It makes me feel sick to my stomach …. When I shared a picture of my tattoo on my Twitter page and said, ‘ALL LOVE is equal,’ a lot of people mocked me – they said, ‘What happened to you? You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me. At one point I had to say, ‘Dude, everyone lay off.’ Can’t people have friendly debates about sensitive topics without it turning into unnecessary threats?” - Pop star Miley Cyrus on her marriage equality tattoo - - - - - - - - - - -

Where is Mia Michaels from SYTYCD?

Whatever happened to Mia Michaels? Was she fired? Was she let go?

Actually, these are the many questions people have been asking me recently.  At least the fans, and my friends who love So You Think You Can Dance.  

According to E online, before you start thinking there was some huge drama backstage or in the dressing room, Mia left at her own accord.  Looking upon the years ahead, she will be starring in her own Bravo reality show, writing a book, and is currently developing a Broadway show.  As people in this industry know, we all have dreams we wish to fulfill, and I'm sure others will agree.
"Last year when I was sitting on the [judges] panel, I knew it wasn't the right fit because I felt too glossy sitting on the panel," she exclusively tells us. "People were so focused on what I wore and my hair. I wanted to get dirty and back to the work. I am an artist and I'm a visionary. I need to paint my world now and not be constantly linked to So You think You Can Dance."
Not that she doesn't appreciate what SYTYCD has done for her. "It's been a great platform," Michaels says. "It was a wonderful platform. I'm staring at [my] two Emmys right now. It was an amazing, amazing thing for me but I feel like I have to fly. I have to now focus on Mia's world."
Personally, I didn't think she fit at the judge's table - I'll be the first to admit it.  

If you know Mia, or get to know her,  she's a very talented and active artist; Sitting down was not her forte, and everyone knew that. Hell, I read about it in the morning papers, and online blog sites.    Before the interview was finished, she did manage to say this, "I heard they're bringing Mary Murphy back and I'm really happy for her," Michaels says. "I've sat in that chair, but I feel like that was Mary's chair."

And it's true, it did feel odd without Mary Murphy there; I constantly brought it up, and so did the rest of the world. Who knows? Maybe she'll choreograph a dance routine this season, and we'll get to see her creative talent once again.  

If not... we wish you luck, Mia.  Good Luck, and God Bless you and your endeavours - you'll truly be missed.

Mia just wasn't right for that chair, she was letting her anger out on everyone. The need to get rid of little c

Never been a fan of Little C, and am over Mary. I wish Mia would at least be doing choreography!!

Unknown said...

Yeah, I think she might, I don't see why not. She just has dreams unfortunately for us :-(

Interested in seeing what show she is going to have on Bravo. Are you watching Platinum Hit?

Unknown said...

No, what is that?

Ryan said...

It's not important, my love. It's on Bravo.

Just kidding. :)

I already miss Mia, even though she was a better choreographer than judge. Maybe her new show will be worth giving a try. That is, as long as she doesn't raise your blood pressure, my angel. I know how she has that effect on you.
