JoJo Siwa announces she's 'no longer a lesbian' on Big Brother

JoJo Siwa has opened up about her sexuality on Celebrity Big Brother.

The Dance Moms star is currently in the Big Brother house alongside the likes of Love Island's Chris Hughes and RuPaul’s Drag Race UK season four winner, Danny Beard.

Mickey Rourke had also been in the house, but he was forced to leave after ongoing problematic behavior, despite warnings from the show's producers.

Now, the final is nearing and will take place on Friday, April 25. The finalists include Beard, Siwa, and Hughes, as well as Chesney Hawkes, Donna Preston, and soap opera star Jack P. Shepherd.

While CBB is broadcast on UK TV network ITV, there's also a livestream of the celebs in the house, which documented the moment Siwa discussed her sexuality.

Chatting to Beard, Siwa revealed: "I feel so queer."

Beard then said that they also identify as queer, sparking Siwa to open up to the Drag Race star further.

"I think I've always told myself I'm a lesbian," she said. "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, who identifies as non-binary and uses all pronouns, is currently dating Kath Ebbs. The pair went public with their relationship earlier this year.

As per Stonewall, '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."

While there's an official definition of 'queer', it can mean different things to different people in the LGBTQ+ community.

In 2023, a global study discovered that nine percent of people across 30 countries identified as LGBTQ, NBC News reported at the time.

22,514 participants in 30 countries in the Americas, Europe and Asia found that three percent identified as lesbian or gay, four percent as bisexual, 0.9 percent as pansexual or omnisexual, and 0.9 percent as asexual.

In the US alone, it's estimated that there are 13.9 million adults who identify as LGBTQ+, says the Williams Institute.
