JoJo Siwa Clapbacks That Deserve to Be at the Top of the Pyramid

If you throw shade at JoJo Siwa, just know she isn’t afraid to send a response back like a boomerang. 

Like when the singer recently reacted to topping a list of “Most Disliked Music Videos by a Female Artist on YouTube in 2024” by noting she "beat Taylor Swift on a list of something." Or when she got booed while performing on stage and told the audience member, “Respectfully, f--k you."

Because, ultimately, JoJo isn’t going to let anyone get in the way of her D.R.E.A.M.s.

“It's hard when I see people commenting things,” the 21-year-old admitted in a 2020 TikTok. “But I've trained myself how to look at it from a comedy angle, and I have the best friends and the best family ever. So, that's all that matters.”

And as JoJo continues to explore the next chapter of her career as an adult—saying goodbye to her signature ponytail and bow—she knows people will have their opinions.

“It’s been fun. It’s been criticized, that’s for sure,” the Dance Moms told E! News in April. “People are afraid of things they don’t know. Things can be scary for people. New things can be very, very scary. But I think that creating art is such a special, special thing and I’m very lucky that I’m one of the people in the world that gets to create art.”

And from JoJo’s perspective, the fact that people are talking so much about her says it all.

“It doesn’t matter what you’re commenting, you’re still commenting,” the “Guilty Pleasure” artist noted to E! earlier this month. "There's people that are using their time to comment, 'You're not my guilty pleasure.' Then why are you on my page, and why are you commenting? Click not interested and keep it pushing, kid.”

After JoJo Siwa's "Karma" topped a list of "Most Disliked Music Videos by a Female Artist on YouTube in 2024," she noted her song beat out fourth place's "yes, and?" by Ariana Grande, third place's "Woman's World" by Katy Perry and second place's "Fortnight" Taylor Swift. 

"You know, I am the only person that can say I beat Taylor Swift on a list of something," the former Nickelodeon star said in a July 2024 TikTok. "I'll take it."

Because as JoJo saw it, she still came in first place.

"What a day to celebrate," she captioned the video. "Karma broke a record. 900% more than 2nd place. A win is a win."

JoJo didn't mince words after she was booed at her June 2024 Pride concert in New York.

"Who the living f--k just booed me?" the singer asked the crowd in a video shared on social media. "Where the f--k did that come from? Which one of you?"

And once she identified the individual, JoJo replied, "Respectfully, f--k you."

Similarly, while performing at a Pride concert in L.A. that same month, JoJo declared on stage, "Tell the haters to lick my nuts."

After being accused of stealing her song "Karma" from Miley Cyrus and Brit Smith, JoJo shut down the allegation.

"I did not steal anything," the YouTuber told TMZ in April 2024. "There’s no such thing as stealing."

And JoJo offered an explanation.

"Honestly, it’s an old song," she shared earlier with the outlet. "I was pitched it. I loved it, was obsessed it, so I grasped onto it. That’s a very normal thing. What happens is people write songs and then they just don’t do anything with them and then a few years later it makes more sense for another artist."

After being compared to JoJo in April 2024, Canadian rapper Lil Tay suggested she'd just learned who JoJo is and asked a social media user to “please don’t mention me & her in the same sentence”—adding JoJo “doesn’t write her music” and calling her a “fraud.” 

For her part, JoJo may have subtly responded to Lil Tay’s posts online—with fan accounts sharing screenshots of JoJo allegedly liking a post that read, “There’s really no comparison between JoJo and #LilyTay anyway. #JoJoSiwa has a career. Lil Tay is just a meme, and a pathetic one at that.”

The Dance Moms alum wasn't going to let this negativity take center stage.

After a social media user tweeted disappointment over JoJo joining So You Think You Can Dance's judging panel in spring 2022, she replied, "Literally why tweet this?" JoJo then proceeded to remind the follower of her résumé.

"18 Years of Dance Knowledge. 4 Major dance TV shows. I've hired over 1000 dancers. 16 Dance music videos," she added. "If you don't like me that's okay… but if you think I don't know about dance ya just sound silly." 

After JoJo and her then-girlfriend Avery Cyrus confirmed their relationship by posting a video of them kissing at Chuck E. Cheese in September 2022, a social media user poked fun at the date location. However, the "Boomerang" artist—who split from Avery later that year—didn't let the clip bring her down.

"You know what I love most about this?" she replied. "Is that this girl woke up today and was like, 'You know what? I'm gonna hate on JoJo Siwa for taking Avery on a date to Chuck E. Cheese' as if I haven't been a giant toddler my whole life. It's my duty."

In 2022, JoJo listed Candace Cameron Bure as the “rudest” celebrity she’s ever met for turning down an 11-year-old JoJo's request for a photo. The Full House alum apologized, and they buried the hatchet. Or so fans thought.

However, JoJo—who came out as a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community in 2021—called her out later that year after Candace said in an interview with The Wall Street Journal that Great American Family, a network where she works as Chief Creative Officer, “will keep traditional marriage at the core.”

“Honestly, I can’t believe after everything that went down just a few months ago, that she would not only create a movie with intention of excluding LGBTQIA+, but then also talk about it in the press,” JoJo wrote on Instagram. “This is rude and hurtful to a whole community of people.”

Candance later addressed her interview comments, saying she has “great love and affection for all people.”

“I had also expressed in my interview, which was not included, that people of all ethnicities and identities have and will continue to contribute to the network in great ways both in front of and behind the camera,” she wrote on Instagram, “which I encourage and fully support.”

This story may have landed on the top of the pyramid, er, rather your feeds.

In a since-deleted TikTok from 2020, Dance Moms alum Brooke Hyland posted a video of her receiving a new friend suggestion on Facebook and her cringing when she saw that it was for her former instructor Abby Lee Miller. However, JoJo didn't seem to appreciate the clip.

"It's one thing to just not add her back," she commented before adding, "It's another to post it..."  

After JoJo began switching up her look—like when she ditched her once-signature side ponytail and bow—fans started commenting on her new styles. So much so that the "D.R.E.A.M." performer addressed her followers.

"Recently I've shown myself looking different...," she wrote in an April 2020 TikTok. "Not the classic rainbow, sparkles, and side ponytail with a JoJo Bow....I've been hated on for YEARS for dressing 'Young' and acting 'Childish.' People think this is me 'changing.' LOL NOPE!!! I love who I am! This is just me at night or in the morning!"

And JoJo left them with a little "PSA."

"'If you yell at me I'm gonna cry'....." she captioned the video, "but if you hate on me I'm gonna laugh hahah! Thank u for the good times! Love u!"
