I pee'd a little when they said that

+willy head Did it come out of your forehead?

Colic Shark ;)

Nope since she was 3

I've been in dance since i was 5, I dont like it as much as i used to -.-

+Deanna Singleton I had to stop watching because it gave me anxiety!

When the last guy said about one of the mums bludgeoning Abby to death I was like he's told the future - two of the mums have tried!

+Deanna Singleton This show disgusts me

YAAASSS

+Deanna Singleton I love4 dance moms

also that the hat wasn't properly sewn on lol

+Brittany yeah and people joke saying her finger is a big mc hahaha

+Addy Norman Kelly was the best. :D

The two of them together! After they left it became less funny. Although Jill has her moments.

+Sara Novak I dont even watch it anymore CX after they both left the show is just bleh

+Addy Norman or the one where Christie and Leslie had the big fight and the camera men had to break it up

Abbys actually not that bad off camera

Omg dead😂😂😂

for me its medusa from the rescuers i might be the only one who thinks that though

Lucifer?

***** You could say she was "spoiling people's best dreams" ;)

+@SummerDavis Me too!! I think the Irish are just more witty and fun to listen to than Buzzfeed! :)

+@SummerDavis The BuzzFeed crew are a bunch of clueless middle-class millennials who've honed being annoyingly pretentious to the level of art.

John Baker It's interesting you say that. First of all, I am technically a millennial but I am 30 so I feel a bit of a disconnect from the stereotypical millennial. But I just watched some Buzzfeed videos again after not watching for a while and I felt they were very pretentious. I got the feeling they are starting to get kind of full of themselves.

Same. The people are likable and intellectually capable.

+@SummerDavis same

I'm Irish ha

Magic Star Irish people watch 'Irish people watch'? edit: lets see if u reply after 1 year

That shit was lamed and it was most definitely staged

Any reality TV show I'm embarrassed about. They are all bloody awful

+Hannah Thenaev Why would a Canadian be embarrassed???

+Hannah Thenaev I dont think it was ever suppose to be a good thing. Its fake bullshit like jerry springer or the jersey shore only there to attract audiences with "shock value and drama". Being embarrassed would imply that it had the potential to hold any standards in the first place. That is nearly impossible for fake reality tv. Pathetic would have been a better choice.

No we're not...speak for yourself. Tf?

+Hannah Thenaev I can imagine... And than you have the Toddlers&Tiara's with the Honey BooBoo spin off... Not to mention the Kardashians and the Real Housewife's of.... I won't mentions the others because we have a similar Jersey Shore

They grow up to be dead-inside adults that hate themselves and the world. Then they become parents and turn into the moms in this show.

True. My parents had me in a place like that, but it was with martial arts. And I am pretty dead inside and have tons of anxiety. And I never speak up about anything important cause they screamed and publicly embarrassed us with all kinds of weird punishments when I was a kid.

It's not like this is against their will... They want to do this.

I agree it's wrong but you are really over thinking it. I had very similar dance training age 3-16 and I am completely fine. I've always been shy but I think dancing gave me an outlook despite the screaming and emotional 'abuse' if you call it that that I endured. It isn't right and there should be boundaries, but I really think if you watched the show properly u would see how normal the girls are. Many of them have grown up now and are not emotionally scarred.

Exactly! Maddie broke down after a performance at some award show because she fell out of a turn, granted she would be upset but the thing is that it *wasnt even noticable*

They probably wanted to make them keep watching the clips, so they showed them the tame stuff. I don't watch the show, but even I have heard about the whole stupid rivalry and what happened.

Oh god... Kathy the witch...

Katie Urzua I started dance when I was 1 and a half

Scarlett James that's incredible! You must be the new maddie ziegler

Yes, we get it. You are Maddie Ziegler in disguise. An amazing prodigy. XD

same!!

hey i stared breathing when i was 0 so...... yeah

TigerLily the dance scene in Ireland is exactly the same but with slightly less sexualisation of children.. The dance moms here are the same trashy drama queens

TigerLily same here in Ireland but it's more for Irish dancing than that

sorry but I can imagine a few things more terrifying than a washed up, child abusing bitch mouthing off. these fuckwits are all the same they're used to shouting down kids who just take it, the moment they meet someone who stands their ground they crumble.

