Marina High School in Huntington Beach, Calif., elected a transgender homecoming queen Friday.
Cassidy Lynn Campbell, 16, says she couldn't be herself until this year when she began living her life as a female.
Campbell told KTLA, "I'm so proud to win this not just for me but for everyone out there and for every kid -- transgender, gay, straight, black, white, Mexican, Asian. It doesn't matter, you can be yourself."
