Siwa, 17, opened up in an Instagram livestream over the weekend about being âjust so happyâ after she received an outpouring of support for two posts she made earlier last week. âSomeone asked, âHow long have you been a part of the community? How long have you been whatever you are?â I donât know,â Siwa said. âI think my whole life, because my whole life I have really really been just - I like people. But I never had fallen in love before, but I always believed my person was going to be my person. If that person happened to be a boy, then great. If that person happened to be a girl, great.â
