JoJo Siwa proved she totally got the joke on Monday morning (May 6) when she posted her reaction to a hilarious segment from this weekend's “Weekend Update” on SNL where cast member Chloe Fineman tried to channel the off-the-charts energy of Siwa's latest transformation.
In a dated Instagram Story post, Siwa, 20, opened up about Fineman's take on her new 'bad girl' persona, writing, 'ICONIC. I literally don't know what to say. This is crazy. 3 and a half minute skit SNL…”
Siwa included a clip of the segment in which Fineman designed the KISS-inspired black and silver bodysuit and face paint from the singer's “Karma” video, while periodically squirming in her chair to the dance floor with a turnt-to action -11 that seemed to surprise co-host Colin Jost. “That's right Colin, I'm a bad girl now!” Feynman said with a snarl while pulling out devil horns.
“I used to be rainbow sparkles… now I'm black sparkles!” Feynman said excitedly. “I look like a figure skater joining a street gang!” In line with Siwa's initial proclamation that she “invented” gay pop, fake JoJo said no one had ever done what she's doing now. “I'm 20 and gay. I'm the first gay girl in the world!'
Fake Siwa then backed up her claim to have invented gay pop, making a mind-blowing gesture as Jose suggested that what she's describing is “just pop.”
Siwa came out strong to announce this new era in April with the new look and attitude, but after comments she made on Advertising sign In an interview about how paving a path for a new brand of LGBTQ-friendly pop raised some questions, the singer clarified her initial statement in a TMZ video. “I think I just want to make it more clear that gay pop is a genre,” Siwa said. “I'm not the inventor of gay pop, definitely not. But I want to be a part of making it bigger than it already is. I want to pay more attention to this… I am not the president [of gay pop], but I might be the CEO or the CMO. I can be the CMO, the chief marketing officer, and use the marketing tactics, whether people like it or not.”
