“Ava, how was the meanest dance teacher to hit the Lifetime screen?”

That’s a great question.

She wasn’t as horrible as I thought she was going to be. In one part of her masterclass, she lined up the ten finalists to sing for her. When it got to my turn, of course I picked “No One” by Alicia Keys. She responded to my singing with “Not bad, not bad,” which, compared to the girls standing next to me, was a Grammy win.
