Dance Moms' JoJo Siwa 'sick' as she shares footage of burglars breaking into $3.4m home

Dance Moms and Dancing with the Stars' JoJo Siwa has been hit with another blow as she deals with the fallout from her $3.4million home getting broken into - which follows on from the tragic death of her puppy.

The 19-year-old singer, dancer and actress, has shared security video footage of thieves breaking into her lavish LA home earlier this week.

On Tuesday (May 16), JoJo, who shot to fame in 2015 during the fifth series of Abby Lee's Dance Moms, took to social media to talk about the "terrifying" incident that saw two burglars break into her house and steal a selection of items.

Photos that JoJo shared online showed two men wearing hoodies and face masks while standing on a spiral staircase, with them reported to have fled as soon as the police arrived.

Speaking to her followers on Instagram and Snapchat the day after it took place, JoJo said: "We were robbed last night at 2:40(ish)AM… It was an armed robbery which is very scary."

"It was a REALLLLLY long night on the phone with my security, family, and LAPD," she added.

JoJo also said that there was "lots of materialistic damage" but urged that it "all can be fixed", with the star remaining upbeat amid the ordeal.

Explaining how the footage made her feel "sick", JoJo seemed incredibly grateful that her family and dogs were all safe, with her saying that it was the "most important thing" to her.

It is unclear what was stolen from the property at this time.

At the end of last month JoJo suffered another ordeal when she lost her puppy in a tragic and unpreventable accident, just two months after taking him home.

"Two months ago our puppy Tooie [O2] joined our family and he brought the MOST joy, laughter, and messes into our life.

"My heart hurts so much to say that this morning he was involved in an accident and is now in puppy heaven.

"I cant even explain how perfect of a dog O2 was. Going to miss him more than words can explain," she penned in a touching tribute last month when she addressed the pup's death.

At the time US Sun reported that JoJo posted a TikTok video with more details, which was removed from the star's page shortly after.

In the now deleted post, according to the paper, JoJo said: "There was an accident with him this morning and it’s nothing that anybody could have done anything to prevent, so it’s no one’s fault.

"He hopefully didn’t suffer – I feel like it was pretty quick."
