Step it up and dance – Bravo new dance reality series

So last night I watched the new Bravo show “Step it up and Dance”. The show just started a week back which brings together 12 dances from around the world and puts them into a dance off. Here is the promo for “Step it Up and Dance” from Bravo TV.

At first, I really did think the show would suck, from the previews it looked a bit silly. Male ballet dancers doing hip-hop? But after watching for about 15 minutes, I gotta say, I really got into it. It did not take long for all the reality TV drama to get started. Before the competition even begins, one of the women tears a muscle and goes home. Now there are only 11 contestants before they even begin eliminations.

Unlike any other reality show I watch, this one did elimination a bit differently. They had a short freestyle dance off and Jamie King split the dancers into 2 groups, the stronger freestyle dancers and the weaker ones. The dancers in the “strong” group were now dancing for the win, while the weak group dancers were  dancing to stay alive and not get eliminated. So basically, no one in the “weak” group could win and no dancer in the “strong” group could be eliminated. So it really sucked when Cody, who was in the “weak” dance group did so well and was told had he been in the “strong” group, he most likely would have won. Remember… they picked the groups from a short little freestyle dance off to begin with.

The winner was Janelle, who did a good job, but I do not think it was great. Her facial expressions during her solo dance routine looked horrible to me. She looked angry and ugly. Being passionate is one thing, but this was way over the top. I wish I had a video, as soon as I do, I will post it.

Another show fave is James and poor Adrianna got sent home. She too got the short end of the deal by being in the “weak” dance group since one of the girls in the “strong” group, Jessica, really screwed up badly and even left the stage DURING the dance sequence. Yep, everyone is dancing, Jessica gets lost and runs away. Jessica would have been eliminated had she not been in the top group.

Heather does the dance

Will Heather now get her own show? any bets on this one. For anyone who does not know, Heather is the awsome stripper from Rock of Love 1 with Brett Michaels who lost, but got so popular that they seem to keep bringing her back!

We see this trend in reality TV where the losing contestants get their own “Love” shows… hey NY did it in Flavor Flaves show and now she has 2 seasons going.

anyway, Heather is a character, a much better one than sorry, aging, pig (show me boobies), is that a wig, Brett Michaels. Yep… we shall wait till next season to see. Hopefully Brett will be out and Heather will be in in the “Rock of Love” VH1 reality house.

Here is the Miss Rock of Love Heather with I hope you brought an extra liver bitches!

Heather, you go with your bad self…girl!
