The First
Offensive
January
14
All 14 dancers have been
recruited, suited up and ready for battle. They're now ready to fire
their first shots thanks to Bruno & Carrie Ann. One's reputation is at
stake. The war now continues.
All 14 can't be together at the same time and they have to. That's why
"Shake your Groove Thing" by Peaches & Herb kicks things off with a
bang. 12 must go and 1 must go home. According to the Chain Reaction
rulebook of genders, the guys go first. All of them will do "Hold On,
I'm Coming." And they're coming with flips and vocally challenged
stylings. Now it's time to break up like a plate. Maxx, Qis, Bradley,
and Chris will do "Larger Than Life" by the Backstreet Boys. They look
like a boy band from the past decade, don't it? But Carrie Ann said Qi
messed it up, and Bruno said Maxx & Bradley giving ways to improve.
Zack, Tony & Phillip are up doing "Hard to Handle" by the Black Crowes.
Zack has the brother with Down Syndrome, and Tony came to LA with
nothing but the shirt on his back. That's love. Performance-wise, Carrie
Ann said the voices are the strongest, which means the ladies have a
chance to improve in the next segment, but first, we pick the guys.
The envelopes open.....and Carrie Ann gets the first selection which
is.....Bradley......and Bruno is next with......Zack, the leading man
and the final pick goes to...............Tony, thanks to Bruno, which
means Max, Phillip and Qis must survive to stay alive later on.
Now the girls get their turn. Why did they not go first? Oh, well. The
sensational 7....yes, the sensational 7 will do "Bad Girls" by Donna
Summer. And they were Bad To The Bone. When they came out of their own
silhouettes, they did what they could. Bruno called Lacey & Mariel the 2
biggest road runners, but Carrie Ann wants more work like Wile E. Coyote
and Elizabeth is one of them.
Kelsey, Corina, Allysa and Charity will do "The Beat Goes on" by The
whis, er, Sonny & Cher. It was in a 60's kind of way. Charity's dad is a
CCR artist and Allysa got in as an accident. Carrie Ann said it was a
lot of flat notes, but Allysa gave it fizz and to Bruno, it was ditto
for Kelsey. The next 3 are up. Mariel, whose mom was to cancer, Lacey
and Elizabeth, who is a fmaily adopter will do "Lady Marmalade" by
Labelle, and they look good in their Supremes get-up. Bruno says now
they're in business. But let's get down to some serious business. By the
envelopes....Bruno goes first this time and he gets....Lacey. Carrie Ann
will be up and she gets........Mariel. Bruno's last pick.......Kelsey.
And Carrie Ann's.........Elizbaeth. With 3 guys & 3 girls left, this
isn't the time for "Match Game." This is "Dance War," and elimination is
bound for it.
The 3 girls will go first and they'll do "Survivor" by Destiny's child.
These girls have the need to survive. The guys will do the same by doing
"End of the Road" by Boyz II Men. For 1, it won't be and let's get to
it. By the power of the envelopes......Bruno goes 1st. He
gets.....................Phillip & Karina. Carrie Ann will go last and
she gets................Keith & Allysa. That means Maxx & Karina are
long gone. I was rooting for Maxx to be on either team, but there it is
people. Your Lakers vs. Knicks, Your Cowboys vs. Redskins, your
Thrashers vs. Ducks, your Braves vs. Phillies, your Tar Heels vs. Blue
Devils, and next week, it's on like a lightbulb! When the war ends, the
real game begins. |
