The goodies stay in the jar: No one wants to dance on Ciara-mentored 'American Idol' dance night

Sunday on American Idol Season 22, the top seven sang twice — doing songs by Adele, and "Songs That Make You Want to Dance" — and both themes were tricky. Adele is incredibly tough to pull off (I usually recommend that contestants avoid her catalog, as well as Whitney's, Mariah's, and Celine's), and obviously, this was a very specific theme. The dance theme was much more open-ended, but the top seven just did not want to dance. Surely there has not been a more choreography-phobic, left-footed cast in the history of this show.

So, any viewers expecting some Donna Summer disco or fun, song-of-summer pop bops were in for some major disappointment. Poor guest mentor Ciara's advice was all for naught, as she repeatedly gave the top seven tips on how to work the stage and most of them blithely ignored her.
