Round of 12 (or "Paging Ross Shafer...")
July 8


The top 12 are here. It's more routines and nothing else. When 2 are cut, we're halfway home from being crowned champion. Let's begin.

Joining the creative 2 is Tyce Diorio and we're ready to start. Melissa & Ade get going with a disco routine to "Move On Up" by Destination. They do incredible moves, but a little balance was lost before Melissa recovers.

What Nigel said: I call them a strong couple.
What I said: They're off to a rocking start.

Next up, Kayla & Kupono doing a contemporary routine to "Gravity" by Sara Bareilles. In it, they potray the story of getting over an addiction...such as......Classic Pro Wrestling....or.....Buzztime.

What Tyce said: It was the whole package.
What I said: I think it was very emotional.

And it'll be Caitlyn & Jason's turn to do a Tony & Meredith foxtrot to "Minnie the Moocher" and it's not by Cab Calloway, it's by Big Bad Voodoo Daddy. It had great lifts throughout the number.

What Mary said: The dance was tremendous.
What I said: The lifts were fantastic.

Just a reminder, the show will go on a 40-city tour. Go to fox.com/dance for the info. Now it's Jeanine & Phillip's turn doing a Russian Folk Dance. When the dance sped up, the footwork nailed it.

What Nigel said: I'm not crazy about the style.
What I said: I think the speed of teh dance was crazy.

Going ahead is Randi & Evan doing a TabNap hip-hop routine to "Halo" by Beyonce. They did incredibly well for this routine.

What Tyce said: I like the great storytelling.
What I said: I think they did pretty nice.

To wrap up the round, Janette & Brandon doing an Argentine Tango. They took it to Argentina with their incredible lifts.

What Mary said: They were flawless!
What I said: Give them a flawless victory!

Think that's over? We don't think so. A new round begins....now!

SECOND HALF

Melissa & Ade go waltz to "Natural Woman" by Mary J. Blige. It turned out to be smooth for this routine.

What Mary said: The lifts look effortless.
What I said: There were no bumps there.

Kalya & Kupono do Broadway to "The Dance At The Gym" from "West Side Story." It was more like watching the cheerleaders dance at a halftime show. It had flair & energy.

What Tyce said: They needed to make us more a part of their world.
What I said: They needed a little more storyline into the routine.

Next up, Caitlyn & Jason doing Lyrical Jazz to "Show Me Heaven" by Marilyn McKee. It had expressive lifts in the number.

What Tyce said: They need to take it further.
What I said: I think they went far enough for it.

Going ahead is Jeanine & Phillip doing a jive to "Stuff Like That There" by Bette Midler. It had kicks and lifts with a bit of Broadway to it.

What Mary said: Phillip did so well.
What I said: That Broadway blend did justice for those 2.

Here's Randi & Evan doing a samba done by alums Pascha & Anya. They did what the 2 did for the crowd watching.

What Mary said: It had a slow sizzle.
What I said: I think the alums learned this pretty well.

And to end the show, Janette & Brandon doing a Wade Robson jazz routine to to "Ruby Blue" by Roison Murphy. It starts by going down the stairs to the dance floor and ends with a empty jewel case. Maybe the grand prize is somewhere....

What Tyce said: They have that it factor,
What I said: This was insane!

Well, there you have it. The results show is tomorrow, and more importantly for next week, it'll be the top 10. I'll see you later.
