JoJo Siwa is truly done with her rainbow era.
The former Nickelodeon star went dark at the 2024 iHeartRadio Music Awards on Monday in Los Angeles. The singer and actress wore a crystalized black bodysuit with combat boots, and distinctive makeup for the event.
Siwa’s bodysuit featured bat-like embellishments on the arms, as well as sheer and mesh panels throughout the body. The bodice of the suit featured a flame design. “This is, giving you black beast,” Siwa said on the carpet. “This costume is my baby.”
