Cody Rigsby at The Wiltern

Soon, on the first day of October, The Wiltern will welcome dancer-turned-author Cody Rigsby to promote his first book, "XOXO, Cody!" The American public came to know him as one of Peloton Interactive's most inspiring instructors these past years, but now, he aims to put that inspiration to the page with one of the hottest autobiographies of the season!

Official details about the LA event have yet to be announced. However, previous tour dates covering his book launch included a free copy of the book, a riveting Q&A session, and a meet & greet. We'll keep you updated on the latest info!

"Cody is one of my favorite human beings of all time. Not only is he HILARIOUS. He's also a bad bitch in the best way. I felt like I was sitting next to him, dishing over a glass of wine. He is honest and shares even the things that may be unflattering - he doesn't sugarcoat anything."

"XOXO, Cody: An Opinionated Homosexual's Guide to Self-Love, Relationships, and Tactful Pettiness" will tackle the titular entertainer's life story in unabashed detail, from humble beginnings in North Carolina to the heights of NYC stardom. Growing up as a poor, gay Southerner wasn't easy, and losing his father and best friend to addiction made life all the more bleaker. But through all the hardships, Cody comes out standing loud and proud with an outlook he wants to share with you: don't let the fear of being judged hold you back!

Our speaker is a former backup dancer for some of music's biggest names, including Katy Perry, Pitbull, and Nicki Minaj. Just a couple of years ago, he also won third place in the 30th season of ABC's "Dancing with the Stars" along with professional dancer Cheryl Burke.

"I think a lot of a gay person's life, we are battling these feelings and emotions that feel really right in our own self, but we have all these external influences telling us that we're wrong and that we're bad. I think that what we gain is a sense of not carrying a burden of other people's expectations or opinions about ourselves," Cody said in an earlier interview.

Start the week (and month) with a bang, bang, bang, and meet your favorite fitness instructor LIVE on a Sunday evening this October 1! The Wiltern in Los Angeles, California, will play host, offering a handsome stage and excellent audio-visual utilities for the career milestone event. Don't be a stranger, boo, and get your tickets today!
