When the girls were holding Brynn and moving her like she was throwing up I felt the tears

[@thestuff1076]

This dance was a break through for all of the girls. Brynn's emotions were so pure and they came from the heart. Kalani was stunning, her emotions were great, same with Kendall. Nia and Camren did great also. I'm so proud of all of them. I was legit bawling when I watched this dance. Truely a brilliant piece. Props to Abby and Gia.

This dance just slayed my entire life. I have seen many comments saying that Kendall doesn't show emotion and I kind of agree with that. But in this dance she showed so much emotion and power. wow. all the girls were flawless and abby's choreography was absolutely beautiful. Definitely a national title worthy group dance.

[@luvmeganandliz101]

Debolina Kundu Kendall does need to work on her emotion, but I think she did amazingly well here. They don't zoom in on her enough to tell a lot, but there's definitely parts she shined in. Right at the beginning and end you can really see her face and it's great.

[@crIms0ngen]

She definitely did well in the crazy role. She has her mom as a good example to model from, though. :) It helps. lol

[@Jolie-rs7tk]

I agree, certain parts were ok and i could see that she was showing some emotion....but she always seems to look like shes out of breath and tired

Thank you!

[@rachelpeat6452]

Has anyone noticed that nearly all the girls have some light colours on them: nia has the headband, Brynn has the ribbon, Camryn has the garter on her leg and Kendal has the back of her dress. The only one who doesn’t is kalani. Is it deliberate?

[@carolinepowell3297]

Hmm you're right

[@emilyl3197]

The 4 died first, so their suffering ends sooner, Kalani was the last to die, the one who suffered the most

[@austina1240]

Emiliana Calista Lie its because kalani is addicted to drugs and drugs overcome your body

[@dominikg8500]

Austin A she said that she was suffering the most nothing about drugs consuming your body

[@toxiczarina7805]

I think is the fact that most ppl can hide addiction pretty well then others you can tell have problems

[@IlyYouTubers1]

All of the girls' acting was incredible. They have all improved so much, but Kalani really stood out. At the very end when she was the only one left, her facial expressions were amazing and actually made me cry! So proud of all of the girls.

concept is such a touchy subject but they potrayed it beautifully. kendall has improved so much, brynn and kalani were absolutely gorgeous in this, and their emotions were on point. what a gorgeous way to end the season, really enjoyed this dance.

[@thesophieshow171]

lolliecandy what was the subject

[@emmapeterson1650]

Sella Show Kalani was addicted to heroine, Brynn had an eating disorder, Camryn was a prostitute, Nia was in a gang, and Kendall had schizophrenia

[@BabyBunch]

when did schizophrenia become an addiction..i was kinda lost on that

[@iyearn1993]

Baby Bunch I don't think it was meant as an addiction themed dance. more like, different points of life that can bring you to your death. more of a "poor life decisions" dance.

[@onix731992]

Baby Bunch I think Kendall was lost in her own head and couldn't come back to reality like some mental disorders that struggle with suicidal thought I think Kendall was portraying that emotion.

I really appreciate the intense characterization in this piece, it’s so impressive how much they could express through choreography. So many clever details keep me watching this dance over and over again - like how often Kalani and Brynn dance together and interact in this piece where as the others don’t necessarily interact with one another showing the overlap between eating disorders and drug abuse.

Kalani 100% had a stand out moment in this dance. She has amazing emotion and acting ability on stage. All of the girls were so impressive that I just could not stop watching this over and over to watch each and everyone of them. Brynn literally stole my heart. Even Kendall’s part at the end…wow! They each acted so beautifully.

[@gracedelfosse3746]

Why is everyone only mentioning Kalani, Kendall and Brynn. Like yes they were totally amazing and stunning but so were Nia and Camryn! Their acting skills were great and Nia has improved a lot!!

[@khairevans3555]

I Agree 200%

[@gaboltl]

Agree and actually I think that Nia had the hardest character, like how are you supposed to act as a gang member in a dance routine, the other ones however were more cliché.

[@jeanpauledu_]

YAS!! finally someone said it! Nia and Camryn were so strong!!

