The programme focuses on the early careers of the children that are enrolled in the Abby Lee Dance Company in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. 

Maddie will soon be leaving the show, however, as the current sixth season will be her last having announced that she will not be signing on for any more seasons of the show.

Sia noticed Maddie on the programme and tweeted her to ask if she would appear in one of her videos, introducing talented Maddie to a far wider audience.

The young star then broke out on the scene as she starred in the 40-year-old Aussie hitmaker's music video for Chandelier, which was released in 2014.
