JoJo Siwa Says She Was ‘Used’ for Views and ‘Clout’ Following Avery Cyrus Breakup

JoJo Siwa is seemingly calling out her ex-girlfriend, TikTok creator Avery Cyrus.  

In a clip posted to her mom Jessalynn Siwa’s Instagram Stories on Monday, the 19-year-old appeared to address her split from Cyrus after three months of dating. Jessalynn asked her daughter why she was upset as she paced back and forth in a room. 

“’Cause I got used!” JoJo said. “For views and for clout, and I got tricked into being told that I was loved, and I got fucking played!”

While JoJo did not directly name the TikTok creator in the rant, Cyrus later spoke with People about the viral video. Cyrus explained that her relationship with JoJo ended in an amicable place. “From my perspective, me and JoJo left on great terms and are still friends. The relationship was very real and I have nothing but love for JoJo and her family. I’m still very hurt that JoJo broke up with me and am saddened and confused by the situation.”

Siwa and Cyrus were romantically linked in August after the “Hold the Drama” singer’s on-and-off relationship with Kylie Prew. The couple became social media official following a TikTok video of them together. “Happiest girl,” Siwa captioned the clip. 

One day after confirming their relationship, Cyrus and Siwa made their red carpet debut. They attended the opening night of Alanis Morissette’s jukebox musical Jagged Little Pill at the Pantages Theatre in Los Angeles. At the event, the two smiled ear to ear as they packed on the PDA.
