'Dance Moms' season 7 spoilers: latest competition focuses on newcomers

Filming for the sixth episode of "Dance Moms" season 7 has been completed. For this episode, the Abby Lee Dance Company (ALDC) competed at the Dream Dance Challenge in Panorama City.

This competition saw the newcomers shine once again. Camryn Bridges performed what is being reported as a Contemporary Jazz routine titled "Endangered Species," which placed second in the teen division.

This episode of "Dance Moms" season 7 will also see Maesi Caes in a solo performance for the first time. However, her Jazz routine for "It's Britney, Baby" did not place.

Caes, however, helped the group win first place in pre-teen division and overall with their Contemporary performance titled "Clowning Around."

The team, which included Caes, Bridges, Kalani Hilliker, Brynn Rumfallo, Kendall Vertes, Nia Sioux, and minis Elliana Walmsley and Lilliana Ketchman, dressed up as terrifying clowns for the spooky performance.

The routine, which fans will see in full in "Dance Moms" season 7, was inspired by the clown phenomenon that is sweeping some parts of the United States and other areas where people wear clown costumes.

With their outfits adding to the horror factor, they terrorize people by luring them to the woods, attacking them or just downright scaring them.

Is it Halloween yet?

For this routine, a crew member reportedly dressed as a clown and scared the "Dance Moms" season 7 cast members. Even dance coach Abby Lee Miller was in on the fun and donned a red nose.

Meanwhile, "Dance Moms" season 7 episode 6 will also see Sioux do a winning Contemporary performance for "How to Get Away with Murder," which landed first in both teen division and overall.

As expected, Jojo Siwa is not in the episode, and fans should not expect her to be on the show anymore as she reportedly quit. The next episode of "Dance Moms" season 6 titled "Jojo is A No-Show" should provide some answers.

Some of the girls did meet up with Siwa after the Dream Dance Challenge where they hung out at the Halloween Horror Night at the Universal Studios.

"Dance Moms" season 7 premieres next year on Lifetime.
