This week's issue is Wire Magazine's second Hot Models Calendar of 2019. We feature three hot guys for the months of April, May and June, who were photographed by Photo Studio Miami. Enjoy the photos and feel free to pin up the calendar to your wall. In Health & Wellness, we sat down with Dr. Robert Goubeaux, D.O. to learn more about Care Resource's community healthcare services, and its Miami Beach office located at 1680 Michigan Avenue. Care Resource has been helping our LGBTQ community for 35 years. If you need a standard check-up, treatment or STD testing, Care Resource's facilities in Miami-Dade and Broward counties can help you. Care Resource provides comprehensive primary medical and preventive care, dental care, in-house pharmacy services, and behavioral health/substance abuse services without any discrimination. In Arts Newsie, we preview Andrew Lloyd Webber's hit, School Of Rock – The Musical, coming to the Adrienne Arsht Center for a limited one-week run, April 9-14. This is a great Broadway musical that I really enjoyed seeing when it came to the Broward Center for the Performing Arts. The kids in the cast are very accomplished stage actors and musicians in their own right. They play instruments, sing and dance, and act in a musical that you will thoroughly enjoy watching. In Top Trax, music writer DJ FR8-O takes a look at how Australian born singer Betty Who is once again flaunting her independence on her third album appropriately titled Betty. According to Who, "I am going to be the most me I can be," and that's exactly what she does in her new album. I also invite you to visit wiremag.com and read our Entertainment Picks column where we preview an Intimate Conversation with Michelle Obama coming to the BB&T Center, the Arsht Center's Miami Fusion 13th Anniversary Concert starring Juanes and Brian Stokes Mitchell, and comedian Wanda Sykes' upcoming show at the Hard Rock Event Center in the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino.

TOP TRAX By DJ FR8-O
BETTY WHO f you were to ask someone if they like Betty Who's music, chances are the response you'll get is "Who?" It's not because she's a new artist just starting out, or that she's a classic diva who's been away from the scene too long, and therefore unfamiliar to a fresh generation of music revelers. The truth is, ever since her infectious debut song "Somebody Loves You" became the center of a gay wedding proposal gone viral in 2012, Betty Who (aka Jessica Newham) has been on a worldwide adventure, performing at Pride events, music festivals and making synthpop the way it was meant to be heard. So why isn't she blazing the charts with the likes of our other LGBTQ advocates like Ariana, Gaga or Dua? Perhaps it's because Betty Who has a sound that goes beyond the Top 40 box that labels like to put their artists in. RCA gave
RECLAIMS HER INDEPENDENCE it a shot when they snatched Newham up shortly after her internet explosion and tried to mold her into a practically unrecognizable version of herself. The move did nothing to bring Who to the mainstream spotlight and almost cost her the audience that made her in the first place. Now that she's broken free of the label chains, the Australian born singer is once again flaunting her independence on her third album; the appropriately titled Betty. Who made it a point to go into this album with just one goal: "I am going to be the most me I can be," and that's exactly what we get.
You won't find your next club banger on this record, but we're fine with that. Betty Who's debut song was the battle cry that echoed around the globe, jumpstarting LGBTQ proposals worldwide as effortlessly as it ignited her career, and it's doubtful that she'll ever be able to recreate that moment again. Until she does, at least we can take comfort in the fact that the old Betty is back and better than ever!

This refreshing new set opens with "Old Me," a track that could easily be heard as the celebration of a break-up, but something tells me the relationship she's describing is more professional than romantic. The rest of the set flows seamlessly through uplifting tales of self-confidence and emotional fearlessness, weaved into musical tapestries reminiscent of pop anthems from the late ("Stop Thinking About You") to mid-'90s ("All This Woman") to early 2000s ("The One"). The sinfully delicious swirl of the old and new can be credited to one Peter Thomas, Who's longtime songwriting and producing partner who seems to have discovered the next big pop formula.

SCHOOL OF ROCK – THE MUSICAL

Michael Bustamante: What first drew you to the stage? JP Qualters: I was first drawn to the stage at a very young age. I was very lucky to grow up in Boston, which has a lot of opportunities for me to perform and learn about the craft of theatre. I was lucky to dance at some amazing studios and take voice lessons at Emerson College growing up! MB: What is your earliest memory of performing? JQ: My earliest memory of performing is, of course, at my dance recitals each year, but professionally it was at a theatre in the Boston area. I got to do Will Rogers Follies as well as Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.
MB: Describe School of Rock for those who have never seen the Broadway show or film. JQ: Well, if you haven't seen the musical and/or the movie you are missing out! School of Rock is a show about a musician named Dewey, who wants to compete in the battle of the bands, but the character I play, Theo, kicks him out of their group. So, in order to compete, he has to lie and work as a substitute teacher then enter the contest with a group of To preview School of Rock, Wire Magazine grade school kids. The show has so many arcs and journeys. The two sat down with JP Qualters – who plays Theo main characters in the show are as amazingly talented as the kids! They play live every night! On top of playing instruments, they sing and dance in the show. and act – they are the show. 10 WIREMAG.COM #07 2019

MB: How does this role compare with others you have played in your career? JQ: The role I play in the show is Theo, the lead singer of Dewey's band "No Vacancy." It is beyond different for me – I'm not dancing at all, which is unusual for me, and I have to be a macho rocker dude. Recently, I was an angel in Kinky Boots' first national tour, where I not only was dancing and singing but doing it in drag! Hopefully playing Theo shows everyone that I can be a grounded performer and sing a rock song, not just a dancer. MB: What's your favorite part about School of Rock? JQ: The kids! They are the reason I can get through the show if I'm having a bad day or not feeling well. They make the show and keep the adults on their feet. Not only are they incredibly talented and consistent, but they are also growing up in front of our eyes. It is such a cool experience! MB: What would surprise our readers to know about this production? JQ: These kids travel with us full-time, and on weekdays during the days when we aren't performing, they are in school. I am always in awe of them because they can't sleep in as the adults do; they get up, do schoolwork, and have enough time to maybe nap, eat dinner, and then come to work! MB: Why is School of Rock a must-see show? JQ: This show gives it to you in all different ways: you'll see Dewey's journey of defeating the odds and defying others' expectations of him, the school principal come out of her shell, and these talented kids play guitar and drums and the keyboard – just to name a few! And you get to see me shirtless eight shows a week!
