I can't stand her. My mum knew her mum, and the whole thing is just one big facade.
She tells everyone that she grew up in a low-income home. She didn't. They had tons of money, but it all went into making her a star, because in America, talent doesn't matter.
Her mum called me a failure at one point, I was 6 years old and I couldn't sing that well.
So now Jojo gets a deal, and EVERYONE just needs to keep bringing up that she's 13, 14 now. All the more reason she shouldn't be singing about boys cars being fly, and loving a boy for who he is. I'm 14 myself, I know how most of the American girls my age think.
Another thing that bothers me..her whole "I'm-so-sweet-and-innocent-and-mature" act that she pts on during interveiws. Back when they lived in Massachusets, her mum used to call the local paper every day to beg for them to put Jojo in it. So, one day they gave in. They brought her to the building, and she was so rude. She was stuck up, and she really made a lot of the adults mad.
Plus her talent is studio done. I've heard her sing without any instruments in real life, she's got horrible range.
I know I may sound jealous, but I;m not, I'm really annoyed. Her and her mum are the biggest fools in pop..next to Peter Andre.

She freaks me the fuck out. It's like the spirit (and face) of a chain smoking, hyper cynical New York harridan, in the body of a twelve year old. Her voice is alright but all technique and no heart.

She bothers me slightly mainly because Baby It's You is one of the worst songs EVER but she appears fairly ok in her interviews. Mature but not pretentious.

But she's only 13, 14 now! Give her a break!
It's so refreshing to hear that you are not bitter and jealous about your former friends success.

She's disturbing but then she's only got one good song to her name. Baby It's You is indeed absolutely fucking awful.

I'm still not totally convinced that JoJo isn't Elijah Wood in drag.

She's certainly no Billie Piper, that's for sure. JoJo is such a stupid name too. It rhymes with Ho Ho and the record label should always take that into account when they rename their slaves.

Neil Kulkari's article about her in the latest issue of Plan B is magnificent, easily amongst the finest manifestations of the Popjustice ethic i've ever read. Really worth having a nose at if you can get hold of a copy.

She looks like she'd be stuck up... even with the studio work I don't particularly enjoy her music. Her music videos... what's the whole "dancing around in a fairground" thing about? The only reason all the guys are looking at her is because she's doing some funky little dance... I mean who does that in a fairground? Pah! Anyway... as for you, I thank you so much lol... I also feel sorry for you partly knowing her. As for her mother saying that to you, that shows pure ignorance, you probably have a better voice than her daughter has any day!

I totally agree! I mean, she was only 13 when that 'Leave' or whatever it was called single was out...... wasnt she a bit too young to be singing about a complicated relationship?! Plus, her name sucks..... it makes her sound like a character off the Tweenies!

She is somewhat over-sexualised for a 14 yr old child.

I seen some pics of her in one of those celeb mags with Christina Aguilera and she thought she was better than Xtina. Jojo will end up pregnant by the time she's 15.

My dad drove me to school this morning and Leave was on the radio. He sung along to the whole song and even did the adlibs at the end. I was so desperate to get out of the car that I was on the verge of biting my way through the bodywork.

I'm sorry but however studio-enhanced her voice may be, she can still definitely sing. Nobody's voice can be enhanced THAT much, she must have some form of talent. I have her album and it's REALLY good no matter how manufactured it is. I sense *jealousy* !

She's from a town like 40 mins from my house... I really can't stand her though, when she's on t.v. shows singing live, she sounds so much lower, you can tell they edit her.

She is somewhat over-sexualised for a 14 yr old child. Definitely. It's like mini-pops all over again.
