So You Think You Can motherfucking Dance?!  
Warning: I am a huge nerd for SYTYCD? This is the first in what is bound to be a barrage of posts on this subject each week.

First episode of the season was tonight! After the usual set of mediocre attempts there was a guy named Chimeze who was very charismatic. Then I was really rooting for this Japanese guy's audition to go well. They set it up in the introduction like it could possibly go the Willam Hung route. Luckily he was damn entertaining! I won't try to attempt spelling his name but I will find the clip when possible.

Right before a commercial break there was a shot of a guy crying while the voiceover speculated of a dancer's dreams being crushed and I thought to myself, "Oh no, I already like this guy without seeing him dance!" they showed him crying after the judges ask him "What does the umbrella represent to you?" After the commercial is over the guy dances this amazing audition with an umbrella.

When they changed cities thier guest judge Sonja who I really love. She choreographed that FANTASTIC number with Mark Kanemura and his partner (Chelsea I think?) last year. There was brace yourselves people SAME-SEX BALLROOM DANCING. It was a little "lol wut?" and a little good. One guy was *ahem* straight and the other was gay. There was later a pair of brothers auditioning who went on a spiel during the interview portion about doing "everything" together and there was a certain air to it that I won't speculate upon since one brother was too young (16) to even audition for the program...

The last performance ended up being SPECTACULAR. Brandon Bryant (if I caught the name correctly) returned from an early elimination last year to a guy who's name slips my mind but I remember being pretty damn good and that he deeply seemed to crush on his partner who had a boyfriend in real life. Anyhow! BRANDON BRYANT was fucking solid. You can tell that year of training was good for him! I will be looking for that video.


On the subject of Adam Lambert... I have calmed down enough to post about it. It's just the results I predicted from first episode that I watched this season (Country Week -Ring Of Fire) I thought that Kris would place first and Adam would place second. I also had fallen head over heel for him in that single silver jacketed performance. As those of you around when that occured might remember, I had only made an effort to watch American Idol when I stumbled upon some glamtastic photos (http://velvetgunpowder.livejournal.com/187879.html) of Adam Lambert. My brother said that he got "a little too Patrick WOlf on 'em" and I said I anjoyed every minute of it! He was like "I bet you did!" I might need to mention that 'Patrick Wolf' is my brother's slang for gay. *Sigh* Such things need articulating when around me enough I guess.

Anyhow! As for Adam placing second, he won't be stuck with that craptastic faux-hymnal about Magic Mountains and Hurricaines... Plus he looked so damn foxy:

I NEED to find a photo that properly highlights how Phenomenal his eye make-up was! There were rhinestones. Motherfucking rhinestones!


He does look damn foxy on the cover of that AI anthem:



...and for some reason this is my favorite random non-glam photo of him at the moment:

Damn our baby looks GOOD struttin' his stuff in handcuffs and platforms! ;) He's soooo flippin fierce that I just CANNOT get over it!

Also, I too have yet to find a decent pic of them eyes during the KISS performance! Baby's makeup was INTENSE!

Also, KrAdam FTW! *points to icon that resembles gay marriage*

Also, I don't watch SYTYCD. Should I? Hell, it's not like I have anything else to watch this summer! Every last one of my shows is a FALL show!

AND yeah, I randomly comment on EVERYTHING and have a thing for exclamation points. Honestly hope you aren't going to regret friending me. :P

No way! You are fucking awesome. I have the same commenting habit and most people lack it. I was just looking through the photos from the finale for eye makeup closeups but finding all sorts of slash and am planning quite the KrAdam sendoff in [info]slashfact.
Sely: Darr/Rich[info]directmydesire on May 22nd, 2009 07:45 am (UTC)
So yeah...I just joined that comm! I swear I'm not trying to stalk you!

& have you posted those new 'Cebo pics that were up on Suckerlove there? Cause yeah...true factual slash!

VelvetGunpowder: *jaw drop*[info]velvetgunpowder on May 22nd, 2009 08:15 am (UTC)
OMG your icon!

