Nor much of anyone else. To make the head cheerleader's squad, you had to be blond, blue eyed, and bubbly. At least back in the day you did. We had one token black girl on our head cheerleaing team, but she never was voted prom queen. The vote at our school took place before the dance because the queen had to be the one riding in her very own float just like in the song above except that our homecoming queens were not issued guns back then.

The ability to goosestep was a plus.

169 votes cast with a studend population of 2100. Kind of reflects the country, doesn't it. An active minority running the whole show because of the apathy of the majority. Remember this next fall when the elections come around.

My friend went to an art school (20+ years ago) who opened up the homecoming queen nominations to anyone. The fat black gay guy won. They cancelled all the homecoming queen appearances that year and changed the rules back.

So, they had a real homecumming queen and it pissed people off?

Today, the Lesbian homecoming king story rates a "so what?"

I kind of recall a story from about 10 or 15 years ago or more where the first really big stir occurred over a lesbian being voted prom queen, wearing a tux, and taking another girl to the prom.

No one's mentioned the Monkees - Day Dream Believer was one of their hits - sung by David Jones, I think.

That's what I meant - the lyrics are there but not the performers - just being the regular nit-picking Brit - can't step out of accepted character, sorry... plus BS postscript was a bit too obscure for me - guess he was referring to monkeys at the end...