+RabaalXer0 this comment made my day

I would never treat my pokemon this way

Abbey: "Old Chloe, I choose you"

Favorite line in the show ever 😂

😂😂😂😂

You ouht learn diction.

Why thanks 😂💚

You seem like a very nice American. They should invite you on the show to party with the Irish. ;-)

Puca Power I would love that!

As matter of fact so would I :-) Well Leather Jacket Guy creeps me out a little but apart from that looks like fun! Wonder when they're holding their next auditions.....

Puca Power If you find out let a girl know!

My friend can do all of that

+Thang Vuong Ha ha, he has great humor, ill give you that. :)

+Thang Vuong Black Leather Vampire XD

Everyone thinks he's so HaWt lol

+Thang Vuong I always call him "Cabbage Man" lol

+Joseph Collins Are you havin' that?

We have very, VERY questionable TV shows here too... You have to laugh at it :)

WayneAnime But Jersey Shore and Kardashians and 16 and Pregnant etc.

loads of people here love Dance Moms and I'm like- no.

Ayyee JK Fam

its lnot trashy

Xavier Rabon Being in dance classes for fun and trying to make a career out of dancing are two very different things. XD Honestly though, Abby is a lunatic and the girls aren't taught anything classical, which means they sometimes lack core dancing skills. Either way, their success HAS made them famous.

4 years later and they turned out pretty good :)

it's the same with music, if you foul a note or something goes wrong you don't stop the performance to try and fix it you just power through otherwise you ruin the whole thing.

So your mom was cool and the other moms were overbearing

@@resplndnt Yessahh she also never push me so she figured I didn't outwardly express that I wanted to stay so she didn't enroll me in dance classes anymore but I liked it and it was pretty fun. Moral of the story if you don't push your kids to do something it's much easier for them to love said activity.

sunflower girl I did dance classes for a bit because I had friends in them but I quit when I was in middle school because I lost interest. I also see the dance moms as teaching their kids to have inferiority complexes because Abby Lee Miller is encouraging them to not see anything they do as good enough and that their feelings don’t matter

@@resplndnt I've never understood that kind of mentality. To think that your best is never good enough and also being told that the other dancers around you not tears and fellow competitors but your enemy.

sunflower girl my parents aren’t great, but at least they understood my extracurricular’s were mind not theirs

I'm pretty sure he was referring to how strict and harsh the teacher is not their physical appearance

+Markis Tyler They look like that because they're young so they have fast metabolisms, and they dance for hours and hours every day. They're all lean muscle. They're all healthy. You couldn't dance like that if you weren't.

Stfu none of them are underweight !

they dance a lot so its natural for em to be skinny

+Katiá lol did you measure their BMI then? Or look at percentile growth charts?

officialmer I'm not sure where you got the idea I perceive children to be anything close to less than. Nowhere did I write anything like "just-a-kid." If the child enjoys dancing and are there by choice, good for them. (Personally I think it's absurd to have this battle-axe abusing and belittling them so strongly for non-ballet). But there's no way all or 'many' of these children are there by choice.

+AeroDoe There are so many interviews and personal KZfaq videos by the girls, and they've all said they want to be there. They want to be dancers, and they want to be the best

+Breanna May of course they want to be.  That's what their moms have told them since they were little kids "you WANT to do this don't you? you want to be a dancer and make mommy proud?" What child would say no to this? Kids will go to absurd lengths to earn their parent's affection. "If mommy is only happy with me when I dance, I will be the best dancer in the world!" Of course a child can be happy to dance, but this isn't about the dancing primarily. these mothers just want to be able to say "my child is better than yours. Therefore I am the better mom." I mean look at these girls. They're stressed out of their minds and under enormous pressure to be perfect, to the point where they will break out in tears because of some minor mistake that shouldn't be that big of a deal. And who would be surprised? They get verbally abused and belittled constantly. Dancing is their only form of self-validation. That kind of learning environment isn't healthy. Not for adults and certainly not for 12 year olds whose minds are still developing. What these girls are learning is that they're only worth as much as their performance. That love and affection is something they need to "earn". That they're a failure if they're not at their best 24/7. And that's not a lesson any person should be taught.  *That's* why this show is making me angry.

+AeroDoe Even in ballet, you can show them how to do it the right way without being mean.....except Abby probably couldn't actually show them.

