SYTYCD's Nigel Lythgoe reads TV Squad and defends Katie Holmes

I won't take all the credit for it. I'm sure plenty of people have blasted Katie Holmes' crappy performance on So You Think You Can Dance this week. Hell, he may not have even read it here, but my narcissism demands that I believe it to be so.So I'm taking it personally that Nigel Lythgoe is blasting right back ... at all of us! He tried to defend her performance by saying that she's not a dancer. He then says that everyone, including MJ, lip synchs when they dance. Well, which is it, Nigel? Was she or wasn't she dancing? Sure, it was a nice gesture, but it wasn't a good performance by any means.
When Roseanne Barr went out and sang the national anthem, it was a patriotic gesture by a celebrity. It was also terrible. Are we then wrong to say so, Nigel? Does that make us CHILDREN? If "We Are the World" had been little more than awful noise, should we have pretended to love it because it was for a good cause? Plus, you told us it was going to be great.
