During rehearsal Gev is excited because he gets to "give Courtney the message" which means giving her the crotch bump. I believe that message is "Play hard to get it all you want - this Russian sub's gonna dive!"

They're dancing to "Please Don't Stop the Music" by Rihanna which I loooooove! AND their dance is fantastic! I would love to be able to bust these moves out on the dance floor when the song comes on in a club. However I think the "message" I'd give would be "Watch out!!! He's gonna bloooow!"

It might just be me but I think this is one of the best dances of the night so far - really clean and highly entertaining. The only part that was weird was the final move where Courtney writhes in Gev's arm. It looks like she's having a seizure...

In which she morphs from Courtney... into one of the Supremes.

Nigel tells Courtney how sexy she is. And that although the dance wasn't technically perfect - it was very fun to watch. He also makes fun of Gev for pursing his lips too much. Apparently he's jealous of someone who has lips.

Mary screams "It was magic!" and "It was hot cha-cha-cha-cha!" Mary agrees that the technicality was off but because of their presence and connection with each other it didn't matter. Hmm - why do I have a feeling if it was the same for other couples they would've been skewered?! Regardless, Mary still puts them on el Tren de los Tamales Calientes.

Mia thinks it was "Fabulosity at its best" and follows with "You guys are not the best dancers on the show - that is clear." It's like her body rejects being positive for more that 5 seconds at a time. She has "Judging Tourette's Syndrome".

Cat then asks Gev if he shaved his chest. He blushes and says he did to which Nigel asks "Did you shave it or wax it?!" WHAT?! Why the hell would he ask that?! And then he's all puzzled when Gev uses the word "trimmed". I was waiting for follow ups of "Boxers or Briefs?", "Briefs or Commando?", "Spit or Swallow?!" but luckily Cat cut him off with "That would've been awful (if he didn't shave), (Courtney) would have had hair in her teeth!" Yup. This show is CLASS.

Up next - Twitchington dancing Krump with Lil' C. Kton says she has a "little gangsta" in her. Really? What's his name? Hey oh! (Gimme a break it's 3am.)

Lil' C says this is going to be "BUCK". This is "Krump Talk" for "Super!". Kton is worried she is not "feelin' it" so they dress her up and try to make her look "Buck".

She looks bucking retarded.

They start their Krump and Twitch hits the stage with fierce buckness. Then Kton comes out with a mild touch of fierceness - at least you can tell she's trying. That maternity haircut is NOT helping though.

They're definitely trying to hit the beats hard and represent "Thug Life". It's pretty good but I think it gets a little old after awhile. Kind of feels like the same moves over and over. Although...

getthebuckout.png

I like the move where Twitch tells Kton to get the buck out of his face.

Cat asks Nigel what he thought of the dance...

nigelcrapping.png

But she apparently catches him at a bad time. Now this is how "buck" is made.

Nigel says that on paper "this was the equivalent of Busta Rhymes and Miley Cyrus". Wow - I'd like to see Annie Leibowitz photograph THAT. But he says they pulled it off and it was fantastic.

Nigel also says that the energy dropped in the end but because the first half was so good he'll just forget it. WHAT?!?! This is a night of double standards folks! There's NO WAY he would've have said that to other couples! Treachery!!!

Mary says it's the first time she's believed in Krump. Apparently before this Krump existed somewhere between Santa and the Tooth Fairy for her. She was surprised at how "gangsta" Kton was. She'll be even more surprised when K-ton jumps her in the parking lot later. That'd be buck!

Mia calls it "Dirty, disgusting, stank and buck - buuuuck!" and "Scary! It was your life!" What?!?! How the buck does she know that?! I hope she knows something and she's not just assuming. Although she is friends with THE Tyce Diorio so I'm guessing she has super powers or something.

Mia also calls Kton out for getting tired in the end and AGAIN says she'll let it go! You know Comfort is backstage going "W...T....F!?!"

The still of poor Jessica from the end of the quickstep...just before she was ripped to shreds by rabid Mia...made me laugh for a good five minutes. Then I felt sad for her. They really have humiliated that poor girl in so MANY ways.

Gev and Courtney are incredibly over-rated. Their cha-cha was more disco than anything else.

And Twitchington's second number was the victim of bad choreography.

You're right on the money about the double standards. It's like some weeks they dismiss people because of a bad solo (when dancing for their lives) and other weeks they give a pass on a bad solo "based on their body of work." Yeah. Right. Different rules for different dancers.

I loved the Bollywood number, but I think it's "sleeping deer" not "dear."

I commend you for you fortitude in recapping this show. I can't imagine having to listen to Mia, Mary, and Nigel closely enough to actually quote them.

asmaj:

Jessica did not deserve the treatment that she got. She did not do as bad as the judges say. Kherington and Comfort are worst than Jessica. I think the judges and the show have an agenda and want one of the black guys to win, esp Will, since he is Debbie's student. Mia is a complete B*TCH. She needs to stick to dance and not judge ever again.

