So You Think You Can Dance Breast Cancer Video

The So You Think You Can Dance results show featured some highlights including a singing and dancing routine from Katie Holmes.  One of our favorite performances was the interpretative breast cancer dance to Maxwell’s vocals.  To this day we can’t help but cry everytime we hear our man Maxwell sing Kate Bush’s “This Woman’s Work.”

On Wednesday’s episode of “So You Think You Can Dance,” contestants Ade and Melissa performed a contemporary routine inspired by breast cancer to Maxwell’s cover of Kate Bush’s “This Woman’s Work.”

Before the performance, choreographer Tyce Diorio explained, “I just felt compelled to talk about breast cancer and a friend who was faced with it.” The piece moved the entire judging panel to tears. Nigel Lythgoe proclaimed that it reminded him why he loved dance so much and, “If this isn’t a [an Emmy] nomination next year, I’ll be hugely surprised.” Nigel called the powerful lifts and leaps amazing, and admitted he completely lost it when Melissa pounded her fists against Ade’s chest.

The anger and frustration portrayed in that one move was all too familiar for Nigel, who has several friends who have fought and are still fighting cancer. Funnywoman and guest judge Ellen DeGeneres felt privileged to have witnessed the performance, and Mary Murphy praised the couple’s beautiful dancing. Emmy-winning choreographer and judge Mia Michaels, who was visibly moved by Tyce’s routine, was reminded of her own father’s battle with cancer and said, “It was really not about the dancing, though it was a perfect portrait of what was being said.” [source]
