Rose Queen Louise Siskel, center top, made history on New Year's Day as she was the first Jewish and LGBT queen in the Tournament of Roses parade in Pasadena. Siskel wrote in a Los Angeles Times op-ed that this year's Royal Court was one of the most diverse ever and that she's proud to be openly bisexual. Joining her as part of the Royal Court on the parade float was Lauren Baydaline.
