EXCLUSIVE I was pressured into calling myself a lesbian. This is the truth about me and Chris Hughes: In her only interview JO JO SIWA reveals what REALLY happened after Celebrity Big Brother - and the ex she publicly dumped
JoJo Siwa is sitting in a high chair, having her make-up done for the YOU photoshoot. The process doesn't take long: some eyeshadow, mascara, foundation – it's all finished in less than 20 minutes. A metre or so away I am on the sofa with her publicist. 'God, she's got such good skin,' I say. There's a pause. 'Well, yeah,' replies the PR, 'she's only 22'.
For the unaware, the dancer-turned-entertainer-turned-singer is arguably the most successful child star born in the 21st century. (And this year JoJo has become known for her appearance on Celebrity Big Brother and her consequent relationship with the former-er . But more on that later.) Hers is a staggering, spangled story. That of a girl who went on reality television when she was nine; by 13 had released albums and acted in films; at 15 presided over a billion-dollar business and sold 90million hair bows to children across the world; who sold out 's O2 Arena aged 16; and who now – at 'only 22' – has to work out what to do next.
