If you’ve ever caught performances by Broadway’s Patrick Heusinger, Welsey Taylor or Ben Walker, you know the talented trio of leading men are way more than pretty faces—but lovely mugs don’t hurt when it comes to being tapped for Paper magazine’s 13th annual "Beautiful People" list. Heusinger, Taylor and Walker made the cut, reppin’ the Rialto among a line-up of faces that also includes stage alum-turned-glamrocker Adam Lambert and Glee scene stealers Dianna Agron and Mark Salling.
If the glossy pages of Paper pique your interest, you’re in luck. All three guys are currently appearing in the flesh at major New York theaters: Heusinger, a veteran of Fiddler on the Roof, is moving audiences as an uber-Christian gay man in the new Broadway drama Next Fall; Taylor wrestled out of his Spandex singlet at former Broadway home Rock of Ages and into the new musical The Addams Family as Wednesday Addams' beau; and Walker, who met future wife Mamie Gummer while sexing up Les Liaisons Dangereuses, is rocking the Public as off-Broadway’s only emo president in the edgy rock comedy Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson.
The "Beautiful People" issue of Paper hits newsstands the week of April 5.
