It Must Be the Money: 7 Swag-Based Celeb Crushes That We Don’t Understand

June 19th, 2012 - By IndigoBlack

“I don’t see it.” That’s exactly what I say each time the following names are brought up in a conversation about hot men in Hollywood. While many women, even followers of this site, swear up and down that these brothas are delicious and could “get it,” I’m always reading their comical comments, scratching my head and thinking, “Wow…really?” I’m a fan of most of these individuals, but you won’t see me throwing my panties at the computer screen for ‘em. But hey, whatever floats your boat, right?

Ever since Beyoncé upgraded this brotha, people have been saying for years that he’s got it going on. Got what going on and in what way you ask? I can’t say 100 percent, but you can probably blame it on June Ambrose who made him re-evaluate his fashion choices, and the business sense he cultivated on his own, which helped him reach an audience outside regular hip-hop fans, invest in NBA teams, push a fashion label, be the head at Def Jam for a while and more. That in turn helped him rake in more and more money, and a lot of women find a man good with money to be attractive. For the most part, he seems to be a pleasant and sweet character, especially when he’s with his lady and baby girl. But all that talk of “Jay is looking good as hell right now!” just because he put a fitted cap on evades me…

    Wale Folarin! So fine.

  • L-Boogie

    WALE FOLARIN! Yeah, I am screaming this fine man’s name. LOL! Judge me if you want.

    • FromUR2UB

      L-Boogie…you’ve been on a deserted island somewhere…far, far away for a long time…a very long, long time. (heehee!)

      • L-Boogie

        No. I have been working on something important. And I think you have me confused with someone else.

    When u getting money, women don’t have a care…

  • Chanda

    In other words most rappers out now are a hot mess. I have mixed views about this post. While I agree that they’re not all that at least they’re not all cookie cutter cute because that gets boring as well. I couldn’t get with a guy with head to toe tattoos but who are we to judge what’s attractive or not attractive towards other women? If anything their confidence and swagger lures them in. Not everyone wants a clean cut Ken doll and even some of them are a thug in disguise.

  • jackieOsassin

    the only one on this list that’s acceptable based off looks ALONE is wale. and i stress “looks alone” because the way he treats women is deplorable.

    • GoddessAmongYou

      How does he treat women? Or how do they let themselves be treated by him?

      • jackieOsassin

        the whole situation with rosa acosta over how she allegedly “dissed” him on twitter. it’s a two way street, you’re right, but let he who is without shame cast the first “b*tch”. as a man, i’d expect him to have a little more couth.

        • http://twitter.com/MsRedboneBrite Tee Elyse

          Don’t forget how he just threatened to beat up Amanda Diva because she tweeted that he “moonwalked” out onto the stage at some performance she just attended a week or two ago!!

  • quest

    I don’t know how anybody can deal with all thoses tattoo’s. I mean all on your face. And I agree 100% with this article. None of them are cute. Although I like the music and I have always been a JayZ fan.

  • Janay

    If you seen low down dirty shame with jada pinkett and that broke busted post man, you know what happens when you give ugly men too much attention LOL. Any woman wanting to sleep with Rick Ross looking like a dime has got it all wrong

  • Janay

    ALl these guys are ugly. When you think about it, almost every male Rapper is hideous. Back in the 90s these rappers would never be able to compete. Idk if standards are just low but I totally agree with this article. It’s so bad now that ugly men who used to know they were ugly see gucci mane or jay z or lil wayne getting praised and are becoming cocky. And these ugly guys have the nerve to require dimes. LOL ugly guys getting play has messed the whole dating game up LOL .

  • Stacy L

    Waka is actually attractive, if you can get past him being a dumba$$.. That 106 and park interview though!!!! After that foolishness I just couldn’t with him! I for the most part agree w/ all the other ones, except Drake.. I’ve had a crush on him since Degrassi lol.. judge me! idc, haha

  • nu age

    i AGREE WITH

    jayze wasnt cute or goodlooking in teh 90s and he still aint cute or good looking
    yung jeezy seriously nuthing to say
    rick ross is my personal beef….ugh those booobs r just so wrong
    drake looks like a neanderthal to me ( or a bit slow)
    wale meh trying too hard to be deep I kno he naija and seriously those guys r intense ( creepy)
    WFF is more WTFlame, i dont even know 1 single song from him…where do theses peeps crawl out of ?
    and my personal fave lil wayne….is it the ferret look, the skinny body or the weezy voice but this guy just doesnt hv it..even wit all that money still lacking ( actually all of YMCMB r lacking some in brains and a whole lot in talent JS)

    Peace

  • Timmy Teabow

    All of the guys listed here have satan as their “wingman”-the devil is a powerful drug!!

  • awet

    Rick Ross…My body was not built for that!

  • Pam

    Don’t forget Cee Lo! This man brags on having 2 or 3 women a night. The sad part is that I have heard women talk about how he could get it. Ummmmm, y’all can have that, I’m good.

    • Boss

      Again, I am a big man lover, so I think Cee-Lo is handsome, too! That coupled with a great singing voice makes him all the more attractive to me

  • Toya

    I agree everyone on this list is unattractive……I couldnt do it with anyone of them!

  • TRUTH IS

    MN, I hate your site; it jumps around like it has stinging nettle. whats up with that?
    This list is the truth!!

    I never quite understood the Wocka Flocka thing either, but it is what it is, right. I do, however, think Wale is quite handsome. Have you seen him smile lately? It’s a lady killer.

    • GoddessAmongYou

      He is cute. But it’s so sad when he opens his mouth to talk and it just takes all that cuteness away.

  • sabrina

    OMG, RICK. FREAKIN. ROSS. I’ve been thinking that same thought since DAY ONE! I don’t get it…idc how much swag or money he has, I could never be attracted to all that. ALL THAT.

    • Mira

      And he’s always showing his man boobs! Ewwwww!
