“I’m transitioning,” she shared while Dua Lipa’s “Levitating” played.

Adding, “That means I’m transgender if you didn’t know. My pronouns are they/she, which means that they or she are totally fine, and I’m just hopping on here to tell you that I’m going to be posting more on Tiktok and I’m excited about it!”

Torres came out as non-binary to their student paper The Daily Trojan last year, explaining how the “expectations” from their dance teachers to “dance like a man” had “really got to [them].”

“Everyone always talks about how inclusive the arts communities are. But I’m just not really feeling it. I’m not seeing it on an everyday scale,” Torres said.
