You know this is a bunch of lies so answer all of us are you lying for clout or bc you hate when industry big shots try to protect kids not hurt them? Are you hiding some minor ideation secrets?
The real abuse in this story is from Maddie’s parents who voluntarily let their daughter get into any of these situations. Dance Moms is just filmed abuse of minors perpetrated by the teacher and the parents who knowingly bring their kids to be abused.
Her mom was a wimp on DM's and I was watching an old episode when the lady who was also a dance teacher and new cast member, had went to dinner with Maddie's mom and she told that lady about all the other dance moms private business but of course left out her own messy situation at that time? Her mom definitely should've said a big fat "NO!!!!" to that Shia video.
I agree with you. I have never seen or heard anything negative about Sia from Maddie. I am just very happy that all of the girls are now safely away from the past with Dance Moms. I would cry hearing them being yelled at by Abby. The mom in me wanted to hug them and have a private, loud conversation with that woman.
Same, so no one raised concerns about that horrible dance woman until she got busted by the government for money laundering n tax crimes , but this is smw concerning?! This channel has a really high production value, yet the content is the usual leftist SJW crazy bs stuff pushing out of the ass..
Because Maddie is being groomed, if anyone thinks it's OK for your child to cuddle with some random grown ass adult, there is something wrong with you. I don't care how much money they have that's just wrong. Also, saying that's her best friend, another red flag, grown ass people do not befriend children like that. Their relationship is completely inappropriate.
Y’all don’t understand- I connected with my 7th grade reading teacher and would stay after school with her to read manga and talk about anime and life. She’d drive me home. Later, she taught at my high school my senior year so she worked it so I could be a TA for her and went to her baby shower. It’s just a motherly love.
Did you live with her, travel with her, sleep in the same bed, and did your teacher say she didn’t want to do any work unless you were in it too? Because what you’re describing is a healthy relationship. Sia & Maddie were not.
I remember we used to have big brother big sister programs and that’s all I thought about reading your comment. I believe Sia was just taking her under her wing.
wow, the title is really misleading. i highly doubt sia would intentionally do anything that would harm maddie physically or emotionally; so i’m going to continue to support both artists.
@@bubbleblow7461 I'm not stupid I know what that is ! I was groomed and abused as a kid...all I'm saying is it's the first people do ...take something that could be genuine and make it nefarious ! I doubt sia would do this in public
@@eliceoramirez4483 Oh my dear child, you have no clue. Try and grow up. It would take any reasonable adult 5 seconds to realize this is a completely creepy relationship
I suspect that whoever titled this video didn't have enough facts to justify a title that accusatory, but chose that title anyway in order to try to get a lot more views.
Not every “adult” that takes an interest in a young person is a creep. I think there are a lot of empathic souls out there that can and want to connect with younger people.
I followed Sia as a fan during her days in the group Zero 7. I watched Sia stop a concert to personally hand out water bottles to everyone in the front row and make security carry a girl who had collapsed in the audience at a gig in the Carling academy in Liverpool. She's a genuine selfless human. Don't believe this false news people.
@ElectricRaijin she didn't say Sia was a p* but only that a p* can act like a nice decent human being. They are not some monsters with horns. They just do disgusting things when the bedroom doors are closed. Many of them are acting very kind so people trust them with their kids. Actually some of them don't understand that they are hurting those kids. You were the one who made the connection to Sia instead of what it was, a flaw in your logic. That tells me a lot about what you really think because on some levels you must feel that this is not normal behaviour and people have good reasons for their doubts
There’s a video of Sia in a store paying for everyone’s groceries and they don’t even know who she is and she acts like she’s just a regular person. I’ve never heard anything bad about Sia.
Her childhood was catastrophic and the biggest person to blame is her own mother. You parents make your decisions for you until 18 and they did nothing to keep her kids from harm.
I agree. Her mother allowed that shit w the dance coach to go on. Sia saw her talent and pulled her away from that and now she is known as going on. Mothers job to protect and set the child up for their future.
That was really odd how she wanted for her to , and made her dance -with that older man inside a cage in that video - that result doesn’t sit right w me as a mother - and imagining my self being that little girl - it’s sending out pedo vibes and always has given me the creeps
I watched Dance Mom’s only a couple of times and was so disgusted by the coach and the mothers! I can’t believe people were ok with the emotional abuse those girls went through constantly. I had five kids the same ages as the dancers. I could never imagine treating my kids that way, or let anyone else do that!
Agreed. Would they be so good though? I think there is a pattern probably. Like a lot of great singers or artist in general went through a traumatic eperience. Pain makes good art.
@@N84Lyfeokay what kind of mother would put their young daughter on the TV show to begin with. No-good mother would ever put their daughter in a situation like that to begin with. It isn't okay to force Fame on your children they literally cannot consent. They were the adults they know how the world is they know that there were predators literally creeping on their daughters from behind the screens and in the audience. And they didn't give a crap about any of that so I wouldn't say a single one of them is a good mother. They could have done competition dance without being in a TV show and without putting their daughters faces and bodies all over TV as miners. I can't be the only one who's horrified by this right
@@WhitneyDahlin you do realize they were tricked into singing press releases which were actually 6 year contracts they couldn’t get out of them and they tried since the beginning of the dance moms. Also we can’t really say “what kind of mother” because you don’t know how you would react unless you’re actually in the position to begin with
Sia is a very kind person. It may seem like she is obsessive, but she is trying to protect Maddie from what happened to her on Dance Moms. Maddie is still friends with her, she is trying to do what she wants. Kinda like a bird leaving the nest. Also Sia gave her a gift, of freedom, of choice. Also, every time Maddie is talking about Sia, she always says super positive and kind things.
Didn’t it come out that Sia was in an abusive relationship with Shia during the time of Maddie costarring in the video. Sia and Maddie seem to have a good friendship and enjoy working together. It doesn’t feel so sinister and makes this video seem like a stretch to fill a narrative. Sia has spoken out about many terrible things that have happened to her in this industry and she saw some of herself in Maddie that she felt she could protect.
Ohhhh that was the relationship Shia had?!! I met him awhile back when all that came out and I didn’t know until after I spent like an hour with him lol.
Sia had nothing but the best in mind for her, and it was all with her and her parents approval, even the contreversial video. It's art people and it tells a story. Sia did find a way to express herself after writing hit songs for other artists for years and to bring what she wanted to the stage.
My daughters will be happy to learn that Maddy is free from Abby Milker. Thank God. I wonder how her mom is doing, allowing this level of abuse go on so long. I guess being the fav in her class trumps all judgements ❤
They haven't even tried to give the illusion of goof information in this video, they're straight up reaching, & jumping to conclusions in an obvious way. It's disappointing how many commenters haven't picked it up when it's so obvious to anyone with even a basic level of comprehension.
@@aussiejubes Exactly! Controversy sells!!! The only thing that's 100% True in this story is that Maddie's former dance coach IS a Crazy, Abusive, Narcissistic woman who is living out her own repressed issues of whatever she went through in her own childhood, & her subsequent own self hatred. As is said, "hurt people, hurt people".
