Nigel Lythgoe just phoned us and said the FOX Standards and Practices Department says -- of the photo of the "So You Think You Can Dance" contestant -- "It is a crease in the young lady's panties."

We've looked ... carefully ... and we don't see any panties. But we're not infallible. We're not going to unblur the photo, so if you really want to judge for yourself go to our friends at Dlisted.com. And then come back and vote.
