Fort Worth's Joshua Allen made it a North Texas trifecta Thursday night, winning the fourth season of Fox's So You Think You Can Dance over fellow hip-hop/popper Twitch Boss.
The 19-year-old will collect a $250,000 cash prize and also carry the arbitrary title of "America's Favorite Dancer." There's also a pending offer for a featured dance role in a future film directed by Adam Shankman (Hairspray).
"Never let anybody tell you you can't do anything . . . With God you can do anything," Allen said before the show's finalists hoisted him in victory.
He's the third North Texas resident to win a network reality competition this week.
Melissa Lawson of Arlington took NBC's Nashville Star crown on Monday; on the same night, Ally Davidson of Dallas won the women's division of the network's American Gladiators.
