This out and proud ballet star is breaking barriers, both on stage and in the social media world.
— When Houston Ballet star Harper Watters first received a pair of pink six-inch stilettos from a friend in his company, it was meant to be a funny gift. „We were in the gym, and so we were just like, could you imagine if we just ran on the treadmill with these? How funny would that be?“ Harper said. He and a friend strapped them on and recorded a 52-second video, performing ballet routines on the treadmill. The hysterical videos quickly went viral on Instagram, racking up over one million views. For Harper, it was a moment of realization.“I consciously continued to create content that was authentic to me and would reach other people“, he said.
