Her mother, Jill Vertes, introduced her to dance. Jill herself was a dancer and gymnast when she was younger. Vertes’ singing career began with a music group called the Glitter Girls, and in 2011, they appeared on the music show “Party Rockers Dance Reality Show.” She released her first music video for ‘Wear ‘Em Out’ in 2015.

When she appeared on “Dance Moms,” Vertes became a household name, but appearing on the show wasn’t an overnight event. She started taking dance classes when she was a child. She joined the show in 2012 as a replacement for Vivi-Anne. She won the affection of millions of people with her beauty and her dancing skills, however, many of them believed that she was being bullied on the show. Many viewers were sorry to see her leave the show in 2017.

She has also used her good looks to pursue a modeling career, and many of her fans suggest that she focuses more on modeling. Vertes made her acting debut in the short film “Todrick Hall: Freaks Like Me” (2014). Her next movie was “Trico Tri Happy Halloween” (2018), where she was the main character. After that, she appeared in another movie, titled “Rapunzel: A Princess Frozen in Time” (2018). Vertes is building quite a portfolio for herself, and she may soon appear in major motion pictures.
