By Jonathan Tully   |  So You Think You Can Dance, Spiffy  |  July 02, 2010

Update: Corrected to show none of the men have been cut from the cast.

It could’ve been potentially disastrous.

On So You Think You Can Dance, the final group started with six men and five women. After a few weeks of cutdowns, more women saw the door than men, leaving six men and three girls. Now, while it was still possible for each guy to pair off with a female counterpart, the powers that be decided the time had come for two guys to be paired up.

And so classically trained ballet dancer Alex Wong — of the Miami City Ballet — was paired with hip-hop master Stephen “Twitch” Boss.

But what could’ve been an out-and-out train wreck turned into one of the show’s top routines of this season and possibly any other.

Take a look at Alex — who also talks glowingly of his boss, Edward Villella — showing that because he’s pretty much up for any style, he has to be considered the clear favorite to take this season’s crown:

    “After a few weeks of cutdowns, more women saw the door than men, leaving five men and three girls.”
    Not so: none of the six men has been eliminated.

  2. Amanda says:

    easily the best routine i have seen hands down! (and i have watched since season 3) such a great job, so entertaining and so well danced!!

  3. Tony says:

    Yeah, sorry to point out the clear error but there are still 6 men on the show. Though several have been voted into the bottom 3 multiple times, none have left the show.

    Also have to point out, they weren’t short on girl all stars. Comfort could have been paired with Alex. She didn’t perform this week, because Twitch was drawn, but they had enough girl all stars to even it out.

    Keep droppin those beats Ronald! All of us OU fans think you da bomb-diggity. Hold it down baby!
