Have you seen "So You Think You Can Dance Canada"?

If you didn't know, Canada has jumped on the "So You Think You Can Dance" band wagon, now in it's 2nd installment - I have to say it is sooo much better then it's American counterpart.

Yeah you have the salsa, the contemporary and hip hop numbers - that's a given. But one thing the US doesn't have that we do is the wide range of dance professionals and eclectic styles.

Last night for the FIRST time ever they had Dance Hall. DANCE HALL bitches! Where on national television have you ever seen a multi-million dollar broadcasting company showcase a dance style only known in the deep boroughs of a small island known as Jamaica... ok fine and Eglinton West? N-E-V-E-R!


Kaitlyn & Izaak definitely put on their best dressed and ripped up the choreography. Ok not so much Izaak but Kaitlyn threw it down. And as hard as it might have been for her to adapt to a dance-style that she probably had no experience with she made it hers and showed her talent ranges far beyond just contemporary. Luther Brown was a bit harsh and that may very well be because that's "him" per se - but credit is definitely due.

Go head Kaitlyn with your wig and your black, shiny tights!

P.S. I am searching for the clip on YouTube and once I find it you damn well know I will post it.

If you missed it, it re-airs on MuchMusic Saturdays @ 2:00pm.
