JoJo Siwa’s girl group XOMG POP! has dwindled down from seven members to three. This week, the group’s Instagram page announced auditions for new members. Meanwhile, the remaining members have continued to perform.
XOMG POP! Has Lost Four Members So Far
XOMG POP! was created in 2021 on the reality show Siwa’s Dance Pop Revolution. It started as a group of seven girls between the ages of 10 and 14. They joined Siwa on tour and later competed on America’s Got Talent Season 17.
Since then, four members have left the group. The first was Kiya Barczyszyn, who left the group in 2022. Then earlier this year, Leigha Sanderson left. It was later revealed that Leigha had been hospitalized, with stress having affected her health.
Two more members (Kinley Cunningham and Bella Cianni Llerana) now appear to have left the group. In August, XOMG POP! posted a photo of the three remaining members (Tinie T, Dallas Skye, and Brooklynn Pitts) on Instagram, writing, “3 is our new favorite number.”

The Group Is Holding Auditions for New Members
Despite saying three was their favorite number, the group is apparently looking for new members to replace the girls who left. On Thursday, the group’s Instagram announced that they’re currently accepting auditions.
“ARE YOU THE NEXT XOMG POP! STAR?” reads the image. In the caption, the group asks, “Can you sing and dance like a POP STAR? Now is your chance to be a part of XOMG POP!”
Hopefuls can submit their auditions through an online form linked in the group’s Instagram bio. They’ll need to share samples of both singing and dancing. Some applicants will receive an email inviting them to an in-person audition.
What do you think about the current state of the group? Should they keep it to just three members? Let us know in the comments below.
