JoJo Siwa was booed over her choice of outfit during one of her performances in London this week.
JoJo, 22, made a sweet gesture to Chris Hughes, 32, after his favourite football team were promoted to the Premier League.
"One of the happiest days of our lives. In the happiest stage in my life," Chris said at the time.
Explaining to the crowd, 'this is for somebody special who's here tonight', JoJo could be seen wearing a tribute for Chris during her performance in Hoxton.

Tongues have been wagging about JoJo and Chris ever since they appeared together on Celebrity Big Brother.
The former Dance Moms star and ex-Love Island contestant became close pals on CBB, however their quick bond became one of the biggest talking points of the entire series.
Now they're out of the house, the pair have been spending a fair amount of time together, spotted in Mexico and Orlando before JoJo travelled over to the UK for a string of shows.
Chris could be seen greeting JoJo at Heathrow Airport with a bunch of roses as they reunited.
With the pair spending time together in the UK, JoJo made a cute gesture to Chris by stepping out on stage in a sparkly Sunderland shirt, but it seems there were some other football fans in the audience after she was booed over the choice.
"You might not like it, but he does so just go with it," she said.
In a clip of the video online, people were quick to comment, with many emphasising that the light-hearted booing was from other football fans in the audience.
"Let’s just get one thing clear, the crowd WERE NOT booing JoJo," one wrote.
"It was other footie fans booing the Sunderland shirt. This video does not show full context. I was literally stood in that very crowd. Haters always wanting to pull people down. Absolutely great night!! Full of fun and great entertainment!! If it’s not for you, just scroll on pass. No need for hate!! Much love!!"
Another added: "I think we're booing the terrible choice of football team tbh."
During the gig, JoJo said she felt at home in the UK, telling the audience: "I want to say a massive thank you, not only for coming tonight, but for welcoming me into this country with open arms.
"I've been feeling a little weird today and I haven't spoken to anybody about it. I'm going to speak to you. I haven't felt completely like JoJo today. It's a good thing, something about being here, I feel a bit like Joelle.
"I feel happy as Joelle, normally I perform and I'm happy as JoJo but Joelle is going through something. But I feel happy."
