According to the “So You Think You Can Dance” fans we’ve polled in our predictions center this summer, contemporary dancer Mariah Russell has been the season 16 front-runner almost since the top eight. But now that we’re down to the final four, we think there’s a new dancer to beat. So who has overtaken Russell on our racetrack, and can the former favorite still find her way back to the top after tonight’s final competitive performances?
As of this writing Russell’s own dance partner, b-boy Bailey Munoz, has jumped into the lead with 8/13 odds of being named America’s favorite dancer. That may be because of his strong showing on “Top 6 Perform” night, when he had not only a stellar duet with Russell, but also one with “Sytycd” all-star Koine Iwasaki, another showstopping solo routine, and a powerful group number with the other male dancers. Meanwhile,...

Going into the Labor Day show on Monday night, September 2, six dancers went in, and by the end America’s votes decided the four finalists who would compete for the title. Find out what happened below in our live blog with all the minute-by-minute developments as they happen.
Contemporary dancers have ruled the live shows, taking 5 of the top 10 slots coming out of the Academy rounds. Their dominance was even greater in the top six; they made up two-thirds of this week’s remaining contestants: Madison Jordan, Gino Cosculluela, Sophie Pittman and Mariah Russell, who went up against lone b-boy Bailey Munoz and ballroom specialist Ezra Sosa. So there was a chance that contemporary could sweep the finals.

So You Think You Can Dance‘s quartet of judges had an unenviable task on Monday night: Take a group of astoundingly talented male dancers, and cut it down from 10 to five.
Last week, Nigel Lythgoe & Co. made similarly tough decisions with the ladies, selecting only five of them to advance to the Top 10 and the live shows. This week, it was time for the gentlemen to make their cases — but some of them just weren’t persuasive enough.

It took a while to get here, but the top 10 dancers finally performed live for America’s vote on Monday night, August 6. They were paired off, and each of the five couples had to dance two routines, so everyone got to perform one dance in their signature style and one in their partners’. For ballroom dancer Cole Mills, that meant performing a contemporary routine with his partner Hannahlei Cabanilla. But you’d never guess that wasn’t his natural style.
Judge Nigel Lythgoe pointed out how rare it is for a ballroom dancer on “Sytycd” to excel in the contemporary style. He even compared Mills to another dancer on a rival dance show, likening the young contestant to Emmy-winning “Dancing with the Stars” and “World of Dance” star Derek Hough.
That’s pretty high praise. Do you agree? Watch Mills’s performance with Cabanilla above, and read what the judges thought of their performance below.
