NEW YORK - Miley Cyrus and late-night talk show host Andy Cohen have been recognized at amfAR’s sixth annual Inspiration Gala in New York for their work in the fight against Aids.
The 22-year-old Cyrus is an outspoken advocate for the LGBTQ community. She’s launched a new campaign on Instagram where she posts photos of people across the gender spectrum.
Cyrus arrived at Tuesday’s red carpet with photographer, poet and former contestant on Oxygen’s “The Glee Project,” Tyler Ford. She posted a photo of Ford on Instagram before the event saying, “Tyler is a queer, biracial, agender person.”
The Inspiration Gala included a runway show, awards presentation and performance by Mary J. Blige.
amFAR is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the support of AIDS research and HIV prevention and education.
