Singer, songwriter, actor, athlete, feminist, and fox. Is there anything Will Young isn’t? Certainly he’s not shy about shedding his threads onscreen or competing on TV. Back at the turn of the millennium, the aspiring songbird become a contestant on Pop Idol (2002). With a face like his and lungs to boot, Will won the show as well as our hearts (and hard-ons). At the risk of repeating himself, the youthful Young was named Artist of the Year in 2003 and 2004 at the BT Digital Music Awards. Other accolades include Best Bod, Sexiest Star, Best Dressed, Best Hair, and Rear of the Year 2005. If that’s not impressive enough, Will later nabbed a Laurence Olivier Award nomination for Best Actor in a Leading Role in a Musical per his performance in the London revival of Cabaret in 2013. Never one to rest on his laurels, Will also competed on Strictly Come Dancing (2016) and participated on The Masked Singer (2022). But not before, the UK babe popped up alongside Kaya Scodelario and Luke Pasqualino on Britain’s popular teen drama Skins (2010). Of course, Will’s career (and his clothes) really took off when he was cast in Mrs. Henderson Presents (2005). The BBC musical boasts Dame Judi Dench, Bob Hoskins, Kelly Reilly, and Will’s nude movie debut! Yes, Mrs. Henderson presents a stage filled with men’s flesh! And we get to see Young’s bare back, bum and a bit of peen! Suffice it to say, genitalia is good for whatever ails ya!
