Preview from the Pressbox - Chris Trondsen on ABDC5's Music Video Challenge

Chris Trondsen give a preview of what happened onstage and offstage at this week's taping:

"This was the first week we did reader’s questions from BloggingBestDanceCrew.com for each of the crews and the crews love it! You can see that in the interviews, they are really excited that they get to answer questions from the fans. This was actually a highlight of being on the show, some of them said. It's a kick for them to Make fans and now get to answer questions from them. So make sure to watch the interviews for that and send in new questions!

This week is also the first week where the viewers voted to keep their favorite crews around and the two crews with the least two votes end up in the bottom two. I  could have predicted one of the crews  bottom two; even though they had a solid performance last week, they hadn’t had a chance to really build a fan base yet. However, the second crew that was in the bottom two was a shock that no one expected. They are a fan favorite and had an amazing performance last week. Both ended up performing very well, and the crew that ended up getting sent home had a really strong performance and are at least leaving the show with that under their belt."
