Notorious dance instructor Abby Lee Miller had an instinct for choreography from a young age… not so much for finances. Melissa takes the lead in today’s story, which features the complicated life of Abby Lee Miller and her role on Lifetime’s Dance Moms. Bankruptcy, Assault, Shantes, oh my! Grab some sour patch kids and listen to this story which will surely have you swinging from the chandelier.
