Johnny Vera was named prom queen at Roosevelt High School in Fresno, California this past weekend.
At the candidates' speeches Friday in the quad during lunch, Vera, told his classmates, "For me, it's about more than a crown. It's about saying to people, 'Come out and be who you want to be,' You have to say, 'I am who I am, and I'm proud of who I am. My spirit will never be down on the floor.' "
It gets better!
According to The Fresno Bee, "The students cheered and whistled. The girls on Vera's cheerleading squad got teary-eyed. A boy wearing a pin supporting another queen candidate started the chant: 'Johnny! Johnny! Johnny!'"
Congratulations Johnny, you are one fabulous and inspiring queen!
