Chloe Lukasiak: Interesting Facts About The Dance Moms Star

Born Chloe Elizabeth Lukasiak on May 25, 2001, she is one of the most well-known reality TV actresses on Lifetime. She starred in and continues to star in the series Dancing Moms for 4 seasons. She returns as a guest in the finale of the seventh season. So what other roles has she done?

Early Life

Chloe Elizabeth Lukasiak was born on May 25, 2001 in Pittsburgh, PA. Her parents, Marc and Christi Lukasiak, were highly instrumental in her early stage career, enrolling her in dance classes at the Abby Lee Dance Company at the tender age of two. She then began learning basic dance and jazzz moves, eventually moving on to broaden her style on the stage and beyond.

Chloe went on to participate in a variety of dance competitions both in her home state and at the national level, thus winning many trophies and titles which would allow her to get her foot in the door.

A Big Break for Chloe and Her Mother

The Abby Lee Dance Company was eventually featured on the Lifetime channel. The series Dancing Moms allowed each student, including Chloe, to dance along with their mothers as part of a reality TV series that would eventually make her a major star. Both Chloe and her mother made up the team that would eventually become Miller's Junior Elite Competition, and the rest would soon fall into place.

Tensions Between Miller and Chloe

Miller's Junior Elite Competition had some apparent flaws, one being that there were concerns circulating about exploitation of true talent. Chloe's mother, Christi, was one of the mothers whose concern for her daughter's welfare overrided any further desire for live competition, and Chloe was eventually pulled from the show at her mother's request.

For Chloe Lukasiak, however, this wasn't the end. She started exploring other avenues to showcase her natural talent. That, coupled with the ease she felt performing in front of a televised audience, was more than enough to take her to the next important phase of her career.

But her success isn't just limited to YouTube.

She was considered for two more honors, including the Shorty Award, which she lost to Misty Copeland, her chief competitor.
