Maddie Ziegler will exit "Dance Moms" after ‘Maddie and Mackenzie Say Goodbye’ episode.

Maddie Ziegler can no longer wait to work with her good friend and award-winning choreographer Travis Wall.

Earlier this week, "So You Think You Can Dance: Next Generation" host Cat Deeley announced that the 13-year-old former "Dance Moms" star will be performing with Wall next week in the hit FOX reality TV show.

Unfortunately, when Deeley asked if Ziegler can share some information about her upcoming performance, the latter declined to do so.

On her Instagram account, Ziegler shared a selfie with Wall during their recent rehearsal. In the snap, both dancers could be seen wearing their dance attire. "YAY! So excited for this... catch us on @danceonfox on Monday to see us dance!!"

Wall posted the same photo via his Instagram account and wrote, "Look who my dance partner is for the week!!! Make sure you check us out on Monday on the 250th episode of @danceonfox."

Meanwhile, Ziegler is the newest addition to the pool of judges on "So You Think You Can Dance: Next Generation." Week in and week out, she is tasked to give the contestants comments regarding their performances. Almost always, Ziegler praises Wall for his choreography and says that she is really amazed with his talent.

In other news, there are only five contestants left in "So You Think You Can Dance: Next Generation," namely, J.T. Church, Tahani Anderson, Tate McRae, Kida and Emma Hellenkamp. Their respective all-star partners perform with them weekly.

Church is paired with all-star Robert Roldan, Anderson is working with Comfort, McRae is teamed with Kathryn McCormick, Kida is paired with Fik-Shun and Hellenkamp is working with Gabby Diaz.

"So You Think You Can Dance: Next Generation" airs Mondays at 9 p.m. ET on FOX.
