What are you wearing as you read these questions?
As little as possible! Spring is almost in the air and I can feel it. My work week starts back tomorrow and being in a stuffy uniform all week drives me nuts! My lazy weekends usually result in lounging around in my undies and a tee until I deem it time to get dressed (which is mid-to-late afternoon).

Chris from Hunk du Jour: Who are some of your favourite designers to wear? What is it about their clothes that draw you to them?

Mark Munroe: On a personal note, Michael Vollbracht for Bill Blass, I had the chance to see his show and interview him last year in Miami, great guy, great clothes! Roberto Cavalli, Domenico Vacca are two of my favourites, their cloths are clean, classic and sexy as hell. There is a cashmere jacket that DV makes in light blue with yellow pin strips, just an amazing feel and look, Just got to love it!

HDJ: How would you describe your personal style?

MM: Classic, Clean and Comfortable. I like solid colours, blue, grey, black, brown. I like clothes that look sharp but aren't flashy, and the clothes have to be comfortable, you need to feel good in what you're wearing.

After the jump is our exclusive interview with upcoming DNA Covermodel Calisto. After pitching the idea while on a gig at New York Pride last year, Calisto heard that they liked the idea (and the photo spread shot by Chris Hager) and that he landed the cover!

We initially heard about Calisto after one of our readers, Walter, talked to him at a meet-and-greet at a local bar. Walter was so impressed with how sweet and friendly Calisto was he sent us a note suggesting a feature... and who were we to argue?

After the jump we chat about making it into DNA, the five photographers we should be paying more attention to, and how growing up as a nerdy kid in North Carolina helped him realize he wanted to help troubled teens.

You were "outed" at a very young age at school and at home. How bad was it at school for you?
School was relatively easy. After the initial gossip and social stigma which is in most cases a staple of Middle School in any case things calmed down. I was a pretty much a nerd until I came out in 8th grade. Once I did come out and the initial surprise was over, I became something of a novelty among many of the girls and all wanted a gay best friend. So I made a lot of friends, and since the boys wanted to talk to the girls they acted cool with me in order to not anger any girls. It was an interesting social structure. I did have to deal with the occasional homophobic student which was physical or extremely vocal about his disapproval of the LGBT identity. I think dealing with these forms of marginalization and stigma, especially from the school administration, allowed me to grow up and mature a lot faster than most. This also gave me a lot more confidence in my abilities and once I reached high school I pursued several different interests in academia, extra curricular activities, community service, student government, and even competitive sports.

Ivri Lider, Musician

Ivri Lider is a superstar in his native country Israel, but that could all change in 2008 as he launches both a new Hebrew and English album. The video for his English song Jesse has gotten a lot of airtime on LOGO TV here in the states, and Out Magazine recognized him as a member of the "Out 100" for 2007.

We got the chance to pop a few questions to Ivri, who just started working full time on the two albums while at the same time producing for fellow Israeli superstar Rita. He has some interesting things to say about his life and his work -- check out our entire interview after the jump!

Ivri Lider, Musician

Hunk du Jour: In 2006 you toured in the United States for the first time -- what kind of reception did you get from US fans?

Ivri Lider: We had a great time touring the States last year. The fans were great, very supportive, and their energy was amazing. It was really a wonderful experience for my band and me. Traveling to a different city everyday isn't something you get to do in Israel because it's such a small country, so that was definitely one of the highlights of the trip.

HdJ: Did you have a favorite stop on your tour? Somewhere that you are anxious to return to?

IL: Of course the show at the Avalon Club in New York City was really amazing for us because so many people came out to the event. But also I can remember the show Ann Arbor, Michigan at the Bling Pig Club with pictures of Nirvana on the wall in a dingy little rock club packed with a young, enthusiastic crowd. I'd actually really love to go back to both of those places sometime in the near future.

What is it about scarfs that you love so much?
Nothing adds a touch of style to a plain outfit like a nice scarf - any time of the year!
