Credit: Glitter Guts Jojo Baby, an influential artist and one of Chicago’s original club kids, has died at 51 years old. Jojo Baby had recently started chemotherapy to treat their third cancer diagnosis, which was found in their liver, lungs and stomach, they told Block Club in November.
They became a legend and inspired decades of people who admired their artistry, kindness and strong sense of community. Jojo Baby was long a fixture in Chicago’s nightlife scene, performing at Debonair Social club in Wicker Park and hosting Queen!, Smartbar’s weekly Sunday night LGBTQ party in Lakeview. Until we see you on the next dance floor.
His kindness, warmth, and generosity will be sorely missed. It is with a heavy heart we say goodbye to JoJo Baby who was so near and dear to us all and to many in the drag community.
