Pop star JoJo Siwa will compete as part of the first same-sex pairing on “Dancing With the Stars” for the show’s upcoming 30th season.

Lifetime has pulled the plug on Abby Lee Miller's new reality show, Abbys Virtual Dance Off. Additionally, Miller will not be returning to Dance Moms if the show is renewed for a ninth season, according to EW, who was first to report the news. Smith saw the disingenuous post, and took to her own Instagram to call Miller out for her previous actions. I couldn't think of a more perfect day to address my experience with Abby Lee Miller. But what I'm not going to have happen is have this racist person have any part of my daughter's life."

The 53-year-old reality star took to Instagram on Thursday to respond to Adriana Smith, who appeared on Dance Moms with her daughter, Kamryn, accusing her of being a "closet racist." "To Kamryn, Adriana, and anyone else I've hurt, I am truly sorry." Miller went on to note that she feels racism can stem from "ignorance" in addition to hate. Prior to Miller's apology, Adriana took to social media to share her experience with the Dance Moms star. But what I'm not going to have happen is have this racist person have any part of my daughter's life as of this moment," she said of her decision to leave Dance Moms.
