RICKY JARMAN

AT LAST, A CHRISTMAS SONG THAT I AM COMPLETELY AND UNCONDITIONALLY IN LOVE WITH. SO DIFFERENT, SO RELEVANT, SO DANCEABLE AND SO ADDICTING. “CHRISTMAS CHEER,” WRITTEN AND RECORDED BY THE

HANDSOME, YOUNG RICKY JARMAN, CARRIES THE ESSENCE OF THE HOLIDAY SEASON WITH ITS BELLS AND MESSAGE, STILL KEEPING THE SOUND OF TODAY’S MUSIC INTACT. The mix distills rap and conviction, while Ricky’s overwhelmingly seductive and melodic tone sings the chorus with distinct clarity. The track is a collaboration of pop, R&B and rap, and Ricky can really bring it! The song is destined to rise to the top like a shining star on top of the brightest Christmas tree. It’s just one of those cheerful and happy songs, with an equally positive, lyrical illusion. Take some time and listen. I promise, this single contains the power to leave one in a simply fabulous state of mind. As for Ricky Jarman, pay attention: He’s going to become a shining star!

EVERYWHERE“EVERYWHERE,” A BRAND-NEW

SINGLE BY MYNC (MARK BRUNO) AND BRAZILIAN MARIO FISCHETTI FEATURING PLATINUM RECORDING

ARTIST DEBORAH COX, WAS RELEASED ON DECEMBER 1. THE TRACK IS INSTANTLY ENJOYABLE, DANCEABLE AND FUN. UPON HEARING THE SONG I FELT THE DEFINITE NEED TO GET UP AND DANCE, AND WHEN IT ENDED I FELT INCLINED TO LISTEN TO IT AGAIN…AND AGAIN! The upbeat mix is EDM, and with that includes a hint of brass and an incredible bassy beat. The release will consist of remixes by Wasteland, Panda, Electric Youth and Jam Express. The lyrics are basic, simple and drama free: “Don’t turn the music down ‘cause the beat of my heart is too loud.” Cox sings the mix with clarity and conviction. As always, Cox does an amazing job with the vocals. The song will certainly become a quick club favorite as well as a radio top 40 promise with its effervescent attitude.

Your new single is amazing! Thank you, awesome. I’ve kind of had a lot of

pots on different burners, so to get this kind of feedback from this single is really great. I love the Panda mix. I really love the Wasteland mix; it’s more for the EDM crowd. Another one of my favorites is the Tom Stephan mix, and we’ve gotten great other remixes that I think people will enjoy too. I think it was last year you had another single. Are you talking about “Higher,” maybe? Yes. Yeah, it was out last year. Do you have plans in the near future of perhaps combining some of your singles and doing an album? Yeah, well, I’ve thought about that. I’ve talked to my team about that. I think that will be maybe a separate issue or conversation, only because there are so many different versions of songs that tend to be people’s favorites. In Europe there’ll be a certain mix that they’ll want to hear, or if I’m doing a show on the West Coast or here on the East Coast it’s different. So

everyone’s taste is different. We have thought about that, but we haven’t confirmed anything. You also have a bunch of kids? I do; I have my hands quite full. It’s like “The Matrix.” It’s crazy how you’re in one world and life kicks in, and then, you know, with work, trying to be creative—just so many different mindsets that are completely different. And how do you juggle that? You know, I don’t. I just learned the tricks of different worlds all happening at the same time. I know that the world of music and recording and production—I have to put that head on. It’s usually late at night, but then I got to put on the mommy head, and I gotta get up at six in the morning and make sure that the kiddies are off to school. So it’s crazy! It’s…crazy! I get my sleep when I’m on the road. Lots of coffee. So I understand that you are going to do the voice of Whitney Houston for Lifetime’s “I’ll Always Love You,” a biopic of Whitney. Yes. The movie comes January 17, and that was one of those things that I felt was amazing.

I felt like a tribute to her. I got the call from Angela Bassett and Dick Rudolph—he’s the musical supervisor. He mentioned the songs that they were planning on doing, and, you know, I made it happen. I just tried to capture the essence of her that she brought to the music. Well, I think you’re a wonderful choice. That had to be a bit intimidating. A little bit, yeah. I knew that there was going to be a lot of controversy. I knew that there would be a lot of judgment. But I’m not here to be “her”; I’m not trying to replace her. There is only one Whitney Houston, and again, I was telling a story that Angela directed, and my performance was very, very focused on telling the story. What songs did you get to sing? “I Will Always Love You,” “I’m Your Baby Tonight” and “Greatest Love of All.” Were you nervous? I was a little bit, but again, I was just kind of in the mind frame of just making sure the tonality of my voice was as close to the essence of her as possible. So I tried not to let that take over.

