Guest Malice_Kaiser Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 It's weird but their first dance, the Taylor Swift one, ended up being my favourite. I don't think any other performance topped that one. Amazing. Me and my boyfriend both freaking love these guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ketchup? Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Finally, a thread for them! I loved loved loved their 'Yeah' performance. That was my all-time favorite. They always cracked me up week after week with the little hand thingies they would do during elimination. And Justin Valles... such a cutie!

Guest ` jenn Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 I thought they werent as strong as blueprint crew. they werent very strong at all, they just used comedy to gain points. my friend said before that they were gonna win from the beginning because they were asian, and the asian community is strong, i didnt believe him until now. plus they acted too gay for my liking. by the way this is IMO. So no disrespect or anything, but its just how i see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest isuzu_1 Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Oh man, these guys are so hilarious. So charismatic, and totally confident to just eff around and make fun of themselves to give us laughs and giggles (ie. "Welll....It's because we are the asian. And we have the small eye...sooo...And we like robot" - Can ROFL) And sometimes I just wanna hug them, cuz they are so cute! And they are from WESTMINSTER! What up! Thanks OP for starting this thread. I wouldn't have known them otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nancxy Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Their first performance was the best! Congrats! Represent Although I think they tried too hard to be funny and stuff...

Guest PH4T Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Their Taylor Swift Performance was my favourite. Personally I think Blueprint Cru should've won. But congrats to them. It's nice to see that Asians are getting positive media exposure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest __herodreams Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 ^ you know they're not letting anymore all-asian crews on the show after this season? i don't know if it's been confirmed yet, but i read somewhere that the maximum number of asian members per crew is 2 T ^T if you haven't noticed all the asian crews win with the exception of we are heroes. i dont really LOVE this group. their to gay for me. when watching them it felt kinda awkward with them all touching eachother and butts all up in eachother's faces. im glad they won though, since there asian LOL ^ aren't a lot asians a little touchy? Lol, for example, super junior + other korean boy bands? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Let me start off saying, that I wrote that article, not for attention, not for the followers, not for reblogs and likes, but as my own personal experiment. Feel free to think that it was for any other reason and hate, but it’s not true. No, none of that information was true, but a good majority of viewers thought it was absolute truth, not even stopping to think about the authenticity of the words. To clarify, there will be no ban on Asian crews during the next season of America’s Best Dance Crew, provided there is one." they are entertaining and talented. too gay? HAHAHA. dont even get me started on korean boybands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kandi Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 ^ i think thats the difference tho - western cultures arent all touchy-feely when it comes to guys. guys are meant to be macho etc. While in asia its much more different. eg when jae beom (korean american) did his first mouth to mouth game on idol army and the love games with 2AM, he looked really awkward and said things that demonstrated he was not used to these things. ANYWAY! i amend these guys for dancing to taylor swift haha! but still they werent as captivating to a lay person like me to dance compared to quest and jabbawookez.
