*spoilers: Top Ten for SYTYCD S7*
hey guys! I’m taking a break from studying for finals so I thought I’d post! big props to our friends over at SYTYCDism, they’ve uncovered the top 10 for season 7!
*spoilers after the jump*
there’s a catch, according to their post, it’s actually going to be a top 11, with 6 boys and 5 girls. here they are, in no particular order:
Girls
1. Christina Santana (salsa)
2. Melinda Sullivan (tap)
3. Alexie Agdeppa (jazz)
4. Lauren Froderman (contemporary)
5. Ashley Galvan (lyrical)
Guys
1. Jose “Full Deck” Ruiz (breaking)
2. Billy Bell (contemporary)
3. Alex Wong (ballet)
4. Kent Boyd (contemporary)
5. Robert Roldan (contemporary)
6. Adé Chiké Torbert (contemporary)
we’ll obviously have a better sense of the judges’ reasons for choosing who they did once the Vegas episodes start (tonight!) but I have some quick thoughts.
-really glad to see both Alex Wong AND Billy Bell. Nigel made a big to-do in a couple of interviews about only having chose one of them. Now we know that’s not the case. They’re both so talented, it will be a treat to see them both.
-as much as I was put off by “Full Deck” the breaker at his audition, now that I know he’s in the top 11, I’m intrigued to see how his Vegas week went. Something must have clicked…the same goes for Lauren Froderman. She had quite an audition last night. I thought her tricks were impressive but there was something very odd about the whole routine. I can’t seem to put my finger on it. Regardless, she beautiful and seems to have a fun personality so I’m really interested to see how she did in Vegas.
-we got to meet Robert Roldan tonight, he was beautiful. He might have had the longest arms I’ve ever seen, and they were so strong, haha. Looking forward to seeing him in Vegas. He’s one of Channing Cooke (S6) roommates, seems like a cool guy.
-One guy whose audition stood out to me from last night was Adrian Lee. I LOVED him! Not to repeat everything that the judges said last night, but he had incredible power in his jumps and spins and the control was insane. I know they put him straight through to Vegas and I was disappointed to see him not in the top.
-I’m glad to see Kent Boyd in the top. I thought he was adorable last night and he danced with a ton of heart. It was interesting to see him dancing to the Billy Porter song that Mia used in S3 with Lacey and Neil in the routine about her dad, in that sense I understood where the judges were coming from. The movements needed to be a bit softer to go along with the song. But SYTYCD is so much about personality and Kent just seems like a great kid.
-LOVED Christina and Alexie. Wow are they eye catching dancers. I know everyone had been upset that Alexie didn’t make top 20 for season 6, but I definitely think she improved.
-looking at this list of 11, 5 came from the Chicago/LA auditions
-sad to see the Tyrell Rolle didn’t make it (from the Miami auditions) he was beautiful
-correct me if I’m wrong, but is this the first time in any of the seasons that we haven’t had a dancer who does strictly hip hop (guy or girl)? Any theories on why that is?
okay, my study break’s over. Comment away!
Thanks, Margaret! I kinda get the feeling this is a “choreographer’s season,” more than any other. This is the time where, since they have to limit it to 10 (11) dancers, they have to decide who they most want to choreograph. And who can rise to the same level as the professionals, the All-Stars. They need dancers who are already at the “TOP 10” part of their journey, even though we’re just now starting to watch them.
what was the song Jordan from Dallas danced to? something to do with monkeys… I loved the beat.
Hi Sue- It’s Lil Wayne’s “Da Da Da” . You can check out all of tonight’s music, as we get it, here.
[…] Margaret posted some spoilers earlier today and here’s the comment I put, which sums up a lot of my feelings about tonight’s episode: Thanks, Margaret!

I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT BILLY BELL!
Also, I really love that Kent Boyd is going to be in the top 10(11) because he looks a lot like my friend. Now I just keep seeing my friend dancing. Haha. Anywho…I would vote for Billy, Alex, and Kent all the time. Oh man.
i am excited for the top ten 😀
p.s. does anyone know the songs from this episodes the ones where they would play in the back ground for when they got voted off.
the first one was like – it feels like everything keeps spinning around , it keeps spinning around. (something like that)
the second one was like – i don’t wanna say goodbye , something feels it’s gonna change just say goodbye oh
thank youuu !
I saw this show for the first time tonight while a friend watched it. I believe I watched only the NY auditions, and then just a few minutes of Miami. I THINK that about halfway through the NY auditions, a beautiful song that I know was a love theme or score to a movie played. I seem to remember the song playing during a montage of dance, not an actual audition. Maybe a recap? Does anyone know what I’m talking about? Either the movie, artist, or song name? It’s driving me crazy!! 🙂
Don’t know whether I even want to watch it now that I know Kaitlin Conley hasn’t made Top 10…or should I say Top 11 :/ I was so freakin excited when I found out she auditioned and we haven’t seen her at all!!! I’m so dissapointed cuz she’s amazing and has so much talent I don’t know how she couldn’t have made it. And neither did Bridget Krause ERRR!!!! Billy, Alexie, and Alex are the only reasons for keeping me somewhat excited for season 7.
Alex freakin` Wong !!
He`s amazing (:
Hey, does anyone know the name of the song that was played for a montage of dance clips, when they said that they would introduce the top ten after the break? It had the words: “laugh until I start to cry” and “something about you” and it was a girl singing. Any help is much appreciated!
