GRAB ROSS
TV’s Ross Mathews
By Mark Nagel
Ross Mathews is a co-host of
“Hollywood Today Live” on WPWR
at noon CST, a judge on RuPaul’s
“Drag Race”and a judge in season
two of RuPaul’s “All Stars.” GRAB
Magazine recently had a chance to
talk with this very busy man.
MARK NAGEL: I love you and Kelly
Osbourne on the red carpet. Are
you two friends in real life?
ROSS MATHEWS: We are friends
in real life.
MN: That makes me really happy.
RM: Yes. I just saw her in Palm
Springs. We get in too much trouble
together. Even though she is not on
the red carpet together anymore,
we still text back and forth with
each other during the red carpet
shows all the time.
MN: Has anyone ever offered you
two a TV show together?
RM: People have talked about it
and we have talked about it. You
never know. I would do it in a
heartbeat.
MN: I recently watched the finale of
this season’s “Drag Race,” and
remember I am in Chicago and my
readers are in Chicago. Do you
think the correct contestant won?
RM: It’s not up to me; it’s up to Ru
and I would never question Ru. I
will tell you this: I did not know who
was going to win going into the
finale; the finale is so important.
Remember the season before, I
thought Ginger was going to win
and Violet came in and crushed it.
Watching the finale, my gut told me
Bob was going to win because Bob
killed during his performance and
his interview was real. But I was
proud of all three of them.

It’s
actually
very
difficult for
me. When
I first
started on
the show
and tried
to talk to
the girls,
they
stopped
me and
said I
could not
talk with
them
because

does not

biased. I
also don’t
know
what they
look like
as boys. I
remember
when I
first met
Pearl, I was, like, Pearl is hot, oh my
god!
MN: Will you be back as a judge for
the next season?
RM: Well, you know we have “All
Stars” coming and they have not
announced the judges yet but I
would not be surprised if you saw
me on the panel.
MN: I also just watched “Gay for
Play.” It’s is a fun show to watch. Is
it as fun for you to film?
RM: It’s so fun because it’s really
quick and you get to get your
friends to laugh. It gets difficult in

RM: Never. We really are not
and they pick the panelist they want
allowed to even talk to them at all

am, like, I know a ton on Britney
Spears and the question was, in
which video did she wear a hat? I
got everything wrong and I am a
pop culture expert. The game is
harder than you think but to film, it
is really funny and fun.
MN: How many shows in a day do
you actually film?
RM: “Gay for Pay” is between four
to six a day.
MN: I recently watched “Gay for
Pay” and the other day I watched
you on “Hollywood Today Live.”
Have you lost weight?
RM: I have lost 47 pounds.
MN: I knew it!
RM: When we shot “Drag Race,” I
was 47 pounds heavier and if I am
on “All Stars,” I will be 47 pounds
heavier because that was filmed so
long ago. It is for me nice to see the
difference.
watching it in Chicago, because we
are a great alternative.
MN: How did you do
it?
RM: I have lost
weight before. One
time was for a TV
show and one time
for a weight loss
campaign. This time,
I did it for me and I
had as much protein
as I wanted, I walk
everyday and I am
going to start doing
some gym time.
MN: On a recent
episode of
“Hollywood Today
Live,” you were
working out with
Jess, the trainer from
“Biggest Loser.” Is he
as hot in person as
he is on TV?
RM: Thanks for
focusing on the
important stuff. Yes,
he is. I love that you
watch “Hollywood
Today Live.” Isn’t it a
fun show? I have the
best time doing this
show.

MN: On “Hollywood

have a stylist or are
you dressing yourself?
You look great.
RM: Thank you.

