The old JoJo Siwa can’t come to the phone right now. The 20-year-old singer released her new dance pop song “Karma” on Friday (April 5), along with a truly wild music video for the upbeat track that marks an extreme departure from the kid-friendly persona she’s played since finding Dance Moms fame in 2015.
“Karma’s a b-h, I should’ve known better,” the RUclipsr superstar sings on the track. “If I had a wish, I would’ve never effed around/ When I saw the pics of you and her, I felt the knife twist.”
Described as a “180° turn” from her previous music, “Karma” marks Siwa’s first release as part of a full rebrand she’s slowly been teasing on social media over the past few weeks. Gone are the days of hair bows and songs like “Boomerang” or “Every Girl’s a Super Girl.”

Wow it is incredibly disrespectful for her to insinuate she created gay pop
Move over lady gaga
smh we really need to learn our history 😭😭
Like I mean, she even personally knows Todrick Hall….. like it’s one thing not knowing music history or LGBTQ history, but the ALDC literally danced in a music video of his.
@@suicideshy451she clearly hasn’t listened to artpop or the whole born this way album 🤦🏾♀️
Pink? (Even though she's not gay)
Her rebrand is a distraction from the abuse allegations, nothing more.
The way i actually forgot abt the allegations bc of this
Oh I didn't forget. Dressing up as a KISS wannabe isn't making me forget anything
@@devonmunn5728yo, she didn’t even know who Gene Simmons is 😭 she just saw shit and said “I want to dress like that” no historical knowledge of anything, no music appreciation, nothing
What abuse allegations? I know about the “JoJo Siwa supports Colleen Ballinger” but what else is there
@@AshlynVillageit gets mentioned briefly at the end, but Leigha Sanderson (former member of XOMGPOP!) and her mom have semi-recently come out about Jojo and her mom being abusive towards the group and during the creation of the competition show that created the group. There’s more than I can go into in a comment, but one of the worst was Leigha being told to put a maxi pad on when she started bleeding through her belly button so she didn’t get blood on her costume, just a few days before she had to have spinal surgery. She was also made to comeback and film a music video (disco believer) just a few weeks after that same surgery. The kids have also not been paid for any of the social media content they’ve made, as well as not receiving fair percentages/what they were told they’d receive for other jobs.

You silly mf learned this fkn “narcissist” word and now you won’t stop using it for absolutely everything. Painfully online core, never seen the light of day core etc
What baffles me is how she completely ruined the very simple concept of "child star turned bad". Like people in the 2010's were achieving that status _against their will_ and she managed to fuck up doing it on purpose.
Naw ong now every time i see sm like this im js gonna hope they dont turn out like JoJo 😭
I couldn't have said it better myself. Miley and whoever else were trying to evolve as artists, explore new passions and ideas, and were extremely irritated that everyone reduced it to "kid star goes bad, over sexualized, gasp".... But JoJo is actually aspiring to that. It's so..... Shallow.
Ummm it’s cuz it was on purpose helllloooo
@@ewetn1Miley did *not* have the intention of “evolving as an artist” with the image she created for herself a few years back. Her shows featuring her twerking in front of life sized teddy bears is proof of this.
@@justausername5749 her changing era began in 2010 when she released 'can't be tamed'. the bangers era was just ppl being mad for cutting her hair and twerking

