JoJo Siwa Responds to Miley Cyrus' Pride Month Closet Joke

JoJo Siwa responded to Miley Cyrus' controversial joke made during a World Pride event, where Miley quipped about bringing JoJo "back out" of the closet amid JoJo's new relationship with Chris Hughes. Miley's comment, seen as bi-erasing by many fans, sparked a backlash, especially given JoJo's evolving queer identity and recent public relationship announcement. JoJo, who has long admired Miley, expressed initial hurt but clarified she believed Miley's remark was a poorly executed joke rather than ill-intentioned. She shared a heartfelt Instagram post featuring childhood photos and praised Miley as an inspiration while emphasizing the importance of self-love and acceptance during Pride Month. JoJo also revealed she reached out to Miley privately, receiving a warm and conciliatory response, "All love. Always." The exchange highlights ongoing conversations about queer identity, visibility, and respect within the LGBTQ+ community and among public figures.
