JoJo Siwa has admitted that she’s spent a staggering $50,000 on cosmetic surgery after confessing that she’s a “very insecure” person.
In a resurfaced clip, the 20-year-old “Karma” singer was asked what was the most expensive thing she was wearing at a recent awards show and she replied, “My teeth.”
Referring to her veneers, she added to BuzzFeed: “These motherf–kers cost me 50 grand.”
While it was all in good spirits, the former Dance Moms star has made no secret of her insecurities.
Dancing through life! Joelle Joanie “JoJo” Siwa became a reality star at 9 years old when she competed on the Dance Moms spinoff Abby’s Ultimate Dance Competition during its second season in 2013.

Now, the Nickelodeon star is getting more and more comfortable with her looks and style.
Last week, Siwa shocked fans when she arrived at the Dolby Theatre for the iHeartRadio Music Awards on April 1 wearing a mesh catsuit adorned with black beaded embroidery made to look like flames. Her Kiss-inspired outfit was completed with bat wings attached to her sleeves.

She styled her hair — which she usually wears in a high ponytail — in an intricate mohawk that featured curls and braids. For glam, Siwa rocked a goth-inspired dark lip and had black stars painted around her eyes — just as Gene Simmons and his Kiss bandmates did in the ’70s. The only thing missing was the white face paint.
Simmons, 74, was a fan of the look, telling TMZ, “JoJo is cool. Anybody who doesn’t get it is just jealous, period. Never be ordinary. Always be extraordinary. JoJo is extraordinary and she looks cool. She looks like me, but that’s another story.”
