Apparently, says that Ziegler was purposely shown to have forgotten her dance moves when in actuality it was the producers behind the scenes who wanted to allegedly sabotage her performance. Miller makes the revelation in her new book, Everything I Learned In Life, I Learned In Dance Class.
"In one episode, Maddie supposedly forgot her dance, but in reality, it was all set up by production," she explained in her book. "They set the ball in motion at the beginning of the week so that Maddie didn't have enough studio time to finish learning her solo."

Miller goes on to explain that Ziegler was asked to leave the studio after just 64 counts and was forced to learn almost all of her routine the morning of her performance.
"The other thing you don't see in the episode is that the jib camera operator didn't know what he was doing, and two kids before Maddie and two kids after Maddie ran off the stage because they forgot their dances... that never happens," she said.
"I think that was absolutely criminal on their part of the job operator, the director, the producer, and all involved," she added.
Miller is currently back on the small screen with Abby's Studio Rescue, where she plans to "fine-tune choreography, find the right staff, schedule classes, deal with overbearing moms and renovate studio space" in order to save businesses in need. The show airs every Tuesday at 9 p.m. EST/PST on Lifetime.
