Please wear tights next time.... Loved the dance but I was just overly distracted by her costume riding up in every which place. It made me uncomfortable to watch.
Am i the only one who doesnt get the outfit?its beautiful but the fact that theres so much "hanging out" doesnt match the song or the dance at all...if shes gonna wear a costume like that she needs to have tights underneath it
@BellaItalian5678 oh MAN, i saw her the the whip your hair video (they choreographed to it), and i watched burlesque after and SWORE she was in it but thought to myself surely not.. that's amazing!!
today i was flipping through OK magazine and there was this huge advertising spread for burlesque, and paula was featured in it!! i'm so happy to see her having commercial success, she's amazing and deserves it!!
I remember her years ago doing Little Bird at Starpower and having the crowd be almost completely silent while she was performing. She is THAT captivating to watch. I used to dance at Dance Explosion and as competitive as we could be at times you still had to appreciate what this girl does on stage no matter where your competing from.
omg this almost brought me to tears. Its funny how hard it can be the capture to movement of a clumsy fall in a graceful way. Bravo on the choreo and on the dancing.
i love the choreography and the way she dances. i do not love the outfit. but she's great! i wish she would have turned down the movie contract than SYTYCD but oh, well.
When I saw her audition, I literally thought two things:
1. That girl's gonna make it into the top 5.
2. God I can't wait to see what she does with some Mia Michaels choreography!!
I was absolutely CRUSHED when I found out she turned SYTYCD down. I really hope she makes it though in whatever area she chooses though. She has amazing talent and she's stunningly gorgeous. I'm definitely a fan.
i cannot believe she is not gonna be in top 20. she got a movie role and turned them down when they sed she made it. i literally burst into tears. im so upset but im proud of her for her role.
Far and away the most passionate performance I've seen. Superb. I really would have liked to see some more coverage with the costume, however. I find the lack of it distracting.-->I want to focus on the technique, not the cheeks.
I LOVE this girl! This routine is saved on my favorites, and is so beautiful, passionate, and moving. She just auditioned on SYTYCD Season 6, and she passed to Vegas. She will definitely be a favorite of mine! Go Paula!
A friend of a friend knows her and she said the reason why she didnt make top 20 last season is because she didnt pass the drug test. so hopefully she passes it this season.
omg seriously?? wow. yeah i hope she makes it this season she's amazing! i was kinda pissed they only showed like 5 seconds of her audition but oh well
sytycd is not the end all-be all for dancers. There are so many opportunities out there. I hope dancers have aspirations other than performing on that show.
she danced it really good but the only thing is that i couldnt take my attention away from her outfit it kinda took some of the appeal of dance away from me but other than that it was amazing...like at 1:33 woww
I think I'm just in love with this solo. Amazing perform!
