“The Most Beautiful Black Man Alive”
Posted by Bossip Staff
Kimora would be proud that her future babies will be beautiful. Her boo and two time Oscar nominee Djimon Hounsou was named the ‘Most Beautiful Black Man Alive’ by TV One All Access.
His body is on point though. Each time we look at these Calvin Klein shots, it makes us want to hit up the gym pronto.

He does have a nice body…
Other black men were on that list. It’s an injustice to only name who got the number one spot.
Other than that, brotha is as fine as wine.
I admit he is a good looking man but damn I know he got some moisturizer for that face. It looks like he used baby powder as after shave.
NOT! HE HAS A NICE BODY AND THATS ABOUT IT, I KNOW DAMN WELL HE WASN’T #1
The hair line is a wee bit out of control though…
I love him as an actor and I find him attractive he has a very distinctive features ad some beautiful teeth..lol
Yessir! He was #1 and IMO it was well deserved. his personality adds to it. He seems so humble and that is a turn on for me.
yea he does have a nice bod!!
I wonder if he’s REALLY in love with Kimora…?
who pursued who??
I know they say opposites attract, but I mean really!!
Sorry.
From Access Hollywood:
“Though the list may be topped by Djimon Hounsou, it also includes Denzel Washington, Shemar Moore and Will Smith in the rankings, men who win top honors for not only appealing to the ladies, but for having proven themselves to be great men off-the-screen, in their every day life.”
I’m glad the dude in ‘i love…’Snickers” wasn’t in this countdown. He favors Michael Jackson circa 1982-83 too much. Scary.
Not really, but he is decent looking.
I don’t know about MOST beautiful, but he is on the beautiful side of the spectrum lol.
they need to add Idris fine ***** on that list.lawd!
Sculptured physic- why so greasy though
hm, these pics remind me of him in Janet Jackson’s video. ‘Love Will Never Do Without You’. O, the memories.
Don’t know if this is another Bossip joke, but I do think he is sexy. I swear every since Bossip slammed Tay Zonda, it is starting to feel like Black History Month on here, giving all these black people positive articles. LOL
Come on! this list is whack. That gremlin might have a nice body and maybe a greater personality, but his face! God he is soooo ugly. Blind *****s know nothing. Shemar maybe (even with the gay rumors), but will smith, with those ears. Why do good looking men like Michael White get looked over and these men get on lists. So gross.
La tiene pequeña…
African Beauty never fails!
THIS IS ONE SEXY BLACK MAN AND I LIKE HIM AS AN ACTOR!
JUST DON’T ROLL OVER TO THE WHITE *****ES THEN YOU LOST YOUR # 1 FAN…. *****! LMAO!
I think he’s small when he’s not erected, like the avergae man is, Heyzhel, but it seems only Kimora Simmons will know how big Djimon is when he is sexually aroused….I wish I knew!
¡Pienso que él es pequeño cuando él no ha erigido, como el hombre de avergae es, Heyzhel, pero parece sólo Kimora Simmons sabrá Djimon cuán grande es cuando él es despertado sexualmente. el deseo …I que supe!
he has a little sex appeal going on, but he’s not beautiful
GIVE, US, FREE!!!!!

“I’m glad the dude in ‘i love…’Snickers” wasn’t in this countdown. He favors Michael Jackson circa 1982-83 too much. Scary.”
stop playin’…you know you’d jump at the chance to be with “Mr. Cherry Chocolate Rain”!!!!
(ha ha ha ha)
His body is well sculpted and just beautifu, if they did not air brushed and the lighting contours. He is handsome but just a lil dry in this pic, it could just be the gray not blending well for him. But I’d hit it!! {like he’s interested…}
I must say, he’s nice to look at but he SHOULDN’T be number 1 I’ve seen better at the gym.
great gobbledy goo.
uhh…aren’t those little pics, like, 20 years old?
From the neck on down I would agree, but no way is his ugly face better looking than the African American men on the list. African men are ugly period.
great body,don’t know bout most beautiful black man alive.
I agree he’s a beautiful specimen, but we need to stop quantifying ourselves by saying most beautiful “black” man, “black” interior designer…”black” beauty magazines…etc. How about just the most beautiful man in the world.
Stop labeling ourselves like a jar of pickles, putting disclaimers on us. It’s just like when YT says ‘oh he’s hot for a black guy’. It’s time to take the ‘black is beautiful’ message to a new level. Show, don’t tell.
