Dancing With The Stars is garnering praise from fans and advocacy groups for partnering JoJo Siwa with Jenna Johnson, the first same-sex pairing in the competition series 30-season history.

But Siwa, who came out as queer in January, isnt the shows only LGBTQ contestant on its current season. Beloved Peloton instructor Cody Rigsby is also wowing audiences with his groovy footwork, and is partnered with dancer Cheryl Burke.

Rigsby, a self-described opinionated homosexual , said in an interview last week that he would have been willing to dance with a male partner on the show. As is often the case in Hollywood, however, the fast-paced, behind-the-scenes negotiations gave him little time to consider the big picture.

When the conversation opportunity came up for Dancing With The Stars, I was just so excited to be on the show, I guess I didnt even think it was a possibility, he explained to GLAADs Anthony Allen Ramos . So I didnt bring it up. Had I maybe had a moment to breathe and recognize an opportunity, I definitely would have asked!
