Dance Moms

No she wasn’t. She was 14/15 when it was filmed.

The person to blame here is Sia, at least Maddie had matured enough to see it wasn’t appropriate.

I’m autistic myself and don’t really appreciate being called “profoundly disabled” either. But I agree that the film took the piss.
Sorry I am confusing her age when it came out and what age she was when it was filmed. Still at 15 you should know that playing a disabled character in the way she did was wrong?!
Lol I’m autistic too but she was playing a profoundly disabled autistic girl in the film - as you know autism is a spectrum. Not everyone with autism is profoundly disabled ofc - never said that
 
Maddie was only 14 when she filmed Music. I don’t think it’s fair to blame her, especially given the fact that Sia essentially groomed her since Chandelier. If any of the Zieglers are to blame it’s Melissa for letting another adult take advantage of her daughter.
Oh yeh Melissa is an evil one
 
Where did the groomer comment come from, is there a news article or did Madrid become her mother and just move onto the next victim she found who she can use all there resources and contacts and then drop in the dust.
like mother like daughter, Melissa is a user and the way the girls turned on Abby when she got sent to jail shows they never really cared it was for show
 
I’m rewatching Dance Moms for the millionth time and I’m nearing the end of series 3. I don’t think I’ve noticed before just how many times Kelly and her girls “leave the team/studio”. Like it’s every other episode at this point it seems! Brooke and Paige clearly have a lot of trauma around Dance Moms and part of that has to come down to the constant coming and going for multiple years.

Have you seen Brooke is now engaged!!!
 
Yes! Can’t believe the girls are now getting to the age where these things will happen!

That’s where I’m doing my rewatch too. The adverts are annoying me though - especially the “the bank job?” one that pops up every time!

Longest adverts ever!!!
I’ve been watching an episode then listening to the corresponding back to the barre episode to hear Christi and Kelly’s side of what happened. It’s so crazy watching it now at 25 compared to my first watch when I was about 13!

Ooh I never thought to do that. I’ve not listened to any of their podcasts bar bits that come up on Mackzboss’s YouTube channel.
 
I'm rewatching too! I'm on series 3 and honestly I was surprised how much I actually agreed and sided with Abby in the first 2 series. I feel like series 3 is when it gets really unhinged and nasty though. It's not as enjoyable as the first two imo.
Yes you went from thinking, some of these mums are delusional (holly) and Abby is fair in her comments she is hard but it works to what the hell this is getting to be too much. It’s all the producers though, they asked them to ramp it up and Abby was pushed too hard. I felt for Chloe but I didn’t agree with holly or Kelly, their girls weren’t as good and Brooke was checked out.

Yeh I heard that the pyramid wasn’t even a thing at the ALDC and the producers made her do that for the show
 
I too am new to this, can anybody explain who abbey lane is? Was she a dancer, a choreographer? Why does she run a dance studio?