I don’t see anything wrong. SIA loves Maddie, it seems very maternal. Maddie always talks about about her in a good way, people love to turn kindness into evil
I did not see Sia exploiting Maddie. Sia has always been a bit quirky. I have been a fan of Sia since 1997 and she is awesome in concert and yes quirky hehe. I think she helped Maddie be even more successful. I think the Title to this is so misleading about Sia. Sia is so open, how could she not be trusted!!!
There are several things out of context here, first of all, Sia has always been a public advocate for human rights and children. It is far fetched to think that she would imprison Maddie to be with her, both have accompanied each other personally and professionally in their lives, even just a few months ago they performed at Coachella with Labrinth to perform Thunderclouds...
Not the biggest fan of Maddie BUT was Dakota Fanning autistic? Was Sean Penn mentally disabled? How about Leonardo DiCaprio? All have played people with disabilities.
People apparently have issues with that too now. Because EVERYTHING is offensive, oppressive, and revolves around identity labels these days. Dare to question or disagree, you'll be called an "able-ist" and "bigot" 🤷♀️
Yes exactly Actors have been portraying all types of people & disabilities for years. Wasn’t there an actress who played Anne Keillor, who of course in real life Anne was deaf, dumb and blind? It’s becoming ridiculous these days. I’m not Maddies biggest fan either, but although I didn’t like the movie I did think she did an incredible job acting in it.
I wish everybody would just back off of Maddie and let Maddie be happy and let Maddie do what Maddie wants to do for herself the adults need a back off of her she's just a child
As someone on the spectrum who grew up on stage and as a skater (Im Also a singer songwriter and mum of 4 with 2 on the spectrum) I have to say this comment of someone on the spectrum playing the part is not impossible but near dam it, because remembering lines and confidence is a huge issue and routine of dance why as a skater I had 2 routines for comps for years. I even struggle to learn my own songs even tho I wrote them!! I think she should not have to apologize for that. People without health issues play parts all the time, like forest gump, rain man and even the guy who played Stephen hawking. People just love to make unnecessary dramas instead of real critiques of someone's work and talents... Haters going to hate I guess
@@Kellythistleton Chloe Hayden is playing the character of Quinni in the reboot of Heartbreak High. Daryl Hannah has had a great film career and has been working consistently since 1981 and is still working. Just because someone is autistic doesn't mean that they can't do it. Sia wrote the part for Maddie, it didn't occur to her to look for someone autistic, the same way as Sia thought that the appropriate research for Maddie to play the part was to watch 'What's Eating Gilbert Grape' and TH-cam channels that show autistic children having meltdowns. She didn't feel it was necessary for Maddie to actually talk to any autistic people so that she would understand why autistic people do the things that they do and what leads up to meltdowns.
I personally think Sia is an amazing person and so is Maddie, Maddie may have been a target for a lot of people but imo Sia protected her so i do not think Sia was ever "controlling" Maddie just because she knew how much Maddie deserved and how good she is at acting and dancing. So pushing someone to show there talents and what they can do isnt always a bad thing! Xoxo
@@Ash0leigh I am not 100% sure about the Sia situation but the producers if dance moms would threaten the moms that if they left the show/studio they would be sued for everything they owned and their daughters names would be ruined in the dance community leaving the moms in fear so they stayed. When Maddie was offered the opportunity with Sia her mom knew that even if she was sued and abby talked poorly about her daughter Maddie would still have a chance to continue her career in dance.
You can’t even imagine how hard it must be for the film crew etc to watch the horrors and not intervene. I’m sure some of them are sweet souls who are just doing their job and realise DM was bordering on child abuse
@@iheartbmdik8178 This puritan period is coming to an end. I have no idea how the people addicted to this is going to survive in the world when nobody cares 😂😂
@@iheartbmdik8178I have mixed feelings about this I feel like she was because of all the pressure and having the feeling of always trying to please everybody around her and doing everything her dance teacher say and I also don’t because it was a reality show
She’s being a mother and a friend! Nothing more. She has taken on the role of a care giver, and hasn’t walked away from that responsibility! That is something to be respected, not scorned.
So many adults have a creepy obsession with Maddie. Sia and Abby aren’t that different, Sia is just nicer about it so it doesn’t seem so obvious. Sia manipulating Maddie into doing Music after begging her not to reminds me of when Abby made Maddie kiss Gino for a dance. Both made her do humiliating things in front of thousands of people. Sia put a ton of pressure on Maddie like Abby did too. Poor girl :(
It sounds to me she got all these negative emotions from whoever her coach was. That's a lot of pressure and negativity to put on such a young girl. It's no wonder she questions herself or if someone likes her. This person was constantly criticizing her
Is anyone else kinda pissed at the little boy and his coach for not bailing on the kiss when they saw how uncomfortable that made her? How did none of the adults in the room not say “this gimmicky little stunt probably isn’t worth lightly traumatizing an 11yo girl” That was not too early to teach the boy respect for boundaries
It baffles me how all these random people online criticize Sia and Maddie's relationship despite never having met either of them and knowing nothing about their personal lives. Maddie has had nothing but good things to say about Sia and Maddie is an adult now, she can do whatever she wants to do.
So if you’re concerned about an adult’s relationship with a traumatised child, you should mind your own business because you don’t know for sure? Sounds dangerous.
@@fabplays6559 Yes you should mind your own business if you don't know for sure IF THEY ARE CELEBRITIES FAR FROM YOUR LIFE. That's very different from someone near you, someone you can try to help, or try to learn more about their situation in the first place. Being concerned about Sia's relationship with Maddie is a bit like being concerned that Zeus harmed some farm girl. We have no proximity to the legend.
I just came across this video, I don't know much about this situation, but I think Sia is trying to protect Maddie from the pedos in the industry. I know about the incident with Sia and Miramax CEO Harvey Weinstein... I think Sia was trying to bring a message across, but maybe Sia was pushing a little too hard. I think maybe Sia just needed some assistance to kinda keep things levelled, maybe she was stressed, hope everything is sorted now.
I honestly believe Sia has Maddie's interests in mind, maybe overly protective, but Sia knows how predatory the celebrity scene is. I read that she stopped Maddie from going on a private plane with Harvey Weinstein for an audition in N.Y C....
Maddie did not want to take on the role of Music at first but Sia told her that everything was going to be fine. I am tired of the adults in her life exploiting her and I also found it weird that Sia refuses to do anything without Maddie.
@@eliceoramirez4483 I am not surprised that it flopped because it was disrespectful of Sia to cast maddie as an austic girl knowing that maddie, for one didn't want to do it and didn't cast an actual austic person to play the role. If she really wanted to do a movie and cast maddie she could've done something else, like with mental health but because austim was a major conversation at the time she just had to do it. She was straight up ableist and biased ( which she admitted that she planning to cast maddie in the first place).
@@daydreaminavenue well I'm gay and I take no offense to straight men playing a game man I.e brrokeback mountain call me by your name. ..both beautiful films...I get irritated when we're lovable clown bff's...I saw the movie. Even if they'd hired a person with autism. The movie was just awful
@@eliceoramirez4483 i'm not autistic but i did some research about it before watching the movie and it was clear to me that she didn't care about the community at all. First of all, the restraint scenes ( which she promised that she would remove ) was disgusting kids have died during restraints and for years people in the autism spectrum have spoken out about the cruelty and dangers of it. I am not surprised of how severely ableist the movie was because Sia collaborated with Autism Speaks, an organization known for treating autistic children as mistakes.
