Don’t feel like an idiot. That’s what these producers and reality tv people are trained to do. It’s sad because we don’t realize how much trash is instigated by the producers. Big Brother is notorious for changing votes by starting rumors.
i’m starting to think anne boleyn and heather chandler is the crossover event of the century. anyways i’m happy both of you can still watch youtube from the afterlife.
@@a.person4761 I see you everywhere, glad to bump into you again. The WiFi in hell is so good tho, cant say the same for heaven but at least I can get my daily RUclips fix ig
Always knew that Christie and Kelly were right about Melissa. Even Holly said it, she said that Melissa was a smart women and she knows when to play her cards. Christie even said when you think your one step ahead or that ur doing good Melissa would purposely be five steps ahead of you. She also said that they know Melissa, everyone sees the good but only they know the sneaky, evil, and bad.
Honestly Abby should have been more caring and trusting towards mothers like Holly, Christie, and Kelly who were blunt and with her. Jill and Melissa clearly suck up to her on purpose to get there daughters far cause the minute they became famous they left her. Abby was messed up towards Christie, Kelly, and Holly who were truly honest towards her and tried to be respectful but Abby would cover for Melissa who was just a complete bit-h and now Abby sees that.
@@jilltrevail3739 No ofc not but she was not there for any other kid, also they always claimed to be melissas friend but then they talk behind her back and when Abby had her blowouts with maddie they never stood up for them
@@ksifbrmandarf2839 Melissa always talked bad about them to abby. Why would the other moms stand up for Melissa and Maddie when they always got what they wanted. Melissa also never stood up for their kids and for the other moms but yet you expect them to defend Melissa and stand up for her? You are saying that Melissa hurting the other kids at the expense of the other kids isn't her being in the wrong? There was literally an episode where Christi was defending Kenzie against her own mother because Melissa was saying that Kenzie should not have won.
The best reunion the whole world have been waiting for Cathy vs Abby.Thank God you both have come to change the whole world minds. They are best friends
I am shocked to hear what happened to you ladies! All this was for credits & views for the show that broke up a friendship! So glad you you’re back to being great friends!
Reach out to Chloe, Abby! I think she deserves apology for things said to her, I would love to see you two resolve that and move on to forgiveness. Chloe is a intelligent woman now and I would love to hear you both have a adult conversation !
@@hannahmitcheson3426 Abby herself said outside the show that she didn't like Lukasiak family and because the kids were tied with a contract and can't leave..she can tell Chloe whatever she wants. She really needs to apologize go her. Picking on Chloe because she has beef with her parents really wasn't a good thing to do.
@@maddiehernandez3238 Chloe had it the worst. Nia was right behind her. It appears her and Nia are on good terms now. Nia was always good but Abby finally came around.
This was a wonderful moment to see them together reminiscing on about their feelings towards the show I loved seeing them talk about their friendship as well such a beautiful and happy moment
The sad thing is that for all the fame the show brought everyone, it really damaged so many of them. The kids almost all have ptsd and severe anxiety. Relationships and true friendships were destroyed. The good, heartwarming moments became fewer and fewer and the cruel, angry moments became more and more of the show as it progressed. I can't excuse some of the things Abby or the moms did or said for the show, but I do understand they were under immense pressure and were manipulated greatly. I feel like the show took a turn for the nasty especially after season 2. Season 3 and 4 were pretty much, lets destroy Chloe, Paige, and Brooke's spirits, after that, it seemed Nia became the new target, then Brynn, and Sarah in Season 8 to mention a few. I figure these kids weren't chosen for those roles and mistreatment wholly by Abby, the producers pushed it to make their mothers mad and get more "good fights" on camera. I feel like the people on the show wouldn't all be so angry at each other and bitter if they hadn't been put under such extreme stress and almost forced to "stay in the ring" until they fought, like dog fighting or chicken fighting.
It’s really sad. Abby was probably with Maddie and Kenzie more than Melissa was. Then she stole thousands from her and quickly distanced herself. Really messed up.
I don't think she ever will, either for legal reasons, or maybe because Melissa has dirt on her too. If she could, she definitely would've by now, she's abby lee miller 😂😂
Abby you’re looking so much like your old self again, but as an even better version than before. You look so full of light and health, proud of all you have overcome.
