Goodbye Jessi

Her performance with Pasha was amazing. Her solo was the best of the females that night. And the fact that she did it RIGHT after being in the hospital and diagnosed with a heart condition... *sigh ( Read more... )

Ah, when they said that Jessi was leaving one of my first thoughts was "Poor Dilraj!" XD

I don't think she has a heart condition. From what she said I think it was just that she was dehydrated, and dehyration can throw the electrolites in your body out of wack, which would make your EKG off. From the way she talked about it, it seems like this has happened to her before, which might be part of the reason that the judges cut her. If she had a known issue before the competition and she didn't tell the producers about it, they might not trust her anymore.

I'm sorry that one of your favourites got cut again, but if you need to talk about it, I'm here. ;D And I'll see you on Wednesday at Lauren's.

Actually, I believe she does. They didn't mention it on the show, but I've been scanning some blogs (professional, reliable ones) who've had plenty of insider info before, and apparently the week (2, I believe it was) when they were doing the Tyce DiOrio jazz routine, she was in the hospital that week too, but managed to recover in time to perform that night. Although she missed alot of rehersal time. I think the dehydration is just a side-effect of it, or something.

But yeah, as far as the producers not trusting her, if anything having a sickness/health concern of any kind would probably have bolstered support for her, and in turn brought in more votes/ratings. That sort of thing is something the producers could have easily capitalized on.

And FOMG, we are SO going to rant about SYTYCD on Wednesday! No one else I know is really into it, so I'm dying to get a chance to talk/squee with you! Can't wait! xDD

I think that the producers were most worried that she would leave her partner out to dry again (especially if it's a constant thing), and they didn't think it was fair for someone to ride on their partner's coattails (like they were trying to get Cedric to not do). At least, that's what I would have done, and that's why I dislike Cedric so much and wish he would just leave already.

Did you see my recap posts over at my journal? I did the Top 20 performance (in 2 parts) and the Top 20 results so far. I'm hoping I'll be able to keep up with the show, and not having a new show this week will probably help me.

I'm totally going to talk your ear off about this show on Wednesday. ;D

I've only seen two or three episodes and I liked her a lot. Damn.
