JoJo Siwa has opened up about her sexuality while filming Celebrity BIg Brother.
The Dance Moms star is currently in the Big Brother house with Danny Beard, Chris Hughes and more celebs.

During a livestream of all the celebs in the house, Siwa opened up to Beard: “I feel so queer.” adding “I think I’ve always told myself I’m a lesbian,”, “I think you…I think being here, I’ve realised I am not a lesbian, I’m queer. And I think that’s really cool—I’m switching letters! I’ve dropped the L and I’ve gone to the Q, baby! That’s what I love about sexuality.”
Siwa is currently in a relationship with Kath Ebbs.
According to Stonewall, the term ‘queer’ is: “A term used by those wanting to reject specific labels of sexual orientation and/or gender identity. It can also be a way of rejecting the perceived norms of the LGBTQ+ community (such as racism, sizeism, and ableism).”
It adds: “The term was historically used as a slur, and is still viewed as such by some LGBT people. However, others have reclaimed and now embrace the term.”
