Although Black History Month has ended, I didn't think it would be right if we didn't show a little love to some of the sexiest Africans of Hollywood. I've decided to add men and women to this post, feel free to add more in the comments if I leave any out.
Baller Alert's Top 10 Sexiest Africans (This list includes actors/artists with african parents)
Idris Elba (Sierra Leone and Ghana)
I think all of us can agree that Idris Elba would have to be at the top of our hottest African man list!
Thandie Newton (Zimbabwe)
The beautiful Thandie Newton is Zimbabwean and Cornish. You may remember her most recently in Tyler Perry's "For Colored Girls".
Boris Kodjoe (Ghana)
With a name like Boris Frederic Cecil Tay-Natey Ofuatey-Kodjoe there's no denying the Ghanaian in Boris' bloodstream. I'm sure every lady of Baller Alert can agree that he is fine no matter where he's from!
Sophie Okonedo (Nigeria)
This half nigerian actress starred in "Hotel Rwanda" and upon first seeing her you can tell her beauty is undeniable.
Barack Obama (Kenya)
My president is black and he's hot too! How awesome that our first black president still stays true to his African roots.
Djimon Hounsou (Benin)
It seems I wasn't even looking at Djimon in "that" way until he got with Kimora Simmons. Once he knocked her up however, I started to see all of his sexy for myself. Thanks girl!
Charlize Theron (South Africa)
There aren't too many women in Hollywood that are more gorgeous than Charlize Theron, what can I say?
Iman (Samolia)
Super model, Iman is proof that black doesn't crack. Even at nearly 60 she looks just as stunning as she did 15 years ago.
Wale (Nigeria)
I may not be the biggest fan of Wale's "complaining" and "ranting" and I only have a handful of songs from him that i LOVE, but I can definitely say that he is quite a looker! Hey Wale, if they dont f*ck with you musically, I'd bet they'd do so otherwise :)
Osi Umenyiora (Nigeria)
Osi is a defensive end for the NY Giants and he is absolutely gorgeous. He may be known as Selita Ebanks' ex, but with an infectious smile like that, he can be known as my next!
Akin Ayodele (Nigeria)
Akin (short for Akinola) currently plays for the Buffalo Bills and is definitely my idea of Ballerific Eye Candy from the Motherland. Probably one of my favorites on the list!
