There's a lot more to Sia's latest music video than first meets the eye.
After releasing her new song "The Greatest" with Kendrick Lamar on Monday, the singer released an accompanying music video starring her favorite dancer, Maddie Ziegler — and this time, the 13-year-old had backup.
Featuring 49 dancers in total, "The Greatest" is reportedly a tribute to the 49 victims of the horrific Orlando shooting at Pulse nightclub earlier this summer. In the beginning of the video, the text "#WeAreYourChildren" flashes on the screen before Maddie uses her fingers to paint rainbows on her face. What follows is five minutes of gorgeous and emotional dancing, including a heartbreaking ending where all 49 dancers appear to shake in place before falling to the ground, revealing a wall with bullet holes in it.
According to Billboard, featured dancer Matt Moseley confirmed the video's message on Instagram on Monday night, posting a screenshot of "The Greatest" along with a caption divulging its true message.
"Humbled to be a part of this video," he wrote. "49 beautiful lives lost. This is for you."
