Dansefeber is a Norwegian television reality program and dance competition airing on the TVNorge network. The show is a version of the US original version So You Think You Can Dance. Season two premiered with Merete Lingjærde, Geir Bie and Vibeke Sørlie as permanent judges and Henriette Lien returning to host. Contemporary dancer Hanna Mjåvatn was crowned Norway's Favourite Dancer and the top prize of 500,000 norwegian kroner, as the first female dancer to win the competition in every version of the show. Runner-up was hip-hop dancer Eric Nærbø, with jazz dancer Michelle Purvis finishing 3rd, and Latin ballroom dancer Bjørn Holthe finishing 4th.
Audition Cities Open auditions for this season were held in the following cities: Oslo Bergen Trondheim
Format The format is the same as So You Think You Can Dance (US) season 2-present; the dancer could: Be sent straight home, because the judges did not think the dancer was good enough Be sent straight to the "Fever Days", same as Las Vegas Week in the US version Be sent to the choreography round, where the dancer will be asked to learn a choreography later hi in the day, and based on that, the judges decides who will go through to the "Fever Days"
The Fever Days The Fever Days were held in Oslo. The "Fever Days" is the same as Las Vegas week in the US version, where the dancers will be asked to learn different styles of dance in a workshop.
