STATEN ISLAND, NEW YORK: Twin brothers Nicky Scarlotta and Jojo Scarlotta are ready to spice things up in 'The Circle' Season 7. Hailing from Staten Island, the 25-year-old construction workers are eager to join forces in hopes of clinching the title and the $100,000 cash prize on the Netflix game show.
Jojo's videos, each with his distinctly New York Italian-American takes, have earned him nearly a half-million followers on both TikTok and Instagram. His latest TikTok videos have gone viral sharing concerns surrounding inflation for everything from haircuts to regular bill payments with plenty of humor.
During his recent interview with Fox News Digital, Jojo shared his stance on inflation and said, "What I did notice under the Biden administration was that gas, the price of housing, almost everything that you could name under the sun has gone up — the car insurance, you know what I mean?"
"And it's very, very hard because I don't know what they expect, you know, the working class, the middle class to do. You know [the] people who have just one income. How do they expect people to survive?" Jojo added.
