The untitled project will chronicle Siwa’s personal life and career as a singer, dancer and actor.
“Cameras will get an in-depth look into her creative process as she charts her course as an adult pop star – evolving from the beloved child star audiences adored on screen,” per production company Resilient Content. “JoJo will reveal what it’s like to be one of the world’s most famous 20-year-olds running various businesses, fulfilling a recording deal, and living by herself for the first time. The storylines will emanate from JoJo, told in first person by her and those within her inner circle.”
At eight years old, Siwa first became familiar to TV viewers on the Dance Moms spinoff Abby’s Ultimate Dance Competition . She went on to appear on Dance Moms (which is getting a reboot at Hulu; watch trailer ) and competed on Dancing With the Stars , in addition to serving as a judge on So You Think You Can Dance .
