  1. Honestly, if Talia had been happy to go the traditional ballet career route, then she would have stayed at the Queensland Ballet and not done SYTYCD at all. Besides, I imagine the role she has got is the lead female, as that requires a strong ballet technique. She’s clearly exploring all her options – good on her!