We need to learn subtlety. YT doesn’t put sexiest “white” man alive on their stuff, they just make sure that it is one of them and that’s all you expect to see every year to come.
It’s time to get to the point where we just present ourselves like YT does– everyone has to compare himself or herself with us to even begin to be fabulous.
It’s time for YT to pick up a magazine not labled ‘for blacks’ unknowingly and maybe see an ad here or there with their faces on it. Like we do when we look at the majority of magazines out there. Don’t announce it’s a black whatever; just conveniently omit them like they’ve been doing all these years. Beat them at their own game, don’t adopt their negative behaviors toward us for our own behaviors.
PS. Bossip, ‘coons’ are animals not people and always have been regardless of what some ignorant people thought was a witty insult. Eject that from your vocabulary. Find another way to show your displeasure with your own.
chocolate and more chocolate yummie
@ mimilaroo
I agree, I thought it was odd they would have a category like this… I know if I was on the staff I would ask “So why do we have to have a “black” qualifier here?”
Are ya’ll smoking rocks?? this brotha is busted! Hell Naw he should not be on the list. I don’t care how humble he is.
In terms of famous black men I agree. That man is BEAUTIFUL!
That is one bad brotha. Mmm-mmm.
Mrs
Sculptured physic- why so greasy though
– He was oiled up so that his body can mimic the luster of steel for Calvin Klein’s Steel campaign.
YIKES!!!
“‘Most Beautiful Black Man Alive’ by TV One All Access.”
Why does it have to be qualified as ‘Black’ man (yeah, I know, but still)? Put Djimon and Matt Damon together — who’s the most beautiful man? thank you.
He is a very beautiful man. I just don’t like that gray beard stuff on the first pic. Some of yall don’t know what beautiful is. It doesn’t mean cute, handsome, or pretty. You don’t have to be the cutest to have beauty.
He deserves it. Just needs some lotion in that picture.
How is it an injustice to not name the other 9 men? The point is to get you to watch the damn show. And injustice used liberally waters down the importance.
I’m agreeing with the disaproval of the label Best “Black”… as though we cant compete universally, just amongst our own..
Of course, it just won’t do unless its Djimon Hounsou. I understand people have different tastes. For instance, Shemar Moore does nothing for me and Common is just OK.
HIS ONE HOT BLACK GUY…YES I LOVE HIM!
WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE BLACK LABEL? I LOVE AND PROUD OF IT, AND THAT PICKED ONE REAL LOOKING PURE BLACK DUDE..YESSSS!
@mimilaroo, TXbred and Nita:
i c u and ty.
@CubaLinda:
ditto.
i though he was, you know, gay? at least that’s what i though after seeing him in a video back in the 90s and he was dancing with his hands all in the air .. and LOGO channel taught me that that was a gay move .. am i right or am i right? anyway, Kimore STAYS being a beard and she knows she’s always asking, how YOU doin? ROTFLMBAO!! LOL
am I the only person that thinks he’s not all that in the face??? he has a nice bod but thats it..
His skin is so beautiful….it’s like a dark chocolate lake and I wanna take a swim.
Love him.. His essence and spirit are beautiful. There is an elegance about him. His accent is captivating, I love to hear him talk. I think that honor is well deserved. No disrepect but I’m tired of seeing either Shamar Moore or Will Smith at the top of these type of lists.. I also think Idris Elba should have been ranked a little higher up on this list. Good gawd, he’s sexy and that british accent, Mmmmmmmmmm..
@ Crap Talker-
I co-sign.. His skin is so rich..dark chocolate lake is a great *****ogy.. Hell I wouldn’t mind takin’ a dip myself..
He is sexy…so sexy. I absolutely LOVE dark-skinned men. They are so damn FINE!
uh…imma go with….A NO!
i though he was, you know, gay? at least that’s what i though after seeing him in a video back in the 90s and he was dancing with his hands all in the air .. and LOGO channel taught me that that was a gay move .. am i right or am i right?

LMMFAO
@crap talker “His skin is so beautiful….it’s like a dark chocolate lake and I wanna take a swim.”
dark chocolate winter lake .. cracked, icy, winter lake, right?
Can’t please black folk. If they did a top 10 and had just 1 or 2 black dudes in there, people would still be *****ed. Minority males are so underrated because they generally aren’t as many at the top of the top of the A list so no one considers them. They should do another one for Asian men and another for Latinos. I nominate Dr. Suresh from Heroes!