MN: I actually
recently found it and
stopped to watch
because you were on
the show.
RM: We are having
the best time. We are
live from Hollywood
and are on coast to
coast. It started as
an Internet show. A
lot of the talk shows
are dying but we are
guaranteed until
August 2017. We
work very hard but
we talk pop culture.
We have had Kelly
Osbourne, Kris
Jenner and Khloe
Kardashian on. We
have Kelly Rowland coming on

been the weirdest thing that has

it looks like people are

Weird stuff happens
and there are some
strange people with
us. We do embrace it.
Joel Macay has said
he watches the show

GRAB A BOOK
9 New LGBT Books to Keep Your Summer
Reading List Lit
By Mikey Rox
Summer is just starting to heat up – literally! – and it’s time to hit the beach. Throw down a towel, pop open
the umbrella, and sink into the sand with these LGBT-themed recreational reads that’ll keep you entertained all
season long.
Here Comes the Sun
by Nicole Dennis-Benn
Heralded as one of the best books of the
summer by Marie Claire, Redbook, Elle magazine,
Publishers Weekly, and the
New York Times, DennisBenn’s debut novel exposes
the dark corners of
womanhood set against the
sun-drenched resorts of
Jamaica as Margot, taught as
a girl to trade her sexuality for
survival, commits her life to
ensuring that her younger
sister Thandi doesn’t suffer the
same fate. When plans for a
new hotel threaten their
village, Margot is forced to
confront the many burdens she bears, including her
fight for financial independence and her forbidden
love for another woman.
Heart in Chains
by Elodie Parkes
Relationship-weary Conner,
scorned and single, escapes to
Indonesia to put the past
behind him. Mysterious Jay
Levesque holds secrets of his
own as he tries to put a lifetime
of dangerous liaisons to rest.
Alas, neither of their hesitations
are a match for the romance of
the exotic island or its erotic
summer nights.
Boy Erased
by Garrard Conley
As the LGBT community
continues to struggle with religious
acceptance in a post-Orlando
world, Conley’s memoir about
being outed and forced to make a
life-changing decision – agree to
conversion therapy or be disowned
– is even more poignant and
important. Heartbreaking and
courageous, Boy Erased will
simultaneously enrage you and
make your count your blessings.

The Pink Marine
by Greg Cope White
Gay Mormon Greg Cope
White hilariously recounts the
summer he haphazardly enlisted
in the pre-Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell
Marine Corps at age 18 and
spent a summer in boot camp
(because all he heard was
“summer” and “camp” when his
best friend proposed the idea),
an exper-ience that gave the
author a sense of belonging and
self-worth in the last place he ever expected it.
Knit Tight
by Annabeth Albert
The fourth installment in
Albert’s Portland Heat series,
which received the April 2016
Seal of Excellence by RT Book
Reviews, Knit Tight gets tangled
up in the would-be affections of
Brady and Evren – a well-liked
local barista and charming outof-towner, respectively – as
Brady tries to get the handsome
stranger out of the friend zone
and into frothier territory.
I Am Woman: Surviving the
Past, the Present & the
Future
By Daliah Husu
Still having trouble making
heads or tails of the “T” in LGBT?
You’re not alone. Many of our
lesbian, gay and bi brothers and
sisters struggle with what it
means to be transgender – and
how to appropriately address,
recognize, and appreciate
transgender people – but Husu’s
honest and emotionally charged memoir shines a
flickering light on her stigmatized world of self-hatred,
dependency on men, drug abuse, sex work, and what
it’s like to be a not-so-privileged trans woman in
America. You can’t understand another person’s
experience until you’ve walked in their shoes, as they
say, and it’s time to take the first step.
Jury of One
by Charlie Cochrane
A murder in nearby
Abbotston thrusts inspector
Robin Bright into yet another
intricate web of crimes, but
there’s something more curious
about this case: An old crush of
Robin’s lover Adam pops up in
the murder investigation,
ultimately jeopardizing the happy
couple’s relationship in this homo
whodunit. Jury of One is the
second book of the Lindenshaw
Mysteries series.