DEBORAH COXDEBORAH COX HAS THUS FAR HAD A VERY TALENTED AND DIVERSE CAREER. AS A PLATINUM RECORDING ARTIST, SHE HAS HELD THE RECORD FOR LONGEST SINGLE (R&B) ON BILLBOARD (14 WEEKS IN A ROW), HAS BEEN CAST IN ELTON JOHN’S AIDA ON BROADWAY AND HAS APPEARED IN FILMS AS WELL. WITH HER BRAND-NEW, SUPER PUMPED AND ADDICTIVE SINGLE RELEASED DECEMBER 1, HER CAREER IS ABOUT TO BECOME EVEN HOTTER! COX WAS ALSO SELECTED TO PORTRAY THE VOICE OF WHITNEY HOUSTON IN THE LIFETIME BIOPIC ABOUT WHITNEY, WHICH IS A GREAT HONOR AND TRIBUTE, AIRING ON JANUARY 17.

So you’re originally from Canada. Originally from Toronto, yes. You must love Florida! I love Florida, yes. What or who inspired you as a child? Lots of things: pop music, whatever was popular. Of course Whitney, the Eurythmics. I listened to a lot of soul as well, Aretha Franklin, the pop world. I loved great, great songs and singers with big voices like Gladys Knight, Chaka Khan. It depended on what I was sort of listening to in school at the time, because music was just—you heard different styles on the radio stations. You heard rock, you heard pop, you heard a little bit of up-tempo things. You heard reggae. I’ve always been the type that paid more attention to the song, not what was popular. As you were growing up, did you picture your life to be what it is now? I knew I wanted this career

in music, and I knew that I always saw myself touring and on stage, yeah. I never thought I’d be in Florida though. You have done a lot of things: You’re a recording artist, an actress, you’ve been on Broadway, in films, you’re a mom. Is there anything you haven’t done that you’d still like to achieve?

I’d love to do more films. I love movies, so movie making is something I’d like to get into more of. But I feel very blessed that I’ve been able to do a little bit of everything. I focus on longevity, which means being very selective with some

of the projects that I do and get involved in. So I’ve been very blessed, blessed and lucky with hard work. It all paid off. If your life were a soundtrack, what songs would be on it? OMG, it would be a mash up of “I’m Every Woman” to Rihanna’s “Monster”! That’s what it would be. Do you have a favorite role that you’ve played? Oh, Broadway it would have to

be – that’s tough. I want to say Aida was my favorite. I mean, I loved it. It’s a horrible question, because each project, each part – it’s difficult. But I liked Aida so much because of, well, the story, the music, the way the story was told, and it was my first. So, yeah, I’d have to say Aida. If you could pick two celebrities to be your parents, which two would you choose? Two celebrities to be my parents, wow, that’s a hard question. OK, let me think. Probably Marvin Gaye to be my father, and for my mother, you really stumped me. Maybe Diana Ross. I like that choice. Yeah, because she’s like glamorous, but she’s still very nurturing. … I feel like I wouldn’t have been lost in her career as some celebrity moms can do. I like her as your mom. Now, what do you think about when you’re driving alone in your car? Usually just trying to get to the destination without…I really hate driving when I have a lot of stuff to do. I like to be driven. You go girl! Yeah, I prefer to be driven. I usually have a ton of things on my mind. Like you, I’m juggling and still sorta trying to keep up with everything, making sure I’m on top of the kids’ schedule, my own schedule, managing the home. What are your children’s names? My children’s names are Isaiah, Sumayah and Kaila. Pretty names! Thank you. What would you want your fans to know about you? What don’t they know? That’s always tough, cause I never know what the fans know and what they don’t know. You know what I mean. That I’m a pretty easy going person. I love to have a great time. I love to dance. I’m very light-hearted and funny. I think a lot of the things that people have seen have been on the serious side, I think, maybe, but I’m actually much goofier and much more fun in person, and slightly reserved.

SIR HONEY DAVENPORT

How did you get started doing drag? I toured the world, literally, with Peppermint. I travel to London, Dublin, Germany and Australia. I was a backup

dancer for Peppermint for four years. Then one day we were going to London, and I wanted some extra spending money, and I was like, “You know what, why don’t I put on a little sort of drag show with my brother? What if I put on a little drag show for a little extra spending money?” It wasn’t necessarily drag at the time, it was more like interactive dancing.

THE WINNER OF THIS YEAR’S MISS’D AMERICA IN ATLANTIC CITY, HOST OF THE GET

OUT! AWARDS AND ONE OF THE MOST HARD-WORKING QUEENS IN NEW YORK, SIR HONEY DAVENPORT IS RADIATING WITH OVERWHELMING TALENT. SHE’S A DJ, SHE PERFORMS WITH HER OWN VOICE, SHE HAS A BAND CALLED ELECTROHONEY AND SHE IS BEAUTIFUL AS WELL. I WAS FORTUNATE TO CATCH MS. DAVENPORT (WHICH WASN’T EASY WITH HER EXTREME SCHEDULE) AND HAVE A VERY ENTERTAINING CONVERSATION WITH HER.PHOTO BY

