Dance Moms as we know it is gone, but it looks like it is coming back with 2 new teams. ETonline is reporting that Dance Moms season 8 is in the works with Abby Lee Miller.
Even though the dance teacher is battling an aggressive form of cancer, she is plotting her return to television after her a nearly year-long jail sentence and a cancer diagnosis.
A website called DanceMomsCasting.com has an application up looking for dancers between the ages of 7-12 years old to join the show with their moms, of course. The 7-9-year-olds would make up the minis and the 10-12s would be for the juniors. Callbacks are scheduled for the weekend of September 8th.
Personally, I would rather see the dancers we know being trained by Cheryl Burke than watch Miller teach and destroy the morale of a bunch of new girls. The show had become so fake towards the end of its run that with a new cast there will not be anything remotely feeling like it is not staged for the cameras.
That and with all Miller has been through in the last year, you pretty much have to assume she will be even meaner to the dancers than she has been in the past. Kids that young should not have someone cut them down for ratings. It stays with them for a lifetime, and I hope Lifetime considers that.
Do you want to see Dance Moms back with new moms and their daughters or you think it has danced its last dance?
