The queer mecca of San Francisco celebrated Pride yesterday, with religion-mocking, potty-mouthed Sarah Silverman at the head as Grand Marshall, along with Glee’s Dot Jones and Drag Race star Carmen Carrera. Also bring the fabulous were former mayor Willie Brown,  Bishop Disani Christopher Senyonjo, the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, current mayor Ed Lee, The Harvey Milk Democratic Club, Marriage Equality USA, San Francisco Police Officer Pride Alliance, the ACLU of Northern California, Macy’s, Walden House, HRC and other community, activist and commercial groups.

The million-strong rainbow brigade made its way down Market Street, winding up at Civic Center Plaza with a six-hour party that saw  Karmin, Jessica Sutta, Ssion and Kimberly Caldwell all performing under a sunny sky.