Toph crying from the amount of disrespect rn😭😭💀
I've said it before, but I'll say it again. Jojo doesn't really have her own personality. Like what you addressed in this video is so spot on. She's been marketed and presented as a commodity for little girls her whole life, so now that she's trying to be "edgy" it doesn't come off as genuine at all! She's going through the motions of what she and her team thinks a "child/teen star" should be doing; she's trying to give Miley, Lindsay, Britney, Selena... But all it's really giving is the same fake sparkly Jojo just with a black-and-white filter on it. She's never been herself one day in her life! If she came out with something that was really stripped back, wearing less makeup and rhinestones, and going with some acoustic/folk sound I think that would've been received better. It would actually be the opposite of what she's been putting out.
The problem is she is trying to be everything but herself. She want her Bangerz moment(s) but she's not willing to earn them through growth and developement.
it feels like she went from Barbie to Monster High
@@majelalover8837lmao, no you did not! This is so true
@@07Flash11MRCshe probably doesn't even know who she is. She has been a billboard all her life.
Problem is she still cant sing. I don't think you can make acoustic sound authentic with auto tune which is very present in Jojo's songs so pop make sense for her. Even the teaser of her new song (lover/fighter song?) you can clearly tell the original singers voice is most heard especially in the chorus. The blending of the og singer demos with the actual song seems to be a trend in the music industry if you look into it so I absolutely believe that's what happened with her new song.
“I want to start a new genre of music called gay pop” wow what a tone deaf slap in the face to the legacy and works or queer musicians dating all the way back to the advent of the sexual liberation movement of the 70s like Freddie Mercury, Prince, Grace Jones and Elton John to modern day pioneers like Lady Gaga, Adam Lambert, St. Vincent, SOPHIE, Janelle Monae and so so so many others. That statement completely betrays her lack of knowledge of queer music and it’s history and the struggle it took for our voices to be heard AT ALL. I’m sorry but that comment just made me so mad
She REALLY does not know what she’s talking about jajajaja
she is so ignorant 😭
She just screams baby gay who is just finding out about all the culture and, therefore, thinks it's all new because it's new to them.
@@evanalexandr actually she feels more like those online-only baby gays who dismiss our history and try to cancel professors of queer academia for saying the word queer. the twitter kind.
I disagree with the take : "struggle of getting our voices heard at all".
Being a famous artist, especially an entertainer, was one of the ONLY ways to not get wrecked if people found out you were gay (at least in the older Western world). It's one of the only spaces/areas where those voices could be heard and had an impact on the greater society (especially in France).
But I do agree that the comment was ignorant.
The craziest thing about this entire saga is that Gene Simmons isn’t being a dick about Jojo wearing the KISS-inspired makeup
Eh I don't really see why he should even make a big deal about it. It's nothing to make a big fuss about
Give it time
@@devonmunn5728Gene is not a mature adult person
Kids sold there entire IP to a Swedish company for 300m like 2 weeks ago lol that's probably why lol
someone commented on Instagram "when you order KISS from Temu" 🤣
"Dance Moms is the closest we've gotten to a modern Stanford Prison Experiment". Truer words could not have been spoken.
There was a band from the 90’s I loved called Stanford Prison Experiment
So even 15 years ago when stars “go bad” you could tell it was those artists “learning to be themselves” - nowadays when so many people “go bad” it feels all massively produced and planned out.
Yeh she’s a “bad girl” but she’s a corporate bad girl.
💀💀
Like Taylor Swift bad girl era
@@Embrinna She has a bad girl era?
It feels so planned that I think it’s just deliberate cringe (as that’s what the internet talks about) to hide allegations against her, since when you look up Jojo Siwa on google there will be nothing about the allegations, it’s all buried under the memes about the “rebrand”
@@ADWebTV Lol xD
It was her Look what you made me do era xD
"no one has made in my generation this extreme of a switch" and literally nothing has changed.
And extreme switch would be if she started only wearing earth tones and got a job as a bank teller
I was thinking secretary
This is quite funny thank you
The reason she says bitch, but not fucked might be because bitch can be said on network television without issue after 8 pm. The song can be sold for promo commercials or background in an episode of like a cheesy drama.
1000% this. Radio play too.
thats why they make clean versions though, she actually wouldve gotten more press / sales if she had “karma (explicit)” and “karma (clean)” lol
😂😂😂😂😂
@@ihatemickiegee That’s assuming that Jojo is singing. Jojo is pulling a JLo. The track was recorded over 2 years ago by someone else.
She’s acting like her new song is so revolutionary when its in fact been done 200 times before, and much better. I don’t think she’s even comfortable with this tame “rebrand” as her new aesthetic is just black sequins instead of rainbow, she keeps talking about how scared she was (“I was scared to say I was a bad girl”), the music video has extremely sxless (if not cringey) dry hmping and she can’t even bring herself to use the language she clearly thinks is so edgy. “Effed around.” Really? That’s all you can say? She’s also clearly *hyper aware* of the reaction she’s trying to invoke - it’s giving desperate.
It's just Miley's old scrapped song
@@StarlaBizarreright, which makes her comparing this new “era” to Bangerz is even more bizarre to me. Seems as tho she’s literally just trying to copy Miley…but Miley already did this (and much better), and Jojo isn’t adding anything new to the equation at all
@@StarlaBizarre scraped songs from her Disney days 😅😅😅
She completely missed the whole point of the Bangerz album if she thinks it was just for Miley to say “Look everyone! I’m a bad girl now.”
Very Blair St Clair from RPDR.
@@ChillHillsthis is so real
The worst part about all this is Jojo actually going around telling everybody that she wants this to be her own Miley Cyrus Bangerz era. In other words, this is all just a pr stunt, and not a legit progression into adulthood. All the people she’s trying to convince to take her seriously, she just gave them more of a reason to not take her seriously
Bangerz was also highly controversial at the time it came out. It's viewed as iconic now, but wasn't at the time. I was in high school at the time and I remember people comparing Miley to Britney Spears when she shaved her head. Everyone thought she was going off the deep end. You can't have a non-controvercial "Bangerz Moment," which is what I feel Jojo Siwa seems to want
@@erinmelonMiley absolutely woke up one day and intentionally co opted aspects of Black and hip hop culture to communicate her transition into adulthood. The Bangerz era was just as fake and cringe as JoJo’s current era.
@@erinmelon
Miley knew EXACTLY what she was doing.
Don’t be fooled by the bangerz era. Miley Cyrus is an actress at heart. It’s just a persona
@@littlepoodle7443whoosh
@@erinmelon absolutely yes. Like do I think it was stupid. Yes. But was I convinced it was HER? Absolutely.
The raspy voice and the sunglasses on during a podcast/damage control too cool type thing is giving major Gabbie Hanna
I had to mute the video at that point, she's trying so hard and it's so painful to watch
She is so insufferable in that podcast. I saw a clip of her reacting to Tana mongeau making a tik tok of her that literally wasn’t shady but JoJo was being so stuck up and had such an attitude about it that you want to root for Tana because JoJo was being so obnoxious
Poppy went from a blonde, pastel aesthetic (which is a little different from Siwa's image, but they're both similarly feminine) to doing metal with cool, costumy looks. The difference is Poppy understood how to pull off that kind of change and blossom into another type of artist. Jojo just comes off like she's cosplaying what she thinks edgy adults are like
Poppy also has talent, unlike Jojo
Poppy is the goat
Didn't Poppy change her image and music to distance herself from her abuser though?
real i love poppy
@throwawayaccount4008 She got away from her abuser and shifted her image around the same time. I always interpreted it to mean she's finally in charge of her career and doing the kind of music she wants to
I’m sorry but I cannot take the Karma costume seriously. She looks like if someone told an AI to create a mashup of Gene Simmons and Shavo Odajian
Gene Simmons if he guest starred on My Little Pony
😭😭😭😭😭
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought of Shavo when seeing that weird braid that Kayla mentioned at 10:16

