About

"Guilty Pleasure" is a song by pop artist JoJo Siwa and the title track off her 2024 EP. The song was released in mid-July 2024 to mixed reviews, with many noting it as an improvement over her previous and much-criticized track "Karma." The song inspired several memes and trends on social media, including memes about the dance choreography that accompanies the song and the "making slime with JoJo Siwa" trend in which users edit videos of Siwa doing the dance to make it look like she is making slime or baking a dessert. She also became the subject of rumors that a tampon fell out of Siwa during the music video for the song.

Origin

On July 12th, 2024, JoJo Siwa released her EP Guilty Pleasure, which features the song of the same name, "Guilty Pleasure." Prior to the song's release, Siwa promoted the song on her TikTok account, @itsjojosiwa, in several videos in which she showcased a new dance choreo for the track (examples shown below).
