Final Four on 'SYTYCD' Fight Through Exhaustion And Physical Pain
With less than 36 hours to go before the "So You Think You Can Dance" finale, today comes word that two of the final four dancers took a trip to the emergency room. US Weekly reports 'Twitch' Boss and Joshua Allen were treated for dehydration at Cedars Sinai hospital after collapsing at a weekend rehearsal. The news comes as no surprise as all four dancers, Twitch, Joshua and the remaining females Katee Shean and Courtney Galiano, were candid with Access Hollywood on Friday about the emotional and physical toll the show is taking on them.
Katee, a 20-year-old student from San Jose, California, revealed that after the morning press junket they had an 11 hour rehearsal day ahead of them,"Your bodies are starting to get those long hour rehearsal feelings in you."
20-year-old Commack, NY native Courtney told us she was excited for the finale but it has been a long, tough road, "It went by so quick. It's just been an emotional, physical mental roller coaster for all of us. I think all of us feel like we can do anything after this because we have pushed our bodies to the limit we have pushed our brains to the limit."
Twitch added, "Me knees don’t hurt, My back feels so good." This caused Courtney to declare, "This is Access sarcasm!"
When asked if she was feeling tired Courtney couldn't hide her sarcasm, "I'm not tired at all. I don’t know what you are talking about. All rested up. I'm not bruised or swollen. My feet aren't messed up."
Twitch and Courtney aren't the only ones feeling the bumps and bruises. Katee says her partner Joshua’s strong hands have been a constant source of pain, "I have like hand bruises all over my body. Sometimes he doesn’t realize how strong he is. Although I know he will never drop me."
Despite all the bumps and bruises, Joshua says he would not give up this experience for anything in the world, "This is like homestretch right here. So, its really cool that I'm here. I feel so blessed to be here."
The "So You Think You Can Dance" finale airs Wednesday night on Fox
