Born in Wallasey on the Wirral, Merseyside, to dockworker George Percival Lythgoe and Gertrude Emily Lythgoe, he became interested in dance at the age of 10. He began tap dancing, and went on to study at the Hylton-Bromley School of Dance and Drama and the Perry Cowell School of Dance, both in Wallasey, Merseyside where he studied classical ballet, modern jazz, ballroom, character, classical Greek and National dance from various countries. Lythgoe's first professional job was in the Corps de Ballet for the National tour of "The Merry Widow." He trained in London under Joanne Steuer and Molly Molloy. Beginning in 1969, Lythgoe performed with the BBC's "Young Generation" dance troupe. He became their choreographer in 1971 and has since choreographed over 500 television shows.
"We're casting a show here where we want unique people to take back to Hollywood,"
"This program or programs like it are great platforms for a career, but they don't guarantee any career. Their music, at the end of the day, and where they take their music and the quality of their songs is going to do that."
"best decision."
"The success of William Hung was based on his honesty. He really thought he was good and could get better. We try to weed out the people who are just trying to be bad."
"This is more than a talent show. We're watching dreams come true. Of course, dreams can turn into nightmares, especially when they wind up on national television."
"I've never heard kids blame other kids to their faces on-stage. I've never heard people give the judges a mouthful and say 'I'm quitting the show.' Everybody has more attitude this season. I've never seen people as willing to (be harsh to) others as this crowd. Before, we've said to them 'You want to win. You want to get rid of other people' and they've said 'No, we all love each other.' Well, not this crowd... Thank God there weren't any sharp instruments."
"The three of them have wonderful chemistry."
"I take everything like that with a pinch of salt. I've been in the business too long. I truly don't know. I know Prince had a party last night (after the Golden Globes) and I believe Paula might have been there."
Judge and executive producer of “So You Think You Can Dance” Nigel Lythgoe stops by to talk about the upcoming 16th season of the show.
