I don't understand how Abby acted all disgusted about The Last Dance when she choreographed FANtastic and Electricity for pre-pubescent children. And there were so many other pieces where the music had suggestive lines that small children really shouldn't be dancing to.
In two sapphires the girl singing says the following "I wanna drink you up, I can never get enough" 3x "It's not just how you touch me, it's the scent of your hair" "Stay a while, so we can explore" And I'm pretty sure there was other weird stuff
@@shrutipanday5918tbf the costumes for “We go on” (another season 7 lyrical dance) were more revealing bc the bottoms weren’t even high waisted like they were in the last dance. The costumes weren’t really THAT bad
@@ms.wilson6439just because you’re older doesn’t mean you need to dance a certain way while wearing a bra and underwear on stage. It’s not a sign of maturity or a way to “prove” being grown. However, electricity was worse.
I never cared for the groups where one dancer would get the big finale, and everyone else would either have to leave the stage or stay as still as can be. I don't know, it just always bugged me. And those dances happened a LOT.
The only time it worked was that hospital dance they did. When Maddie ran off crying was super powerful. But i swear it was always Maddie and it was that leave the ending the best cause that’s what most people remember.
I honestly agree with Christi’s opinion on “The Last Dance” because if you think about it, the girls last dance she be more mature. Some moments in the choreo wasn’t quite appreciate but also you don’t want to be at their age ending things off with a kiddie dance. Go out with a bang, show the growth!
@@alial-chalabi1799 That's actually why I disagree with her. They don't. Westside, Club, Mather... which studios have you ever seen that did a dance like that? There was a line that was crossed with nearly legal girls wearing actual underwear and doing actual stripper moves on chairs like that not just on stage, but also knowing it was going to be televised. It definitely hits different than the likes of minis doing sassy jazz like electricity.
I still want to see a Kelly and Christi reacting to dance moms together/ drink with Kelly and Christi (and the girls because MOST OF THEM all old enough now) (edited because stop coming for me, they were all almost 21 when I commented this and a bunch of them are 21 now. And I live in Canada and forgot about the drinking age for a minute there because the drinking age where I live is 18 and I’m 18) it’s weird to me that I can legally drink but there’s people 2-3 years OLDER than me that can’t drink in other places.
I love the "obviously fantastic is the worst, but let's all agree to pretend it never happened" vibes. That was too awful to even be first on the list.
One thing I didn’t like about Abby was every time they didn’t get first place, or as Abby calls it “win” , She automatically blamed the girls dancing and not the choreography.
I actually really like The Last Dance. I watched them grow up too. It was like a huge transition from where they came from. A little scandalous but, like it's been said, they are older and more mature! They were almost adults!
Considering they did Electricity, I loved The Last Dance! It shows that they’re not little girls anymore, and they’re capable of much more! Sure, some of the moves could’ve been altered to be slightly more age-appropriate, but they were nearly adults! It was amazing for what they did, and they genuinely looked like they were enjoying it!
In all honesty, the last dance in S7 was innocent compared to where Elliana and Lilly ended up at a much younger age. At least they were 16/17 and it was a performance and not their social media brand. Ellie and Lily are 13/14 and acting wayyyy more promiscuous than this especially on their social media accounts
I was really hoping you were exaggerating, but you were not 😭 Young girls don’t get adolescence anymore; it’s like they turn 11 and BOOM, they look and act like my generation’s high school juniors. And I’m in my early 20s 😳
I actually liked Children With Guns, but I always agreed that it was completely inappropriate for one of the girls to “shoot” another. I also found it very distasteful that the network changed the name. It *was* after Sandy Hook, and I think shying away and calling it Runaways helped to sweep the issue under the rug.
@@thatswhatshevlogged that is what the Chloe-Maddie thing is. The whole dance is about kids with guns, not just with malicious intent (Sandy Hook, as always, sparked debate about this country’s gun problem in general). However, even in that scenario, imagine it does happen in real life (and it does). The child holding the gun, the “Chloe” in the situation, will forever carry the guilt of taking a life. That’s huge. Not many people can say they’ve taken a life. I can’t imagine even playing that role at that age and pretending to kill, accidentally or not, my best friend.
ya i remember that day, it was terrible, i lived in new york at the time when that shooting took place, i just dont agree that this dance came out when that shooting happened
Hey Chloe‘s mum I have a question for you well actually it’s two questions first off I think you’re funny as hell I loved you and that’s mum you always make me laugh also I think the worst dance was silver spoons I think that aerial in the ballet number was not needed if it was an acro danceI would understand why it would be in there but it just felt out of place and very weird like there were two different dances going on did you know is that because I definitely did by the way I love you so much I am subscribed to your channel
My biggest question about snapshot was why did Brooke, the oldest and one who was supposed to be flirting with the photographer (Brandon) have a 1 piece costume/swimsuit on
Maybe because there was a lot of partner work/lifts, and wearing a two piece could lead to things slipping etc. A one piece avoids wardrobe malfunctions.
