Whoa...

Okay, I just found this old interview with Jesús... Apparently he worked with Dorianna Sanchez (Seriously??? Botox disco lady??) in the Circus?? COME AGAIN?? Whoa...


JESUS SOLORIO

JESUS SOLORIO, like so many other dancers in L.A., was a home town studio star who is now learning the hard realities of L.A. Correspondent Suzi Miller Fuentes first met him several years ago at Class Act Studios in Central Clifornia. Jesus settled in Hollywood two months ago.

Suzi: Tell us how you came to LA.

Jesus: I first came out here a year ago and while taking classes, I went to Janet Jackson�s audition just for the experience, and I made it to the second cut. But from that audition, I got called by an agency.

SMF: They saw you at the audition?

J: Yes, they gave me a card and asked me to call. But I didn't ....

SMF: Why on earth not?

J: I needed to find out some things first - I wasn't really ready yet. I went back home to Paso to figure it all out, and then I got a call from Doriana Sanchez who was putting together a circus.

SMF: How did you know Dori?

J: She came and taught a dance class at my home studio. This was years and years ago. and my teacher, June Greenwalt, mentioned me to her. So, she was putting together a Latino Cirque du Soleil and she thought I might be good for it because I'm Hispanic....not the circus itself, but a promo for it. That was a two day job, and the next day, I went to the formal audition for the actual circus. There were about 20 people - it was by invitation only. Then I got the call and she said I was in, I got the job!

SMF: How did you feel?

J: Very, very happy! It was called Circo Fantastico. Dori told DDO Agency about me and they came to the circus and signed me. This time, it was right. They started sending me out as soon as the circus ended.

SMF: What auditions did you do?

J: Men In Black, Disney Cruise Lines, Pepsi, Radio City Music Hall ...

SMF: How many auditions do you usually have? J. On a good month, maybe four a week, on a slow month, maybe one every two weeks.

SMF: How do you deal with it when you don't get the gig?

J: I just know it wasn't meant for me. I don�t put myself down or take it personally. I know there�s something out there that will be right for me, and I will shine in that.

SMF: How do you support yoursef in L.A.?

J: I work a regular job ushering at Mann�s Chinese Theater.

SMF: What an historically exciting place to work! How did you get the job?

J: After the circus ended, I moved into an apartment with my friends. I looked in the papers but didn't find anything. So I went out on my own to different theaters and stores asking to fill out applications. I just kept submitting applications for things I knew I could do well. Mann�s called back the same night I turned in the application. It was good timing.

SMF: How do you have time for auditions?

J: Right now, I work nights so it gives me free time in the day for auditions. It's hard though because requesting a schedule doesn't mean I'll get it.

SMF: What do you like about LA?

J: There are a lot of opportunities here. It's also that you're free; it's a big space and I feel free when I go out because I'm on my own. I walk down Hollywood Boulevard all by myself just thinking and feeling free.

SMF: What do you think are your advantages here?

J: Well, I can dance .... some people say I have a good look ... my sense of humor and hyper energy can be an advantage; sometimes people like to be around that. Hmmm. I'm nice, which can give people a good feeling, the feeling that I'll be a good person to work with. I'm very cooperative and I like giving energy out to others.

SMF: Your disadvantages?

J: I'm short. Usually choreographers want taller dancers.

SMF: Do you see any way your height could ever be an advantage for you?

J: Some singers are shorter, and my height could work for me in that situation. Having shorter dancers behind them makes them look taller. Also for commercial purposes I can read younger.

SMF: What are your goals?

J: I'm going for a lot of goals at one time and they all connect. Right now I'm considered a dancer, but I want to become a dancer/choreographer as well as an actor. Since I'm out here, I'm pursuing it all. I'm coming up with choreography ideas to try to put together a reel and I�m writing down all my ideas. I don�t want to sound full of myself, but I have a good feeling about jmy choreography because I�m blessed with a strong imagination. I�m also writing a script and sending it to a director I found in Backstage.

SMF: What advice would you give young readers who are thinking about coming out to L.A.?

J: Know that you have the strength to come out here and make it happen. Know that you�re ready to commit to your dreams. Know that you�re strong enough to be put down and not take it personally. Know you have the confidence and the ability to believe in yourself and what you�re doing. Just be smart. Also, it�s good to have an attitude where you know you�re good, but don�t let it look or feel cocky. Just know it and show it in your dancing. Try to develop an attitude of love. Show love in dance to let who you are shine through.

