Abby Lee Miller Musical In The Works? Rosie O’Donnell Jokes About Taking Lead Role

Rosie O’Donnell just poked fun at Abby Lee Miller and her recent sentencing.

According to Entertainment Weekly, Miller was sentenced to one year and one day imprisonment on bankruptcy fraud charges. After the court’s decision was announced, O’Donnell wrote a cryptic message on Twitter saying that she wants to play the role of Miller in a musical. However, there is no word about a possible musical centered on the life of the former “Dance Moms” coach.

During her recent hearing, Chief Judge Joy Flowers Conti told an emotional Miller that her decision was based on the simple fact that the dance coach hasn’t been honest about her earnings from “Dance Moms” and its spinoff, “Abby’s Ultimate Dance Competition.” It was reported that Miller attempted to hide $775,000 of her income from both TV shows. “You weren’t truthful, even when you knew you were supposed to tell everything, you still weren’t truthful. Somehow you got caught up in the world of fame and you lost your moral compass,” Conti said.

On top of her jail time, Miller is also required to pay a fine of $40,000 and a $120,000 judgment for the currency-reporting violation charges she was hit with last summer. Following her one year and one day imprisonment, Miller will be freed, but she will be given an additional two years of supervised release, according to Deadline.

Following the hearing, Miller’s main lawyer, Robert Ridge, told the press that they respect the court’s decision. Miller was also asked to comment and said that she is finally at peace. Lifetime, “Dance Moms” execs and Colin Avenue Entertainment all refused to comment regarding Miller’s fate.

Meanwhile, Tuesday’s ruling by Conti came after Miller laid out her final argument while taking a stand in her own defense. “‘Dance Moms’ became a hit and I became a laughing stock of reality TV,” she said, before adding that it was her sudden fame that caused her to act the way she did.

Prior to Conti’s ruling, five character witnesses also took the stand in favor of Miller. They told the court that the Miller shown on television on Tuesday nights is not the real Miller they have grown to love and trust.

In other news, the court’s decision also came less than two months after Miller announced that she will no longer be returning to “Dance Moms” Season 8. Lifetime has ordered four more episodes for the hit reality TV series, and the young professional dancers will now be mentored by “Dancing With the Stars” pro Cheryl Burke.

On her Instagram account, Miller wrote a shocking post that seemingly threw shade at the producers of “Dance Moms.” The controversial coach clarified that she doesn’t have any problems working with any kid. But it is a problem when the people behind the show use and manipulate her day in and day out. She also stressed that none of the people behind “Dance Moms” took dance lessons, so they cannot be better than her when it comes to coming up with concepts and themes.

“Dance Moms” Season 8 will premiere on Lifetime sometime in the summer.
