The story seems familiar at this point.
lol as if I didn’t know," she continued.
“Let me remind you what you said in case you forgot!
You told me to ‘LOOK in the MIRROR!
That’s the only reason you are here!’
Kam told me she heard ‘they needed a sprinkle of color!”
“This is nothing new to me.
Miller apologizedto Smith and her daughter via Twitter on Thursday.
“I realize that racism can come not just from hate, but also from ignorance.
No matter the cause, it is harmful, and it is my fault,” she continued.
While I hope to one day earn your forgiveness, I recognize that words alone are not enough.
I understand it takes time and genuine change.”
“At this point, this is bigger than me and Kamryn.
Though not named in Miller’s apology, another parent fromDance Momshad also called out Miller’s behavior.
Camille Bridges said she also felt her daughter, Camryn Bridges, was mistreated due to her race.
Camryn appeared on seasons 4 and 7 ofDance Moms.
“[Miller] tried to spin Camryn as being the poor one and there on scholarship.
I shut that down immediately,” Bridges told E!
“She loves appropriating our culture and never appreciating it.
She did not give black choreographers on the show acknowledgment of their work.
She continuously put Camryn in afros.”
“When she returned, I looked at Camryn and told her we’re leaving.
I didn’t care anymore about the ‘platform.’
The woman is a mess.
She is incredibly two-faced.
It was a traumatic experience that I wish on no one.”
Like Smith, Bridges was unmoved by Miller’s apology.
“Her money is being affected; that is the only reason she’s speaking out.
She’s had years to apologize for the things she’s said to Camryn,” Bridges added.
“If she was truly repentant, she should put her money where her mouth is.
