Men Who Make Our Temperatures Rise

This Friday, we thought it appropriate to commemorate some of Hollywood’s sexiest actors. These highly delectable gentlemen deserve recognition for their God-given talent, wonderfully good looks, and matching physiques.

Idris Elba – The “Obsessed” co-star is a London native that has not only proven himself to be a powerful actor, but one of the most scrumptious specimens of eye candy on the scene. Idris is a music head as well. He co-produced a track on Jay-Z’s “American Gangster” and spins under the name of “Big Driis the Londoner.”

Boris Kodjoe – Born to a German mother and Ghanaian father, Boris has been on the scene for quite a number of years, and appears to get sexier with time. Nicole Ari Parker is one lucky lady, but we’re sure she is well aware of that fact.

Morris Chestnut – OK. At this point, Morris Chestnut may be considered an obvious choice, but there’s a reason that this brotha consistently scores leading roles. He’s the perfect package that includes good looks (oh – that winning smile), a nice muscular frame, and versatile acting skills.

Blair Underwood – Who can forget when Mr. Underwood got his big break on L.A. Law over a decade ago? A family man and philanthropist, Blair is arguably one of the most suave, debonair and sexiest men in the game.

Taye Diggs – Multi-talented and fine as all get out (despite his occasional cornball tendencies) Mr. Diggs is due recognition. Btw, he’s really doing his thang on ABC’s Private Practice, for those of you who are unaware…

Derek Luke – The word “yummy” doesn’t even begin to scratch the surface when it comes to this alluring young actor. He embodies an unusual blend of rugged strength combined with a deep sense of humanity that comes across in every role he takes on.

Djimon Hounsou – Kimora Lee Simmon’s beau exudes a raw, yet tender masculinity that is hard to resist. Coupled with his amazing body and rich, deep voice, Djimon is simply irresistible.

Lance Gross – This ridiculously handsome rising star can be currently found on Tyler Perry’s “House of Payne,” and we’re not alone when we say that we hope to see much more of him in the near future. Get a load of his recent interview with Clutch here.
