America's vote from last week determined the bottom three guys and the bottom three girls after the Top 16 finalists had performed in pairs to a dance style selected at random. All the contestants performed again on Wednesday night with the hope of impressing the judges, who held each bottom-six dancer's fate in their hands, before the elimination results were revealed.
The other four bottom-six vote-getting dancers were Bridget Whitman, a 20-year-old Contemporary dancer from Tempe, AZ; Tanisha Belnap, a 20-year-old Ballroom dancer from Payson, UT; Serge Onik, a 26-year-old Latin Ballroom dancer from Upper Saddle River, NJ; and Zack Everhart Jr., a 20-year-old Tap dancer from Kennesaw, GA.
Marcouet took the stage with a foxtrot routine with partner Jessica Richens, an 18-year-old Jazz dancer from Yorba Linda, CA. Brooklyn danced a hip-hop number with partner Casey Askew, a 19-year-old Contemporary dancer from Seattle, WA.
Following the night's performances, the judges were required to eliminate two individuals -- one male and one female -- and they opted to cut Marcouet and Brooklyn from the competition.
So You Think You Can Dance's fifth eleventh-season performance show will feature the 14 remaining finalists dancing again for home viewer votes. Also during the Wednesday, July 30 episode, a whopping two guys and two girls will be sent home.
