Jojo Siwa Threatens To Release “Bette Davis Eyes” Cover

Because the gays just weren’t suffering enough.

JoJo Siwa has dusted off her platinum wig, slapped on a triple strand of pearls, and announced (sorry — threatened) that she’s releasing a cover of Bette Davis Eyes.

I give her credit for most likely spending hours either screaming or chain smoking before she went into the studio to try and capture Kim Carnes vocal nodules voice.

I hated the original. I would never imagine someone could make it worse. JoJo did that.

She's not a lesbian anymore, OP.

Is this it at the link? I've never heard of Siwa but this would be a huge hit. She sounds really good and the music has been well updated to retain the original charm but in a modern sound.

But is she trying to emulate Carnes' rough voice or is that how she (Siwa) usually sings? I think she has a very good voice.

Her cookie-smelling BF wants to release "Cary Grant Butthole" instead.

OP, your thread title has me in STITCHES, and I don't even know who that ugly bitch is.

I take it she's not a singer, but an Internet personality?

I didn't realize it sang.

I loathe this song.

She’ll unease you.

I was sceptical because I love the original so much, but I agree with r8, what I heard in that clip sounds amazing. The best part is she's retained some of Carnes' vocal rasp as an homage. Release it, Jojo!

I found out recently that Kim Carnes' version wasn't the "original" original! That blew my little Gen X mind.

R8/R15 - I was expecting to hate it, but I loved that clip!

This is the Jackie DeShannon original from 1974.

Jojo can't beat Gwyneth Paltrow's cover.

Isn’t she a children’s entertainer? The only good cover of this song was done by Brandon Flowers

Brandon Flowers version is worse than the Jackie DeShannon original.

by Anonymousreply 23July 10, 2025 2:30 PM

It’s not terrible. Surprisingly faithful to the Kim Carnes version.

Jojo Siwa doesn’t serve any purpose.

Does she work at Disneyland?

R20 She deserves to be viciously slapped for that.

by Anonymousreply 27July 10, 2025 3:44 PM

She’s much more Amy Schumer than she is Kim Carnes. Kim was always wonderfully slender with good facial features.

How did this repulsive woman ever get famous? She's annoying in every single way. Annoying to listen to and look at. And the whole lesbian/oops, now I"m straight nonsense is beyond annoying

by Anonymousreply 29July 11, 2025 5:58 AM

Why is she covering this song? Silly bitch

If we stop paying attention to it, it will wither and die and the spell will be broken!

Why won’t she just go away?
