JoJo Siwa pronounced her after lending her name to a board game for children that some parents consider inappropriate.
Nickelodeon recently launched a board game for kids called ‘JoJo’s Juice’ with questions players have to answer, but the 17-year-old influencer claims she was not aware of all the content.
Page Six reports that some parents were upset to see questions like, “Have you ever walked in on someone naked or has anyone walked in on you?” and “Have you ever gone outside without underwear (a swimsuit does not count)?”
“We respect and appreciate the relationship that JoJo Siwa has with her fans, and take the concern about the game ‘JoJo’s Juice’ very seriously. This game is no longer produced and we have requested retailers to remove any remaining products from their shelves , ” reads a joint statement from Nickelodeon and Spin Master provided to Fox News.
The popular celebrity shared a video message on Tuesday explaining the situation and speaking out unequivocally against the board game.

“When companies make these games, they do not manage all aspects, so I had no idea what kind of questions were on these playing cards,” she continued. “When I first saw it, I was really upset about how big these questions were, so I immediately brought it to Nickelodeon’s attention.”

The star concluded: ‘And since then they have been working to get this game [stopped from] is made and also pulled from all shelves wherever it is sold. I hope you all know that I would never, ever, ever approve or agree to be associated with this game if I were to see these cards before they started selling them. ‘

This is not the first time the star has experienced controversy over a product with her name on it. In June, the Dance Moms star suffered a setback after Claire had to recall her makeup set after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration found that the powder eye shadow tested positive for asbestos, a toxic material that can lead to asbestosis and lung cancer.
