New York Audition Show

Ok, we've seen the first audition show. Fortunately, there were no injuries or face plants as in previous seasons, though the re-appearance of Dave “Sex” Soller could be considered unfortunate. Who knew someone who calls himself Sex would have an over-protective mother. I agree with Mother Sex about one thing though. Sex should never be compared to Peewee Herman. Instead, he should be compared to Tiny Tim.

I thought Dancing Derrick overplayed his bid for William Hung-style fame.

Pasha and Anya were great and deserved to move on to Las Vegas.

Heather Zampier is the girl with the hip injury and the 12-going-on-13, tattoos. She was smooth, with amazing balance. My only question is, did it hurt to watch her, knowing what she had been through?

Let's hope the girl who teaches kids break dancing cleans up her mouth around her students.

Hannah-Lee Sakakibara had fallen through a floor in Israel, but stood strong in New York and moved on to Las Vegas after passing choreography.

"Wild and big and crazy" Jamal made it through too, but not his buddy E-knock. Jamal was fun to watch, but I don't see him getting through the Las Vegas round. I think E-knock showed more versatility and potential for growth. He was fun to watch too.

Stanislav's sister Faina danced beautifully and will be one to watch.

On to LA for next Wednesday's 2-hour show.
