Actress, dancer and YouTuber JoJo Siwa recently addressed her feud with actress and outspoken Christian Candace Cameron Bure last year.

As Christian Headlines previously reported, Siwa called Bure of being the ‘rudest celebrity’ she has ever met in a TikTok video last year. At the time, Bure managed to speak with Siwa on the phone and learned that Siwa made the declaration because at a red-carpet premiere of Fuller House, when Siwa asked Bure for a photo, Bure declined, saying, “Not right now.”Bure apologized to Siwa for her incident.

During an interview on Nick Viall’s (The Bachelor, The Bachelorette) podcast, The Viall Files, Siwa once again denounced Bure, only this time for comments she made after leaving the Hallmark channel for the Great American Family network last year.

“I think that Great American Family will keep traditional marriage at the core,” Bure told the Wall Street Journal at the time.

Bure’s comment came in response to a question by the Wall Street Journal about whether GAF would feature LGTBQ+ love stories like the Hallmark channel began doing.

Siwa, who is queer, argued that Bure’s words were “rude and hurtful to a whole community of people,” ChurchLeaders.com reports.

When asked how things stand between her and Bure, Siwa said, “It’s interesting,” noting that she has nothing against religion.

“I grew up super religious. And I mean, I still have faith. I still believe,” Siwa said. She added that she takes no issue with movies depicting “traditional marriage with a man and a woman.”

However, Siwa argued that Bure’s comments on traditional marriage were her attempt to “put down LGBTQIA [people], and she was specifically going to make movies that had no representation of LGBTQIA which is finebut it’s fine if you’re doing it because it isn’t your movie’s storyline.

“But when you’re doing it out of spite to say that too much is about LGBTQ right now ‘you guys suck, and I want to make a movie about traditional marriage and you’re not traditional’ that got to me a little bit,” Siwa added.

“It gave me a little sense of like, okay, you and her are never going to agree. You and her are never going to be friends. You and her are never going to get along,” Siwa told Viall. “I’m never gonna be able to change her. She’s not gonna be able to change me. We can both just live life. We can both just have fun.”

“I wish she was able to be a little more open, a little more accepting,” Siwa went on. “I’m okay with calling her out in the way that I did. For a while, I regretted it, but after I found that article about her not wanting anything to do with LGBTQIA [people]that’s my people, you know what I mean? I gotta stand up for my people. That’s messed up, you know?”

During the interview, the podcast producers then showed Siwa Bure’s exact comment, in which Bure shared that her “heart wants to tell stories that have more meaning and purpose and depth behind them. I knew that the people behind Great American Family were Christians and loved the Lord and wanted to promote faith programming and good family energy.”

“That’s what I don’t like,” Siwa said in response. “Why is [some in the] LGBTQIA [community] not allowed to be good, loving Christian? You know what I mean?”

“You can be gay, and you can look up to the Lord. Why not? You know?” she added.
