PUBLISHER'S CORNER WE STAND WITH YOU!
I want to express my full support for Dima Logunov, Rene Chalarca and Helmut Muller Estrada, the three victims of the heinous attack and physical assault by four assailants after last year's Miami Beach Gay Pride Parade. I stand with you after learning that these four men were publicly introduced to all attendees at the recent SAVE Champions of Equality Gala by Tony Lima, this LGBTQ non-profit organization's now former executive director, who also stated they were "wrongly accused." Dmitry, Rene and Helmut, you deserve so much better than being sold out and victimized for a second time, and having to relive the nightmare of that horrible day because Tony Lima chose to recognize your attackers at the SAVE Champions of Equality Gala. I stand loud and clear with you, the victims of this attack! SAVE's work is vital for our LGBTQ community and I really appreciate it. When I watched Tony Lima's eight-minute apology video, I was very upset because this should have never happened at SAVE's Champions of Equality Gala, nor prior to a court of law determining these four men's guilt or innocence and what their punishment should be. SAVE must never be in the business of making judgements prior to a ruling on due justice for members of our LGBTQ community who were gay bashed and physically assaulted – as seen on video! The Office of the Florida State Attorney stated about these four men that "We are aggressively pursuing the prosecution of the case. We believe we have sufficient evidence to prove beyond a reasonable doubt the charges against them: Aggravated Battery with Prejudice/Weapon or Bodily Harm, Aggravated Battery, Assault with Prejudice/or on Religious Institution Grounds, and Assault. If that were not the case, the charges would have been dropped in the past."
UPCOMING
SPECIAL ISSUES Real Estate Gay Weddings Travel
With his actions, Tony Lima violated SAVE's mission "to promote, protect and defend equality for people in South Florida who are lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender." So this past Monday, I received the news that "The SAVE board of directors has made the unanimous decision to terminate Tony Lima's employment as executive director of the organization following the events that transpired around this year's Champions of Equality Gala and thereafter." SAVE's board also said, "We deeply apologize for the pain that has been reignited. The community can rest assured that this incident is not reflective of the mission of SAVE." On a completely different note, this week, we bring you our latest installment of Wire Magazine's Hot Models Calendar with some very sexy guys to heat up your summer months. In Out & About, we preview Corteo, Cirque du Soleil's latest production, and in Top Trax we bring you three fresh new releases to stay-in-and-chill during the summer. I wish Dima, Rene and Helmut the best,

CIRQUE DU SOLEIL PRESENTS
orteo, Cirque du Soleil's latest production, heads to the BB&T Center Arena for 16 exciting performances July 24 through August 4, 2019. Corteo is derived from the Italian word cortege, which translates into a festive parade done by a clown. You will experience the theatrical world of fun, comedy, and spontaneity that Cirque du Soleil is known for, this time situated in a mysterious space between heaven and earth. This enchanting show features a theatrical atmosphere never before seen by Cirque audiences with 52 acrobats, musicians, singers and actors from all around the world. Corteo is a celebration of life and has achieved great success by amassing more than 8 million attendees in 19 countries. To purchase tickets and for more information about the show, visit cirquedusoleil.com/ corteo.

CORTEO "CORTEO IS THE BIGGEST TOURING SHOW THAT CIRQUE HAS." - AOIFE CARRY
Wire Magazine sat down with Corteo's Artistic Director Aoife Carry to discuss the theme of the show, and how it diers from other Cirque du Soleil productions. Michael Bustamante: Tell our readers about the story of Corteo. Aoife Carry: Corteo tells the story of a clown, Mauro, dreaming of his funeral. In his dream, we see memories of his life, meet close friends, past loves and see acts from his life in the circus. It is Mauro's story, but it is a celebration of life. MB: How does Corteo dier from previous Cirque productions that our readers may have seen in South Florida? AC: Corteo is the biggest touring show that Cirque has. The show is not presented in the same configuration as other shows currently touring with Cirque. We have a larger than normal cast, because of the style of storytelling that

OUT & ABOUT
is used. Each artist becomes part of the ensemble cast and they take on various roles alongside their main acrobatic act. As with all Cirque shows, we have breathtaking acrobatic performances and an incredible live band. I am completely biased, but Corteo is one of the best circus shows you will see. MB: What do you hope audience members take away from Corteo? AC: I hope that audiences take away smiles. I hope that for the duration of the show, they can be transported into Mauro's world of Corteo and fall in love with the characters they meet, be amazed by the acts that are performed, and leave taking the beauty with them as part of their own life memories. MB: What is your favorite aspect or theme of the show? AC: My favorite theme of the show is the celebration of life. By looking back on his own life, Mauro shares some of his most precious memories and we can relive them with him. Corteo is cloaked in nostalgia and, aesthetically, it is of another time – a time of elegance and beauty, and allows you to lose yourself into his world.
PHOTOS BY LUCAS SAPORITI
MB: What is the key to keeping Cirque productions distinct and new? AC: Cirque understands current markets and trends, and has the ability and opportunities to work with some exciting artists from outside the circus world. Collaborations with other disciplines enrich ideas and stretch the boundaries of how we present circus to modern audiences. Corteo is timeless, and I think this allows for its longevity. It tells a story that transcends popular culture, and reflects on the circus life – something dear to the heart of everyone who works with the circus, and intrigues those who have always thought about 'running away with the circus.'
"CORTEO IS CLOAKED IN NOSTALGIA AND, AESTHETICALLY, IT IS OF ANOTHER TIME – A TIME OF ELEGANCE AND BEAUTY, AND ALLOWS YOU TO LOSE YOURSELF INTO HIS WORLD." - AOIFE CARRY

