I love that Christi stood up for the girls and for Maddie all at the same time. This gives more grievance to the fact that Christi DID love Maddie and cared about her just like the rest of the girls.

[NLyfe]

Abby was wrong to disrespect Chloe like that. She ran out of the room crying and hyperventilating because of Abby’s disgusting behavior. She doesn’t even regret anything she said to the children which baffles me the most. She deserves nothing from the moms or the girls. Forever alone.

[Tigerheiress]

“In five years she might not be talented anymore. Look at brooke!”
Is crazy 😭

[NLyfe]

Kelly was right. Abby should’ve allowed others to actually audition instead giving the opportunitiy to Maddie. It did nothing but fuel the mothers anger which is valid, isolate Maddie from her friends, and allow Abby to have full control over Maddie. Now look. After all the praises, sabotages, sneak privates, and privileges given to her, Maddie doesn’t even dance anymore because of ABBY and doesn’t even talk to her. I bet Abby wishes she could go back and give full attention and equal treatment to all the girls 🙃🙃

I can't believe Abby said that about Chloe - that was so low. Abby believes she is the only person who has feelings, only her pain is valid. It amazes me how she's so quick to say how badly everyone else behaved and can't see how she is so much worse🤯
I don't know how any of these girls made it through this experience without extensive therapy!

[Bloombaby]

Seeing Paige mouth the words "Shut up, Abby" to Abby while consoling Chloe is so sweet.

Ik Christi had a few really bad moments on the show, but she was literally defending every single little girl in that room, as well (and especially) as Maddie. Her and Kelly were the only ones to stand up to Abby WHENEVER she did something wrong, and that's another reason why Abby hated Christi so much 😤 😔 🤧 😑

[ClarissaMcIntosh-jf]

Abby is the whole reason why Chloe lost her passion and love for dance. I’m surprised Abby isn’t charged with emotional abuse of these kids.

[AnushkaDewan-in]

I wish Abby would be banned from the dance industry. She not only destroys kids childhoood, but even destroyed Maddie s. Maddie told in that interveiw how happy she was when she left ALDC.

[razanemsaddak]

Poor Brooke, even though she didn’t have the chance to get Drop Dead Diva, you can tell she was actually so happy for Maddie when she got first with her solo🤍 I love her till this day.

[urfavshteditor]

7:23 this is actually really emotional. Christi was yelling the ugly truth at that woman and she couldn't take it, so she insulted an innocent 10 year old girl. Disgusting. Christi's been saying that Abby was sabotaging Chloe from season 1 and no one ever believed her. After what Abby said in S8, I hope all the mothers apologised to her. Especially Melissa 😒 🙁 ☹️

[NLyfe]

Maddie’s solo was really pretty and elegant. She was very controlled I just wish they showed more of the DANCE!!

[MacI-]

I love how the best moms (Kelly Hyland, Holly Frazier, Loree Cloud) were all born in 1970. My mom was also born that year, and she is a wonderful mother. Lots of awesome people born that year.

Chole, her mother Christi, and two others has actually just developed a new dance competition.
She is a co-founder.
So I wonder if she will allow the Abby Lee dance company to compete.
I lowkey would love to see Abbys face when she sees Chole and Christi running a competition.
I would also love seeing Cathys face as well.
Cathy never liked Christi. She wanted to "clean Choles clock".
So I'm interested in what Cathy and Abby think about Chole now.

"How you them apples" - Famous words by Christi.

I feel horrible for Maddie and everyone because of that. 1, Maddie just had to use the bathroom, 2, the way Abby called Chloe a sneak is DISGUSTING, and 3, Abby should’ve given of the girls a chance. By doing things like this, they just hurt the moms and girls even more. WHY ABBY, WHY?

[javelldunn]

Abby hugging Maddie in front of everyone that is rude😢 Chloe deserves to be better

[arleneraynor]

it gets me so angry when Maddie is the only one getting opportunities like Abby should be more thoughtful and maybe have all of the girls have opportunities. and when Abby does that it just makes the moms more mad. so it makes sense why Christi is always saying “it’s unfair Maddie is the favorite and always gets winning solos and makes everyone the shadow of her” because it’s the truth sadly😡. Abby is a brutal person. and when Abby made Maddie do her drop dead diva she keeps on rubbing it in everyone’s face like shut up Abby!!!

[sophiemetz]

This shows that Christi cares for all girls and I agree with her in this

[Darceyy]

I’m just saying in the vids I keep watching of dance moms I never see Chloe 😢I feel so bad for her, even if maddie is abbys favourite chloe should still be treated like she is apart of the team xx 😢

[Heylol]

All i wanna do is watch the drama here😂
