JoJo Siwa pulled out all the stops for her Dance Moms co-star’s lavish Italian wedding this week. 

The singer, who also appeared on Celebrity Big Brother, traveled to Italy for her friend Kalani Hilliker’s wedding and posted photos of her stylish trip on Instagram.

For the wedding day, JoJo wowed in a stunning, sparkly gold mini dress with a dramatic cape.

Even in a gorgeous dress and heels, she couldn’t resist showing off her dance skills! She thrilled fans by performing the famous ‘Dance Moms’ Boss Ladies routine alongside Kalani.

JoJo shared a fun video of her and other ‘Boss Ladies’ dancing at Kalani’s wedding! She captioned it saying it felt nostalgic to hear her mom, Jill (from Dance Moms), cheering them on in the background.

JoJo’s boyfriend, Chris Hughes, loved her dance moves so much he left a bunch of heart emojis on her video.

Earlier this week, JoJo wore a form-fitting pink dress to a wedding and shared a selfie of herself in it.

JoJo shared photos from her first solo trip to Italy, calling them ‘golden days.’ She’s now returning home to finish preparations for her upcoming INFINITY HEART tour in Europe, with rehearsals wrapping up next week!

JoJo recently revealed she is ‘craving’ her own wedding to beau Chris.

Twenty-two-year-old singer Karma began dating 32-year-old former Love Island contestant earlier this year. They first connected while appearing on Celebrity Big Brother.

JoJo has admitted their romance is different to anything she’s ever experienced before.

On the Reign with Josh Smith podcast, she shared how happy she is and expressed a strong desire for her relationship to continue flourishing. She said she’s never felt so eager for what the future holds and deeply cherishes the love she has.

‘I’ve never protected a love that I have so much. I’ve never cared about another person so much.

I never dreamed of a big wedding. I always thought I’d just quickly sign some papers or elope to Vegas because I didn’t want a traditional celebration. But now, I’ve changed my mind! I really want a ring, I want my dad to give me away, I want that first dance, and I want to feel excited and happy – and I am!

JoJo, who previously shared she’s pansexual and now identifies as queer, has spoken about the strong negative reaction she received from some in the LGBTQ+ community after she began dating a man, especially considering her past relationships with women.

She explained that it’s been difficult because it feels like some of her own family don’t quite understand. She emphasized that they are an LGBTQIA+ family, and that the core message of the queer community is simply that love is love.

That understanding works both ways. Just because I’m currently in a straight relationship doesn’t invalidate my past experiences or attractions.

I notice women holding hands and showing affection in public, and I’m aware they’re watching me. Sometimes they laugh, point, or look annoyed. Now, people are even taking pictures of me and quickly walking away, or making rude gestures while I’m driving. I’m constantly being observed.

The other day, someone from the LGBTQ+ community approached my studio, gave me the middle finger for around two minutes, and then left.

It’s really opened my eyes to how damaging hate and bullying can be, both from people outside and within our own community. I think everyone should see this because while I can handle it, others might not, and that’s what’s difficult.

JoJo claims she’s not bothered by the negative reactions, but she does worry about the effect this treatment might have on other young people.

She explained that the way older people in the community were acting towards her didn’t bother her at all. She felt happy, loved, and fulfilled, and wanted them to know she was doing well and felt supported.

Honestly, what bothers me most isn’t what’s being said *to* me, but how it impacts those who are younger and looking up to me. I worry about the message it sends to them, seeing this kind of commentary.

If someone at 22 were to say they were attracted to girls, but then a boy they liked came along, it would be a problem if they felt they couldn’t explore that connection because of what others had told JoJo – that she couldn’t change her preferences or fall in love with someone different. The issue isn’t the attraction itself, but the feeling of being restricted by others’ expectations.

‘It doesn’t affect me, but it affects the people that are not me that see the bullying.

Everyone should be careful with the language they use. This applies to all topics, not just sexuality, my personal life, or my relationships – it’s a general principle.