[@amandaandbrookewoozworld2333]

Well, I feel like Kendall, Brynn, and Kalani had harder characters then the other two, but they did fricking amazing as well.

[@khairevans3555]

You're opinion

[@megg4554]

Finally, not the same six steps. It's also great that Kalani is finally the lead; she's clearly the best. Kendall is such a great actress here, but all the girls were amazing. If there is a season 8, maybe one without abby, that would be so fabulous because there could be guest choreographers and variety and amazing solos and stories and PLEASE let this show continue :)

[@megg4554]

also instead of being stuffed with aerials and turns there is actually dancing

[@amandaandbrookewoozworld2333]

"Without Abby" I just saw a picture of the girls (with costumes on) and a new dance teacher, and there was so much going on it was hard and confusing to understand. I do agree, Abby is a bitch and yells at the kids but, she does make great dances (most of the time)

[@niamhconnole8039]

Personally I think Cameyn nailed it. You could see the pain as she danced even when she was acting sultry. Her character was so believable

[@jake-un7wt]

this dance and suicide hotline will be why kalani will always be my favorite dancer. maddies facial expressions are always so good but there is something about kalani that feels so much deeper to me

[@estheradebiyi6406]

Camryn - sexual abuse Kalani - heroine addiction Brynn - anorexia Nia - in the episode Abby said she sold drugs but it's looked by like a steroids addition to me with the costuming Kendal - it's that illness where people hear voices I think it's called schizophrenia (These are all just guesses from my point of view may not be correct)

[@bellaclement2340]

Nia is a gang member, she gets shot.

[@bellaclement2340]

Kendalls character has schizophrenia, a mental illness that gives you hallucinations and psychotic breaks. After Brynn dies of starvation, she cant take reality and her body shuts down. After that, Kalani shoots up again and overdoses.

[@Lisa6964]

This one always makes me cry

[@ALDCSunshine]

The concept of this was beautiful, it's amazing that Abby and Gianna were able to choreograph and imagine a Nationals winning dance in just a few days. The girls have really improved, and seeing a Nationals without Maddie really shows the improvement of the girls. Once Maddie (and Kenzie) were gone, the girls really got more chances to improve, and more attention from Abby. The only critique I can make is that it seems the costume budget was completely blown on Kalani, Kendall, and Camryn, but I think the costumes fit the theme wonderfully without much embellishment. Congratulations to the girls, they were amazing.

[@FKAmanda]

Ouw I'm without words, this was absolutely incredible, this was really good. Everything was on point, the choreography, the emotion, the history behind the dance. I mean, everyone stood out. They all did a excellent job. And Kalani at the end and Kendall really improved. And the others were great as well. You go girls

[@zoenoelle8844]

This dance was awesome, except for that seizure at the end.. that part might have been a little too realistic at the end bc it kinda scared me 😱😂

[@paige2180]

Zoe Garcia she didn't have a seizure she overdosed

[@likeabunnie]

