In that scene you can see how hurt Nia, JoJo and Kalani look from being rejected by Abby. If they are faking it these kids should get an Oscar. Was it worth the screaming match? Dunno, but Kira was pregnant at that time and very hormonal, and Abby outright said disrespectful things about her personal life in front of her daughter. You cannot blame that on the producers.

How have these moms and dance instructors got the platforms they have when they were racist and homophobic? And why was it deemed as okay at the time just for drama? Jojo and Chloe have both come out now, i hope all that were involved in the homophobia take a time to reflect, why did kaya get so much hate for it. Chloe and jojo were liked so they have support whereas Kaya wasn’t so it was okay to make homophobic remarks to them just because they weren’t like, It’s never okay it doesn’t matter who the person is whether you like them or not. It’s insulting to Chloe and jojo just as much by making them remarks to Kaya because they are part of the same community. Some of the things that went on on this show was just awful.

it’s so sad to me how kaya & nicaya were treated. nobody deserves that.

Thank you for doing a deep dive on Dance Moms and exposing the truths about horribly the cast on the show was treated, as well as how many things were staged or taken completely out of context on the show.

I’m only a few seconds in but the intro made me want to say this. My immediate thought is how in the early seasons the moms were told they/their kids couldn’t leave the studio until the argued about something, which is why a lot of the fights make zero sense. I remember growing up watching the show and my family (my sister and I were dancers, mom was hence a dance mom) questioning why the hell they were fighting over small things. It’s because they were there at 11 o’clock and their kids had school the next morning but the production needed a fight, so one of the moms would just pick something random and they’d fight so they could leave. When the show started child labor laws didn’t exist for reality TV, so they got away with a lot of stuff. It’s also why competitions were “faked” in later seasons, laws were updated to apply to reality tv so comps had to be short enough for the working time they had. To clarify I put “faked” in quotations because I don’t think all of the competitions were truly fake or rigged (I think some definitely were tho) I think a good percentage were just created/had altered schedule because of how long the kids could work.

Saw in an interview with Abby awhile back that the reason she would take her shirt off is because legally, they're not supposed to film a person in their underwear. So, yeah, the moms cab get a good laugh about it, but it's just another example of the producers' underhandedness and complete disregard for doing anything legal.

I think I as I got older and knew more about reality tv. I realizes they always make things seem something else. And took so many things out of context and made them seem crazy and brats.

I don’t get why Kelly was so mad, all the moms were “friends” in one way or another. It seems ridiculous that she was so upset over a jewelry line collab. Chloe & Maddie are good friends, and they probably wanted to do the line together. The moms weren’t going to take that away from them just because Kelly and her two kids weren’t picked. 🤷‍♀️ and in my eyes, Christi put way more effort into her friendship with Kelly than Kelly put into hers with Christi. They are my favorite mom duo & always will be, but some things were seriously twisted about their friendship.

Broadway agents aren’t going to like everyone, they’re going to choose whoever catches their eye and whoever they feel would succeed the most, so they picked Maddie, but the other moms were all upset and triggered over that. And don’t even get me started on Christi’s reaction to the interviewers coming in to interview Maddie. They came to interview Maddie and Christi was all in their face like, “why just Maddie, when are you going to interview other girls, why is it always Maddie?” It’s a common thing with all the moms.

I actually think it would’ve been more impactful if the show stuck to the truth a little more, Especially when Abby says horrible stuff, those are her words coming out of her mouth so she shouldn’t be protected. But somethings I get why’d they’d edit things for the show, like Kira throwing the bottle at a producer, but the other stuff, they should keep the real reaction but have what caused the reaction there, it would also make it more watchable, because overreacting to Solo’s and who’s sitting where did get boring. However I don’t feel sorry for them, they chose to be on the show, they know what it’s about, and they know when the cameras are there you are being filmed and it’ll end up in the show, so perhaps they should’ve learned to control their emotions when they’re trying to get a reaction out of you

I feel like saying you don't feel sorry for them because they knew what they were getting into completely erases all the underhanded stuff the producers did. The show that they signed up was supposed to be a documentary about competition dancers. The producers also got Abby to sign a contract while she was busy and in the middle of a competition saying they couldn't show the dances unless she did. Also, they forced them to say and do things in season 1 and threatened to not pay them or sue them for breach of contract (which weren't actuallu legal, btw) if they didn't cause drama or wanted to leave. No, they very much did not know what they were signing up for.

I knew not to meet any of them or give them my location, and I knew about sexual predators, but what if I hadn't? What if I became really smitten with someone online? Would I have acted any differently than Carly? Feelings are very intense at that age and cloud your judgment. I remember feeling completely despondent whenever I was spurned by any crushes at school. The mother was also too trusting and I'm sure she regrets it. But she's not the first parent to be deceived by someone trying to seem well intentioned. Think about all the children who were molested by a family member, neighbor, priest, coach, or teacher when left in their care.