Gev/Courtney are totally overrated.

I think Jessica left on her own (seeing that the judges just didn't like her). I think they made up this injury.I just find it all too convenient for her to get injury right as she got to top 10. I am happy she decided to go and how she finds success somewhere else where they are more supportive.

cattyfan:

Poor Jessica...but I'm sure they'll just let Will continue as a solo act. After all, the attitude is he's too wonderful to be anyone's partner anyway.

bigjr6633:

Mia was a complete bitch to Jessica, that was totally uncalled for. I wouldn't be suprised if Jessica left because she was tired of those damn judges.

I agree with the first 2 comments, Gev/Courtney are overrated, that first dance was not a real cha-cha, it felt like a joke to me and I still have the Twitch itch.

e777:

will someone tell me how to do this please? im an idiot. im new and am trying to figure out how to subscribe to a few of the recaps. please help!!!

this was the funniest recap i have ever read. i laughed out loud a ton. i do not know how jessica keeps it together with those a**holes. complete crap! shes better than courtney who is cuter. courtney is annoying!!!

jenday:

Okay. I just can't take it. I finally have to say something.

The judges have been ridiculously hard on Jessica this ENTIRE season...

You know what? She may not be PERFECT, but she is far from the atrocity Mia makes her out to be.

After Tweedle-Dum (the wife from the "hip hop" team) said that she was bringing Will down after that AMAZING Heart performance, I have been worried for our poor Jessica. She took it with grace and a smile, and so I've been on Team Jessica ever since.

When the judges told Kerrington, that they would just ignore the last part of her routine, I literally jumped up off the couch and screamed "Would they *#@!-ing say that to Jessica?" The answer is no!

After Mia did say so melodramatically, "Will, you're tired...etc." I noticed that Nigel and Mary both had their heads down, as if wanting to distance themselves from Mia's insanity.

On the results show, I was proud of our bedazzled Mary for saying that she was going to fight for Jessica. I think that was in direct response to Mia's comment.

Finally, on one of the results shows, I noticed that Jessica had a bandage on her ankle, so maybe it was a legit injury. However, who is going to be pay for all the therapy bills she is going to need?

Is it going to come from Mia's weekly weed and food bills? I think not.

K, I'm done. By the way, I love your recaps. I laugh every time!

leslie_pcc:

I actually thought that Comfort and Thayne's hip hop routine was pretty good. No, it didn't look like they wanted to bone each other up there, but maybe it shouldn't always look like that.

Also, I thought when Will slid across the stage he looked like Jessie, the old crippled dog on Family Guy.

Lastly, the judges comments were horrible this week. From Nigel sexually harrassing everyone, to Mary making up weird equations, to Mia just being a downright C*NT. I wish they just showed the dances and then Cat gave the numbers to call. That way, the judges wouldn't be influencing America one way or the other.

blazergirl:

I think that if Mia could get away with it, she would murder Mary. I'm pretty sure she's not a fan. Everytime Mary screamed, Mia hunched down and pulled her hat as far down on her head as she could.

KikiC:

I absolutely hate Mia. I can only hope that the show got a bunch of people emailing/writing/calling after that rude comment from her to Jessica. Completely uncalled for.

And I loved the shout out to Mrs. Swan! Yea! Mad TV!

Great recap!!

Memememe:

It's hard to get a lot of dish going on these recaps, as good as they are, when they're not posted til the morning of next week's show... plus we all know the outcome of last week's results show. Sorry to say it out loud. I know it must be hard to get through these things. But last year it was kind of uproarious and fun in the comments. This year there's no time.

cattyfan:

Since Jessica had to withdraw, the producers put Comfort back in the lineup.

Do they really think Comfort will be able to keep up with the awesome and mighty gift to dance and to this earth, Will? Poor Comfort. If she thought the criticism was harsh with her last two partners, she hasn't begun to feel pain and scorn yet.

And why hasn't Wade Robson been on the judges' panel yet?

kizarny:

I think Mia's comment was quite possibly the meanest thing that I've heard anyone say out loud. The fact that she said it to Will rather than during Jessica's "critique" was just an extra slap in the face.

Rock Star:

I hate to say, when Nigel said "I wish someone else had danced it" to Comfort and Thayne, that is exactly the same thought I had during that routine...

Also, is Courtney stupid or something? Gev is from KAZAKHSTAN, which is NOT RUSSIA. She's been his partner for over a month now, shouldn't she know where he comes from? I mean, I know where he comes from and I've never met him... Would Courtney like it if someone called her British because she happens to speak English? WTF?

