Top 8 Spoilers
I have a crazy week this week, finals for school and I’m actually having hip surgery on Thursday so I’ll just post the spoilers and not my thoughts. The surgery does give me ample time to catch up on old SYTYCD episodes though, haha, though being on crutches for 8 weeks probably won’t be too much fun. I’ll have to wait until I get home to catch the show online, should be a good one! Have a great week everyone!
Thanks to everyone over at IdolForums for the spoilers this week.
*spoilers after the jump*
Jakob/Mollee – Broadway (Joey Dowling), Viennese Waltz (Jason Gilkison)
Legacy/Ellenore – Contemporary (Travis Wall), Hip Hop (NappyTabs)

check out Twitter if you want more updates, Travis, Jakob, Mollee, Legacy, Ellenore, Ashleigh, Kathryn and NappyTabs all have Twitters.
Holy moley I have the feeling that I’m going to love Ellenore and Legacy this week. Not that I have ever not loved Ellenore, but still.
By the way, is it just me, or does Legacy seem to get a lot of hip hop?
Oh wow. This can’t have been completely by chance! It seems too obvious that everybody’s been paired up with each other and their dances in order to bring out the train wrecks.
Jakob and Mollee? Could be interesting to see what they bring out in each other, for sure. But it seems like it’ll either go really well (“Jakob protected Mollee” will be the consensus, probably) OR they’ll have zero chemistry and Mollee will go home. Broadway and Viennese Waltz? We know Jakob can perform these successfully. But I’m dreading Mollee in that Viennese Waltz…she does best with stuff that’s high energy, not simple and elegant. Let’s see.
I love Elleanore and while I can see that Legacy has built up a significant fan base (and she’s started to after that Sonya routine with Jakob), this is not my favorite partnership for her. However, I think they’ve both done hip hop and contemporary successfully, so they’ll probably be fine. Unless they have no chemistry together.
Arrggggh! The Ryan and Kathryn partnership leaves me afraid. I think they’re both more than capable of selling disco and cha cha extremely well (the training and the performance aspect), but again, I worry they won’t have any chemistry together. And I would’ve loved for them to have another dance that’s more of a fan favorite. The choreographers aren’t my favorite, either, so I worry… I love Kathryn and I want to see her in the final 4 (not saying 6, just not saying it…)
I think that Russell and Ashleigh will be a successful partnership. Mostly, because Ashleigh has proved that she’s capable of partnering and learning from her partners and Russell is so charismatic and has brought out great things in his partners before. Plus, they have dynamo routines. Ashleigh did well in hip hop before (as did Russell) and Russell will really sell that Bollywood and Ashleigh will probably step up and sell it, too.
What scares me is this line up feels like it could put my favorite girls in danger – Kathryn and Ellenore. I think my favorite boys – Jakob and Russell – are gonna do fine, no matter what.
What do y’all think?
And yes, tine, Legacy gets a lot of hip hop. And he doesn’t even do it that well, except for his moves. We’ll see how this week goes. I’ll be crossing my fingers now.
I hope your surgery goes well. Im a bit concerned about Ryan and Kathryn too but the thought of how many lifts Doriana could do in that disco, this also be the first time that we will see Ryan in his genre of latin ballroom. I agree with not wanting to see Mollee do a waltz. Legacy might get hip hop alot but too bad he didnt get Mr Sparks. lol though knowing Russell has a Shane routine makes me excited to see what Shane can do with a krumper. Should be a good show. At least Travis feels that way, I know he was very excited about who he had to work with.
I agree with you, Emilie. I think Ryan/Kathryn might have drawn the srot end of the choreography stick in regards to what the fans like. But but dances should play to Ryan’s strenghts, so we’ll see how they go.
Nothing up their screams train wreck to me except perhaps the Molle waltz. I wish Jakob had been paried with Kathryn. 🙁
I like these dances , I heard the ellenore had an injury I hope it is not too bad she is one of my favs Also why are all the ballroom dancers getting cha cha cha. First Karen, then Ashleigh and now Ryan.
I hope jakob and mollee , broadway and waltz is hard to sell .
I agree with one of the posts this line up doesn’t feel like chance. I think that’s what the problem has been for season 5 and 6 some of the magic has been lost because they don’t pick things randomly. The producers are ruining the show by trying to “fix” it for their favs. And they kill the magic from the first 4 seasons.
I don’t see why people think they aren’t random? They are. Random chance dictates that things like this are bound to happen. There aren’t that many dance styles and partners to choose from, after all.
I used to think that the producers were rigging it, but I feel like it really is random. But then again, when contestants “draw from the hat” there might only be just one card in there.
I’m so happy there’s another bollywood routine. I had a feeling they would and Russell would have been my first choice. I was actually hoping Kathryn and Russell would get the routine, but I’m not upset that Ashleigh has it. She seems like a strong dancer as well.
Despite the limited possibilities, these pairings weren’t anything I predicted…
Will they perform their solo this week, too? I hope so 🙂 Anyway I’m very expecting Legacy & Ellenore tomorrow 🙂
