What is TRUVADA for PrEP (Pre-exposure Prophylaxis)?
TRUVADA is a prescription medicine that can be used for PrEP
to help reduce the risk of getting HIV-1 infection when used
together with safer sex practices. This use is only for adults
who are at high risk of getting HIV-1 through sex. This includes
HIV-negative men who have sex with men and who are at high
risk of getting infected with HIV-1 through sex, and male-female
sex partners when one partner has HIV-1 infection and the other
does not.
Ask your healthcare provider if you have questions about how to
prevent getting HIV-1. Always practice safer sex and use
condoms to lower the chance of sexual contact with body fluids.
Never reuse or share needles or other items that have body fluids
on them.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
What is the most important information I should know
about TRUVADA for PrEP?
Before taking TRUVADA for PrEP to reduce your risk of getting
HIV-1 infection:
u You must be HIV-negative. You must get tested to make
sure that you do not already have HIV-1 infection. Do not take
TRUVADA for PrEP to reduce the risk of getting HIV-1 unless
you are confirmed to be HIV-negative.
u Many HIV-1 tests can miss HIV-1 infection in a person who
has recently become infected. If you have flu-like symptoms,
you could have recently become infected with HIV-1. Tell your
healthcare provider if you had a flu-like illness within the last
month before starting TRUVADA for PrEP or at any time while
taking TRUVADA for PrEP. Symptoms of new HIV-1 infection
include tiredness, fever, joint or muscle aches, headache, sore
throat, vomiting, diarrhea, rash, night sweats, and/or enlarged
lymph nodes in the neck or groin.
While taking TRUVADA for PrEP to reduce your risk of getting
HIV-1 infection:
u You must continue using safer sex practices. Just taking
TRUVADA for PrEP may not keep you from getting HIV-1.
u You must stay HIV-negative to keep taking TRUVADA
for PrEP.
u To further help reduce your risk of getting HIV-1:
• Know your HIV-1 status and the HIV-1 status of your partners.
• Get tested for HIV-1 at least every 3 months or when your
healthcare provider tells you.
• Get tested for other sexually transmitted infections. Other
infections make it easier for HIV-1 to infect you.
• Get information and support to help reduce risky
sexual behavior.
• Have fewer sex partners.
• Do not miss any doses of TRUVADA. Missing doses may
increase your risk of getting HIV-1 infection.
• If you think you were exposed to HIV-1, tell your healthcare
provider right away.
u If you do become HIV-1 positive, you need more medicine
than TRUVADA alone to treat HIV-1. TRUVADA by itself is not
a complete treatment for HIV-1. If you have HIV-1 and take
only TRUVADA, your HIV-1 may become harder to treat over time.
TRUVADA can cause serious side effects:
u Too much lactic acid in your blood (lactic acidosis),
which is a serious medical emergency. Symptoms of lactic
acidosis include weakness or being more tired than usual,
unusual muscle pain, being short of breath or fast breathing,
nausea, vomiting, stomach-area pain, cold or blue hands
and feet, feeling dizzy or lightheaded, and/or fast or
abnormal heartbeats.
u Serious liver problems. Your liver may become large and
tender, and you may develop fat in your liver. Symptoms of
liver problems include your skin or the white part of your eyes
turns yellow, dark “tea-colored” urine, light-colored stools,
loss of appetite for several days or longer, nausea, and/or
stomach-area pain.
u You may be more likely to get lactic acidosis or serious liver
problems if you are female, very overweight (obese), or have
been taking TRUVADA for a long time. In some cases, these
serious conditions have led to death. Call your healthcare provider
right away if you have any symptoms of these conditions.
u Worsening of hepatitis B (HBV) infection. If you also
have HBV and take TRUVADA, your hepatitis may
become worse if you stop taking TRUVADA. Do not
stop taking TRUVADA without first talking to your
healthcare provider. If your healthcare provider
tells you to stop taking TRUVADA, they will need to
watch you closely for several months to monitor your
health. TRUVADA is not approved for the treatment
of HBV.
Who should not take TRUVADA for PrEP?
Do not take TRUVADA for PrEP if you already have HIV-1
infection or if you do not know your HIV-1 status. If you are
HIV-1 positive, you need to take other medicines with TRUVADA
to treat HIV-1. TRUVADA by itself is not a complete treatment
for HIV-1. If you have HIV-1 and take only TRUVADA, your HIV-1
may become harder to treat over time.
Do not take TRUVADA for PrEP if you also take lamivudine
(Epivir-HBV) or adefovir (HEPSERA).
What are the other possible side effects of TRUVADA for PrEP?
Serious side effects of TRUVADA may also include:
u Kidney problems, including kidney failure. Your healthcare
provider may do blood tests to check your kidneys before
and during treatment with TRUVADA for PrEP. If you develop
kidney problems, your healthcare provider may tell you to stop
taking TRUVADA for PrEP.
u Bone problems, including bone pain or bones getting soft or
thin, may lead to fractures. Your healthcare provider may do
tests to check your bones.
u Changes in body fat, which can happen in people taking
TRUVADA or medicines like TRUVADA.
Common side effects in people taking TRUVADA for PrEP are
stomach-area (abdomen) pain, headache, and decreased weight.
Tell your healthcare provider if you have any side effects that
bother you or do not go away.
What should I tell my healthcare provider before taking
TRUVADA for PrEP?
u All your health problems. Be sure to tell your healthcare
provider if you have or have had any kidney, bone, or liver
problems, including hepatitis virus infection.
Please see Important Facts about TRUVADA for PrEP including important warnings on the following pages.

