JoJo Siwa Will Make History In The 1st Same-Sex Pairing On ‘Dancing With The Stars’

Before stepping on the dance floor, actress and YouTube personality JoJo Siwa is already making history — as the first Dancing with the Stars contestant to be matched with a same-sex partner.

“I am so excited to be a part of ‘Dancing With the Stars,’ Season 30, and to be dancing with a girl,” Siwa said in a tweet. “I think it’s so cool.”

Siwa’s partner will be introduced on the season premiere airing on Sept. 20.

“I think it’s cool. I think it breaks a wall that’s never been done before,” Siwa said during this year’s Television Critics Association virtual summer press tour.
