Karamba's Adriana Galliano was pretty in pink and wowed the crowd with partner John Holzworth.

Dancing With the Stars is okay and all, but drag queens and more hot men would make it so much better. The 8th annual Dancing With the Bars competition on Sunday, August 9, had plenty of both, as bartenders, small business owners, and entertainers from LGBTQ-friendly establishments around the valley competed for the glory at Tempe Center for the Arts. Better yet, it was all for a good cause— the dancers pooled together their resources to raise $15,000 for Aunt Rita's Foundation, a charity that supports Arizona's HIV and AIDs organizations.
