JoJo Siwa has been a standout star of Celebrity Big Brother this year, and has been sorely missed by fans since she left the UK after the show’s final last week – and she has taken one quintessentially British ritual back home
JoJo Siwa, the Celebrity Big Brother sensation, has thrilled fans by revealing what she misses most about her time in the famous house and how it is now a constant part of her life.
The 21-year-old starlet was a standout on this year’s CBB, bagging third place in the final. Viewers were smitten with her vibrant energy and effervescent personality, especially when she shared screen time with best mate Chris Hughes. Their friendship, which pair confirmed is “platonic” in an interview on This Morning and several other platforms, became a hot topic after JoJo split from her partner Kath Ebbs at the afterparty.
The Karma singer and Dance Moms star jetted back to Los Angeles last week after her stint on the ITV reality show. But she’s already pining for her next trip to the UK and to catch up with fellow housemates. Speaking on The Useless Hotline Podcast, she likened coming home to “returning to Earth” and confessed she cannot stop saying British phrases.
Fans reckon she has undergone a “complete transformation” after admitting that a typically British pastime has become a mainstay in her life since missing it with her housemates. Plus, she’s ditched traditional American snacks and now only craves UK treats.

JoJo, the TikTok sensation with a jaw-dropping 45 million followers, has just dropped a fresh vid today (May 1), and her fans are absolutely buzzing. The dancing queen is seen brewing a cuppa and spills the tea on how her stint in the UK and Big Brother has flipped her tastes upside down.
She confessed: “Since leaving the UK and Big Brother I don’t like anything that I liked prior to being on Big Brother. The food I don’t like, I don’t get around, my drinks that I used to drink while being in American I don’t like.”
She continued, blown away by her newfound love for British brews: “If you would have told me, prior going into the house, that I would come home from a long day of rehearsals and want…a tea…a cup of tea and a couple of tea biscuits, I would think you were crazy. But also one first thing in the morning, that’s crazy.”
Adding more, she said: “Normally my vibe would never…I can’t get into anything else right now. I just miss, I miss my old habits, I miss the tea in England, I miss Jack making my tea, I miss stealing Chris’ tea, I miss it so much.”
The star even teased about kicking off a new TikTok series dubbed Tea Time and Tea. One fan pitched in: “Tea time with JoJo should be a new podcast.” Echoing the sentiment, another chimed in: “You and Chris should do a podcast together,”.
Her newfound obsession with tea has got her followers chuffed to bits. “Get Chris to send you some Yorkshire Tea bags,” suggested one. “Joelle the UK needs you back with us drinking tea,” urged another. While another fan embraced her as an honorary Brit: “Oh JoJo, you’re one of us now, come home”.
Another fan raved: “You had a whole transformation…in all the best ways Joelle!” Someone else shared the same sentiment, saying: “JoJo come home to the UK, we all miss you. Clear this is where you’re meant to be.”
Just days ago, JoJo voiced her heartfelt thanks to fans. As she touched down in the UK, she reflected on her Big Brother stint as “one of my favourite things that I’ve ever done in my life”. With sincerity, she stated: “So very grateful for the love and support I received from you while I was in house.”
JoJo confessed: “Being so vulnerable and not know what the world will do or say was scary, but coming out of the house and seeing the absolute outpour of love and support that happened while I was in there was just wild and made me cry with tears of happiness.”
She got emotional, saying: “It makes me very emotional and just means so much. Thank you”.
