Jojo: You're not entitled to anything in this world
Jojo is also not entitled to decide if Maddie and Mackenzie want to relive their past or not.
Both of them have expressed that they're greatful for the platform DM brought them, and they don't owe anyone anything at this point.

Maddie has class. Good decision not to join the circus, Maddie.

[Amy-xtmq]

I hate to say it but Maddie is still the main character and she's not even there

[AimeeBrittain]

So Nia wasn’t invited ? Love how they forgot to mention her. SMH

[jyslog]

"why would we be upset when we should be grateful" oh kalahni maddie paved the way for you to be able to come and they should respect their choice since when they both and their mother left it wasn't on good terms so you shouldn't question why you should understand

[annie.]

Maddie and MacKenzie don't have to join just don't talk bad about them if your so called friends with them jojo

[spikesecho]

You don't get to tell anyone, they are who they are because of something

[NicholasJH]

Why go back to channel that allowed the abuse to happen.

They all have grown up to look so much like their mothers. I can’t believe this much time has passed since the show. Abby didn’t need to be there. She would have just sucked all the positive energy out of their reunion. They look really well.

I think everyone has a right and choice to relieve history if they want to and they chose not to. What is the big deal ? That could have been a traumatic time in their lives or it couldn't have been... Either way, they made the decision to not come back and do the reunion. Why people won't just accept their decision and move on I have no idea !

[allyburnett]

I didn't realize that was Brooke and Paige last episode 😮😮😮

[toni.langstonpenn]

I don't blame her or her little sister.I think they need to leave them alone

[ZenithasaurusRex]

Kalani and Jojo are so obsessed with the Zieglers not going because they are the only ones that the two can attack, like stfu Jojo left the show for a better oppurtunity, why can't Maddie and Mackenzie do the same thing? Maddie doesn't even say the words Dance Moms when she is asked about it

[ftgsxde]

As much as I respect the girls who participated to find closure I also respect the girls who didnt and found closure privately

[nicoletully]

Madddie I love you much!! But member when u made the video with Chloe of the remix of last Friday night search it up!! It’s so cute

[christinawhitehead]

They said no end off nobody’s business there right now

[EmilyKresl]

They don't mention Maddie til the last 20 seconds of the video

Dance moms.
The mountain was heavily crowded and emotionally charged in certain areas, with a wild and unpredictable atmosphere most of the time. The dancers were all young enthusiasts who were passionate about their craft. Overall, I believe they truly enjoyed dancing. It was an exciting journey that they all experienced together and will remember forever. Despite any challenges, they persevered for 9 seasons and now have a large adult fan base, as the countless children who watched the show have grown up.

Its their choice if those girls dont wanna talk about their child hood trama i wouldnt go either if i were them so shame on jojo for acting like she can control people's choices

Abby has hinted that Melissa had something to do with her going to jail because of some money Abby asked her to bring from Australia.
Why would Mackenzie and Maddie want to go to the reunion?
