Show Us What You Workin’ Wit! Actors Who Were Video Vixens
Michael Ealy
Before he became one of Black Hollywood’s go-to stars, Michael Ealy was just another actor trying to get as much work as he could. In 2005, he was cast as the love interest in Mariah Carey’s “Get Your Number” video. Set inside a nightclub, Carey slipped her number to Ealy one digit at a time. Four years later, the For Colored Girls star would also play Beyonce’s boo in “Halo.” He was also asked to star in “Irreplaceable” but turned it down because he did not appreciate the theme or the concept.
