Hollywood, FL. – Multimedia star Jade Esteban Estrada hosted the 19th Annual South Florida GLAAD Media Awards on Saturday, April 12, 2008 at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida.
GLAAD, the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, handed out awards to the Spanish-language media for fair depictions of the LGBT community in television, film and music.

The former Charo choreographer and scratch vocalist for the Back Street Boys has been known for his highly acclaimed solo theatre shows including “Tortilla Heaven” and “ICONS.” Estrada recently opened his tenth solo show “Chek It, Baby: A Fabulous Explanation of Anton Chekhov’s Fiercest Plays” at the Twin Cities Chekhov Festival in Minneapolis.
