JoJo Siwa Reveals Concussion And 'Gnarly' Eye Infection After Getting 'Thrown Off' Golf Cart
“Things aren’t going too well. If you don’t want to see a scary-looking eye, look away for three seconds. This is what I’m working with.”
According to the former Dance Moms star, the steering wheel locked and the accelerator became stuck while she was driving, causing the golf cart to spin at speeds of up to 25 mph. The vehicle eventually tipped onto two wheels before throwing her out.
While attempting to make a left turn, the cart spun out of control, sending Siwa to the ground. She said she landed on her lower back and hit her head, though an instinctive reaction may have spared her from more serious injuries.
After removing her eye patch, Siwa revealed a red, swollen eye that she said was already showing signs of improvement.
She's dealing with both injuries at once:
“This is the best it’s been; hopefully, it’ll be on the mend in the next few days. And on top of this, I also have a concussion. I’m a mess.”
The entertainer explained that the eye infection appeared several days after the accident. While doctors do not believe it's connected to the crash, the issue has complicated an already difficult recovery.
Siwa said she has been on bed rest while recovering from the concussion and continues to monitor her symptoms. Despite the setback, she told followers that she's making steady progress.
The performer offered an update on how she's healing:
“It’s been a very long week. With rest, my concussion has been recovering well. Nowhere near 100 percent, but on a good track. My eye, however, is taking longer than expected to come around.”
The timing is less than ideal, as the injuries have also disrupted preparations for her upcoming JoJo Siwa Cruise.
The exclusive three-night fan experience, hosted by the performer and reality TV star, is set to sail aboard Royal Caribbean's Utopia of the Seas from Port Canaveral, Florida, from June 12–15. Packages started at approximately $1,107 per person for interior cabins, with premium suites selling out quickly, making the event one of Siwa's biggest commitments on the horizon.
Even so, Siwa said she has started easing back into work with the support of what she described as a "lovely team of doctors," while acknowledging that returning too quickly carries risks.
Siwa explained why she's already returning to some commitments:
“It’s definitely a bit early to be going back into everything, and I have to be very careful of not being 100 percent recovered. But the greatest saying in Hollywood, which I’m realizing to be true, the show must go on.”
She also joked that if fans spot her wearing sunglasses, it's not because she's being a "drama diva"—it's simply part of the recovery process.

Reflecting on the crash, Siwa acknowledged how much worse the outcome could have been:
“The good news about the accident is I’m really lucky how I ended up. I could have been seriously, seriously injured. As unlucky as I am that it happened, I’m very lucky with how I came out of it."
Fans quickly filled the comments with well-wishes, praising her optimism and wishing her a speedy recovery.

The health scare comes just months after another medical setback. In December, Siwa revealed that she had been hospitalized after a ruptured ovarian cyst required emergency treatment.

Although the recovery process hasn't been easy, Siwa seems determined to keep moving forward. With her concussion improving and doctors continuing to monitor her eye infection, she said she's thankful the accident ended with far less severe injuries than it could have.
'Heartbroken' Céline Dion Shares Sweet Tribute To 'Beauty And The Beast' Duet Partner Peabo Bryson After His Death At 75
Bryson's family shared:
"We are tremendously moved by the outpouring of love, prayers and support from fans, friends, and colleagues around the world."
"While our hearts are broken, we find comfort in knowing how deeply Peabo was loved and how many lives were touched by his voice and his generous spirit. His legacy and music will live on for generations to come."
While his many hits were standards for his genre, Bryson garnered universal appeal through collaborations with Disney Studios, singing duets for the main themes for two of their animated films: "Beauty and the Beast" with a then 22-year-old relative newcomer, Céline Dion, for the 1991 film of the same name, and "A Whole New World" with Regina Belle for 1992's Aladdin.
After news of his passing, Canadian songstress Dion paid tribute to her duet partner.
Sharing a photo of them together at the 1993 American Music Awards, Dion wrote:
"I’m heartbroken to hear that we lost Peabo Bryson today. His incredible voice and his kind spirit embodied the beauty of song and performance. He was so wonderful and generous to me all those years ago, when we recorded 'Beauty and the Beast.'"
"He made me so comfortable, as I was just learning to sing in English. He will remain for me always as a real symbol of the joy that music has brought to my life. His voice and his talent will be missed…"
"My heart is with your family, and may you rest in peace, Peabo."
Tributes to Bryson poured in from across social media.

The ballad that tells the love story of Beauty and the Beast was first recorded by British-American actress Angela Lansbury in her role as the voice of the character Mrs. Potts. That version is featured in the film's ballroom scene.
"Beauty and the Beast" garnered both a Golden Globe and Academy Award for Best Original Song for lyricist Howard Ashman and composer Alan Menken as well as a Grammy Award for Best Song Written for Visual Media.
Bryson and Dion also won a Grammy for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals. It was the first Grammy for both artists. Their version of the song also reached No. 9 on the US Billboard Hot 100.
