Just when we thought the battle of the blondes was over, the bell has rung for another round!
2010s child star JoJo Siwa thought she had settled her tiff with ’90s child star Candace Cameron Bure back in August, but after a new homophobic twist in the saga, Siwa is jumping back into the octagon.
The former Full House kid and current mediocre Christmas actress recently announced her departure from the Hallmark Channel in favor of a new network, “Great American Family“. If it sounds like a MAGA buzzword soup, that’s because it probably is!
She’s joined the channel as chief creative officer in a desire to “promote faith programming and good family entertainment” that will “keep traditional marriage at the core.” This move just happens to coincide with Hallmark preparing to release its first LGBTQ led Christmas film, The Holiday Sitter, on December 11th.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
Siwa, in her young queer wisdom, saw right through to the actress’s homophobic motivations:

“I can’t believe after everything that went down just a few months ago, that she would not only create a movie [channel] with intention of excluding LGBTQIA+, but then also talk about it in the press,” she writes. “This is rude and hurtful to a whole community of people.”
Former Full House co-star Jodie Sweetin chimed in in the comments, writing “You know I love you” with a couple heart emojis for good measure.
Siwa kept the good times rolling in her Instagram story, laughing at the actress’s messy announcement.
“Her article thing… I’m genuinely dying laughing over it,” she says. “It says ‘I think the Great American [Family] will keep traditional marriage at the core.’ It’s just embarrassing! I’m just embarrassed for her.”
She mainly couldn’t believe that any Bure representative had signed off on that comment in 2022 (though who knows what quality representation Bure could possibly have).
“No harm, no hate,” she starts, “but it just is hilarious to me that somebody — I mean, it is a quote coming from Candace — but somebody was like, ‘Yeah, that’s a great idea.'”

Siwa is far from the homophobic holiday has-been’s only detractor in this move. GLAAD and its CEO Sarah Kate Ellis got her together in an official statement.
“It’s irresponsible and hurtful for Candace Cameron Bure to use tradition as a guise for exclusion,” she writes. “Her statement is harmful and insulting to LGBTQ employees, as well as employees with LGBTQ friends and family.”
In addition to the ethics of the situation, Ellis suggests potentional partners of the network to think about their own images.
“Actors, advertisers, cable and streaming platforms, and production companies should take note and seriously consider whether they want to be associated with a network that holds exclusion as one of its values.”

The pic of CCB sure makes her look like she has ice in her veins . She’s a mediocre “actress”.. She and her brother are passe child stars and glommed onto the religious bandwagon – because
we all KNOW how many low life , treacherous , con artist , creepy ,criminals populate religious instiutions ,which provide a perfect opaque cover for such low life sleaze.. The religious celebs can recite Bibcial / Talmudic /Koranic passeges- but they’re frauds and charlatans…

A gaff is underwear designed specifically for tucking. Tucking is the practice of arranging and supporting external genitals between the legs via clothing like gaffs. Some women, transfeminine folks and femme-of-centre folks choose to wear a gaff underneath their day-to-day clothing in order to smooth out the appearance of their pelvic area. There are other ways to tuck, such as using sports tape to tape the genitals in place, however, taping can severely restrict easy opportunities to pee!

CCB reminds me of one of those porcelain King Charles Spaniels. Her eyes have that glassy look.
