Acclaimed choreographer Andrew Winghart paid the ultimate tribute to Justin Timberlake on the singer's 36th birthday in January. He released a dance short inspired by Justin's iconic 2002 hit "Cry Me a River," performed by 37 professional dancers; the featured male, George Lawrence II, along with a group of 36 females - a "forceful river of women" - combine to illustrate "his emotional journey echoing his indifference at having a broken heart."

On tonight's episode of "So You Think You Can Dance," the top 10 performed a group number, choreographed by Tyce Diorio, to "The Cool With The Stomp," in honor of Gene Kelly. Kelly's widow, Patricia, was in the audience to celebrate his birthday tomorrow, when he would have turned 100 years old.
Ultimately, four dancers were in danger of elimination -- Witney Carson, Audrey Case, George Lawrence Jr., and Chehon Wespy-Tschopp. With a little bit of time to kill, all four dancers were able to perform solo routines after they were put on the chopping block.
In the end, Witney and Chehon were saved by a divided judge's panel. Unfortunately, Audrey's performance this week, as a vampire alongside Twitch, wasn't strong enough to outweigh last week's errors, and she was cut. George also got the boot after a jazz performance that was technically sound but creatively lacking, according to Nigel.
