So you think you can vomit? That's certainly one way to make a lasting impression. An understandably stoked 12-year-old So You Think You Can Dance contestant celebrated a successful audition by—you guessed it—excitedly puking on judge Paula Abdul.
Tahani Anderson floored the judges with her impeccable routine to the Beyoncé instaclassic "Countdown," quickly earning unanimous approval to move to the next round. When she went to give Abdul a hug, she froze briefly before, as we've said multiple times at this point, suddenly vomiting on her.
"I hugged Nigel [Lythgoe], then I hugged Paula," Anderson explained on Monday's broadcast. "She just squeezed me too tight and all the happiness came out on her jacket." As for the happiness on her jacket, Abdul said it marked a career first. "I've never had anyone just vomit on me like that," Abdul said.
But don't sweat it, Tahani. Vomiting, astutely summarized the "expulsion of the contents of the stomach" by experts at WebMD, has been known to be willed into action (whether on national TV or not) by "strong emotions" of any kind. Emotions are dope. If some occasional vomiting goes down, that probably just means you're hella in tune with the rest of the universe or something.