GRAB ROGER
Death with Dignity
and Control
By Roger V. McCaffrey-Boss, Esq.
Q: My husband has cancer and
his sister and I want to ensure that
when he dies, he does so at home
with his family and friends. We want
to maintain control so that my
husband can die at home with
dignity and with as little pain as
possible. What should we do?
A: Unfortunately, there is a vast
sea of uncertainty and ignorance
when the issue is raised of a dying
patient’s right to refuse medical
treatment. Most doctors and nurses
have had no lessons in dying.
Removing life supports and
permitting death is traumatic for
some doctors and nurses.
Doctors and nurses both fear
that failure to treat will be interpreted
as abandonment of the patient, and
they both may need to be reassured
repeatedly by the patient, spouse or
family members that hand holding
and kind words are all that is
expected or desired.
Even when doctors and nurses
are willing to carry out patient
wishes, many times they or the
institutions they work in may have
misconceptions about existing
guidelines, laws and legal liability
associated with not treating the
terminally ill. For example, many
professionals think that the
18
GRAB Magazine
permission to withdraw or
withhold treatment applies only to
heroic measure, like
cardiopulmonary resuscitation,
and not to ordinary measures like
feeding the patient through a tube.
There is also an important
distinction between not starting
life-sustaining measures and
withdrawing measures already in
place. It is far harder to pull the
plug than not to plug it in to begin
with. Families and spouses who
understand this can be forthright
in their discussions with doctors,
acknowledging their sensitivities
and condoning their hesitation,
but also making it clear that
pulling the plug is acceptable.
If it is your desire to
discontinue life-sustaining medical
treatment in the event of a terminal
condition or incurable disease and
remain at home during the death
process, you will need to sign a
health care power of attorney. A
health care power of attorney is the
legal document in which you give
someone you choose the power to
make medical decisions when you
cannot.
More importantly, you can
empower your agent in a health care
power to withhold food and water if
that is your desire, and your agent
can be empowered to ensure that
when you die, you do so at home or
in a hospice.
Unlike a living will, the health
care power of
attorney doesn’t
require that the
patient be
terminally ill
before it takes
effect. Your
doctor can rely
upon the
decisions of your
agent if the
doctor believes
that you lack the
capacity to give
informed consent
to health care
treatment or the
refusal and
termination of
care.
Also, don’t check
into a hospital;
stay at home. It is
easier to not start
treatment than to
terminate it once
June 28, 2016
it has started. Or make
arrangements to enter a hospice. If
you are hospitalized, remember you
always have the right to check out of
a hospital and go home if that’s your
desire. Call a cab and leave.
It is the Health Care Power of
Attorney that allows a person to
grant their agent the right to give
consent to and authorize or refuse,
or withhold any and all types of
medical care, treatment or
procedures, including any
medication program, surgical
procedures and life-sustaining
treatment, even if death would
ensue. The law allows a person to
specify to what extent and under
what circumstances they want their
agent to use or withdraw lifesustaining treatment.
And the power gives the agent
the right to admit the person to or
discharge the person from any and
all types of hospitals, institutions,
homes, residential or nursing
facilities, treatment centers and
other health care institutions
providing personal care or treatment
for any type of physical or mental
condition.

