Yes that was them. I thought they went a little overboard about her. He was very good.
Sometimes Nigel just says some weird things. The way he looks at some of the contestants....just creepy

Ugh! I have to agree, he's a bit long in the tooth to be oogling 19-20 year olds, but at least they are legal. I wish he would keep those feelings to himself though, he could stand to act a bit more British.

I've actually seen WAY better International Latin dancers. Not sure why any of the better couples didn't try out for the show. I thought these two were good, but not stellar.

Maybe better ones tried out and didn't get through. That happens sometimes. Not all the good dancers get in just like American Idol..that pass by some of the best singers and then let the ridiculous ones get through.

They made me think of that movie with Vanessa Williams that came out a few years back.

Well, I must say, I'm having a bit of a hard time following the action  . I think it's because there are so many contestants and because the show can only showcase 5 or 6. I feel like folks I thought were good get sent home while others, who are complete strangers to me, are being sent through. Of course, perhaps it's just that I don't know what I'm looking at.
I don't want to put up names just yet so as not to make spoilers for the West Coasters.
Maybe I just can't watch until they settle on the 20 for-real contestants. Right now, it's too confusing. Next week. That'll be my week 1  .

I was pretty disappointed in mia michaels. I think she has an overinflated opinion of herself and I found her to be obnoxious and disrespectful to the dancers especially if they didn't get her dance down pat. Her dance by the way I thought to be absolute crap. What a buffoon. The contemporary dance or whatever they call it is a bit silly and how many times can they shake their heads between their legs?
Some of the dancers sent home clearly had talent but needed more training to broaden their horizons.
