Alan Bersten Off of ‘So You Think You Can Dance’

Also: The LRT vote faces a likely delay.

It’s over for Alan Bersten. The Minnetonka resident’s run on So You Think You Can Dance ended Tuesday when judges eliminated him following a solo and jazz routine with Malece Miller.

The judges praised Bersten’s solo but said he and Miller lacked chemistry and style together. Not only was Bersten sent home; Miller was sent home as well.

On the upside, judge Nigel Lythgoe said he’d recommend them for spots on the "Top 10 Tour" as alternates or swing dancers.
