#74: “Dragula” (Jacque/Zack paso doble), Top 14
So my first write up of this is actually hilarious because it was the first time I actually noticed that Zack was a thing. The reason that is hilarious is because it took him doing a vampire themed paso doble to a Rob Zombie song for me to realize that he could possibly be a contender. What the hell was I smoking, lmao.
I am less forgiving of this than I was to begin with, but it’s still not Zack or Jacque’s fault. I blame Jean Marc and his ridiculous concepts, and the fact that this isn’t a paso doble in any known universe. I think there were about two paso steps in this whole thing, otherwise it’s just jazz in weird costumes. I have no idea why Mary didn’t call this out.
I also am less forgiving of Jacque’s performance. It took me a while to realize what was stopping me from really getting behind her, and it’s because her performance is always shallow. Whenever she has to be fierce, she gives the same face and keeps it on for the entire dance. Sometimes I believe it more than others, but I dunno, I think it’s something that could use work for her.
But regardless, this is a vampire themed jazzo doble to a Rob Zombie song, so there’s no way I was putting this higher.
Jazzo doble! Brilliant. XD I don't recall Mary ever calling out a ballroom choreographer for lack of content on this show though. Maybe it's not her thing, but I wish she would. Totally agree with you about Jacque. She'll likely improve on that with more work and life experience, hopefully.