That screw face lookin ***** is considered beautiful?
sexy ***** body.. agree….
most beautiful man.. o rly
***** looking a lil ashy…lol…what about morris chesnut? He should have an award he chocolate and just edible…boom chica wah wah!
you gotta be friggin kidding me!? i can’t see sh*t on the comment board! this is a joke of epic proportions, bossip! you guys suck!
I am sooooo in love with this man. That soft deep voice and gorgeous accent is so seductive. I’m not mad at him being in the #1 spot.
Why are people tripping on the black thing? People does the sexiest man alive thing. Should they have copied them? This list is just for black men and hopefully will include people excluded from People’s list. I for one am grateful for a list full of our men.
lOL…how this not considered racism that black people gotta have a separate list???
yall some hypocrites!
ps, too bad i couldnt make the hot list this year…i handed in my application a day late
@ Mr O Dot
Please!
Niggga please.
I bet he ain’t even the most beautiful black man on his block!
(I’m not hating or anything, either. Really I’m not, lol)
He’s always either ashy as hell or greased the f*ck up in EVERY pic I see of him
*The B/W pix remind me of the old Janet Jackson video
Hey! My-boy is voted the best looking brutha! Brutha? Why can’t he be the best-lookin kat in the world? SEE? SEE? Are you black people still not seein the ole—double ,double?
Anyways..it’s cool cause he’s dark like me,and I APPLAUDE THE SISTAS ON BOSSIP THAT ***** AT US NON-STOP,BUT STILL LOVE’EM SOME BRUTHAS!

by the Mainstream Media
@ Dena…hate much? Have you met all African men to make that statement? I didn’t think so. Hell you ever been to Africa? Go sit yo ***** in the corner for that dumb***** statement.
The man is beautiful…love everything about him from his skin color to his nose to his smile…..hmmm sexiness all over.
He looks like a Black monkey-I am embarr*****ed. That man is NOT Fine. He has ugly features. Yuk!! Yuk!!
A Big mistake was made. I feel like throwing up!!
He looks like a Blue Black chipmunk. Seal looks better than him and he is UGLY- This man is disgusting- No one cares that Kimora has him. That vote was so wrong.
This man is sooo ugly, yea he has a great body but thats it. his face is like one of those masks they use to drive away evil spirits.
ive seen so many men with that kind of face and i could never find him attractive yuck
i think denzel, will and wentworth miller are the hottest
Some of ya haters (Jamie, Sucre, Dena) can keep on hating cuz he don’t want you hoes anyway. He may be ugly to you but Seal and Djimon, who you define as ugly have the hottest chicks in the game. So fall back you ugly angry heffers.
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaahh
He is ashyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
thats a shame
I love in BLOOD DIAMOND when he pulls his underware down and says, “What diamond?!?” Awwww….I feel like a bad little girl. lol
He looks a little ashy. He’s missing some eyebrows it seems.
he is handsome. just viewed his new alubum and profile on a celebrity and millionaire dating site named searchingmillionaire.com .many women looked at him there.
This is the ugliest ***** man I have ever seen. Now, where is Idris Elba ( Daddy’s Little Girls) or Jimmy Jean Louis (Phat Girls). Those are some fine brothers!!!
His body is kicking and he’s got a nice smile, but he’s not hardly the “Most Beautiful Black Man Alive”.
Lord, that man has a body on him…Give us us free!
Sorry, couldn’t help myself

Matt Damon was picked as People Magazine’s Sexiest Man of the Year.
How many average women who are not white think that Matt Damon is sexy?
I bet not many.
Djmon has lots of sex appeal we always give props to our own and we should keep on doing that.
If this BLUE BLACK wilderbeast is MOST beautiful! My WORD He is TOOOOOOOOOOOOOO black n ugly!

If that Mandingo is the BEST we black women should have to look at while you all glorify mixed gorgeous women. Take these ugly heffers
I totally agree, he is stunningly beautiful. I remember when my dad was alive, we were watching the newly released Janet Jackson video, ” love will never do without you”. My dad remarked, “what a beautiful black man” we both looked at each other in agreement. See, I got my love and appreciation for my race from my dad. He always believed we are special. He always said, white people wouldn’t put so much energy into destroying us if we were not valuable.
Love yourselves my black people. Don’t have a narcissistic love, have a genuine knowledge of how much God loves and values us, just like any of the other peoples on this earth that he created. He does not love us any less that them. God bless my people.
