JoJo Siwa Says She’s in Talks to Represent Poland at Eurovision: ‘I Can’t Wait’

JoJo Siwa is ready for the world’s stage. According to the 21-year-old star, Poland is considering her to represent the country in the next Eurovision Song Contest — and she’s totally down to do it.
The Dance Moms alum shared the news while getting ready to head to the airport in a recent TikTok video, telling followers that she was visiting Poland to connect with her Polish ancestry after one of her songs — “Yesterday’s Tomorrow’s Today” — went viral in the country. Coincidentally, she explained, one of her followers had jokingly commented on a previous video that she should perform at Eurovision – which will be held in Basel next year — on behalf of the country, but now it’s “actually become a real conversation.”
“Eurovision’s into it,” she continued. “We’re talking with the people in Poland. If Poland wants me to represent, I will be there. I will make it happen.”

Siwa also noted that she wouldn’t be able to perform “Yesterday’s Tomorrow’s Today” at the competition, as the rules of Eurovision dictate that each country’s entry must be a previously unreleased song. However, the “Karma” artist is prepared.
“I did come up with an idea [for a new song] that I 100% would do,” she told followers. “I can’t wait — I think it would be so frickin’ fun.”
Billboard has reached out to Eurovision for comment.
Siwa went on to share videos of her exploring Poland, teasing that she had the “best meeting in Poland” and later adding that she’d gotten the “best news.”
According to the BBC, however, executives in charge of Poland’s Eurovision entry said they haven’t been in contact with the Nickelodeon star, while the Polish broadcaster TVP — which helps select the country’s representatives — said it wasn’t currently speaking to any artists and hadn’t made any decisions about 2025.
