On Tuesday, Miller revealed that she purposely shames her students in order to push them harder during their dance lessons. "Nobody is going to embarrass them and upset them more than I am," she said. "I'll do it first, and I'll do it right! But I correct and humiliate them in a private lesson inside my studio. I know just how to push a kid's buttons to get the results I want."

The 47-year-old dance instructor also adds that she mocks her students whenever she feels like they're not "working hard enough."

"It's my job to teach them a lesson," Miller said. "I call out each student, making her perform a group routine by herself in front of her peers because I know she can't. Then when she stops and forgets the next step and everybody in the number is looking at her, it's embarrassing."

Meanwhile, there have also been reports that Miller might be "faking" her engagement to fiancé Michael Padula.

Rumor has it that Padula might be gay, as he is an active member of the LGBT Networking Organization and trained to compete in Gay Ballroom Dance competitions.