I’m currently binge watching Dance Moms. I only just recently got into it and I love it. This discussion has really opened my eyes to the behind the scenes stuff that goes on. I never liked Cathy because of the way she was on the show but I had no idea that she was a paid actor. Watching Cathy and Abby together was really nice. Cathy seems like a really lovely lady. I still love Abby though. She’s my favourite.
nia was just cast in a movie..jojo is mega famoue..maddie is doing westside story with stephen speilburg ava has done has great movie on net flix.. shall i go on .. some have done very well!
They were all laughing it was so very staged by the producers.....they instigate stuff but then jump in to restrain the Moms....watching Jill get violent was priceless....
I LOVE that you two are talking and seem very friendly with each other! I always thought you guys seemed more like best friends then what was portrayed on the show. I look forward to seeing you two do more things TOGETHER hopefully! Much love! Xo
They are both so much more likable here. I was a dancer back when the show was airing (dance instructor now) and I always thought the show missed the mark on what the actual dance community would consider entertainment. I guess they were catering to the masses, but the fighting got old very quickly.
I'm not a dancer or instructor but I also thought it missed the mark. I feel like we wanted to see the dancing, the choreography the Abby made, and stuff like that. The mom drama and Abby vs. Cathy was so over the top. I figured this is why Abby didn't want to mention Studio 19... so that this kind of drama wasn't enabled again.
As someone who was on a reality tv show, there are many things that ARE real, but a lot of things that are purposely edited or people who specifically manipulate things IRL
i think this is such the epitome of reality tv not being reality. @abby, I am so so happy that you decided to make this video and post it. This is such a great testament of what producers do to people for fame, for money. And i think you two are amazing people :') Thank you for changing the lives of others and aside from the television, being true to yourself now.
I am so happy that this was put out there. I knew there had to be more to it all! It wasn’t fair what they put y’all through and how fans treated some of the cast members, I can’t wait to hear the rest of it next week! ❤️
I know it’ll never happen but I really want to see her have a heart to heart with Chloe (without Christi)…idk I feel like they both have things they wanna say to each other and I personally think it’ll be good for both of them
That would be fascinating, but I think realistically after all the stress in that relationship I doubt they’ll ever speak to each other. Chloe even stated before that she blocked out a significant amount of Dance moms because it was so overwhelming for her.
I absolutely would love for Abby to work things out with the Hylands and Chloe! It definitely needs to be on their terms though and I feel like Abby should first send them a letter or private message before broadcasting it online. From what I understand Abby said some things off camera that were extremely hurtful and definitely don’t need to be relived on camera.
@@bethanyjohns9943 I agree and I feel like it should just be the girls because every time their moms are involved it gets messy😂 also they’re all adults now if Abby reached out to them and actually apologized for the things she took out on them, most of the time because of their mothers, I think the girls would be willing to listen they’ve always been more open minded their mothers tbh lol
Cathy will probably never see this but i always loved her, she never failed to make me giggle.. i was the same age as the girls when it was actually airing, and i had pictures of the girls printed out and after the episodes would put their pictures in a pyramid and waited till the next week to see if i got it right! Dance moms was a huge part of my childhood even tho i was never dancer.. i’m so sorry to the both of how out of control all of the hate got. it’s really sad at the end of the day we’re all humans. we’re all imperfect. the producers are to blame. i hope it’s not still that bad, you both are amazing women!! especially you Abby, you are the strongest, bravest lady i’ve ever seen. you’ve been through obstacles after obstacles and you’ve never failed to persevere! lots of loves and good thoughts for you both xoxo💞
“Can’t the competition get cancelled and we can go to the mall?!” I felt that 😭 all of those other story lines you both put out there sound way more entertaining and realistic! The producers missed out!
So glad to see that they are friends. The producers made both of them look so horrible. I refused to believe that Cathy or Abby were actually that mean.
I knew they were friends when Abby giggled all the way through Cathy’s impromptu solo dance at the showcase. I never believed the negative nonsense. Abby, you’re looking great !!
