Why Jessi Isn't America's Favorite Dancer


If you're like me, you're probably tired of the whole Jessi elimination controversy. Don't give up on it yet, until you've read Asher Streets' analysis of why Jessi isn't America's favorite dancer:

Jessi may have not been the most unique, but she was certainly one of the most memorable. Even though I didn’t notice the oil during her audition, I noticed the heat. Jessi is a fiery and sensual performer, sometimes making me uncomfortable with how overt she is. Others have noticed this too, and it has turned some people off to Jessi. This points out that dancers need to be memorable for positive things. Collapsing from dehydration may earn some sympathy, but objectively, it’s not a positive thing: it shows lack of care for the body and can convey weakness.
