Abby Lee Miller doesn't have regrets about how she coached her dance academy students on her former Lifetime series Dance Moms.
The dance instructor and coach stars currently on season two of reality television series Mad House. In a recent interview with E! News, she spoke about witnessing student feuds on Dance Moms. With eight seasons, the show aired from 2011 to 2019.
Miller told E! News that her coaching has "not changed one bit." "A plié is still a plié, a gorgeous, good, beautiful foot is still a gorgeous, beautiful foot," she continued. "And if you don't have it, you don't have it. Lie in bed at night and do the exercises for your feet and get better feet."
Last April, Dance Moms alum Chloe Lukasiaki told Page Six's Virtual Reali-Tea podcast that Miller "manufactured" a rivalry between her and fellow student Maddie Ziegler, by allegedly showing the latter favoritism.
While Miller didn't acknowledge the accusation outright, she told E! News, "I've always had rivals at my studio."
"When you go to the ballet barre in class do you stand next to the person that's horrible with horrible legs, or do you go stand next to the person whose leg is up there?" Abby continued. "If you want to get better, that's who you go stand behind and you try to get your leg higher."
The former castmates' concerns apparently don't bother Miller, who's "slept well" and keeps in touch with alum Jojo Siwa since Dance Moms ended.
