Nigel Lythgoe is also NOT a fan of Kara's No Boundaries:I didnt like the final song that both guys had to sing. In truth their first songs were their best Mad World and Aint No Sunshine. and There are going to be some great guests tonight and I think its a close competition. The only downside is hearing the winners song again. As a side note, he says next year, SYTYCD will be moving to the fall permanently

Place your bets on which one will give a shout-out to Obama.

Ouch.
I'm thinking if the powers that be really wanted Kara to stick around they wouldn't be going out of their way to dis the song she coughed up.