GRAB HOLLY
No More
“Fluffy Bunny”
By Holly Maholm
The events in Orlando have
caused me to adopt an unforeseen
and even shocking resolution, which I
will share with you in a moment. But
first, let me tell you about my
daughter’s pet rabbit “Sprinkles.”
Now, despite what you may be
imagining (picturing a multi-colored
rainbow of sparkling candy bits
scattered across the top of a
chocolate sundae), Sprinkles, in fact,
had a coat of the purest, unbroken jet
black fur you will ever see.
At the time, Sprinkles lived in our
house with our family dog, Daisy, who
– on that universally-recognized scale
of “Fierce and Fearsome Animals” –
was listed not at the top of the scale
(where she imagined herself to be, at
“Snarling Wolf”) but, instead, was
properly to be found down at the
bottom, under the heading “Fluffy
Bunny.”
Now, my daughter would
sometimes let them play together in
the back yard – under her careful
supervision, of course, lest “nature
take its course.”
And you know what? Sometimes,
Daisy would get a little too rough with
Sprinkles, and her idea of “fun” would
start trending over into “pinning down
her prey for the kill.” But guess what?
Sprinkles would fight back! Despite
22
GRAB Magazine
Daisy being four times his weight and
a “carnivorous canine” (descendent
of a wolf), Sprinkles would defend
himself. He would use his teeth and
claws to bite and scratch and send
the message “STOP!” if Daisy got too
aggressive.
What I learned – what my
daughter saw – was this: That every
living creature will defend itself. Push
that fluffy black bunny into a corner,
and he will come out biting and
scratching and refusing to be taken
down without a fight.
Thinking about Orlando, I will
quickly acknowledge that no one
would have imagined or predicted
what took place, and Pulse did, after
all, have an armed guard out front,
who was overcome by the attack. So I
do not blame anyone there in any
way.
But on the other hand, I do feel it
is time for us LGBT folks to borrow a
phrase from our Hebrew brothers and
sisters: Never again. This means…
we must be brave and vigilant. We
must assert our own individual right
and duty to defend ourselves. Are our
lives of less worth than a rabbit’s?
Thinking further on the subject,
can you imagine an attack such as
happened in Orlando happening at…
a biker bar? Not likely! What grievous
moron would walk into a biker bar and
think he could terrorize those patrons!
(In high school, I used to frequent a
biker bar near where I lived. The
parking lot after dark looked like a
Harley dealership. And if you ride a
Harley, you cannot leave your Smith &
Wesson under the
seat when you go
into the bar. You have
to bring it in with you.
I can assure you, you
will never see such
polite behavior, such
restrained
conversation, and
such kindly tolerance
for your fellow
citizens, as you will
see in a biker bar.)
Have you read the
threats and boasts
coming from certain
Christian preachers,
as they address the
possibility of a
transgender woman
using the same
Ladies Room as their
wives or daughters?
They assure their
June 28, 2016
flock that the only possible reaction to
such depravity is to assault that
tranny. Perhaps even shoot her or
beat her up. Because that is how
bullies phrase their threats. Not “I will
give that tranny a piece of my mind”
but “I will beat her to death!”
Such preachers think they are free
to make such threats because they
believe we LGBT folk – in this case,
transgender women – are nothing
more than “Fluffy Bunnies.” These
Christian-cowards have every
confidence that if they confront us in
the Ladies Room - and if they
commence a “Biblically-approved”
assault upon one of us - we won’t
fight back. And, we must admit, this
might have been the reaction of a gay
or transgender child back when we
were in elementary school. But no
longer.
I live in Ohio, and our state law
permits any responsible citizen (with a
few exceptions) to obtain a license to
“Carry a Concealed Weapon” (called
“CCW”). Right now, Ohio has issued
about 500,000 CCW licenses, but I
promise you, next month that number
will be 500,001.
Thereafter, when I go out where
my LGBT brothers and sisters are
gathered, I will think of myself as a
sort of non-governmental - but
trained, motivated and prepared –
“Sky Marshall” for my fellow travelers.
A person who has practiced and
received training, wearing civilian
clothes, and blending in with all the
other trannies. But if something
happens… I will remember Sprinkles,
who – despite his soft and downy fur
– was no “Fluffy Bunny” in a fight. Holly Maholm is a transgender
woman living in Cleveland, Ohio.

