Dress to Prom

It's the night high schoolers dress to impress: the senior prom, but one South Florida student says his outfit of choice is out after the principal stepped in to stop it. Help me Howard with Patrick Fraser tries this one on for size.

WSVN -- High school is tough for kids and became worse for Martavian Johnson when both his parents passed away.

Martavian Johnson: "My dad died like a year and half ago, and my mom died like a month and half ago. I like to see myself as a strong individual, I've coped with it."

Copes by living with his older brother. That makes him different, and this makes him stand out as well.

Martavian Johnson: "I'm gay."
