Congratulations to Joshua Allen, a 19-year-old street dancer from Ft. Worth, Texas who pulled off an incredible win on the fourth season of 'So You Think You Can Dance." Joshua is the first winner of the popular Fox dance competition to have no formal dance training. The win earned him $250,000 and a role in the film "Step Up 3D."
In a conference call with reporters on Friday he spoke about his plans for the future beyond the two month 'SYTYCD" tour which kicks of September 20th in Tacoma, Washington,
"I would love to choreograph or be in Missy Elliot videos, Omarion, Chris Brown, Usher, Neo just anyone of those I would love to be in, just everybody."
And it’s not just the dance world Joshua wants to conquer. He's also a singer hoping to tackle the music world,
"Hopefully a record company tries to jump on it."
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."
"American Idol" returns tonight. Now that its here I feel like it was just yesterday that I was watching the finale from my seat at the Kodak Theater. Has really been seven months since I woke up at 4 AM to meet Jordin Sparks on her first day as the chosen one? Sadly, yes. Time flies.
Not only will "Idol" be returning tonight but its also time for those wanna be dancers, who are looking for their shot at fame, to come out and show their stuff.
