Static Noyze (Cambridge, MA): Static Noyze has always felt like outcasts, never really feeling like they fit in with anyone but each other. Bored with what they call “stock hip hop” – routines and moves that they’ve seen before – this off-the-wall group of dancers promises to shake up the “ABDC” stage with their distinct style of dance.

After the horrible news that choreographer Shane Sparks had been arrested, the producers of America’s Best Dance Crew had no choice but to replace him as a judge on the show. At least until the outcome of his legal issues. I’m still hoping for the best for him.
So today, we finally got word of the replacement judge’s identity. Singer Omarion will join Lil’ Mama & JC Chasez as the third judge for season 5 of ABDC. He looks like he’ll be a good choice in the judges’ seat and I can’t wait for the new season.

I found some more great dancers’ photos from last night’s 2009 Really Awards Show.
These are, in my opinion, the best two all-female dance crews ever! I’m glad they were at the awards celebration because they certainly do represent a very special kind of female dancer. And from the looks of these pictures, they must have had a great time there too. They are:
