Idris Elba Is Essence Mags Cover Bachelor!!! YUM!!

Chocolate Boy Wonder and the sexiest British dude I've ever seen in my life, actor Idris Elba covers the August 2009 Bachelor issue of Essence Magazine. All I can say is... I've seen this man in person... and veeeeeery up close... FINE! The only word that can describe him! Wait... Yum diddly yum yum yum!!! Those words too!

In his cover story he talks about what turns him on, the type of women he likes to date and relationships.

On Dating:
“I’d rather date someone who’s regular. But what often happens is that she faces huge criticism like , ‘Why her? She’s Miss. Ordinary’ ”

On the type of women he likes:
“Be an independent woman. I love that……”“But at the same time don’t be ashamed to, you know, throw your toys on the floor and let me pick them up.”

On relationships:
“There is something quite devious about my personality,” he confides with a sly grin. “I’ll do all the right things. I’ll be the upstanding gentleman but behind closed doors, I want to let loose. As long as I know my secrets aren’t going to get out. You know what I mean?”

On his previous relationship and 7 Year Old Daughter:
“It’s complicated when you were once an item and then you’ve got this child who is so untouched by the drama that you both had…..I understand how people get hurt and have arguments. But we work through it.”

Idris Elba Newest Cast Member On NBC's The Office

Okay... I already love NBC's sitcom "The Office", and putting my husband on their makes it even better, even if it isn't going to be a regular full-time role.

Idris Elba will appear in six episodes of the NBC sitcom "The Office" later this season.

NBC made the announcement Thursday afternoon during its portion of the TV Critics Assn. press tour in Los Angeles.

While details are being kept under wraps, NBC did say the actor will play a no-nonsense hire at Dunder Mifflin's corporate office who rankles Scranton branch manager Michael Scott, played by star Steve Carell. I soooooooo can't wait!

Idris Elba The Black James Bond???

... YOU DAMN SKIPPY! That'll work as far as I'm concerned. Sexy to the umpteenth power, the intoxicating British accent, and eyes that pierce the soul... Yeah... sounds like the first black 007 to me. I'm hearing that he's already been talking to the producers of the movie and damnit why not! I did a post earlier last month asking who would be a better black Bond Will Smith, Diddy, Terrence Howard, or Dijimon Hounsou. Why oh why did I not think about my husband? Diddy damn sure needs to hang up all them hopes, dreams, and aspirations! Them knock knees and big gums don't do the Bond series any justice! But he begs to differ apparently. He's already submitted his audition tape to the producers and directors of the movie. WHATEV!

Meet The Ex-Elba

And all this time I thought my husband had never been married before. But YBF.com has uncovered the ex-factor of that sexiness that is Idris Elba. Meet his ex... Kim Elba. Seems Kim and their child live here in Atlanta and she's a makeup artist to the "stars". I'm trying to figure it out though... maybe she's just been having a really hard time of it... because she's looking a bit haggard in the face. And YBF is also reporting that the ex Mrs. Elba is good friends with Sheree Whitfield, who will be starring in Bravo's upcoming season of The Real Housewives of Atlanta. I'm assuming at some point in time during the season, we'll get a real view of Kim.
