Rhythm City and Vogue Evolution need to be Top 2. End of story. BTW, is anyone else watching Diddy's "Starmaker" besides me? It's such a broke-ass version of "American Idol," but I still enjoy it.

I live for Vogue Evolution, they were incredible. All the crews brought it last night, so anyone can be in the bottom 2. Lil Mama was way out of line in her comments, Leiomy had been upset last week because a close friend to the crew and mentor to her passed away. Convenient for them to leave that out.

lil was totally out of line ... Especially with her " you were born a man, becoming a woman, so act like a lady"

ugh.....
[info]amanda_aces 31st-Aug-2009 02:28 pm (UTC)
Wait a minute, Lil Llama said that to Leiomy?
[info]lime_skittles 31st-Aug-2009 03:30 pm (UTC)
Well, Lil Mama would know.....
[info]whitegirlthin 31st-Aug-2009 05:25 pm (UTC)
idk, man... I totally get what Lil' Mama is saying. She just wants Ley to act like a lady, not some unnecessary diva bitch because not only does that get tiring, but it's NOT cute! Lil' Mama loves VE and Leiomy, so I think what she said to Leiomy was out of love.
[info]pikapika217 31st-Aug-2009 02:33 pm (UTC)
I disagree about Lil Mama's comments, but that was a big thing to leave out. If that's why she was upset, then that's a different story.
[info]ybfchic 31st-Aug-2009 02:38 pm (UTC)
you think they're incredibly every week, even when they suck (which they have since week 1)

What song is Vogue Evolution dancing to?
[info]stayingdrunk 31st-Aug-2009 04:44 pm (UTC)
i love this song and i don't know why.
[info]starlicious_dee 31st-Aug-2009 02:20 pm (UTC)
Why do love VE so much.......

i need to meet Leiomy... we are destined to be BFFs
[info]bloody_hell 31st-Aug-2009 02:51 pm (UTC)
IKR. Ive seen some interviews with them on youtube, they're hilarious. Prince is my favorite.
[info]thrillisgone_89 31st-Aug-2009 02:21 pm (UTC)
lil mama was SO out of line last night. she needs to be slapped.
[info]slutdrunkmystag 31st-Aug-2009 03:26 pm (UTC)
Yeah, I didn't think she was out of line to call her out on the way she was acting and treating her crew, but the way she put it... not exactly a tactful way to talk to a transgendered person.

I AGREE WITH LIL MAMA

I think that Leiomy already has a lot on her shoulders with being the face of transgender, or rather, taking on that responsibility. There are always going to be people that find fault in her for that alone, so why give them actual reason to dislike you. if you're going to be a woman, then why not be a lady? That's all that Lil Mama was saying. She wants people to love Leiomy and give her all the respect she deserves, and nobody wants to respect a bitch.
[info]pikapika217 Re: Mama knew best (for once) — 31st-Aug-2009 02:49 pm (UTC)
if was a suggestion to her.
[info]pikapika217 Re: Mama knew best (for once) — 31st-Aug-2009 02:51 pm (UTC)
but she's the one that decided to be a face and a role model of transgender. and if that what she wants, then behaving like a lady would be in her favor
[info]bloody_hell Re: Mama knew best (for once) — 31st-Aug-2009 02:37 pm (UTC)
But she's not a bitch. Last week she was going through some personal stuff, its not like she just acted like a bitch for no reason. Her mentor Alloura died, she was homesick, etc..... Not to mention taking hormones messes with you, MTV had was out of line trying to make her look like some bitch Diva.
[info]whitegirlthin Re: Mama knew best (for once) — 31st-Aug-2009 05:32 pm (UTC)
Exactly!! I totally understand what Lil' Mama is saying, and I'm sure once Leiomy cools down, she will get it. What Lil' Mama said was out of love, IMHO.
[info]spider_orchid Re: Mama knew best (for once) — 31st-Aug-2009 05:53 pm (UTC)
IA with her, but I don't agree with how she put it. Yes, be a lady and not a bitch, but to call into question her transition from a man to a woman is disrespectful and ignorant as hell.
[info]ybfchic 31st-Aug-2009 02:37 pm (UTC)
The final 3 will be Rhythm City, Massive Monkees and We are Heroes. Hopefully Rhythm City and We are Heroes will be the final 2 crews. VE doesn't deserve a sniff of the final 2.