SMF: Any financial advice?

J: Learn to budget your money VERY well. You might find yourself at some point with a bunch of money because a job just paid, but don�t think, OK, I�ll pay rent and then go shopping...don�t think about the money you have left as spending money; spend it on food and resources you really need.

SMF: What about finding a living situation?

J: It's very expensive. In the paper there are always people looking for roommates, but I think the best thing to do is go to dance studios because there are always signs posted by dancers looking for roommates.

SMF: What did you do at your hometown studio to prepare for LA?

J: I thought a lot about how I would budget my money, and how I could prepare myself for this other world. I made a list for myself, it was Be Confident, Always Smile so your inside can shine through your outside, Budget your money, Get a job right away, Be prepared for put downs and rudeness, and just think and don't worry.

SYTYCD or High School Musical

Mmaky, so my sister and I are huge fans of High School Musical... And by that I mean we mock it mercelessly and have had an amaaaaaaaaaazing parody planned for months (If we ever really make the video, I'll post it here). But yeah, so the second one premiered tonight, as you may or may not know, but she was going out, so we taped it, and just watched it now... And let me say... Loooooots of laughing... It's seriously like a two hour Old Navy commercial. With people dancing in the desert. And infinitely more cornyness than the first one. But my sister and I officially have a gajillion new inside jokes (i.e. "His pants are there to keep his legs from...fusing.") And ooh, ooh! Okay, so, because it was on tape, we were messing around with the speakers, and it started playing the sound for a design show on the channel the TV was set to, so it was, like, two southern voices speaking rather perfectly to the mouths of Sharpay and Ryan, and my sister fell off the couch... And then it was talking about superb countertops, and how she just loves him so much... And, literally, we were dying here. And we spent the entire time hoping for SOMETHING to make it not so Disney-friendly. I was so desperate that I swear to Buddha I heard her say, "But what about the drugs?" in the song where she's dumping him for being a bastard (The people in these movies are too damn forgiving).

But, yeah, so the point behind this story of our mocking is this:

Jaymz was in it! First Allison, then Sabra, now Jaymz?

Jesús!

teehee

Peace and Love!

CONGRATULATIONS SABRA!!!

Okay, so I don't have time to type up an actual review *fcuking homework*, so I'm just copying and pasting what I said in Ora's thread on the fanfic board.

OH MY GOD, WHO WOULDA THUNK IT THAT AMERICA WOULD ACTUALLY GET IT RIGHT (Of who was left)??? Though, I've got to say, when Sabra and Danny were standing up there, I was like, "Oh shit, I don't know who I want to win!" I would have been ecstatic for either, but I didn't want either one to *not* win.

Anywho, um, LE JES'VON ON THE TOUR - AND I'LL BE THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Okay, so when Sara came on for the Disco, I was noooooooot happy (Though I was pleased to see that they gave her a more sturdy dress this time - phew). In fact, I believe my exact words were, "WTF??? That is sooooooooo not the best Sara dance!!!" I mean, I love that dance, but I wanted some goddamn Jes'Von, or at least WCS/Jazz/Argentine Tango... And then when she came on again for WCS, I was freekin' happy to see her again, and to see that dance, but my hopes of getting a Jes'Von were ever diminishing... And I fcuking screamed when the Vagabond Cabaret was picked!!!!! GHA!! *ahmazzing*

And I am awefully glad to see that the judges seemed to be able to *actually* choose their favorites this year. Other than the Dancey and Sabreil (Which also may have been their favs, but I suspect they encouraged somebody to pick those), they didn't spread them out to include everybody. In fact, Sara got three of her dances chosen as favorites, which leads me to believe that the judges love her (Want to screw her) as much as we do (Though only Jesús... And Moosey... Fine, and the other Semi-Bi Skanks... Are permitted to).

God, that was amazing.

*le sigh*

Though the Catigel dance is gonna give me nightmares for years to come.

*shudder*


Peace and Love!

Vids

Thanks nighttiming for these vids!

Sabra and Lacey's fox dance. I loooved this dance. I think it was really good...I dunno what Nigel was talking about. >[ Sabra was OBVIOUSLY a little fuzzy animal of some sort. Gah.



Neil and Danny contemp. My sister basically killed herself over this dance and the annoying clapping because it was too great. haa. loser. XD Almost as much as "AWW. YUHMMEE?." haha. *hip twisting* XD --insidejokes-- But this was a really really good dance. GO MIA!! ...and I think that Neil should consider wearing eyeliner all the time. *drool*



Top 4-Broadway. Uh. Sexyback was better. =| But Neil and Lacey...O_O whoa.


