So You Think You Can Dance Australia - Final 18 Performances

Seizoen: 1 - Aflevering: 8 / 8 - Eerst uitgezonden: 24 februari 2008 - Episode ID: 249567

Jaws dropped and salty tears were shed when the lovable Courtney and Khaly had to bid farewell to the SYTYCD crew last week, and everyone realized that this was real: the pressure was on! It was time to pull out all the stops as the search continued for Australia's favourite dancer… Kate and Hilton: Both dancers were at a disadvantage having only a week with each other as a partner, plus nursing bruised egos as a result of being in the bottom six. They had something to prove – and they proved it. Matt hit the nail on the head when he named the routine as elegant, sexy and slick. However Bonnie and Jason both warned Hilton he'd need to up his game to stay on par with the performance maturity displayed by Kate, and not to let Kate outshine him. Kate named Hilton as the light at the end of the tunnel of the Monday night eviction. Are these dancers your light? If so – vote!! Camilla and Sermsah: With all the pent-up energy of prisoners on the run, Camilla and Sermsah burst onto the stage with a hardcore Hip Hop routine. Matt said the pair were on the floor with 150% energy but he didn't think the genre sat well with either of them. He said Sermsah's energy was too out of control and he was losing the steps. Bonnie said she hoped neither them were disappointed because they did a fantastic job and she could see Camilla creeping up there. Jason commented the pair needs to work on their unison, and to pull back their energy levels in order to produce consistency. If you wanna keep these dancers in the competition, you have to vote!! Kassy and Graeme: This routine saw Kassy and Graeme dancing Lyrical Contemporary, a story which took us into the mind of Graeme as he remembered the best parts of a relationship with Kassy. Set to the Ray Charles version of The Beatles classic 'Yesterday', this nostalgic routine demanded some punishing floorwork from the spunky hotties. Matt commended the performers on the dangerous lifts, which had him on the edge of his seat. Bonnie said if you trust, you will conquer and that this routine was a little bit of magic and lotta heaven: light and lovely. Jason said he felt the routine was a little laboured. Don't agree? Vote to keep these dancers on your screens. Stephanie and Marko. No strangers to pushing the envelope, the feisty Stephanie and Marco were back this week with yet another mixed-genre double dose of eye-catching wackiness. But did the neon-coloured Swing Hip Hop (Swap) routine to 'Are You The One' by Sydney kings of dirty electro, The Presets, win the judges over? Matt felt that Steph seemed like a fish outta water and that she didn't have steps down. He felt Marco's lifts were laboured and the piece was a little wishy washy. Jason said Marco was a solid dancer but he felt Steph got left behind, and was outdanced by her partner. Do you agree with Jason that these dancers will be in bottom three? If not, you must vote now! Laura and Anthony: Are you living in the 70s? Without the use of some kind of time-travelling device, it's highly unlikely. But taking it back to the era of Xanadu, rollerdiscos and Farah Fawcett hair was this gold-draped sexy pair. With five lifts on the cards, could they pull it off? A glowing Laura said she was stoked to get Disco so she could share her fun, bubbly side with the audience while Anthony said he was happy to get Disco so he could smile and have fun. Did the judges share their joy? Matt said the pair were clearly a crowd favourite and it was definitely exciting, what with Anthony's sweet John Travolta-ish moves. Bonnie said she enjoyed it so much, and she could see Laura growing and growing every week. Jason wanted a bit more from Anthony, and Laura needed to work on her core strength. Did these disco divas win your heart? If so, vote them in! Rhiannon and J.D.: This week double trouble tackled the strong, clean, sharp world of industrial Contemporary Jazz, in a routine to 'Breathe' by the Prodigy. The result? Matt said Rhiannon danced the pants off J.D, and that J.D. had been too laidback. Bonnie said the routine was tough for J.D, and while he didn't have the technique, he did the very best he could and supported his partner. She said that whatever Rhiannon did, she'll come out trumps. She could see how Rhiannon made J.D. feel safer. Jason agreed with J.D.'s criticisms of his performance, in that it looked like he was chasing the routine, and that while Rhiannon was cute, hot and funky, she needed to be more open as a performer. Love these guys? Vote to keep them in. Demi and Jack: Put a b-girl in three-inch heels and whadya get? Samba baby, Samba!! This likeable pair sizzled this week in a loved up Latino routine, and Matt voiced what everyone was thinking when he enthused about just how sexy and sensual the South American dance was. Bonnie commented that it was a difficult routine to nail, with all the complex little steps, but they worked together to pull off a saucy, sassy number. Jack needed to work on his accuracy and Demi ripped it. Jason said that not only was he looking at a complete transformation in dancer Demi, but it was the routine of the night for him. Jemma and Rhys: Last week's breathtaking waltzers were back this week performing something with a little more bite: a modern take on the vampire mythology. Their sexy Jazz routine was choreographed by Top 100 contestant Michael Boyd. Matt said Jemma was out of her comfort zone and he could see her thinking throughout the whole routine, but all-in-all, great job. Bonnie commented she felt it wasn't rehearsed enough and she liked the character acting, but it was just a little under. Jason said it was good but not great. Do you agree? Vote if you wanna keep this red-blooded vampy couple in the competition. Vanessa and Henry: Last but not least, a Ballet dancer and a Ballroom performer taking on a genre they'd never heard of before: Animation Hip Hop. Vanessa was super nervous learning the complex, understated choreography, saying she felt like it was like learning a dance from Mars. Matt was impressed with the leaps and bounds the pair had made while Bonnie said she found the dance enchanting, and she was really proud of them both. The judge who had been hard to please all night, Jason, said he was impressed with the versatility that Henry had shown, and quite simply, he loved him in that routine. He felt Henry had stolen the show. He said he thought Vanessa would be crap at it, but she wasn't – she made the popping style look effortless and easy. We're looking for your favourite dancer Australia, so vote now to keep them in the competition!
