Gay Teen & Straight BFF Prom Dates Have a Night to Remember
A Walmart bakery reportedly refused to put "gay" on their cake, though.
Teen Vogue followed around Anthony and Jacob as they got ready for prom. The two initially made headlines when Jacob, Anthony's straight bff, asked out Anthony, Jacob's gay bff, to the prom in the subtle way every young queen hopes: a giant banner in the middle of the school.
'Twas a perfect night, except for a minor cake contorversy when a local Walmart refused to print the word "gay" on a cake Anthony's aunt wanted made for him and Jacob.
A Walmart spokesperson claimed it was all a big misunderstanding and reportedly reached out Anthony's aunt. Despite that frosted kerfluffle, the unconventional couple had the classic prom experience with plenty of photos, a limo ride and even a spotlight dance.
Better yet, no one had to worry about geting knocked up in the back of a Camaro.
Check out Anthony and Jacob's special night below:
