i've got something to tell you asia and mia we're doing a duet this weekend entitled move you two
asia has an over-the-top personality especially when she steps out on stage and the only other
performer that i think of is a drag queen they're just that over-the-top persona they're bigger than
life and that's what i want nia to be i'm really excited nia and asia had this duet this week they
look really great together but this is the first time they had a duet and so i know they're going
to need to run it a few times before they go on stage they're not going on the duo is not going on
yeah we got to get moving but we'll come back to put a duet yes because they didn't have a
chance to get pinned like they just they're not finished getting dressed maddie and chloe solos
are coming up next and we're all rushing to try to get out of the room but we haven't run
nia and asia's duet yet and i'm getting really nervous all right our next entry is number 44.
who youtube all of a sudden i hear the competition announced that the duet is up next
and there were supposed to be 14 numbers between asia nia's duet
and maddie solo asia and nia never had a chance to rehearse a duet
i think they ran it backstage no they did not
in this duet mia has extremely difficult left with asia where she picks her up over her head
she hasn't even had a chance to practice it they haven't even stretched they are totally unprepared
we didn't even warm up or anything we didn't practice at all and that's not fair to asia and i
um
everything
the duet ended up looking pretty good was it their best no but neil was able to lift asia with
no difficulty so i'm pretty happy with that what i'm not happy with is with abby she was reckless
and she totally was unprepared with rehearsing those girls before they went on stage they weren't
stretched they weren't stretched they weren't stretched i can tell they weren't stretched
being in a costume does not mean that you're ready to perform i agree
there was time for the girls to rehearse and she didn't ease that time hey hey hey hey
what it's quiet in here who told the girls to go on if there were 14 numbers
what and they had never practiced in their costume like everybody else they didn't even run anything
they didn't even stretch most importantly they weren't warmed up regardless the ability
to adapt quickly to change that's they need to be on that because when your kid goes to an audition
they could be number 185 and 183 and 184 dropped out and your kids saying well wait a minute i have
six more minutes before i step out there to do my audition no you don't when you're on an audition
you just need to be ready and that's a fact i was worried about the lift the lift was great
they practiced the lift backstage what else did they do that required all this warm-up a
roundup back handspring well a back handspring since you know everything dr holly is done with
a straight back but it's not funny or cute to throw a kid on stage and them not be warmed up
once again abby deflects the blame and turns us all into a lesson about being prepared regardless
this lesson could have been disastrous abby's lucky that the dubai performed as well as they did
we have our top overall energy petite duet trio in third place on broadway
and second place follow the leader and our top overall energy petite do at trio move you too
i'm so proud of mia the dubai came in first place and they didn't want to dance
once they adapted to the situation and they persevered
and i hope this shows abby that nia can tackle any situation that comes her way
you
