JoJo Siwa revealed she has had at least one cosmetic tweak.
The singer, 20, who said she’s created a ‘gay pop’ music genre, opened up about her new and improved look at the 2024 GLAAD Media Awards in March.
When asked by BuzzFeed what the most expensive thing she was wearing, the Dance Moms alum answered ‘My teeth. These motherf***ers cost me 50 grand.’
The Karma singer opened a bit more about her new smile on a TikTok livestream Question and Answer session.
‘Why are my teeth so white?’ she repeated the written query.

‘Because I picked out the whitest color,’ she added.
‘They are veneers,’ she added, before clicking her teeth.
Dental veneers are ‘custom-made shells that fit over the front surfaces of your teeth. They conceal cracks, chips, stains and other cosmetic imperfections,’ according to the Cleveland Clinic.
In the recent past, the reality TV star has admitted to suffering from insecurities in various aspects of her life.
‘I judge myself at everything. I’m a very insecure person,’ she revealed in an episode of Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test.
‘Everything gets judged. You know, people told me I have a receding hairline; they don’t know that I have a stress rash and that’s why I’m balding right here.
‘A 12-year-old shouldn’t have a stress rash on their head that makes them bald, but I did,’ she added.
Siwa’s fans accepting her racy new Karma single has helped her rebrand her image and boost her confidence.
‘Can’t believe Karma has been #1 trending on YT now for over 24 hours,’ she wrote after the song’s April 5 debut.

‘My mind is BLOWN and I’m just beyond grateful and excited for the moment and the future. Thank you for all of the LOVE and support as I enter this new world and bring you along with me.’
Some of her followers have admitted not being comfortable with her bold new style, but the young artist is taking it in stride.
‘People are afraid of things they don’t know,’ she told E! News at the iHeartRadio Music Awards, where she wore a look inspired by Gene Simmons of Kiss.
The cosmetic procedure could be part of the Karma singer’s rebranding efforts. The racy single was the #1 trending video on YouTube after its release

‘Things can be scary for people. New things can be very, very scary.
‘Creating art is such a special, special thing,’ the former child star told the outlet, ‘and I’m very lucky that I get to be one of the people in the world that gets to create art.’
Getting validation from stars she admires, such as Meghan Trainor and Lil Nas X, has helped the So You Think You Can Dance judge feel comfortable in her new skin.
‘Some of the most respected people in the world have come up to me and been like, “What you’re doing right now is so right. It is what the world needs, and I’m learning from what you are doing right now.”‘
