JoJo Siwa celebrates a dubious victory by beating out Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, and Ariana Grande for the most disliked music video by a female artist in 2024.
- July 20, 2024
AceShowbiz - In a TikTok video, 21-year-old JoJo Siwa proudly announced her "record-breaking" achievement: Her music video for "Karma" has garnered an astonishing 3.1 million dislikes, the most of any female artist this year.
Siwa, dressed in her signature flashy attire, reveled in the dubious honor, stating, "I'm the only person that can say I beat Taylor Swift on a list of something." She added, shrugging, "I'll take it."
Her numbers, corroborated by an online dislike viewer, revealed that Ariana Grande's "Yes, And?" received 290,000 dislikes while Katy Perry's "Woman's World" had 330,000 (now up to 550,318). Taylor Swift's "Fortnight" attracted 350,000 dislikes.
Siwa's "victory" comes three months after she released "Karma," a polarizing single that has generated countless memes and a "Saturday Night Live" sketch. Despite the negative reception, Siwa remains optimistic, declaring in the TikTok caption, "A WIN IS A WIN."
The single was released after Siwa's rebranding to an edgier image from her signature ponytail look. Her decision to find a silver lining aligns with her recent declaration to make "gay pop" a more prominent genre. In April, she told TMZ, "I am not the inventor of gay pop, for sure not. But I do want to be a piece of making it bigger than it already is."