@@lesfleursdumal7 nawr Dula Peep exclusively wears adult diapers
Jojo siwa feels like an eternal child which is what makes this rebrand seem try hard. Even though she’s the same age as Miley when she released Bangerz, jojo still seems so much younger like she’s still stuck in a middle school mindset
I thought she was 16, because she looks 4 years younger.
@@Winter-Alpha-Omega her plump baby cheeks makes her more youthful
There’s an interview where she references Lil Nas X praising what she’s doing, which makes me think she is borrowing his shock marketing style. Only issue is his feels fun and authentic, her’s feels like a Nickelodeon writer’s interpretation of a pop star’s bad girl era.
It’s massively “ Nickelodeon being bad” vibes
Lil Nas x, is actually shocking people, Jojo is just going as far as can while not actually offending anyone
@screamingbanshee1282 And for Lil Nas X it actually feels genuine, Jojo's literally smells like PR
I'm reminded of that one Victorious episode where Tori gets the silver wig and new identity.
@@ChroniclesofCuriosity319 Spot on
For the past like 5 years I thought jojo was 14 or something, it’s a very drastic jump from having this like bubblegum princess to emo clown
LMFAOOO not emo clown 😭
IKR JAJAJA it felt like she was a child for SO long
“emo clown” 💀😭
The costume is definitely a dance team costume but it sort of looks like she’s cosplaying as a female wrestler/entertainer from WWE world (which I admittedly know very little about). My first split second thought when I saw it was “is she making fun of KISS?” tho 😂
I immediately thought of when The Undertaker had his "Ministry of Darkness" in 1999 WWE.
She looks like that awkward person in the crowd who was dressed by a friend for laughs!😂
There was a wrestler called “The KISS Demon” and she looks like the reincarnation of that.
ppl clowning on her rebrand and how bad it is but everybodys talking about it and its getting her the attention she wants, so its clearly working
Suuuure for a few days, give or take. The thing about negative attention is it’s short shelf life
I mean... in a Rebecca Black's Friday kind of way. The amount of parody dances i've encountered on the shorts and i have the song stuck in my head against my will
But will it translate into sales? If no one buys the music and product, did it matter. Ok she got down headlines for a bit. But if the album doesn't sell, what then?
You're right she probably does love the attention but you can tell with this rebrand its an attempt to be liked and seen as edgy. All her life she was fine with being cringe and marketing to little girls even into her teenhood and obviously her team loved it so from a money making perspective she is doing amazingly however this is a 180 turn from her old cash grabbing empire. The fact that she is trying to claim "gay pop genre" , gassing herself up that she is some revolutionary artist that done the craziest rebrand, using cheesy pop music, showing her sexuality etc it all screams "PLEASE LIKE ME NOW" as she is trying to appeal to an adult fan base, in particular trying to be an icon within the LGBT community by being over the top. At least with her old brand people came to respect the grind and her relevantly unique style, it was camp and funny. She didn't seem to be trying hard to impress other her age like most preteens/teens do and kept true to her style for years so it was a lot more authentic (ironically cause as I said, she was just slapping her face on products and making millions) now she just seems desperate for lack of better words. And obviously that doesn't work with someone like Jojo who is very out of touch with people her own age.
In a "I cant look away from this horrific traffic accident" kind of way. Nobody is going to buy the debris from the car wreck.

