Elliot Page Is Just One of the Boys in Steamy Bathhouse Spread

This story originally appeared on Out.Where is "the hottest party in the East Village" of New York City? And who will you find there? How about New York's newest resident pop star, Troye Sivan? He's there with playwright and actor Jeremy O. Harris, award-winning author Marlon James, and actor Elliot Page, just to name a few of the LGBTQ+ celebrities hanging out and sweating together. And all of them were wearing next to nothing. That's how a writer for New York Magazine's online style publication, The Cut, summed up his visit to the Russian & Turkish Baths on East 10th Street. NYC's oldest bathhouse is over a mile east of the Stonewall Inn in a neighborhood famous for LGBTQ+ nightlife, culture and community.But Matthew Schneier — the magazine's out gay chief restaurant critic, who is married to comedian and Straightiolab podcast host, George Civerisf — didn't just pen a piece about the bathhouse. He brought along a famous out gay photographer, some high-fashion items from Gucci, Hermès, and Dior, and they put together a steamy spread of the hottest queer and straight guys to ever bare their chests. The result is "The Boys in the Baths," a rare look at some of the coolest stars of today as they shvitz and kibitz. "Around Labor Day, we invited a mix of Baths regulars and a few first-timers — Troye Sivan, who’d just moved to the city; Marlon James, days after getting the book review of a lifetime," wrote Schneier, "to wear some fashion. But hardly any." Page — who's still waiting for offers for new roles coming off his star turn in Christopher Nolan's megahit movie, The Odyssey — hasn't been shy about baring his chest since recovering from top surgery. In the photo by photographer Ryan McGinley, Page is rocking a strong six-pack, and those abs don't lie. The out trans man revealed he's a newcomer to bathhouses and that, if you were to hear him singing in the shower, you're likely to hear either songs by Cher or Julie Andrews."I went to a bathhouse recently
