'SYTYCD': Allison Holker out, Katee Shean in
"So You Think You Can Dance" has had its first sidelining injury of the season, but at least it's not a competitor. All-star Allison Holker, who's consistently wowed the audience and overshadowed her partner this season, is out for the week due to an injury.
"Hey guys I have to sit this week out of #sytycd I hurt my ribs but I'm gonna rest and heal and I'll be back by next week!!" she tweets. She recently paired with Kent Boyd for a jazz routine choreographed by Mandy Moore.
Although she'll be missed, at least another fan favorite, Season 4's Katee Shean will return, most like to sub in for Holker.
Judge Nigel Lythgoe tweets, "the rumour is true that Katie Shean is on this week's #SYTYCD. Happy 234th birthday America. Do I have to leave the Country tomorrow?"
And then adds, " Doh!! Sorry Katee Shean will be on #SYTYCD along with Nyjel Lithgo."
For those who don't recall Shean, she and her roommate were vying for the final Top 20 spot in Season 4, and Shean had gotten the spot, despite having a defeatist attitude. Exhaustion had taken its toll, but she at least recouped in time for competition and delivered numerous memorable performances, such as these two with Stephen "tWitch" Boss and Joshua Allen below:
Happy to see Katee back despite Allison's injury?

Don't know why Katee wasn't included in this group of All Stars in the first place. She's only terrific!
Love Katee, glad to see her back for a bit!
She's great. She totally carried Joshua and I'm thrilled we get to see her again.
Yay, Katee! These are two clips of hers that I still remember. The only other one that I would have loved to see would have been the Bollywood one, that was slammin'!
Its possible, though not probable, that Katee is only going to be on the show for the all star highlight on Twitch, recreating that routine. I hope she will be dancing with a contestant though.
i love katee.. i hope shes part of the all-star, anyway she got the top votes for girls during season 4 right? i think she deserves to be in the show not only as a sub but really paired with the contestants... great to have you back katee....
Sooooooooo exited to see Katee back--if only for 1 show--she definately deserves to be on this year--for more than 1 show--I'll trade Allison for her!!
this sounds fishy. they have so many extra all stars who all can do multiple disciplines, why bring in a fresh replacement?? By my count, there are now 8 contestants and 11 All stars that started the season.
Me too! SO excited to see Katee. She's always been a favorite of mine and I loved all those MEMORABLE dances with Twitch and Joshua.
okay Katie coming back is great!!
She had that happiness in her dancing that Jose and Kent have.
I hope she dances with one of them.
