lgbtq representation on TV

Deadline reports that Monáe will star in “De La Resistance,” a drama that focuses on Baker’s career as a performer and her work as a spy for the Allies in German-occupied France during the Second World War.

“Miranda is feeling stagnant in her life,” writer Julie Rottenberg, who wrote Thursday’s episode, told TVLine. “I think this season is all about change for her.”

Siwa and Johnson, who made history as the first same-sex couple to appear on the American version of the popular dance-off, were one of four couples who made it to Monday night’s finale, where they performed two dances. 

“This dance was a push, and it was HARRRDDD for me,” Siwa said. “We worked, we cried, we bled, we did a bit of it all this week and it was WORTH it. So happy.”

According to its description, the show “explores the world through the eyes of a hilarious and unpredictable seven-year-old Ellen DeGeneres.”

“I am so excited to be a part of this year’s ‘Dancing with the Stars’ season 30, and to be dancing with a girl!,” Siwa, 18, said in a video posted on social media. “I think it’s so cool.” 

It’s finally here!
