As we reported here, Michael B. Jordan is the personification of “dashing” aboard the cover of June 2018’s ‘Essence’ magazine (on newsstands now).
Continuing to ride the wave of buzz drummed up from the historic blockbuster, ‘Black Panther,’ the 31-year-old – who just turned heads via the HBO drama ‘Fahrenheit 451’ – is undoubtedly hoping those good critical and commercial waves will bring over some residual appreciation for the sequel to his hit boxing film, ‘Creed’ (due in theaters later this year).
With Twitter collectively fanning itself over the heat generated from the star’s uncovered snaps inside the mag’s pages, we’re sure some will be reaching for ice once they cop a gander at the behind-the-scenes footage of the shoot’s creation.

The Essence cover look like the typical gay guy on G***** “trying” to look and pose masculine. Lol. Can’t fool me!
he has some strong azzzzz n******
wait…you can’t say nippppples on this site? what kinda free speech blockage?
Why make this guy a heartthrob to black women when he will date and marry non-black or mixed?
As a black women I’m very sorry I’ve never found him attractive. he’s average hyped up brown skin guy more attractive to lighter skin men hmm Throwing up the 666 side and shutting one eye. Ain’t fooling me LMAO. Jesus/Yeshua is the way!
I agree. He is average with a nice body and likely a small package. He belongs on the cover of Ebony rather than Essence because he has not uplifted or supported black women in his career. I find Chad Boseman 10x more attractive.
I’m happy for him.
