A biography for Maddie Zieglerhasn’t been written yet.
“I dance. I don't really do anything else.”
“I really want to keep modelling, but it's not my number one goal in life. But it's so fun. I love doing it; it's just that - it's not like I just want to be a model when I'm older.”
“When I'm not dancing, I usually just like to keep it comfy. Even if I'm just going to dinner, I'll wear jeans or something, but if I'm not dancing, I usually just have a comfy outfit on.”
“Before I go to bed, I brush my teeth and take off all my makeup. I like to use Neutrogena's makeup remover wipes.”
“I like Sprite a lot, but I try not to drink it. My mom doesn't want me to drink Sprite because it's unhealthy. So she always has me drink water, but it's hard not to!”
“You have to stay in shape for dance. I don't want to be too skinny, but I don't want to be overweight. I want to be in the middle.”
“I'd love to be on scripted TV shows and movies, but not just one - I want to be in a lot of them! I'd also love to sing and possibly be on Broadway. I want to do it all.”
“Dance has definitely made me a better role model.When I'm performing, I'm always thinking about my face and my look. I used to have a much harder time with it.”
“For filming, we have to wear a lot more makeup than we usually would. At night, I have to go home and take off all the makeup and take my hair out from my bun and just get out of the dancewear and everything.”
“It's hard to do a reality show when there's so much crying and drama.”
“I love tap!”
“Every time I do a talk show or something, I'll be like, 'I'm doing 'Chandelier,' right?' and they're like, 'No, you're doing a skit and three dances.' It's different every time. I never really know what I'm doing until the day before.”
“I'm a beauty guru, I just love all of that stuff. We have a makeup artist for 'Dance Moms' that touches us up and stuff, but I love doing my own makeup; sometimes I do my friends', too. My favorite is doing eye shadow and eyeliner.”
“I definitely like wearing leotards.”
“I'd love to do something where I can act and dance at the same time, like on Broadway or in movies.”
“My dance teacher will show me pictures of girls who are rhythmic gymnasts, and they are super skinny. But I don't want to be too skinny. I think that looks a little gross when you are dancing. You don't want to be a scrawny, bony thing.”
“I particularly want more acting. I've been auditioning a lot, and I definitely want to act.”
“I like Sam Smith and Taylor Swift. I love pop music, but I also like Sam Smith's slow songs. That would be more to dance to. I think dancers like different genres of music, compared to just a regular person.”
“I don't feel that normal anymore because I get recognised, even when I'm just trying to have fun or going to get ice cream with my friends.”
“I think it's funny when people, they try to imitate the 'Chandelier' video. I think it's hilarious.”
