On Episode 3 of UNDER THE COVERS with Claire Connors, Claire gets cozy with Trent Straube, the former editor-in-chief of the fabulous queer magazine, HX, a NYC club staple for nearly two decades. Trent gives us a peek under HX’s most famous covers—featuring sexy LGBTQ performers and stars like Madonna and Kylie Minogue.  Now the deputy editor of POZ, a magazine that serves the community of folks living with HIV/AIDS, Trent talks about working for these vital publications for most of his 25-year career, and how he landed those hard-to-get celebrities for his covers. You’ll love his insidery story about Beyoncé and how her HX cover story helped smooth over her then-controversial standing with the LGBTQ community. It must’ve worked because today she is a full-fledged gay icon!