@@eileenbraswell3791But the bad remake or versions yk
the costume is very colorguard does KISS
veryyyy that 😭

PLSS
That many rhinestones are too expensive for a color guard costume but yeah looks like a catalog costume
I can’t help but feel bad for her. Is it cringe? Yes. It’s high cringe. But when your entire life has been as weird as her life has been with every adult around you looking at you as a commodity, shit’s gonna be cringe.
I feel like this is such a bizarre costume when literally all she had to do to rebrand and actually surprise anyone was basically just... nothing. taking out all the crazy hair, all the rhinestones, all the glitter, but her in a sleek dress, or maybe a suit if that's more her thing and boom, surprise.
She'd be so annoying if she wore a suit. She'd act like she's the first woman to ever wear one
She had such a good opportunity and totally missed it

It's not shocking, she was a child star. A few years ago, she was their target demographic.

Not even. She went to FYE while her FRIEND went to Hot Topic
The outfit is literally what “bad” looks like in a child’s mind
Can we focus more on her mother now??
Like holy shit JoJo really didnt have much of a chance.
I agree with you, she's trying to pretend now that she is in on the joke, but she is very much not. She didn't even seem to know who Gene Simmons was when an interviewer asked her about looking like him. She had no clue how cringey this whole thing was, she thought she was dropping BOMBS
my issue is this: when most artists do a rebrand, they don’t constantly bring up the fact they are doing a rebrand. if they want to build suspense with their audience, they either give hints to it by removing old content and then drop their new look, or they just start producing new stuff. Jojo genuinely believes she is doing something original and being such a gay icon for gen z, but in reality nobody cares because it’s super forced on Jojo’s part
I cant believe she said she tryna create ‘gay pop’ like there weren’t a TON of better examples of that
To be honest I think she’s learning her way to being JoJo I’m curious to see how that would translate later later on in her career
I really hate the argument "I'm not being insulting, I'm just stating facts" like you can't fucking ruin someone by saying facts.

@@hazyhope._. my point is yeah, you CAN ruin someone by stating facts. Sometimes, facts ARE ruining. God, people are so slow
For those saying that the rhinestones are childish, I think you can still wear rhinestones and sparkles and still be sexy/edgy. Look at Beyonce, Jlo, Anita, the female regeatton stars, etc. She just has a costume designer that dresses her as if she were 15
A few days ago it was 16 years since Lady Gaga put out “Just Dance” - thought that might be relevant to JoJo saying she’s changing music
Jojo with the classic “I was doing it as a joke!” When you get caught doing something embarrassing
As someone who knows very little of Jojo Siwa, this rebrand strikes me as another failed attempt of trying way too hard. When you're a child star growing into adulthood apparently there's two options: sexy girl who has sex sexually or evil Peter Parker from Spider-Man 3.
I hope it is *her* money, that it is for JoJo as seeing Honey Boo Boo not being able to afford college is vile.
Child stars are terrible but it’s so much worse when it’s the parents

As Kayla pointed out, Jojo has never lived in reality.

