ABDC Season III Finale

I just got back from Hollywood were I spent my Thursday at the taping of MTV's America's Best Dance Crew Season III Finale. There were tons of celebrities there and all the crews from season III were back. The entire 5DTV and FreaktheVote.com family were there to document the event.

In the press tent backstage we were all shocked when Mario Lopez announced Quest Crew as this season's champions. Don't get me wrong, Quest Crew is an incredibly talented, creative, and great group of young men (a few who I know personally), but we've been working closely with Beat Freaks and have been rooting for them the entire season. No worries. We're still extremely proud of Beat Freaks. You've all inspired and represented for all the females out there. Sometimes things don't go the way you want, but this is just the beginning for all these crews. Congrats to Quest Crew!

Be on the look out because we're bringing Break Freaks to San Diego soon for an in-store signing, dance workshop, and party! 5&A Dime just posted a blog from yesterday's events. Be on the look out for our upcoming 5DTV video from the finale. Now, here is Jay (5&A Dime):

Last night was the final episode of ABDC with Quest Crew and Beat Freaks battling it out for the number one spot.

We had the 5Dtv crew there supporting the Beat Freaks

Beat Freaks fans waiting to get into the studio

It may be hard to believe but we actually plan out how were going to shoot our episodes

Working on a little skit for this episode

Melissa Reyes and TK

These guys are on another one of the dancing shows on tv and I guess homegirl is some kinda of Olympic gymnast or something.

In the press tent and yes it was this dark. Thanks for the adequate amount of light

Melissa is awkward...but in a good way.

They made the press wait behind the stage and told us to stand in a single file line like we were in grade school. Every time we stood out of line or tried to wander off we got scolded by the security...it was awesome.

For the final episode MTV set us up on the stage to conduct our interviews.

Try to guess who won?

I kept trying to stand out of everyones way but somehow managed to repeatedly get in everyones way.

Lydia Paek from SD's own "Box Cuttuhz"

ABDC's DJ Rashida

This is "Winson Seto" and he's the one responsible for getting us in every time, even when we have a few extra names on our list he still helps us out...for that we threw him a mini celebration.

In the interview she told us she has a boyfriend... I think "Fail!" is the new term the internet kids are using these days.

Here's a bunch of random dudes or whatever.

I think you guys won and America cheated. That's our opinion.

Thanks to the Beat Freaks for supporting 5&A Dime and thanks to Matt, Lee J and Younger for all you help along the way.
