JoJo On The Tabloids

The Associated Press caught up with JoJo in a Q&A, and asked the 15-year-old singer with so much attention paid to younger stars in the tabloids, how she’s largely avoided that. “I hear so many stories. I mean, people just don’t know,” she said. “There are a lot of girls who you would think are great role models who are younger than 18 or some are under 21. They are still young, but they are in these clubs and they are doing things that you just don’t expect. But with me, my mom is so close to me, and she’s not one of those mothers who would just let things slide. She’s there with me all the time. I don’t go to a lot of parties, I’m not out late. She makes sure that I get sleep and that my school is done.”
