One interesting thing to note since we've been talking about choreography and how it's hard to copyright lately: (See this Instagram post for more info.) Shannon Mather accused Travis Wall of copying her choreography for the dance "Medicine" last season. She had submitted a YouTube video to be considered for choreography for Season 10 of SYTYCD. Travis came up with a similar dance later in the season. He is now nominated for an Emmy this year for the dance. I spoke with Shannon last year when this all happened and we talked about it on AfterBuzz TV. See this post for more info and all of the dances. Do you think they are similar?

So many of my favorites from this past year! I agree it's going to be a toss up for the winner. Do you think we'll see Derek doing choreography for SYTYCD at some point?
ReplyDeleteI don't think we will see Derek involved this season. Hopefully in the future though…I love it when they bring in new choreographers even if they are familiar faces. It adds new energy to the show.
DeleteI didn't mean this season. I was thinking down the road.
DeleteThanks Kristyn for reporting the nominees for the Emmy for Outstanding Choreography. As with years past it really is a toss up who will win. In my opinion each nominee totally deserves it.
ReplyDeleteGreat dances to be nominated for, but do you think that Stacey Tookey may have gotten snubbed this year? I am absolutely SHOCKED she isn't nominated for Say Something, Young & Beautiful, and New World....More because of those first 2 dances but needles to say I am shocked.
ReplyDeleteSonya as well, she had great routines for In the Embers, Dimman Kryper Sakta In and "You'll Find a Way" (Switch & Sinden Remix)
Looks amazing - I am missing some of the videos - they are not playing for me? But enjoyed the ones I could see!
