Dance Moms- Asia vs JoJo

The latest series of Dance Moms is back on in the UK (Series/Season 5) and a new dancer who has joined the show is JoJo. She's not a permanent member of the team but Abby has her do solos some weeks. JoJo has a unique style, very showy. I thought it would be good to do a post on her and former ALDC dancer Asia.


For more on Asia (full name Asia Monet Ray) visit this post: http://starsparklex.blogspot.co.uk/2014/09/dance-moms-asia.html

This is her solo Too Hot To Handle.





JoJo (full name Joelle Siwa) originally appeared on the spin-off show Abby's Ultimate Dance Competition. She is 11 years old and her best styles of dance are jazz and hip hop. Her mother is Jessalynn, who owns a dance studio called Just Dance Co in Omaha, Nebraska.

In the episodes I've seen so far Jojo doesn't quite fit into the group dances but does better with solos. She has a very strong personality, which comes through in her dancing. She was brought in as a guest on the elite competition team.

Here she is performing Fashion Victim.

Who is your favourite dancer? Or do you like both? According to Dance Moms Wiki, JoJo would like to do a duet with Asia! (I saw that after writing this post). I prefer Asia personally but JoJo is also good and it would be fun to see them dance together. :)

25th Anniversary of Mariah Carey's Butterfly Album

My favourite singer Mariah Carey recently released a 25th anniversary edition of her 6th studio album Butterfly. The original album was released on 16th September 1997 and featured songs such as her hit single Honey, The Roof and My All. It was actually the first album I ever bought (on cassette tape, lol) and I still consider it one of my fave MC albums. :) Butterfly was the first album that Mariah had more control over and it is R'n'B, rather than the pop (and later pop/R'n'B) of her previous releases. It also has pop and hip hop influences.  The expanded edition contain 8 extra tracks (the original standard edition has 12)- a duet version of Whenever You Call with Brian McKnight , a new take on The Roof featuring Brandy , live versions of Butterfly and My All, acapella versions of Fourth of July and Outside, an Amorphous Anniversary Club Mix of Butterfly (with DJ Amorphous ) and a remix of Honey (Another Taste of Honey David Morales Mix). I had previously heard the

Debut XG Mini Album

Japanese girl group XG have released their 1st mini album. It's called NEW DNA and was released on 27th September. XG (whose name is short for Xtraordinary Girls) made their debut in March last year and have brought out 7 singles so far- Tippy Toes, MASCARA, LEFT RIGHT/SHOOTING STAR double single), GVRL GANG , TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. The first 3 songs (or 4 including the double single) aren't on the mini album. The concept behind NEW DNA is that of being a "new species" free from conventions and limitations .  Although the group is Japanese, their creation was inspired by Korean music and they are based in South Korea. They have released songs in English so far and have been described as a global group and "X-pop". NEW DNA consists of 6 tracks- HESONO, X-GENE, GVRL GANG, TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. It is an R'n'B/pop mini album with influences from other genres, such as K-pop, dance and hip hop. My favourite song is PUPPET SHOW. I al
