It's Called An Indoor Voice, Mary

"Missin You" by Trey Songz is the song. The dancers sit on opposite sides of the stage. Jason gets up, does some herky-jerky popping while Caitlin strolls around all forlorn, and then they bump into each other and start to get their groove on. Caitlin slides along Jason's back. She puts her hands on his hips and slides her hands down his pants, which manage to stay on. Jason freezes while Caitlin gets her hip-hop on, which didn't do a whole lot for me, with its Mick Jagger rooster strut, crouched-leg spread and arm-waving. At least the effort's there. Jason gets back in action as the two of them get closer and push away. Caitlin bends over backwards and does a ... what is that called? Backwards somersault? It looks cool. The two of them wind up in each other's arms.

Lil' C notes that the audience loved them, but he did not. He says the choreographer's fantasy has to become the dancers' reality, but he felt it became a "nightmare" for them up on stage. He says the moves were sharp and clean, but because of that it came off corny. Mary says it came off like Michael Jackson and Britney Spears dancing together. Both great dancers, but different dancers, and she points out the less-than-synchronized body rolls they did. Awesome. Actually useful critique from Mary, with corresponding footage! Yay!

Nigel blows a lot of hooey about how they expect this hard edge from hip-hop (which you'd never know based on all the praise heaped on Taboleon's routines). He says Shane changed up his style to fit the dancers, neither of whom are especially hard-hitting hip-hoppers, and he thought they looked good up there.

Janette and Brandon! Brandon says when Janette was little she had the worst teeth ever! Judging from the photos, "worst teeth ever!" means "big front teeth!" I mean, it's not like she was Shane MacGowan, for god's sake. Janette tells us that despite Brandon's body, he has never worked out a day in his life. I think it's cute that she believed him when he told her that. Well, I suppose when you're lifting partners over the head all the time, you don't need a gym.
