Let's Pause For a Moment to Enjoy the Gorgeousness That Is Billy Brown

As the winter finale of ‘HTGAWM’ approaches, all we can think about is how to survive the holidays without our weekly date with steamy star Billy Brown. Solution: Keep this gallery handy!

By Charli Penn · Updated October 27, 2020
01
The Love Is Real

Brown, who plays Annalise’s hunky lover Nate on ABC’s How To Get Away With Murder, brings news meaning to hot chocolate. How do we love him? Allow us to count the ways.

He Always Forgets To Button That Top Button

And, who could be mad at that? Mmmhmm. Billy, we see you boo!

Getty Images
03
He’s Ready For His Closeup

Now this is what you call profile perfection. Does Brown even have a bad angle? We vote “no”!

Getty Images
04
He’s Always Dapper

Click that “like” button if you can’t get enough of Brown and his perfectly tailored dress shirts. Go ahead, we’ll give you a minute.

05
That Winning Smile

Although his character Nate Lahey is involved in a lot of serious drama on the show, in rea life he smiles more, and we’re head over heels for his wide, winning grin.

Body By Brown

This man needs a workout tape for the fellas, like, yesterday. Come on, you know you’d be the first in line to buy your guy one for Christmas.

07
He’s Always Giving Us A Gun Show

If you tune in to How To Get Away With Murder, you already know that Brown’s body is toned to perfection. Even when he’s fully clothed, those guns have a way of stealing the show.

08
He Holds His Own

Steaming up the screen with a brilliant and beautiful actress like Viola Davis can’t be easy for any actor to pull off and keep his cool. Brown seems to do so effortlessly.

He’s Cool Like That

Brown, who was born and raised in Inglewood, California, just exudes Cali coolness.

Attention, Please!

There’s something about Brown’s commanding presence both on and off screen that immediately puts the hooks into your heart. We’d call him captivating, but we need a stronger word. How would you describe your crush on this cutie?

This Crush Is Nothing New

If Brown looks familiar, it’s because his time on HTGAWM isn’t the first moment he made you do a double take when he popped up onscreen. Brown is best known for his role as detective Mike Anderson on Showtime’s hit drama Dexter.

So Swagalicious

Brown has a real way about him both on and offscreen and it’s sending his female fans into a frenzy. Can you see all that swag dripping from this photo? Oh my!
