"So You Think You Can Dance" Season 2 Casting Call
New host will replace Lauren Sanchez
February 23 2006 -- FOX has announced that they will be a casting call for season 2 of their hit dance show, "So You Think
You Can Dance." The new season launches Thursday, May 25th from 8-10pm on
FOX. "So You Think You Can Dance" is traveling the country,
beginning March 2nd in New York, on the hunt for the next best undiscovered
dancing talent the U.S. has to offer. The dancers will be pitted against each other in a
grueling 12-week competition to become America's No. 1 dancer. This year, there
will be one difference from last summer's hit show -- a new host. Latina host,
Lauren Sanchez
is pregnant and is expected to give birth during the run of production,
therefore, Cat Deeley, one of the leading television hosts in the UK, has been
named to host the second season. Deeley has won many awards for her work on "CD:
UK Live," and has worked for MTV UK, BBC and ITV networks. The first
season of "Dance" finished Summer 2005 ranked as the No. 1 program in its time
period among Adults 18-49, Total Viewers, Adults 18-34 and Teens. Season one
winner Nick Lazzarini and runner-up Melody Lacayanga are currently part of Mark
Meismer's professional dance company, Evolution, which is the first of its kind
on the West Coast.
