Michael B. Jordan is definitely taking this erstwhile title of Sexiest Man Alive a tad seriously as he literally put his “business out on the streets” in a recent underwear campaign for Calvin Klein.
But even sexy men need to answer to their mums, and so Jordan felt he needed to apologize to his mom or something. But first, let’s count the pecs and more in Jordan’s sexy new ad campaign for Calvin Klein innerwear…
Michael B. Jordan Sizzles In New Calvin Klein Campaign
Jordan’s Calvin Klein campaign is in the underwear brand’s iconic black and white color scheme and the “Black Panther” star can be seen in many of CK’s Athletic and Modern Cotton Performance underwear. For the fans, it was more of what lay beneath and inside that caught their fancy, although his toned pecs and abs also had many salivating.
Calvin Klein affirmed in a press release that they went with Michael B. Jordan as their new face because he embodies “confident ambition,” as well as “passion and physical intensity.” The release also stated that “the visuals [for the campaign] reinforce his discipline and uncompromising commitment to his craft.” The campaign was shot by Mert & Marcus and the images set the Internet ablaze as they popped up early Monday morning. In the first post shared by Clavin Klein, they wrote, “The debut. @michaelbjordan Calvins or nothing.”
Soon enough, the iconic fashion brand got cheeky with the second post, asking fans, “Should we drop more?”
Fans were quick to reply, with one writing, “OK BUT YOU GUYS NEEDED TO GIVE US A WARNING THIS WAS GONNA DROP EARLY ON A MONDAY MORNING!!!”
Another wanted more from Jordan, saying, “He should drop somethin too!”
Here’s the latest “drop” from Calvin Klein!

Jordan Claims His “My Business All Out In The Streets”
Jordan is also the star and director of “Creed III” and spoke to ET at the red-carpet premiere on Monday night. Jordan was asked how it felt to see himself in almost nothing in his latest Calvin Klein underwear campaign and handled the question like a pro!
Said the actor, “I was like, my mama gon’ have to see this. Let me call her and be like, ‘I’m sorry. It’s out here.'”
He continued explaining the “out there” bit, saying, “My business all out in the streets — literally.”
On a more serious note, Jordan also acknowledged how proud he was to star in the campaign as well as the movie, “Creed III”, as he gushed, “This was, like, a moment, you know? Just to have everything come together at one time, it feels great.”
He also shared his happiness about the success of his co-stars, including Jonathan Majors, saying, “And to be able to share that moment with my other actors, who are having a moment of their own as well, it just feels special. It feels like everything is happening at the right time.”

Michael B. Jordan Is Excited About ‘Creed III”
Other than starring in “Creed III”, this is also Jordan’s directorial debut and while he’s excited about the release, he did admit that premiering the film as the director, as opposed to only an actor, doesn’t feel all that different.
Said Jordan, “I mean, maybe a little bit. I just know I got to introduce the movie. So, other than that, it’s kind of business as usual. Just talking with you guys, talking about the movie, talking about my wonderful actors. It’s awesome.”
That said, he did feel kicked about having his family at the premiere as the star confessed, “We thick out here tonight, and it feels good. Hometown crowd. I got my family here, they’re watching the movie for the first time. So, it’s really special tonight.”
Here’s the trailer, something that has fans rooting for Michael B. Jordan, underwear and all!
