"Dance Moms" stars Abby Lee Miller, Maddie Ziegler and other cast members of the Lifetime series were reportedly hacked. TMZ has word that hackers were able to take control of the stars' email, Paypal and iCloud accounts.
The hackers, who were discovered to be a group of four underage girls dubbed by the FBI as the Mean Girls, also posted their victims' information online, including their contact numbers. This resulted to a surge of messages from fans.
TMZ reports that "Dance Moms" staple and Maddie's younger sister, Mackenzie, woke up to over 2000 messages after her contact information was leaked by the hackers. To add insult to the injury, the hacking was done more than once.
Months back, the reality stars were also hacked by people who are believed to be from the same group. However, even with a private investigator on the job, the hackers virtually left no mark that could help trace and reveal their identity.
In other "Dance Moms" news, Maddie has a new job on the set of the Lifetime series. Apart from dancing her heart out and helping Abby Lee Dance Crew take home awards and trophies, the star will also be a makeup artist for her fellow dancers.
Maddie revealed to Fashionista that she started getting into makeup when she decided to put her eyelashes on without the help of her mom, who she said always does it wrong.
"And then my sister loved it, so I started doing her makeup," she said. "And then from there, now I do my friends' makeup for competition."
It is not a secret that Maddie missed a lot of the initial episodes of "Dance Moms" season 6. But this is not the worst news for fans of the "Chandelier" dancer. Miller's so-called star student is believed to be quitting the show after the upcoming season. Much to the disappointment of some fans, her last run gives her the least exposure.
