LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: JoJo Siwa's extravagant $3.4 million residence in the San Fernando Valley was targeted by masked burglars in the early hours of Monday, May 15. Upon receiving an alert from the alarm company, law enforcement was dispatched to Siwa's home. Upon arrival, they found an open door, presumably used by the burglars to gain access, but the intruders had already fled the scene, TMZ reports.
Siwa, 19, took to Snapchat and wrote, "This makes me sick to watch," stating that it was sickening to watch the "terrifying" security footage of the suspects who are still on the run. Siwa referred to the incident as an "armed robbery," although the Los Angeles Police Department did not confirm whether that was the exact nature of the crime.

'We were robbed last night'
Siwa took to her Snapchat the day after the burglary to update her over a million subscribers about the situation concerning her home, expressing her disappointment with a sad face emoji. Siwa, who gained prominence as a child on 'Dance Moms,' expressed gratitude that her family and pets were safe, reassuring her fans that their well-being was the most important thing to her. As of now, she is still in the process of documenting all the missing items for the authorities investigating the burglary.
She wrote, "We were robbed last night at 2.40(ish)AM... It was an armed robbery which is very scary ... But the good news ... No one was hurt, all our puppies are good, there is lots of materialistic damage, but that can all be fixed." The 'DWTS' alumna recalled, "a REALLLLLY long night on the phone with my security, family and LAPD." She added, "And then I couldn't fall back asleep after. Was about 2 hours on the phone, then lots more just laying there thinking."
JoJo Siwa's luxurious LA mansion
In December 2019, Siwa purchased the expansive mansion located in the Tarzana neighborhood of Los Angeles, and she and her family moved into the property. The following month, at the age of 17, the YouTube star shared a house tour video where she showcased the luxurious features of her home, including an in-home 7-Eleven, a basketball court, and a merch store, providing her fans with a glimpse into her top-notch amenities.
Within her 6,000 square feet of living space, Siwa's home features a "fun room" that boasts convenience store machines like a slushie dispenser and a pizza warmer, adding to the playful atmosphere. In late 2021, she made an appearance on MTV Cribs, showcasing her vibrant and psychedelic bedroom, which was lavishly decorated with approximately 4,000 pounds of candy, creating a whimsical and colorful environment.