Jojos is going through the cringe phase most people had in their early teens, and hers is worse because it so public. she still has a childish view of what's "adult"
Once just once I’d like to see when a former child star leaves their child star status they actually go mature and skip the “edgy” mature phase
I think Zendaya might’ve done that well.
I agree - Zendaya and I think Taylor Swift too.
@@aleciahansen7859yep, Taylor Swift's "rebellious" phase was speak now when she explored different genres and realized that relationships are more than just a fairytale, and that life's ultimate purpose isn't just getting a boy - with songs like never grow up, haunted, long live or innocent

it's not the lack of fluidity in her dancing, it's the lack of Dynamic. It's all one note, all done at 110%, no accents, no nuance, and pause at all for the choreo to breathe
I feel like they are trying to do something like what Miley did i the 2010s with the tongue -out, pot-smoking, rebel girl attitude. But in JoJos case it feels way more cringy and weird.
Well, JoJo has no reason to go through something like that. Miley, much like some other A Lost celebrities who started out as child stars, was trying to free herself from being artistically strngled by Disney. JoJo just wants to copy her for no good reason and without going through and struggle that would be necessary for her to understand why and how Miley did what she had to do in order to survive in the industry.
I guess Jojo really has been having a bizarre adventure, huh?
HER ASS IS NOT A JOESTAR 😭
Lmao 😂
hahaha
The way Jojo still hangs out with Coleen , Shane Dawson Like she is just very misleaded
Reminds me of Maddie Ziegler and her weird codependency "friendship" with Sia, starting when Maddie was still a literal child
she's giving "no mom, i'm 13, i eat unhappy meals now" 😭😭😭
It’s the beard makeup thing for me💀
It reminds me of those maori tattoos they get
Jojo acts like Bangerz came out of absolute nowhere. As if Miley went from the first Hannah Montana album to Bangerz. Yes it was still a big jump. But Miley already had singles, and EP's, and music videos with more explicit themes. It wasn't a 6 yr old audience directly into adult.
If JoJo was caught doing drugs, I don't think people would even bat an eye lid at this point.
This is not Jojo Siwa’s Bangerz era, it’s her Can’t Be Tamed era! 😂
but very poorly done
You explained this situation perfectly. I support an artist wanting to reinvent/rebrand for artistic freedom/expression, but this feels similar to the JLo and Justin Timberlake situation this year in some ways They all lack of ability to understand and navigate what the public really want from them at this point in their careers. They're stepping in it either because of what they're saying/doing or not saying/doing re their promotion and projects. And there isn't people on their teams to tell them the truth. What an interesting year for all of this to happen.
“No one has made THIS dramatic of a change yet” giiiiirrllllll 😂 wherever she lives in her head is a whole other dimension of reality holy fuck
I didn't realize that Jojo was 20. I feel alot of empathy for her now. She's just going through her "rebellious" phase. She'll figure things out. Great video!!
Her level of arrested development is incredible.
tate can definitely sing she literally started out doing youtube covers and blew up originally bc of her singing voice
Once she's mature enough (in her case... 40s?) she'll cringe so hard.
either that or she'll just be depressed once she realises how all her life has been manipulated to push her into this bs
Sorry…did you say Tate McRae can’t sing? I’m not even a fan of hers but I can acknowledge she has a beautiful voice, definitely nothing compared to Jojo musical talent wise
agreed, Tate may not be the greatest vocalist but it's unfair to say she can't sing
Her baby voice-like is annoying
She’s good, I think she had the problem lots of artists had lately (over processing)
She’s a truly terrible person who supports predators! She’s an adult and responsible for her actions!
Fr. The allegations towards her and the xomg pop group should be talked about more than whatever this is
Agreed
well,I don't know if that's true but her attitude isn't kind from what I can see.I hope she learns form her mistakes as she gets older.
@@aporue5893 take this as you will but both James Charles and Colleen Ballinger (problematic people ,,) showed up at her release party for karma there are pictures
She seems to still be friends with them even after the freak shit they’ve done
I’m sorry for commenting twice but my god I’ve never been so embarrassed for anyone in all my life. The cringe I’m feeling is visceral.
Omg it really is! She has zero self awareness. It’s honestly too much.