u If you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. It is not
known if TRUVADA can harm your unborn baby. If you
become pregnant while taking TRUVADA for PrEP, talk to
your healthcare provider to decide if you should keep taking
TRUVADA for PrEP.
Pregnancy Registry: A pregnancy registry collects information
about your health and the health of your baby. There is a
pregnancy registry for women who take medicines to prevent
HIV-1 during pregnancy. For more information about the
registry and how it works, talk to your healthcare provider.
u If you are breastfeeding (nursing) or plan to breastfeed. Do
not breastfeed. The medicines in TRUVADA can pass to your
baby in breast milk. If you become HIV-1 positive, HIV-1 can be
passed to the baby in breast milk.
u All the medicines you take, including prescription and overthe-counter
medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements.
TRUVADA may interact with other medicines. Keep a list of all
your medicines and show it to your healthcare provider and
pharmacist when you get a new medicine.
u If you take certain other medicines with TRUVADA for PrEP,
your healthcare provider may need to check you more often
or change your dose. These medicines include ledipasvir with
sofosbuvir (HARVONI).
You are encouraged to report negative side effects of
prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit www.FDA.gov/medwatch,
or call 1-800-FDA-1088.

the risk of getting HIV-1 when used with safer sex practices.

Ask your doctor about your risk of getting HIV-1 infection and if
TRUVADA for PrEP may be right for you.

DAN TOBEY & LUIS GOMEZ
BY EILEEN SHAPIRO
CELEBRITY CORRESPONDENT
The masterminds behind one of the most successful parties in New York City are
celebrating the fact that you can now enjoy “the boys of Spunk” seven nights a
week. Both partners in business and in life, Dan and Luis have expanded their
evenings, rotated their DJs, their queens and their boys and are prepared to give
all who desire a great experience.
In the midst of their busy schedule, Get Out! spoke with the two once again, and
as usual found them fun, entertaining and extra enthusiastic!
What plans do you have
for 2017?
We’re excited about
2017 as we kick off our
fifth year of parties in
Manhattan, and we’re
looking forward to doing
some very exciting
new things. We will be
expanding our line up
of DJs and introducing
more themed nights,
like our recent Latin
Night with DJ Eddie
Cruz. We’re also looking
forward to another
summer on Fire Island,
and of course recruiting
the hottest men in the
country to dance at our
weekly events.
What DJs fill your roster
for the week?
We book DJs Thursday
through Sunday, and
our rotations include DJ
Jonny Mack, DJ David
Michael, DJ Xavier
Mazara, DJ Xavier Auza,
DJ Brian Richards, DJ
Eddie Cruz, DJ June
Rodriguez and our
newest addition, DJ
Chelsea.
Give us an inside peek
at what happens at each
venue.
SPUNK @ Monster
Thursday night at The
Monster is still our
biggest SPUNK event
of the week. Our main
stage has a constant
flow of nearly 40 dancers
working the crowd into
a frenzy both on and off
the pole.
Honey Davenport keeps
it all going with her
signature combination
of class and raunch.
Each night at 2 a.m. we
feature the “Best Asset”
contest where five or six
dancers do their best to
impress the crowd while
wearing sexy underwear
from our sponsor PURE
SEDUCTION. The winner
takes home extra cash
and often becomes
the hottest ticket for
the lap dance rooms
shortly after. This party
goes strong until 4 a.m.,
and we’ve seen steady
growth in the number of
customers each week. In
2016 we expanded our
lap dance area just to
keep up with demand.

