David Cook Performs "Time of My Life" on the Tonight Show

SYTYCD Top 20 - Highlights

The top 20 performed for the first time for votes on So You Think You Can Dance tonight. Out of 10 performances, these three stood out to me:



Chelsie & Mark perform the first Mia Michaels contemporary routine of the season



Twitch & Kherington are so entertaining and fun to watch as they do Broadway



Katee & Joshua's hip hop routine was my favorite of the night, and they are my fave couple

David Cook & Jennifer Hudson at Walmart Shareholders Meeting

Apparently the winner of AI has to perform at an Annual Wal-Mart Shareholders meeting. David Cook sang "The World I Know" and "Time of My Life" while accompanying himself on acoustic guitar and shared some of his Wal-Mart memories. (No "Do they sell walls there?" joke).

Jennifer Hudson performed "I Am Telling You" and "Spotlight."
