How does it feel to be one of the beautiful people?
That s what the Beatles asked, in 1967. And that s what we asked Paolo Montalban Prince Charming in the groundbreaking 1997 TV production of Cinderella, newly back on the radar after Disney Plus made it available on Feb. 12.
On the basis of this performance, People magazine declared Montalban, from Jersey City, one of the 50 Most Beautiful People of 1998. When I got the phone call, I didn t know what the editors were asking me, he said. I thought I had won something.
He appeared, on an issue with Leonardo DiCaprio on the cover (this was just after Titanic ), on a double-page spread flanked by Anna Kournikova and Tom Selleck.
