A well-respected West Hollywood gay couple, Billy and Michael operate the online magazine PROXIMA, which covers the nightclub industry in Los Angeles. They run a website and publish a weekly newsletter featuring video interviews with local personalities, promoters, venue owners, and talent, with Proxima becoming a coveted platform for events to advertise.

Secretly, Billy and Michael are Via hybrids who transformed themselves into vampires in 18th-century Paris. Though they were effectively cured of vampirism in the late 20th century, they still function as “creatures of the night.” Friends of the LaCroix family, they orchestrated some of the earliest underground events when the Atlas was still a warehouse in the late 1960s.

Billy is 29 and Jewish, with an Israeli-born mother and a New York–born father. He stands 5 feet 9 inches tall and has a lean, highly defined athletic build with broad shoulders and a sculpted torso. He possesses sharp, symmetrical facial features, including a strong jawline, a well-defined nose, and prominent cheekbones. His expressive, deep-set hazel eyes sit beneath neatly groomed eyebrows, and he typically wears his dark brown hair in a modern styled cut, ranging from a short crop to a textured look.

Michael, 35, is Caucasian with mixed European descent, with a lean, compact frame standing at 5 feet 6 inches. His facial features retain much of their boyish charm, now refined with a more mature edge, characterized by a sharp jawline, expressive blue eyes, and his signature thick, neatly styled brown hair. He consistently presents a classic, clean-cut professional aesthetic.
