I'm surprised that Moron Melissa and Abby didn't have Maddie on the Red Carpet at the 50 Shades of Grey premiere! 1 Link to comment
taragel February 25, 2015 Share February 25, 2015 Eh, not really beyond her age. She's 12 and it's based on a YA book and set in high school (usually tweens are the ones who read YA because they're aspirational--real high schoolers are usually over it) even if all the actors are probably 30-something.

sofiah February 26, 2015 Share February 26, 2015 So apparently Kalani was suppose to compete at Nuvo under Club Dance. Looks like she was the only one from her studio there. She did really well - 1st in Teen and won Nuvo Breakout Artist. The fact that Kalani does so well in real dance competitions really does not reflect well on Abby - who can't seem to choreograph for the girl to win even in her fake invitationals. Jojo was there too with Underground Dance Factory - she placed 5th in Junior and also won Nuvo Breakout Artist. 2 Link to comment

Maybe Kira needs money and Kalani wants exposure. But is it worth it? 2 Link to comment
Alapaki February 26, 2015 Share February 26, 2015 I think that the show has evolved quite a bit from the way it started, and the way it was probably pitched to the Moms when they signed on. I do fault Holly for keeping Nia around once things took an obvious turn for the abusive. And I really fault her for being a lap-dog at the beginning of this season and shitting on Kelly for suing and Christy for leaving, only to whine a couple of weeks later about how none of the other Moms support her when she picks a fight with Abby. 2 Link to comment
NextIteration February 28, 2015 Share February 28, 2015 I think Holly is realizing the gravy train can only last for so long and is putting up a fight on camera so that she can have some credibility when she inevitably has to return to her job in education. She at least has to pretend that she doesn't condone child abuse I think you are spot on, from spoilers it sure looks like there's a good chance that Nia and Holly are done, time to go listen to AfterBuzz for the last couple weeks I guess. It's proven my impressions wrong before. Link to comment

tessa May 19, 2015 Share May 19, 2015 Or it's just another con. Create drama to get people interested in the show again or belittle production so when the show ends - due to low viewer turnout - she can again place the blame at someone else's feet. I think it's the latter but she does really need the show to continue at least one more year until she gets the new LA dance studio up, running and making a profit. If they cancelled the show now - she'd have a hard time doing that - as people move on rather quickly these days and she'd be forgotten. She isn't thinking about any of the kids' futures - she's thinking about her own longevity. 2 Link to comment

cali1981 June 4, 2015 Share June 4, 2015 (edited) Ava beat Maddie in the Junior division at National's on May 31st Good Lord! There are reports of hell experiencing freezing weather and NORAD reports that it's picked up flying porkers on its radar. Apparently Ava may have been representing Candy Apples DC.

Apparently Ava may have been representing Candy Apples DC. How will Abby and Collins try to explain this away? She was under her mom's studio not Candy Apples. Also, fwiw, i think Ava has grown a ton as a dancer and it shows. Her body is very awkward, I won't even try to get away from that, but she shows control and strength while Maddie shows tricks. While tricks are fun to watch, with the wrong judging panel, they can cause more harm than good. My guess is, Maddie relied on tricks and Ava had a good lyrical number. If you follow Ava away from the DM mess; she actually places very well throughout the country and is often in 1st place, almost always top 3. Ava is an example of dancer growth while Maddie just hasn't...the spotlight comes with consequences. Think Gabbi Douglas after she won the All-Around and bombed the individuals. Fame comes with a price tag; she's lost her focus and isn't growing as a dancer. Edited June 4, 2015 by Loves2Dance 1 Link to comment
cali1981 June 4, 2015 Share June 4, 2015 She was under her mom's studio not Candy Apples. Almost as good since Abby loathes Ava's mother Jeanette almost as much as she does Kathy. This is the description of the YouTube clip of Abby storming out of Nationals while the guy with the microphone on the stage is saying "you can't leave". It's not clear what she she is bitching and moaning about but replies "yes I can", picks herself up and does indeed leave. "If you didn't know what happened at nationals maddie,mackenzie, nia and ava had solos ava got 1st nia got 2nd in the teen division maddie got second in the junior division and mackenzie got 4th then the cadc group dance got first overall and the aldc of 2nd so abby got mad called the competition fake said she would never return again and walked out the aldc then won best studio but didn't accept the award." Abby calling any competition "fake" is wildly laughable. 3 Link to comment