Nation’s Premier LGBT Civil
Rights Summit Releases 31
LGBT History Month Icons
PHILADELPHIA, PA – Ahead
of Equality Forum 2016, scheduled
to take place during this summer’s
Democratic National Convention,
the nation’s premier lesbian, gay,
bisexual and transgender (LGBT)
civil rights summit today released
31 LGBT History Month Icons –
seven of whom relate directly to
politics and the Democratic
National Convention. “As part of this year’s list of
LGBT History Month Icons, we
thought it was important to mark
the close connection and historic
role our community has played in
the democratic process,” said
Malcolm Lazin, Equality Forum’s
Founder and Executive Director. “Since the 24th annual Equality
Forum will take place July 25th
through July 28th during the
Democratic National Convention in
Philadelphia, several of this year’s
LGBT History Month Icons were
selected for the important role they
have played in representing the
LGBT movement within the
Democratic Party and politics in
general.” Equality Forum 2016 recently
announced that this year’s summit
will be held July 25th through July
28th during the Democratic
National Convention in
Philadelphia, PA. Equality Forum
2016 will bring together elected
officials, newsmakers and LGBT
experts for groundbreaking panel
discussions on the state and future
of the LGBT movement, as well as
two historic marker dedications and
award ceremonies. LGBT History Month,
coordinated by the Equality Forum,
celebrates the achievements of 31
national and international lesbian,
gay, bisexual and transgender
(LGBT) icons. Each day in
October, a new LGBT icon is
featured with a video, bibliography,
downloadable images and other
resources for use in classrooms,
educational institutions, community
groups and other venues
throughout the country. A
downloadable database of previous
LGBT History Month Icons dating
back to 2006, as well as additional
information, is available at:
www.lgbthistorymonth.com
The 2016 LGBT History Month
Icons announced today by the
Equality Forum who relate directly
34
GRAB Magazine
to the Democratic National
Convention and/or Democratic
politics are described below:
Virginia Apuzzo A former nun,
Apuzzo was the founding director
of the then- named National Gay
Task Force and played a leading
role in the inclusion of the
first gay and lesbian plank in the
1976 Democratic National
Convention platform.
Brian Bond Founding
executive director of the thennamed Gay and Lesbian
Victory Fund, Bond helped grow
the visibility and size of the
organization that trains and
campaigns for out LGBT
candidates for public office.After
leaving the Victory Fund, Bond
then became Deputy Director for
the White House Office of Public
Engagement during President
Obama’s Administration. He is
currently the Deputy CEO for
Public Engagement for the 2016
Democratic National Convention.
Midge Costanza Constanza
was named by President Jimmy
Carter as Assistant to the President
for Public Liaison, nicknamed “the
President’s window to the nation.”In
that role, Constanza invited
fourteen gay and lesbian
leaders to the White House in
March 1977 at the height of Anita
Bryant’s homophobic campaigns.
Jeanne Cordova In the 1980s,
Cordova helped found the Gay and
Lesbian Caucus of the Democratic
Party and served as one of thirty
open lesbian delegates to the 1980
Democratic National Convention.

years, Tobias has been Treasurer

Observance of International
Women’s Year.

Equality Florida Pulse
Victim Fund Totals $6M;
Disbursements Expedited
ORLANDO, FL - Equality
Florida's fundraising efforts for the
victims' families and survivors of the
Pulse Nightclub Shooting have
raised over $6 million, the vast
majority from a GoFundMe
campaign that has drawn more
than 114,000 contributors from
across the world and all facets of
society; as well as pledges from
corporate sponsors and grassroots
fundraising efforts locally and
globally.
We applaud Orlando’s victim
service center and community
partners for meeting immediate
emergency needs for the victims'
families and survivors. In working
with our partners at the National
Center for Victims of Crime
(NCVC), we are expediting the
process of fund disbursement to
ensure there is no gap in the safety
net for these families. We expect
funds to be dispersed as quickly as
eight weeks via the NCVC's
National Compassion Fund.
The NCVC will work with
partners to quickly verify their
identity, identify their expenses, and
process disbursements.
Undocumented victims’ families and
survivors qualify for these financial
resources, and as victims of crime,
are protected.
In a world where marriage
equality only recently became a
possibility, and domestic
partnership is not widely available,
it is our top priority to ensure we
address the unique needs of the
LGBTQ and Latino/a communities
impacted from the Pulse Nightclub
Shooting.
We are humbled that our efforts
have been endorsed by more than
100 past victims of gun violence
who know better than anyone how
desperately these resources are
needed.
The distribution of funds to the
victims and families of mass
casualty crimes, including
shootings and terrorist attacks,
requires the highest level of
transparency, complete
accountability and closely managed
stages of distribution. Please visit
this link for an in-depth description
of our plan to do exactly that: http://

