[woman] Beautiful. Yes. I don't think
I need this either. -Is this for Brooke?
-Yeah. -Of course.
-[crew laugh] Hey, guys. It's Kendall. It's Chloé. I'm JoJo
and we are looking back... at some of the most memorable... prop and costume dramas... Let her wear
the [bleep] damn costume! ...on the show. -[woman] Whoo!
-Finally. [woman] It's the jerky girl. Oh, Chloé. You look fabulous! -[retches]
-All I can think is what did I get Chloé into? The beef jerky costume. That was god awful. -Good to see you, guys.
-Hi. -Hi.
-Hello. From the moment
I walked in, all I can think is,
"What did I get Chloé into?" and "I really hope
I did the right thing." I want it to be
very Lady Gaga-ish. So, if she can wear
a meat dress, <i> then Chloé can wear
a sausage outfit.</i> Oh. -It has beef jerky all over it.
-It does<i> .</i> After you're done, you can eat
all of the beef jerky -that's on your costume.
-Oh, good. I thought
Abby's costumes were bad. This thing is horrifying. That was humbling. I went to Candy Apple's,
I think to participate in her husband's <i> beef jerky company's
commercial.</i> <i> And so, everyone else was
like a cowgirl or something</i> <i> and they dressed me up</i> in a nude bodysuit
with safety-pinned <i> pieces of meat
hanging off of it. Real meat.</i> And a meat necklace. [young Chloé]<i> Last time
I had a professional job,</i> <i> we were all
in a music video having fun.</i> <i> And this time,</i> I'm in a stinky, dried up... [retches] disgusting beef jerky-- beef jerky meat suit. Are y'all good? The kids
are so excited to see you. Hurry up because
I'm on a tight schedule. Okay. We're coming. I certainly would not
want to have to deduct from-- from Chloé's pay.
Just keep that in mind. Cathy put out
the meat costume and <i> at first I was a little upset,
and then</i> <i> my mom said, "It's okay.</i> It's an acting job." You look nice. You look great.
All together at the same time. -Here comes the jerky girl.
-Oh, Chloé! You look fabulous! -Girls.
-[girls] You look nice. You might keep your distance
though -cause you stink a little bit.<i>
-Chloe's horrified.</i> She does not wanna be like
a little dancing sausage. She wants to come and dance. <i> I can't believe Chloé's
missing dance practice</i> <i> for this.</i> It was putrid and it smelled disgusting and I was in the back
of the room crying. And I was like,
"I don't wanna do this." And I think my mom was trying
to talk to me about <i> how Lady Gaga wore meat
or something</i> <i> and she's a legend
and I should just rock it.</i> I didn't feel that way,
I have to say. <i> In Ohio, dancing for
a beef jerky company.</i> Wasn't feeling super great. You're fabulous<i> .</i> Kiss, kiss. Let's go. Faced around-- [crew laugh] Props and costume drama.
Oh, my God. Every week, there was something. Let's see if you can be
a bit more JoJo. <i> The last thing I want
is for Mackenzie</i> to be like JoJo. <i> It's too bad she has to do it
covered up in blood</i> <i> next to Kendall.</i> You are backing up a brat! [Abby] Is that really a costume? You want to see a costume? -You hear that kid say that?
-Wow. Get her out of here. The zipper is stuck. When I was
in the plastic bubble, that prop was so dramatic. I could only be in the bubble
for five minutes at a time because there was
no oxygen in it. [Abby] The group routine... is an idea taken
from an old movie, <i> The Boy in the Plastic Bubble.</i> -I wanna be in the bubble.
-I wanna be in the bubble. We would have to get
in the bubble, <i> learn the dance
for five minutes,</i> <i> take a five-minute break.</i> <i> Learn the dance,
take a five-minute break.</i> "Just stick me in the bubble."
This was off-camera. I was like,
"Stick me in the bubble, and I'll tell you when
I can't breathe." [Abby]<i> Whoever is
inside the bubble,</i> <i> has to be so animated</i> that the judges can see
the acting capabilities and what they're trying to tell,
what the story is. <i> Would you want somebody
who's vague than animated?</i> I think JoJo fits the bill. [girl] But you can only be
in it for five minutes. Nope, not for JoJo. How is she gonna breathe? If she passes out
after a couple minutes, we know there's
no ventilation in there. When we open this,
you need to suck air, okay? It's practice, one time. Oh, my God.
That's making me panic. Ready? No. Well, I can't get it open. [JoJo] Wait. I have to, like-- [Abby] The zipper's stuck. Oh, gosh. Take her out. Get her-get her out of here. Unzip her please. -The zipper is stuck.
-She's dying. So, then there was a fast,
"Get me out. Air-I can't. There's no more." Um, it was fun. It was so fun.
I loved the bubble. -You okay?
-I'm good. That was fun. Good job. [MC] Team group specialty, <i>The Girl in the Plastic Bubble.</i> [Abby] Come on, kid.
Get it back there. Get the zipper back
behind there. She can't. Go, go, go, go<i> .</i> Good job!
