The queer figure skater made lesbians and sapphics swoon over her back muscles in the process

It’s truly been a great year for queer fans of televised dance competitions. Here in UK, we’ve fallen in love with Bethany Antonia and professional dancer Nancy Xu’s same-sex partnership on Strictly Come Dancing – which is also the competition’s first in three years. Over in the US, this season of Dancing With The Stars (DWTS) welcomed its third same-sex pairing with bisexual model Sarah Jane Nadar and pro dancer Hailey Bills. The duo were the first to be eliminated from DWTS, but thankfully, queer figure skater Amber Glenn is still making sapphics swoon on the dancefloor.
For the show’s Disney Night, Amber performed a quickstep to A Star Is Born from Hercules. She and pro dancer Pasha Pashkov made DWTS history with the iconic dance. Their routine marked the first time a woman has taken over the lead role from her male pro partner. As lead, Amber was a force on the stage.
The figure skater’s outfit revealed her (very ripped) back muscles, and she flexed them with pride throughout the night – much to the excitement of sapphic viewers. On social media platform X, Fan account Amber Glenn Updates shared a video of Amber flexing her back to the camera. The comments were full of people getting giddy over the star.
Suffice to say, we’re excited to see what Amber brings to the dancefloor for Grammy Night, which airs on 10 November.
