Rant of the week!

An early favorite of mine, Bianca wore her heart on her sleeve. She tapped with grace, precision, and at such a level of difficulty that she made look sublimely easy, that I was sure she'd make it for at least a few more weeks. She was versatile. She adapted to other forms of dance, like in the group numbers and even in the "Revelation"-esque homage to Alvin Ailey where she praised her way across the stage. Her line, her technique, and the sheer joy of dance that she exuded from a little-spotlighted form of dance could have brought countless new talent to the tap-dance fold. In short, she was truly inspiring.

I know the decision to cut her wasn't unanimous, but did Noelle really stand out against other similar dancers, like Katherine or Mollee? Bianca had range, grace, an infectious, beaming smile, and a purity of movement that seemed invincible as well as unique.