@@hinatahyuuga120 true that seemed a bit weird. I’m gonna play devil’s advocate real quick, something we have to remember is that could’ve been taken out of context. But I also can’t deny that it’s weird or creepy either way tho
@@iright36 Nah that interview was on an Australian show 'The Project', the full clip is that Sia says that Maddie is her muse and she can't/doesn't want to create art if it doesn't contain Maddie. She also said that she felt protective of Maddie and wanted to keep her safe and the best way that she could think of to do that is to keep creating projects for Maddie. Sounds great on the surface, but where in there is Maddie's wants and needs. To me it sounds like Sia is extremely attached to Maddie and was doing things to make sure Maddie had a reason to stay around.
Maddie needed a strong female role model who was willing to take her in & care for her. And; guess what? Sia did it! And, not only did Sia step up and do it, she did it with grace, dignity, and love. She even brought Maddie’s career to new places and saved her from a life that would have scarred her (even more than it already had) with severe PTSD, anxiety, and severe depression. So oh yea, let’s all attack Sia! SMH. There is real abuse of little girls going on all around you, no matter where you are! You should join your nearest non-profit that fights trafficking and/or child abuse and let Maddie & Sia shine like the diamonds they are!!!!! 🦄🦄💋💋💎💎💚💚☮️☮️
The enemy comes disguised as an angel of light or a savior, and it’s so easy to be deceived when you are vulnerable. I pray she is not in the grips of destruction anymore!
Most of the roles Maddie gets is because of sia You guys have no idea what sia does behind the scenes to sure Maddi gets the best in everything she does. And "west side story " sia went there on premiere And I'm pretty sure Sia made sure Maddie got the roles People can stay mad at Sia as long as you want but the fact that maddie loves sia and sia loves Maddie that's all that matters
@@claudiamertens951 sia also has two adopted boys now they are all grown and adults So you think Sia is not a actual mother ? That's hateful comeing from a "actual mother "
The mother KNOWING and allowing that type of abuse to continue with Dance Mom Abby is absolutely despicable. All she did was send her to be exploited by ANOTHER middle aged unstable woman. With the incredible talent that MZ was, I recognized that it was inappropriate even at her appearance on DWTS. But seeing this, wow - heartbreaking. Shame on her mother. I hope that MZ gets the help that she needs to create safe spaces for herself mentally and physically now that she is older.
It actually cracks me up how they have nothing legible against sia... they all just make up fish hooks about her, with artificial tackle, all flash and no substance.
Sia is an artist, and I can understand why she was so impressed with Maddie's talent. It's all for art. The connection between them was about art. I think Sia was (or is) a Maddie's fan, and I find it beautiful. Yes, children can have grown-up fans, or vice versa, and there's nothing wrong about it.
If this relationship is as damaging as the video claims (I’m not sure if it actually is,) her mother needs to be held accountable as well, this all started with her as a minor.
I used to have a baby sitter who would punish me If I cried but allowed her grandkids to torture Me all summer long They chuck rocks at me , lock me in the garage for hours with no water or food or light , they would taunt me all day take/break all my toys but if I ever cried for help my babysitter woul lock me in a closet I was 6 then now I'm 26 ND it has deff left a scar I have a hard time crying now and accepting help or ask for help bc I assume no one is going to help or it's gonna end even worse . Listen to your kids when they say they need help please
I'm so sorry this happened to you. No child should go through this. Parents need to stick up for what is right, and be there for their children. I don't even let anyone babysit my kids. Too many bad babysitters out there.
@mandimomof8channel963 now that I'm older I understand my mom had no choice we couldn't afford anywhere else both my parents worked in Philly so sending me to a cheap neighbor was her only choice . That babysitter passed away this year and I felt so much relief like I could finally let it go
I was abused growing up and became very close to my exes mother. We've spent a lot of time together, holidays, trips, camping, even well after her son and I split. She wasn't a creep, it wasn't an inappropriate relationship dynamic at all. She really helped me get through a lot of darkness. I don't think the relationship between them is any different. If something were to come to out, I'd admit I was wrong but, as of now I truly think its just people projecting wild speculations.
Ok where the hell are her parents when she was underage???? SIA is not right in the head to be obsessed with a child! If it's not too late get Maddie out of Hollywood we all see what happens to these kids!!!
Dance Mom was hard to watch. It was disturbing and abusive for those young impressionable young girls. It reminded me of some adults around me growing up who were narcissistic and abusive. We can only learn from this earth plane we all live in. Good for Maddie who’s slowly evolving into being her truest self by letting go of the need to please others. ❤
When any adult takes such obsessive interest in an unrelated child and has such close unsupervised access to that child, it is disturbing. The fact that it's in the heart of the music/ entertainment industry where there is such a mix of power, money and opportunity just adds further alarm bells. Celebrities are often trusted because we think we somehow know them and they are often loved and adored. But they are just people. Just as messed up as anyone else...maybe more so.
I blame everyone who controlled the original Dance Moms Girls, including Sia. I liked "Chandler" but hated the one that Maddie danced with Shia LaBeouf, or whatever his last name is. Why would any mother like Melissa put her child in that position? Because she was greedy. She claims that she was doing it for Maddie and Makenzie, but no. I also blame Abby for being the mean tyrant she was, and still is. She wants to reboot the show with the same producers who started this whole shit (pardon my language) in the first place. It is one of the reasons why Makenzie refuses to dance. Same with Brooke and Paige. I have seen all of their stories on YT. I do not blame them. Abby has ruined it for all of them, as well as the producers of that monster of a reality show. I hope one day that these girls have the audacity to sue them, and yes, I have seen all seven seasons, but refused to see the eighth, and hope they never have a ninth. I do not like the way this industry takes advantage of children. They work long hours, and all of these "monsters", including these parents, think about is money. Let a child be a child. If they make a mistake, correct them in the right way, not by yelling, but by showing them they care. This is one of the reasons child entertainers become drug addicts, stressed out, alcoholics, afraid of their own shadows, or in therapy. Any time someone like Sia is obsessed with your child, run away, and take your child with you. If you are a parent and decide to put your child into show business, do it for the child, have a very good lawyer, in fact, 2-3 lawyers, a child advocate in case you lose all your senses when you see how much your child will be making, have one working parent in a normal job if you are two-parent family, so that you can have backup money when the child decides to quit, and never make the child the bread winner of the family. And most important, let then be children and have fun and love them unconditionally.
Their "friendship" or however u would call a relationship between a 40 yr old and a 14yr back then was extremely weird. The poor girl even lived with her. Where on earth were her parents?! It's just not normal.
Shame on you for making a click bait title. The young lady in the clip seem to not have anything negative to say about Sia. I'm not really a fan of either. At the time the video came out I mean of course it was controversial. But I think that's also what sells music and makes things popular. I don't think Sia has anything malicious or heinous regarding the dancer. It sounds more like an aunt and niece very close relationship.
This video is exactly what is wrong with the world. No evidence of any wrong doing just vile suggestion an suspicion to create rumours that are so disgusting they can ruin lives.