This was so interesting to watch. I am happy to see that you and Cathy have a friendship and you are clearing up a lot of the nonsense that was put out there. I was a fan of the show but it never came off as actual reality to me. I couldn't imagine that your studio would be so successful if things really worked how it was depicted. Both you and Cathy look fabulous. How did you both get younger over the years?????
It was so lovely to see abbey and cathy talking to each other in a really friendly way and just like two girl friends catching up, the show made them both look despicable so sad , but such a treat today to see them both for who thay truly are 😊
I think that this was a really important interview to share on RUclips so that the world can better understand what Dance Moms truly was. And while Dance Moms was a “reality” TV show, much of what was depicted on the show, was far from reality. I look forward to watching part II next week! And Abby, I hope that you continue to heal and feel a bit better each and every day. 💕🙏🏼😘
Also at 9:23 (We would hug we would kiss) lmaooo Abby is there something you need to tell us about you and Cathy??? Maybe meat man didn’t do it for Cathy
I’m surprised a lot of people didn’t catch on sooner. I never disliked Abby or Cathy. I think because of how many shows I’ve watched as a kid and thinking reality shows were really weird because of how people acted to one another. It seemed like Cathy and Abby truly had a connection before their arguing and bickering. It’s so upsetting and heartbreaking that people eat drama as a meal. The thing about how people would text her on what to say is sooo f*cling sad. You both deserved better. I’m so sorry that people get brainwashed so easily.
I remember tweeting to Cathy during the high points of their fighting and Cathy clearly stated she and Abby are friends and colleagues! I kind of knew at that time they didn’t hate each other 100%!
The moment we’ve all been waiting for. Really loved this video. It really gave an insight as to how everything was manipulated. I wish Abby would’ve exposed the cheating moms lol
The best reunion ever i was waiting for this forever I clicked faster then abby could say "everyone is replaceable" anyway I felt abby was heartbroken when she called mellisa " the one mother "
I always wondered why Cathy appeared Grateful plus UnGrateful. I did not think about the negative impact on Cathy’s business. ❤️ 🤗 I only wish they televised this side of Cathy before.
We all saw Abby’s breakdown with the producers and mental crisis. They loved it btw I am sure. Just my opinion. Despite the viewer numbers just know that a lot of us did not enjoy watching it at that later stage. At ALL. So many figured in our heads that it was mostly outside the show influences and life situations that made all the impact. So many did not have any idea the level of daily anxiety Abby truly endured. Yes it was entertaining and it made the corporation behind it a ton of money. But did they pay for the kids and Abby’s counseling for life when wanted and needed after it wrapped? 🤔 I’d need thousands in therapy if it were me ....
abby you look fantastic after everything you have gone through! also wanted to add im so glad you both are showing the public who you truly are, and helping one another to show that hollywood is just tv reality lies. You ladies are both fantastic teachers.. abby i danced 16 years in my life and i would have loved to have had you as my teacher.. i was a lot like your students wanting to dance 24/7. i was stretching every hour that i wasnt in dance lol
It’s great to see that Abby and Cathy are still friends even after the show that was a great comeback and cool to see more information of behind the scenes
I love y'all and Dance Moms Forever! I watch them over and over and it's still the best show ever! I wish the best for Miss Abby and I'm so sorry for all you have been through and look at you so strong and happy. It's amazing how wonderful you are now. Cathy is a hoot and Vivi is adorable. We need a reboot Dance Moms 2.O!
I think this would really be great for them if it would be at all possible. The girls I think are old and strong enough to handle it and hopefully apologies can be made and things can be cleared up
Did you hear Abby evade Cathy and not apologize when Cathy said Abby calling Cathys mom pathetic affected her mom? She went in to how she doesn’t remember misses her own mom instead of acknowledging that is a hurtful thing whether she remembers or not. The girls are better off on their own and let Abby do damage control of her own image with the adults she worked with instead of the kids.
Chloe and Nia don’t owe Abby anything. They were little girls, and she was an abusive adult. It would be nice if Abby offered them an apology or showed some kind of remorse with no strings attached, but there’s nothing to really discuss beyond that.
Ugh this just shines so much light on those awkward times when Cathy and her team or Ava and her mom showed up in the dressing room unannounced and it caused a scene. The producers literally stopped Cathy at the door and made her go back in the dressing room and act up more for "content." How they all survived that environment is beyond me. And for the producers to always include the kids in it, this was traumatic I'm sure.
