Summer is almost here, so in celebration of all things hot, rolling out compiled a list of our five hottest black couples. So grab a glass of ice water and crank up the AC before delving into this steamy list.
From the White House to the Queen’s house, Mr. and Mrs. President transcended politics to become one of the world’s most respected couples. Setting a new standard for black love, this duo makes running the country while looking great seem easy.
Jay-Z and Beyoncé
Hip-hop’s original Bonnie and Clyde tied the knot last year and confirmed their poorly kept secret that they were together and crazy in love. Both graced Forbes list of highest paid entertainers last year, proving that they are not only one of the hottest couples around, but they’re also sitting pretty on a pile of cash.
Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith
A crowd favorite, Will and Jada have been putting other couples to shame for over a decade. Ridiculously talented and just as beautiful, the pair is like a piece of ghetto fabulous furniture with the plastic still on — so pretty, but they can’t be touched. The Smiths appear to be getting better with age, so don’t expect them to drop off this list anytime soon. In fact, it wouldn’t surprise us if they were still on this list 10 years from now … gray hair and all.
It doesn’t take a mathematician to figure out what happens when you add a smoking hot supermodel with a deliciously chocolate actor. That’s right; you get added to our list. Recently engaged, Lance and Eva have all the girls around the world looking to their respective beaus saying “if you like it then you better put a ring on it.” Lance did.
Denzel and Pauletta Washington
Being a philanthropist is cool. But being one of the most attractive and successful black men on earth that just so happens to be a philanthropist is even better. Add on a wife just as beautiful and dedicated to philanthropic work as you are, and you have Denzel and Pauletta Washington. Easy on the eyes, and even easier on our hearts, Denzel and Pauletta make even the most uninspired of folk want to get up, get out and give back.