The last dance i actually liked. The girls were in heels dancing like adults I think the fact that the show had it up against Abby's redo of the last text made it seem worse. It reminded the viewers of season one and the girls being young
The whole “runaways” dance… the first hint that dance should not have gone on stage/aired is the fact that they had to change the name to “Runaways” and edit it SO heavily to hide the theme. I vividly remember being a sophomore in high school and seeing that dance and I thought it was done in such poor taste, mostly because of the timing of Sandy Hook. I thought the overall dancing was good… but the fact that it was done so close to that shooting left a very sour taste in my mouth. I also got so annoyed about Chloe being the “villain”… especially when discussing a topic that is very unsettling for children to hear about. That shooting was in an elementary school. Some of those kids being elementary-age at the time must have been so terrified. And for one of the children to be forced to act out shooting a friend is unsettling. It wasn’t appropriate for them to be doing that dance at the time it was put on stage. Not for 9-11 year olds. Also, love your videos! ❤️ Edit: holy moly I rarely comment on anything so the fact this got as many likes as it did 😳😂 Thank you for the thoughtful and respectful dialogue in the replies! ❤️
The reason the changed the name and everything was because of sandy hook, they had already filmed the episode and then during the editing phase the shooting happened so they decided to change it.
@@greenbeantm1096 The competition the girls attended and performed the number at (Master of Dance Arts in Bernardsville) occurred on February 23rd, 2013, two months after the Sandy Hook shooting in December. So no, it was indeed after the shooting this number was performed. As well, if you listen to the audio when Brooke does her solo bit near the beginning of the number, the newscaster is specifically referring to Sandy Hook (indicated by the number of victims and brief events of the day). If the shooting was after they competed, that audio would not have existed.
@@pint_pipe_cross omg and that’s one of my favorite dances they’ve done 😨 now I feel horrible for liking it because school shootings really hit deep to me :(
That was actually a masterpiece, shame it didn't create the impact it could have. The words of the song ad the music were powerfully conveying the reality of school-shootings. Children actually have died from accidental shootings, Chloe wasn't a villian in the dance, rather her and Maddie's roles were really powerful in conveying the message.
@@fortheloveofcats2462 you are more than welcome to have your own opinion on the number. Dance is an art! Just in my opinion (also the opinion of someone who is now a mom), it was unsettling for me due to the age of the dancers on the stage as well as when the number was put on stage. Because we don’t know how they felt about being in the number (whether or not it disturbed them), especially after Sandy Hook. And I don’t know if they communicated that discomfort or not. If the dancers were older (teen) I think it would have been more appropriate for them (content wise). It certainly had a strong theme, good production value, and potential, but it would have been more suitable for slightly older dancers (in my opinion). That’s all!
The last dance was probably my favorite!! They were finally seen as teenagers nearly adults!! I 110% agree with how you said we saw them grow up and it bends our views. I loved it they kicked ass!!
