JoJo Siwa, the 21-year-old former Dance Moms star, has achieved yet another milestone in her career. Despite facing criticism since the release of her song “Karma” in April, JoJo remains unfazed. In fact, she proudly announced that her music video has earned a record-breaking 3.1 million dislikes on YouTube, making it the most disliked music video by a female artist in 2024.
On TikTok, JoJo hilariously counted down the list of most disliked videos, with Ariana Grande’s “yes, and?” at fourth place, followed by Katy Perry’s “WOMAN’S WORLD” in third place, and Taylor Swift’s “Fortnight” in second place. Finally, she joyously declared herself the winner and took the top spot. “Your number one first place overall goes to ‘Karma’ by JoJo Siwa, with an astonishing, record-breaking 3.1 million dislikes!” she exclaimed.
Despite the negative feedback, JoJo maintains a positive attitude. She made a lighthearted comment, saying, “You know, I am the only person that can say I beat Taylor Swift on a list of something. I’ll take it.” The vibrant young artist has always been open about her enthusiasm for entering adulthood. She attributes the criticism she faces to people’s fear of the unknown and unfamiliar. As she said in an interview with E! News, “New things can be very, very scary.”
However, JoJo is grateful for the validation and support she receives from fellow musicians. She has been inspired by the positive feedback she’s received from respected artists like Lil Nas X and Meghan Trainor. Their encouragement reinforces her belief that what she is doing is right and that she is making a positive impact on the world.
To see JoJo’s growth and transformation over the years, here are some highlights:
- In September 2013, JoJo made her reality TV debut on Abby’s Ultimate Dance Competition at the age of nine, judged by Abby Lee Miller.
- In March 2017, she accepted the award for Favorite Viral Music Artist at Nickelodeon’s Kids’ Choice Awards.
- She spent Thanksgiving in 2019 giving back to her community.
