Chris Hughes' kind words move JoJo Siwa to tears
In a heartfelt Instagram video, JoJo Siwa explained how Chris Hughes, 32, unknowingly helped her heal from longtime insecurities.
She said she burst into tears when he complimented her hair, unaware of the ridicule she had faced online for years.
“He had no idea of the 2017-2020 hairline memes, that I’m not affected by on the daily anymore, but him saying this out of thin air literally finished healing a part of me,” JoJo wrote.
“It’s almost like I had a band aid over it for the last 8 years and just was leaving it there scared to look under it to see if it’s healed and he removed it being like why do u have this on before I could even explain what it was,” she added.
JoJo has previously spoken about her struggles with hair loss. In a TikTok video, she explained that the bald spot near her hairline was caused by stress during her time on Dance Moms.
