JoJo Siwa Responds to Miley Cyrus's Pride Month Joke: 'All Love'
JoJo Siwa Slams Miley Cyrus for Closet Joke: "Not What the World Needs"
Get ready for a celebrity showdown like no other! JoJo Siwa, the queen of pop and dance, has fired back at her idol Miley Cyrus after she made a joke about JoJo's sexuality at World Pride. And trust us, it's getting juicy!
It all started when Miley took to social media to poke fun at JoJo's romance with Love Island star Chris Hughes. The Party in the USA singer poked fun at JoJo's recent coming out as queer, saying that she should "come out of the closet" and not just do it for Pride Month. But instead of being the joke, JoJo took offense to Miley's joke and responded with a powerful message.
"I was happy at my 5th birthday having a Miley themed party, and I'm still happy now at 22... If you know me, you know that Miley is my day one, grew up beyond inspired by her from 2 years old on..." JoJo wrote, sharing a series of photos with Miley and revealing that she was devastated by the joke.
But here's the thing - JoJo believes that Miley didn't mean to hurt her feelings, saying that the joke "was meant to be a joke, but just not very good one haha." And after messaging Miley about it, JoJo got a sweet response: "All love. Always ❤️❤️❤️."
In a heartfelt post, JoJo reminded everyone that "love is a gorgeous rainbow" and encouraged her fans to love themselves no matter what. She also shared some valuable advice: "Don't question yourself, don't second guess yourself, just love."
This isn't the first time Miley has faced backlash for her jokes about sexuality. Remember when she made fun of JoJo's romance with Chris Hughes? Yeah, that didn't go well either.
The drama started when Miley appeared in a video message at World Pride, saying: "Oh, my God, I haven't been in here since sixth grade! Enjoy coming out of the closet if this Pride is the time for you... It shouldn't be a month - it should be a year; it should be infinite." She then joked about finding JoJo and bringing her back out of the closet.
But social media users were not having it. One fan tweeted: "Can ya'll just let bi people exist?" Another said: "I adore Miley, but this isn't OK... JoJo never went back into the closet, SHE'S STILL QUEER! 🏳️🌈"
TheScholarlyNote.com has learned that JoJo and Chris are still going strong, with sources close to the couple saying that they're "absolutely loved-up." And it looks like Chris's parents have given their seal of approval too!
But back to Miley and her joke. It seems that even pop stars can't escape the drama and controversy surrounding their words. In a world where love is love, we should be celebrating all members of the LGBT+ community, not making jokes about them.
