This weekend, the 35th annual Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards were held at The Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California. But one member of the Nickelodeon family was notably missing from Saturday's show, JoJo Siwa.


Siwa took to Instagram Saturday to explain her absence after fans questioned why she wasn't in attendance, despite being nominated for a KCA this year in the Favorite Social Music Star category.

"A lot of you have been asking me why I'm not at the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards tonight, and the answer is very simple, I wasn't invited," Siwa revealed in the 14-second clip. "I'm not sure why, but I just didn't get an invite."

Her post about not getting invited to the 2022 KCAs came about shortly after the star said goodbye to her signature long hair earlier in the week.

Later, the pop star said on her Instagram Story that someone tagged her in a clip in which her song "One Chance" could be heard playing at the awards show.

"So my song made it, but I didn't," she said with a seemingly sarcastic laugh.

Siwa previously called out Nickelodeon in September 2021, claiming that the network had blocked her from performing any of the music she recorded for The J Team movie on tour. Released via Paramount+, the film featured six original songs co-written by Siwa.

Siwa was nominated for favorite social music star at the 2022 KCAs, but lost to Dixie D'Amelio. Miranda Cosgrove and Rob Gronkowski hosted the event.