Yea people are just saying things with no evidence, it's not like everyone knows Sia and Maddie personally and can actually accuse them of such things.
Just looking st the thumbnail….it’s definitely a clickbait….you should be ashamed of yourself trying to jump to conclusions Sia is maddies godmom and maddie,her boyfriend and her sister mackenzie still live and hangout with sia to this date!
Come on, this is so untrue, so disrespectful, so absurd and sad that Media create narratives like that accusing such a wonderful Human Beeing as Sia to make audience and money! SHAME ON YOU! People that watch this and don't know well Sia&Maddie's relation should looking for and will see that all this is BS and lie! Sia was always and still like a mother for Maddie and thanks to Sia she could develop her talent and carrier and have all the success she have! Respect for SIA AND MADDIE ZIEGLER! Love you Sia ❤❤❤
You people defending Sia to the death are not understanding exactly why. First, nobody is 'making anything up' as you suggested. Many people found both of those videos questionable, and as far as 'Music' is concerned, she clearly did not research enough, and also admitted Maddie being reluctant to do it - Sia also said she was crying the first day, which normally could have been anything, but Maddie was already an experienced performer. If she was 'so protective' of her, she could perform the simple task of making sure Shia's hygiene wasn't a problem during the shoot of 'Elastic Heart? The interaction was questionable enough - but with a smelly, uncouth older man? The snuggling wasn't the worst thing, but a little creepy to some people. Sia also blatantly admitted she would never work on another project without Maddie - that too, is a little concerning. Why does Maddie have to be in EVERYTHING she does? Bought her a new car? She's like her mom? 24 hour security? Why can't her mom do that? You know, Abby exploited Maddie for a long time. Sia's behavior is very questionable, not necessarily bad, or evil. You can't blame people for caring! No one is saying anything bad about Maddie. NO one really has anything to gain because they feel these adults - all of them - are behaving irresponsibly - back then, anyway - around Maddie. Let's say, that one day, Maddie does admit her relationship with Sia wasn't all she said it was, and Sia was indeed manipulative and creepy towards her and so forth. I doubt many people would celebrate the news with unrestrained glee - it be a sad day. There would be no 'winning' anything. So most people suspicious of Sia and her motives are not doing anything wrong, either. I myself was just starting to like her. 'Snowman' is one of the most powerful songs I ever heard. I don't want to hate or think badly of her at all!! That would suck! The concern is for young, underage children, especially girls(I think). There are emerging stories all the time of such alleged bad behaviors. We have to be sure, yes. If Maddie is okay with it in the end, so be it. But me, I am disgusted with everything I've heard, and seen, of not just Sia, but everything. Her MOTHER should have provided those things in the first place, not some strange adult that Maddie herself admitted she barely knew despite being a celebrity herself.
I love that video with shia and Maddie, it's all about perspective and reality. I heard it's a representation of dias relationship with her father, who had bipolar disorder. I can relate and it touched me.
Their relationship is weird, people saying sia wouldn’t do that , do y’all know her ? And saying she isn’t complaining, people who are being manipulated don’t complain. Why does she feel the need to be so clingy to her ? Why is she topless in from of a 14 year old . Why aren’t you asking yourselves this question. Their relationship is so weird and not normal
All I'm gonna say is if Maddie says the experience was traumatic then it was, but if she is ok with the things that she agreed to do when she becomes older than it is what it is. And even if she was traumatized but still cares ab sia and loves her than that's her own business entirely. Bottom line
Sia & Matty both have addictive personalitys. Matty will always be attracted to people that are hard to please. Matty wants to live up to their high exspectations of her & by doing so she creats a lot of drama, CRYING, acting over worked, on the edge of colaping. Then she pulls it all off & she gets the praise of the narcissis she loves working for. Matty how did you get this way?
Sounds like sia was feircly protecting her because of her past and what she had been through. This girl has not said anything bad about her. She helped her grow as a person by the sounds of this
Sometimes people can become over-protective for their own personal reasons. It's not necessarily something sinister. Even the best of intentions can go too far sometimes. It's sad to think that pop-culture and mainstream adoption of fleeting views that lack enough insight and depth can start slamming someone who they perhaps once admired. Sia doesn't belt out such powerful vocals loaded with intense emotion without depth of character based on raw life experiences. Why can't people recognize that? For a powerhouse of a performer to title her album 1000 Forms of Fear, perhaps people can work out for themselves how all this fits together with a bit of intelligence and empathy. Most teenagers go through a period where they oppose those close to them. It's just a natural part of growing up, out and becoming independent. If Sia has been overprotective of Maddie, then she is among many others who have done exactly the same thing regarding their own kids, or someone else they care about. If everyone's life played out on stage, would it then be such a unique thing worthy of some kind of public mauling? While some think life is all about coming up with a meme for clickbait, there's still people who actually live life and express something profound from that. I hope both Sia and Maddie get over all of this and even though their paths my go in different directions for a while or for however long, who hasn't been in that situation with someone they care about? No amount of putting someone down offers exaltation.

I think you got your facts wrong.
Trying sooo hard to report this video...
You are ridiculous.
As a trauma survivor I take offense to this video. This video is total click bait.
The real abuse in this story is from Maddie’s parents who voluntarily let their daughter get into any of these situations. Dance Moms is just filmed abuse of minors perpetrated by the teacher and the parents who knowingly bring their kids to be abused.
Her mom was a wimp on DM's and I was watching an old episode when the lady who was also a dance teacher and new cast member, had went to dinner with Maddie's mom and she told that lady about all the other dance moms private business but of course left out her own messy situation at that time? Her mom definitely should've said a big fat "NO!!!!" to that Shia video.

Every single time Maddie talks about her, she talks about her in a positive way. I do not see anything about Sia “controlling” her

I agree with you. I have never seen or heard anything negative about Sia from Maddie. I am just very happy that all of the girls are now safely away from the past with Dance Moms. I would cry hearing them being yelled at by Abby. The mom in me wanted to hug them and have a private, loud conversation with that woman.
It could easily be a situation where she’s being manipulated again by a grown adult
Same, so no one raised concerns about that horrible dance woman until she got busted by the government for money laundering n tax crimes , but this is smw concerning?! This channel has a really high production value, yet the content is the usual leftist SJW crazy bs stuff pushing out of the ass..
Because Maddie is being groomed, if anyone thinks it's OK for your child to cuddle with some random grown ass adult, there is something wrong with you. I don't care how much money they have that's just wrong. Also, saying that's her best friend, another red flag, grown ass people do not befriend children like that. Their relationship is completely inappropriate.
Y’all don’t understand- I connected with my 7th grade reading teacher and would stay after school with her to read manga and talk about anime and life. She’d drive me home. Later, she taught at my high school my senior year so she worked it so I could be a TA for her and went to her baby shower. It’s just a motherly love.
Same like I’m still in contact with my 2nd grade teacher till this day
Did you live with her, travel with her, sleep in the same bed, and did your teacher say she didn’t want to do any work unless you were in it too? Because what you’re describing is a healthy relationship. Sia & Maddie were not.
I remember we used to have big brother big sister programs and that’s all I thought about reading your comment. I believe Sia was just taking her under her wing.
Would you and other people say the same if your teacher was a male??? If not. Then the same should be for Sia...
