With an Instagram following of 11.4 million and a life in the spotlight, first starring in Dance Moms at the tender age of three-years-old, Mackenzie is set to star in a new project, Dancing With The Stars Juniors.

Starring alongside well-known faces like Honey Boo Boo (Alana Thompson), the show debuted in the US last night and so far, so good.

And although Mackenzie is a well-established dancer, supposedly she too found the transition to ballroom dancing difficult having never done it before the show.

Dancing alongside 16-year-old Sage Rosen, Mackenzie shared her excitement for the show to began writing:

“I’m so excited for you guys to see how hard I worked and how much fun I had.”

“So happy for my baby sis and fave Sage” alongside an image of the pair dancing.

We feel this show might help fill the Dance Moms OG shaped hole in our hearts.
