Meanwhile, Green, 48, fired: ‘F**k the kids choice awards [laugh face emoji] you are too good for them.’

Jersey Shore’s Snooki said she plans on writing the network ‘a note’ and actress Mollee Gray theorized that Siwa didn’t get an invite because she’s ‘the color of the rainbow and they’re [Nickelodeon] just orange.’ 

Her legions of fans, called Siwanatorz, also took to social media to express their outrage and confusion.

‘The only year that @itsjojowsiwa didn’t get invited to the kids choice awards is when she comes out and cuts her hair?????? Sus @Nickelodeon,’ one Twitter user wrote, which Siwa retweeted.

Another said they were ‘losing’ their mind over ‘Snooki threatening to write a NOTE to Nickelodeon for not inviting Jojo.’

In September, Siwa publicly called out Nickelodeon over the restrictions that she said the company put in place for her D.R.E.A.M. tour, which began in January.  

‘I go out on tour in January. My movie musical was just released (with 6 new original songs)… Nickelodeon told me today that I’m not allowed to perform/add any of the songs from the film into my show,’ JoJo tweeted. 

Siwa went on to say, ‘These are MY songs, MY voice, MY writing. Does this seem fair???’

The Dance Moms alum then replied to her first heated Tweet, writing, ‘There is no reason that this music should not be included.’
