Oh My, The Guiltiest Of Pleasures

I can’t stop watching Randy Jackson Presents America’s Best Dance Crew and I definitely think that Status Quo should have been gone this week and the final two SHOULD HAVE BEEN Kaba Modern and the Jabbawockeez. I’m still quite at a loss for how Status Quo took the top spot- especially when dragging around all that dead weight (aka. Jamal).
There are some things I want to note about the series:
- Firstly, I started laughing when I saw the horrible Dunkin Donuts product placement. Mainly because the show is taped weekly in Los Angeles and for any of you who have never been… there’s no Dunkin Donuts in Los Angeles, hell there’s no Dunkin Donuts in California. IN FACT, the closest Dunkin Donuts to where they tape America’s Best Dance Crew is… drum roll please… in Oklahoma.
- Also, I love the random non-celebrities placed in the audience for us to look at during the show. Most of the time I have not the faintest clue who they are. Ashley Tisdale? WTF? Karina Smirnoff? WTF? I don’t care- it’s almost more pathetic than the Dunkin Donuts product placement.
- I really enjoyed last week when Lil Mama told Fish ‘N Chicks that they “did it like men”. Everyone was SO happy for them. Congratulation women, you are now men.
- Maybe I missed this piece of gossip, but how gay is JC Chasez? I mean come on! Last week with the whole scarf get-up and this week with the whole bow-tie? If someone’s not scratching at the closet door then I need to begin rethinking my gayness.
I’m definitely pulling for the Jabbawockeez to win, they deserve it. Their choreography has been so completely on point every show. What I do know is that I don’t want any of it to be over…

I was pissed when I heard Status Quo was saved from elimination. I was yelling at the TV. Frickin’ MTV rigged it. It sucks. Kaba and Jabba have been the only two consistent teams throughout the entire show.
[Shane Sparks, a noted industry choreographer and judge, also had high praise for Kaba Modern.
“I think Kaba Modern is one of the most talented crews on this show. They’re a very controlled and disciplined group.”
With the finale a week away, Sparks revealed that he had a favorite crew: “This whole time I’ve been rooting for JabbaWockeeZ but now Status Quo is the crew to beat.”]
If this quote is correct, Shane Sparks is on frickin’ crack. I can’t believe he would actually say that Status Quo is the crew to beat. O_o What kind of drugs are these people on ’cause they’re doing some massive trippin’!
I’m glad ya’ll like my show. Like Shane has been saying, status quo be the team to beat YO! they all smashing it. Ok so it wasn’t really his choice, I told him to do so… I mean gotta help my brothers out ya know? So we kind of had to call it a razor sharp margin for the votes to take my boys, status quo to the top. Problem solved! Now, im trying to think a reasonable way to eliminate Jabba’s withouth causing too much havoc.
Peaceeeeeee yall

I have been thinking more of this recent ‘rigging’ of MTV’s ABDC, with Kaba Modern getting kicked off a show. I’m sure the majority will agree that Kaba deserves to be on. Well, they should be, only to realize that MTV is doing this for their network, ratings, and uniting the nation to watch their show. Here’s why: Think about an all West Coast battle. A crew from San Diego and a crew representing Orange County. Both are massively skilled and are killin’ it. However, here is the issue for MTV. The focus is going to be on strictly West Coast if Kaba and Jabba were to make it. The way that MTV looks at it, this is horrendous for their ratings. They are losing their East Coast viewers and everybody in between. So, this leaves MTV with a problem. Do we: A. Give the people what they want, a kick $$! battle? or B. Save our viewers, Atlantic to Pacific? They ended up choosing B, with intentions of keeping choice A. How did they do that: deliver that anticipated battle tonight. With kicking Kaba off tonight, we get to see that kick $$! battle, MTV gets massive ratings tonight, and is ensured even better ratings from next week, from Jersey,to the nobody states in between, to the border of Mexico in California. AND LAST BUT DEFINITELY NOT LEAST:AS I SAY THIS AGAIN. The issue of RACE. 2 Asian crews? This type of dance was invented by African-Americans, leaving MTV with one question: Are we going to lose black audience? Putting in Status Quo, leave issue of race out of this and at the same time, give the “inventors” of this dance the ‘respect’ they deserve. I mean, without the token black crew, MTV would be doing so poorly right now. They lost all the fans of Kanye West (read further). Next, the rest of black audience? In addition, 2 Asian crews: a joke to MTV. ALL POLITICAL/MONEY/RATINGS/********. Reganomincs Much? MTV needs to stop this ********. Last time they cheated out something out of greatness: Kanye opening for VMA’s in 2007. Who did they choose instead: Bimbo Spears. And for what purpose: RATINGS!!!!!!
We all know who should be the top two.
Boom. That’s interesting.
why were they wearing RED MASKS this time? and the red suits for their encore number? anything significant about that? does it have anything to do with the RIGGING?
just asking ;)
one question 4 u:
everytime Mario says” America has spoken…..” does he really mean “RANDY HAS SPOKEN!!!!!!” does he represent the whole country?
after having changed my mind about hip-hop - my concept of it just became WORST!!!!!!
THESE RIGGED SHOW FROM MTV a.k.a. RANDY HAS TO BE BOYCOTTED IN ANY WAY. THEY ARE TOO DAMNED RACIST. FIGURE OUT WHAT “MTV” STANDS FOR.
Status Quo is just that: they leave dancing at status quo [the existing state or condition], they do nothing to elevate dance and show what a crew really is. Jabbawockees and Kaba Modern are innovative AND have the heart behind it.
It’s a shame that they are in the top because really it should have been between Jabba and Kaba at the end.
Ridiculous!!! Status Quo was boring and Kaba Modern SHOULD HAVE made it to the TOP 2. We all know that’s what most were anticipating and I hope Jabba wins now!
In a poll, 91% believed that Status Quo should have left….is MTV rigged? Who knows but BEST DANCE CREW competition is NOT the same without Kaba Modern!!! Thankfully, they will be performing in the Finale!!!

Wow! Status Quo, with their dance style, for sure they did entertained us in which they really belong. Stunts a.k.a. Acrobats belong to the CIRCUS. JOIN THE CLUB!!!. Jabba for sure with their out of the box concept and style, they belong to the dance floor and claim their prize. Its funny though, Randy Jackson and MTV collaborated in putting up a show they “RIGGED”. They should have restricted the competition just for us. I salute ASIANs for they INNOVATED the dance to make it look good and taken it to the BEST to inspire would be dancers that always think out of the box and “NOT copy the BOX”. We should thank them and give them the Prize instead of giving it to those who only think “INSIDE THE COPIED BOX”