The show that DM’s could have been that you & Cathy discuss would have been so much better! I enjoyed the show but often skipped through the fighting etc, the dancing & training etc was so much more entertaining!
I remember an interview with them both talking to Rosie O’Donnell. In that show they said they were colleagues and didn’t hate each other. It’s good to see them back together again
POV: you feel like an idiot for not liking Cathy and now have started to hate the producers for breaking up two great friends
I love cathy, shes so funny
she’s always been a favorite of mine!
Don’t feel like an idiot. That’s what these producers and reality tv people are trained to do. It’s sad because we don’t realize how much trash is instigated by the producers. Big Brother is notorious for changing votes by starting rumors.
I loved Cathy the whole show
i loved cathy she was funny asf 24/7
I never believed they actually hated each other, but it’s honestly really nice to see them just vibing

I think that this was a really important interview to share on RUclips so that the world can better understand what Dance Moms truly was. And while Dance Moms was a “reality” TV show, much of what was depicted on the show, was far from reality. I look forward to watching part II next week! And Abby, I hope that you continue to heal and feel a bit better each and every day. 💕🙏🏼😘
Amen
Awesome to see them as friends. I'm from Canton, Ohio and thanks ladies for helping support dance education and children's lives.
The reunion we’ve all been waiting for!!!!
WOW! Amazing interview. Abby looks absolutely stunning. Cathy looks great as well. Loved this
Love to see Cathy’s bunny addiction is still alive
(Look at her pillow)
Wow it's so nice that Abby and Cathy are laughing and having fun together
“We were friends before we were lovers” I mean it’s pride month after all 😘
Also at 9:23 (We would hug we would kiss) lmaooo Abby is there something you need to tell us about you and Cathy??? Maybe meat man didn’t do it for Cathy
AND they might be going to Paris together 😏
1:26 the way that I got hooked up with you.
@@michelam6977 LMAOOOOO
@@michelam6977 lmaoooo I feel like we’ve just started a conspiracy theory that Cathy and Abby are secret lovers
This Video will be more Legendary than Maddie's "cry" solo..
That solo isn’t as legendary as the mom sound bytes. “You can have your WRONG opinion” hahahahah
I hate that song and that solo
Cathy's little song. "Come on say it with me, go...weeeee move ooooon!" song worked.
OMG LMFAO I REMEMBER THAT 😭😭💀
I’m surprised a lot of people didn’t catch on sooner. I never disliked Abby or Cathy. I think because of how many shows I’ve watched as a kid and thinking reality shows were really weird because of how people acted to one another. It seemed like Cathy and Abby truly had a connection before their arguing and bickering. It’s so upsetting and heartbreaking that people eat drama as a meal. The thing about how people would text her on what to say is sooo f*cling sad. You both deserved better. I’m so sorry that people get brainwashed so easily.
I remember tweeting to Cathy during the high points of their fighting and Cathy clearly stated she and Abby are friends and colleagues! I kind of knew at that time they didn’t hate each other 100%!
I love this real side of these women. They seem so respectful and sweet. I feel terrible for believing that they were ever terrible people :(
The moment we’ve all been waiting for. Really loved this video. It really gave an insight as to how everything was manipulated. I wish Abby would’ve exposed the cheating moms lol
The best reunion ever i was waiting for this forever I clicked faster then abby could say "everyone is replaceable" anyway I felt abby was heartbroken when she called mellisa " the one mother "
I always wondered why Cathy appeared Grateful plus UnGrateful. I did not think about the negative impact on Cathy’s business. ❤️ 🤗
I only wish they televised this side of Cathy before.
Abby is actually really pretty like she’s beautiful wow she looks amazing
We all saw Abby’s breakdown with the producers and mental crisis. They loved it btw I am sure. Just my opinion.
Despite the viewer numbers just know that a lot of us did not enjoy watching it at that later stage. At ALL.
So many figured in our heads that it was mostly outside the show influences and life situations that made all the impact. So many did not have any idea the level of daily anxiety Abby truly endured. Yes it was entertaining and it made the corporation behind it a ton of money. But did they pay for the kids and Abby’s counseling for life when wanted and needed after it wrapped? 🤔
I’d need thousands in therapy if it were me ....
