One of the best moments last Friday was the rock&roll of the best team: Pavel Bartoş & Luciana Muntean: not only their suits were funny and original but most of all they "played the game":they enjoyed this dance a lot, despite how tired they were after hours of training...
I also liked the idea that the remaining 3 couples to dance their best dances: Alina Dumitru & Denis Bolborea, Gina Pistol & Vladimir Palamarciuc: I put those dances in my previous posts: the gipsy dance for the first team and the Irish dance for the second... The duel had benefit of the 2 dance groups' participation and so the competitors got well syncronised. Denis was a member of one group and Vladimir of the other, as they danced a lot in the past ...
Wait for my post about the 28 of nov. edition when we'll find out who the big winners will be!!!It is expected to be a catchy show with 3 dance styles for each couple: musical, freestyle and improvisation ! As a bonus, I can hardly wait for the special show on the 1st of december( the national day of Romania...)
Am I so very glad to write about this musical event!!! It's a wonder these days when so many good performances gather in one show. They had been so inspired to organize the musical gala this way!!! Pussycat Dolls-- When I grow up: a sexy song( like all their songs, by the way), teasing and daring.
Mariah Carey-- I stay in love : I still long for the virtuous Mariah from the past, back when she had really been showing her remarkable singing technique (and she had the right songs to do it). Anyway, she can sing live better than most of them...I like her outfit: simplicity makes elegance shine!
Beyonce-- Single ladies : great opening of the performance; she is so attractive, full of energy. Beyonce can boast about her dance moves, saying so much about her as a woman and as an artist. Her voice sounds wonderful live!
Alicia Keys & Queen Latifah-- Superwoman : now, this is a surprise! A special song with a message so important to all the women in this whole world sung by ...well actually by three very talented women...I admit not knowing who the third female singer is, however it stroke me her opera voice (black female singers have so many times fabulous voices!)
Christina Aguilera-- she has chosen to impress us with a medley of her hits. She had problems with her voice; however she appeared as a good entertainer. I appreciate the fact that she returned to the retro style, as the lates changes of her look were weird, to say the least... Anyway, it doesn't mean she's less
Leona Lewis--Better in time: what an honor! She's almost as gifted in music as Whitney Houston or Mariah Carey! Time will tell and it's up to her to show it...Plus she has so much common sense...
This time I wasn't so happy to write about the show...Not to mention it was a disappointment for many, including C. Patrichi, one of the most respected judge...After a series of marks of 10, the team Marius Nedelcu & Alexandra Seleş was eliminated.......For those interested I post a link to a Romanian blog entry discussing the injustice: http://glossymagazine.ro/2008/11/15/dupa-un-sir-nesfarsit-de-10-marius-si-alexandra-au-parasit-dansez-pentru-tine.html I think that the public shouldn't be the one to make such a serios decision- exclusion of a team from the contest... their judgement is mainly emotional based on the gravity of the case...
Another team that got accustomed to mesmerize us has won first place again: Pavel Bartoş & Luciana Muntean : what a daring tango - especially talking of her performance; need to say something more of their R&B ? It was so full of personality...and original....Victoria Bucun rulz again!
There was another sensual tango which made a good impressionGiulia & Andrei Ştefan:
Despite what I said about the result of the duel, I think the way it developed was interesting, it had the spectacular sparkle: the suit changes....
This Friday's show had some memorable moments . One special team, especially thanks to the wonderful artistic personality of the trainer Victoria Bucun, left everybody speechless once again: Pavel Bartoş & Luciana Muntean
I don't enjoy electric boogie, but what they performed was a proof of creativity and it was more than a simple form of breakdance...It's obvious that the trick of hiding P.Bartoş without the burden of performing difficult moves worked in their favor, though the jury noticed the drill...Anyway it shows how hard they both worked...
When one talks about waltz, one of the most beautiful is performed by the talented Laura Cosoi & Bogdan Boantă: wonderful!!! (though it was simply a short demonstration)
By the way, the costumes are splendid! What can I say about the waltz of another team: Alina Dumitru & DenisBolborea... I liked the idea, however the marks seemed a bit too low to me... A well-inspired trick as the change of costumes during the performance can really make the difference: it's so simple and yet it makes a good impression...
The most expected surprise of Friday night was a duet: Ştefan Bănică Jr. & Stela Popescu: words are not enough...I'm attracted by the retro atmosphere bringing us back when people were more...human and romanticism was highly valued ... More than anything dancing & music give an accurate taste of those times... Stela Popescu performed a lot with Ştefan Bănică Jr.'s father ...there were moments when his voice sounded like his father's... Stela Popescu looked great at her age and she acted as she always enchanted us: a great entertainer!
I was impressed by the outfits not only the ones of the singers, but also the dancers' who lured us so artistically to travel back in time and dream
One of the best dances last Friday was the Charleston of the couple
Pavel Bartoş & Luciana Muntean:
Frankly, I didn't see Charleston this way... However they performed great, so much creatively, with irony, playfulness ...Of course, their trainer Victoria Bucun proved once again her talent and sense of humor, directing them to play a couple of parts suitable to their abilities and styles: Pavel Bartoş is a bit slow and heavy: he's more an actor than a dancer, while Luciana Muntean is a great dancer, very flexible and graceful. Anyway this "experiment" was a bit risky, as their trainer provoked them to dress as the opposite sex...Pavel Bartoş dress was hilarious, by the way Their ingenious trainer repeated the stratergy for the folklore dance as well: she put at good use his acting talent: the part he played is one allowing him somehow to move clumsily and slowly :
It was quite unfair to see Marius Urzică & Larisa Pleşca leave the contest. They deserved better, that's for sure: she's so talented , ambitious and sensitive young girl. Larisa actually performed their goodbay dance crying...An old fashioned charlestone reminding of Charlot...
