Don’t forget that Katie Holmes is on So You Think You Can Dance tonight. She will be singing and dancing a tribute to Judy Garland. Tonight’s episode is a celebration of the show’s 100th episode. I’ve never seen it before, but I’ll totally be tuning in to see if her leaseholder Tom Cruise is there.
Katie has joined forces with the show’s producer and judge Nigel Lygothe as well as Adam Shankman and Dancing with the Stars judge Carrie Ann Inaba to form a foundation called Dizzy Feet. Dizzy Feet’s goal is to provide education and opportunity to underprivileged dancers.
Sadly, the show airs at 9 p.m. EST which is in direct schedule conflict with the re-airing of Lindsay Lohan’s Labor Pains (begins at 8 p.m. EST). It’s like network executives just sit around thinking of new and creative ways to piss me off. Thank you, sweet Jaysus for DVR technology.
First off, you should TOTALLY be watching SYTYCD! This is what you are missing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKxoCxalyWw
Also part of the 100th show they will be doing some of the most memorable dances so it is a great night to start watching! Plus you KNOW Labor Pains will repeat 20x over the weekend.
Second, it’s bad enough that Katie Holmes is performing, but now she is doing a tribute to Judy Garland? What. The. Fuck. I’m sorry but the only person who has pulled that off besides Liza, in recent years is Rufus Wainwright and Katie is no Rufus. I’m not sure if I want to watch to see the train wreck, or if I want to fas forward through it so I can avoid it all together.
Also, in case anyone wanted to know the backstory, that link is a video of a dance about a fight with breast cancer and having someone there to help pick you up when you feel like you can’t fight any longer.
Awww, look how cute she looks with a real expression on her face!
She does look relaxed in this picture with a natural easy smile. It is hard to believe she went from this kind of carefree girl to the sad face girl she has been for the last year or so.
I now actually believe she will end up divorcing him.
Unless she can get him to kick the cult to the curb. He is never going to recover his movie career unless he does… cause it has came too obvious he is a nut case who needs a little deprogramming.
“She will be singing and dancing”…well, she wasn’t singing, she was lip-synching, but if the voice she was lip-synching to was actually hers, it wasn’t bad. As for the dancing, it was okay. It was mostly simple footwork, moving her shoulders, and a couple of kicks, but it was very lively and cute. Not a bad performance, over all, but DEFINITELY not worth the hype (since they’ve been hyping it on SYTYCD for almost the whole season).
nice pre-recording. almost as good as the dancing. i am 100% positive that i can do that better.
1- it was lip synched
2- DANCING?? Seriously, it wasn’t even a two step. She did some walking, a couple “high” kicks, and shook her shoulders a bit. Please. It was NOT worth all the hype. I was expecting some… ah, what’s the word?.. oh, yeah, talent.
… and it turns out that she can do neither.
She sang and danced to;
Hit me with a hot note and watch me bounce?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4x5vyTCwAKE
It was excruciating to sit through – I felt uncomfortable for her..I give her props though she looked fab… I do think she should stick to alien worship instead of song and dance though.
I want to thank Wendie for all the posts. I appreciate your time since I tend to check in as a brief respite from my day. Wendie is my Beet.
I’m gonna be the in the minority but but I don’t think it was as bad as everyone is painting it out to be! Yes, she lipsynced but most of the music guests who perform on that show do.
She wasn’t off in her dance and she looked sassy. A far cry from the robot she usually looks like.
The truth be told….she benefited from good editing.
I’ll have to check the youtube’s. Missed it.
She “sung” on Dawson’s Creek a couple of times and on some Eli Stone (?) lawyer show. I wouldn’t exactly call her a triple threat. And by that, I mean, I’ve seen and heard WAY better.
She used to be so likable. I hope she can manage to pull that off again someday.
I loves Wendie!!! Just had to say that. Now on to the subject. I watched, I laughed, cried, and vomited all at the same time, because Katie Holmes has a creepy little tooth and looked like a lazy-eyed jackass. She was horrible. HORRIBLE!!! Her hair looked like shit. So did her face but that is nothing new. Yuck.
It took her months to learn that routine which isn’t anything like the Judy Garland performance and happens to be ICONIC, she might have wanted to you tube Judy’s stunning performance before taking that on. Certainly the idea of giving to the arts for kids is a noble one. We have effectively no arts or music programs left in education in this country. Hell we don’t have education really anymore, so I think the cause is great.
She’s never going to be on Broadway, or cast in a movie like Chicago or Nine. She’s a c lister, married to a controlling older man who will never let her go.
Did anyone else notice she looked at the other dancers during the bow, it was odd as thought she wanted approval or something. Odd.
she is a loser with ZERO TALENT. she married the GAY BLADE for status and is now everywhere. PUKE, SOMEONE RUN OVER THE CRUISES!!!
Wow! The host introduced her as a major star of the silver screen….are you kidding me!? She is Joey from Dawson’s Creek! She’s done some minor roles in a few low key movies and the big one (Batman Begins) she wasn’t smart enough to return for the second movie. Come on! She is not a big star, she is married to a big star.
Her performance was sad. Her singing was highschool. Her dancing….a couple twirls, shoulder shrugs and kicks. Most of us could do that.
Sad.
