Two Filipinos have made it to the Grand Finals of US dance competition and reality show "So You Think You Can Dance Season 8" (SYTYCD 8) .

Noypis Marko Germar, 22, and Tadd Gadduang, 25, have been both saved from the final eliminations earlier and now join the Top 4 contestants who will be battling it out on stage next week for the SYTYCD 8 crown. Sasha Mallory and Melanie Moore complete the list of grand finalists (The two girls are the "beasts" in the competition. They will surely give Marko and Tadd a hard time.)

Whew! Congrats and good luck, guys! :D

Ooooops, Tadd just updated his Facebook status:


"FRIENDS!!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME???? WHAAAT?? WE MADE FINALE!! BECAUSE OF YOU AND THE NARRATION OF THE MAN UPSTAIRS WE'RE HERE!! THAAANNK YOOOUU FOR STAYING ON BOARD!! WE GOT ONE MORE WEEK!! LET'S GO!! HAHAHA!! SUPERHERO HUGS AND KISSES ALL AROUND!!!! =)"

"Thank you thank you thank you so much everyone for voting and always supporting! I hope you all enjoyed my solo. Win or lose, it doesn't even matter anymore. This whole experience is the ultimate and actual reward. I'm so thankful and feel very blessed for everything! happiness... :)"

Tadd Gadduang, a Filipino contestant of one of the most watched shows in the US "So You Think You Can Dance" (SYTYCD), is waving the Philippine flag not just through his amazing performances but through his T-shirts as well. For at least three (3) times on the show, Tadd have been seen wearing a shirt with the Philippine flag print or theme.

Wondering where Tadd buys his shirts? Well, I have no idea. Lol. You can try asking him through his Facebook and Twitter accounts I guess since he regularly updates them. :D



Update: Finally, Tadd answered where his shirts are from:



"Also, I've seen a lot of people asking where I get my Filipino shirts, and the answer is from my Family in San Francisco! They mail em to me and get em at some store in San Fran. I will definitely find out the name of the store and let you know! And I'm pretty sure you can find a lot more online! Yay! WALANG TAKOT!!" Tadd posted on Facebook.



By the way, Tadd and another Filipino SYTYCD finalist Marko Germar made it to the Top 6. Whew! Two more weeks and the grand winner will be proclaimed. Is it to going to be one of them? I hope but the girls are really competitive as well. Do you watch the show? :D

This week is going to be an exciting one for Noypis out there who are fans of the top-rated American reality TV show "So You Think You Can Dance" (SYTYCD) which is now on its 8th season. Why?

First and foremost, Marko Germar and Tadd Gadduang, the 2 Filipino contestants of the show will be performing again with their brand new partners. The two had successfully made it to the Top 10, taking 2 out of the 5 slots for male finalists.

Secondly, Filipina Melody Lacayanga will once again be dancing on the show as one of the finalists' "all-stars" partners. Melody was the first-runner of SYTYCD Season 1.

And lastly, Blush, the first Pan-Asian girl group which has Filipina Angeli Flores as one of its members, will be performing their single "Undivided" on the show during the results night on Thursday!

Iba talaga ang Noypi!
