By Charli Penn · December 11, 2015October 27, 2020
01
Meet Our Steam Kings

We round up the hottest movie and TV stars of the year. Ladies, can you handle it?

(l-r): Fox, Starz, ABC
02
Omari Hardwick On “Power”

Even when Ghost is wrong, it feels so right, all thanks to Omari Hardwick who plays the drug dealer turned businessman with swag for days.

STARZ
03
Michael B. Jordan In “Creed”

Leading man Michael B. Jordan’s chiseled boxer babe in Creed really won us over. Now that’s what we call a love T.K.O.

04
Morris Chestnut On “Rosewood”

It’s a shame you have to be dead for Dr. Rosewood to look you over, because he plays one fine pathologist on FOX’s hit show.

FOX
05
Michael Ealy In “The Perfect Guy”

Even though Ealy played a deranged boyfriend in The Perfect Guy, he was still, well, perfect. Would you agree? Bravo Mr. Ealy!

06
Billy Brown On “HTGAWM”

For How To Get Away With Murder fans, Annalise’s gorgeous lover Nate Lahey, played by actor Billy Brown needs no introduction. His screen time is red hot and always premium viewing!

07
Thomas Q. Jones On ‘Being Mary Jane’

Former pro baller Thomas Q. Jones’s Being Mary Jane appearances as “Cuddy Buddy” were absolutely unforgettable. From his steamy, late-night romps with MJ to their intimate conversations by her pool, we couldn’t take our eyes off Jones.

08
Idris Elba In Everything

Idris Elba makes a special return to his starring role on BBC’s Luther this week, but thanks to every role we’ve seen him play this year, there was no way we were leaving him off this list. Is there a screen he hasn’t added some serious steam to? Yeah, we thought not.

09
Trai Byers On “Empire”

The oldest of the Lyon brothers, Andre handles business like a boss and we love tuning in to see him balance humility, hard work and hotness.

10
Jussie Smollett on “Empire”

Middle Lyon brother Jamal’s smooth falsetto and humble ways keep our hearts racing.

11
Jesse Williams On ‘Grey’s Anatomy’

Paging Dr. Dreamy! Jesse Williams keeps things hot on Grey’s Anatamoy as Jackson Avery.

12
Bryshere Y. Gray On “Empire”

The resifent PYT on Empire keeps us guessing and tuning in again and again. Thank you, Bryshere!