In each show there are special guests invited to perform in order to help someone in distress, but with great potential. This night's guests were marvelous: they performed a typical Argentinian tango like pros (that's what they truly are)Please welcome:
Duffy sang live at MTV Europe Music Awards: and how she performed!!! Despite her hoarse funny voice when she speaks, when it comes to singing she's just unbelievable. In addition to that, she looked great: a naughty black dress leving a lot of skin exposed, but quite refined:
What an atmosphere: how about that red light!Red & black do wonders! I'll certainly be back with videos of her, some of them are so moving........
I'm looking forward to her new projects! She's admirable!
I usually like Beyonce's outfits, but this time her singing was the only aspect I've really appreciated: it's one of her new songs: "If I were a boy" and she performed it live very good!
I'm back with this wonderful show: see for yourself...For instance, this couple has confronted the duel, but after winning it, they did absolutely great: AlinaDumitru & Denis Bolborea: she's a judo sportswoman and their trainer was brilliant to add judo moves to their gipsy dance
I return to the couple : Marius Urzică & Larisa Pleşca. I've also spoken of them in my last post: together with their trainer, they did a spectacular job:
Their gipsy dance was great and they were helped by the wonderful song "Şatra în asfinţit" (by the way, it reminds me of the TV series "Gipsy Heart" -"Inimă de ţigan", that I'm going to talk about). Too bad they got a few low marks...
Marius Nedelcu & Alexandra Seleş danced a daring, seductive rumba with a few mistakes, but still it impresses...A dance where the dancers show emotion is a succesful one; when the dancers suggest the message of the song and they put a lot of passion in this expression, then even their small mistakes are overlooked.
Once this show had started I had a good feeling about it: it was the promise of a wonderful tv show done in the good old way: mostly live singing with a famous orchestra, in a large beautifully decorated set just fit for dancing. All inspired by a mixture of old and new. It turned out so charming and the overwhelming efforts to prepare such a complex show impressed me even more: we only see the glamor and the glitter and the smiling faces, forgetting what's behind the great accomplishments... There are many reasons why one should watch this show: not only the apparel aspects: gorgeous outfits, jewelery, make-up -- the atmosphere of a united family that's created by the contestants' moving stories, along with their courage, commitment and many times valuable talent and by the friendly interaction between them and the jury, the show presenters, other competitors, trainers. Sometimes it all bursts out with emotion that even the competent jury finds it hard to be objective... There are moments when words are not enough to express the feelings...The ambition of the competitors puts them at risk of injuries, trainings test their resistance to both physical and psychological stress. Some of them get to our hearts simply by being themselves, showing skills that were unknown even to them. The stars helping each one of them surprise us either in a good or a bad way: there are some of them who turned out to be special people, willing to sacrifice a lot in helping an unknown person. Those stars who are truly opened to learn and to progress deserve all respect. There were some disappointments, unfortunately causing those contestants to be out. However, what's amazing is that even those who had the misfortune to lose, despite all the efforts, dedication and torment, they are eventually helped to fulfill their dreams. The ordinary people who compete gain not only fame, but also hope, respect, self-confidence, strength (physical & psychological),along with learning dance skills and how to handle themselves on stage. The ones helping them, who are already famous, gain skills from professional dancers helping them to be better in their areas: as singers, dancers, sportsmen etc. Not to mention the public may reconsider them, see them in a different light, while all the participants in the show may see life in a different perspective after having the opportunity of meeting special people and going through experiences they may never forget....
It's quite stylish, just like the show There's a lot to see: photos, videos, latest news, info about the contestants, the jury and the presenters. A star of the show is the presenter Ştefan Bănică Jr.- he's a great entertainer and we may see him performing during the show. Anyway, he knows when to step out of the light and let someone else be the center of attention. Maybe it's too obvious he imitates Elvis Presley, but he does it with reverence and talent with a personal touch. There are special guests invited to the show and this contributes a great deal to its succes. They perform to help people in great distress. Here there are a few of my favourite dances in the first week : Laura Cosoi & Andrei Ştefan : Laura is wonderful: so graceful, skillful, she feels the music and she sends so much emotion. She's so charming-her posture is perfect most of the time, while her mistakes - if any - are almost unnoticeable. You get to float with her dancing dreaming smth. romantic: it's clear - she is made for clasic dance styles. But one can't help praising her for all her performances.
Marius Urzică & Larisa Pleşca - Marius Urzică is a great sportsman and this helps him resisting the stress of training. He also impreses by using acrobatics while dancing. This Indian dance has given him all the freedom of movement. Larisa Pleşca is so charming: she is proud of being a gipsy, but her face makes me think of a mulatta. She has done very well at this dance style - it suits her well. The make-up and the costumes have done a great job for them!
Gina Pistol & Vladimir Plamarciuc- I don't have a very good opinion about Gina Pistol...We shall see if she progreses and how much....Her colleague is something: just look at the photos where Vladimir appears: his wide smile can be seen miles away: this says it all about him. Anyway, his performance was a nice surprise: he may get to be one of Michael Flatley's students...who knows

THE BRIDGE (Music by Elton John, Lyrics by Bernie Taupin)
I've seen the bridge and the bridge is long And they built it high and they built it strong Strong enough to hold the weight of time Long enough to leave some of us behind chorus: And every one of us has to face that day Do you cross the bridge or do you fade away And every one of us that ever came to play Has to cross the bridge or fade away
Standing on the bridge looking at the waves Seen so many jump, never seen one saved On a distant beach your song can die On a bitter wind, on a cruel tide [repeat chorus]
And the bridge it shines Oh cold hard iron Saying come and risk it all Or die trying
It is expected to be a catchy show with 3 dance styles for each couple: musical
, freestyle and improvisation !
