JoJo Siwa Reportedly Dropped By Her Record Label Almost Two Months After Declaring She's 'Not A Lesbian'

JoJo Siwa has reportedly split from Columbia Records less than a year after signing with the label.

The singer is now promoting her music independently and seeking a new UK label while performing in London. Once listed on Columbia's site, she has been removed, confirming the break.

JoJo Siwa is also focused on her new romance with British reality TV star Chris Hughes, after meeting on "Celebrity Big Brother," where she confirmed she was "not a lesbian."

Siwa has officially parted ways with Columbia Records less than a year after signing with the powerhouse label behind artists like Beyoncé, Adele, and Harry Styles.

The 22-year-old performer released her single "Karma" and EP "Guilty Pleasure" under Columbia's banner in early 2024. However, her latest track, "Bulletproof," was released independently.

According to the Daily Mail, a music insider confirmed the split, noting that Siwa is no longer with Columbia Records.

"She has been in London on the lookout for a new record company to sign with and playing gigs, hoping to impress the right people," the source said. "JoJo is an allrounder, she's a dancer, singer and performer, and being on stage is where she feels most at home."

Currently promoting her new music across London, the "Dance Moms" alum recently performed at Colour Hoxton and is reportedly eager to secure a deal with a UK-based label.

Once featured alongside major names like Miley Cyrus and Halle on the Columbia Records artist roster, Siwa's profile has quietly been removed, further confirming her split from the label.

Reflecting on her creative journey, the former Nickelodeon star shared: "I enjoy messing with the world and singing what I want to sing, I do it all so I can perform on a stage, but it really is my passion."

Siwa has also spoken about her desire to help redefine the pop landscape. "I am not the inventor of gay pop, for sure not," she said. "But I do want to be a piece of making it bigger than it already is. I want to bring more attention to it."

While music remains central to her plans, Siwa has been busy with other ventures. She was recently announced as a contestant on "The Great Celebrity Bake Off" for Stand Up To Cancer and taught a special class at London's iconic Pineapple Dance Studios.

While it's unclear when Columbia Records dropped Siwa, the report comes a few months after the singer made a major confession about her sexuality.

During a conversation with a fellow housemate on "Celebrity Big Brother," Siwa revealed she no longer considered herself to be a lesbian after initially identifying as one.

"I've never - I think I've always told myself, I'm a lesbian. I think you - I think being here - I've realized I am not a lesbian, I'm queer," Siwa told "Rupaul's Drag Race UK" star, Danny Beard.

"And I think that's really cool, I'm switching letters! I've dropped the L and I've gone to the Q, baby! That's what I love about sexuality," she added, per The Blast.

Amid recent shifts in her professional life, Siwa's focus appears to have moved from music to her blossoming relationship with British reality TV star Chris Hughes, whom she met while filming "Celebrity Big Brother."

At the time, Siwa was still dating Australian actor Kath Ebbs, who even flew to the UK to support her at the show's finale. However, their relationship came to an abrupt end at the wrap party.

Following the split, Ebbs opened up about the emotional fallout, calling it "some of the darkest times mentally that I've had in my adult life."

Since then, Siwa and Hughes have grown increasingly close, spending time together in both the US and the UK.

On Wednesday morning, Siwa revealed that she's preparing to meet Chris's family in the Cotswolds.

Speaking to Capital Radio, she shared: "It's going lovely. Lovely, lovely. Yeah, he is just Christopher. He's Christopher. I'm going up to meet his family in the Cotswolds."

She went on to describe their relationship with heartfelt imagery: "You know what's interesting? As hectic as life is, and as much as that noise goes on, I feel like Christopher, and I discovered this beautiful house together."

She added: "And this house is earthquake proof, and it's fireproof, and bulletproof. And you know, we discovered this house and found the keys, and we took the keys and locked ourselves in, and now it's like… You know what I mean? I feel like that with myself, I feel like that with him."

The deepening bond between Siwa and Hughes became even more evident when Siwa opened up about their relationship during an interview with Billboard.

Reflecting on how quickly things evolved between them, the 22-year-old performer said, "It blows my mind that 30 days ago I would never have even imagined that I would be friends with Chris Hughes, that's the weirdest thing, much less be one of the closest people to me now in my life who I would die for."
