JoJo Siwa's net worth: From Dance Moms to CBB, here's how the dancer has made her eye-watering fortune
We've been hearing JoJo Siwa's name quite a lot recently, following her Celebrity Big Brother appearnance in April. She's now said to be in a relationship with former Love Island star Chris Hughes, who she was pictured kissing while on holiday in Mexico. Prior to this, JoJo has had quite the career, and at 22, she's already a millionaire. But, what exactly is her net worth? And how did she make her millions? Read on for everything you need to know. According to Celebrity Net Worth, JoJo has an estimated net worth of $20 million (£14.8 million). JoJo rose to fame on Dance Moms, which she officially joined in 2014. She stayed on the show until 2016, and returned for a brief cameo in 2019. Back then, the dancer was known for her high energy and her bow wearing, which she was able to leverage into a successful YouTube career and partnership with Nickelodeon in 2016. She also went on to launch her own merchandise including popular hair bows, toys, and clothing. Forbes has estimated sales of $400 million (£336 million) for JoJo's hair bows alone. The pricing ranges from $5 to $16 per bow, which when making a conservative estimate, comes to $400 million. JoJo previously opened up about her business acumen, telling Forbes in 2020: "Early on, Nickelodeon wanted to have a meeting, where they discussed big business, and they wanted to do it without me. My Mom and I said, 'That's not how it works. We've been in this together since day one.' "And in that meeting Pam, who is the head of consumer products, said, 'Just so you know, if this t shirt doesn't sell then it's all over. That was why I didn't want you here.' Now, every time I see her I laugh and say, 'How'd that t-shirt sell?'" The t-shirt was a huge success, and JoJo has since launched multiple products. Since appearing on Dance Moms, JoJo has released songs including "Boomerang" and "I Can Make U Dance". In early 2024, JoJo Siwa made a bold return to music with the release of "Karma," her first major single in years. The song marked a dramatic shift from her signature, colourful look. While the transformation sparked mixed reaction, it introduced JoJo to a wider audience with the star hinting that the song is just part of a larger project that will continue to reflect her evolving creative direction. Over the years, JoJo has grown her YouTube channel to over 12million subscribers. She has over 2.4 billion views on YouTube, 8.6 million followers on Instagram, over 436,000 X (Twitter) followers, over 17.3 million followers on TikTok and over 572,000 likes on Facebook. Whoa that's a lot of numbers. Most recently, JoJo appeared on the 2025 series of Celebrity Big Brother in the UK, from which she's said to have been paid a whopping £400,000 for the 19-day stint. An insider told The Sun: "US TV gigs generally pay a lot more than their UK counterparts, so JoJo's team will expect a minimum amount of money on the table to even consider the offer from CBB bosses." JoJo has also taken part in The Masked Singer, Celebrity Family Feud, and Dancing with the Stars as part of the show's first same-sex pairing with Jenna Johnson. She finished in second place and was reportedly given a signing on fee of $125,000 (£92,000), which can increase depending on how long the contestant remains in the competition, potentially reaching a total of up to $295,000 (£218,000). In February 2020, at just 16 years old, JoJo Siwa purchased a $3.5 million (£2.6 million) Mediterranean-style mansion in Tarzana, California. The 6,000-square-foot home featured a gourmet kitchen, French doors, a pool, and a sports court, as well as a "Fun Room" including a candy bar. JoJo sold the property for $4.1 million (just over £3 million) in February 2025. It's pretty clear the dancer and media personality is making bank, and if she continues with her popularity, Celebrity Net Worth predict that JoJo could be worth between $50-100 million pretty soon!

JoJo Siwa's cosy night in with Chris Hughes - and their unexpected date activity
Love Island star Chris Hughes and singer JoJo Siwa enjoyed a cosy night in together recently, with the former Celebrity Big Brother housemates posting about it this week Fans have been given an insight into JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes ' relationship this week. It comes after the former Celebrity Big Brother housemates reunited just a few days ago when JoJo made her awaited return to the UK. JoJo, 22, and Chris, 32, have continued to update fans on their relationship following reports last week that they were seen kissing in Mexico. There had already been much speculation over their relationship in recent weeks after they grew close whilst in the Big Brother house last month. This week, they have given fans a glimpse at what they have been up to together following JoJo's return to the UK. Chris took to Snapchat this morning to reveal that they were watching Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? together. He posted several clips of them watching Sunday night's episode of the ITV show. The footage centred on the million pound question, which faced contestant Nicholas Bennett, who made it all the way to the final question on the quiz show. The question read: "Which of these words, each coined by a famous writer, was derived from the title of a fairy tale about three princes?" The answer options given to him were 'pandamonium', 'serendipity,' 'utopia' and 'yahoo'. In his first clip, Chris said: "This is the million pound question. He's got two lifelines left. This is incredible." JoJo teased that Nicholas "has to" get the right answer, with her and Chris then providing further commentary over the scene. Nicholas, after using his remaining two lifelines, ended up choosing 'yahoo' as his answer. It was however revealed that the correct answer had been 'serendipity'. Responding to the news, Chris said "s***" whilst JoJo reacted: "No!" Chris went on to share reaction from one of his followers, who wrote to him: "Told ya! Serendipity! That's how you and Joelle met. Serendity!" He shared the comment alongside a definition for the word which read: "The occurrence and development of events by chance in a happy or beneficial way." The former Love Island star read out the message he had received from the fan to JoJo - whose first name is Joelle. JoJo said: "And that was the million dollar question." She added: "That's really cute." Chris agreed, commenting: "Really is." Just hours before those posts, Chris had teased that he was cooking a meal for JoJo. He later shared a photo of a table with their meals, with a vase full of roses visible on the side of their bowls and a lit candle nearby. Earlier today, but seemingly posting about the same meal, JoJo told fans: "I've genuinely never had anything better." And alongside a clip of Chris cooking in the kitchen, she later wrote: "Longggg day on set made worth it for this." JoJo also paid tribute to Chris in a Q&A on Instagram tonight. When asked to share her "favourite thing" about him, the former Dance Moms star said: "Gosh lots of things, but the first thing that comes to my mind is the way he treats everyone." She added: "Strangers, friends, family, me, literally everyone. I've never seen somebody who acknowledges everyone in the room the way he always does. Everyone gets a hello everyone gets a how are you doing ... and it's genuine. Beautiful beautiful soul he is."
