So You Think You Can Dance Australia

Final 8 Verdict (1x19)


: 07, 2008

Can you see it? It's there, just cock your head, and squint real hard…. Yup, the finishing line is coming up on the horizon and tonight we're one step closer to knowing who will be Australia's favourite dancer. Ladies and gents, your Top 6 is here. But hey, let's cue flashback anyway. Lights, camera, action and hey, here's another awe-inspiring group performance from Australia's Top 8 dancers care of innovative choreographers Project Moda, who bought us Demi and Henry's House routine last night. In the words of the (ridiculously good-looking) boys themselves, the style is "Funsyonesyfunksyswingsy. It is what it says. Please enjoy." With plenty of Swing and Jive lifts, the quirky routine had a joyful House Funk flavour, showing off the playful sides of the Top 8. And in no time whatsoever, it's time to work out who your votes kept safe. First up, we took a trip down memory lane to check our first Kate, then Rhiannon's performances last night. For those who missed it (what the devil were you doing?), Kate nailed clever, complicated Hip Hop and stylish, sexy Quickstep with Jack, while Rhiannon rocked Jazz Funk Hip Hop and released her inner vixen for Burlesque with Graeme. Kate and Jack were Matt Lee's couple of the night – and the sentiment was shared nationwide – Kate was safe! Ballet dancer Vanessa kicked off the show getting agro in a Hip Hop workout and then danced up a storm to a Latin-influenced Broadway number with partner Rhys. Demi had a bumpy start with her House duo with Henry but blossomed with a Contemporary love affair. Demi has never been in the bottom three – and that streak of good luck continued, as she was declared safe! And here are the boys! The only Ballroom dancer left in the competition, Henry started out with synchronization problems with his House number before falling in love with Demi to Contemporary. Crowd favourite Jack flexed his muscles for a crime-fighting Quickstep before Singing in the Rain to Hip Hop with Kate. B
