Djimon Hounsou - Calvin Klein Ads

Djimon Hounsou - Calvin Klein Ads

Blood Diamond actor Djimon Hounsou is featured in the new ads for Calvin Klein Underwear, which were shot by photographer Peter Lindbergh in the Palm Springs desert.

This is first time the brand, launched in 1982, has used an African model in its ad. The CKU ads are also a throwback to the original Calvin Klein Underwear campaign, shot by photographer Bruce Weber back in the 1980s.

“I regularly watch how much, when and what I eat,” Djimon told the NY Post. “It really becomes a daily journey. You just have to do it – get up, eat something, go to the gym – so you can burn as much as you can and look lean. It’s pretty challenging.”

Djimon, 43, has recently been seeing the dynamo director of Baby Phat fashions Kimora Lee Simmons.

HOT, HOT, HOT!!!!! I love this man :)

This BLACK MAN IS MINE, MINE, MINE!!!! I knew about him years ago when he was modelling for French mags, and fell in love with him immediately. Gladiator came along and he got noticed big time. So, if anyone out there is trying to make a play for MY BLACK MAN, FORGET IT!!!!!! This New Yorker claimed him a long time ago!! LOL

Those lips, those eyes, those legs, that ****!!! YEAH BABY!!!! Where’s the oil, I’d like to oil that man from head to toe — going slowly on that middle — if you get my meaning!!!

God, I need a cold shower real bad!!!

Djimon was in Janet Jackson’s video – what a smile, what everything. When was that? I either saw Djimon first in that video or as the star in Amistad.

:lol: hey Maria, I know he is your man, but girl he is fine as hell, and I am not trying to claim him, he is all yours but girl he is hot

Hmmm…surprisingly he is not packing heat ;p

damn.. what a man

I remember that video … I think he sort of stole it from Janet and in Gladiator …. he is such a great actor… and now… a sex symbol? And he is a bit over 40, no? WOW

I know he is a black man but is there any need to dip him in black paint as well?

42 and hawt! Go Boy!

hmmm….. he’s hot!!

Lookwhaticando @ 07/18/2007 at 5:18 pm

Now that is one hot man

excuse me maria, but i claimed him since “love will never do without you” video, eventhough i was a preteen back then. hahaha!!!!

lol @ #19

he is not dipped in black paint more like creme was sprayed on him and then rubbed in.

anyhow im glad someone in hollywood can admit that they go to the gym and watch what they eat since a lot of actors just happenly to be born the way they look now ;). i have much respect for him. i wish some of the female actors would admit to working out i think it would possible change the way a lot of young girls and older women feel about themselves. but i wont hold my breath. he looks beautiful and its well deserved

reminds me of Seinfeld when Kramer poses for CK.
