The KISS frontman, 74, praised the\u00a0<em>Dance Moms\u00a0<\/em>alum, 20, for being \u201cextraordinary.\u201d He also called out any critics of her look for being envious of her success.<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-3\">The rock icon praised her and offered some sound advice that everyone should follow in an interview with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tmz.com\/2024\/04\/03\/gene-simmons-defends-jojo-siwa-bad-girl-look-iheartradio-music-awards\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-analytics-trigger=\"article-body-link\">TMZ<\/a> on Wednesday, April 3. \u201cJojo is cool. Anybody who doesn\u2019t get it is just jealous. Period. Never be ordinary. Always be extraordinary,\u201d he said. \u201cJojo is extraordinary and she looks cool.\u201d<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-4\">At the end of his brief statement, Gene said that he also noticed the comparisons, but he seemed flattered that a young up-and-coming star would mirror her style off of his on-stage looks. \u201cOf course, she looks like me, but that\u2019s another story,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5266362\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5266362\" style=\"width: 620px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-5266362\" src=\"https:\/\/hollywoodlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Gene-Simmons-Praises-JoJo-Siwa-embed.jpg?quality=100&amp;w=620\" alt=\"\" width=\"620\" height=\"401\"\/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5266362\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Gene\u2019s iconic \u201cDemon\u201d makeup during a concert.

She had some dark eye makeup on in a pattern that resembled the ones that KISS\u2019 members wore on-stage, even though it wasn\u2019t a perfect replication of Gene\u2019s \u201cDemon\u201d makeup (or even <strong>Ace Frehely\u2019s <\/strong>\u201cSpaceman\u201d look, which is similar). She also rocked a sparkling black-and-silver outfit that had similarities to the \u201cGod of Thunder\u201d rocker\u2019s stage looks, with spiked designs, resembling a bat and more.<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-6\">While Gene was very supportive of Jojo\u2019s look, a few viewers online weren\u2019t as supportive. \u201cNow why is Jojo Siwa going around dressed like KISS?