Very nice and the accent (beautiful). wow Dena state “african men are ugly period”. Your ***** must also be to make such a comment. Not sure where you are hanging out. Every group has people who are decent looking and because of your ignorance, you think all good looking men are AA. Please enlighten yourself.
He is attractive, but nowhere near the most Beautiful Black Man.. What about Tyrese, Idris, Blair Underwood, Morris Chestnut, Malik Yoba??? I personally know plenty B E A U T I F U L black men and not a one is in in the entertainment industry. I’m happy to say they’re all delicious too! Nothing I like better than that sweet dark chocolate man, I swear!!!!
What I am reading in most of these posts is a hatred for our dark-skinned brothers and sisters.
You may have bought into the racists’ hate of the African, but, many of us will never hate ourselves because racists hate us.
Too many of us continue to hold on to these views of the African as ugly and inferior. We have accepted the lie that other races are superior to us, especially if they have straight hair and light-colored skin.
Know your history people. We have been lied to. In order to subjugate someone, you first have to convince them they’re nothing. Too many of us have yet to realize what racists worldwide have willfully and knowingly done to us.
Thank God some of our ancestors were intelligent enough to NEVER believe the lies. Thus their decendants like myself have complete knowledge of how racists have tried and will continue to try to make us hate ourselves and each other.
Stop fullfilling the Ku Klux Klans’ vision of you. Wake up and fullfill Gods’ vision of who you are and can be.
Don’t you know that we were the FIRST people who walked this earth?. Africa is the land where man was first created. You think God thinks nothing of us, then why did he create the first man from African soil?.
NOT that African congo man!!!!!!
Wow, some of you self-hating *****es and nigz are so lucky the white man raped your grannies and lightened your ignorant *****es up…
I LOVE THIS DUDE!
CHECK THIS OUT GO TO:www.my*****e.com/ilovemyfans
FOR SOME REASON BEYONCE HAD THIS SONG REMOVED. LEAVE ME A COMMENT AND TELL ME WHY YOU THINK THIS SONG WAS REMOVED FROM MY*****E!!!
Some of you women women who are calling this man “stunningly beautiful”, “fine as wine” etc..
Obviously you need to get out of the house more.
Please. Some of you sound like you’ve been locked up in an all-women’s prison for like 10 years, and ain’t never seen a decent-looking black man for so long. Please
i don’t care how that nicca face look i bet that dyck will take a sista back to the motherland have you making foo-foo and ish oh yeah the face aint all that but i’d ride that till the wheels fall off *****tttt that ding-ling prolly would make me go dig kunte kente up out the damn grave and shake his hand
@ Yes I Said It
Aren’t you a dude? Would you rather these women drool over Matt Damon?
Are do you want this chocolate boy wonder for yourself? I sense some hateration. Not a very manly look.
al of yall ladies should come to Africa! we have some really sculptured men up in this joint….Djimon is only the tip of the ice!
@ Dena , pls shut your ignorant *****up!come to africa than talk mtf!!
*Or do you want*
Sorry for the typo
My mom & girl friend was all upsit about that because Denzel Washington & LL COOL J was under him.
The poses are a bit corny looking, but his body is SOOOOO HOT! Goodness *fans self* Wooooo!!!!!
I’ve loved this man since Janet’s video
Boyfriend looks good, no doubt. But TVOne put him above Denzel! Now that’s just wrong. Besides, any sexiest list that overlooks Michael Ealy is completely bogus.
You know I LOVE some Djimon. Hmmm Hmmm Hmmm is all I can say. Black men really are BEAUTIFUL.
Hell to the naw….
I’ve ALWAYS thought that he was fine as hell….since he appeared in Janet’s “Love Will Never Do” (Without You) video….pure perfection!!
Dena said : “From the neck on down I would agree, but no way is his ugly face better looking than the African American men on the list. African men are ugly period”
You must be really stupid or even racist. I bet, you are not black and you never been to Africa because they are way more beautiful than the African american man !!! And, let me just remind you that YOU come from Africa so you and your family are UGLY according to you. Period!
*****!
He’s got a nice body, but his head isn’t good looking at all. Everything but his head. He is a butter head. He might be nice, but if it wasn’t for those pictures of his body he takes, he would be listed as ugly. He has no hair, he’s dark, and of course, look at his facial features, if a woman looked like him she’d be labelled ugly as can be, but its acceptable for a man to be bald, dark, old looking. really.