Zoe Garcia THANK YOU... I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE!!! Like... People can have seizures (I have several loved ones with seizure disorders, so I've watched this dance... Uh, lots of times, haha... I stopped counting...but I had to look away at the end most of the times at first, cause it scared me. No judgement on Kalani, because she did as she was directed, and clearly portrayed it VERY realistically, I just would have freaked if I were in the audience (though maybe since it's for the show, they were able to tell the judges/audience that it's ok and its acting)... I was glad to see how Kalani did seem very respectful and take it appropriately serious... But I also would be concerned about the real world implications... People tend to freeze when they see someone seizing and not know what to do* (even in a hospital I've seen staff slow to know how to respond), and I have a brother who's seizures, thank God, have become rare, but when he was younger he would have seizures where he stopped breathing, which is a BIG deal, since your brain needs oxygen (and it's honestly likely why he has intellectual disability with his autism... I can't imagine it not being a factor at least)... But if I'm not sure if someone is or isn't seizing, I would much rather be wrong than not respond (which, in a group setting, people tend to assume that someone else will respond to emergency situation, which leads to what's been called the "bystander effect", where if a large number of people see an emergency, they assume someone has called for ems, and it has led to instances where dozens or hundreds of people witness a person in distress/being assulted/raped/etc, and because they are around so many others, everyone assumes that ems has been called, when in reality no one had done anything to call for help. Anyways, I'm glad I wasn't the only one who noticed... And I hope that this doesn't ever result in people witnessing someone having a medical problem during a performance and assuming it's part of an act... I imagine the coach or someone would be present and aware to ensure the person gets help (though I've been knocked unconscious before at a marching band competition as a member of the color guard/(aka "flag team"if you're old school), and it was not at an obvious point in the show, so my instructors/director didn't notice it... I was fine (ish lol... Got a pretty bad concussion and not getting medical attention asap likely didn't help, but I was ok, it certainly could have gone much worse)... Point being that someone things do happen and your coach may not see or be able to be present, or maybe they freeze (it happens in emergencies)... If I had been in the audience, though, I would have gotten up from my seat and been walking in that direction at a minimum, though, because it DOES look like she's having an actual medical emergency, and it didn't continue too long, so people likely would have just started being concerned when they saw she was fine, but that would have seriously stressed me out, even after she walked off stage, I would be worried about if it was staged or real... I'm all for artistry, but I really... Sincerely hope that my knowledge of emergency response and degree in psychology are just making me overly concerned that this portrayal could potentially have real life consequences in the event that a performer is in need of medical attention and it is delayed due to this being on TV and somewhat normalizing the very realistic portrayal of a sometimes life threatening medical condition... Regardless, it definately freaked me out, even just watching it on TV (/my phone, lol)

[@aldcworld116]

Zoe Garcia ikr I was so scared

[@likeabunnie]

*IF YOU EVER WITNESS A PERSON HAVING A SEIZURE (for real): -CALL 911 or have someone else call, make sure it's clear WHO SPECIFICALLY is calling 911 [or your country's emergency number] -ENSURE THE PERSON IS SAFE: lower them to the floor if they are in danger of falling, move hard/sharp objects away from the person to minimize/prevent them from being injured during the seizure, if possible you may try to put something soft under the person's head if it is a hard surface -DO NOT PUT ANYTHING IN THEIR MOUTH: They will *not* swallow their tongue, but can easily choke, break teeth, or be caused other significant injuries from an object being forced in their mouth, regardless of past misinformation you may have heard, it's far more dangerous than doing nothing at all. NEVER PUT ANYTHING IN THEIR MOUTH. -DO NOT RESTRAIN/RESTRICT MOVEMENT: After ensuring that medical help is on the way and that the person is safe from falling and that any furniture or heavy/sharp objects have been removed from the area, just monitor the person and be sure they are safe. While it may be frightening to watch, and they may end up with some bumps and bruises from their movements, it can be much more dangerous if you attempt to restrain them. If you have concern about a particular area of their body being hit against the ground, you can help by placing something soft between their body and the floor/ground to minimize the impact (a coat, purse, or bag can work, or even removing your shoe if it is fairly flat and soft, like a flip flop or sneaker, can help absorb some of the shock). Remember, they aren't conscious or in control of their movements so you could cause dislocations etc if you attempt to keep them from moving... You could also be unintentionally injured as well. -LOOK AT THE TIME: it's not the most essential thing to remember, but if you are able to keep track of approximately how long the seizure has lasted it can help medical personnel -NOTE: If you know someone has a seizure disorder and have been instructed by them in administering medication/device to bring them out of the seizure, and you are confused or unsure of the situation, call 911 for guidance. If the seizure has lasted more than 5 minutes, call 911. If the person continues to come out of the seizure and then another begins, call 911. IF AT ANY POINT THE PERSON SEEMS TO STOP BREATHING OR HAVE BLUE LIPS/NAIL BEDS/OTHERWISE SEEMS TO BE HAVING TERRIBLE BREATHING DURING THE SEIZURE, CALL 911. If in doubt, or things just seem off, even if you've been trained in the appropriate response but feel there is something wrong, call 911. If you are aware that someone may have a seizure disorder (who is having a seizure and unable to respond) and you have not been instructed by the person on how to respond to their seizure, call 911.

