I totally support the zieglers and nia for not wanting to be part of this

[@ellaa_east]

@@samday2534it’s bc they all didn’t want to relive that experience of dance Mk s

[@POPGIRLS1UT]

Nia had finals and couldn’t make it, the Zieglers only ones that declined

[@gwenmloveskpopandmore]

Neither of them wanted to do it

[@ellaa_east]

@@POPGIRLS1UT ok sry

[@PopCultureKing2009]

They are fine without them

[@BradyRanger]

Kinda laughing cuz I feel like they all turned out EXACTLY how we would have expected. Like Chloe getting a degree in creatie writing and Kendall being a college dancer is SO on brand.

[@tamiahardy1694]

They cut out the fact that Chloe has her own dance competition now too

[@charlieverto-ey2bp]

I kinda of feel they didn't show all. Hopefully it will be seen because Chloe IMO was treated terribly. She's made movies written books and is not founder of a dancer competition says columns of the type of person she is and Abby has nothing to do with it. Win win.. Bravo To all 4 women for making dance better than they had it.

[@SuperbStar1955]

Jojo just had to find another reason to wear that fit and promote her video. It worked because the last 2 minutes was abt her video!!😭💀

[@gia9815]

Kilani and Jojo were not OG's and the trauma for the OG's including the Zieglers and Nia was a lot. These young girls were manipulated and pit against each other by someone they trusted. Kilani and Jojo knew what they were coming into and wanted a peice of it, the others were just doing what they love and it turned into a show. Jojo has no right to say anything negative about Nia or Zieglers not being a part of it cause it isn't her truth to talk about. I know when they got together for the reunion filming maddy, Mackenzie and Nia were with Paige, Chloe, Brooke and Kendall seperately and they have respect for them where Kilani and Jojo don't. They wouldn't have been on the show if it were not for them so they need to show respect to them.

[@Claireannette77]

Kalani, Jojo, and even Kendall won’t fully understand the way those girls feel/felt. Poor Chloe and Nia💕 They had their own unique experience. Brooke and Paige had theirs. Maddie and Mackenzie had theirs. I don’t understand how you can know a child from birth, 2, and 3 years old… and then treat them like that!?!?!?!

[@Livmead-price]

I get that kalani and jojo won’t be able to understand when those girls when through but I disagree that Kendall won’t because even tho she wasn’t their when she was 2-3 I remember one of the og girls saying that they never really had a close relationship with Abby (apart from maddie and brooke) until the show started. Kendall missed one season and she joined when Abby started going crazy in season 2 and actually was their for the longest out of all of the girls at the reunion. So she experienced all the same trauma that the other girls experienced.

[@heatherwilson8616]

​@user-zp6ge3fp9r agreed, season 1 abby wasn't even that bad, season 2 was when she went cray cray

Jojo wearing that shirt on GOOD MORNING AMERICA is crazy.

[@happyblackwoman6154]

People shouldn't be surprised when the girls say they have trauma. Most of them literally looked scared when they didn't get first place at a competition, even if they got second!

[@risingmoon56]

Yeah, whenever one of them got anything but first you could see the anxiety on their faces cause they knew what was coming for not winning.

[@korribier-lo3nm]

I love this so much

Can we watch it live with the lifetime app or do we need live tv?

the girls who were there for the least amount of time had the most to say.. we care mainly about the OGs

[@Dance-lj5rp]

The ogs have a different kind of pain. I mean they had no clue what they were getting into I mean they were just kids who were going to the studio they had been at since they were little. They had no idea it would turn into this….

[@esterdrass4964]

From what I recall, Kilani and Maddie (not here) were Abby's favorites. It seems she wasn't too fond of Kendall and especially Chloe. Jojo came later like Kilani, into a group where their parents knew what they were in for as the show had already been on the air for a few seasons. But I wonder about the original girls who literally went to that school before Dance Mom's. Surely it was a normal dance school. Or was Abby always like that? Or did they even have Abby as their dance instructor before?

[@iamQuiandra]

I can’t watch it without Nia, I’m sorry 🫠

same!

She ain't that special

It's a shame that the other 3 girls aren't there for this.. I completely get why they wouldn't want to reminisce over that time considering the trauma they endured so it's completely understandable and I do not blame them at all. I just wish they could have been together with the girls because they look like they've been having the absolute best time just being there for each other, hanging out, partying and getting matching tattoos lol. Would have been nice if those girls could have been a part of it.

She started on AUDC then dance moms and is there the same reason kendall and kalani are. 2. she brings more viewers than all of the girls combined wether its haters or fans. 3. she didn’t even do anything wrong in this interview she was quite and listening and y’all still find a way to be annoyed of her which just shows that she is easily the most famous and y’all cant stand it she didnt bring up her song or herself the interviewer did so she answered. idc for jojo either but EVERY comment section about the reunion is about jojo and that says a lot wether they haters or not. yall just helping her atp 😅
