Mrach, 2012 issue |
If someone told me a year ago that I would be on the cover of a magazine I would have rolled my eyes and laughed. When I got a phone call from the magazine, I was not laughing at all. . . I was shocked and excited!
When I was presented with this incredible opportunity I was floored.
The magazine is called Nueva Imagen (New Image) which is a magazine in Spanish geared towards the Latino community in the Twin Cities. The General Manager of the magazine and LEGACY have worked on other projects in the past. We headlined shows for their show called “Domingo Espectacular” in 2011 and we'll also be headlining their March event. I never thought we'd be offered the cover of the magazine!
Photo Spread & Interview |
Eduardo De La Riva who is the head and General Manager of the magazine was explaining to me that he’s trying to change the direction in which the magazine is going. In previous issues, beautiful, sexy women have graced the covers of this magazine and he wants to broaden the magazine’s appeal. I’ll be one of the few males who have been on their cover and that’s such an honor. In the magazine, there is a photo spread as well as an interview which talks about LEGACY, the show, the cast and my experiences as MJ. The issue will be in predominating Spanish speaking shops, grocery stores and other local businesses.
Alternate Cover |
I’m very proud of this accomplishment and very thankful to Nueva Imagen and Xavier Tavera who shot the photo for the cover as well as the 2012 marketing shoot for LEGACY. Although the entire cast is not on the actual cover, I feel I represent LEGACY and the hard work that my entire team does for this show. I’m very proud of what LEGACY is becoming. Always expect the unexpected as we will keep surprising and pushing to achieve greatness.
