Swagger Like Us: Vanilla Hollywood Boys With That Je Ne Sais Quoi

October 13th, 2011 - By MN Editor

Black men have a monopoly on swagger, we all know that, and most black women can agree that Idris Elba stands as the reigning and defining king of Hollywood swagger. The way he talks, walks, moves, and…need we go on?

In any case, aside from the Elbas of the world, we have to admit, there are some fine, full-of-flavor vanilla actors rocking it too. We’re not talking about JT here ladies (no cornballs here), we’re talking the white boys who exude effortless cool. These are the men who will always be welcomed by the sistahs of the world. We think you’ll agree.

 

"brad pitt"

Brad Pitt

Let’s just start off with the most obvious. He made quite the impression with his debut appearance in the cult film Thelma & Louise and hasn’t stopped since. His sex appeal, down-to-earth demeanor, and his stellar good looks will keep him in the running for People magazine’s “Sexiest Man Alive” cover for decades to come. Not to mention, he does have a comfort level with the sistahs. He and Robin Givens dates in his pre-Gwyneth Paltrow, pre-Jen Aniston days.

Swagger Rating: 5 stars

    I don't understand the term "white boys". Aren't they men also?… I'll take Sam Worthington any day! Where is Daniel Craig on this list with his gorgeous eyes!

  • ldstep

    Where is "The Mentalist" — Simon Baker? Ryan Reynolds? And JOHNNY DEPP? They are truly some yummy men in my book. I won't hate on you all too bad because you did start off with Brad Pitt. He makes me melt.

    They all look good to me, im definitely down for the vanilla men..I disagree with MN about Black men having the most swagger, there's lots of latin and white dudes that have it too.

    • MsDdre

      i love Pitbull the rapper. he has that latino swag down pat.

      What a shame that you are being downvoted for not being racist! (YES – if you think that ONLY black men have swagger, you are racist).

  • Terri
