The moment we laid eyes on Regé-Jean Page, it was all over. Between his roles as Chicken George on Roots, Leonard Knox on For the People, Chico in Sylvie's Love, and Simon Basset on the Netflix series Bridgerton (which is currently streaming), it's hard not to be drawn in by Regé-Jean's piercing gaze and dazzling smile. The 31-year-old British-Zimbabwean actor is so charming, he could even make reading the phone book a work of art.
Not only is Regé-Jean devastatingly handsome, but he's also witty on social media. We came for the thirst traps on his Instagram but stayed for the hilarious captions and uplifting posts. That's right — Regé-Jean frequently takes the time to speak out about topics that are important to him, like representation and toxic masculinity. When they say "get you a man who can do both," they mean Regé-Jean. Come on, did you see his stint on Saturday Night Live? If all the recent Bridgerton and Sylvie's Love content has left you thirsting after this gentleman, the pictures ahead will surely leave you satisfied.
If that ocean view includes Regé-Jean Page in a swimsuit.
It's his eyes. We love a man who can EMOTE!
Yes, he really can play and was once in a pop-punk band.
"Loco"? His monologue? That "Drivers License" skit? All comedic genius.
Come on, you know you're imagining it.
All eyes are absolutely on him.
We're currently looking for our suits, so we can join him.
Just look at his adorable smile! It should be illegal to look this good.
He's even got an extra drink on hand to quench our thirst.
We'd be lying if we said we wouldn't run to him in a heartbeat.
If only we could be at the beach with him.
Then again, we might just want to stay here a while.
OK, maybe we have more than just damn to say, but look at him!
He could also light up the world, who needs sleep?
He can make any piece of clothing (or lack thereof) look damn fine.
We need a couple of martinis, shaken not stirred, immediately.
We love a man that can pull off 19th-century attire.
And the other one is firmly holding onto our hearts.
If only we were the reason for this amazing smile.
Only this time it looks like he's been waiting for us at a party. Sorry it took so long, but we're here and ready to dance the night away.
He even has the crown to prove it.
This is the image that will live rent-free in our brains for the foreseeable future.