SUMMER CHILL
By DJ FR8-O
he summer sun isn't the only thing heating up this season. So much new music has been making its way into my playlists lately that I can barely keep up. While it's never a bad idea to sweat away your cares on the dance floor, sometimes a cool dip works just as well. When there's no pool in sight and the beach isn't an option, here are a few fresh new releases to help you stay-in-and-chill.
P!nk - Hurts 2B Human I can't say enough about this woman! For nearly two decades, P!nk has been serving up her own brand of party pop with a side of attitude, and the occasionally twisted sense of humor. She came up alongside the ranks of blonde pop princesses like Britney, Christina and Jessica Simpson, but her sound has always been as unique as her hair. As her fans grew up, so did her music; evolving from R&B to rock to dance, even folk. Lately, the fuschia-flocked female has been using her voice to speak out on more personal and political issues like on "What About Us" from Beautiful Trauma. On her latest set, it seems the 39-year-old mother has a lot on her mind. Amidst stories of love ("Walk Me Home"), confidence ("Hustle") and nostalgia ("Hey Why Miss You Sometimes"), our girl lets her guard down on very personal tracks like "My Attic" and the tear-jerker "Circle Game." Don't expect any pre-club anthems this time around, but more like a post-work chill session with a bottle of wine‌ rosÊ of course.
Jonas Brothers - Happiness Begins It's been about a minute since Nick Jonas set his thirst trap out for the gay boys to throw themselves into, but the wait is finally over! This time, he's brought his equally sexy big brothers along for the ride. The trio once rocked the hearts of tweens everywhere until they decided to take a little break in 2013 to chase their solo careers. Joe started another band (DNCE), Kevin got married and had a reality show, and baby brother Nick got ripped and toured the gay bar circuit promoting his album. Now that the boys are back together, their first group project finds them back in their happy place. The lead single and album summer anthem "Sucker," with its catchy hook and obsessive theme, is an incessant earworm that we can all relate to. The rest of the set meshes Joe's funk style with Nick's R&B vibe into a hybrid that sounds as good as the boys' butt shot on the album cover.

Avicii - Tim For nearly a decade, dance floors across the globe were electrified by the magic spun by Avicii, aka Tim Bergling. All of that ended last year when we lost yet another incredibly gifted artist to depression and suicide. Before his death, Avicii was working on his third album, which had been left unfinished until now. Thanks to a member of his management, the pieces that were left behind were put together, and the light that we all thought was gone forever, can shine one last time. As cliché as it sounds, Avicii's final opus is indeed his best work ever! Featuring collaborations with Aloe Blacc, Imagine Dragons and Chris Martin of Coldplay, Tim seamlessly merges electronica with acoustic elements and emotional vocals in a way that proves Bergling's talents went far beyond the EDM stage. If you still need another reason to buy this album, all the proceeds from Tim will go to the Tim Bergling Foundation to tackle mental health awareness and suicide.

The Matador Room's seasonal menus oer small and large plates using the freshest, locally sourced, seasonal produce its chef can find. Besides its delectable dishes, you will also enjoy the beauty of the Matador Room's stunning sunken oval dining room reminiscence of the glamorous supper clubs of the 1940s and, '50s, with its original chandelier masterfully restored and suspended over the dining room. If you prefer dining al fresco, the large Matador Terrace oers you a lush poolside environment with beachfront views, and a custom-made pergola with colorful climbing bougainvillea and lush tropical greenery.

OR ROOM I visited the Matador Room to enjoy its delightful Taste of Matador dining experience crafted by Executive Chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten and Chef Ilkay Suuctugu. My friend Mario Trejo and I whet our appetites during a beautiful Miami Beach summer evening with a refreshing cocktail called The Pineapple, crafted with 30 Elyx Vodka, Oloroso Sherry, salted caramel syrup, Elemakule bitters, pineapple, lemon and rosemary. Our Taste of Matador experience started with the Spring Pea Guacamole with toasted sunflower seeds and warm crunchy tortillas; Raw Shaved Florida Red Snapper with green chili dressing, crunchy rice and herbs; and Heart of Palm salad with heirloom tomato, young coconut and avocado.

We then enjoyed the Wild Gulf Shrimp with sizzling garlic and chili oil; Maitake Mushrooms with goat cheese and Fresno pepper vinaigrette; Black Trule and Fontina Cheese Pizza; and Arroz Con Pollo with crackling skin and lemon zest. For dessert, the Warm Vanilla Fritters with chocolate pudding and Mexican chocolate; and the Tres Leches Cake with tropical fruit were the perfect sweet finale to a very enjoyable evening dining on delicious food in an elegant setting.