[@likeabunnie]

xoxo gossip girl you're correct that she overdosed, but the overdose was shown by portraying her having a seizure (which can occur during an OD or other problems from drug use, though one doesn't nessecarily have a seizure during an overdose, nor are seizures only caused by drug overdose)... So you're both correct, Kalani was portraying a seizure as a result of the drug reaction/overdose ;)

[@thatbitch6426]

I'm really proud of Kendall. She used to always want to play the pretty roles with pretty makeup and pretty costumes, but now she's really taking on bigger roles with more interesting back stories and executing them flawlessly. I just love her

[@peytonlee16]

The best nationals dance they could have ever done

[@jermainekimani5434]

Now that I think about it, Nia is actually the best on Dance Moms when it comes to potraying her character like shes literally 10/10 with the makeup and the costumes and most importantly with the facial expressions. I really think she should be in acting

[@marleymescudi]

She is in acting. She's done a movie and an off-Broadway show.

[@aryanahampton]

they all connected their roles to each other so well.. there’s a moment where brynn tries to lean on Kalani and she wants to help but throws her off.. I see Kalanis character as using the drugs to cope with not being able to help the others around her trauma.. Kendall going insane over it.. very well put together piece I can’t help but be touched by it…

[@e.mmacarr]

Camryn is a beautiful dancer. She always catches my eye.

[@jalienedominguez8044]

Omg this dance was amazing everyone pointed their feet, straightened their knees, and used emotion.

[@lilydotcom]

i literally nearly cried when i watched kalani act out an overdose on stage, and when brynn collapsed due to anorexia

[@sarahdwyer5295]

Their technique in this dance was absolutely flawless

[@madelineamos8141]

Makes me mad when ppl say Brynn can’t act because she does an amazing job in this number.

[@berryblossom9322]

People: Kendall can't actMe: sends this video

[@brookehenderson5762]

This dance was so powerful. Such a beautiful portrayal - this was such a good episode all around And as someone whose been afflicted by many of those things in my past, I found it so respectful & touching. They didn't go too far, it was chilling but it was real. It wouldn't have hit the same, particularly to those they are portraying, if they didn't push the boundary. Trust

[@RoyalhighPrincessSun]

The flinch at the end broke my heart.

[@aliciafletcher9739]

I love this dance so much. You can see how much they've all grown. Kalani is spectacular and Brynn and Kendall's portrayal of their characters really stood out to me. And the song made the dance even more emotional.

BEST GROUP DANCE ON THE SHOW FIGHT ME

[@shannonjones4128]

This dance gave me absolute chills! And with there characters… omg! Kendall looked Insane, Brynn was weak and lost, Camryn looked lost, Nia was Strong and Powerful, and Kalani was fighting addiction! It is insane what the girls can do!

[@leidybuggy]

this is by far kendall’s best group dance

[@hanniux_perusquia]

I got chills watching this group dance, it’s my favorite season 7 dance and my favorite group from the show, every girl’s acting and passion shine. This dance reminds me like mental health, addiction, eating disorders

[@evanmochii8544]

Nias facial expressions kalanis technique Cameron's jumps kendals support and Brynn being an angel What a beautiful group

[@siplyaksiplyak6670]

I feel like Kendall was really good in this dance and she has really improved. My eye was really drawn to her, did anyone else feel that?

[@RubyKoehler]

kalani's foot was still winged even when she was having convulsions! omg

[@chanellemaxfield9785]

This dance was absolutely amazing and definitely went up there with “Where have all the children gone” and “The last text”. Those dances gave such great messages and Abby told the story amazingly through these dancers.

[@emmavictoria4743]

1:43 brynn getting weaker will never not bring me to tears

[@giannax3653]

Favorite group dance of all time. Brynn and Kalani both drew my eye, and Kendall really improved on her acting. Makes me cry every time

[@haley_bey]

as a 27 day sober fentanyl addict who overdosed 3 times and was pulseless non breathing all 3 times, kalahnis overdose at the end hits so close to home update: i’m now 443 days sober:)