8:20 girl what? tate mcrae absolutely can sing…
fr, she just sounds off sometimes bc of her asthma
Okay Idk about the Tate McRae slander, she can definitely sing and has been posting songs on RUclips since she was a kid
literally
Jojo really looked at LilNazX's coming out video and went "I wanna do that but lesbian"
hearing her say she wants to "invent gaypop" is the fastest I have ever lost pity for another human being
This such a good deep dive and you summed up all my thoughts on Jojo, Kayla. Its really sad when you think about it because she is another child star that was exploited by adults (i.e. her mother, Abbey Lee) and was allowed to form inappropriate 'friendships" with adults (Colleen & James). And the brainwashing worked because she defends them still and has her own allegations of cruelty towards young girls. I can't remember but she was on a podcast and said something along the lines of being scared of therapy and as outsider looking in, she certainly could benefit from therapy to unpack the bullying & her chaotic childhood.
I thought her face makeup represented a deconstructed (cut apart) bow.
See now that might have been cool
I agree with you. I think this is what she thinks is edgy due to the dance moms background. She was serious with this.
Tate McCrae CAN sing, VERY well. She got famous on RUclips be being an amazing singer. She's also a more than decent writer. I didn't even know all that until I searched her the other day and clicked her old viral videos. The fact she's an incredible dancer just makes her a prodigy. She's not a manufactures music act. She's a true artist.
GABBIE YOU’RE AN ICON!! I’ll look up more of Tate’s older stuff, maybe there’s more I’m missing outside of her commercial radio hits. thanks for the comment !!
dance moms shouldnt have existed lmaoo
“Gene is going to get you Jojo, you need to STOP!” 😅
she looks like a villian they fight in the winx club cartoon
So not an evil mermaid movie. Well that's disappointing.
Man, I really like her image and I couldn't put my finger on it but 10 minutes in it struck me. Eurovision! I like it because it's very Eurovision!
I am shocked you mentioned Tate McRae as an example of ''someone who can't sing'' 😳 I would say she is fully capable of singing live and acoustic/ accapella versions and sounding pretty identical to the recorded vocals. Jojo on the other had can't hold a note to save her life 😬
I had to replay a couple of times to make sure I heard correctly, definitely made her analysis less credible for me
ahahahahaha the beard and the little fangs and the widows peak i can't
I honestly feel so bad for her I always hoped when she turned 18 she would speak out about her mom and dancemoms like jennette mccurdy but I hope she seeks help one day
I think the most cringe thing is that she keeps shouting about how she's 'having a rebrand'. Like girl, you think actual stars say 'Hey look everyone I'm doing a rebrand, come look'. So cringe
She truly looks like she’s auditioning for the next season of drag race. Good for her if she’s having fun, but the fact that she thinks she’s doing something so groundbreaking is truly laughable.
"dance moms is the closest we're going to get to a modern day stanford prison experiment"
😶 facts though could be said for nearly all reality tv
She and JLo thinking they are moguls
ugh you saying tate mcrae can’t sing was a stab to my heart 💔
In some way I feel bad for her. She was a money making machine as a kid she was a brand before anything else & she probably lost her sense of self in the process.
8:20 I didn’t know people thought Tate McRae couldn’t sing.
"Karma Police" at the end? Nice! Your end song choices are always spot on 😌
I feel like lots of people think Tate can sing. She's certainly not on JoJo siwa level bad
Honestly you were just kind enough without digging in I think! And you touched on ALL the points I think people really have problems with in regards to JoJo as a whole..
14:32 LMAOOOOO best part of the video it’s SO true 😂😂😂 Gene is gonna enter the chat soon and his lawyers don’t play 😂
I think it’s important to note that other former child stars who “went bad” didn’t do it on purpose. It wasn’t a publicity stunt, they were either seriously going through something, or they were just growing and being an adult (and people can’t deal with that for some reason). Jojo is doing this on PURPOSE. There’s nothing genuine about this.
I've said this before but I think a better rebrand for her would've been to cater to the "alt" teenagers of tiktok. Dressing harajuku (which is like an exaggerated version of her previous aesthetic) and making hyperpop type of music. That way she could've attracted a more mature audiencie while continuing with her previous line of work.
