Jojo Siwa Interview
On how she feels about being a part of the Nickelodeon family:
“It’s honestly very exciting to be a part of the Nick family. I’ve been a part of the Nickelodeon family for a little bit now, but it’s really exciting because now I get to release and tell everyone WHY I’m a part of the Nick family and what I’m doing with Nickelodeon so it’s very exciting now that everyone is gonna get to know and see what we’ve been working on…all the awesome, amazing things.”

On what she’s been working on with Nick:
“I’m going to be working a lot with Nickelodeon as you guys probably know. Right now what I can tell you I’m working on is that I’m going to be on School of Rock which is very exciting and we’re filming that soon. I already filmed the Sizzling Summer Camp Special so that’s coming out in the Summer…

“…I’m also doing a docu-style little mini follow me around special – that’s going to be very fun because people are going to get a look into my world. People are going to get to see what a day in the life of me is like. So that’s going to be very exciting.”

More about her upcoming docu-style special:
“What I’m gonna do is basically a non-scripted [show]. It’s literally gonna be just a day in my life – day of what I do my fun, my work, my filming, my collabs – every single thing that I do, my meetings and it’s just gonna be mashed into a 30 minute special.”

Jojo dishes on her favorite Nickelodeon shows:

“If I can go back in time, I like SpongeBob, iCarly, Drake & Josh. If I had to pick my number one Nick show it would probably be iCarly. I will say I do like Nick at Night for Friends and Full House, just sayin’. But obviously for like kids shows there’s Thundermans, Henry Danger, Bella and the Bulldogs, Ricky, Nicky, Dicky & Dawn, Game Shakers. Jagger Eaton’s show which I’m actually slightly secretly obsessed with because it’s hilarious. I love reality shows, I just like seeing real life…”

What it’s like being nominated for her first Kids’ Choice Award and her competition:
“I am up against a lot of good, amazing people [in the Viral Music Artist category]. Carson Lueders, Jacob Sartorius, Johnny Orlando – mostly boys that are also my friends. I’m gonna be happy if any of them win but I’ll definitely be happiest if I win, so hey go vote for me!

What she likes to do for fun:
“The one thing I love to do to just be a normal kid is going down to iFLY at City Walk in Universal Studios. It’s amazing, it’s indoor skydiving and it’s the one semi-dangerous thing my mom will actually let me do.”

She’s got HOW MANY bows?!:
“In my personal collection I have over 700 bows, but I that 2 years ago, so I’m sure I have over 1,000 now.”

On her upcoming book (hitting shelves this October!):
“My book is called “JoJo’s Guide to the Sweet Life #PeaceOutHaterz”. I am SO excited for this book, it’s going to be so, so, so amazing. It’s an inspiring book, it’s an interactive book – I’m super excited about it.”

On staying motivated, inspired, and working hard:
“Honestly, there’s this thing inside me where I set a goal and I want to reach my goal. I want to have success and I work really hard…I know that it’s what I want so I’ve just always wanted to be successful at it.”

Her advice for her Siwanators and anyone struggling with embracing their inner-awesome:
“I would just tell people to just believe in themselves and be confident in themselves…just be confident and be yourself. Someone’s going to love you for who you are.”
