In the world of celebrity news, it’s not uncommon for scandals to erupt and take over the headlines. However, when these scandals involve the invasion of a young person’s privacy, it becomes a matter of grave concern. The recent hacking incident involving Maddie Ziegler is one such case that has left the internet in shock and dismay.
Maddie Ziegler, a talented dancer who has been a featured performer in several of Sia’s music videos and live performances, has unfortunately become the latest victim of an iCloud hack. The culprit behind this cybercrime leaked a video of Maddie, leading to a wave of controversy and concern.
The stars of Dance Moms are no strangers to controversy — it’s just that it usually involves the moms, not their kids.
Unfortunately, 13-year-old Maddie Ziegler has become the latest celeb to have her iCloud hacked, which led to the culprit leaking a video wherein she bares her chest to the camera.
The leaked video, which has since been removed from the internet, showed Maddie holding a towel over her chest area, lifting it, and then dancing. The clip, which lasted for six seconds, was described by a YouTube user to Radar Online who claimed to have seen it before it was taken down.
“Maddie was holding a towel over her chest area” the YouTube user revealed. “She lifted up the towel then put it back on then lifted it again and started dancing. It goes on for six seconds.”
The incident came to light during a live chat between Maddie and her fellow dancers Kendall Vertes and Kalani Hilliker.

The dancer, who has been a featured performer in several of Sia’s music videos and live performances, apparently confirmed the existence of such a video during a recent live chat with friends and fellow dancers Kendall Vertes and Kalani Hilliker.
“Kalani, do you remember when we made our bathroom videos?” Maddie asked, with Kendall chiming in, “And your nipples came out!”
Though the girls laugh, in some jurisdictions they could face criminal charges for creating or trafficking child pornography — obviously no laughing matter.
We’re glad to learn the internet has been scrubbed of the video and hope whoever hacked the minor’s account is found and punished.
The internet community has shown its support for Maddie, condemning the hacker’s actions and expressing relief that the video has been removed. However, this incident serves as a stark reminder of the dangers of cybercrime and the importance of online privacy, especially for young celebrities who are often targeted.
While we can breathe a sigh of relief that the video has been scrubbed from the internet, the incident raises several questions about the safety and security of celebrities’ online data. It is hoped that the person responsible for hacking Maddie’s account is found and appropriately punished.
Incident involving Maddie Ziegler is a stark reminder of the perils of the digital age. It underscores the need for stringent cybersecurity measures and the importance of respecting individuals’ privacy, regardless of their celebrity status.
