I don't know why people hate on Lacey so much, but she is a great dancer! Even if she didn't win So You Think You Can Dance she got fourth place out of the thousands who auditioned! Seemingly people like and dislike her because she is related to Benji(go Benji!) but seriously, she is a fabulous dancer. She is a fantastic partnerer, her solos may not be the best, but still, they bring something new and exciting to the dance floor, instead of the usual flips and spins and cartwheels. So, Lacey Schwimmer is a force to be reckoned with, and she is an amazing dancer!
I have had many different views when it comes to Lacey. I started out really liking her; completely separate of Benji. I thought that she was a very talented dancer, at many different styles. She is a little cocky in some regards. The fact that she was constantly saying how many more titles she had then her brother. It was annoying. After she started dancing more, I really saw how talented she was. However, I went through my moments of not liking her as much. She had a little bit of a downfall following the separation with Kameron, moving on to having a different partner each week.
Then there was her terrible first solo. While I understand that having a specialty of Latin, makes performing a solo difficult, this solo was beyond that. This solo was barely Latin in my opinion. She did a lot of contemporary moves, with a few Latin swing moves thrown in. Then, the next week, I really started to like her a whole lot more. And the next solo that she did was so much better than any others. It was a whole lot more then the first. And it was a whole lot better that time.
So, basically, I went from liking her, to not liking her that much, to liking her again.
But I personally don't think she should win, I think there are more consistent dancers on the show that should.
