Tori Spelling commends JoJo Siwa in the face of rebrand backlash

Tori Spelling Praising JoJo Siwa Despite Criticism of Rebrand

JoJo Siwa has found an unexpected supporter in Tori Spelling. The former “Beverly Hills, 90210” actress took to her Instagram Story to shower the former “Dance Moms” star with praise following the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards in Los Angeles.

In a heartwarming message accompanying a snapshot of the two at the event, Spelling wrote, “And, this one … we bonded over my kiddos and I’ve loved watching your journey and you kick ass!”

This gesture of support from Spelling comes at a time when Siwa, 20, is facing harsh criticism for her rebranding efforts. Siwa, known for her glittery child icon image, is now transitioning into a more mature young adult persona. Her recent release of a clip for her new single, “Karma,” featuring cursing and daring lyrics, has raised eyebrows. Additionally, her bold fashion choices, like the nude illusion catsuit in the music video, have sparked controversy.

During the iHeartRadio Music Awards, Siwa donned a black, bedazzled catsuit reminiscent of the rock group Kiss, with a braided mohawk and intricate black makeup. These bold style choices have not only raised questions about her new image but have also drawn comparisons to Miley Cyrus’ provocative transition into adulthood with her “Bangerz” album in 2013.

While social media critics have voiced their disapproval of Siwa’s rebrand, the young star remains undeterred. In an interview at the iHeartRadio Music Awards, Siwa defended her evolving style, stating, “People are afraid of things they don’t know. Things can be scary for people. New things can be very, very scary.”

Despite the backlash, Siwa’s confidence in her direction remains steadfast. She shared, “The way that I’m able to keep going and keep being like, ‘Wait, actually what I’m doing is right’ is because some of the most respected people in the world have come up to me and been like, ‘What you’re doing right now is so right. It is what the world needs, and I’m learning from what you are doing right now.'”

In addition to receiving support from Tori Spelling, who recently filed for divorce from Dean McDermott, Siwa has also been praised by Kiss rocker Gene Simmons. Simmons defended Siwa, calling her “extraordinary” and emphasizing the importance of being extraordinary rather than ordinary.

In conclusion, despite facing criticism and backlash for her rebranding efforts, JoJo Siwa remains resilient in her pursuit of self-expression and personal growth. With the support of influential figures like Tori Spelling and Gene Simmons, Siwa is forging her path confidently and fearlessly. As she continues to navigate the challenges of transitioning from a child star to a mature artist, Siwa’s determination and authenticity shine through, setting her apart as a unique and inspiring individual in the entertainment industry.
