“If there’s someone getting picked on, be nice to them and be helpful to them.”

I should be on Broadway. You have to sing, you have to dance, you have to speak well, and I’m good at all of those!

I’ve always just worn bows. They just got bigger and better and sparklier – and then I became ‘JoJo with the bow bow,’ and it became a thing.

There’s always time to grow older. You can never grow younger.

I’ve always kind of just had a big personality and a voice that I wanted heard.

When I’m 19, I’ll still be living with my mom, but I’m going to be doing music and acting. I can picture it really vividly.

By the time I left ‘Dance Moms,’ I’d made so many friendships.

I tell myself I can’t have off days.

People call me energy in a bottle.

Anything can go wrong, but you can’t think about it all the time. You have to enjoy every moment.

If you are wearing a JoJo bow, you are a Siwanator. If you are a Siwanator, then you are nice, powerful, confident, and believe in yourself.

When I plan ahead, I don’t just plan what I’m doing tomorrow. I also plan what I’m doing five years from now.

I have experienced a lot of online bullying because I am homeschooled.

It’s a very hard goal. But, what I want is to tell people who are getting bullied to stand up to the bully and not let it be OK – tell a teacher, the principal, or your parents. I want people to stand up and to be confident.

Always have a black bow, a white bow, a rainbow bow – those bows will match literally just about everything!

Boomerang’ is all about coming back from the hate and not listening to the hate. It really tells a message.

Honestly, it’s hard to deal with the haters, but something that has helped me is not to focus on the haters and to focus on the nice people!

I am still bullied occasionally. However, none of my current bullies really exist. They’re all in my head. Be your own best friend instead of your worst enemy.

Like all bullies, they’re cowards underneath the swagger.

I was bullied by a few people who were much older than me. I went to camp to learn boxing. I was 12, and my coach was 24. I felt like if I could fight him, I could stand up to anyone.

I wasn’t bullied by the mean girls in high school. I’m just bullied by adults and teenagers all over the world.

I was so skinny, they gave me the nickname stechetto – the stick. I was tall, thin, ugly and dark like an Arab girl. I looked strange. All eyes. No flesh on my bones.

I allowed myself to be bullied because I was scared and didn’t know how to defend myself. I was bullied until I prevented a new student from being bullied. By standing up for him, I learned to stand up for myself.

I have experienced a lot of online bullying because I am homeschooled.

I get bullied a lot on social media, and it’s terrible.
