From Kid Albums to Coming Out

     Jojo Siwa came out as pansexual a few sparing days ago during a cover story with People magazine. Siwa, child star, along with other celebrities often encourage the idea of embracing one’s true self. Being truthful about sexual orientation is included within the realm of self honesty. Siwa has done just that, at seventeen, a few days ago. Specifically, she did with People magazine and truly came clean.

     Jojo Siwa is widely known for her entertainment to children. In contrast, her coming out is quite an adult-oriented decision. It seems she finally decided to stop catering to younger children and focus on her own honesty. According to CNN.com, Siwa sat down with People Magazine for a cover story and discussed her girlfriend, Kylie Prew. Siwa also explained her lack of exact definition to her sexuality. GoodMorningAmerica.com quotes Siwa stating, “Technically I would say that I am pansexual, because that’s how I have always been my whole life is just like, my human is my human.” 

     While Siwa has gotten her fair share of hate from her new openness, she has also gained many supporters, according to her excitement within her interview. She has grown up and become an influence to young toddlers and even older millennials. She continues to fill the hearts of many little kids, and she is on her way to filling the hearts of the loving LGBTQ+ family.