@@mamichula2394 basically Abby had the girls dress up as topless fan dancers that perform in Las Vegas. So all they wore was nude sparkly bras and silver booty shorts with bright pink feather fans along with matching headpieces so the episode with that dance got banned everywhere due to how inappropriate it was but I will never forget how all the moms were mortified except Melissa who was so into the performance 😂
hearing her praise a musical i was in for some reason gives me so much joy even tho she wouldn’t know i was in it but being june in cell block was my fav role ever
I think sassy dolls and other bad props were supposed to look bad so it was like you were just any old studio, not some TV show studio with a massive budget for professionally made props
Thanks for posting this video, Christi. This was definitely one that I've wanted to see. Totally understand why you wouldn't want to talk about the Fantastic dance & thanks for the tea about certain dances (unfortunately this doesn't surprise me that Abby had Chloe shoot Maddie in Runaways or whip Nia in Free at Last... 😒). I've always kind of wondered if maybe the Sugar Daddy lollipop was broken on purpose by production in hopes of creating drama of Maddie not dancing with the prop...I could be completely off about this & I'm probably wrong, but I wouldn't be surprised. The next video I'd most like to see would be a video where you rank your least favorite Chloe solos (I'm sure there's lots of tea to be had there) & a video of you talking about your favorite solos not done by Chloe. Have a wonderful day & I look forward to seeing another video. 😊😊
The Last Dance is one of my favourites 😂 I thought it was beautiful and sassy I dont think it was scandalous at all! Seeing Chloe's confidence shine through again, same with the other girls made it for me
Love you Christi. You've always been my favorite dance mom. Chloe was my favorite dancer and she's grown to be a beautiful young woman. I love how supportive you always were of her. Always trying to undo the harm that Abby did to her self esteem. And, yeah, the mom dance probably was the worst. Mostly because watching Cathy shaking her chest was one of those things that makes you want to gouge out your eyes, but then it would have been the last thing you ever saw. 🤷♀️
yes the boots in royals where ridiculous. I just checked cause was honestly curious they got 2nd place with all hindrance Abby placed on them good on girls to do that well when being set up to fail.
The last dance was actually one of my absolute favorite dances on dance moms. They looked so confident and moved with so much precision and sass and I thought it was amazing 💃🏽💃🏼💗
I agree with the last dance thing . Electricity was not the most age appropriate for 9 year olds but when you’re almost 17 I think you’re allowed to be a bit more scandalous
You didn’t mention in the video but also in the Children with Guns dance, they changed the original music to an instrumental. The original had small segments of news reporters talking about actual shootings that happened throughout the song.
I gotta say, I COMPLETELY 100% fully disagree with the "Children with Guns" number. Seeing it on Dance Moms, I thought nothing of it because it was hardly shown and Cathy/Anthony were talking bad about Paige (which was awful ugh). But someone posted the entire dance with the original music like 8 years ago (I think it's still on TH-cam?) and watching that, this dance blew my whole mind. I can completely see your point of view on how Chloe was always playing the "villain" character, but Chloe was always so good at those dark roles. That's why her solos were always memorable for me. And that's why I always rooted for her as a dancer. She's an actor when she dances and she has always played those roles beautifully. But with this dance, it was more of a group effort than anything. I don't think Chloe was the only villain. It shows the entire group as the villain. I think every girl took the subject matter so seriously and performed it beautifully. The dark numbers are always controversial, but damn are they exceptional. This dance absolutely is in the Top 3 with "Where Have All the Children Gone" and "The Last Text."
I think the dances that are seen as “creepy” or “scandalous” are worse because of the camera angles. Like the one where they are “nude” with the feathers and they slowly pan up the girls legs. In real life, I’m sure it’s much less weird.
Well that’s the dance Christi said she wasn’t gonna talk about and it also got banned and got them disqualified from the competition and the episode was pulled off air
My list is a little different. Taken (the message behind it), Pink Lemonade (the infamous hat fiasco), Fan-tastic (no explanation needed), Light as a feather (clearly set up to fail similar to Royals), just to name a few.
One of my absolute least favorites would have to be Nip/Tuck. The theme was inappropriate, the costumes were inappropriate, the choreography was extremely subpar, and the girls just seemed to have an off day and didn’t nail it. It was just as cringe-worthy as Fantastic, to be honest.
Lmao!! Silver spoons is one of my favorite dances!!! I think they look so cute!!! And the way the dresses flow are so beautiful!!! And the music is just fun!
The frozen ice one with the slide? Idk why 🤷♀️ just like the kids seemed so tired, emotionally hurt, and un interested. Surely there was a back story to that. Cause usually those kids could seemingly tune out everything.
My favorite bits of your appearances on DM and your videos etc are your hilarious sound effects. For example, "We were having a good time and the conversation was all 'bipbipbip' and then Loree gets there and it's suddenly all 'Womp woooomp'"
I forgot how hilariously bad the Moms' dance was! 😂 I actually expected that Vegas showgirl dance to be on your list (idk what it was called but they were supposed to look nude which is all kinds of screwed up). Oh and when you said Sugar Daddy dance I was like, "WHAT?!" Then I realized you meant the candy. 😬
I'm surprised the fan dance didn't make the list! Also I thought the "barbie" prop looked really good. I'm surprised that light as a feather stiff as a board, and nip and tuck didn't make it. Also didn't like the dance Payton was in that had that weird slanted wooden prop. I need a part 2!!!
