All set to take on the stage was Beau Harmon, a 23-year-old dancer from Kennesaw, Georgia. Beau explained that when he was younger, it wasn't easy for him to be himself, seeing that he had to sign a contract in school stating that he wasn't gay. However, his life changed when he moved to New York, as dance gave him the outlet to be himself. For Beau, 'So You Think You Can Dance' was the perfect platform to show his queerness and his uniqueness. And he did just that, seeing that the judges and fans loved his performance!

"This dude should be on Broadway, well done. #SYTYCD" tweeted a fan. "That was an enthusiastic Broadway theatre dance performance. Is he gonna do well in other styles though... probably not.. we'll see though. Good for Beau for gettin out there. #SYTYCD #SoYouThinkYouCanDance" said a fan. "Love Beau he’s so precious! Good job! #SYTYCD" added another. "Yaaaaas Beau! Yaaas to romper and heels! Yaaaas to living your best dancing life! #SYTYCD" said a fan.
