What a ride. 🎤✨ Dancing for Big Buddy 2026 is officially a wrap. And because of YOU, the Big Buddy Program just had one of its biggest nights yet. The dancers shined, the crowd showed up, and this community proved (again) that Baton Rouge shows out for kids. 🙌

But here's the thing about the Big Buddy family: we don't stop. 👀

Next up? 🦞 Crawfish King Cook-Off — this Friday, May 1st, Downtown Baton Rouge. 50+ teams. And the best crawfish in the city all fighting for the crown.

The party's not over. It's just changing its shoes!

Saturday night at the PMAC was absolutely electric, and Baton Rouge showed UP!
To every dancer, every donor, every fan in those seats — thank you.

🚨 LAST LEADERBOARD UPDATE BEFORE THE SHOW! 🚨
Craig bolted ahead by 60 votes overnight — it seems he is DETERMINED to win this thing. 👑💨 But don't count out Dr. Sunshine just yet. She's made leaps before. Could she have one more in her?

⚡ True Webb is holding strong in 3rd — but is she done climbing? Second place is right there. And hey... so is first.

Meanwhile, don't sleep on the rest of the board:
🔥 Regina is hot on Cassie and LaMont's heels
📈 Travis shot from 10th to 8th overnight — that's 61 votes. In one night. But Renita is close behind him, widening her lead over Dan!

Is this leaderboard settling down... or is one final shakeup coming? 👀

The ONLY way to find out is to be in the room when winners are announced LIVE on stage tomorrow night. 🎤🏆