Christi was on Paige’s side for Silver Spoons, she didn’t want Chloe to take the special costume from Paige and she didn’t want Chloe and Paige both in costumes that didn’t fit. So not only did Kelly & Christi not fight about the costumes, Christi immediately sided with Kelly and Paige.
Hi Christi, thank you so much for posting another wonderful and awesome video. It always makes my day seeing a queen like you here. You are extremely great!!!
christi your youtube videos are so amazing 😁 keep it up making great videos 🙂 i have been our & chloe fan ever since the first episode of dance moms aired on lifetime 🥰
The way abby was "discusted" by the irreplaceables dance when She's ligit dressed some of her dancers with maxy pads stuck to her costume (that mini payton). And dressed the elite team in pajamas when abby brought the select team on, and dressed them as pigs in the vegan dance and so many more 💀
The last dance compared to some professional dance classes in LA is actually kind of tame... And if they where almost adults I don't see much of a problem as long as the girls where ok with it.
Hi Christi! One video idea I have for you is showing us some dances that didn’t air on dance moms! One dance I would love to see is Maddie and Chloe’s duet everlasting friends!!!
Runaways is actually one of my favourite dances on the show but I completely understand why you don’t like it! I didn’t know it took place so close to the Connecticut shooting !!
I was literally dancing the role on clara onstage at the same time that the sandy hook shooting happened. In the same state. But we had no phone service so nobody knew about the shooting until after parents came in later and heard the news
Fan-tastic should have been number one but I understand not wanting to talk about it. My question is how was it actually allowed to be aired and do you regret allowing Chloe to be in the dance?
I think it was cute! Sure a little hokey but i think there was a place for that when you do something new every week. Not everything can be groundbreaking. If you have the opportunity to do something light and fun why not
Hi Christi! I just wanted to say you are so amazing! You and your family are so sweet! Such amazing people! Your videos make my day! I’m glad your out of the stressful environment dance moms put you through! I hope you and Chloe are much better now. You’re so hilarious! Great video Christi!
The drama around Silver Spoons was Chloe’s green costume was too big and Paige’s pink costume was too small or the other way around and they wanted to switch costumes so it would fit but they weren’t allowed to.
I can't blame if the Mom's or the girl's can't remember much since they all where running on lack of sleep, stress and being a part of a reality TV. Christi you look so much more happier and healthy. It's so awesome to see you in a better area in life. all my love.
Cathy in the moms dance was a bit ridiculous not gonna lie...I actually felt really bad for Christi in the episode though because she genuinely looked like it would be the worst thing ever and it's clear that in her mind it was. I don't blame her
Can we just take the time to appreciate that Silver Spoons was literally choreographed to a Sims 3 music track and Abby just got away with it
REALLY??
I ALWAYS THOUGHT THIS LMAOOO i never knew other people noticed
Thank you. No one ever believes me when I say it's the Sims music. 🤣
Really?????!?!?!?!

Because we don’t know how they felt about being in the number (whether or not it disturbed them), especially after Sandy Hook. And I don’t know if they communicated that discomfort or not. If the dancers were older (teen) I think it would have been more appropriate for them (content wise). It certainly had a strong theme, good production value, and potential, but it would have been more suitable for slightly older dancers (in my opinion). That’s all!
ngl but light my fire has the same vibes of someone and their cousins showing their parents the dance they made up in the basement 😭
The last dance was probably my favorite!! They were finally seen as teenagers nearly adults!! I 110% agree with how you said we saw them grow up and it bends our views. I loved it they kicked ass!!
She looks so young for her age. Anddddd so amazing for her age!
Christi: the #1 worst dance is......
Me: Fan-tastic...It was banned everywhere lol
Christi: I don't even wanna talk about Fan-tastic
Me: 👁👄👁
My reaction was the same
what was it about i havent seen it
@@mamichula2394 basically Abby had the girls dress up as topless fan dancers that perform in Las Vegas. So all they wore was nude sparkly bras and silver booty shorts with bright pink feather fans along with matching headpieces so the episode with that dance got banned everywhere due to how inappropriate it was but I will never forget how all the moms were mortified except Melissa who was so into the performance 😂
@@khorrijones WHATT
@@mamichula2394 yup! It was a hot mess
What Christi doesn’t know it that she makes our days better!