SIR HONEY DAVENPORT

Do you sing with your own voice? I do, I do. Actually, I have my own band, and we’re called Electrohoney, and my album is available. And you’ve just won the Miss’d America Pageant. Yeah, I did. Tell me about that. It’s a competition. This is my second year doing it, and it’s held in Atlantic City. It’s a really big deal: It pulls queens from all over the country. This year I spent my whole entire year working really, really hard to make sure my whole package was together and that I was really ready to go and turn it out, and I’m very happy, and I nearly almost passed out. It was just such a surprise, and all my effort paid off. I thought you should have won The Big Apple Pageant. Oh, thank you. I wish I did. Did you ever enter the Miss Fire Island Pageant? Last year was my very first time trying out for Miss Fire Island, and I got first runner up. Sweet! You did an amazing job at The Get Out! Awards too, and you’re going to host Get Out!’s Holiday Party along with Ariel Sinclair. Yeah, I’m excited about it. Every time I get the opportunity to host a show with Get Out!, it’s pretty awesome, because I’ve written for the magazine and I’ve worked with the magazine for the last couple of years. Any time Mike Todd is like, “Do this for me,” I’m like, “Whatever you need!” He’s been like a really big supporter of me, and the magazine has been a really big supporter of me, helping me get the word out about new gigs I’m starting. I’m always excited to get to work with Get Out! Where exactly do you work right now and when? I work right now Monday 6 to 8 at Boots and Saddle for the happy hour show called You Mad Mondays, and one Monday a month I DJ at The Cock. One Tuesday a month I DJ at Westgate. You DJ too? Yeah, I do. Wednesday I do the party called Hamilton Lodge at Buddha Bar, which is a straight bar uptown. Thursdays I do the Spunk party at The Monster. Fridays I DJ at Boots and Saddle. Saturdays I do a Dirty

Ho show at Boots and Saddle and Manster at The Monster. Then Sundays I do a new brunch called Sundays Are a Drag at Shadowboxers. So I have one Tuesday and one Wednesday a month off. No wonder you have little time left for interviews—you’re a busy queen! How long have you been doing drag anyway? I’ve been doing drag almost 6 years now. That’s all? Yeah, that’s it. Wow, I’m impressed. It’s been a wild ride, because after I had so much help from Peppermint in the beginning, and then I also had a lot of help from my drag mother, Deja Davenport. I had a whole lot of support from my drag mother. She really like got me together and gave me all the things I need. It’s been a really big, very fun ride. Did you say your brother does drag too? Not too much anymore. Occasionally he’ll put on a wig. We started out together, but then he decided it wasn’t for him. Actually, we were a group when we first started. We were called The Hunties. It’s kind of like where my name comes from, because I went to a book signing for RuPaul, and I asked him to sign the book “To the Hunties,” and she signed it, “To Honey.” Then like the next day my brother was like, “I don’t wanna do The Hunties. I want to focus on my musical career. I got a booking from a club, and they asked to book The Hunties, and I was like, “I guess it’s just one of us now!” I was looking at the book from RuPaul, and I was like, “I guess it’s just Honey!” That’s how it all came about. I love it! Do you have anything special coming up? I would say that my brunch parties, Sundays Are a Drag, is the thing that I’m putting the most energy into right now. It’s phenomenal; I’ve got a wonderful cast of girls. The girls all serve and perform. Sunday was our first brunch, and it was just a fabulous, fabulous, wonderful time. I think the concept of what’s going on is a little different than what’s going on at Lips. Either way, the variety of girls is completely different. The setup of the show is different; the menu is just out of this world. So I think it’s the party that I’m most excited about

happening right now. So Honey, if you could pick two celebrities to be your parents, who would they be? I would pick Oprah Winfrey and Michael Jackson. Love it! Now, you’re in a store and you’re naked. You’re holding a sign up, but the sign can only say one word. What’s the word? Sale. You’re a new addition to a crayon box. What color are you? Black-ish. Who would you pick to go on a date with to outer space? It would have to be my husband. I love him so much. You know, it never even dawned on me when asking that question that you had a husband. I like that. We’ve been married two years in December, and we’ve been together four. He’s the apple of my eye. What’s his name? John. He doesn’t mind that you do drag? Oh no, he doesn’t. He’s very supportive. It pays our bills. If you could perform anywhere in the world - where would it be? The Life Ball; that’s a dream gig of mine. It’s in Austria every year. Where do you see yourself in 10 years? I don’t necessarily have a set plan where I definitely want my career to go, but as long as I’m creating…also, it’s an amazing art. I’m really happy and fulfilled, so, if I could be doing drag for the next 10 years, then I’m happy. How is your life different than you thought it might be when you were a child? Oh, it’s completely different! I never thought I’d wear wigs for a living. I never thought I’d wear wigs, period! But it’s completely different and awesome. Like I said, I have a husband that loves me and a career that’s just blossoming and beautiful. I didn’t expect either of them to be the case. sirhoneydavenport.com
