Here, however, is a public photo of Dayton Tavares sitting on the front row with his sister.

Here's a video of Dayton (with his sister also) dancing with singer Johnny Ruffo on the Australia's got talent grand final.

Note: The quality of the video isn't that great it would look awesome in HD i'm sure it will come out soon enough but this is the best that can be found considering it was on last night.

Hi All,
Long time no post!

Dayton really looks like a "guy," not a kid. Good dancing and performance, but the sexist wardrobe -- certainly not unique to this production -- seriously bothers me. The boys are all buttoned up, looking like chefs, while the girls parade around in underwear. The lack of this was one of the great things about BETM.
