Dance Moms was a dramatic look into child dance competitions. But was this so-called reality show actually real? Stars like Maddie Ziegler are speaking out.. It wasn't scripted the way that a non-reality TV show is, but there was definitely a huge amount of producer manipulation. The moms were told to amp up the drama and take any kind of annoyance or upset to a level ten, and the producers would often goad them into fights.
I'm kind of new to the show and in s3 but I wanna know your guys opinion, do you think most of the dialogue, acts, maybe dances and drama is scripted/staged and a set up? ( obviously it's reality tv) but do you think the drama between the moms? Cathy's remarks? Abby's behavior? May have just been a set up for the show?. 'Dance Moms' fans are constantly questioning if the show was real or fake. The original cast gets candid about whether the show is scripted.
