ITV is rumoured to have snapped up American superstar JoJo Siwa for the next Celebrity Big Brother series. The performer, nicknamed JoJo from her full name Joelle Joanie, captured hearts when she debuted on season four of Dance Moms on the Lifetime Network back in 2015.

Audiences fell for her buoyant spirit and love for colourful bows—even at just nine years old. Now 21, JoJo is celebrated for her lively charm, quirky fashion choices, and her breakthrough into the music scene.

Sources say the sensation—with a whopping 11 million Instagram followers—has been secured by ITV to grace the Celebrity Big Brother house. "JoJo is a big name among the highly-coveted younger audience and brings with her a big US fan base," an insider spilled to The Sun. "She's one of those names that regular ITV viewers might not know - but certainly will do by the end of the ITV series.

Everyone is excited and hope to get the deal over the line." The pop sensation and dancer made waves with her 2024 single "Karma," where she shed her childhood image for an edgy punk vibe.
