In 2022, JoJo listed Candace Cameron Bure as the “rudest” celebrity she’s ever met for turning down an 11-year-old JoJo’s request for a photo. The Full House alum apologized, and they buried the hatchet. Or so fans thought.
However, JoJo—who came out as a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community in 2021—called her out later that year after Candace said in an interview with The Wall Street Journal that Great American Family, a network where she works as Chief Creative Officer, “will keep traditional marriage at the core.”
“Honestly, I can’t believe after everything that went down just a few months ago, that she would not only create a movie with intention of excluding LGBTQIA+, but then also talk about it in the press,” JoJo wrote on Instagram. “This is rude and hurtful to a whole community of people.”
Candance later addressed her interview comments, saying she has “great love and affection for all people.”
“I had also expressed in my interview, which was not included, that people of all ethnicities and identities have and will continue to contribute to the network in great ways both in front of and behind the camera,” she wrote on Instagram, “which I encourage and fully support.”
