So You Think You Can Dance alum Joshua Allen has died at age 36. TMZ broke the news on Wednesday, October 1, with one of Allen's family members asking for "privacy and prayers" as they grieve. A cause of death has yet to be revealed. Emmanuel Hurd, a friend of the late dancer, remembered him as "a very honest, real person" while speaking with TMZ. "He didn't always do things the way that everybody thought he should, but that's why he was a winner," Hurd told the publication. Allen rose to fame after winning SYTYCD season 4 in 2008.
