Interesting point cloudkicker09. Actually I asked myself how authentic all the other ODs are when the DomShab thing came up. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love D/Ws program, it's my favorite this year but somehow I would like to her the opinion of an expert of Indian dances...

The Zarestki's come on... so after Nat and Fab delivered (and they did), and Davis/White rocked the house, what'll we see here?

for me its more "Bollywod than idian folk dance", but its still a ncie and good OD.

I'm also intrigued as to why it's so offensive that Dom/Shab have done an OD inspired by Aboriginal folk (notice it doesn't say Australian folk and they say they took inspiration from a number of Aboriginal cultures) and yet there is no offense when the Americans choose to be influenced by Bollywood and the Indian dance tradition which isn't their own?

This is a serious question by the way. Are people reacting to the fact the Australian Aboriginal culture were offended and, if they hadn't, would anyone else have said anything at all other than it was a bizarre choice for a style of dance in the first place?

The songs D & W use for their OD are modern Indian pop, from 2000s Indian movies. I guess it's not against the rules.

It's my fave OD this season, too.