You wrote a whole essay
So true
@@azjha5838 Hahahaha! I took script writing in college. Plus I watched way too much Dance Moms 😂
We need one like this with Kelly.
LoL😂😂
Awww..was nice to hear they really didn't want to fight 🥺💕
Honestly this video has made my day! I didn’t even know I needed this Abby and Cathy reunion 🙏🙏
abby you look fantastic after everything you have gone through! also wanted to add im so glad you both are showing the public who you truly are, and helping one another to show that hollywood is just tv reality lies. You ladies are both fantastic teachers.. abby i danced 16 years in my life and i would have loved to have had you as my teacher.. i was a lot like your students wanting to dance 24/7. i was stretching every hour that i wasnt in dance lol
I clicked on this faster than Abby could say “Save your tears for the pillow”
Cathy looks great, she’s maintained her look all these years, hasn’t aged a bit.
Her and jill probably have the same dr
Abby and Cathy’s relationship seems so respectful and wholesome. I can’t believe this was hidden from us.
So happy to see you two smiling and laughing.
It’s great to see that Abby and Cathy are still friends even after the show that was a great comeback and cool to see more information of behind the scenes
I am happy that they are still friends and they are not mad at each other because what happened on the dance moms
Just found this on RUclips and I’m so blown away hearing how dance moms was run..so sorry to the both of you.
Cathy and Abby are friends wow I'm in shocked but it's very heart warming😍
I love y'all and Dance Moms Forever! I watch them over and over and it's still the best show ever! I wish the best for Miss Abby and I'm so sorry for all you have been through and look at you so strong and happy. It's amazing how wonderful you are now. Cathy is a hoot and Vivi is adorable. We need a reboot Dance Moms 2.O!
Abby and Cathy are irreplaceable. Anyone who dislikes this video is replaceable 👏💯
I disliked your comment to be safe 😂
@@tylermikkelson3263 LMAO
I am soo happy that Abby is still keeping healthy and seeing Cathy 😂
I am such a big fan of the ALDC
Love you Abby
I really think that Chloe, Nia and Abby need to have a conversation and find closure.
I think this would really be great for them if it would be at all possible. The girls I think are old and strong enough to handle it and hopefully apologies can be made and things can be cleared up
Did you hear Abby evade Cathy and not apologize when Cathy said Abby calling Cathys mom pathetic affected her mom? She went in to how she doesn’t remember misses her own mom instead of acknowledging that is a hurtful thing whether she remembers or not. The girls are better off on their own and let Abby do damage control of her own image with the adults she worked with instead of the kids.
Chloe and Nia don’t owe Abby anything. They were little girls, and she was an abusive adult. It would be nice if Abby offered them an apology or showed some kind of remorse with no strings attached, but there’s nothing to really discuss beyond that.
It’s sad that everyone, even the kids blame Abby about all the issues they still face, it has always been obvious to me it was the producers
Its both
@@lol-yk5qq literally both
abby abusing chloe was not set up by the producers.
abby being racist to nia was not set up by the producers
abby being vocal about her hatred for brooke and paige was not set up by producers.
OML - I never expected this
Ikr I was so shocked
As soon as I this I clicked on it got to love Abbey and Cathy
THE DUO WE DIDNT KNOW WE NEEDED
I read that as "the duo we didnt need"
@@elise7599 haha
Ugh this just shines so much light on those awkward times when Cathy and her team or Ava and her mom showed up in the dressing room unannounced and it caused a scene. The producers literally stopped Cathy at the door and made her go back in the dressing room and act up more for "content." How they all survived that environment is beyond me. And for the producers to always include the kids in it, this was traumatic I'm sure.
The show that DM’s could have been that you & Cathy discuss would have been so much better! I enjoyed the show but often skipped through the fighting etc, the dancing & training etc was so much more entertaining!
I love this, so happy to see u reconnecting with all these people abby!!
I hope you all are having amazing summers
you too:))
I remember an interview with them both talking to Rosie O’Donnell. In that show they said they were colleagues and didn’t hate each other. It’s good to see them back together again
