January 5
To any country participating
on "Superstars of Dance," let's be fair, your country may be in danger
and South Africa is one of them. But it's the quarters and only one has
to go, so go we shall, shall we?
Let's continue the quarterfinals with Argentina and Muchas Gauchos will
kick things off. One has a cape flying like Drew Lachey did when he won
a DWTS 2 title. Even 1 in 2 yo-yos.....don't hurl yourself, another one
has it and 1 more has it. To the judges....

CHI-7
A bad start to the night with a 48, but good news, it's 171 points and
the lead. For India, it's Mythil Parash, and she does a solo dance. To
me, she looks a little weird, but hey it's television, it can happen.

That 56 in solo will take the lead......by 8 points. Australia has Henry
& Jiselle doing quirky ballroom in Latin. Here's the best
highlight.....Henry's on the chair, but Jiselle's takes her turn and
both fight over it. Let's not fight over the scoreboard, shall we
people?

For South Africa's 2nd solo, a 58 gets them 229 and a 4-point lead
differential. Miriam Laraci from last night's show does to solo for her
country known as Argentina. She has a blanky, and puts it down for a
sensual dance. Does that help her country? Only the numbers will
tell....

With a 53 and a 221 in the top 5, we say adios to India & China in the

That 65 will give them 235 and 2nd place, but China, South Africa &
Ireland...pack your bags, you got to go. But a deadlock with Argentina,
Australia and USA means it's time to vote. Here's the judges
scorecard....
4-USA
1-Australia
0-Argentina
That means any country that begins with the letter A, here's an R word
for you: Rejected! Last up, the Groovaloos from the USA. A flip over a
man in a gurney means the man in that gurney revived him. Even with
break dancing, all of them dance in unison. And the last check of the
scoreboard goes like this....

CHI-10
The USA takes the lead in group with a 67 and a 236 for 2nd overall, but
Russia & Argentina, thanks for playing, now GET OUT!
So...it's over. Let the janitors clean up where they are. The top 3 are:
Australia, USA & Ireland. Tune in next Monday.... not Sunday.....next
Monday for more dancing than a high school prom, but ask yourself which
country is...... the Superstar of Dance? |
