JoJo Levesque on Growing Up In The Spotlight & Taking Back Control

Описание: This week on Reclaiming, we are joined by the youngest person to ever top the billboard 100, artist JoJo Levesque, who takes us behind the curtain of her remarkable 20-year career in music. In this raw and revealing conversation, she opens up about her complex path to self-discovery, her fight to reclaim her artistic freedom after a devastating label dispute that kept her music hostage, and the personal battles that shaped her into the powerhouse vocalist we know today. From teenage superstar to industry warrior, JoJo shares untold stories of resilience, music industry manipulation, and the emotional toll of growing up in the spotlight.

About the show:
If you’re interested in unexpected conversations that go uncharted places, are remotely self-aware and like to laugh, then please join me as I continue to find my public voice on Reclaiming with Monica Lewinsky. (That’s me.) I will have honest, wide-ranging interviews with all kinds of people – recognizable names, regular folks, experts and friends – about what it means to reclaim what’s been lost or taken in the broadest sense. Every week, I’ll draw from my own unique experiences (like say, surviving a global scandal at 24 years old), and delve into the personal and often messy ways people find their way back to themselves. And because I love a good tangent, we’ll probably also touch on other stuff, too. Listen to Reclaiming with Monica Lewinsky premieres early and ad-free at https://wondery.com/shows/reclaiming-....
