Jojo Siwa is sticking up for a Dance Moms castmate. Last week, Christi Lukasiak answered a question about whether she still talks to choreographer Gianna Martello, a coach on Dance Moms from 2011 to 2019. Best known as the mom of 19-year-old Chloe Lukasiak, Christi curtly responded, "No, Gianna's not nice." Jojo stepped up to the plate to defend Gianna.

The girls placed first overall in the Teen Division under the direction of Miss Abby and Gianna Martello.

Since the Lifetime reality series premiered back in 2011, Gianna has assisted Abby in choreographing the award-winning numbers the Junior Elite Team performs every week on the show.
BuddyTV had the pleasure of speaking with Gianna for an exclusive interview, where she provided a background on her life, talked all things Dance Moms, spilled some show secrets and even discussed the legal issues surrounding Abby.
