The world's most
popular teenager, Miley Cyrus, will celebrate her 16th
birthday at the Disneyland resort in Anaheim, Calif., on
October 5, the same time Gay Days takes place.
The 11th annual
Gay Days event, which attracted 30,000 gays and lesbians
to the park last year, actually takes place October 3-5. Gay
Days describes itself as a "mix-in with straight
parkgoers," where the LGBT crowd wears red shirts. Gay
Days is not Disney-sponsored, so park operators will
not have official regulation over the event.
Cyrus will
celebrate her birthday with 5,000 fans, including volunteers
from Youth Service America on October 5. "I only turn 16
once, so it's going to be an awesome party with my
favorite rides, hanging out with friends, fireworks,
and more," she said in a press release on Thursday.
"I'll even get to sing a couple songs." Cyrus's event
promises fireworks, music, and a celebration for the youth
volunteers. (The Advocate)
