So You Think You Can Dance judge, Adam Shankman dropped a large bomb at the end of last night’s results show.  Shankman, who is producing this year’s Academy Awards, announced that he’s giving two lucky finalists the opportunity of a lifetime…to dance on the Oscar telecast.

The winner and runner of SYTYCD will be part of the production at the Academy Awards, and there wasn’t one of the top six finalists who wasn’t already dreaming big…and grateful to Shankman.  They know that’s the first big gig Shankman had in the business and they realize how golden this opportunity is. And Shankman? - well he’s just as pleased to be able to offer the gig up.

Click onto video for Adam Shankman’s thoughts on the upcoming Academy Awards and his ability to create two jobs for the SYTYCD winner and runner up - as well as reactions from the top six finalists of the competition show.

So You Think You Can Dance begins finals next Tuesday and the winner is chosen Wednesday.  Both shows air 8:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. ET/PT on Fox.
