Always rememeber, Mr. Elba...BE YOU, DO YOU! A woman likes a confidant man who will stand by his decisions, and make no apologies for them! Stand firm in your beliefs and in your decision of whoever you chose to take life's journey with, and a REAL woman will be willing to "RIDE THE RIDE 'TIL THE WHEELS FALLS OFF!"

I am not just a fan of Idris Elba. I have loved him in all the work that he has done whether playing a good or bad role. the roles he plays doesn't make him. I met him at the auto show in DC and his personality is simply amazing, I would love to have dinner with him someday.

I just finished reading the article on Idris Elba. Ms. Amber well done. I thought I was reading a mini romance novel. I visioned myself sitting there in the moment. Idris is definiately listed among one of the sexiest man alive. He truly is sunshine on a cloudy day!
