Is it an app that helps us increase our butch factor? Is it an app that helps bears awaken their inner pretty queen? It's hard to grasp what, exactly, famed photog and A List: New York star Mike Ruiz's Pretty Masculine app does, but if it at least provides more footage of the men behind the book that inspired the whole thing, then we'll gladly make our way to the App Store. 

The sexy promo video for the new app follows.

Former A List: New York-er and celebrity photographer Mike Ruiz wants to keep his reality-star status shining bright, so he's picked up a discounted Kim Zolciak-label wig from Big Lots, painted on eye-shade from Willow Smith for M-A-C, and lip-syncs for his life to Mariah in a just-released audition tape for season 4 of RuPaul's Drag Race. The hysterical audition tape, after the jump.

Hallelujah for former Instinct cover guy Mike Ruiz and his, err, charity. He has created a gorgeous new book called Pretty Masculine, displaying half naked beefcakes all dolled up! Think Equinox meets Gold's. Details, video promo and more shots after the jump.

More shots have leaked from Lance Bass's glam Mike Ruiz photoshoot. What do you think of the latest images?

Adam Lambert's eyeliner has smeared off and landed on another pop-culture queer. This time it's Lance Bass going semi-glam for famed photog Mike Ruiz (another past Instinct coverguy!).

What do you think of this look for Lance?

Famed fairy photog Mike Ruiz provided us with an unique twist swish on the typical Instinct fashion spread in July 2007, titled "True Brawn."

In fact, the spread, featuring three buff boys photographed by Ruiz in scandalous clothing and then given the decadent Tom of Finland treatment, was so mouth watering it took us a month to find a dry, intact copy!

And yes, if you're not too distracted by the super-sized serving of brawn, you may notice that one of the models happens to be Jesse Godderz, reality TV celebrity and the reason a lot of us gays started tuning in regularly to Big Brother.

Which "True Brawn" beefcake is your fave, Instincters?

Jesse

Matus

Dror

And all three...

It’s been a long year since RuPaul’s Drag Race crowned its first winner, but thankfully the wait is almost over for more bitchery! Season 2 of the Logo hit kicks off February 1, and now we know who will be sitting beside Ru to help separate the ladies from the ladies each week.

A drag queen in her own right, Kathy Griffin will be sitting in as a guest judge this season, as will Jackie Collins, Teri Nunn from Berlin, Kathy Najimi, Cloris Leachman, Debbie Reynolds, Tatum O’Neal, Henry Rollins, Marissa Jaret Winokur, Dita Von Teese, Niecy Nash, Martha Wash, Lisa Rinna, Alec Mapa, photographer and former Instinct coverboy Mike Ruiz and more.

Quite the eclectic mix, if we do say so ourselves.
