Good morning, Gasmii. Hope your post-Valentine’s day hangover is not too bad. Someday I will stop using prosecco as a substitute for love, but until then I have to live with the consequences. Thank god for Revive.

I would like to congratulate Malachy the Pekingnese for winning the Westminster dog show.

Jill is still  trying to figure out how to wear this

 He is no Uno, but… nobody is.

Sigh.

Okay, from one set of bitches to another. This week’s Dance Moms was awesome. Mackenzie was on top of the pyramid and Paige won her division! Finally, Paige’s silent desperate struggle for relevance is over.

Yay!

The girls are set to go to Dance Explosion in Secaucus, NJ but it is “suddenly” canceled at the last minute allegedly due to not enough people signing up. The conspiracy theorist in me thinks it may have more to do with them not wanting TV cameras there, but I have no proof and it would take too much effort to investigate. (But perhaps I will for the full recap).

After scrambling, they find a competition in Clute, Texas, which turns out to be in a school gymnasium with a death trap floor.

Every girl will be doing a solo this week and Jabby puts the moms in charge of putting together their costumes. The only rule is that the costume should not have been worn on stage before. So naturally Jill uses a costume that Kendall wore when she was with another studio. She and Jabby fight and Jill threatens to take her fur vests and go home.

Maddie slips on the evil floor and hurts her hip, but she is okay, although there is a lot of slow motion drama.

Crazy Cathy is back, but sadly, only for a cameo. Peyton auditions to be on “Team Apples” and makes it, but isn’t too thrilled. Leslie shows up to berate Cathy and Cathy sends her on her way. This, I feel, is a huge missed opportunity. How awesome would a Cathy-Leslie spin-off be?

Oh, and we learn an interesting tidbit from Christi, that the moms have to sign some kind of contract with Abby Lee Studios for a year and if they break it, they have to pay $100,000? This definitely deserves some further investigation. (Although, if that is the case, why wasn’t it mentioned when Brooke was making her foray into cheerleading?)

Next week: Jill yells. Also, water is wet.

That’s it for now. Stay tuned for the full ‘cap, which will be up in a couple of days. If you need more Dance Moms immediately, you can re-read last week’s recap here.

Thanks for reading and have a great day.

xoxo,

    I was so happy for Paige. Here’s hoping she makes it to the top of the stupid pyramid. Although, I think maddie may have a break down soon if she’s back up top.

    Great recap! The full versions of the dances are on youtube, they made the fall way more dramatic than it actually was, she just got up and kept going after she fell. She may have bruised her tailbone (which hurts) but they made it way more dramatic for the show.

    Paige still won’t be at the top of the ppyramid. It’ll be Maddie…for surviving her fall.

    I think they said somethingn like the contract specified you only got fined and blackballed if you not only quit but tried to join another dance studio within some period of time? (In which case I guess it would not have applied to school cheerleading.) But I might have heard wrong, I did miss part of what was said. Does anybody know just what was said about that contract?

    I seriously doubt the ability to enforce a contract like that.

    From the previews I saw it looked like Paige really was high energy and looked like she was just having a good time and that probably contributed to her winning. Sometimes the judges just want to see you having fun as compared to being perfect.

    Up to now, Kelly, Christi and Holly have all said that they would leave the studio if their kids didn’t love it so much. All of a sudden we hear that there’s this “contract” keeping them there? Give me a break.

    I am glad Maddie was not seriously hurt. She was a trooper to not miss a beat and just keep on going with her dance. Good for her.

    Maddie won third in her age division, Paige and Chloe were first and second in theirs, and Brooke was third in hers. I’m surprised they didn’t show Maddie winning so they could play up a triumphing over adversity angle or something.

    How did Mackenzie do? Her solo looked super cute. I watched all those youtube videos of the girls performing. I think Paige was the best with Chloe in second. Which apparently the judges agreed.
