Cars 2

Disney Pixar just released the first trailer for Cars 2. What do you think?

on to the next series

With the end of Playful Kiss, I now looking at another series to watch, this looks good based from the trailer but then I like Ella (of S.H.E) from her previous Taiwan series (eg. Hana Kimi) so I think I’ll give this a go. Here’s an MV:

x factor

The X Factor Australia is currently airing and they’re down to 6 acts for this Sunday’s show. Though I don’t follow the show regularly, my favorite has to be Altiyan Childs. At first I was like why did Ronan pick him but his previous 3 performances really showed that he can be a rock star.

Series of the moment : Playful Kiss.

This is one of the many adaptations of the manga Itazura na Kiss. The Taiwan version “It Started With A Kiss” is one of my favorite series. Haven’t seen the Japanese version though.

ellen on sytycd

Speaking of SYTYCD, on last night’s finale Ellen Degeneres was a surprise guest. She “replaced” Alex on the repeat of  his routine with tWitch.

So You Think You Can Dance is one of my favorite shows. The show features in the past the top 20 dancers (the just concluded season only featured top 11 due to the new format which they were paired each week with an all star – contestants from previous seasons) from over thousands who auditioned. [side note: There also is a SYTYCD Australia as well as several other countries like Canada, UK, Greece, Malaysia, Polands, Scandinavia, Benelux and Norway] The level of dancing has always been topped from season to season. This season featured Alex Wong a former principal at the Miami Ballet Company. He gave up his position there to be able to go on the show. He initially auditioned two seasons ago and got to Vegas (the top 100 or so and where they are whittled down to the top 20) but his company didn’t allow him to go on leave to participate in the show. He I think is one of the best dancers the show has ever seen. I was in awe when I watched the routine that he danced with Allison Holker (season 2) – Hallelujah:

But one of the more memorable ones he danced was this routine by NappyTabs with Twitch (Season 4) – Outta Your Mind:

He danced the routine as if he was a hip-hop dancer. From ballet to hip-hop haha! Too bad though because I was really rooting for him to win ( I think a lot were) but then the following week during dress rehearsals he injured himself and it turned out that he lacerated his achilles tendon and couldn’t continue to compete. (I hope he had something like a NC health insurance to cover the operation) He was given a pass to Vegas week for next season, I hope he takes it up. Season 7 saw Lauren Froderman crowned America’s favorite dancer.
