The Pride of Hollywood

The Grand Marshall for Long Beach Pride? San Francisco Mayor, gay marriage advocate, and state gubernatorial candidate Gavin Newsome. The Grand Marshall for San Francisco Pride? First Lieutenant Dan Choi, bringing attention to the continued enforcement of Don’t Ask Don’t Tell despite the administration’s promises. The Grand Marshall for DC Pride? Cleve Jones, gay right activist going back to the days where he interned for Harvey Milk (he is a major character in the recent film). The Grand Marshall for NYC Pride? Rupert Starr, former POW and decorated WW2 war hero.

The Grand Marshall of our own Hollywood Pride parade, in these everything's-changed-post-Prop-8 days?

Chelsea Handler, comedienne and author of "Is That You, Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea."
