'SYTYCD' Alums Travis Wall and Nick Lazzarini to Star in Reality Show

Get excited, So You Think You Can Dance fans! Two of the show's biggest stars will be starring in their own reality show on Oxygen in 2012.


Travis Wall and Nick Lazzarini

Oxygen's new docu-series -- tentatively called All the Right Moves -- will feature Emmy nominated choreographer Travis Wall and his lifelong friends and roommates Nick Lazzarini (winner of SYTYCD season one), Teddy Forance (dancer/choreographer) and Kyle Robinson (recently featured on Dancing with the Stars).

Together the friends are joining forces in a bold and risky move to launch their own dance company, Shaping Sound. With their careers, reputations and friendships on the line, they will strive to change the world of dance forever and achieve their dreams of giving background dancers a chance in the spotlight.

There have been a lot of dance shows out there, like MTV's Dance Life -- featuring Lazzarini's SYTYCD rival Blake McGrath -- and several shows with choreographer Laurieann Gibson. Do you think All the Right Moves has what it takes to steal the spotlight? Leave a comment!

'So You Think You Can Dance' Season 8 Top 20 Performance Recap (Take Two!)


Last week So You Think You Can Dance kicked off by the judges deciding to not eliminate any of the top 20 dancers -- at first from the series! But that means that this week two guys and two girls will be packing their bags. The dancers were also partners up with the same partners as last week.

Joining Nigel Lythgoe and Mary Murphy on the judges panel was none other than dance legend and jazz hand enthusiast Debbie Reynolds!

'So You Think You Can Dance' Season 8 Top 20 Performance Recap


Tonight the top 20 dancers on season 8 of So You Think You Can Dance took to the stage for the first performance and voting night of the summer! Each of the top 10 girls and top 10 boys were paired up together to perform one routine.

Unfortunately, dancer Mitchell injured his elbow during rehearsal and was put on doctors orders to sit out the night. That means he did not dance this week and will automatically be up for elimination. Dancing in his place was SYTYCD season 7 favorite Robert Roldan.

Check out the vlog for a recap and opinions on tonight's performances:

Meet the Top 20 Dancers of 'So You Think You Can Dance' Season 8


So You Think You Can Dance will merge the concept of previous years for its eighth season. Executive Producer and Judge Nigel Lythgoe announced on Thursday night's show that Season 8 will go back to its original format of featuring 20 new dancers -- 10 boys and 10 girls -- for the start of the competition. But, because the they were so popular, some all-star dancers will return to the show to perform with the contestants once they've been narrowed down to a top 10. Pretty neat, right?

Also, for the first time ever, viewers will be able to vote for their favorite contestants online at Fox.com/dance. Online voting will begin immediately after the first performance show (airing Wednesday, June 15.) In addition to online voting, fans will continue to be able to vote via toll-free phone lines and text-messaging during the voting window.

But let's get back to the dancers! After a few weeks of audition rounds and callbacks in Las Vegas the top 20 dancers on season 8 of So You Think You Can Dance have been revealed. Take a look!

After finding out the top 11 dancers on So You Think You Can Dance Carolyn and I have decided that we're going to vlog our recaps of Season 7! Check out our intro vlog about the upcoming season.


And just for shiggles, please enjoy this hilarious blooper vlog. Carolyn is very sunburned from a recent trip to the beach and I think the extra rays may have affected her brain.

'So You Think You Can Dance' Announces 12 All-Star Dancers

Last month Fox announced that there would be big changes to the new season of So You Think You Can Dance. The show will utilize past dancers or "all-stars" as partners to the new contestants. Each all-star will represent one style of dance, and the new contestants will be partnered with a different all-star one each week.


Executive producer and judge Nigel Lythgoe has been leaking the names of the all-stars over the last few weeks, but SYTYCD has officially announced the 12 former contestants who will debut when season 7 of the show premieres. Here is some info on the all-stars and the styles they will be representing on the show.

Big Changes for the New Season of 'So You Think You Can Dance'

After a fairly lackluster sixth season producers are shaking things up for season seven of So You Think You Can Dance.

Kelsey McNeal/FOX

This next season of SYTYCD will feature 10 dancers and instead of being paired with each other they will be paired up with a former contestant from a past season of the show. Interesting, right? Check out all of the So You Think You Can Dance All-Stars here.

That means that SYTYCD will basically be run like Dancing with the Stars, with the contestant paired up with and expert. But on SYTYCD the contestants will actually have a different partner each week. Each expert/past dancer will be representing their particular concentration of dance. No word yet on who those experts from past seasons will be, judge and execute producer Nigel Lythgoe said he will be revealing the names over the next few weeks. Could be a great way to keep long-time Dance fans coming back to the series.

I personally love the idea of having the past contestants back on the stage. The main reason that I didn't love season six was because I didn't take a liking to any of the dancers, so I didn't want to watch. If I knew past favorites like Lacey Schwimmer, Travis Wall or Neil Haskell were going to be back on the air I'd totally tune in. I also think it's a great way for Dance to retain it's top talent. I'm sure they would have much rather kept Schwimmer or Chelsie Hightower than have them go on Dancing with the Stars, right?

The new season of So You Think You Can Dance is set to premiere on May 27, 2010.
