My dancing was… the other dancers couldn’t keep up. I felt like even with my singing, the music track couldn’t keep up with me rhythmically or even on key. But that didn’t stop me, because I’m a consummate professional. And I think the judges got it wrong in eliminating me, because I believe that I had so much more to offer, and I should have been in the finale, but to each their own” to Entertainment Weekly.