Ugh. Unless you're a dancer u just don't get it. Yeah it's hard work but rewarding and I'm the happiest when dancing. You still get to have a childhood ! These girls get an amazing childhood , travelling for dance and being with your friends constantly while doing something u love is amazing ! Yeah Abby is a bitch but not all dance teachers are like that and lots of it is put on for the show.

I know. I feel sorry for the people who actually need them.

+Nadia Mohamed they are very funny at times!

me too, me too

+Ashlee jennings OMG I thought the exact same thing! Had to do a double take. His partner also reminds me of an Irish Andy Murray at times.

+Ashlee jennings OMG I thought the exact same thing! Had to do a double take. His partner also reminds me of an Irish Andy Murray at times.

OMG! YOU'RE RIGHT!!!

Likely because it’s more difficult to prosecute emotional/psychological abuse

Of course!LOOL

Thank you so very much you have done our country a great service

Gazorpazorp Field ???

I think it was how little the girls were wearing that made it seem like that. If they were wearing clothing appropriate for their age it might not have seemed as bad.

Hannah Aman Meh I don't see kids as sexual so I guess I don't really care how they're dressed. Sort of like seeing little kids running around the beach naked isn't sexual. I don't see how what clothing they wear matters.

It probably made them uncomfortable because they looked like they were about twelve. Being twelve and starting to fully develop into a woman and being broadcasted like that on television is not the same as a toddler running around naked. Trust me, I know. I'm a fifteen, almost sixteen, year old girl and if they were built like me (big hips, butt, and breasts) you would probably see mine and their point better.

Hannah Aman I guess we'll have to just disagree I just see kids playing dress up, or maybe wearing sports uniforms. Hey it takes all sorts to move the world.

Some of the dances they do on that show are disgusting.

+Laura Susan Johnson Along with Toddlers and Tiaras.

me too. i used to watch this because i love dance and i loved watching the immense talent these kids have. but it got to a point where it felt like i was aiding in child abuse by watching it. no more.

+Laura Susan Johnson Fionn is Curly??

Yeahhh

spring fresh ** Were you that bad? XD

toffee1234100 Their fame has proven that opinion a little wrong, honestly though...

How is it disgusting ? It's watching talented kids dance , if you're not a dancer u probably just don't understand it , the dance world is tough but it's amazing getting to perform with your friends and travel the world too. These kids have a great life.

So being treated like dirt and constantly surrounded by middle school drama is a great life?

Carolina West i don't like Abby but lots of it is put on for the show. any competitive sport instructors are tough and if they didn't wanna be there they could leave. the girls love what they do

That must be why they show so many of them crying. I don't care if that drama is fabricated or not, all it does is piss people off because of how ridiculous it all is. If people want to watch a show about little girls writhing around on the floor, that's their business. I just feel there's something very, very gross about it.

Carolina West calling their talent writhing on the floor is pretty rude, it's mostly dancers and people who appreciate their talent who watch the show. The dance/entertainment industry is tough so there's gunna be tears ...I agree they don't need so much drama and the teacher is rude but I dunno mb I'm just used to it so don't see a problem . Plus the kids can leave if they want , but a lot of joy comes from dancing and performing that people who aren't dancers just don't understand.

+Bry Anna Gotta bring back Seinfeld.

+Bry Anna i mostly watch sports only

Not everything. Just the ones for girls are.

+Bry Anna What the hell did Mexico ever do to you!?

Every country has there own disgusting ridiculous shows. It's t.v so half isn't real and they all get paid pretty well I'd imagine.

+gaby g he can't, its his trademark along with the hair!

Girl you know good and damn well bring it is the ratchet version of dance moms lol

Tony Collins which is why i want them to react to it 😂😂

Yep

OldSchool so?

Aurora Tepesh I think all the reality shows are fake and scripted.

Thank God. If that was really reality, 😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨

So, this dance studio is near my hometown, and I've talked to mothers who's kids dance in these competitions (though not necessarily with Abby Lee): - Yes, she is that mean. - Her dance school is actually bigger than just the girls on the show, but she ignores them a great deal in favor of those on the show, so a lot of parents switched schooled. - most of the trash-talking the mothers do is put on for TV - Some parents/dance schools won't even take their kids to the competitions because all of the cameras and stuff for the show stress them out to badly.

👍👍

She’s this mean. I competed against her studio many years ago. She told her one dancer not to talk because her voice was horrible. Abby would walk into the workshops, and people would run.
