The Bachelors Hot List: We’d Totally Marry These Hunks

Say hello to the sexy celeb bachelors we just can't get enough of and find out why we think they're total marriage material.

By Charli Penn · Updated October 27, 2020
01
Shemar Moore

Beach babe Shemar Moore appears to be aging in reverse. It’s his fun-loving personality and addictive charm that would certainly keep a marriage exciting.

Michael B. Jordan

Actor Michael B. Jordan has already managed to make a splash in film and TV, and he hasn’t even celebrated his 30th birthday. Even with a resume as impressive as his, this PYT told Oprah in 2014 that he hasn’t ever really had a “serious” girlfriend but understands the importance of respecting women no matter what because he has a sister, and he’d only want the best for her in the love department. Put simply, this sensitive soul will make a great husband, if and when he’s willing to settle down. (Fingers crossed.)

Lenny Kravitz

Lenny Kravitz exudes sex appeal wherever he goes with his rock star swag and his effortless style. Being married to Lenny would clearly have its perks: you’d have the best dressed hubby in the neighborhood and a rockin’ good wedding reception party. We could just see the guest list now.

Matt Kemp

San Diego Padres star Matt Kemp reigns supreme on our celeb crush list. Last we checked he’s still single and we’d sure love to mingle with this sexy jock. We imagine that the midwestern-bred cutie, who was raised by his mother and grandmother, would be the kind of husband who appreciates the little things his wife does for him and understands what a woman needs to be happy. That would be hitting marriage out of the park.

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson

We think standout heartthrob Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson would make one seriously handsome groom one day: Can’t you just imagine that killer smile matching yours in your wedding portraits? Add to that the fact that he’s respectful, gracious, talented and driven and you’ve got yourself one seriously hot husband (in your head, but we’ll take it.)

06
Common

Common’s a hopeless romantic, as proven by his kind words for A-list exes like Erykah Badu and Serena Williams. Imagine getting a sexy freestyle on your anniversaries or being by his side on the red carpet at the Oscars. Married life with Common would have any woman on cloud nine.

07
Michael Strahan

TV host with the most Michael Strahan makes us swoon every morning when he takes his post on Good Morning America and Kelly & Michael. Being Mrs. Strahan would sure make for juicy daily coffee talk, plus, who wouldn’t want to wake up every morning to this face?

08
Dolvett Quince

Celebrity trainer and The Biggest Loser star Dolvett Quince knows how to make a woman sweat. Married life with this hunk would mead healthy living at its finest. (Pun intended.)

D.B. Woodside.

Say hello to one of TV’s finest bachelors, ladies. It’s hard to watch actor D.B. Woodside do his thing and not swoon. He’s brought the swag factor to shows like Single Ladies and Suits, which has us wondering: What would some of those smooth moves look like at home?

Tyson Beckford

Eternally single and ever-so-fine, Tyson Beckford keeps our blood pressure a rising. Imagine if you were Mrs. Beckford and and this handsome model turned the halls of your home into catwalks daily….sigh. Yup, that’s one fantasy we’d like to see come true.

Laz Alonso

Afro-Cuban cutie pie Laz Alonso has been one of our favorite screen kings for the longest time. Who wouldn’t want to wake up to that sexy smirk each morning. If he’s on-screen debonair qualities match his offscreen romance vibes, he’s going to make his future wife extremely happy.

Tyrese Gibson

You already know that Furious 7 star Tyrese Gibson’s smile can light up a room. Add to that this sweet vocal talents, acting skills and A-list bachelor status and you’ve got one hot hubby for one lucky lady someday. Here’s to hoping he serenades her down the aisle.

Stephen Bishop

On Being Mary Jane, actor Stephen Bishop plays David, an ex who isn’t quite marriage material, but in real life we suspect it would be quite the opposite. He’s charming, sweet and totally down to earth.

Tank

Sexy “Stronger” singer Tank is all about singing the praises of woman through his romantic lyrics. Technically he has a girlfriend (on the record) but he’s not a married man just yet. Which means there’s still a little room for him on our bachelor crush list.

Gbenga Akinnagbe

Star of indie film Knucklehead, Gbenga Akinnagbe, closes out our bachelor’s hot list in style. Imagine meeting this handsome face at the altar, ladies? Can you see it? We sure can!
