Ben Platt talks new album Honeymind, wedding vows and The Politician season 3
The Broadway legend discusses his queer love album Honeymind, the status of his “chaotic” Netflix series The Politician and how he got to “kiss Superman”.
Words by Sam Damshenas Images by Vince Aung “[I’m] quite bored,” Ben Platt quips after I suggest to the Grammy, Emmy and Tony-winning performer that he hasn’t got much going on at the moment.
Back in May, Ben released his acclaimed third studio album Honeymind, a collection of breezy, Americana-inspired lovey-dovey anthems dedicated to his fiancé Noah Galvin, before holding a three-week residency at Broadway’s legendary Palace Theatre.
There, the inaugural Evan Hansen was accompanied by a plethora of industry icons such as Kacey Musgraves, Kristin Chenoweth, Kristen Bell, Cynthia Erivo, Nicole Scherzinger, Alex Newell and Rachel Zegler.
