Los Angeles Gay Pride 2007
Well it looks like a good time was had by all at the 2007 Los Angeles Gay Pride Celebration in West Hollywood. Dozens of celebrities were on hand to participate in one of the largest Pride celebrations in the country. John Amaechi was the Grand Marshal for this year's parade and Doug Spearman(Noah's Arc) as well as celebrity attorney Gloria Allred were on hand to celebrate with the LGBT community.
Out of the four years I lived in L.A. I never attended a single pride event, with the exception of Long Beach Pride, which doesn't really count because it's outside of L.A. . So now that I have flight benefits I will be living it up with the kids at Black Gay Pride in Malibu next month. Watch out L.A. I'm coming home!
A special thanks to my good friend Jeff for the photos.
