“I still don’t know what I am. It’s like, I want to figure it out. And I have this joke. Her name is Kylie. And so I say that I’m ‘Ky-sexual,’ " she joked. “But like, I don’t know, bisexual, pansexual, queer, lesbian, gay, straight. I always just say gay because it just kind of covers it or queer because I think the keyword is cool.”
“I like queer,” added Siwa. “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 chatting withEWfor their latest digital cover, Siwa also opened up about how she ispushing to have a kissing scenetaken out of the final cut of her upcoming movie.
“I’m madly in love and I do not want to kiss another human. Especially because it’s a man,” Siwa toldthe publication, adding that her fans likely won’t separate her persona from her character Franny on-screen: “That’s what they look at me as, not some character, not some fictional thing. And so it’s going to be a little weird.”
“I’m not about it,” she added of the kissing scene. “I’m trying to get it pulled so bad. It’ll happen. It’ll get pulled.”
A spokesperson for Westbrook Studios did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.
