Maddie Ziegler news: Celebrity dancer addicted to 'The Sims'

It seems actress, dancer, and model, Maddie Ziegler has found a way to squeeze in some of her favorite hobbies despite her busy lifestyle. One of those hobbies is playing the popular video game "The Sims," presumably the latest one "Sims 4."

Apart from watching a couple of hit Netflix series, "Stranger Things" and "Riverdale," the 15-year-old celebrity is also obsessed with playing "The Sims." Website J-14 has revealed that the actress is a big enthusiast of the simulation video game which gives players a lot of freedom and ways to recreate their lives or someone else's.

Apparently, Maddie enjoys the game since it gives her a way to express her own creativity and individuality, which in itself is an empowering feature of the game. She also enjoys it as it gives her a respite from her hectic and stressful life. Although she is now addicted to the game, Maddie did admit that it was her little sister, Mackenzie, who first introduced her to "Sims."

"I am busy all the time, but usually when I come home from work or I do have a day off. All I do – me and my sister are literally hang out in my room and play Sims. No joke. We were just playing it last night. I am so obsessed with Sims. And every second I have off, that's what I'm playing. When the Sims came to me and asked me to do this collaboration, I freaked out and my sister was so jealous of me," said Maddie in an interview, referring to an Instagram video post where she advertised the game by holding up a model of her in-game Sim.

Maddie then went on to say that she would often recreate herself and her friends in "The Sims," where she would build a big house and put herself and all her friends in it.

Maddie is best known for her appearance in Lifetime's reality show "Dance Moms" from 2011 to 2016, and she was also the lead dancer in Sia's music video for "Chandelier."