Until it isn’t 🤨, you’ll see, mark my words. Run
wow, the title is really misleading. i highly doubt sia would intentionally do anything that would harm maddie physically or emotionally; so i’m going to continue to support both artists.
people are gross..always taking it to the extreme
You need to look up grooming
@@bubbleblow7461 I'm not stupid I know what that is ! I was groomed and abused as a kid...all I'm saying is it's the first people do ...take something that could be genuine and make it nefarious ! I doubt sia would do this in public
@@eliceoramirez4483 Oh my dear child, you have no clue. Try and grow up. It would take any reasonable adult 5 seconds to realize this is a completely creepy relationship
I suspect that whoever titled this video didn't have enough facts to justify a title that accusatory, but chose that title anyway in order to try to get a lot more views.
Not every “adult” that takes an interest in a young person is a creep. I think there are a lot of empathic souls out there that can and want to connect with younger people.
Dont say adult, say women cuz you would not say the same is Sia was a man...
Sorry, but Sia's relationship with Maddie was very creepy
You must be blind .or just a 👺
Nope lmao that lady groomed maddie
@@alilih3652 proof? If you have these evidences then sue her lmao
I followed Sia as a fan during her days in the group Zero 7. I watched Sia stop a concert to personally hand out water bottles to everyone in the front row and make security carry a girl who had collapsed in the audience at a gig in the Carling academy in Liverpool. She's a genuine selfless human. Don't believe this false news people.
A phedo can do that too, don’t be naive!
@@tescoprimark1299and what proof do you have? Do you know you can be taken to court for slander? Yeah you probably forgot that huh
@ElectricRaijin she didn't say Sia was a p* but only that a p* can act like a nice decent human being. They are not some monsters with horns. They just do disgusting things when the bedroom doors are closed. Many of them are acting very kind so people trust them with their kids. Actually some of them don't understand that they are hurting those kids. You were the one who made the connection to Sia instead of what it was, a flaw in your logic. That tells me a lot about what you really think because on some levels you must feel that this is not normal behaviour and people have good reasons for their doubts
@@tescoprimark1299 you're clearly drawn in by this click bait. I'll leave you to your peado paranoia
There’s a video of Sia in a store paying for everyone’s groceries and they don’t even know who she is and she acts like she’s just a regular person. I’ve never heard anything bad about Sia.
Her childhood was catastrophic and the biggest person to blame is her own mother. You parents make your decisions for you until 18 and they did nothing to keep her kids from harm.
💯
True and they didn’t even mention her mom. Is she still controlling her?
I agree. Her mother allowed that shit w the dance coach to go on. Sia saw her talent and pulled her away from that and now she is known as going on. Mothers job to protect and set the child up for their future.
I totally agree as mia mum too they all was mental at how abbey treated them but they wanted their kids famous
That was really odd how she wanted for her to , and made her dance -with that older man inside a cage in that video - that result doesn’t sit right w me as a mother - and imagining my self being that little girl - it’s sending out pedo vibes and always has given me the creeps
I watched Dance Mom’s only a couple of times and was so disgusted by the coach and the mothers! I can’t believe people were ok with the emotional abuse those girls went through constantly. I had five kids the same ages as the dancers. I could never imagine treating my kids that way, or let anyone else do that!
Agreed. Would they be so good though? I think there is a pattern probably. Like a lot of great singers or artist in general went through a traumatic eperience. Pain makes good art.
The dance coach was over the top because that is what people wanted to watch. Reality TV
The moms did not think that was okay please don’t make false allegations
@@N84Lyfeokay what kind of mother would put their young daughter on the TV show to begin with. No-good mother would ever put their daughter in a situation like that to begin with. It isn't okay to force Fame on your children they literally cannot consent. They were the adults they know how the world is they know that there were predators literally creeping on their daughters from behind the screens and in the audience. And they didn't give a crap about any of that so I wouldn't say a single one of them is a good mother. They could have done competition dance without being in a TV show and without putting their daughters faces and bodies all over TV as miners. I can't be the only one who's horrified by this right
@@WhitneyDahlin you do realize they were tricked into singing press releases which were actually 6 year contracts they couldn’t get out of them and they tried since the beginning of the dance moms. Also we can’t really say “what kind of mother” because you don’t know how you would react unless you’re actually in the position to begin with
Sia is a very kind person. It may seem like she is obsessive, but she is trying to protect Maddie from what happened to her on Dance Moms. Maddie is still friends with her, she is trying to do what she wants. Kinda like a bird leaving the nest. Also Sia gave her a gift, of freedom, of choice. Also, every time Maddie is talking about Sia, she always says super positive and kind things.
Didn’t it come out that Sia was in an abusive relationship with Shia during the time of Maddie costarring in the video. Sia and Maddie seem to have a good friendship and enjoy working together. It doesn’t feel so sinister and makes this video seem like a stretch to fill a narrative. Sia has spoken out about many terrible things that have happened to her in this industry and she saw some of herself in Maddie that she felt she could protect.
You need to learn what grooming is
Ohhhh that was the relationship Shia had?!! I met him awhile back when all that came out and I didn’t know until after I spent like an hour with him lol.
What? No shia and sia never dated??
@@gillifishwhat was he like? I “met” Leonardo DiCaprio and he seriously sucked. It was like he was on another planet in the worst way.
@@UptownLexi was he glued to his phone?
Sia had nothing but the best in mind for her, and it was all with her and her parents approval, even the contreversial video.
It's art people and it tells a story.
Sia did find a way to express herself after writing hit songs for other artists for years and to bring what she wanted to the stage.
Chill out. There are actually good people with good intentions out there
Congratulations Maddie. When you were on Dance Moms I wanted nothing more than to see you escape Abby. Follow your dreams you deserve a great life!
My daughters will be happy to learn that Maddy is free from Abby Milker. Thank God. I wonder how her mom is doing, allowing this level of abuse go on so long. I guess being the fav in her class trumps all judgements ❤
where does it say she regrets trusting SIA... clickbait much.
So true
Sounds like a lot of people are making stuff up about what's going on between those two. Jumping to a lotcof conclusions based on very little. 👎👎
Cracks me up people think they know what's going on in other people's lives.
THANK YOU someone says it finally
They haven't even tried to give the illusion of goof information in this video, they're straight up reaching, & jumping to conclusions in an obvious way. It's disappointing how many commenters haven't picked it up when it's so obvious to anyone with even a basic level of comprehension.
@@aussiejubes
Exactly! Controversy sells!!!
The only thing that's 100% True in this story is that Maddie's former dance coach IS a Crazy, Abusive, Narcissistic woman who is living out her own repressed issues of whatever she went through in her own childhood, & her subsequent own self hatred.
As is said, "hurt people, hurt people".
@@Anne_Onymous i 5:53
I don’t see anything wrong. SIA loves Maddie, it seems very maternal. Maddie always talks about about her in a good way, people love to turn kindness into evil
Looks that way
Classic. People just want attention using this kind of title. More views more money you know.
Then y would she make her wrestle a man in a cage in just a bodysuit? 😮😢 Freaky
I did not see Sia exploiting Maddie. Sia has always been a bit quirky. I have been a fan of Sia since 1997 and she is awesome in concert and yes quirky hehe. I think she helped Maddie be even more successful. I think the Title to this is so misleading about Sia. Sia is so open, how could she not be trusted!!!
