“So You Think You Can Dance” choreographer Christopher Scott “dances through life” — and finds inspiration for his routines along the way.
The choreographer earned his third Emmy nomination this year for two of his routines on the longstanding Fox reality dance series, and explained in a recent interview with TheWrap that the inspiration for them often comes from real-life experiences, even if they’re a little unexpected.
