Step Up [Task]

26 Jul, 2014 - 2:15 PM by Josy

Housemates are taking part in a dance style task today called 'Step Up'.. In this task, Housemates will become two different dance crews and must battle it out for their crew to win a Vegas themed party. HOW IT WORKS Housemates will be divided into two different dance crews, with Zoe becoming the dance coach. Housemates will then be given twelve different dance moves which they must try and recreate. It is up to Housemates to practice these dance moves in their crews, to try and perfect these moves, and finally to assemble their moves into some sort of routine for the battle. The dance moves will appear in video form which will have been pre-recorded by professional dancers. The videos will clearly teach Housemates how to do the various dance moves. During the rehearsal period, Zoe must spend equal amount of time with each crew helping them with their routines. After their rehearsal period, the two crews will assemble in their costumes and battle it out. The two performances will be posted online this afternoon for the public to vote on which of the crew’s performance is the best. The crew that gets the most votes will go to the party tonight and the losing crew will be their waiting staff serving them food and cocktails. You can vote for which team should win the task here The vote closes at 7pm tonight.

Today, housemates will be strutting their stuff and throwing some shapes in the ultimate dance battle. As a trained dancer, Zoe will become dance coach for a day. She'll help the Red crew (Winston, Pav, Helen, and Chris) and the Blue crew (Mark, Ash, Christopher, and Ashleigh) to perfect their moves, and then each crew will perform their routines for you, the voting public. Yup, the winner of today's task will be decided by a poll on this very website*. Whichever crew you think most deserves it will win a swanky party, while the others will become serving staff. So it's all to play for - remember to check back later to have your say on who really stepped up to the task. *channel 5 big brother website

Just watched the video on this! Ash Ashleigh Christopher and mark are quite clearly the best. That may just be me being biased though as I absolutely adore Ashleigh!!!! She is a good dancer