There are several things out of context here, first of all, Sia has always been a public advocate for human rights and children. It is far fetched to think that she would imprison Maddie to be with her, both have accompanied each other personally and professionally in their lives, even just a few months ago they performed at Coachella with Labrinth to perform Thunderclouds...
Not the biggest fan of Maddie BUT was Dakota Fanning autistic? Was Sean Penn mentally disabled? How about Leonardo DiCaprio? All have played people with disabilities.
People apparently have issues with that too now. Because EVERYTHING is offensive, oppressive, and revolves around identity labels these days. Dare to question or disagree, you'll be called an "able-ist" and "bigot" 🤷♀️
@@Anne_Onymous isn’t that the bloody truth!! Well said!
Yes exactly Actors have been portraying all types of people & disabilities for years. Wasn’t there an actress who played Anne Keillor, who of course in real life Anne was deaf, dumb and blind?
It’s becoming ridiculous these days. I’m not Maddies biggest fan either, but although I didn’t like the movie I did think she did an incredible job acting in it.
The wokeness is getting out of control. Glad I’m an aging gen x and won’t be here all that much longer 😂
@@toribern816 have to totally agree with you on that.
I was impressed by Maddie's acting and dancing. This poor girl has always been under so much pressure.
I wish everybody would just back off of Maddie and let Maddie be happy and let Maddie do what Maddie wants to do for herself the adults need a back off of her she's just a child
As someone on the spectrum who grew up on stage and as a skater (Im Also a singer songwriter and mum of 4 with 2 on the spectrum) I have to say this comment of someone on the spectrum playing the part is not impossible but near dam it, because remembering lines and confidence is a huge issue and routine of dance why as a skater I had 2 routines for comps for years. I even struggle to learn my own songs even tho I wrote them!! I think she should not have to apologize for that. People without health issues play parts all the time, like forest gump, rain man and even the guy who played Stephen hawking. People just love to make unnecessary dramas instead of real critiques of someone's work and talents... Haters going to hate I guess
@@Kellythistleton Chloe Hayden is playing the character of Quinni in the reboot of Heartbreak High. Daryl Hannah has had a great film career and has been working consistently since 1981 and is still working.
Just because someone is autistic doesn't mean that they can't do it. Sia wrote the part for Maddie, it didn't occur to her to look for someone autistic, the same way as Sia thought that the appropriate research for Maddie to play the part was to watch 'What's Eating Gilbert Grape' and TH-cam channels that show autistic children having meltdowns. She didn't feel it was necessary for Maddie to actually talk to any autistic people so that she would understand why autistic people do the things that they do and what leads up to meltdowns.
This video really made me feel like "Yes queen, give us nothing" 🤷🏽♀️
Hahaha hah
What we knew before what we knew after..
Maybe less after this video.

Though please don't do films. Stick to what you know please
@@frankieseward8667

Maddie, the most important things in life are to never let yourself down. Don't worry about what nobody else thinks. You are an excellent dancer.
I personally think Sia is an amazing person and so is Maddie, Maddie may have been a target for a lot of people but imo Sia protected her so i do not think Sia was ever "controlling" Maddie just because she knew how much Maddie deserved and how good she is at acting and dancing. So pushing someone to show there talents and what they can do isnt always a bad thing! Xoxo
"She's an amazing human" Yep a human you have never had an actual conversation with. You sound creepy.
Abby ain't nothing but an abusive narcissistic predator. I hope Maddie is more educated about toxic people now. This is really concerning now.
Where are her parents? Or are they just as abusive?
Her dad is out of the picture but her mom will do anything and everything to exploit Maddie for the benefit of money/fame/success.
@@Ash0leigh I am not 100% sure about the Sia situation but the producers if dance moms would threaten the moms that if they left the show/studio they would be sued for everything they owned and their daughters names would be ruined in the dance community leaving the moms in fear so they stayed. When Maddie was offered the opportunity with Sia her mom knew that even if she was sued and abby talked poorly about her daughter Maddie would still have a chance to continue her career in dance.
$$$s
I’m giving respect to that guy that gave Maddie a hug backstage when she forgot her solo 👏👏
You can’t even imagine how hard it must be for the film crew etc to watch the horrors and not intervene. I’m sure some of them are sweet souls who are just doing their job and realise DM was bordering on child abuse

You people need to stop. Sia is a beautiful person who's trying to take care of another vulnerable person. Creeps 🤦🏻♂️
“Well she’s 40 and you’re 14”
Me: *well my mom is 52 and I’m 13 and she’s the best most trustworthy person of all time so-*
She’s being a mother and a friend! Nothing more. She has taken on the role of a care giver, and hasn’t walked away from that responsibility! That is something to be respected, not scorned.
So many adults have a creepy obsession with Maddie. Sia and Abby aren’t that different, Sia is just nicer about it so it doesn’t seem so obvious. Sia manipulating Maddie into doing Music after begging her not to reminds me of when Abby made Maddie kiss Gino for a dance. Both made her do humiliating things in front of thousands of people. Sia put a ton of pressure on Maddie like Abby did too. Poor girl :(
It sounds to me she got all these negative emotions from whoever her coach was. That's a lot of pressure and negativity to put on such a young girl. It's no wonder she questions herself or if someone likes her. This person was constantly criticizing her
Is anyone else kinda pissed at the little boy and his coach for not bailing on the kiss when they saw how uncomfortable that made her? How did none of the adults in the room not say “this gimmicky little stunt probably isn’t worth lightly traumatizing an 11yo girl” That was not too early to teach the boy respect for boundaries
Ya
Sexual harrasment...forcing an 11 year old to kiss a boy?
Seriously. That dance coach woman is sick and should be on a list.
It baffles me how all these random people online criticize Sia and Maddie's relationship despite never having met either of them and knowing nothing about their personal lives. Maddie has had nothing but good things to say about Sia and Maddie is an adult now, she can do whatever she wants to do.
So if you’re concerned about an adult’s relationship with a traumatised child, you should mind your own business because you don’t know for sure? Sounds dangerous.
@@fabplays6559 traumatized children should be able to live a normal life.
@@fabplays6559 Yes you should mind your own business if you don't know for sure IF THEY ARE CELEBRITIES FAR FROM YOUR LIFE. That's very different from someone near you, someone you can try to help, or try to learn more about their situation in the first place. Being concerned about Sia's relationship with Maddie is a bit like being concerned that Zeus harmed some farm girl. We have no proximity to the legend.
Maddie represented Sia’s inner child (for Sia)
I just came across this video, I don't know much about this situation, but I think Sia is trying to protect Maddie from the pedos in the industry. I know about the incident with Sia and Miramax CEO Harvey Weinstein... I think Sia was trying to bring a message across, but maybe Sia was pushing a little too hard. I think maybe Sia just needed some assistance to kinda keep things levelled, maybe she was stressed, hope everything is sorted now.
She's protecting her from pedo's while sleeping in the same bed as a minor? She groomed her
I honestly believe Sia has Maddie's interests in mind, maybe overly protective, but Sia knows how predatory the celebrity scene is. I read that she stopped Maddie from going on a private plane with Harvey Weinstein for an audition in N.Y C....
