What has made Sia so interesting to the world is that she very rarely shows her face and has become known for her long, blonde bob that covers her eyes. She has been interviewed several times about this issue of disguise and each time her responses have been that she simply does not want to be famous. Despite what some people may think, Sia has been writing songs since 1997 and after retiring from her own career, she continued to write songs for other singers like Christina Aguilera and the soundtrack of Burlesque, Beyonce, Flo Rida, Rihanna and David Guetta. It was not until after David Guetta released a version of the song Titanium which included Sia's background vocals that she came up on the music radar again.
The main reason Sia does not want to be famous or recognizable is because she has seen what life in the spotlight has done to other singers. She doesn't want the focus to be on her, but instead on the music and the message and emotions her songs depict. This is the reason Sia and Maddie's partnership has been so successful. Maddie is an interpretive dancer and the three music videos she has starred in have featured her performing to emotional choreographed dances that use wide motions and facial expressions to depict Sia's vision.
The other music videos Maddie has performed in include Chandelier
Elastic Heart, which was featured on The Hunger Games soundtrack. The music video starred Shia LaBeouf and Maddie Ziegler
And the most recent video to Big Girls Cry which was released on April 2, 2015
