Everyone knows that Channing was my favorite on SYTYCD (partially due to my love of Blondes I think). So, of course, I totally LOVED these videos of Channing doing Hip Hop (Thanks to SYTYCDism).
This one is just beautiful of Channing:
Here is one of her and Ivan Kourmaev from SYTYCD season 2.
It’s amazing that Channing was kind of “branded” a contemporary dancer when she does Hip Hop this well. I wonder what kind of dancer Channing would consider herself. Yep, I just became even more of a Channing fan! We’re going to have to work harder next season to find these little nuggets of information before the top 20.

Hmmm. That IS interesting. I can’t remember – did we ever get to see her do hip hop on the show? I don’t think we did. She might’ve been a victim of the show’s “production,” unfortunately. But, I do think it would’ve taken her longer to be as versatile as some of the other dancers who made it farther, unfortunately. Not that she couldn’t have done it, certainly. I’d love to see more of her.
One thing I hate is that they classify the dancers. I think most dancers have a favorite style that they feel more comfortable with. Plus it make it look like that they can only do that one style. In my opinion I just call them dancers.
Amanda,
Good point. Although, maybe they should list all of the styles that they’ve had training in. Basically full disclosure of a dancer’s experience.
I’ve noticed on SYTYCD Canada, they’re a lot more liberal with their labels of the dancers. Like, Natalli was considered a latin ballroom AND hip hop dancer. And i’m pretty sure there was another contestant like that, if not on Canada, another country’s SYTYCD.
