Abby Lee Miller is making her way to prison in the next few weeks. The disgraced former Dance Moms star was sentenced to one year and one day in the slammer after pleading guilty to bankruptcy fraud last June.
According to Radar Online, “Abby will be checking into prison on June 30.”
“Although she has not yet received an official confirmation on where she will be serving her time, she has heard good things about Apple Valley or Victorville, which are both prisons located in California,” the rep said.
Wait… so is Abby actually looking forward to swapping her dancing costumes for an orange jumpsuit? Reality TV stars do have a knack for coming out of prison and landing higher paid reality TV gigs.
Maybe Teresa Giudice has been giving Abby some tips on how to raise her profile or something because she did get a hefty raise when she returned to The Real Housewives of New Jersey following her stint in the slammer.
Abby’s legal woes came to the forefront when it emerged that she tried to hide more than $ 775,000 in earnings. If you watch Dance Moms online, you will already know that some of the other moms have taunted Abby over her bad decisions.
It’s difficult to feel bad for Miller when you consider just how nasty she has been on the Lifetime reality series. At one point during the most recent season, Miller broke down in tears as she wondered what would become of her.
Even Miller herself is still shocked about the fact she will be spending a stretch behind bars.
“I almost fell over when my sentence was announced,” Miller said at the premiere for E!’s Vanderpump Rules wannabe, The Abbey.
She also claimed that she was planning to return the money she owed, but there has been nothing else said about it since.
It’s crazy to think just how prominent Abby was on reality TV and now she’s showing up to premieres for some of the worst reality shows out there.
Abby quit Dance Moms in sensational fashion earlier this year, with a statement that essentially trashed everyone associated with the production of the Lifetime hit.
It reads as follows:
The majority of children that follow me may be fast asleep, however now is the critical time to make the following statement:
I WILL NO LONGER TAKE PART IN DANCE MOMS.
FOR THE PAST SIX YEARS/ SEVEN SEASONS I HAVE ASKED, BEGGED, AND EVEN DEMANDED CREATIVE CREDIT FOR ALL THE IDEAS, AWARD WINNING ROUTINES, THEMES, AND COSTUMING – TO NO AVAIL!
TODAY, I WAS SO PROUD THAT I WENT AGAINST THE PRODUCER’S IDEA (ONCE AGAIN) TO ENTER A COMMAND PERFORMANCE OF ONE OF MY FAVORITE NUMBERS… “WHERE HAVE ALL THE CHILDREN GONE?”
ALONG WITH THREE BEAUTIFUL SOLOS!
I don’t have a problem working with any kid, I love children and have dedicated my life to making other people’s children successful!
I JUST HAVE A PROBLEM WITH BEING MANIPULATED, DISRESPECTED, AND USED – DAY IN AND DAY OUT BY MEN WHO NEVER TOOK A DANCE LESSON IN THEIR LIVES AND TREAT WOMEN LIKE DIRT!
It was a scathing rant, but we should not have expected anything less with the likes of Miller.
In the months since that rant, she has also taken aim at Cheryl Burke who replaced her on the series. This all came about after Burke made a comment about the girls being traumatized after Abby’s legal woes.
