She’s now ready to talk about why she doesn’t regret her statements. Since the past few months, JoJo Siwa, the internet star, has been publicly called out by Cameron Bure, the actress from Full House, and she has had a lot of time to reflect on it.
During her appearance on episode 27 (July Thursday) of “The Siwa Files, Viall”, I never agreed to change her and you, and I never going to change her and you. I am never able to be a little more open, accepting a little more, to be able to change her. OK, I’m OK with her and you calling out her in that way. In hindsight, her statements gave me a sense of “It stands she said that and by looking back at her public spat with the actress”.
When she was 11 years old, Siwa’s feelings were hurt at the premiere of Fuller House when Bure declined to have a picture taken with her. In a TikTok video posted in July 2022, Siwa privately referred to Bure as the “most impolite” celebrity she had ever encountered.
Eventually, Viall decided not to speak publicly about the actress anymore, and she told him that she wouldn’t talk about Siwa and Bure, the YouTube star, anymore.
Siwa wrote about the time she went down a few months ago, stating that she can’t believe how hurtful and rude her statement calling queer people everywhere “time the at wrote Siwa” was. In an interview with The Wall Street Journal in November, Bure responded to the news by saying that she would not only create a movie with the intention of hurting LGBTQ people, but also talk about it in the press. She also mentioned that her new slate of Christmas films for Great American Family would still focus on traditional marriage at its core.
She said, “I am angry, especially because I got a little bit of that ‘traditional’ vibe from you and I want to make a movie about traditional marriage, but you guys suck and you’re saying too much about LGBTQIA people just to spite them.” She said, “I specifically wanted to make movies that had no representation of LGBTQIA people and I wanted to make a movie that puts down LGBTQIA people.” Siwa Viall said that the intention behind Bure’s exclusion was talked about.
Siwa expressed, “I must support my community,” when she told Viall. She believes there is no need to apologize for expressing a different opinion from someone who does not support her community. Siwa now acknowledges that she previously felt remorseful about her critique of Bure, as she mentioned.
