YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThis plus-size choreographer doesn't care which gender pronoun you use. "I don't have any plans on transitioning. To me, it's too many labels. Labels are for shopping," Jenzi Russell told The Post. The dance guru went from teaching popular classes in Phoenix, Arizona, to starring in music videos for Macy Gray and working with Lizzo. Despite viral success, the industry's size standards are still an obstacle. "I recently submitted to an agency [in Los Angeles]," Russell revealed. "The agency responded that my weight would be a liability for them." Find out how they went from "gay boy" to trans superstar in this episode of "Extraordinary People."
