"Dance Moms" star Abby Lee Miller pleaded guilty Monday to bankruptcy fraud and failing to report thousands of dollars in Australian currency she brought into the country. Authorities said she hid more than $228,000 in income from appearances on "Dance Moms" and a spinoff, "Abby's Ultimate Dance Competition," and nearly $550,000 more from personal appearances, dance sessions and merchandise. Miller pleaded guilty to one count of concealing bankruptcy assets and one count of structuring international monetary transactions. Her reality show "Dance Moms" follows her young students and their involved mothers, who attend practices and performances and openly clash with the brash Miller over her criticism of their daughters. Miller, who remains free on $10,000 unsecured bond, issued a statement last week accepting responsibility for what she called "mistakes."
