@yendorification yea sure that's the reason. It couldn't possibly because during her partnership with Alexander she came off stale. Or the fact that Melanie danced complete, graceful, powerful circles around her. o.O

I'm sorry but Melanie just looks so much powerful. I love Sasha though :)

[Samelevennn]

I absolutely LOVE them both and I think they were BOTH deserving of the title!

Personally I believe that people are born with a certain "je ne sais quoi" and Melanie was born with it. Sasha is an amazing dancer, but in this performance, I didn't even glance at her.

The music is dubstep, the dance style is jazz. Not a hard concept people.

I dont now what it is, but i LOVE to watch sasha dance. Dont get me wrong, Melanie is an amazing dancer, but theres something about sasha, her power and love for dance maybe? But whatever it is, thats what has me still months later on youtube watching her dance again

[Lynncijavier]

This sounds like dubstep, not jazz

[WitchlightNW]

Nigel's scream at the end jokes!

@yendorification "America" is not racist, some people in America may be but that's it! I think you're racist by making that comment! I'm black and I wanted Melanie to win when I saw her audition! STFU and stop making comments out of your ass!!!

[Moony385]

is this the song nigahiga uses in YTF?

@jo282818 Melanie is technically sharper and cleaner; she is complete in her visual physical abilities; however, Sasha is POWERFUL in her soulful, spiritual presence and presentation. I'd say Sasha is a few notches below the technical ability of Melanie, but she is clearly gifted in movement as well. With just a year of training in nailing her technical ability, Sasha would be a complete BEAST!!! That girl is a force to be reckoned with, which is why it was a showdown between her and Melanie!

@JoyousinJesus In America, some are racist, some are not; its a shot in the dark. Dont EVER make the mistake of believing that racism has been squashed here; wishful thinking, sorry. Racism is soooooo deeeeeeep here, people aren't even always aware that they are being racist; it's just a part of them, a part of the fabric of our social society, just being real. EVERYBODY within this country is very sensitive to physical differences, and it sadly has a bearing in all areas of our lives....still
