Whaaaat?

[apocalypsos]

Billy's out of the competition due to an injury/illness/whatever. Brandon Dumlao is in.

Also, Noelle hurt her knee -- apparently it's a pre-existing condition and the producers are maaaad -- and somebody else (I don't know who) is taking her place this week.

They're dropping like flies, you guys! What the hell? This isn't Dancing With The Stars!

Damn - at this rate only half the people we actually got introduced to last night are going to be on the show.

Well, I'm not going to miss Billy personally, although he's very good, but I really liked Noelle! It's bad if she lied to the producers, although I can understand why she did, totally hoping her knee would oh please just hold out. :(

But yeah, it is starting to be Dancing with the Stars, but these people are supposed to be pros! Man, Cat's going to have a looong intro to start the first performance show. :P

I never had a problem with Billy, but I'm thrilled for Brandon. I always feel so bad when they make it to the top thirty-odd-whatever and get sent home, so yay for Brandon! (Is it wrong to hope that some other guy goes home so that the one with the tie and the braids who was sitting up front that episode comes back? He was so nice!)

And the knee thing makes me feel bad for Noelle, and equally as bad for Mollee. Aw! I wanted cute little besties all season, damn it. Noelle must have hurt her knee pretty late in the rehearsals, though, because Russell's dancing with Melanie LaPatin. They didn't even have time to call in an alternate, it seems.

Cat can talk for as long as she wants. That woman is so damn adorable. :)

I didn't have a real problem with Billy, I just couldn't like him, for some reason. But Brandon was cool, if I'm remembering who he is.

Not wrong at all -- I wouldn't mind that myself. (He was also not hard on the eyes!)

I was thinking the same thing, poor Mollee! Those two were cuter than puppies, dang it!

True, that! I'm in the minority in that I really like Ryan Seacrest, but he could still learn a lot from Cat. :)

Remember those two guys who were eliminated at the same time? I think it was right before Amber got eliminated. Anyway, he was the Asian guy. I could swear he tried out last season, too. He looked really familiar.

Speaking of Amber, if Noelle drops out, I really hope they bring her back. It really was a crime she didn't get to stay.

Here's Brandon ...

I have to admit, just having seen the "meet the top 20" thing last night, that I am less than sad that Noelle is out of the running. She just grated me the wroooong way.

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

Heh. See, the only one out of the top 20 who's grating me on a regular basis is Legacy, but he wavers between lovable douchebag and douchebag with me. I can never decide whether I want him to literally or just metaphorically break a leg.

Eh, whatever. RUSSELL FTW! (If Russell washes out, words will not be able to express how depressed I will be.)

[goddessleila.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that's my opinion on Legacy, too. But there's just something about unrestrained perkiness that gets to me, and that's all I could think when I saw Noelle. "You're not a dancer, you're a cheerleader!"
