While JoJo is almost 18-years-old, her fanbase is largely made up of children.
Her merchandise, games, and products are all geared towards her younger fans, including a recently launched card game called JoJo’s Juice.
The game recently went viral on TikTok after mom Heather Watson put some of the game’s inappropriate questions on blast.
JoJo’s Juice, which is marketed to children aged 6+, featured questions like “Have you ever stolen from a store?” and “Have you ever gone outside without underwear on?” which understandably raised red flags for Heather.
One of the more unbelievable questions featured a huge invasion of privacy, asking “Have you ever walked in on someone naked or had someone walk in on you?”
After the video went viral, JoJo took it upon herself to release an apology video to fans, and parents, everywhere.
“Over the weekend, it has been brought to my attention by my fans and followers on TikTok that my name and my image have been used to promote this board game that has some really inappropriate content,” JoJo said in the video.
“When I first saw this, I was really, really, really upset at how gross these questions were, and so I brought it to Nickelodeon’s attention immediately and since then they have been working to get this game stopped being made and also pulled from all shelves wherever it’s being sold.”
“I hope you all know that I would have never ever, ever approved or agreed to be associated with this game if I would have seen these cards before they started selling it,” she assured her fans.
The maker of the game, Spin Master, also confirmed that the game would be pulled from store shelves.
