Clearly, Michael B. Jordan is pushed. Not content material with being Individuals‘s Sexiest Man Alive in 2020, he’s now gunning to be the Sexiest Man Alive without end. Is there another technique to clarify how charming and crushable he’s as he delivered the monologue for this week’s Saturday Night time Reside?
Jordan begins off with a bit about his identify that might have been pulled proper out of the Catskills in 1939. “Michael B. Hostin’. Michael B. Jokin’. And, actually? Michael B. Nervous.” It’s low-hanging fruit, however he goes from clean to weak in a heartbeat and … effectively, who wouldn’t swoon?
He tells the viewers that, whereas taking pictures a bit for the present earlier within the week, he discovered himself within the studio the place at age 16 he had a task on All My Kids. (For 3-and-a-half years he performed Reggie Porter, who had beforehand/briefly performed by Chadwick Boseman.) Jordan jokes about his awkwardness, and is there something sexier than a man with a Creed physique and humbleness in addition?
Jordan then talks about his latest breakup (actually? Examine. Attractive.), which brings out Chloe Fineman, Heidi Gardner and Ego Nwodim in more and more over-the-top bids to win his coronary heart. Even Punkie Johnson – very overtly homosexual and happy with it – makes her transfer. “Punkie B. Curious!” she growls, pawing at his chest.
Will anyone please begin a social media marketing campaign for this man? Let’s picket Individuals till they retire their Sexiest Man Alive award and simply give it to him in perpetuity. #MichaelBSexyForever
