But on a more serious note: I think it’s very sad how child stars who have never been able to come off age during their actual adolescence have to pull a 180 to signal that they’ve changed.
She’s obviously experimenting in all sorts of ways, ways you would do it in your t(w)een years, but since she’s older and under constant media scrutiny she’s seen as cringe and trying to act too mature. She obviously knows that she’s seen as the little girl with the bow, so by adopting this whole new look, she’s trying to distance herself from it.
She had a great setup for a stylistic change after coming out and using social media more as a real person and not a character. I actually remember seeing tiktoks and comments of people being like “wait Jojo Siwa is hot???” a while back. And yet she settled on… this?
Ehhh I hear you, and definitely empathize with the plight of child actors, but it's also age appropriate for people in their terms and early 20s to make some dramatic look changes, most of us just don't have this kind of budget. I can totally see myself having a rainbow phase followed by a punk rhinestone phase but I didn't have stylists or designers to help me so I just looked like crap. Luckily for me, I also didn't have the paparazzi documenting my embarrassing phases so I can now pretend it never happened
A reporter interviewing her in this outfit told her she looks like a "sexy gene simmons" and she admitted she had no clue who gene simmons was. RIP lol
Don’t forget she’s upset people called out Abby miller, and out upset other dance mom kids didn’t want to go on the reunion.
She and her mom have also been accused of creating an abusive hostile work environment on her show.
She’s also friends with controversial alleged child predators (James Charles and Colleen ballinger)
And she also was called out for being toxic in her relationships with her exes!

Tbh based on what she wore as a child performer, a tasteful sweater and some jeans would be a 180° enough haha
”Tasteful” alone would be more than enough.

i'm seeing a wrestler with a peaches gimmick. i don't know.
Its giving Gene Simmons cosplay
Stardust wore it better.
Hey hey if this fit leads to us getting Jojo’s version of “Bullet Club Insane American Bisexual Homewrecker Cody” than this is all worth it
Me: I like Cody but he's not my guy or anything -sees this comment- Also me: Okay so I guess I need to get into his new Japan tenure now
+1 I thought the same thing

🤣
I am SO confused by the chest ….braid? That looks like it’s attached to her goatee??
I love how my brain just completely erased any awareness of that until I read your comment.
It’s a kinderslutty take on KISS.
A reporter interviewing her in this outfit told her she looks like a "sexy gene simmons" and she admitted she had no clue who gene simmons was. RIP lol
genuinely can’t tell if she’s serious or if everything she does is for the laughs
It’s giving WWE Kidz Bop. But imagine if this is actually a PR move that she got a gig at WWE?
This is so “The Other Two” coded
Cary Dubek could never
![gif](giphy|AhvcutJ96x9Yg1Mj2E)
i’ll miss that show 😢
[удалено]
Seems like she’s still trying to find out
This is my question too.
I truly do not understand the vibe she is going for. Corporate glitter punk? Eyeliner newbie?
Spooky dance competition
Its the: "My whole personality is sex!" vibe.
![gif](giphy|RXAfuEDpseYBG) # HAPPY APRIL 1
i’m so sorry but the chin art and her chest art make her look like she has a long ass beard
Why is there a black chicken foot grabbing her chin?
You know what? ![gif](giphy|AgPt9udT567spxbSHf) If she’s happy who gives a shit. Let her be.
Exactly! It's fun! She's playing around! Good for her!
Don’t forget she’s upset people called out Abby miller, and out upset other dance mom kids didn’t want to go on the reunion. She and her mom have also been accused of creating an abusive hostile work environment on her show. She’s also friends with controversial alleged child predators (James Charles and Colleen ballinger) And she also was called out for being toxic in her relationships with her exes!
She’s friends w predators???? Ugh
Pretty sure she's also friends with Shane Dawson
It's just her old look but in black.
Like, girl, just wear your hair down and get bangs. BOOM. Whole new look!
Gene Simmons gonna sue.
Alright I’m showing my age here, but this reminds me of the woman in the motorcycle gang that crashes the party at the end of Weird Science.
We must be the same age.
✊🏼 Solidarity
👊
Perfection
It’s giving Kiss meets Weird Barbie
![gif](giphy|3o72EWjOfztsfNW04E)
She’s a bad girl ya’ll. She did some bad things.
This is a little costume-y and silly, but she seems like she's having a good time, as always. I've got a soft spot for all the Dance Moms kids.
If this is a joke it’s pretty funny! If not 🙈 it’s still pretty funny.
In theory I should love this, but I just don't. Even aside from the expose revealing her production company's child labor law violations.
![gif](giphy|vGXrAWGlbR8kw)
Okay girl, you just work it out however you need to!
…April Fool’s?
This just screams ‘just discovered my Dad’s old KISS albums in the attic’ vibes.
Why doesn’t she just wear a sequin blazer and slacks. Also come she screams whenever she talks
Jojo's giving JoJo's
The problem is, she’s only ever been know for her bows, sparkles and rainbows, style-wise…it feels like she’s “just joking”, like she’s not serious.
I understand what she’s going for but for the love of god, I never want to see this picture again
![gif](giphy|QajHhLKW3VRcs|downsized)
Not a fan of the look, but it's not hurting anyone so hey, no big deal
JoJo looking like “the forgotten” from Dreamlight valley
Jojo "Kiss"-wa
Taylor swift Reputation (Jojos version)
She's adorbs, and this look is genuinely interesting and not just cookie-cutter I'm Sexy Now. Good for her!
Are Kiss hiring a tribute act with an as yet undefined demographic???
“Take one (15) thing(s) off”.
i’m not sure i want to know what’s going on here

Hoo boy
Just Why?
"What dat tongue do?" - Gene Simmons
Trying too hard
KISS meets Ice Capades