Sundays @ Pieces
Sunday night Holly Dae
puts her spin on SPUNK
with our show at Pieces
Bar in the West Village.
There’s never a dull
moment as she jokes her
way through the night
while parading hunky
men on stage. Pieces has
both table service while
watching the guys, or you
can pony up to the bar
and squeeze past all the
hot men in underwear.
Sunday nights are a kick
with the party starting at
10 and ending when the
crowd realizes around 2
a.m. that they probably
need to be alert for
Monday morning at the
office.
Every night at Fairytales
Fairytail Lounge features the men of SPUNK and
ADONIS seven days a week. Of course Friday and
Saturday nights are the busiest, but during the
week customers can be the center of attention
with 15-20 dancers to choose from. Friday night
features DJ Chelsea, and Saturday our girl Holly
Dae is hosting Holly’s Fantasy with about 35
dancers.
Ever thought of doing happy hour events for
those wanting a little excitement after a day at
the office?
Happy hour stripper parties are a tough sell. We
have tried to build up week nights at Fairytail
Lounge, but there are a few obstacles that always
get in the way. Apparently it is essential for
dancers to go to the gym to get these amazing
bodies, and believe it or not many of our dancers
have day jobs. In our experience, stripping
tends to be a late-night event, but if that trend
changes you can bet we’ll find a way to bring it to
Manhattan.

Honey Davenport
Drag queen, DJ, recording artist, go-go boy
and pageant slayer Honey Davenport does it all!
What got you started
as a drag queen?
I used to dance backup
for Peppermint and
Sherry Vine. Then Sahara
moved right across the
street and introduced
me to Deja Davenport.
I was completely blown
away. Sahara and Deja
helped me sculpt the
drag persona that had
been burning inside me.
I had always had a desire
to perform with my full
potential fabulousness,
but it wasn’t until I was
surrounded by so many
great queens doing it so
well that I gave myself the
permission to light my
own little flame. Now it’s a
bonfire.
What is the most
embarrassing thing
you’ve done as a queen?
I once got so drunk that
I couldn’t find my shoes
after a show. Almost had
to go home barefoot.
Thank God Mitch Ferrino
helped me get a cab. I
really love getting lit, but
I try to not get that turnt
anymore. That’s my motto
now: “Lit, Not Turnt.”
Who are your musical
inspirations?
Beyoncé, Beyoncé and
Beyoncé. For true. But
seriously, I have been
inspired by many
musicians. My new singles
are particularly informed
by Robyn, Janet and Kelis.
Who is your favorite
queen in NYC?
That’s a hard one,
but I have to choose
my daughter Kareem
McJagger. He/she is
so talented, and I keep
getting newly surprised
and delighted by
whatever crazy aspect s/
he’s just brilliantly added
to his drag. I am also a
huge fan of Brita Filter.
She is a force to be
reckoned with. Tammy
Spenks is always a kiki.
She literally has zero fucks
to give, and that’s my kind
of girl.

