I have a local friend from MS, and she posted that article and noted that she was "Best Dressed White Girl, 1987 also Most Beautiful White Girl, 1986" at her high school. She wasn't even particularly surprised by the article.
Zoe: Yeah? Thought you'd get land crazy that long in port. Wash: Probably, but I've been sane a long while now, and change is good.

Our wings are not tired.
But, the refrain is the best singing I've ever heard from her.
So true. I think it's the lack of autotune.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

See, I think they wanted to avoid angry calls by parents of white children if a black child would ever win.

The update to that story on Jezebel shows the school handbook (must be the high school) that allows for a black and a white homecoming court.
