Photos of a Bahamian teenager arriving to her senior prom have been circulating the Internet for reasons you wouldn’t expect.
The girl, hoping to make a grand entrance, arrived to her prom in an ambulance. She ‘awakened’ only after her prom date kissed her.
“Prince Charming” indeed.
Ashvonn Russell, who hopes to become an artist, was hoping to win the “Best Entrance” award by drawing on the well known Sleeping Beauty fairytale.
While the photos of her entrance have certainly captured attention, not everyone agrees that the stunt was such a great idea.
Many on social media are decrying her use of an ambulance for a purpose that was clearly not an emergency.
Still, Russell says she isn’t paying her detractors any mind.
“My hope for this theme was genuinely and solely to win best entrance by my unique style of entry and not for some of the negative attention and exposure it has received,” she said.
“To those that have creative minds like myself, do not let the negativity stop you,” she continued. “Always dare to be different.”
