Here is part of the REAL Chris Trondsen's preview about ABDC's Hip Hop Nation and Last Chance Challenge. Most of it will be included tomorrow, since it was difficult to write about tonight's show without including some spoilers. Be sure to come back tomorrow and read the rest, since it will include many things you wan't see on the show:
One thing you won't see when watching this week's episode is that after announced safe and automatically in the finale, the crew that got the most votes didn't sit down and relax and celebrate like you might think they would. No, they were in the back where their crew flag is and practicing and training hard and going over the choreography getting ready for the Last Chance Challenge. They were like a machine, no smiles, and you almost wouldn't know that they had just received most of America's votes. They were going over it to make sure it was perfect.
Click here for two more things about tonight's show that you won't see on TV. Thanks Chris!

Preview from the Pressbox - Cris Turnson on ABDC5's Hip Hop Nation/Last Chance Challenge
Hi guys, this was the best week ever. I know I keep saying that but I mean it this week. The press didn't get to do any backstage interviews before the show this week because they were busy fireproofing the stage. If you think you've seen fire on ABDC before, wait until you see what they have planned this week.
The press also had trouble getting through because of the protests from Canadian separatist people, Hawaii for the people protesters, and the people who heard that Americas Best Dance Crew is going to ban Asians in the future. It's not true, I don't think.
Things to watch for:
- Omarion and JC argue over whether the girls in Hype or Blueprint is hotter and if that should matter because they need some hot girls in the Finale
- Poreotix does tutting
- The hot girls who sit behind Mario start fighting just before the elimination because 3 of them are wearing the same dress
- Legendary 7 gets an unexpected wildcard and competes in the Last Chance Challenge
Video: Hok (Quest) and Phillip Chbeeb - 0 Views
Quest's Hok and Marvelous Motion's Phillip Chbeeb (both veterans of So You Think You Can Dance) collaborate on a short performance called 0 Views, from Pacman's Youtube Channel. Thanks for the tip, Roy!

Video: Crews talk about the strain of this week's challenges and the joys of fan support
MTV Remote Control posted a video showing the ABDC Final 3 crews talking backstage, interspersed with a few dance moves (including a snippet of Poreotix last chance challenge practice). They all seem quiet, introspective, and tired as they talk about the difficulty of learning new steps and preparing two dances and how much they appreciate the support from their fans.
