Being Sia's muse pays well, just ask Maddie Ziegler.
Ziegler recently signed on to star in the movie, "Sister," a musical drama set to be released next year starring Kate Hudson. The film marks Sia's directorial debut.
According to court documents obtained by The Blast, Ziegler will pull in $85,000 for the film. In addition, her deal calls for her to get an additional $50,000 for a Golden Globe nomination and another $50,000 if she wins.
The Oscars, as you can imagine, pay a little more — Ziegler gets $50,000 for an Oscar nomination, but would take home $200,000 if she wins.

The documents say Ziegler also gets a piece of merchandise profits and a small percentage of the profits for songs she is featured on.
Sia has used the "Dance Moms" in countless music videos, including "Chandelier," "Elastic Heart," "Cheap Thrills" and "The Greatest."
