So You Think You Can Dance, Ep. 10.3

Who To Watch For In Vegas:

Auditions in L.A.

Alex Kessinger
I love how she interpreted the music. Great song choice to show off her spunky personality. She had a lot of unique moves and it wasn't just your typical contemporary routine.

Sebastian Serra
High energy , but I didn't see a lot of connection to what he was doing to the music, and I didn't see a whole lot of actual choreography or moves. But, I guess it doesn't matter what I think, they sent him straight to Vegas.

Maria Lebedeva and Misha Smagen 
Latin ballroom dancers. Both were really good, hot and spicy. The judges loved them both and sent them both straight to Vegas.

Emilio "Millie" Dosal
He went to classes given by Phillip Chbeeb, and Phillip asked him to be part of his crew. They are now actually roommates as well. Phillip saw something in him, and I can see why...he's very talented. He even faked a broken wrist! He hit every beat, it was really cool! He advanced to choreography, and eventually got the "yes" to Vegas.

Makenzie Dustman
Pretty boring because of the music, but she showed a lot of flexibility.

Auditions in Texas

Hayley Erbert
She was really good and really fun to watch. She used the emotion of the song very well.

Donovan Gibbs
Typical b-boy, not really any new, interesting moves. His last move was a fall straight backwards, with one leg up...that looked really hard to do! The coolest thing happened after his audition...they invited his dad down to battle him on stage. His dad looks the same age as him! And his dad was awesome! Wow.

Dannon O'Brien
He was kind theatrical, but he was also very talented.

Shane Garcia
The Lazaro of SYTYCD. He uses dance to mask his stuttering. He is so talented! He does hip-hop and some bone-breaking as well as animation. His movements are so fluid, and he's so intense! I can't take my eyes off him! Not a dry eye in the house!

Daniela Bustillos
Very beautiful dancer with a scary backstory. Her mother moved her family to the US from Venezuela after they were held captive at gunpoint in their home for 2 days without food and water.

Nick Muckelroy
He is so strong and powerful! Ridiculous! And he did a jump into a split! Whoa!

Hampton "The Exorcist" Williams 
He awed the crowd last season, but didn't make the finals. His daughter would be a perfect match for the other 4-year-old cutie that "auditioned" earlier!

Honorable Mention:

Nicholas "Slick" Stewart
He's a bone-breaker. Quite possibly the sickest one I've ever seen! His arms dislocate and go 360! Whoa! Seriously...they've had a ton of guys on the show that do this, but I've never seen someone turn their shoulder more than 360 and then their arm and then their hand and then fall on their arms. OUCH! That was uncomfortable to watch!

J Freeze
Cutest 4-year-old "auditioning" for So You Think You Can Dance:
Nigel: Did you know you have to be 18 before you can do anything on the show?
Kid: Yes
Nigel: How old are you?
Kid: 18
Nigel: Are you in high school or college?
Kid: Uh, high school.
Nigel: What are you studying in high school?
Kid: Everything!
Nigel: Are you married?
Kid: NO!!!!!!
