Just hours after Abby Lee Miller was sentenced to one year and one day for bankruptcy fraud, the Dance Moms teacher sat down with Good Morning America. When the reporter asked her if she thinks the sentence is harsh, Miller said, “A year and a day, it sounds like a movie title.” Then she added, “I’m going to pretend I’m in a movie and we’re on set and I’m there for 10 months and that’s the way it’s going to be.” I am sure the wardens and her cell mates are going to love to hear that.
It sounds like she thinks it will be such a cake walk, that she plans on spending her time in federal prison reading, learning Spanish and writing another book. You would think the reality show star would be more grounded in reality, but it doesn’t seem like she is. A reality she will soon face when she enters prison within the next 44 days.
She also says that she plans on spending her time focusing on herself because she says spent her life focusing on other people’s children instead of having her own. Something she has said plenty of times on the show.
When asked if she would do it all over again, she replied, “I would never had filed for bankruptcy ever,” adding, “I do not recommend it.” Maybe not frauding the government and hiding the money would be another way to look at it, but that is me.
I think the harshest form of punishment to give in her prison would be to make her watch Dance Moms with her fellow inmates. Let them critique how cruel she is to the kids and face the harsh reality of how people see her on the reality show. How does that sound?
Finally, I wonder if she reached out to Martha Stewart and asked her for her advice on how to survive in federal prison. Imagine the advice the homemaker could have for her. Although, I can’t see Stewart picking up her call. Can you?
