The Billboard video staff is reacting to Miley Cyrus’ joke about JoJo Siwa’s sexuality seemingly changing with her new relationship with her fellow Big Brother contestant, Chris Hughes and the conversation on social media that goes on regarding sexuality and celebrities especially during Pride month.

All right, so guys, I don’t know if you saw it. At World Pride, Miley Cyrus posted a little video in which she said, “I’m gonna go back into the closet where maybe I can find JoJo Siwa.”
Well, as we all know, JoJo Siwa is now publicly dating a man, Chris, and so people are saying like, Hey, did she go back in the closet? Was she fake gay? There’s a whole thing.
Judy Sanchez
I’m kind of shocked that Miley would say that.
Stefanie Tanaka
I mean, I think people have been kind of accusing a lot of stars of doing that. They were talking about Fletcher also, like, dating a man after she said that she was a lesbian or something.
Tetris Kelly
I mean, we all know that sexuality is on the spectrum for pretty much everybody, so you should be able to kind of do what you want to do. I don’t think it changes anything for JoJo. But what is interesting to me is that JoJo has always, in multiple interviews, multiple times, gave a lot of credit to Miley Cyrus. So what’s to be said when somebody that you look up to is commenting on your personal life? Because now JoJo is speaking out about it.
Jerah Milligan
Wait. So my question is, is Miley gay?
Stefanie Tanaka
She said she’s pansexual, which means that her sexuality is fluid. So, I mean, that’s not necessarily saying that she doesn’t, she can’t date a man, right? You know, just she said before that she doesn’t really care about, like, you know gender.
Judy Sanchez
She’s so hung up on the label. Yeah, she herself. Well, I think Miley’s brand is so, like, free and, fluid.
Stefanie Tanaka
Well, I feel like people are more hung up on labels, like, if you say that you’re gay, they’re like, you have to be gay. Well, she’s like, I don’t know if it works that way.
Jerah Milligan
She can’t be bi? I guess my thing is like, look, I guess I’m confused on what’s wrong. And like, she dates women, now she’s dating a dude. She could date a woman after this dude.