I thought Mia's treatment of Jessica was totally uncalled for as well. I really want to know what she did to make the judges hate her so. I would also like to see her win.

And I also wanted to beat the shit out of Nigel for ignoring Twitchington's last 16 bars just because he wants to bone her.

mmtv:

every week you, my dear columnist, consistently hit every nail on the head from this show. I actually watched last week going, "I can't wait to read the column after this... there's so much to make fun of!" Nigel's poo face, Mia's hat... thank you.

Speaking of the dog, MIA SHOULD BE STRICKEN FROM JUDGESHIP. She adds nothing, her routines make no sense anyway, why give her a chair from which to spew her venom? She's a vindictive, snobby, L.A. bitch. Fine if judges/dancers love her choreography, let her do that but for God's sake keep her "hot mess" off the stage. Jessica doesn't deserve it. And oh how God works in mysterious ways... sparing her from any further crucifixion more like!! And FUCK YOU to the judges now for ripping her every week... she had broken ribs people!!! I hope she heals in more ways than one.

You're right on with the double standards thing and I am very disappointed in the judges, but it is a FOX reality show and they are just doing "America's favorite dancer" not something more formal or technical so it all boils down to entertainment, and the talent is so insane on this show that I am entertained every week. Even if Mary's cries sound like one of the flying Nazgul from Lord of the Rings!

ElliotJ:

Haha, thanks for the shout out.

God, why is Mia such a bitch? I'd like to see her and Janice Dickinson duke it out or something. Like, Collision of the Megabitches.

I'm on Team Jessica after this episode. She's really not as horrible as she's made out to be.

P.S. Gev should be renamed Leery...the town peeper.

Lulu5087:

Looved the recap!!

But for all of you who said Courtney and Gev are overrated obviously you arent dancers because they are actually really good dancers! They have nailed everything thrown at them and have great presence and performance. Not to mention Gev is a b boy and is able to do all the other dance styles. And actually Kazakhstan used to be part of Russia and the Soviet Union so yes Gev technically is Russian and most people there speak Russian

And yes Mia and all the judges are wayy harsh on Jessica. She is a good dancer and does not deserve to be treated as she has.

Kherinton is so overrated she needs to leave!

KrispyDixie:

Finally!!! The recap is here!! ever since Mia said what she said, I've been wondering what you were gonna say about it!

When she said that, I was like "na aaah, no you di'in't!!" Can you say bitchy? Where does she get off saying stuff like that?

I'm glad Jessica left.. a) because I honestly think she's not as good a dance as the other girls, b) she doesn't have to put up with that shit from the judges.

I thought they were gonna vote her off the next night and was surprised when they kicked Comfort to the curb..

Ok, enough about them.

Mark and Chelsi are still my faves, followed by Joshua and Katee (What up, Bollywood!!)

I thought Twitchington's Krump routine was awesome! although, I couldn't have watched it happily with just Twitch. When he jumped on stage and pounded over to the edge, it was awesome! You could actually hear the stomping! I thought it was really good. Kton held her own, but Twitch just wiped the floor with her...

Awesome recap! don't take so long next time! some of us depend on these recaps to get us through our workday! :P

Rock Star:

Yeah, Kazakhstan USED to be a part of Soviet Union, which fell almost 20 years ago, so no, he is not techincally Russian. He is techincally Kazakhstani. WTF? People in the Philippines speak English. They're not English.

I also meant to say that during the contemporary number, although I thought it would've been much better danced by another couple, I thought Thayne was amazing, and Comfort made me cringe.

Lulu5087:

Um Rock Star sorry but I think his partner would know not you and seriously not that big of a deal wow.

Lulu5087:

Seriously not that big of a deal and if you read Gev's bio he was BORN in Kazakhstan but he's Armenian/RUSSIAN.

Lulu5087:

Oops did not mean to post twice the first one seemed rude.

fire@will:

Quit wasting time on your three paying jobs and get these recaps out quicker, please! (But, um, give us the same incredible high quality entertainment.)

Having gotten into the habit of FF'g certain of the judges, this was the first I knew of the most recent rude comments to Jessica. I totally agree with a ban on Mia ever being a judge (but usually love her choreography).

Will take awhile to adjust to some of the partner switches. It's sort of like coming back from vacation and finding that all of my married friends have divorced and remarried. (Hmm. This could really happen in Hollywood.)

georgiababe:

Okay, I'm a little late on commenting, but where is the recap for the Top 14 results show? Am I missing something?

Don't mean to sound bitchy or anything (I mean, results shows aren't exactly thrilling) but I am just wondering.

bBitz:

Hey Gasmii!

Just so you all don't put a "hit" out on me - I was away for the past 4 days in NY and just got back - I'll whack out the recap tomorrow (Monday) and have it to you all by the end of the day.

Thanks for your patience!

bBitz

chibby:
