So erotic, so mysterious, so sensual, Alfonso Herrera, known as “Poncho” by his friends, is a Mexican actor and former member of the sensational teen idol music group RBD. Born in Mexico City, Alfonso considered becoming a pilot but opted for the spotlight instead of the runway and headed to acting school. He made his screen debut in Amar te duele (2002), then landed the role of Juan David Rodriguez Pineda on the telenovela Clase 406. But his career really got going when he played Miguel Cervera on the teen, boarding school kids form a band drama Rebelde, which led to the creation of the band RBD, who went on to achieve international success from 2005 until splitting up in 2009. Since then, this striking Spanish stud who always has our D big, has focused on acting in a number of Spanish television series like Camaleones, El Equipo, and played the lead in the law professor fighting drug cartels drama El Dandy, all before his breakout turn as Hernando in the Wachowskis’ Netflix spawned series Sense8. The sci-fi series follows a group of people from all around the world who find themselves mentally and emotionally connected to one another. Though Alfonso is not among the men going full frontal or participating in a much discussed orgy scene, he does show off his broad chest and locks lips with a man in several episodes including “I am Also a We”, “What’s Going On?”, “Demons”, "WWN Double-D”, and “We Will All Be Judged by the Courage of Our Hearts”. Others might recognize Mr. Herrera for his work as the head-turning Father Thomas Ortega on The Exorcist, where we saw him scandalously lying shirtless in bed with a woman. While he played Boaz's cousin Javier Jimenez in Queen of the South, we finally got to see his South of the border below the belt in Dance of the 41 (2020). It's based on a true story about early 1900s Mexico, where, in a hugely famous incident, the police illegally raided a gay party in a private home. It must have been quite the fiesta, since in the movie at least, there are men in jewelry and furs, bathtubs galore, and we see a ton of dudes having sex with each other in a giant room, including Alfonso, before Alfonso finds a more intimate venue to get intimate with Emiliano Zurita. They say this incident made the number 41 deemed taboo and even unlucky in Mexico, but everyone was getting lucky at that party. He kept the party going in 2025 with the Mexican Netflix series The Dead Girls, in which Alfonso gets nude tons and even briefly flashes his cock! Alfonso Herrera, we want more of you bare-a!