Omg yes i agree. She is amazing i love her and her girls!
Me too I think Clara is adorable and Chloe was raised well
I love how she was respectful and only used stuff Chloe was in
hearing her praise a musical i was in for some reason gives me so much joy even tho she wouldn’t know i was in it but being june in cell block was my fav role ever
I think sassy dolls and other bad props were supposed to look bad so it was like you were just any old studio, not some TV show studio with a massive budget for professionally made props
I really thought you were gonna put fantastic first! I actually didn't hate beautiful day either! I wouldn't have said it was the worst, at all!
she probally wants to forget that dance
Thanks for posting this video, Christi. This was definitely one that I've wanted to see. Totally understand why you wouldn't want to talk about the Fantastic dance & thanks for the tea about certain dances (unfortunately this doesn't surprise me that Abby had Chloe shoot Maddie in Runaways or whip Nia in Free at Last... 😒). I've always kind of wondered if maybe the Sugar Daddy lollipop was broken on purpose by production in hopes of creating drama of Maddie not dancing with the prop...I could be completely off about this & I'm probably wrong, but I wouldn't be surprised. The next video I'd most like to see would be a video where you rank your least favorite Chloe solos (I'm sure there's lots of tea to be had there) & a video of you talking about your favorite solos not done by Chloe. Have a wonderful day & I look forward to seeing another video. 😊😊
This 100%%
Major tea ☕
The Last Dance is one of my favourites 😂 I thought it was beautiful and sassy I dont think it was scandalous at all! Seeing Chloe's confidence shine through again, same with the other girls made it for me
Love you Christi. You've always been my favorite dance mom. Chloe was my favorite dancer and she's grown to be a beautiful young woman. I love how supportive you always were of her. Always trying to undo the harm that Abby did to her self esteem. And, yeah, the mom dance probably was the worst. Mostly because watching Cathy shaking her chest was one of those things that makes you want to gouge out your eyes, but then it would have been the last thing you ever saw. 🤷♀️
yes the boots in royals where ridiculous. I just checked cause was honestly curious they got 2nd place with all hindrance Abby placed on them good on girls to do that well when being set up to fail.
It's all I could look at and they looked heavy
when christi posts a dm ranking vid >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Hope you enjoy the video!
I lowkey thought silver spoons had great technique but I HAVE FALLEN ASLEEP WATCHING THAT DANCE
The last dance was actually one of my absolute favorite dances on dance moms. They looked so confident and moved with so much precision and sass and I thought it was amazing 💃🏽💃🏼💗
Hi 👋 Mya, can I please ask you a question,
Same
I agree with the last dance thing . Electricity was not the most age appropriate for 9 year olds but when you’re almost 17 I think you’re allowed to be a bit more scandalous
You didn’t mention in the video but also in the Children with Guns dance, they changed the original music to an instrumental.
The original had small segments of news reporters talking about actual shootings that happened throughout the song.
I gotta say, I COMPLETELY 100% fully disagree with the "Children with Guns" number. Seeing it on Dance Moms, I thought nothing of it because it was hardly shown and Cathy/Anthony were talking bad about Paige (which was awful ugh). But someone posted the entire dance with the original music like 8 years ago (I think it's still on TH-cam?) and watching that, this dance blew my whole mind.
I can completely see your point of view on how Chloe was always playing the "villain" character, but Chloe was always so good at those dark roles. That's why her solos were always memorable for me. And that's why I always rooted for her as a dancer. She's an actor when she dances and she has always played those roles beautifully. But with this dance, it was more of a group effort than anything. I don't think Chloe was the only villain. It shows the entire group as the villain.
I think every girl took the subject matter so seriously and performed it beautifully. The dark numbers are always controversial, but damn are they exceptional. This dance absolutely is in the Top 3 with "Where Have All the Children Gone" and "The Last Text."
I think the news reports were a bit much, but the concept of a dance on gun violence with kids portraying it was definitely super haunting
I absolutely agree. It was dark and heavy but that's what made it stunning and impactful.
Chloe was so good in the last dance, I love the beginning when she struts across the stage, she was amazing couldn’t take my eyes off her.
I think the dances that are seen as “creepy” or “scandalous” are worse because of the camera angles. Like the one where they are “nude” with the feathers and they slowly pan up the girls legs. In real life, I’m sure it’s much less weird.
