So You Think You Can Dance is less than two weeks away from crowing Mzansi’s favourite dancer and last night saw the show saying goodbye to Lee Piedt and Darren Greef who danced the Samba and Contemporary in Saturday's show. Lee, a 25-year old contemporary dancer from Cape Town who has worked with Danny K, Loyiso and the late Lebo Mathosa, bid an emotional farewell after head judge Harold Van Buuren told her she had danced for the last time. “I feel privileged to have come this far,” Lee said. “I want to say thank you to South Africa for allowing dancers to show the world what the young people of this country can do.” Before announcing that Lee would be going home, Harold told her that she had “incredible strength for a female dancer” and would give any male in the competition a “run for their money”. In the end her lack of versatility in other genres let her down. Harold revealed that the judges had been unanimous in their decision to let Lee go instead of her fellow Bottom 2 contender Kim McCusker. Harold, Didi Moses and David Matamela were also unanimous in sending 20-year old Darren home after he and Ashley Searle were voted the two male dancers in the bottom. Dubbing the tap dancer “Mr Personality”, Harold had told Darren he needs to display “more masculinity” in his dance work to go to the next level. “I have learnt so much to take into the industry during the competition,” a very choked-up Darren said. The pressure is now on for the countdown to the end as Kim, Ash, Elizma, Marise, Thabiso and Bathembu prepare to dance for a place in the Top 4 on this Saturday's show. In next Tuesday night’s results show (28 October) the two couples who receive the least number of votes after Saturday’s show will literally be dancing for a place in the finals - with one guy and one girl seeing their last shot at taking the crown and the R250 000 worth of prizes.
