MADDIE Ziegler has become a household name as one of today's most talented performers since leaving Dance Moms midway through the show's sixth season in 2016.
The Lifetime show helped her land a role in Sia's 2014 Chandelier music video and forged a friendship with the Australian singer, who cast Maddie in her film Music.
Who is Maddie Ziegler?
Born Madison Nicole Ziegler, she is an American dancer, actress, author, and model.
Maddie, 19, was initially known for appearing on Dance Moms, a Lifetime reality TV show, from the age of 8 in 2011 until age 13 in 2016.
But her claim to fame came in 2014, when she starred in a series of music videos by Sia, starting with Chandelier that year and Elastic Heart in 2015, both of which have amassed more than five billion views on YouTube.
After leaving Dance Moms midway through Season 6 in 2016, she toured with Sia in North America and Australia in 2016 and 2017.

She is also continuing her acting career, with the recent release of her film The Fallout.

The film follows two teenage girls – Vada Cavell and Mia Reed – as they navigate their life and friendship after a school shooting.
Their relationships with her family and friends and her perspective on the world are forever changed after the shooting.

In supporting parts, the film features Shailene Woodley, Julie Bowen, John Ortiz, Niles Fitch, and Will Ropp.
