Jojo has reinvented herself, recently debuting a new song and an edgier music video.

The former children’s pageant contestant ditched her bubblegum image for a more goth look.

Now, Fox TV has released a new ad promoting his debut as a judge.

In the quick clip posted to Instagram, the 20-year-old showed off her new style in a black shirt and black jacket covered in patches that say Karma – the title of her new single.

JoJo added some pink sunglasses and gold chains around her neck to complete the look.

In another brief photo, JoJo kept her motif black, in a sleeveless shirt that exposed her tattoo-covered arms.

Once again, the word Karma was emblazoned on his chest.

In the comments section, fans criticized the show for bringing in JoJo and changing the format of the competition.

“I’m not watching. And JoJo is a HELL NO,” one person declared. “I would rather you cancel the show rather than continue to change it for the worse.”

“So horrible what they did to this show,” shouted someone else.

“She doesn’t even know how to dance, what is she doing judging the show??” a third asked.

“Ruined last time for me and now again!” a quarter finished.

THINK TWICE

In fact, this isn’t the first time JoJo has joined the So You Think You Can Dance team.

It’s also not the first time she’s been trolled by viewers.

JoJo previously joined SYTYCD’s 17th season in 2022 as a new panelist – and was criticized for her suggestions.

After her appearance, social media users criticized JoJo for spending too much of the show on her reactions and notes.

In addition to the length of her speeches, the volume of her voice compared to others also angered some, with many begging for the microphone to be turned off or for her to tone down her enthusiasm.

One angry fan wrote: “Jojo’s mic is on 10 and I’m going to need it on 2.”

A second tweeted: “I know the Jojo Siwa thing is the verbal version of typing everything in all caps, but we still have a whole season left and I’m already overwhelmed.”

A third said: “If JoJo doesn’t stop talking I’m going to have to watch it on mute!”

JOJO NO-NO

Fans also asked JoJo’s new personality to remain silent.

The former reality TV star recently debuted a raunchy music video for her new song, Karma.

The video shows JoJo dressed as a member of the Kiss Army, dancing seductively with another woman.

The women hug and end up on the floor, where their partner licks JoJo’s neck.

JoJo sparked more controversy in a section early in the video when she ran from the right side and fell in mid-air.

Several fans claimed she used a “stunt double” for the move, as the video quickly cut to the next scene.

With lyrics like “Karma is ab***h, and she’s with you now,” JoJo is clearly ready to embrace an older image.

‘WHAT IS HAPPENING?’

Online, fans expressed their concern for the previously healthy child.

“WHAT IS GOING ON WITH JOJO SIWA?” one person asked in all caps.

“I feel bad for JoJo,” lamented another. “Her whole ‘brand’ was so ‘over the top,’ but it was cute. It was like Punky Brewster on steroids.

“However, I don’t think this is a good direction. It seems like she is ‘imitating’ a ‘pop star’, not finding her own way.”

A third person encouraged: “Claim your grown girl, but this is a dumpster fire concept.”

Others were offended by JoJo’s makeup makeover and outfit choice.

“Did Gene Simmons have a garage sale?” one person scoffed.
