West Hollywood Mayor takes stand for gay marriage
Most Hollywood couples go out of their way to avoid paparazzi. But on Sunday, just moments after he officially registered as a domestic partner with Raymundo Vizcarra, West Hollywood Mayor Jeffrey Prang jumped in front of the television cameras. "We don't have marriage," he said at the close of the ceremony. "We don't have that choice here in West Hollywood today." Unable to preside over gay marriages as Mayor Gavin Newsom did in San Francisco, the 41-year-old Prang decided to turn his own ceremony into a political event. Palm Springs Mayor Ron Oden officiated, lacing his remarks with references to privileges denied same-sex couples.
