Will They Cry Again? Dance Moms Reunite For 2024 Special
Dance Moms is back! The show that introduced the world to stars such as JoJo Siwa and Maddie Ziegler is having a reunion in 2024. What are they going to talk about? Well, there’s no shortage of drama and controversies surrounding the show. Let’s take a look back at over a decade’s worth of Dance Moms and see what they’ve all been doing prior to this reunion.
Reunion
The reunion is set to air on May 1, 2024 and it brings back many of the original members of the Dance Moms cast. Siwa, Kalani Hilliker, Brooke Hyland, Paige Hyland, Chloe Lukasiak, and Kendall Vertes will all be there.
So will their mothers: Jessalynn Siwa, Kira Hilliker, Kelly Hyland, Christi Lukasiak and Jill Vertes. They’re all in the trailer the Lifetime channel has released to promote its new show.
Dance Moms
Dance Moms was all about the dancers of the Abby Lee Dance Company, their mothers, and Abby Lee Miller herself. It was controversial because of how harsh Miller had been on her students.
The mothers were constantly yelling, the daughters were constantly being told they had to perform better, and all in all it was a perfect storm of car-crash reality TV. People couldn’t look away!
Pop-culture sensation
Lifetime put out a trailer for the reunion on March 6, declaring that it would be a “two-hour special event” which would see the moms and daughters looking back at the show “that became a worldwide pop-culture sensation.”
The trailer started off with the cast happily partying together and popping Champagne bottles. But fans of the previous series won’t be surprised to learn that events soon took a darker turn.
Ruined
The trailer showed footage of one particularly infamous moment in Dance Moms history. That right: we’re talking about the notorious coming-to-blows between Kelly Hyland and the now-disgraced dance teacher Miller.
“The fight happened, and we never danced again,” Kelly’s daughter Brooke said. “I feel like I ruined your life and your dance career,” Kelly said, as other people who were involved cried and left the set.
