No, this isn’t a post telling everyone to boycott the show after Jessi Peralta and Jesus Solorio got unceremoniously booted from the show last Thursday. Though that would certainly be justified, no?

Anyway, this is just a reminder that SYTYCD will NOT be taped or airing this week. Apart from it being July 4th, it’s also been said that the dancers are getting a week off so injuries are less likely to plague them. Last season, a number of contestants, including most of the Top 6, suffered from various injuries; ranging from sprained knees to broken toes. Personally, I’m glad. These dancers come on this show to entertain and do what they love, not dance through injuries. Good job, Nigel. This may be the first smart decision you’ve made all season.

What a slap in the face to Jessi, huh?