THEATER
ABOUT FACE THEATRE
ANNOUNCES 2016-17
SEASON
Broadway hit about the founding of
the Mattachine Society, the first
sustained LGBT rights organization
in the U.S., and the love affair of
two of its founding members, Harry
Hay and emigree Rudi Gernrich.
Taking its title from 1950’s slang for
“homosexual,” Maran’s play
examines what it took to stand up
in the sea of grey flannel suits and
demand your humanity, your
visibility and your rights. “The Temperamentals is stylish,
sensitive and smart, exploring a
time of incredible invisibility for the
LGBTQ community,” comments
Volkoff. “Moran’s play asks us take
stock of where we came from and,
in light of recent events like the
Orlando shooting massacre and
controversy over transgender
restrooms, provides a sobering
reminder that we still have a long
fight ahead.”
About Face’s season continues
into the spring with the Chicago
premiere of Pulitzer Prize
nominee Tanya Barfield’s contemporary love story Bright Half
Life, directed by AFT Artistic
Associate Keira Fromm and
featuring AFT Artistic
Associate Elizabeth Ledo. Winner of the 2016 Lambda
Literary Award for Best Play, Bright
Half Life May 26 – July 1, 2017
follows the ups and downs of a
modern lesbian relationship. Their
moving story is told through a
series of fast moving, fragmented
memories – from elevator rides as
strangers to steamy workplace
romances to heartache and
building a family.
“I’m excited to feature Tanya
Barfield’s work, a fresh
counterbalance to this season’s
historical pieces,” comments
Volkoff. “Tanya’s language is
muscular and sparkles, but it was
her inventive structure that
captured me. She’s created a
verbal tilt-a-whirl for the audience,
echoing the ins and outs of modern
relationships.” About Face Theatre has also
announced that William Boles, Bob Kuhn and Mieka Van der
Ploeg will be joining About Face
Theatre as Artistic Associates.
About Face Theatre’s 2016-17
mainstage season will also include
a yet-to-be-titled world premiere
devised by the About Face Youth
Theatre Ensemble. About Face
Theatre is in residence at Theater
Wit, 1229 W. Belmont Ave. in
Chicago. AFT’s On Demand
Memberships – a flexible, yearround membership ticket are
currently available
at aboutfacetheatre.com. Single
tickets for additional programming
will go on sale at a later date.
About Face Theatre has
announced its 2016-17 Season,
kicking off this fall/winter with a
reimagining of I Am My own
Wife, Doug Wright’s Tony, Pulitzer
Prize and Lambda Literary Awardwinning play first developed at
About Face in 2003. I Am My own Wife November 4
– December 10, 2016is based on
the true story of Charlotte von
Mahlsdorf (born Lothar Berfelde)
who, against all odds, hid from the
Nazi and Communist regimes in
East Berlin in plain sight dressed a
woman. Traditionally staged as a
one-person play performed by a
male actor, Director Andrew
Volkoff’s re-examination will
feature transgender actress Delia
Kropp and two additional actors.
The new production will frame
Charlotte’s story through a
transgender lens, celebrating
transvisibility through the life story
of one of the most fascinating
transgender women in historical
record.
“I’m excited to dig back into
Charlotte’s story with Delia, who
brings a refreshing authenticity to
the role,” comments Andrew
Volkoff. “Working with Delia and the
two other actors removes the
virtuosity from the piece, focusing
instead on Doug Wright’s fantastic
text, re-emphasizing Charlotte’s
narrative, and creating new
visibility for her in this context.
Wright, who has remained a loyal
AFT supporter, has given us his
blessing to cast the role in this way.
He is excited by its historical
significance and the possibilities
that new transgender and nontransgender audiences will be
exposed not only to Delia’s
considerable talents, but Charlotte
von Mahlsdorf’s story in a new
way.” About Face continues its
21st season next winter with the
Chicago premiere of The
Tempermentals January 13 –

