From a media release:

SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE CANADA’s Caroline and Jesse Eliminated

  • Twelve are left to dance for Canada’s Votes
  • Melissa Williams and Sean Cheesman join judging panel next week

It’s down to the final 12. Following Canada’s votes on Wednesday night, it was revealed live by host Leah Miller on CTV tonight that CAROLINE Torti and JESSE Catibog are the next dancers to be eliminated on SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE CANADA. The remaining 12 dancers will take to the stage on Wednesday, November 5 at 8 p.m. ET on CTV (go to CTV.ca to confirm local listings).

Receiving the lowest number of votes this week following last night’s country-wide poll were LISA Auguste, 27 and VINCENT Noiseux, 22, who performed a Samba routine; LARA Smythe, 25, and MILES Faber, 21, who performed a West Coast Swing routine and CAROLINE Torti, 23, and JESSE Catibog, 29, who danced a Hustle routine. All the competitors had one last chance to show the judges why they should stay in the competition as they “danced for their lives.”

After performing their solos, the judges deliberated and decided that CAROLINE Torti from Oakville and JESSE Catibog from Toronto would be sent home.

The results show opened with the Top 14 performing a Halloween themed group number choreographed by Melissa Williams. Red fabric and smoke billowed across the stage as the competitors performed as vampires to “Dragula” by Rob Zombie.

Next week, judges Tré Armstrong and Jean Marc Genereux will be joined by guest judges, and resident SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE CANADA choreographers, Melissa Williams and Sean Cheesman.

Windsor, ON native Williams has worked with numerous artists, actors and directors in the industry including Prince, George Michael, Bryan Adams and Carmen Electra, and has choreographed and performed in television and feature films including Hairspray, American Pie and Batman & Robin. Over the past few years Williams and her company, DM Creative, have choreographed and musically staged live productions around the world including Grease The Musical, HAIR The Musical, STORM, Generations, Bon Voyage, Piano Man and Undercover. Keeping her finger on the pulse, Williams continues to push the envelope in every direction of her creativity.

Calgary’s Sean Cheesman is an internationally-renowned director/choreographer who has worked with some of the world’s top entertainers including Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, TLC, Prince, Vanessa Williams, Tina Turner, Whitney Houston, Queen Latifah and Britney Spears.