Gah. Neil is so amazing. He has so much chemistry...he's like Criss Angel...or Corbin Bleu. There is no way you can't like him and his slightly dorky ways. =] -COOLKID-


WOW. This was insane. Made me smile. :) Danny is a champion. =D ♥


The beginning reminded me of Heidi...the ending was so Benji-esque. uh. but I really like the middle. =P
At least her dress was longer this time. =D And her song was cool.


SABRA FTW!!!!



[I'll post the rest when they're uploaded]

Moosey's Top Four Review

Okay, so to say I'm done with my homework would be the biggest lie EVER, but my dad's working on the Calculus problems that I couldn't get no matter how many times I did them, and I fell asleep reading my text for APUSH, so I'm having my dad print out the shorter version (I can't open Word documents on my computer) for me to read during lunch. The point is, I've hit a, like, 5 minute lull, and I have to do something to keep from falling asleep before I'm done with Calc. Plus, I highly doubt I'll have any more time to write this tomorrow. ANYWAY, here's my review =).

Sabra/Neil Hip Hop: Oy, I hate it when the judges tear the dancers apart over what is likely precisely what the choreographer demanded of them. Shane was shaking his head in the audience, so I doubt that much if any of the criticisms really had anything to do with them. They did what he choreographed.

Sabra/Lacey Jazz: I don't know what the Hell the jidges were talking about, because I thought that was amazing. And, um, quoi? You couldn't understand the story, Nigel? If anything, it was almost too straightforward for me. Even without the explanation, I would have gotten it. And beyond that, it was some damn hard choreography. There was so much skill involved in it, and so much control required... God, I never thought Dan would seem like the most sane on the pannel.

Lacey/Neil Lindy Hop: Obviously, that dance was damn hard, and I commend them tremendously for what they did. But the judges shouldn't have praised them as though it had been perfect. There were several moments where I noticed a move not pulled off all too gracefully, and that should be acknowledged. Yes, you can point out how difficult those lifts and flips were, and how well they did considering, but don't pretend it was better than it was, just to sway the votes. I've seen Lindy Hopping (My sister has done some), and that just wasn't the best.

Danny/Neil Contemporary: Quoi? A Mia Michaels', you say? I would never had guessed if they hadn't told us, but I loved it just the same. This is when Danny's technique and Neil's tricks really shine, not to mention the brilliant performances they both put on. Every little detail was immensely entertaining for me.

Danny/Lacey Viennese Waltz: Nothing can ever beat out an original VFW for me, but this was pretty damn amazing. I loved it, and I loved all the adorable Dancey interactions.

Sabra/Danny Cha Cha: Pretty damn sexy. Loved the interactions here, too, especially since they're my two tops of who's left. I'm exhausted, so I can't remember the specifics of what I thought watching it, but I remember liking it, lol.


My Ranking:
1) Danny
2) Sabra
3) Lacey
4) Neil


Who I want to win: SARA! Haha, but of who actually *can* win, I'd go for Sabra, 'cause that girl's amazing, and it's about time a girl win it. But I would also be quite happy to have Danny take it (Those two are tied for me, except for the fact that a girl should get it, lol). And I could accept it if Lacey or even Neil got it. I don't think they should win, but they're all four phenominal, so it wouldn't be the most devastating of inustices (Like, oh, say... Sara going home) for one of those two to get it, instead.

Random comment: I loved to see that Danny and Neil were there *snaps for emphasis* instantly in the clip of Dominic dropping Sabra on her head during Hairspray. *hugs them*

Another random comment: WTF DAN??? Sabra was indisputably (Though I'm sure a ton of you will dispute it) carrying Dominic, not the other way around. *hides from Taylor*

Anywho, there's my far shorter than usual review.

Time for more Calculus.

*stabs self*

Le Lamest Post Of Everdumb

Okay, guys, I'd love to post a review (Unlike last week, I actually have some inspiration to do so), but it's 9:00, and I have at least 4 or 5 more hours of Calculus and APUSH homework to do, so... I'll try to type one up tomorrow when I get home from school? Sound good? Good.

Peace and Love (JES'VON COMES BACK TOMORROW!!!)!

Top 8 Review

Okay, time to review... Blah. So yeah. I'm drained, so I won't write much. Yeah...