Cathy, Abby, and Jess seemed to be the only ones who realized they were there to make an entertaining TV show. The other moms let themselves and their girls take it way too seriously. Viv and Jojo had the best attitude of all the girls because their moms explained to them what was really going on, and they didn't internalize the nonsense. Melissa should have left the show, along with her kids, as soon as Chandelier hit big.

I think that Cathy and Jess (and Vivi and Jojo) did understand it as TV and not real life. I imagine both moms had explained that to their kids in advance, I agree. I don't think Abby was able to keep the show separated from reality, though. I think at first she was just being herself, then she did try to do what the producers asked and stir up more drama, but I think because she had been the girls' dance teacher for years already that she realized her sudden change in behavior and personality was legitimately scary to them. And I do think she felt bad, but she was also stuck. I think she caved under the pressure of the producers and the show in general and had some sort of nervous breakdown. Eventually I think she gave up and the "real" Abby didn't even exist anymore. She wasn't married and didn't have kids. Her dance studio and her dance kids were her WHOLE life, and she was very dedicated to them, and her self image and self esteem were tied into them. I think this show made her lose her sense of self to the point that she wasn't herself; there are little moments where she appears to try to "come back" and it just doesn't work. She should have weasled her way out of that contract. I feel like I could write a book on her psyche in the context of this show. At some point, she wasn't just being dramatic for the camera, she was really lashing out at the girls and the moms, and that wasn't okay. But I think it stemmed from the insane amount of stress that the show put her under too. Also, her mom died during the show's run, and her dog died during it as well. Idk I think all that plus realizing she's burned the bridges between her and all the students and moms (even though maybe in her mind she really didn't want to do that and couldn't help it) and losing touch with even herself would be enough to throw someone into a weird funk. Not to mention her financial/ legal thing. Idk, I know that had I been Abby I would not have been able to handle all that. No way. It also explains why the moms and girls stayed for a long time. They already knew her, and she had previously been a normal person and caring dance teacher. They likely did not notice when her acting tough for the camera started to meld in with her actually struggling either until it was too late to address calmly and they were already mad.

Jill should’ve left that with Abby not took it out on Brynn

NO NO AND NO cus they all knew that some thing like that would or could happen and as for patey she as always came off as the angry black lady cus she knew that would make drama and good tv

Black Patsy said so many terrible things on the show. The fact she is claiming “because I giggled at Kendall”, lady it’s on camera, you said she sucked numerous times, and posted on social media that she sucked too.

She actually said in an interview that she was asked to say that from the producers and said off camera she would never say that and thought Kendall is a very talented dancer and a sweet girl.

Kaya said in her own video that she had nothing against Kendall or her dancing, she just found it odd and demoralizing that the ALDC was set up to win and that their kids were set up to look bad so that the ALDC could look good. It’s common knowledge at this point that by Season 7 many competitions were either fake or rigged so it makes sense that Kaya would be upset.

God bless you all :) .

Does anyone know what reunion episode at 12:53?

I didn't know she talked about Kelly's Mom What an Evil being she is

Abby mom dropped her.

Does anyone know who Melissa was kissing?

It might have been her now husband Greg. At the time I think Melissa had either split or was seperaring from her husband Kurt and Greg (her now husband) was going through a divorce.

Hello how are you doing today over there?

I want to know what Kelly was actually mad about the week of the Silver Spoons dance!! how come that's not elaborated?

Hating everything about the dance is hating the dance

I think the producers need to be investigated. Seriously..

Kendall was never a brat about the solo. She had her hopes up and was even guaranteed for the solo according to mackzboss I hate that people hate this girl for the way she acts but they know they would’ve acted the same way or maybe even worse

Kendall is always crying and she’s such a baby and kalani and Kendall are bullies they bullied Camryn from s7 and I think Kendall is racist too

Y’all. Kids are bratty because they’re not mature yet. ofc Kendall is a child and she’s gonna cry because she doesn’t have the solo BECAUSE SHE’S A CHILD. Children cry over dumb stuff. Smh. Also have you met Jill?

What in hell were we all thinking?????

the producers were as bad as abby

Her kiss could of been on the cheek..

24*7 'round the clock gaslighting..... U🤐

oh come on they call each other b* and all sorts of things, it‘s not a good environment, don‘t come here expecting nice treatment for being gay and black, thats double standards

First like!!

the way they treated chloe when she obvs was not cleared to dance so her mom took her homw, who cares

For me it does not change the way that I view Dance moms or any of the cast members. I do know that every mother had significant trauma in her life that made her the way she is. Trauma makes a person how they are and that turns into subconscious trauma. Therefore she is the way that she is to others as a result of how others were to her. I will and I will never and never will blame Abby Lee for being the way she is. I know she means well and her heart is in the right place despite her toughness and her tough love. Sometimes you have to break a child spirit and bring them down So that's the only way to help them raise and learn to fly and soar.

Never! Breaking someone's spirit never helps. Giving criticisms and insulting is completely diff. And abby is horrible. She still is. Immature, horrible, biased and mediocre.
