odds and ends

Remember when Jessica used to dance like this (UCC), this, this, this, this, and this (even in that little bit she's hitting it hard and precise)?

. . . Yeah, neither do I.

I believe Tiffany actually said on a radio that she played spin the bottle back in California.

I don't think I've ever seen those first two clips before.

The UCC and the practice clip? The practice clip has been floating around but iPOMz re-upped it with better quality. As for the UCCs, all the members have their own. They're pretty interesting since they're debut interviews basically.

I do tend to wonder what happened with Jessica. D: When I had gone off the deep end with the SNSD binge, I had seen all of the "New Trainee" videos one after another, along with one video of Yuri dancing to a BoA song. I'd heard that Yuri was supposed to be Hyo's dance partner of sorts, but seeing Jessica's Trainee video at the time actually made me think she would have suited the role a bit better just because both videos (Jessica's and Hyo's) showcased such different styles.

(Since I don't think you have it posted, I'm referring to this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pYgQw5Hhxw )

I wonder sometimes if they were all told to tone it down or just not being given any opportunities to dance like they used to made them a bit out of practice, since we haven't really seen them do any consistently challenging choreography since ITNW.

That, and did you hear about the fan color drama? D:

And lololol@who's kissed.

Jessica's dancing has taken a markedly lazy turn. I don't know why and I think it's a bit sad. She just doesn't bring that same amount of energy anymore. During the "Horror Movie Factory" limbo game, she brought a beautiful wave though. I just don't know what happened. What happened, Sica? (Ah, I forgot to link her teaser clip ( ... )

No it definitely has, like Sunny pointed out a bit in the episode of Intimate Note, and I tend to have two thoughts about this. One, I think that maybe she just has the mindset that since people don't tend to look at her for the dancing portion so much as singing, so she doesn't seem to put forth that extra effort anymore. More so, it's just that they haven't really had any hard hitting choreo lately that Jessica was involved in. Sure, we've had the Chocolate Dance Episode and the Super Junior cover, but the former's choreo was kind of simple due to their promotion crunch at the time and the later was more about finesse. I'd like to see them, first of all rest, but also come back and be given chances to show off their full potential as far as performance. I remember you posted about the Genie theme not originally meant to be about sailors and they had planned on a more tomboyish theme so I'm looking forward to that this next go around ( ... )

YoonA pics in CeCi. I just want to say that whoever thought that look with the bad long hair and the old fashion clothes was a good idea should be fired. I saw pics of 2NE1's? spread in W and while I felt on the fence about a lot of the photos, I wish SNSD would do an edgier photoshoot ( ... )

She even told Boom that she's not a dancer during interview part of Chocolate showcase, right?

I think this was because Boom was misleading the audience and the girls. His words sounded like he was describing HyoYeon but then he said Jessica, so I think she was protesting. That's just Boom. =)

Agreed about choreography. If Rino didn't give them anything too tough--and we've seen what she's given the SHINee boys--then I don't expect to see anything like ITNW either. ITNW-type of music is probably not something we'll hear again; they've moved away from that fresh sound.

Have a good trip, CP!
