Comedian Ron White Joins Star-Studded Orpheus Parade

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Blue Collar Comedy's Ron White will join the Krewe of Orpheus during Monday's parade.

         White tells WVUE-TV he's spent many a night in New Orleans but somehow never made it to Mardi Gras. And, he says he's traveled the city's streets on every conceivable form of transportation, except a float.

         In addition to White, celebrity notables rolling with Orpheus 2015 include country singer Dierks Bentley; NCIS: New Orleans cast members Lucas Black, Zoe McLellan, Rob Kerkovich and CCH Pounder plus show creator Gary Glasberg; Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Lisa Vanderpump; and the homegrown winner of RuPaul's Drag Race, Bianca del Rio aka Roy Haylock.
