After some speculation, JoJo Siwa came out to her fans. She previously talked about having a girlfriend, and now the Dance Moms alum revealed her on Instagram and how their relationship started.

JoJo Siwa came out to the world

The 17-year-old influencer came out to her fans by posting a TikTok of herself singing to lipsyncing to Lady Gaga’s “Born This Way”. She posted a picture of herself wearing a shirt, which reads “Best. Gay. Cousin. Ever.” on Twitter. She captioned it with, “My cousin got me a new shirt.”

Siwa hasn’t labeled herself as any specific sexual identity. She revealed to a fan why that’s the case.

“I have thought about this and the reason why I am not ready to say this answer is because I don’t really know this answer,” Siwa replied. “I think humans are awesome. I think humans are really incredible people.”

She went on to talk about how she feels since coming out. “Right now, I’m super duper happy,” she continued. “I want to share everything with the world, I really do, but I also want to keep things in my life private until they’re ready to be public.”

She talked about having a girlfriend

The former Dance Moms star went on to have an interview with Jimmy Fallon. She talked about the reactions to her announcement.

Siwa revealed she is in a relationship saying, “It is true. I do have the most amazing, wonderful, perfect most beautiful girlfriend in the whole world. It’s not something I’m ashamed of. I just haven’t shown the internet yet.”
