Second Day of Festival Smashes Attendance Records Another night, another record-breaking attendance, and a new attitude. PrideFest continued into its second day with stellar performances by Lena Katina of electronica group t.A.T.u, pop opera singer Rose Jang, Oprah-favorite Charice, comedian Bruce Vilanch and the legendary Miss Patti LaBelle. Before the diva and divas-in-training took the stage, PrideFest's day was filled with educational, family, youth, and health activities. The LGBT History Project chronicles the community's heritage in an intimate tent just near the entrance of the festival. Families enjoyed magicians and animal showcases. Youth participated in fashion shows and an inter-generational dialogue. PrideFest hosted HIV testing in the Health and Wellness Area. Mayor Tom Barrett even paid a visit applauding PrideFest for another "lovely festival." As the cloudy day turned into a clear night, Lena Katina's high-octave voice filled the evening air. The beautiful siren sang solo ballads as well as hits from her days as one-half of the electronica/dance music group t.A.T.u. After a colorful fireworks display, Bruce Vilanch hosted the headline show likening the festival to "a gay cruise." The show also featured Rose Jang and Charice (who won acclaim and an enthusiastic thumbs up from Oprah Winfrey and Patti LaBelle ). Lena Katina even did the can-can backstage as Jang sang, "All That Jazz."