Well that’s the dance Christi said she wasn’t gonna talk about and it also got banned and got them disqualified from the competition and the episode was pulled off air
Are we not gonna talk about how beautifully Christi aged, I mean you go girl!! ❤🎉
Lol i lost my mind when you said "IT LOOKED LIKE A CONVENTION CLASS" 🤣🤣OMG i love u! U are sook funny
THE MOMENT WE’VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR!!
My list is a little different. Taken (the message behind it), Pink Lemonade (the infamous hat fiasco), Fan-tastic (no explanation needed), Light as a feather (clearly set up to fail similar to Royals), just to name a few.
I agree! I was honestly waiting for Christi to mention Pink Lemonade and that infamous hat fiasco!
Also the 7 dwarfs dance 🤮
@@Ryleeforeverfan Seven Dancers is one my faves for some reason 👁👄👁
@@khorrijones lol really it was just goofy in my opinion
Surprised she didn't mention fantastic.
One of my absolute least favorites would have to be Nip/Tuck. The theme was inappropriate, the costumes were inappropriate, the choreography was extremely subpar, and the girls just seemed to have an off day and didn’t nail it.
It was just as cringe-worthy as Fantastic, to be honest.
Anyone here from 2024?
Me
I form 2022
me lol
Me
Meeeeeeee
You’ve got a point on The Last Dance. That back up dancer thought hadn’t occurred to me.
I'm surprised she didn't put the 7 dwarfes in here just bc of the music and the costumes
yea like i feel like the dance was a bit of a mess too
@@lizzzzzzzz2012 Agreed, some of the moves in it were uh...😬
@@daisygiraffes.9969 yea…
I felt the same!!!!! I’m like… HOW did that dance not end up on this list‽ especially making Chloe wear a “shady” hat!!
Fr, they look like a bunch of colorful smurfs 😂
I was waiting for ‘fantastic’ throughout the video...when you said you didn’t want to mention it, it didn’t shock me 😂💀
1.What's Christi Lukasiak - Skin Color/Tone?
2.What's Chloe Lukasiak - Skin Color/Tone?
3.What's Clara Lukasiak - Skin Color/Tone?
I felt so cool and I’m the know cos I defo thought number 1 would be electricity and when u put it at 10 I literally was shook to the core
Lmao!! Silver spoons is one of my favorite dances!!! I think they look so cute!!! And the way the dresses flow are so beautiful!!! And the music is just fun!

The frozen ice one with the slide? Idk why 🤷♀️ just like the kids seemed so tired, emotionally hurt, and un interested. Surely there was a back story to that. Cause usually those kids could seemingly tune out everything.
You and chloe were always my favorite, and I’m so happy y’all are thriving now
My favorite bits of your appearances on DM and your videos etc are your hilarious sound effects. For example, "We were having a good time and the conversation was all 'bipbipbip' and then Loree gets there and it's suddenly all 'Womp woooomp'"
I forgot how hilariously bad the Moms' dance was! 😂 I actually expected that Vegas showgirl dance to be on your list (idk what it was called but they were supposed to look nude which is all kinds of screwed up). Oh and when you said Sugar Daddy dance I was like, "WHAT?!" Then I realized you meant the candy. 😬
The Vegas showgirl dance that was pulled from the air was called Fantastic.
@@Caroline-jt6ez yeah but most people have already seen it
i agree with the last dance one like besides all the ig inappropriate moves(?), the choreo was actually really good
I'm surprised the fan dance didn't make the list! Also I thought the "barbie" prop looked really good. I'm surprised that light as a feather stiff as a board, and nip and tuck didn't make it. Also didn't like the dance Payton was in that had that weird slanted wooden prop. I need a part 2!!!
The dance with the wooden slanted prop was called The Atlantic I think?
I hated nip and tuck sm
“Because it’s a pain in the a-“ got me cracking up.😂
Christi was on Paige’s side for Silver Spoons, she didn’t want Chloe to take the special costume from Paige and she didn’t want Chloe and Paige both in costumes that didn’t fit. So not only did Kelly & Christi not fight about the costumes, Christi immediately sided with Kelly and Paige.
You should do a video on all of the dances that had prop malfunctions and give us some behind info on those
I think that would be fun
Hi Christi, thank you so much for posting another wonderful and awesome video. It always makes my day seeing a queen like you here. You are extremely great!!!
christi your youtube videos are so amazing 😁 keep it up making great videos 🙂 i have been our & chloe fan ever since the first episode of dance moms aired on lifetime 🥰
That’s so nice to hear! Thanks for watching!
