"They mean the world to me and they've stuck behind me through thick and thin. I would not be where I am without them," she said, as reported by International Business Times.

The publication noted that apart from Ziegler, Lukasiak was also up against other "Dance Moms" stars Kalani Hilliker, JoJo Siwa, and Sophia Lucia.

This is not the first time that Lukasiak was able to snag an award from Ziegler. According to OK! magazine, the dancer also won the Choice Dancer award at the 2015 Teen Choice Awards.

At her acceptance speech, she encouraged her fans to never stop pursuing their passion. She revealed that she, too, had some doubts about herself but through the support of her family and friends she was able to power through the adversity.

"To anyone who has been told that they can't do it, they shouldn't do it, or they aren't good enough, ignore it, do it anyways and prove them wrong!" she said.

In another interview with the publication, Lukasiak admitted that she has always considered her Ziegler her "biggest rival." The dancer added that she was not surprised when she found out that she is, once again, up against Ziegler for the award.

"It's not really different than anything else," she explained. "I've always competed against her my whole life."

While she was still in the Lifetime series, ALDC coach Abby Lee Miller has always pitted the two dancers against each other. Some fans have wondered if the competition ultimately affected their friendship.

When asked, Lukasiak admitted that she lost touch with the "Dance Moms" cast. She said that she only see their posts on social media but they never got the chance to hang out again.

"It's hard to keep in touch because they're always traveling and our schedules are just really different," she said.