Maddie did not want to take on the role of Music at first but Sia told her that everything was going to be fine. I am tired of the adults in her life exploiting her and I also found it weird that Sia refuses to do anything without Maddie.
it was a flop..the world did not end
😂😂😂😂
@@eliceoramirez4483 I am not surprised that it flopped because it was disrespectful of Sia to cast maddie as an austic girl knowing that maddie, for one didn't want to do it and didn't cast an actual austic person to play the role. If she really wanted to do a movie and cast maddie she could've done something else, like with mental health but because austim was a major conversation at the time she just had to do it.
She was straight up ableist and biased ( which she admitted that she planning to cast maddie in the first place).
@@daydreaminavenue well I'm gay and I take no offense to straight men playing a game man I.e brrokeback mountain call me by your name. ..both beautiful films...I get irritated when we're lovable clown bff's...I saw the movie. Even if they'd hired a person with autism. The movie was just awful
@@eliceoramirez4483 i'm not autistic but i did some research about it before watching the movie and it was clear to me that she didn't care about the community at all.
First of all, the restraint scenes ( which she promised that she would remove ) was disgusting kids have died during restraints and for years people in the autism spectrum have spoken out about the cruelty and dangers of it. I am not surprised of how severely ableist the movie was because Sia collaborated with Autism Speaks, an organization known for treating autistic children as mistakes.
It doesn’t feel like Sia had bad intentions for Maddie. It honestly seems like Sia is a mother figure for her
I think it started put good. But once Sia was saying I csnt do a production with out her. It was getting creepy
🤦♀️
@@hinatahyuuga120 true that seemed a bit weird. I’m gonna play devil’s advocate real quick, something we have to remember is that could’ve been taken out of context. But I also can’t deny that it’s weird or creepy either way tho
@@iright36 Nah that interview was on an Australian show 'The Project', the full clip is that Sia says that Maddie is her muse and she can't/doesn't want to create art if it doesn't contain Maddie. She also said that she felt protective of Maddie and wanted to keep her safe and the best way that she could think of to do that is to keep creating projects for Maddie.
Sounds great on the surface, but where in there is Maddie's wants and needs. To me it sounds like Sia is extremely attached to Maddie and was doing things to make sure Maddie had a reason to stay around.
Maddie needed a strong female role model who was willing to take her in & care for her. And; guess what? Sia did it! And, not only did Sia step up and do it, she did it with grace, dignity, and love. She even brought Maddie’s career to new places and saved her from a life that would have scarred her (even more than it already had) with severe PTSD, anxiety, and severe depression. So oh yea, let’s all attack Sia! SMH. There is real abuse of little girls going on all around you, no matter where you are! You should join your nearest non-profit that fights trafficking and/or child abuse and let Maddie & Sia shine like the diamonds they are!!!!! 🦄🦄💋💋💎💎💚💚☮️☮️
It’s disturbing seeing the groomer defenders in this comment section. Y’all need to be on a watchlist
I can’t believe that this kind of abuse was ever even allowed and then call it entertainment!
She saved her. She needs her. 24 hour security. Can’t do anything without her…
The enemy comes disguised as an angel of light or a savior, and it’s so easy to be deceived when you are vulnerable. I pray she is not in the grips of destruction anymore!
I don’t respect any of the moms from Dance Moms because if that cow talked to my daughter that way I would be wearing an orange jumpsuit
so people started to bully her about acting autism. Get out of here she was acting. So many actors played a role of mental illness stop bullying

I hope that MZ gets the help that she needs to create safe spaces for herself mentally and physically now that she is older.
having a child dance to chandelier which is about getting drunk… is pretty damn bad….
I’ve always felt so bad how people treated this girl. She was a cute sweet child and adults took advantage of that. Terrible. Good for you Maddie
Sia is litterally completely fine around Maddie. Like, Just because she was "topless"... She's a girl too!
yeah...and priests and alter boys, are the same sex, too!
Get away from these control freaks and exploiters maddie. Don’t be manipulated or taken advantage of by an older person ever again. You got this
It actually cracks me up how they have nothing legible against sia... they all just make up fish hooks about her, with artificial tackle, all flash and no substance.
I'm sorry but featuring little girls looking naked with grown men is just weird and sick especially in today's world
Sia is an artist, and I can understand why she was so impressed with Maddie's talent. It's all for art. The connection between them was about art. I think Sia was (or is) a Maddie's fan, and I find it beautiful. Yes, children can have grown-up fans, or vice versa, and there's nothing wrong about it.
If this relationship is as damaging as the video claims (I’m not sure if it actually is,) her mother needs to be held accountable as well, this all started with her as a minor.
I love you, Sia. People will always hate the better in others, embrace it! We are only humans
I love Sia and i Love Maddie, people are just looking for sensation while there is nothing to find ...
Interesting that Sia made no attempt to "save" any of the less talented, prominent dancers at the studio, only the one she could profit off of.
I used to have a baby sitter who would punish me If I cried but allowed her grandkids to torture Me all summer long

I agree 💯
I hope Maddie got counseling after this. What Abby and Sia did to her was so wrong. 💔
Yes 💯
I think Sia should sue the hell out of you people for defamation.
Dance Mom was hard to watch. It was disturbing and abusive for those young impressionable young girls. It reminded me of some adults around me growing up who were narcissistic and abusive.
We can only learn from this earth plane we all live in.
Good for Maddie who’s slowly evolving into being her truest self by letting go of the need to please others. ❤
When any adult takes such obsessive interest in an unrelated child and has such close unsupervised access to that child, it is disturbing. The fact that it's in the heart of the music/ entertainment industry where there is such a mix of power, money and opportunity just adds further alarm bells. Celebrities are often trusted because we think we somehow know them and they are often loved and adored. But they are just people. Just as messed up as anyone else...maybe more so.
I blame everyone who controlled the original Dance Moms Girls, including Sia. I liked "Chandler" but hated the one that Maddie danced with Shia LaBeouf, or whatever his last name is. Why would any mother like Melissa put her child in that position? Because she was greedy. She claims that she was doing it for Maddie and Makenzie, but no. I also blame Abby for being the mean tyrant she was, and still is. She wants to reboot the show with the same producers who started this whole shit (pardon my language) in the first place.
It is one of the reasons why Makenzie refuses to dance. Same with Brooke and Paige. I have seen all of their stories on YT. I do not blame them. Abby has ruined it for all of them, as well as the producers of that monster of a reality show. I hope one day that these girls have the audacity to sue them, and yes, I have seen all seven seasons, but refused to see the eighth, and hope they never have a ninth.
I do not like the way this industry takes advantage of children. They work long hours, and all of these "monsters", including these parents, think about is money. Let a child be a child. If they make a mistake, correct them in the right way, not by yelling, but by showing them they care.
This is one of the reasons child entertainers become drug addicts, stressed out, alcoholics, afraid of their own shadows, or in therapy. Any time someone like Sia is obsessed with your child, run away, and take your child with you.
