As far as emotive, beautiful music videos go, Sia has knocked it out of the park with her trilogy of interprative dance story-telling. The first time we met Madison Ziegler was not in fact in part 1: Chandelier where she danced around a dishevelled apartment in a grubby skin coloured leotard. No, it was amidst all the ringlets and frosted eyeshadow of Dance Moms, an Amercian reality series where she was discovered by Sia herself.
Following the astonishing first video, Maddie starred with Shia LaBeouf in the contraversial follow up Elastic Heart, where they represented two warring 'self-states' of Sia.
Now she appears in Big Girls Cry as the final instalment. What do you think? let us know @ELLEUK
For Chandelier, Maddie took just two hours to learn the choreography. We wonder how long it took actress - not dancer - Kristen Wiig when she performed with Sia and Maddie at the 57th Grammy Awards. It's nothing if not hugely impressive. Watch it here.
