Let’s talk about rising pop star JoJo Siwa and the “gay pop” genre she’s apparently looking to reinvent.
In a recent Billboard interview, the “Dance Moms” alum shared that when she first signed a deal with Columbia Records, she’d told executives that she wanted to make a “new genre” called gay pop. In her words, it would be like K-pop, but gay pop.
“It’s the songs like ‘Applause’ by Lady Gaga. It’s the ‘On My Own’ [by] Miley Cyrus,” the former child star explained. “It’s that world of music, where it’s not necessarily ‘pop.’”
