"Dancing with the DEVIL" (Was it a HUGE MISTAKE?)
Miranda Derrick, the central figure in Netflix’s gripping docuseries “Dancing for the Devil: The 7M TikTok Cult,” has broken her silence. In an emotional Instagram video, she reveals that her life has taken a terrifying turn since the documentary’s release. Derrick and her husband, James, now live in fear, haunted by threats and harassment.
The 7M cult: A dance with danger
The three-episode series, which premiered on May 29, delves into the secretive world of 7M—a talent management company that operates under the guise of a TikTok dance group.
Miranda Derrick, estranged from her family, becomes the focal point of the investigation. As the documentary unfolds, viewers witness the heart-wrenching stories of other 7M members who escaped the clutches of their enigmatic leader, Robert Shinn.
But behind the scenes, allegations of manipulation, coercion, and emotional abuse emerge. Priscylla Lee, a former 7M member featured in the series, is currently suing Shinn and other Shekinah members.
A life unraveled
In her candid video, Derrick recounts the chilling aftermath of the documentary’s release.
Before this documentary, my husband and I felt safe, she says. Now, we feel like our lives have been put in danger.
The threats are relentless: hate mail, death threats, and stalking. Derrick shares screenshots of menacing messages, including one that threatens to shove her into a car trunk if encountered on the street.
Blaming the family
Derrick places responsibility squarely on her parents and sister, Melanie Wilking. She questions their motives for participating in the documentary, wondering how it could possibly benefit their relationship.
Despite the turmoil, the series concludes with a surprising twist: Derrick and her family have begun to reconcile, albeit under the watchful eye of their alleged cult leader.
A call for awareness
As the controversy surrounding “Dancing for the Devil” continues, Miranda Derrick’s plea for safety echoes across social media. Her story serves as a stark reminder that truth can be more terrifying than fiction, and that sometimes, dancing with the devil exacts a heavy toll.
