JOJO Siwa has gone on an expletive-fueled rampage on stage during a New York City Pride event, giving a critic the middle finger.
The former Dance Moms star was filmed stopping her performance to curse at someone in the audience after they booed her.
A concertgoer uploaded a video from the wild moment, capturing Jojo, 21, holding a microphone while trying to track down the source of the booing.
“Who the living f**k just booed me?” she questioned, shouting into the mic as she patrolled the stage.
She wore hot pants with cutouts up the sides and a tiny sparkly bra top with teddy bears over her chest.
The audience erupted into a mix of cheers and gasps as she again asked, “Where the f**k did that just come from?”
She walked to the far end of the stage, pointing to a section of the audience.
“Which one of you?” she shouted.
There was inaudible chatter from the audience and her backup dancers began pointing.
Eventually, Jojo leaned toward where she had been pointing and grabbed a sign.
It’s not clear from whom the sign came, nor was it clear what the sign said.
She held it in front of her as she said, “Respectfully, f**k you.”
Jojo gave the middle finger to the person who booed her.
The audience cheered and laughed as her backup dancers joined in, flashing their middle fingers toward the section from which the boos came.
The singer looked stunned for a moment before setting the sign down and grabbing a bouquet of roses.