As a pageant queen you
have held many titles.
Which do you currently
hold?
More than I can name
while hungover. (So much
for not being turnt.) But
I am super excited to be
Miss Fire Island 2016. That
place is magical. I do a
party called Spunk there,
and I have my very own
show. I even snagged Fire
Island Go-Go Boy of the
Year. Expect to see me out
there a lot this summer,
always turning the party.
You DJ and you go-go. Is
there anything you don’t
do? Meth.
Is it hard to be a go-go
boy and a drag queen?
Not at all. Drag queens
are boys. I happen to
be a sexy one under this
makeup, with a hot ass.
I always like to shake it,
whether or not I’m in
a lace front and heels.
Sometimes you feel like
a tuck, sometimes you
don’t. If you want to catch
me with it all hanging
out, check the Cock or
Ice Palace (on Fire Island),
which are my regular gogo
gigs!
What’s your favorite
party in New York?
Why must you make
me choose?! I will start
with “Party of the Year”
Manster at the Monster.
But you know I love
boys, so it’s a tie with
Luis Gomez Presents:
Spunk, [and] I also love
Gay College Tuesdays at
the Ritz. What can I say?
Apparently my favorite
parties are the ones I work.
So you’re working on
new music? When can
we expect some new
tracks from you?
Tyler Stone and I have
teamed up again. He
produced the original
version of my track
“Indestructible.” This time,
I feel like I am being 100%
true to myself as an artist. I
won’t rush it, or try to use it
to accomplish some other
thing. I just want to create
something truly excellent.
Making good music takes
time. But sit tight! Early
2017 I will be dropping
some sick new beats.
I loved your video
for your last single,
“Trouble.” Are you
planning any more fun
and exciting videos?
Yeah! My next single,
out this spring, is called
“Push It to the Middle.” I
am shooting an awesome
video with a dope concept
directed by my good
friend James Barker (DJ
Chaotic). He was the DJ
for my first-ever drag show,
and we have been dying to
do a video together.
What artist would you
like to collaborate with in
the future?
Sean Paul, RuPaul and Paul
McCartney. I just think that
would be an epic collab. I
am excited to work on my
first collaboration in a long
time with up-and-coming
pop singer Jayse Vegas.
We got some cookies in
the oven right now that are
gonna be fire!
What advice would you
like to give to future
generations of upcoming
drag queens and
recording artists?
Have fun. Be yourself.
Changing to fit other
people’s molds never leads
to true artistic bliss, and,
even worse, rarely leads to
success with any longevity.
And never touch meth. It’s
gross.

The Perfect Gift
PART THREE
BY IAN-MICHAEL BERGERON
@ianmichaelinwonderland
After a brief hiatus of
not communicating, The
Ex Fiancé and I started
talking again.
Well, texting, anyway.
I told him all about Q,
who I’d been dating
just over two months.
He told me about a
boy he’d briefly been
involved with, but it only
ended up lasting a week
or two.
It was nice, getting
to catch up. We were
friends again, I told
myself. It was OK that
I was talking to him.
Still, I didn’t tell Q. No
need to freak him out
unnecessarily.
He sensed it, all the
same. Sensed that
something is up. We
spent less time together
the week after I slept
alone, and I was far
away, distant. I was
thinking about The Ex
Fiancé.
I needed some time to
think. I planned a trip
back to Iowa for my
birthday, mid-February,
to visit my family. I
hadn’t been back since
moving to the city. I
thought it would be nice
for me to get back to
my roots for a week or
so, to clear my head.
A few days before, after
dinner, I told Q I wanted
to go back to my
apartment alone: that I
had writing to catch up
on. But I’d already used
that line on him, and
he wasn’t going to be
fooled twice.
“What’s going on?” he
asked.
“Nothing’s going on.
I need to finish some
writing before going to
Iowa.”
“We only have a few
days together before
you’re gone for a week,
and you don’t want to
spend them with me.”
“We just spent all day
together.”
Q went into panic
mode. “Are you
breaking up with me?”
“I…” I couldn’t lie to
him. “I don’t know. I
need some time to
figure myself out. I need
some time to think.”
“You know what I think?
I think you’re not over
your ex fiancé.”
My heart stopped.
“That’s ridiculous.”
“You still bring him
up all the time. Like a
poison that’s still in your
system.”
“I…don’t know what to
say.”
“So that’s it. We’re
breaking up.”
We stood there a while,
in silence. And, in
silence, I finally left.
In one of my favorite
songs by The
Carpenters, “Rainy Days
and Mondays,” Karen
sings, “Funny, but it
seems I always wind up
here with you—nice to
know somebody loves
me.”
And so I did: I asked
The Ex Fiancé if I
could stay over at his
apartment in Astoria the
night before my trip,
since it was so much
closer to La Guardia.
When he opened his
door, I said “I left Q,”
and he kissed me. And I
kissed him back.
