This week we had to make up two dances! One of them was the 80's challenge where we got to dress up and dance to some old school songs. It was fun, but we didnt end up having the craziest performance in this section. After that, our next challenge was the "classic dance movie challenge." We were given a scene from the movie "Breakin" where the character Turbo is popping and animating with his broom. We KILLED this performance! We did this mirror trick that has never been done before on any dance show.

But the best news...we got enough votes to make it on to next week which means we're one of the final 2 crews in the competition!!!

Janet Jackson week was crazy! We started off with a group number to "Rhythm Nation" which turned out really well. It was fun working with all the other dance crews for once. We also got the song "I Get Lonely," which was perfect for our style. The audience went nuts over our performance. Let me just say that the whipped cream and chairs made everyone go wild along with the strong presence of our ladies playing the role of Janet. This was one of our best weeks. Shane said it was the best performance of the night and we are more then ready for next week.

Last week we danced to a master mix of Chris Brown's hit song song "With you." The challenge, however, came during the second half of the song where each crew had to make a break stopping transition into a super fast mix of dancing. It was a very difficult week for us and we struggled with the fast part because it was insanely intricate. We finally pulled off a decent performance, and the audience loved it. The judges were a little bit harsher this week. However, their criticism is always constructive. Every group on the show had a rough time. We killed the Chris Brown part but the fast part was a little harder. I'm so excited about this week. I can't give away the challenge, but the song perfectly fits our style! Shout out to all the fans! Love you guys!

This past week we had the "Rock the title challenge." It was a really difficult task where we had to literally make our dance according to the title of the song.

]]> We received the song "Snake" by R. Kelly. The process of coming up with concepts for a snake was frustrating! There were so many concepts we threw away, and so many ideas we had to run through.

In the end we ended up having a very clean and creative performance! We had snake baskets and the girls came out of them in the intro.

Andrew did a floor snake glide which drove the audience wild. Our ending was hilarious.

The judges did not have any bad criticism or negative comments to give out this week.

I think JC Chasez summed up our performance when he said "You guys really captured my imagination!". It was a really good week for us. Hopefully we will nail next week to stay in the game! Shout out to the fans. We love you guys!

This week is the "Video Star Challenge", which requires us to duplicate a music video in the best way possible. Our song is Usher's popular single "Love in this club". We had a lot of fun learning this dance!

]]> It's just one of those songs that make you want to get up and move.

Usher is also a music icon that we look up to, so we wanted to prove that we could live up to his name. The choreography was very complicated! There was this one move where we had to spin about four times in a row. It was difficult to learn, but we pulled it off!

This week was a lot of fun, we are really looking forward to next week.

SoReal Cru would like to give a shout out to all our fans that keep supporting us through out the show. We love each and every one of you guys!
