Professional dancer/actress/model/social media influencer Maddie Ziegler became a household name when she starred in the reality TV series Dance Moms and became the muse of singer Sia. Maddie has starred in several of Sia’s music videos including ‘Chandelier’ and ‘Elastic Heart.’
As an actress Maddie is known for her roles in movies including the 2021 high school drama The Fallout (Mia), Steven Spielberg‘s West Side Story (as Velma), and more recently in Bloody Hell (as Lindy), among others.
When not dancing or acting, Maddie often models and shares photos with her 13 million followers on Instagram. When she shared the stunning topless photo above she captioned it, “Morning.”
The photo is stirring up memories from Dance Moms, where Maddie’s mother Melissa Gisoni said (a fan found the quote): “If Maddie ever came to me and said she wanted to be a topless dancer, I’d lock her in her room and throw away the key.”
Other fans are coming to the defense of Maddie, who is now 20 years old: “Y’all her chest is almost completely covered. She’s also grown. Get a grip.”
Maddie’s fans are also debating her choice to go without eyebrows, as seen in the fashion shoot above in which she models a leopard-print dress while sucking on a lollipop.
