Melissa Sulo was born on the 13th June 1968, in New York City, USA, and is a reality star who, as Melissa Zeigler-Gisoni, is probably best known for being the mother of Mackenzie and Maddie Ziegler, and therefore featured in the television reality series “Dance Moms” between 2011 and 2016.
Have you ever wondered how much wealth this popular mother and reality person has accumulated so far? How rich Melissa Gisoni is? According to sources, it is estimated that the total of Melissa Gisoni’s net worth, as of late 2017, exceeds the sum of $2 million, primarily acquired through her on-camera appearances as well as through her daughters’ professional dancing accomplishments.
Melissa Gisoni Net Worth $2 million
Melissa’s two girls, Maddie and Mackenzie have excelled at dancing since the very early ages of four and two, respectively; they studied dancing and deepened their skills at the Abby Lee Miller’s Reign Dance Productions. In 2011, Melissa and her daughters were cast for the six-week documentary named “Just Dance”. However, it soon grew to Lifetime’s reality TV series “Dance Moms” – a show which follows the development of young dancers under the careful tutelage of some of show business’ top choreographers, bringing Melissa and the children into greater prominence. This venture provided the basis for Melissa Gisoni’s net worth.
During her six-season-long tenure on the show, Melissa appeared as a caring and supportive parent, earning her nickname as “second mom” by the other kids on the show. However, after six years of honing their skills, the Ziegler girls began to crave for some new experiences and opportunities and, alongside their mother Melissa, left the show in 2016. Upon leaving “Dance Mom”, Melissa opened a dance studio in her own house, hiring a dance instructor so that her daughters could continue with their practices. This whole endeavor made a significant impact on the size of Melissa Gisoni’s net worth.
The show has appeared to be a launching pad for Maddie’s professional dancing career, leading her to film several videos with Sia, but it also contributed to Melissa work, as she has also appeared in several music videos, including Todrick Hall’s “Ease on Down the Boulevard” and “Freak Like Me”. It is certain that all these accomplishments have helped Melissa Gisoni not only to boost her popularity, but also to add a meaningful amount of money to her net worth.
As her daughters are still underage, Melissa is the one who “call the shots” and, as she stated, she is focused on raising her daughters in a humble way. In 2017, Mrs. Gisoni appeared in “Famewhore” TV series.
Speaking about Melissa Gisoni’s personal life, she has married twice – from her marriage with Kurt Ziegler she has Maddie and Mackenzie before divorce in 2011. Since 2013, she has been married to the Vice President of Westinghouse Electric Company Greg Gisoni. With her husband and two daughters, Melissa splits her time between Los Angeles, California, and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
