6 Reasons You Should Be Obsessed With Michael B. Jordan

Michael B. Jordan started off with early roles on All My Children and The Wire, but he cemented himself as a fine actor/fine dude as Vince Howard in the last two seasons of Friday Night Lights. This is one of those shows that I can barely get through the titles for — so many emotions, so many feelings! — but I know this: Friday Night Lights is where Jordan really started taking off.

Mindless romantic comedy is my third favorite film genre, and Jordan plays the most charming character in That Awkward Moment. I may blaspheme, but honestly I could have done without both Zac Efron and Miles Teller. Sorry, not sorry.

Jordan's star turn as Oscar Grant in the award-worthy Fruitvale Station, for all intents and purposes, yanked my figurative heart out of my chest. I laughed, I cried, I cried some more, I curled up in my bed, and so on.

And don't even get me started on his role as recovering alcoholic and misguided love interest Alex on Parenthood — another one of those shows that always ends up being a cry-fest. In this role, he's poignant, he's heartfelt, he's beautiful. Major feels.

Jordan has an upcoming starring role in Creed, the newest follow-up to the Rocky series. Hey, Michael: I can't wait to see what you get into next.

I repeat: Michael B. Jordan can wear the hell out of a suit. I love seeing him at premieres and on red carpets, because he knows how to bring it. Is it too early to deem him fashion royalty?
