Now holding auditions in Los Angeles, Cat explains the process. The dancers get to dance for 1 min. before a decision is made, then each contestant is given either a "Yes," which was accompanied by a ticket to Vegas, a "No," which means to go home, or a "Stick Around," which means that they are to stay for extra choreography before the judges decide their fate. This year, the winning dancer will be awarded bigger than last. He/She will receive a one year contract for Celine Dion's Vegas show, a brand new car and $100K cash.

The final stop in this round of auditions: the famous Chicago Theater. As before, the dancers get to dance for 1 min. before a decision is made, then each contestant is given either a "Yes," which was accompanied by a ticket to Vegas, a "No," which means to go home, or a "Stick Around," which means that they are to stay for extra choreography before the judges decide their fate. This year, the winning dancer will be awarded bigger than last. He/She will receive a one year contract for Celine Dion's Vegas show, a brand new car and $100K cash.

At the Las Vegas callback auditions, 115 dancers compete. Every day the dancers learn new routines from different choreographers. After performing their routines they are scored by the panel of judges. The judges each have a scale of 0-3 points for each contestant.Contestants that score well are put through to the next round and the others are sent home. Those dancers that remain borderline after the results are asked to "dance for their life" - this means they have to perform a solo for the judges. After the solo, the judges make a decision to cut them or not.

After 43 contestants performed their solos for the judges, they stood in front of the judges one-by-one to find out if they made the top 20.The judges select 10 boys and 10 girls to make up the top 20 that will perform for audience votes.
