on July 17th, 2009 2:46 am

    Thanks for updating even though you were away from the TV. My DVR cut off the program before they announced who went home from the guys and Ade is my SYTYCD boyfriend! I needed to know he was safe! I predicted that Randi and Kupono would be going home. I think that Paso Doble did them in. Poor guys, but someone had to go.

  52. Judy on July 17th, 2009 8:23 am

    I am always wrong and I like the ones sent home. Randi was my favorite dancer of all. How can I be so wrong? argghhh..going to bed now

  53. Michele on July 17th, 2009 9:34 am

    Fergie definitley had some work done.

    Boo – Randi went far in my fantasy pool. That stinks.

    The umbrella dance, the park bench AND RamaLama next week? AWESOME!!

  54. strunkette on July 17th, 2009 11:07 am

    I love Cat but last night was a miss for me. Shiny pillowcase and bad hair. I know you can work it girl! I’ll call in a momentary lapse in judgment and forget all about it 🙂

    It was sad to see Kupono go, but it was time. I was overjoyed to see Jason sent to safety first…woohooo BF Jason!
