MICHAEL JACKSON TRIBUTE WILL NOT TAKE PLACE ON SYTYCD

During the So You Think You Can Dance elimination show on Thursday night, judge Nigel Lythgoe said, "There has been a lot of talk about the possibility of a Michael Jackson tribute, and we thought that we would have a tribute. Mia Michaels, Wade Robson and several of the choreographers had agreed to participate. We thought that it would cover all genres."

But Lythgoe said that after SYTYCD approached Sony for permission, they received work back that they were not giving clearance for the tribute.

Lythgoe and others associated with the show referenced Michael Jackson's significant contribution to music and dance and said that they each will honor him in their own way -- but that this would, unfortunately, not be with a Michael Jackson Tribute Show.
