I was surprised to see Kiki make the final 4 but he deserves to be there! They all do, just a great group of dancers this season. My pic for the win is Lex
he has a way of leaping through the air and landing on his feet so softly! I think he is the best dancer left on the show.

'So
You Think You Can Dance' Live Blog: The Top 6 Dance and
Two are Eliminated

So You Think You Can
Dance season 14 is winding down, and
one third of the remaining contestants will be sent home.
The four remaining
dancers will leap in to the finale. I think that we can all
agree that season 14
of So
You Think You Can Dance has featured epic
talent.
Last time, Mark
Villaver of Team Comfort, was sent home. I am going to miss
this
break-dancer's huge
personality.
Grab your
tissues, dance fans. This is
the So
You Think You Can Dance live
blog!
We kick off with a strange group routine,
choreographed by Christopher Scott, featuring the
competitors and the All-Stars.
It also features large white cubes that the dancers push and
even dance on. Cat
also shares the good news that Mandy
Moore and Travis
Wall each won a well-deserved Emmy. Congratulations to
them.
Now welcome your
judges -- Vanessa Hudgens, Mary
Murphy , and Nigel
Lythgoe . The contestants will perform three times
tonight--once with their
All-Star, once with another competitor, and once with a solo
performance. I need
a power nap, and I am just recapping!
Lex and
All-Star
Gaby
Samba
choreographed by Sasha Farber
In this
piece, Gaby and Lex will show the world the passion of
their love through dance. Lex fears he is not sexy. I am
feeling this spicy
routine, and so is Vanessa, as she gives the duo a standing
ovation. Mary
praises Lex playing Gaby's "butt bongos," but
she has some issues with Lex's
posture in frame. The mighty Mary surprises everyone with a
scream of delight.
Nigel liked the energy of the performance, but suggests that
Lex take ballroom
lessons.
Solo:
Kaylee
The
contestants are sharing about their mentors. Kaylee's
brother,
who is a boxer, taught her boxing. Kaylee credits that
unusual skill with
helping with her strength and control. Her solo is an
interesting mix of slow
and fast movements.
How to
Vote
You can
super vote at FOX.com/Dance or on the FOX Now App. Voting
begins at the end of the show and is open until 9 am Pacific
time tomorrow. Get
voting!
Koine and All-Star
Marko
Contemporary choreographed by
Elizabeth Petrin and Mandy
Korpinen
Marko is
portraying a man who comes across some clothing left in
his closet by a former lover. This pair is dancing within
the structure of a
closet, and using a large hanger as part of the routine.
What could go wrong?
It is absolutely mesmerizing. Mary declares that it is one
of her favorite So
You Think You Can Dance routines of the season.
Vanessa comments on Koine's
strength and the size of her
forearms.
Solo:
Taylor
Taylor's mentor is Michelle
Wegner, who owns one of the studios
where Taylor dances. Her solo is dramatic and plays to her
strengths.
Kiki and
All-Star
Jenna
Jazz
choreographed by Ray
Leeper
Jenna
is hoping
to bring out "Daddy Kiki's" sexy side, and I
have no problem with that. There is
no story for this piece, and it starts slow, then gets very
fast. Their
connection and chemistry are great. Mary praises Kiki and
puts this couple on
the hot tamale train. Nigel also loves the routine, but
wonders if Ray Leeper
added the kiss at the end, or if Jenna and Kiki did some
improvisation.
Solo:
Logan
Logan's inspiration is his
sister,
Nolanie. He watched her dance class rehearsals and decided
to try it, and this
shared love brought them closer together. Logan's solo
shows off both his
physical strength and wonderful
technique.
Kaylee and
All-Star
Cyrus
Hip-Hop
choregraphed by Phillip
Chbeeb
This piece
is about how people lust after objects such as money
and fame, and it incorporates a large device that looks like
a four-sided metal
ladder. This pair shines in the routine. Nigel loves the
piece, and raves about
the triple lift. Vanessa comments about Kaylee and
Cyrus'
groove.
Solo:
Koine
Koine's mentor is her brother,
who was a figure skater. Since her
family could not afford to pay for both activities, her
brother gave up skating
so that she could pursue dance. Koine's solo brims with
emotion and graceful
technique.
Group
Routine: The
All-Stars
This
number, choreographed by Andrew Winghart, features
interesting cape work by all the
dancers.
Taylor and
All-Star
Robert
Hip-Hop
choreographed by Keone and
Mari
This piece
is about two creatures who are clashing because of
their different appearance. This performance is blowing my
mind with how clean
it is and how precise the movements are. They garner a
standing ovation from all
three judges. Nigel tells the duo that "they nailed
it." Mary loves everything
about the routine.
Solo:
Lex
Lex's
mentor is Zak Ryan Schlegel, who has been training with Lex
since Lex was nine years old. Lex's solo starts out slow
and then bursts in to
hyper-drive. I love it!
Logan and
All-Star
Allison
Contemporary choreographed by Dee
Caspary
In this
routine, Logan and Allison are
portraying a couple who have a dark and unhealthy
relationship. The duo utilizes
a rose and its petals to symbolize their relationship. I
enjoyed this sexy
routine, as did the judges, who took to their feet. Vanessa
gets the giggles as
she repeatedly calls the dance "hot." Mary marvels
at the couple's partner work.
Nigel wants Logan to show more
emotion.
Solo:
KiKi
Kiki
reveals that his mentor is his older
brother, Marcus, who decided to step away from ballroom
dancing so that Kiki
could continue his dancing dreams. Kiki's solo is sexy
and filled with charisma.
KikI snags a standing ovation from Mary, but it could be
because he lost his
shirt.
Koine
and
Lex
Disco
choreographed by Doriana
Sanchez
This
routine is fresh, fun, and filled with lifts and tricks.
Koine really shines in this performance. At the end of the
performance it looks
like Lex is in pain, but he says that he is okay. Nigel
calls Koine "the best
performer this season" for him. Vanessa states that the
routine was
"mind-blowing."
Results:
Koine is
in danger
Lex is in
the finale
Taylor and
Logan
Jazz
choreographed by Mark
Kanemura
Logan and
Taylor are portraying a long-term couple that breaks up,
but let each other go in a loving and positive way. This
piece is filled with
quirky movements, but I didn't feel much emotion. Nigel
praises the duo for
following his previous suggestions. Mary raves about how
free the performance
was.
Results:
Taylor is
in the finale
Logan is
in danger
Kaylee and
Kiki
Bollywood
choreographed by Nakul Dev
Mahajan
This piece
is about a rickshaw driver who cheers up a sad girl by
dancing with her. I think that Kaylee and Kiki killed this
routine. Vanessa
praises how well they did outside of their comfort zone.
Nigel loves their
commitment to the routine.
Results:
Kiki is in
the finale
Kaylee is
in danger
The
Bottom
