JoJo Siwa has not jumped back into the dating scene since her split from ex-girlfriend Kylie Prew.
The YouTuber dated Prew for nine months after coming out earlier this year. Their first public appearance came in September when they walked the red carpet for Siwa's film, The J Team, and shared a kiss.
After confirming her split from Prew earlier this month, Siwa now admits that while she's not fully ready to jump into a relationship just yet, she wouldn't mind a "cuddle buddy".
"I haven't started dating at all, anybody, but whatever happens happens," the 18-year-old told People. "I fell in love with somebody who I didn't ever expect to fall in love with."
"We met on a cruise ship, she was my best friend. And then we went to Disney together and all of a sudden ... it kind of all happened. And so I think I learned to just trust life and whatever's supposed to happen is going to happen," she went on.
"But trust me, I want to have a cuddle date. So if anybody out there needs a cuddle date, cuddle buddy, I'll take it."
Siwa spoke about the breakdown of her relationship during her appearance on Paris Hilton's This is Paris podcast on November 2.
"I have yet to talk about this officially, publicly, but we broke up," she told the socialite. "But she is literally still my best friend. I talked to her yesterday, she just got a new puppy. She’s awesome. She’s having the time of her life, I’m having the time of my life."
The Dancing with the Stars contestant told Hilton that she wasn't even aware that she could be friends with an ex until splitting from 17-year-old Prew.
"I'm really lucky that I didn’t lose her completely because, you know, even though relationships end, friendships don’t have to end. I was very happy that it can be, because that’s all I wanted," she said.
"But I’m really happy that I remember all the fun times, all the good times, and nothing bad happened, it just is the definition of a cheesy saying of 'right person, wrong time' and I hate cheesy sayings, but they’re true. We’re both so young, she’s 17, I’m 18, and we are literally best friends.
"And I would take a bullet for her, and I know she would do the same for me. We just — literally, right person, wrong time."