Kokandy Productions Presents
TOMORROW MORNING
July 9 – August 28, 2016 at
Theater Wit
Kokandy Productions will
conclude its 2016 season this
summer with the funny, intimate
and moving musical Tomorrow
Morning with book, music and
lyrics by Laurence Mark Wythe,
directed by Co-Artistic Director John D. Glover, music direction
by Kory Danielson and choreography by Cameron Turner. Tomorrow Morning will play July 9
– August 28, 2016 at Theater
Wit, 1229 W. Belmont Ave. in
Chicago.
Tomorrow Morning follows two
couples, separated by time, both
preparing for a monumental day
ahead. When morning comes,
twenty-somethings John and Kat
will marry and embark upon a new
life, while older couple Jack and
Catherine will sign their divorce
papers. Trouble is, is anyone really
sure they’re doing the right thing? Tomorrow Morning is about the
uncertainty of impending change
and ultimately, the redeeming
power of love. Featuring Carl Herzog, Teressa LaGamba, Tina
Naponelli and Neil Stratman. Since its London debut in
2006, Tomorrow Morning has
played on four continents and has
been translated into four
languages. The 2011 OffBroadway production earned an
Outer Critics' Circle Award
nomination for Best New OffBroadway Musical.
“Tomorrow Morning is both
heartwarming and heartbreaking,”
comments director John D. Glover.
“This show really speaks to
anyone who has ever been in a
relation-ship, to have one end
when they thought it would last
forever, and for anyone who has
ever contemplated sharing their life
with someone else. It is about how
tiny moments can become huge,
and no matter how strong a
relationship once seemed, life can
quickly make it as fragile as a
flower,” adds Glover.
Tickets are currently available
at www.kokandyproductions.co
m, by calling 773-975-8150 or in
person at the Theater Wit Box
Office.

FHB HAS ARRIVED
SCHEDULED TO HIT RADIO
JUNE 2016, NATIONALLY
FHB is bursting out onto the
music scene with unpursued
promotion. It is unknown whether
FHB is a group, duo or solo. FHB
stands for one thing - female
empowerment with creative
freedom.
FHB has made some key
appearances and performances
off the back of their upcoming
single “REGULAR” that was
leaked and picked up by
numerous radio stations that have
heralded this act. With every
appearance this act seems to
always be in a masked caricature
of a secret identity and what’s
rumored is that this reflects the
message of female
empowerment.
The first single REGULAR is
set to release in June and will
impact Urban and Rhythmic
radio. Label head Joseph Charles
says “As a record producer the
creative process in developing a
sound is important. As a manager
having the product and
cooperation is imperative, and as
a record exec having an artist that
understands the "business" of
music makes all the
difference. FHB is all of those
things and more.” The single also
features J.R. who has made
waves with the co-sign of Trey
Songz and has been making
quite the impression with the
Urban Industry. FHB will be rolling
out a full on assault of imagery
and content to further tell the
story of who FHB is.