If you are a parent and decide to put your child into show business, do it for the child, have a very good lawyer, in fact, 2-3 lawyers, a child advocate in case you lose all your senses when you see how much your child will be making, have one working parent in a normal job if you are two-parent family, so that you can have backup money when the child decides to quit, and never make the child the bread winner of the family. And most important, let then be children and have fun and love them unconditionally.
Their "friendship" or however u would call a relationship between a 40 yr old and a 14yr back then was extremely weird. The poor girl even lived with her. Where on earth were her parents?! It's just not normal.
She was abused all right, but the source is her mom who was so desperate to be on tv that she stood by and watched the abuse take place.
Shame on you for making a click bait title. The young lady in the clip seem to not have anything negative to say about Sia. I'm not really a fan of either. At the time the video came out I mean of course it was controversial. But I think that's also what sells music and makes things popular. I don't think Sia has anything malicious or heinous regarding the dancer. It sounds more like an aunt and niece very close relationship.
I don't know how the mums of that show didn't take the kids out of the company Abbey shouldn't have been alowed to work with kids
This video is exactly what is wrong with the world. No evidence of any wrong doing just vile suggestion an suspicion to create rumours that are so disgusting they can ruin lives.
I fully agree
Yea people are just saying things with no evidence, it's not like everyone knows Sia and Maddie personally and can actually accuse them of such things.
I'm so sorry I thought this was good TV. Never realised it caused so much pain.
1:11 bro she was so scared, the whole show is just sick
Just looking st the thumbnail….it’s definitely a clickbait….you should be ashamed of yourself trying to jump to conclusions Sia is maddies godmom and maddie,her boyfriend and her sister mackenzie still live and hangout with sia to this date!
A very Beautiful Woman. I hope she found her peace and freadom now.
Come on, this is so untrue, so disrespectful, so absurd and sad that Media create narratives like that accusing such a wonderful Human Beeing as Sia to make audience and money! SHAME ON YOU!
People that watch this and don't know well Sia&Maddie's relation should looking for and will see that all this is BS and lie!
Sia was always and still like a mother for Maddie and thanks to Sia she could develop her talent and carrier and have all the success she have!
Respect for SIA AND MADDIE ZIEGLER!
Love you Sia ❤❤❤
You people defending Sia to the death are not understanding exactly why. First, nobody is 'making anything up' as you suggested. Many people found both of those videos questionable, and as far as 'Music' is concerned, she clearly did not research enough, and also admitted Maddie being reluctant to do it - Sia also said she was crying the first day, which normally could have been anything, but Maddie was already an experienced performer. If she was 'so protective' of her, she could perform the simple task of making sure Shia's hygiene wasn't a problem during the shoot of 'Elastic Heart? The interaction was questionable enough - but with a smelly, uncouth older man? The snuggling wasn't the worst thing, but a little creepy to some people. Sia also blatantly admitted she would never work on another project without Maddie - that too, is a little concerning. Why does Maddie have to be in EVERYTHING she does? Bought her a new car? She's like her mom? 24 hour security? Why can't her mom do that? You know, Abby exploited Maddie for a long time. Sia's behavior is very questionable, not necessarily bad, or evil. You can't blame people for caring! No one is saying anything bad about Maddie. NO one really has anything to gain because they feel these adults - all of them - are behaving irresponsibly - back then, anyway - around Maddie. Let's say, that one day, Maddie does admit her relationship with Sia wasn't all she said it was, and Sia was indeed manipulative and creepy towards her and so forth. I doubt many people would celebrate the news with unrestrained glee - it be a sad day. There would be no 'winning' anything. So most people suspicious of Sia and her motives are not doing anything wrong, either. I myself was just starting to like her. 'Snowman' is one of the most powerful songs I ever heard. I don't want to hate or think badly of her at all!! That would suck! The concern is for young, underage children, especially girls(I think). There are emerging stories all the time of such alleged bad behaviors. We have to be sure, yes. If Maddie is okay with it in the end, so be it. But me, I am disgusted with everything I've heard, and seen, of not just Sia, but everything. Her MOTHER should have provided those things in the first place, not some strange adult that Maddie herself admitted she barely knew despite being a celebrity herself.
I miss being able to see the like-dislike ratios - especially on bullshit videos like this, where I’m sure it got absolutely smashed.
Never trust anyone in Hollywood
Sia haters trying to bring her down. No you can't bring her down.
I love that video with shia and Maddie, it's all about perspective and reality. I heard it's a representation of dias relationship with her father, who had bipolar disorder. I can relate and it touched me.
Maddie slept in the bed with Sia and nobody blinks an eye, but Michael Jackson does it and he’s a predator. It’s the same thing
Their relationship is weird, people saying sia wouldn’t do that , do y’all know her ? And saying she isn’t complaining, people who are being manipulated don’t complain. Why does she feel the need to be so clingy to her ? Why is she topless in from of a 14 year old . Why aren’t you asking yourselves this question. Their relationship is so weird and not normal
So where is the controversy exactly? This is why people hate the media
All I'm gonna say is if Maddie says the experience was traumatic then it was, but if she is ok with the things that she agreed to do when she becomes older than it is what it is. And even if she was traumatized but still cares ab sia and loves her than that's her own business entirely. Bottom line
Sia & Matty both have addictive personalitys. Matty will always be attracted to people that are hard to please. Matty wants to live up to their high exspectations of her & by doing so she creats a lot of drama, CRYING, acting over worked, on the edge of colaping. Then she pulls it all off & she gets the praise of the narcissis she loves working for. Matty how did you get this way?
Im sorry but when a grown woman says she cant think of making art without a teenage girl, thats a little weird. A bit obsessive
that's a red flag too
Sounds like sia was feircly protecting her because of her past and what she had been through. This girl has not said anything bad about her. She helped her grow as a person by the sounds of this
Anyone, male or female, that shows such intense interest in a child that isn't theirs is a massive red flag
Sometimes people can become over-protective for their own personal reasons. It's not necessarily something sinister. Even the best of intentions can go too far sometimes. It's sad to think that pop-culture and mainstream adoption of fleeting views that lack enough insight and depth can start slamming someone who they perhaps once admired. Sia doesn't belt out such powerful vocals loaded with intense emotion without depth of character based on raw life experiences. Why can't people recognize that? For a powerhouse of a performer to title her album 1000 Forms of Fear, perhaps people can work out for themselves how all this fits together with a bit of intelligence and empathy. Most teenagers go through a period where they oppose those close to them. It's just a natural part of growing up, out and becoming independent. If Sia has been overprotective of Maddie, then she is among many others who have done exactly the same thing regarding their own kids, or someone else they care about. If everyone's life played out on stage, would it then be such a unique thing worthy of some kind of public mauling? While some think life is all about coming up with a meme for clickbait, there's still people who actually live life and express something profound from that. I hope both Sia and Maddie get over all of this and even though their paths my go in different directions for a while or for however long, who hasn't been in that situation with someone they care about? No amount of putting someone down offers exaltation.
If we put ominous music in the background do you Think we can manipulate our viewers..... well d*** i* I'm gonna try.😂😂😂😂
Her parent should have saved her not someone that didn’t know
I’m sorry sia and Abby used this child! Two probably groomed her! Any kids that leaves the stage screaming and in fear that’s wrong
yes that's a big flag no matter what everyone around says
Maddie has grown into a beautiful young lady