Loves2Dance June 6, 2015 Share June 6, 2015 Thank you for that info! I thought Ava was older than that. It likely has to do with the way the birth dates were cut off for this particular competition: Maddie is September 30, 2002 Ava is April 10, 2002 So technically Ava is only a few months older. To compare, Nia is June 20, 2001 and Kalani is September 23, 2000. 1 Link to comment

NextIteration July 8, 2015 Share July 8, 2015 Kira is pregnant. Both Nia and Kalani come off as prepared for an S6 if there is one from their interviews on YouTube from the ALDC LA grand opening. Payton, taught a very long Hip Hop class as part of the grand opening. Seems to me that nobody is moving anywhere, but we shall see. Link to comment
tessa July 8, 2015 Share July 8, 2015 If Kira is indeed pregnant - that will give Abby one more thing to hold against her as far as being a bad mom - more drama - and let's see Melissa's reaction. She'll probably be all over Kira for getting pregnant by her boyfriend while disregarding she was shacking up with hers while he was going through a bad divorce. Link to comment
tessa July 8, 2015 Share July 8, 2015 Good for her! There were things I didn't like about Kira - but anyone who defends their daughter like she does and is looking out for the best interest of what their child wants to do in the future - not just the here and now - has my respect. Kalani reminds me a lot of Chloe - just really sweet kids.. I adore Nia too - she's never been anything but herself. 1 Link to comment
NextIteration July 9, 2015 Share July 9, 2015 I wonder if Abby will be hiring a bunch of former students to teach. Seems likely, Payton is actually a heavily awarded dancer so she's a good choice if you aren't using BA and BFAs, I had no idea that hip-hop was her forté though. She just graduated from high school and seems really excited to take class and spread her wings in LA, she also came off as a really sweet young lady that loves Abby a lot. 1 Link to comment
Bossca August 23, 2015 Share August 23, 2015 http://dancemechanics.com/meet-the-staff.shtmlAbby's staff (Including the studio manager, 2 dance teachers and a former student) have left ALDC and opened up their own studio. Most of Abby's staff has already left, so after these guys left, I don't think there are many left except for her and Gianna. It'll be interesting to see whether she tries to keep the Pittsburgh studio open or if she closes it to focus on LA. I've read there are hardly any kids enrolled at ALDC LA, one lady put a photo of her son dancing and he's the only one in the class so essentially it's a private. Hope this is the right thread for this, couldn't figure out where it fit. 4 Link to comment

RealityCowgirl August 24, 2015 Share August 24, 2015 Didn't see Nia. I noticed that, too. It seems to be a new account, so that could be a coincidence. But I doubt it. Hoping it means Holly finally got a grip and got her out of that toxic environment completely. I've not been watching, but have followed conversation here and other reports. She needs to move on, whether back home or in LA but away from ALDC and the show. Link to comment
tessa August 24, 2015 Share August 24, 2015 I don't blame Holly for getting what she can. The shirts are reasonable priced considering hat other "celebrities" are charging for theirs. I was going to compare it to the ALDC ones but they are out of stock due to the "booty camp" in LA and Pittsburgh - so they say. Actually - Kendall K had her own Meet and Greet on 8/8 - Fast forward past the little girl and you can see more of the meet and greet - it was just Kendall and there really doesn't appear to be that many people there considering. Dance Mechanics has a wide variety of classes. If you noticed the manager came to Abby's 4 yrs ago - probably when things got too much for Abby to handle with the show's success. I've posted before that many of the teachers at ALDC were fairly new. I don't think they will fair well against Dance Mechanics and that may be another reason for Abby's breakdown. To find out that your business manager and teachers are leaving to compete against you when you're trying to open a new studio against big odds in LA would be devastating. Looks like karma to me. 2 Link to comment
spanana September 3, 2015 Share September 3, 2015 Nia was def there. Unfortunately. Her mom has also opened an online store selling Nia merchandise. Gross. Pic: https://instagram.com/p/6vg0kSSxQA/?taken-by=dancemomofficialspoilers Screenshot from Nia's store: https://instagram.com/p/6xIti3yxar/ Nia's going to have a rough time from Abby with pics like this floating around: https://instagram.com/p/6lDFGpSxYG/?taken-by=dancemomofficialspoilers Holly is going to ride the gravy train until the last stop. I don't really have a problem with them selling t-shirts. While I know it's a stretch to consider any of the Dance Moms girls musical artists, most musical artists sell t-shirts and merchandise to fans at concerts. This is pretty much the same deal. Even low level artists do it as a means to make some money and I don't think it's a big deal as long as you aren't charging crazy prices. At least the shirts seem to be kind of advertising Nia as a pop star and Nia does have songs out for sale. Link to comment
