Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, FOX, So You Think You Can Dance, News

Next week, FOX will pay tribute to the King of Pop’s musical library. Now the network is planning to honor his contributions to dance.
Hours after Michael Jackson’s death, plans for a special So You Think You Can Dance were in the works. Based on a series of tweets started by Nigel Lythgoe, we may soon see an MJ-themed broadcast with numbers from Wade Robson (a former Jackson back-up dancer), Mia MIchaels…and former Janet Jackson-choreographer Paula Abdul.

Katie Holmes to Appear on So You Think You Can Dance?
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, FOX, So You Think You Can Dance, Gossip, Rumors
UPDATE: It’s being reported that Katie Holmes will be doing a Judy Garland tribute.
She went from acting on the stage to doing a cabaret-esque number on Eli Stone. Now Katie Holmes is prepping to kick things up a notch.
According to multiple sources, the actress has been in secret rehearsals for an appearance on So You Think You Can Dance. Why Holmes? That part is not entirely clear. (Her Broadway stint didn’t exactly involve song or dance.) But it’s rumored that Katie may be one of several special guests turning up on the program’s 100th episode.
Although Nigel Lythgoe has confirmed meeting with the Mad Money star, he has not elaborated on what the one-on-one was about. Those in the know claim Katie has been privately “working with the choreographer Tyce Diorio” for a long time now. “She looks incredible. She is just doing an amazing job. Everyone is absolutely floored by how talented she is,” a source stated.
If all goes as (reportedly) planned, be sure to tune on July 8th.
