These DJs Are As Hot As Their Music

Everyone agrees that beat mixing and music layering is a craft, and that choosing the right songs in progression to take an audience on a journey is an art. But DJing is also part show business; he (or she) is playing to a crowd, and the object is entertainment. As the celebrity culture moves into the sound booth, DJs are becoming as famous as actors and models - and some of them are just as good looking. Models often like to take turns at the turntables; Madonna's former boy friend, Brazilian model Jesus Luz, was able to charge $84,000 for a gig. But the Circuit has its own set of hotties. A few former models have turned themselves into club musicians, such as Hector Fonseca and even a porn star, Carlos Morales. None of the men on these pages started out as models - but their good looks and buff bodies make them standouts.

Brett Henrichsen

Brett worked at IBM when he decided to found a record company to turn out the kind of music he wasn't hearing on the dance floor. In between running Masterbeat, the Hollywood native headlines parties all over the world but still finds time to hit the gym.

DJ Pornstar

You would expect a DJ named Pornstar to be hot. And he is. Originally from San Francisco, DJ Pornstar now regularly works the clubs of his West Hollywood base and is planning to launch his own record label.

Seth Cooper

Austin's hottest gay DJ just can't seem to keep his shirt on - and his fans couldn't be happier. If you're not in Texas, where he's become a fix- ture in clubs throughout the vast Lone Star State, you can hear him on Gay Internet Radio Live.

Micky Friedmann

This Israeli native based in Berlin honed his body in Israel's military and then classical dance. He had risen to soloist with the Berlin Ballet when Junior Vasquez spotted him on the dance floor and made him a go-go dancer. He put down his toe shoes and took up turntables, and now the rest of America is discovering what so fascinated Junior.

DrewG

With a rock musician dad and a mom who frequented Studio 54 and Paradise Garage, it was probably inevitable that this New Yorker would turn to turntables. By age 18, he had produced 18 albums and just keeps on going. Mentored by the legendary Shep Pettibone, he has remixed for all the one-named dance divas in between DJ gigs all over the city and beyond.
