Meet Marco Da Silva

Who said that go-go dancing was a dead-end career move? Sure, the usual trajectory usually takes your typical lycra-clad hottie from riding in Pride floats to riding other things, but there are exceptions—like Marco Da Silva, an impressively tatted Portuguese-German muscle boy who once "danced in the hottest clubs" in Germany, Holland and Belgium. Today, he is living every circuit boy's dream, earning his keep as an underwear model and as Kylie Minogue's favorite back-up dancer. (He also recorded a cover of Richie Valens' "La Bamba", which we're told "charted number one in Russia.") Cruise by Marco's impressively designed website for the obligatory pics of him dancing with the gay icon, as well as a number of color and b&w shots of him bulging in his skivvies; his MySpace page features sleazier photos and a nice NC-17 home video or two. And for even more examples of Marco's quest for world domination, pick up a copy of the current Gay Times, where you'll see Marco in all his coverboy glory ... and see why we think he's one to keep watching.-RM