You are very welcome christi
The way abby was "discusted" by the irreplaceables dance when She's ligit dressed some of her dancers with maxy pads stuck to her costume (that mini payton). And dressed the elite team in pajamas when abby brought the select team on, and dressed them as pigs in the vegan dance and so many more 💀
It’s so funny how Christi is like, “I never want to see Fantastic, never want to hear Fantastic, and never want to talk about Fantastic.
Yes abby put maddie with the select tean in the second dance
Where Have All The Children Gone had the creepiest music, and such a serious theme when the girls were so young...
It’s dancing and dancing can have emotion from any age! It’s just a dance
Christy is too iconic!
The last dance compared to some professional dance classes in LA is actually kind of tame...
And if they where almost adults I don't see much of a problem as long as the girls where ok with it.
Would love to see a collaboration of Christi, Holly and Kelly. You three were my favorite Moms
Hi Christi! One video idea I have for you is showing us some dances that didn’t air on dance moms! One dance I would love to see is Maddie and Chloe’s duet everlasting friends!!!
l second this
Runaways is actually one of my favourite dances on the show but I completely understand why you don’t like it! I didn’t know it took place so close to the Connecticut shooting !!
That’s why they changed it from “children with guns” to “runaways” you can watch the full dance with the original song on TH-cam and it’s so amazing
@@greenbeantm1096 yeah that’s the version that made me love it! The original audio was so good
I was literally dancing the role on clara onstage at the same time that the sandy hook shooting happened. In the same state. But we had no phone service so nobody knew about the shooting until after parents came in later and heard the news
Congratulations to chloe 👏🙌❤💖💙💓🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈 so happy for her and brook all of my best wishes ❤💗💖
CHRISTI YOUR SOOOOOOO ICONIC ILYSM
You were my fav on dance moms!!! You are so pretty!
You were 100% my favorite dance mom
Fan-tastic should have been number one but I understand not wanting to talk about it. My question is how was it actually allowed to be aired and do you regret allowing Chloe to be in the dance?
Yes! I thought that was going to be #1!
That episode has been removed tho
@@FionaA17 I know, but still it could have been talked about.
@@FionaA17 u can still find the dance on TH-cam though.
I can imagine Abby would take it out on Chloe if Christi refused to let her be in it.
I can’t believe seven dancers didn’t make her list, that dance was AWFUL
I think it was cute! Sure a little hokey but i think there was a place for that when you do something new every week. Not everything can be groundbreaking. If you have the opportunity to do something light and fun why not
I thought so too! It was a cute dance for season 1 maybe 2, but very immature for their age.
@@Marieqbut it was the penultimate dance before nationals in season 4
"Im not going to start being like" *barking noises*
"Actually I am-"
The fact that I got a add for the cloe perfume is so iconic 🙊🌷
Christi I’ve always loved you on Dance Moms. You were 100% right about standing up to Abby.
Hi Christi! I just wanted to say you are so amazing! You and your family are so sweet! Such amazing people! Your videos make my day! I’m glad your out of the stressful environment dance moms put you through! I hope you and Chloe are much better now. You’re so hilarious! Great video Christi!
Thank you as always for the entertainment Christi! 💜
The drama around Silver Spoons was Chloe’s green costume was too big and Paige’s pink costume was too small or the other way around and they wanted to switch costumes so it would fit but they weren’t allowed to.
girl you are GORGEOUS you look so happy and content and you are showing Abby by living your best life . ❤❤❤ we love to see it
Since you left the studio you had a glow up no lies you look great
I liked hurt them first as a dance, putting aside that apparently the props weren’t the best made etc.
1.What's Christi Lukasiak - Hair Color?
2.What's Chloe Lukasiak - Hair Color?
3.What's Clara Lukasiak - Hair Color?
I can't blame if the Mom's or the girl's can't remember much since they all where running on lack of sleep, stress and being a part of a reality TV. Christi you look so much more happier and healthy. It's so awesome to see you in a better area in life. all my love.
Cathy in the moms dance was a bit ridiculous not gonna lie...I actually felt really bad for Christi in the episode though because she genuinely looked like it would be the worst thing ever and it's clear that in her mind it was. I don't blame her