GRAB WESLEY
PORN
Porn Star
Wesley Woods
By Tom Olah
TOM OLAH: Where did you grow
up?
WESLEY WOODS: I grew up on a
horse ranch in Texas, about one
hour northeast of Dallas, with an
older and younger brother; we were
our parents’ ranch-hands.
TO: Were you a funny kid growing
up?
WW: Funny, yes; a performer, even
more so. I love being the life of the
party and I’ve always enjoyed
making others feel comfortable,
loved and included. TO: How and when did the standup comedy start?
WW: It was always a dream. I
stopped
dreaming,
started
doing and
told fear it
didn’t
belong in
my life. I’ve
performed
at many
different
places
around the
country,
including
SLS and
Hard Rock
Hotel in
Las Vegas
and improv theaters. I
am so happy. It has
been the best years of
my life and I can’t wait
to see how far I’m able
to take my story.
TO: Logic would tell
me stand-up comedy
and porn are not an
easy mix, so I have to
ask, how and why did
you get into porn?
WW: Sex is how life is
created. Instead of sex
shaming people, I’ve
embraced the funny
part of sex, sexuality,
fetishes, fears and
stories that we can all
laugh at and relate to. I
reached out to a few
people once I decided
it was the route I
wanted to take with
my story. The rest has
been meeting some
people along the way
to help me become
part of the industry
family.
Why: I was always
44
GRAB Magazine
June 28, 2016
taught to love myself, never be
embarrassed and never follow the
crowd. I never looked at porn as,
“porn.” Plus, I was getting really
tired of asking guys, “into?” and
“looking?”
TO: Do you think your friends
watch your movies?
WW: I’m not sure. I definitely do not
mind if they do. That is why I’m in
the business, to be watched.
[Smiles] TO: What do you think is the
biggest misconception people have
about those who work in porn?
WW: The biggest misconception
I’ve encountered is that people
truly believe I want to receive a
picture of their asshole. I don’t. No
one does and no one should have
to see your balloon knot in all its
unglory.
TO: Who do you still want to work
with?
WW: Tegan Zayne.
TO: Have you ever had a chemistry
problem on the set?
WW: Yes. Have you ever had a coworker you weren’t fond of? It
happens. That’s why, as
performers, we are
paid to perform.
When I go to work, I
make sure I’m ready
to work.
TO: What is the
most difficult
problem working in
gay porn?
WW: Not losing your
load before you’re
allowed. Listen, I’m
no two pump dump.
But I have had the
pleasure of working
with some of the
sexiest guys in the
industry.
TO: What movies
can we look forward
to be seeing you in
this year?
WW: There is a
major production
with Falcon that will
be coming out this
fall. That is all I can
say, but, you will
know it when it’s
released. TO: Since this last Grabby Awards
was your first, did you have fun?
WW: Oh, I had fun. And if people
missed it, don’t miss next year. TO: Since you passed all the tests,
how does it feel being the first
person announced to be a Grabby
co-host for 2017?
WW: I am so incredibly excited to
have been announced, officially, as
a co-host for the 2017 Grabbys.
Someone signing off on me having
a mic in my hand has to be aware
of the insanity that will occur. I
cannot wait.
TO: Best way for your fans to keep
up with all things Wesley Woods?
WW: Follow my social media
accounts: Facebook, Wesley
Woods; Instagram and Twitter,
_wesleywoods_
Wesley will be appearing July
2nd at the Dunes Resort in
Saugatuck for more information

Towel Off
2016. Hot House Video
Directed by Tony Dimarco
Starring: Bravo Delta, Sebastian Kross, Jimmy
Durano, Austin Wolf, Bruno Bernal, Gabriel Cross,
Jack Hunter and Josh Conners
Does a good locker room fantasy turn you on?
First is Josh Conners alone in the shower and
having a lot of fun soaping himself up, so much so
he goes to his locker to find a sex toy (a generic
looking Fleshjack). Luckily, Sebastian Kross comes
in and wants to help out. After some dick sucking on
Conners' part, it's Kross putting a dick up Conners'
ass. Next Bravo Delta is showering and happens to
have a hard-on when Gabriel Cross comes by and
thinks he should have this on film. Well Cross gets
caught and Delta takes it out on Cross's ass. It's
Jimmy Durano's turn to be naked and hard in the
shower when Jack Hunter comes by and decides to
join him with his hard cock. We all know it's Durano
doing the fucking, but all I can say is it would've
been really hot to see Hunter's big hard cock up
Durano's ass! Now it's Austin Wolf's shower time
when Bruno Bernal stops by and checks Wolf out.
He then starts taking selfies of his ass in his
jockstrap, which Wolf enjoys and the boys are naked
and fucking in record time. Good sex by all, I just
want to know where to find a gym with this much sex
in the locker room?