I was just thinking that I bet you could link me to some nice photos like that of them! Hahaha. You aren't coming off as any sort of stalker. I thought I sent and invitation to that community but I must have been mistaken. Feel free to comment on any back entries and I still won't think you're a stalker! Ha.

You could make a post with those photos as a sort of introduction at [info]slashfact if you'd like. Or anything else that pops in your mind.

Oh! Have you ever listened to Patrick Wolf? I adore/worship/stalk him beyond reason.
Sely: Molko[info]directmydesire on May 22nd, 2009 09:10 am (UTC)
I listened to him just tonight cause I saw your "What I Hear Ringing" thing and was like "Who the hell is that?" only listened to that Lycanthropy song though which sounds CrAzy but kinda cool! Will have to listen more soon.

& yeah, I'll totally have to make a post on slashfact about 'Cebo or Darren's married self or SoMeThInG!

Soooo....yeah, I just had a KrAdam-gasm/Adam-gasm of my own at my journal and I've also just realized it's 5am (did you notice I'm just a bit giddy...lol!) and I should probably get in bed before the parental unit gets up and is like "I'M about to go to WORK and you're still sat in front of that PC!"

Yay! I can't properly express my love of Patrick Wolf in words. Lycanthropy is my favorite song! The prompt "her ringing" is in reference to a line in the song "Blubells"

In the sidebar of my LJ I have a teeeny video player with his music videos in it...

Is this the same brother who makes cracks about "ass burgers"? If so, sounds like a really open-minded guy. ;)

Also, Adam actually fits in with Kiss pretty good in that badass black outfit. But then again, with that outfit he would fit in with the X-Men. LOL
VelvetGunpowder: Wonky![info]velvetgunpowder on May 22nd, 2009 08:16 am (UTC)
Yeah... such is the charm of my bloodline!


...and that outfit! SAHZAAM. You can't even see the makup. There were rhinestones! Yes.
Jess[info]that_evening on May 22nd, 2009 05:38 pm (UTC)
We SO need HQ pics of his eyemakeup! It was beyond awesome. If I could get away with it, I'd wear my eyemakeup just like that to my Aunt's wedding in June, lol!

I couldn't believe Adam performed with KISS! That was awesome and that outfit he wore was 100 kinds of win. I loved that he sang "beth" because that's one of the first songs I ever remember making me cry and I had never thought of him singing it before.
VelvetGunpowder: doorq[info]velvetgunpowder on May 23rd, 2009 12:38 am (UTC)
You KNOW I have been searching like mad!
Jess[info]that_evening on May 23rd, 2009 12:56 am (UTC)
I am sure they have to be somewhere!

I seriously wanna do my eyemakeup like that sometime, lol.

I posted the best that I've been able to manage in a new entry...

I bet Robin is excited about SYTYCD! Adam didn't win? I hope you enjoyed the cake anyway! In response to jakeh3k he does look like mistique's punk rock little brother.

Re: ....
I actually didn't cut the cake for at least a day... but I didn't burn it in effigy either. It's pretty damn delicious.

Re: ....
I never thought for a second that you would burn it!
April[info]abw92 on May 22nd, 2009 11:16 pm (UTC)
I only watched the first half of SYTYCD because of American Idol Extra. They had both Adam and Kris on and I sure as hell wasn't going to miss it.

And those pictures *thud* I don't know what I'm going to do without getting my weekly fix of him.
VelvetGunpowder: Pear[info]velvetgunpowder on May 23rd, 2009 12:48 am (UTC)
Well I don't have cable so I didn't have that option. I bet he was smashing! I need to find the link of him on Extra Mario Lopz, there was some major chemistry...
Gone wrong in the mind tank: Bertie-WTF?[info]anna_rosa on May 23rd, 2009 12:49 am (UTC)
I heard on the radio that Adam hadn't won. I was really unimpressed with the voting public.....=P
