  • Return of The Slap
    Jan 6 2025

    "You're doing your job. Your job is literally to fight!"


    The Slap Heard Around the World was so loud you can still hear it echo to this very day. So naturally Christi and Kelly have a lot more to discuss about the subject! This week our Bitches are digging deeper into "Big Trouble in the Big Apple", pulling back the curtain on the behind the scenes aftermath and answering some bitchette submitted questions.


    Topics include: What really went down with Kelly's arrest? Was that really her mug shot featured on the show? What was everyone's immediate reaction to the slap, how did the kids react? What went down at the trial and much, much more!


    Quotes

    • “Somebody said what's your word? Like what's your inspiration word? I was gonna say asshole." (07:26-07:31 | Christi & Kelly)
    • “I went to Macy's in New York and was shopping for outfits for those kids to meet Lucy Hale while you were in jail. Well thanks!" (28:39-28:47 | Christi & Kelly)
    • “[Abby] had a cop walk her to the bathroom, cause she knew we were in the building, stand guard so we couldn't pee when she was in the bathroom. Maybe she was afraid we were going to gang up and kick her?" (40:16-40:31 | Christi & Kelly)
    • “...and now the episodes get really dark. Fun fun!" (1:00:08-1:00:10 | Christi)

    "I bought them all gifts this Christmas, I was thoughtful, I was courteous, I was giving and kind! Hey! Psst... you're supposed to let other people give you compliments. Yeah and psst, she didn't pay for any of that shit!" It wouldn't be Christmas with the ALDC without a little coal in your stocking from good ol' Abby! this week to celebrate Christmas our Holly Jolly Btiches are stepping back a week from the slap heard around the world to cover Season 4's Christmas Special "Twas the Fight Before Christmas".


    Abby is prepared to give gifts to all the moms and girls, but wouldn't you know it, just like in any normal week of the show Abby has a funny way of showcasing that some people are her favorites. Is it really fair if one kid gets a vanity box, one kid gets a puppy, and one somehow gets $5,000? Make it make sense! Though to add insult to injury almost no one seemed to receive their gifts in the long run, but even worse was the blatant misrepresentation about what some of the gifts actually were. Abby might eb in the giving mood, but there's only so much to give when you have a negative desire to offer anything!


    Quotes

    • “It was a vanity. It was probably $100 and Maddie has a $5000 gift certificate! She didn't even have make-up in her vanity!" (20:42-20:50 | Christi)
    • “All I can say is Holly is married with those feet and you are not." (37:29-37:34 | Kelly)
    • “Oh god don't sing." (42:04-42:06 | Kelly)
    • “Ok everyone needs to realize that she said she got a lifetime of books. You guys we were on Lifetime, it was a Lifetime gift certificate for $50 dollars." (1:12:10-1:12:20 | Christi)

    "This is the duet that broke Dance Moms," and Christi is not being hyperbolic. For all intense and purposes Dance Moms changed with this episode for the worse. The ratings were never as high and the episodes weren't nearly as funny, because this is Kelly's last episodes as part of the ALDC. It's the episode you've all been waiting for and it's one of our longest recaps yet for a reason because there is A LOT to unpack and plenty of tea to be spilt about what really went down in that room.


    Abby is unhappy how the team performed in the previous competition even though they came in 1st in the group competition, and states she will form a new team, keeping only Maddie, to compete against her own team. The ALDC is heading to New York for Sheer Talent and Abby will host the final round of ALDC auditions with the intent of coming back with both a win and a new team. Unbeknownst to everyone, except for Melissa and Maddie, Abby also intends to undermine Chloe and Paige's performance with a surprise guest.


    Quotes

    • “I've never seen this episode. I never did either. I don't think I watched it when it came out, I really don't. Cause I have real f***ing trauma from this day." (00:57-01:06 | Christi & Kelly)
    • “It's sad that she wants the girls that she taught to lose and the girls she didn't teach to win. Yeah it's so dumb cause she doesn't get that that makes her look stupid." (14:21-14:30 | Christi & Kelly)
    • “Paige and Maddie were very close. And the fact that she could look at her and lie? I just don't know how you can allow your kid to do that? To raise them to think that that is ok." (1:07:49-1:08:06 | Kelly)
    • “She has a bracelet on that says 'tough' and she's crying because somebody pulled her hair. Meanwhile it wasn't even her hair it was freaking extensions." (1:44:26-1:44:36 | Christi & Kelly)
