Frankie Grande

It would be lazy to file Frankie Grande under Ariana's brother and stop there. The man has carved out a real stage career, from Mamma Mia! to Rock of Ages and Titanique on Broadway, plus a run as a reality-TV personality. What I like about him is that his relentless brightness reads as genuine rather than performed; he seems to actually enjoy entertaining. That's harder to fake than people think. Born in New York City and trained at Muhlenberg, he's a working theater kid who happens to share a famous last name. I'd rather celebrate the work he's actually doing than the surname.
