Celebrity Big Brother is set to grace our TV screens once more and there's already a buzz around who might be entering the house in the latest series.
The hit British reality TV show is slated to make a comeback on ITV on April 7 with hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best once again at the helm. JoJo Siwa has emerged as the most recent celeb tipped to join the line-up inside the Celebrity Big Brother house.
Fans have reacted with astonishment, voicing a recurrent grievance upon hearing the news reported by Super TV via X. They shared an image of Jojo captioned "The latest celebrity to reportedly sign a huge deal to enter the Celebrity Big Brother House next Monday... is JOJO SIWA. No, this isn't April Fools either! The Sun have very reliably stated that the deal is almost done."
At the time of writing, the tweet has attracted 291,700 views, garnered 1,100 likes and sparked over 100 comments, revealing a consistent sentiment among fans regarding JoJo Siwa. Some X users response was a straightforward "Who?"
One fan expressed: "Literally no idea who this person is. How is she a celebrity in the UK?"
Another added their view:"Might as well have an ordinary member of the public because most seem to have no idea who this 'celebrity' is." A third chimed in their disbelief: "???? this has to be the most unexpected celeb ever."
A fourth tossed in their opinion: "Not many people here know her. But it's another reality 'celeb', and that doesn't compel me to watch."
JoJo, a 21 year old US singer, actress, and social media influencer, shot to fame after appearing on Lifetime Network's Dance Moms in 2015. Born Joelle Joanie, she then signed with Nickelodeon in 2017, starring in shows such as JoJo Siwa: My World, The J Team, and The JoJo and BowWow Show Show.
Her music repertoire includes hits like Boomerang (2016), Nonstop (2020), Worldwide Party (2023), and Karma (2024). In 2021, JoJo publicly identified as part of the LGBTQ+ community on social media.
Boasting a massive online presence with 45 million TikTok followers and 11 million on Instagram, she has become a digital sensation. Upon hearing the news of her possible participation in Celebrity Big Brother, some fans took to X to share their excitement and thoughts.
One user posted: "I've heard the name but don't know much about her, which isn't a problem as that's exactly how I felt about some iconic signings of the past, and she will bring a lot of social media attention to the show which is good." Another user chimed in, saying: "Perfect cbb housemate. She's gonna ruffle some feathers because she's young, American, loud and gay! I think we'll see a lot more to her and not just her public persona."
A third user reacted with skepticism, commenting: "I am convinced this is an April fools joke because there's no way they got her, if they did I will be very glad to watch her."
