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.

I mean, we are all for controversy these days... After all isn't that what makes our world go 'round?
This post Definitely falls in the "WTF?" category. Like most people, this was a total shock.
You know given the magnitude of the events for the inauguration I would expect that the wait times at the border would be long and tedious. I crossed the border without incident and I can thankfully say that my encounter with the US Border Patrol lasted all but 2 minutes. Unfortunately Tyrone Edwards, a good friend of mine and his bus group could not say the same.
Plagued with racial profiling and a bad case of power control, the customs officers put these young people through hell and back. I didn't hear the whole story as of yet, but The Star did write an article about it. Read it now.
So I am on Twitter and @AroundHarlem sends out a link to a new web browser called Blackbird. Based on the original Firefox but designed specifically for Black or (African-American - as they call it) content. And usually I am all for multiculturalism, hell I am from Toronto - one of the most diverse cities, culturally wise, in North America.
I am not a big fan of celebrity gossip - and by no means is this post endorsing that, but I just thought I would put this out there because there really isn't an excuse for looking that ratty. You're a ka-gillion-aire for goodness sakes, do something with your hair man!
