Memphis White Station HS Student Homecoming Royalty Brandon Allen Wears Dress To Crowning

MEMPHIS, TN. (THECOUNT) — Brandon Allen has been identified as the White Station High School making news Saturday after wearing a dress to be crowned homecoming royalty.

Allen was crowned Friday night during White Station’s game against Bartlett, the school announced on Facebook in a post that’s been shared hundreds of times.

Allen’s crowning raised some eyebrows because he chose to wear a dress for the big moment. Some comments on the school’s Facebook page were critical, but most were supportive and offered congratulations, reports WREG.

White Station Principal Carrye Holland commented on the matter saying, “Here’s the thing: it’s Brandon’s right to run for homecoming court under Title IX. It’s the students’ choice of who they want to support as homecoming royalty.
