UPDATED /// EAT YOUR HEART OUT MIDWEST-HOMOS – This is what New York is like every day. Part burlesque, part Broadway razzle dazzle the annual Broadway Bares extravaganza event took over Roseland Ballroom on Sunday Night in Manhattan. This year the event raised a record-smashing $874,372 to benefit Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. What started as a charity strip-a-thon in 1991 has become one of the sexiest charity events in the country. To date, Broadway Bares has raised nearly $5 million for BC/EFA. Our boy, Broadway Bares performer Ben Ryan graciously shared his personal photo album.

THANK YOU BEN!!