Afroborike was good this week, but they should be in the bottom 2 with Vogue Evolution next week. I don't care who goes, but both of those crews are dead weight.

IAWTC
[info]nancyboy11 31st-Aug-2009 02:47 pm (UTC)
We Are Heroes and Rhythm City are the best.
[info]trequartista 31st-Aug-2009 02:51 pm (UTC)
lol @ everyone trying to say bharatnatyam, except for lil mama who was just RUDE.

also the second i saw that beat ya feet kings got garba, i knew they were going down.
[info]jeru02 31st-Aug-2009 02:52 pm (UTC)
poor leiomy.
is it hormones + inner city pressure?
[info]bloody_hell 31st-Aug-2009 02:55 pm (UTC)
+death of a mentor/friend+home sickness
[info]jeru02 31st-Aug-2009 03:16 pm (UTC)
that'll do it :(
[info]pikapika217 31st-Aug-2009 02:54 pm (UTC)
Leyomi aside, I liked RC and WAH the best this week. Afro needed to leave two weeks ago.

And is this season a lot shorter to anyone else? they used to start with 10 crews and only 8 this year DX
[info]bloody_hell 31st-Aug-2009 02:56 pm (UTC)
Their were 9 this year.
[info]nice_vibe 31st-Aug-2009 02:54 pm (UTC)
As someone who has practiced bhratanatyam and kathak for years, I can say that this was pretty cool.
[info]leave_it2_karma ILU VE! — 31st-Aug-2009 03:12 pm (UTC)
I've been reading the comments about what LiL Idiot said, and decided to not watch that part of the video. Vogue Evolution is amazing and didn't want that performance ruined by that stupid comment.
[info]bob_always_wins 31st-Aug-2009 03:15 pm (UTC)
See, for the editing that they used, Lil Mama's comments to VE seemed somewhat valid. But after reading here that one of the friends of their crew had died? Yeah, I can see why Leiomy acted the way she did now. Idk, editing has its ways.
[info]browniebag 31st-Aug-2009 03:36 pm (UTC)
One of their friends died?! Really? Then why they made VE look bad? Oh wait...
[info]no1goku 31st-Aug-2009 03:16 pm (UTC)
This season is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WEAK!!! The weakest of all the seasons by far. Maybe with the exception of Rhythm City, I bet Fly Kicks could come on here and win this season.
[info]deathofsummer 31st-Aug-2009 05:32 pm (UTC)
ia except I hate Rhythm City too.
[info]rakugaking 31st-Aug-2009 08:59 pm (UTC)
I'm so incredibly bored with this season. It's just lacking that... something, that the past ones had. I'll get stoned for this, but VE isn't even that great, their coordination is somewhat sloppy. I miss Fanny Pak so much, now that entertained me.
[info]cedes 31st-Aug-2009 03:21 pm (UTC)
I emailed lil mama last night about her fuckery.
[info]cedes my email to this bitch — 31st-Aug-2009 03:23 pm (UTC)
I've never had to email a famous person on their behavior before, but after watching tonight's episode of ABDC, I really had it on my heart that I needed to educate you. I just really could not believe you gave the LECTURE you did to Leyomi tonight. It's one thing to say that her attitude was inappropriate, but the fact that you had to remind her that she was born a man (a fact that most certainly doesn't escape her knowledge) and then try and teach her how to be a woman...it's unfathomable. The fact that you, a child, feel it in yourself to teach her the ways of femininity.....mind boggling. I feel so bad for her, she must have felt so embarassed and pissed off. For future reference, when someone says they are transgender, that means they are no longer the gender they were before, I.E. she IS a woman, she isn't BECOMING one. You really shouldnt talk about things you don't understand. The only thing worse than ignorance is when it is put forward as knowledge. For the "Voice of the Young People" you need to be more cautious about the shit you say.
[info]lime_skittles Re: my email to this bitch — 31st-Aug-2009 03:34 pm (UTC)
I'm glad you gave Lil Mama a piece of our mind, but I would bet $5 that she was also born a he and that he is not as young as he portrays himself to be.

My guess is that Lil Mama is a 25 year old man to woman tranny. No way is that a teenaged girl or whatever it is he's selling to the public that he is.
