“I did not steal anything,” the Dance Moms alum told TMZ on Friday (April 12). “There’s no such thing as stealing.”

JoJo then explained how she acquired the rights to the song, which was created by the producing team Rock Mafia.

“I was pitched it. I loved it, was obsessed with it, so I grasped onto it. That’s a very normal thing,” she said. “I knew that it was a special song. I knew that it fit. I knew that it was exactly the vision that I wanted to create for the world.”

JoJo continued, “What happens is people write songs, and then, they don’t do anything with them. Then, a few years later, it makes sense for another artist.”