Did you see what she did? [woman] Yes! She was the best choice
for the team. -Abby knew--
-Scene. Jill, let me see her costume. -This is the white costume.
-Okay. You did not whip
that up last night. It's supposed to be
about the kids! Let her wear
the [bleep] damn costume! For one time only, you all get to help out
with the costumes. The moms are responsible
for the costumes this week <i> and there are to be
no recycled costumes</i> <i> and no costumes
she has seen before.</i> You come up
with something original. Let me see. That's beautiful.
Did you make that? Um... -Yes, that's an old costume.
-No, I wouldn't say it's old. I didn't say I made it. But did she wear it
around the studio? No. You just had that
in your closet? Maybe it wasn't mine.
Maybe it was someone else's. -they lent it to me.
-Jill, let me see her costume. Okay. This is the white costume. You did not whip
that up last night. I never said
I whipped it up last night. You didn't say go home
and whip up-- I'm not Becky Homecky.
This is a costume. I just wanted you to use pieces you had at home,
come up with something at the last minute. You have not seen her
in this costume. Somebody, somewhere
has seen her in it. You have something at home.
Make it work. It's not about winning. It's about what I wanna
put her in. No, it's about what I want
to put your daughter in. Brooke went out there
in a $30 leotard, and she danced beautifully. I can't believe you guys
wouldn't back me up on this. Because we're following
the rules. -What are you doing?
-I'm leaving! You don't want me here. I'll
just make it easier for you. No. We want you here.
Play by the rules. -The reason-- Jill!
-Whatever. I'll pack my bags and go home right now! Is that-- Would that make
you guys all really happy? No. That would not
make me happy. Because that's what I'm doing!
I'm sick of this [bleep]! You're--It's gonna be [bleep]! Your child loses out. Good for you! Jill's throwing shoes
and she's cursing and all I'm thinking is, "You are so hard to take
seriously wearing that hat." It is supposed to be
about the kids! Let her wear
the [bleep] damn costume! I was so upset
about the costume meltdown and yes, that is the time
I had my cowboy hat on, which I love.
I'm just going on record and saying I love
that cowboy hat. I feel like my mom's
most iconic look is definitely the cowboy hat.
I feel like if you ask anybody that, the world will
answer with the cowboy hat. My mom still wears the hat. <i> Like, she wears it
to the beach.</i> <i> She wears it to the lake.</i> <i> She'll wear it gardening
in the summer.</i> That hat is still a staple
in her wardrobe. It's not going anywhere. Well, it was- We were in Texas. I was dressed for the part. I-- Texans wear cowboy hats. <i> So, I just thought
it was appropriate</i> <i> I have a few and I wear them.</i> So, I brought my cowboy hat and I didn't think
it was gonna cause <i> -such a ruckus.
-You can't miss it anywhere.</i> Even though it's literally
the [bleep] cowboy hat ever. You could literally blow on it
and it would crinkle. <i> It's an ancient artifact.</i> It should never be touched
by human hands ever again. White pumps first
and its [indiscernible]. No, it's not white pumps. -It's called Bumblebee.
-Bumblebee? <i> Last week,
Cathy went behind my back.</i> She let Vivi do an old routine
that she had known. <i> So, this week, I put that
bumblebee costume on her.</i> I had her run that routine <i> over and over and over.</i> <i> So that that mother
could not change it.</i> I love that Vivi doesn't know
how iconic she is. Vivi is probably one of
the most iconic people to come out of<i> Dance Moms.</i> [Cathy laughs] Dance has been in my life
since I've been three years old. My mom danced. My grandma danced. Six, seven, eight. Get it up.
Two, three. You're hiking her up like
she's a sack of potatoes. Can you tell me that
I have a brilliant idea. You know
how I love to hear that. You have a brilliant idea. That fits you beautifully. I don't like makeup
and costumes. Chasse. Saute. -Point those feet.
-Oh. -What do we have on?
-Point. Point. <i> If she is insistent
that Vivi have to do</i> <i> this bumblebee dance,</i> I will certainly reimburse her
for her time <i> and we may not even be
at the competition.</i> When I saw Vivi, You would've thought
I saw Jesus. Like I was so excited. I did.
I actually dressed up as Vivi for Halloween this year. It was so good. My best friend, Ezra, was Cathy and I was Vivi as a bumble bee. And it was amazing. <i> Vivi's solo is coming up
and I'm extremely nervous.</i> <i> I want to see her
do a good job.</i> And I'm also excited
for her because she looks as adorable as a
honeybee can possibly look. [MC] Say hello to Vivi-Anna in
"Bumblebee." Oh, I've known the dance
since I was like seven. <i> I knew the dance the week
after the dance aired on TV.</i> <i> I knew that whole dance.</i> I actually-- I FaceTimed Cathy
and showed her my outfit and then Vivi saw it
on social media. I don't have Vivi's number,
so I just- She saw it on social media
and reached out. They loved it. Both actually, Cathy and Abby, thought that I found
the original costume. And both asked me
how do I fit into that. I was like, "No, guys.
I had it made."
