Former Zanna, Don't! star Jai Rodriguez, who has achieved national fame as the cultural connoisseur on TV's "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy," will perform a benefit concert for the Actors' Fund of America next month.

On Jan. 31, 2005, Jai Rodriguez: Xposed will be presented at Jazz at Lincoln Center's Frederick P. Rose Hall. The 8 PM evening will be directed by Christopher Gattelli.

The actor's other theatre credits include the Broadway company of Rent and Off Broadway's Spinning Into Butter. His screen credits number "The New Guy" and "All My Children," and his first single is titled "Love Is Good."