Danra/Sanny Argentine Tango: Um, soooooo the sex. Gawd, that was friggen' amazing... The pretzel thing??? DAMN GIRL! And the prevideo was hilaaaaaaaaarious.

Domren/Lauric Krump: Yeah, it didn't do much for me. It just wasn't as hard hitting as I picture Krump being. And, I'm sorry, but Nigel commending Lauren for falling just didn't feel right to me... I kind of agree, in that I think it was a good move on her part to do that roll thing back off the floor instead of just plain falling... But it made me think back to when Allison dropped her hat during Bye Bye Blackbird with Ryan, and she made it into part of the dance. Both are *sort of* along the same lines, but Lauren's involves an issue with the dancing, rather than the wardrobe (Which really can't be blamed on Allison). And I know I'm getting ahead of myself ere, but then Allison dropping her hat made me think of Danny dropping his hat tonight, which he could have done more with. I know it was Hip Hop, not Broadwaym so it's harder to just pull a face and play it off, but something about what he did just made it even more obvious to me that it was unintentional. But it was good safety wise to get it off the stage. I dunno. Anywho, Krump tonight = mediocre for me.

Laceil/Neicey Latin Jazz: I have mixed feelings here. I actually agreed with everything that the judges said, but, even so, I was thinking, "Whoa, that's harsh..." And I really enjoyed the dance. The connection wasn't really there, but I still loved it. It made me think of Mia's "earthy" Jazz last season.

Pashra/Sabsha Broadway: I loved it. I thought they were great tonight. Now, I love Pasha, but the thing about him is that he does amazing partner work... He's always there for the girls, and he's strong in his dancing, but he kind of blends into the background sometimes because he's making the girls look SO good (Not that Sara nd Sabra can't do that for themselves, of course). Oh, and LMAO... Ally, Ora... I litterally started cackling when they did that move that was used in The Lioness Hunt. *wink wink*

Danra/Sanny Hip Hop: Okay, as soon as they walked on, I wanted to STRANGLE the wardrobe people... Um, WTF guys... Not okay to make ANYBODY living or dead wear that shit, especially not my favorite guy (Who's left) and girl... I agreed with everything Adam said to that effect... But, otherwise, I dunno what the schnizickel the jidges were talking about, cause I thought they were hot. They were totally on it 100%, and, frankly, the essence of what Nigel said to Sara was, "Come on, Sara, this is your style... How dare you not suck at it more to make your partner - who also kicked arse in this routine - look better, despite the fact that we keep stressing this as a SOLO competition now..." I was like, um, Nigel... Why does your bashing sound like it should be praise??

Domren/Lauric Rumba: Another 'meh' routine for me. I thought that Dom did infinitely better than last week, and God knows their costumes were preferable... But it really was a whole lot of posing, and not much dancing. Plus the song totally brought me back to last season and the Benjelle Montage/First Video Montage that I made to that song. AND, UGH, THAT KISS!!!!! *Smacks Dominic Non-Sexually* No kissing Lauren instead of Sabra, got it???

Laceil/Neicey Contemporary: *gets teary* Now, please don't kill me for this, but the dance, itself, didn't impress me that much. I thought they danced it amazingly, and the story behind it (Along with all the tears) was successfully DEPRESSING, but I was surprised at the judges' comments. I didn't, by any means, expect them to bash it... First of all, because it was well-executed, and secondly 'cause, um, how the heck could you say something bad about that when you know why Mia choreographed it??? I just don't see it as one of those routines that will be looked at as one of the greatest on the show. I thought it was really good, but the chorography just didn't serve it as one of those mindblowing routines I'm used to getting out of Mia.

Pashra/Sabsha Quickstep: I love it, seriously. There were little bits that obviously weren't perfect, but I thought they killed it. For me, they and Sara/Danny were the best of the night. Plus, Pasha looked like Jack Skellington... Which automatically makes it cool.


Moosey's Top Four (Of the night, but also overall): SARA, Sabra, Danny, Pasha
Moosey's Bottom Four: Lacey (Though I want her in my Top Four, too... She's, like, a hair behind Sabra), Neil, Dominic, Lauren
Send Home: Dominic (Or Neil) and Lauren

If Sara leaves, I will die.

End of story.

Peace and Love!

~ Moosey ~

WHAAA!

DOMINIC.

KISSING.

EDIT: MWHAH. I'm like the only person who 'awwed' at the kiss.

Okay...maybe what Ora said was right...but so what if they looked like they were eating each other's lips? [LMFAO] I thought it looked cute. ^_^
