The article that I am writing about is titled NJ teen, with cancer, asking Taylor Swift to prom. A senior that attends Sterling High School has asked Taylor Swift to prom.The prom is on June 1st which happens to be Kevin McGuire's birthday. Kevin McGuire who is 18 years old is diagnosed with leukemia. He is now being treated at Children's hospital because he had a relapse. Kevin is losing hair and doesn't believe anybody will want to go to school with a bold boy. His big sister Tori asked him "I said what if I got Taylor Swift to go to the prom with you? He reacted in a suprised way. His sister added "His eyes lit up for the first time since he was diagnosed." So Kevin's sister set up a facebook paged  called "Taylor Swift take Kevin McGuire To Prom! And 17,000 people accepted the page, and by the time the story was on Action News it had 50,000. Team Kevin was also a trending topic on twitter on wednesday night. Kevin wants Taylor to go because he says she is "Someone who's confident, someone who will make me have a good time and not feel like a sick kid," Kevin said. Kevin would love for her to attend with him. I think she should go because he is sick and his sister is trying really hard to get Taylor as his date. I think as her fan it would be a really nice thing for her to do : )
