Chocolate Deluxe

Yes, he is fine. And this morning, “Why Did I Get Married Too” and “Meet the Browns” star Lamman Rucker is all yours. Lamman paid a visit to ESSENCE headquarters a few weeks back and brightened up our day. We thought we’d share the love.

Show and Tell

Lamman started acting long before he hit the big screen. For his first major role the dashing young actor played Martin Luther King Jr. in the 4th grade. How cute!

Role Play

We’ve got a love scene of our own that we’d like to perform with Rucker. We can’t guarantee that they’ll be able to air it on “Meet the Browns,” though.

Man in Blue

What a shocker—he looks good in uniform, too. Catch more of Lamman Rucker and Jill Scott’s embrace in “Why Did I Get Married Too,” out on Friday, April 2.

Tell Me Something Good

Everyone says actors are egotistical. It’s great to know that Rucker thinks about more than just himself. The on-screen heartthrob participates in various charity events like the Stephanie Starks HOPE Foundation Celebrity Read Aloud Tour, where he read to elementary students in L.A.

Half On A Baby

We hate to admit it, but there’s something about a man that’s good with kids that gets a girl in the mood.

Teacher-Student Fantasy

Not satisfied with just being a talented actor, Rucker earned a graduate degree in education and curriculum development. Oh, have we got a lesson plan for him.

Sigh

We could stare at Lamman’s smile all day. Actually, we’re going to. Care to join us? Swoon.

No Intermission Necessary

Lamman’s latest off-Broadway play, “Black Angels Over Tuskegee,” drew quite a crowd and we can see why. We wouldn’t mind watching the hunk doing his thing live.

Pucker Up

Yep, he’s pretty perfect. There’s nothing we’d change about his face… Oh, one thing—our lips aren’t attached to it.

Can’t Stop Staring

If this isn’t the perfect way to wake up in the morning, we just don’t know what is. You aren’t going to get that much work done today. Just accept it and keep this window open.
