Tonight was funKtion callbacks so most of my night was taken over by that. We took back twelve guys so it was a pretty good group to work with. Steve taught his "Pop" routine which is insanely fast but also incredibly fun. The guys were really feeling it and after the first time they did it with the music, people were clapping and cheering and stuff. The audition part was slightly different this time around and everyone got to watch the different groups go up to do the routine. This pretty much gave it a performance atmosphere and all the guys started yelling and cheering and screaming so loud that at times the auditioners couldn't hear the music. The energy in the room was amazing though. After each group went up, everyone gave them hugs and high fives and congratulated them. At the very end, when we were taking comments, people said that they felt the love in the room and that this was the funnest audition and they didn't feel any negative competition from the other people. All in all, the audition was a textbook example of how funKtion would like every audition to go.



We went through deliberations at Staples Center but after a few hours, we couldn't fully decide who to take so we decided to call it a night and decide tomorrow. I went to chill a little bit at Helen and Julia's and watched Sharon fall asleep every five minutes trying to study.
