The 'So You Think You Can Dance' judge's mom Jessalyn Siwa appears to diss the 'Fuller House' actress in an Instagram Story after her teen daughter called the actress the 'rudest celebrity.'

AceShowbiz - The feud between JoJo Siwa and Candace Cameron Bure apparently has yet to end. Now, the professional dancer's mom has entered the drama as she dissed the "Fuller House" actress in an Instagram Story.
On Monday, August 1, Jessalyn Siwa took to her page to weigh in on the drama involving her 19-year-old daughter. "At the end of the day … it's about how you treat people," the 47-year-old wrote. "Real, genuine kindness always goes a long way."
She went on to note, "It's super easy to quote a Bible verse when everyone is looking at you but morals are what you have when no one is looking." Jessalyn seemingly referenced to Cameron posting a Bible verse in response to JoJo's "rudest celebrity" diss last month. "Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord God is an everlasting rock," so the quote read.
The whole thing started after JoJo called out Cameron for being "rudest celebrity" she's ever met in a TikTok video. Later, Cameron addressed the matter in an Instagram video in which she detailed her phone conversation with the "So You Think You Can Dance" judge. "She didn't want to tell me [how I was rude to her]. She said, 'You know, I met you at the 'Fuller House' premiere and I was 11 years old,' " the actress said. Apparently, the now-19-year-old YouTuber asked Candace for a picture, but the latter said, "Not right now."
Even though JoJo allegedly told Candace that she understands the situation as an adult, the actress felt bad for what happened years ago. So, Candace apologized to Jojo as she told her, "I broke your 11-year-old heart. Ugh. I feel crummy. JoJo, I'm so sorry." She also stressed, "No matter how many followers you have … even a 10-second trending TikTok video can do damage because our words matter and our actions matter."
However, JoJo claimed in a separate interview that Candace "didn't share all the details of the meeting" that they discussed during their phone conversation. The YouTube star elaborated, "It was at the afterparty that she didn't wanna take a picture with me, and I was OK with that. But then I turned around, and when I looked back, she was taking pictures with other kids."
She admitted that it made her "really, really upset," calling it "one of those memories" that's just always "stuck with" her. "When you're little and somebody says something to you, and you just never forget it as long as you live - I think we've all had that moment - and I feel like this was that moment for me," she said.
Meanwhile, JoJo's mom isn't the only family member that involved themselves in the Jojo-Cameron feud. Cameron's daughter Natasha Bure previously defended her mom as she indirectly told JoJo to grow up. She wrote in a now-deleted Instagram Story, "Respectfully, someone saying no to taking a photo with you is not a 'rough experience,' " responding to JoJo recalling her "rough experience" meeting her mom. "This generation is so sensitive and has zero backbone. Grow up. There are bigger issues in the world than this."
