Earlier today, the Broadway League presented a special 9/11 Tribute in Duffy Square. The Broadway community, including cast members of currently running Broadway shows united for an encore performance of the iconic song, "New York, New York." Ten years ago, Broadway performers helped inspire New Yorkers to return to normalcy with a landmark outdoor sing-a-long to "New York, New York." The song was composed by John Kander with lyrics by Fred Ebb. This time, Broadway came together in support of 9/11 Day of Service and Remembrance, engendered by 9/11 Day's "I Will" campaign (911day.org) which seeks to encourage millions of people to perform good deeds, support charitable causes, and volunteer in tribute to the 9/11 victims and survivors, and all those that rose in service in response to the attacks. In addition to cast members from Broadway shows, the other performers who led the show included: Joel Grey, Bebe Neuwirth, Ben Vereen, Brian Stokes Mitchell, Kara DioGuardi, Reeve Carney, Tony Sheldon, Brad Oscar, Nick Adams & more. The song followed NYPD Officer Daniel Rodriguez's rendition of "God Bless America." Broadway theater productions play an essential part in tourism, one of New York City's most vital industries.

"A Chorus Line" War: NICK ADAMS vs MARIO LOPEZ


I captured this photo of A CHORUS LINE star NICK ADAMS on June 21st at the stagedoor of the Gerald Schenfeld Theatre. In the background is a big crowd waiting to take a glimpse of Adams' co-star, MARIO LOPEZ.
From mostbeautifulman.com:
Nick Adams, born June 10, 1983, in Erie, Pennsylvania, is an American dancer, best known for his role as Larry in the Broadway revival of "A Chorus Line" opposite Mario Lopez. Adams has been onstage from the age of nine and began his professional career at sixteen. He earned a BFA in Musical Theatre with a minor in Dance at the prestigious Boston Conservatory of Music. Since his graduation in 2005, his career has taken off. Adams' first show after moving to New York City was the international tour of "Chicago" the musical. He then joined the Broadway company of Chicago later that year as the Mary Sunshine standby. Adams then moved on to become part of the original Broadway cast of "The Pirate Queen," where his voice can be heard on the cast recording with Sony Records. In 2008, Adams landed his big break when he starred as Larry, along side co-star Mario Lopez, in the hit Broadway revival of "A Chorus Line." The New York Post recently hailed Nick as having the best biceps on Broadway. HX magazine raves that Adams gives, "dance ten, looks ten" as Larry, and Perez Hilton describes him as, "hot and built." Adams' physique can be seen in upcoming advertisements for "2xist Underwear." His television appearances include: "Dancing With The Stars," "The View," "The Today Show," and "The Early Show." When Adams is not working, he enjoys spending time at the gym, taking class, dinning out, Central Park, and fundraising for Broadway Cares. He is represented by DGRW Talent INC, Choice Model Management, and CESD.

The war between A Chorus Line costars Mario Lopez and Nick Adams continues!
We all know that Lopez stopped Adams’ biceps from stealing the show, but apparently the former Saved By The Bell actor can’t control everything.
Underwear company 2(x)ist had been considering Lopez for an upcoming ad campaign, however the younger Adams landed the gig.
“Mario was originally No. 1 on our radar as we planned the campaign,” said an insider. “We were ready to call him with an offer, but then we saw Nick. He’s younger, sexy, more interesting. On top of that, his body was crazy. We set up a meeting, and when he walked in, that was it. We never even looked at anyone else after that.”
Jason Scarlatti, 2(x)ist’s creative director, gave final approval. He told us, “Nick’s very masculine, sexy, modern. It’s totally all about his body. Mario is a good-looking guy, but Nick had it. He’s up and coming, the new face of sexy. He’s original. He’s hot.”
So hot, in fact, that we featured him on Morning Goods just this week!
The aforementioned ad, meanwhile, will debut in Out’s August issue.
From nymag.com:
Mario Lopez and Nick Adams star together in A Chorus Line. Both wear tank tops in the production, kind of like you see above. You've probably noticed they both have very nice figures. Underwear company 2(x)ist noticed, too. In fact, they were so taken with Mario's lovely manly humps, they planned to use him in an ad campaign. The New York Post reports:
"Mario was originally No. 1 on our radar as we planned the campaign," said an insider. "We were ready to call him with an offer, but then we saw Nick. He's younger, sexy, more interesting. On top of that, his body was crazy. We set up a meeting, and when he walked in, that was it. We never even looked at anyone else after that."
