You may know Terrence Jenkins,aka Terrence J,for being a host on BET’s video countdown show 106 & Park from 2006-2013. Or from his hotness and hosting talent as an anchor on E! News from 2013-2015. Or maybe it was his hosting gigs on Coupled in 2016, Are You the One? from 2017-2019, or Power Confidentialfrom 2019-2020. But then again, maybe you don’t know him from reality TV at all. Maybe you recognize his fab face as Dave in Burlesque (2010) alongside Cher and Christina Aguilera. Or when he played Michael in Think Like a Man (2012) and Think Like a Man Too (2014), where he makes being locked up behind bars look good, thanks to the lack of a shirt and a beautifully toned torso. Terrence has come a long way from his days growing up in Queens, New York, landing himself smack dab in the middle of Hollywood. While he’s been impressive just being his charming self and scoring tons of hosting gigs (he did the The Oscars pre-show for ABC in 2022), he’s also made a name for himself as an actor. Some of his acting gigs include playing Omar in All of Us from 2003-2006, Dante Young in The Game in 2011, and Coach Jenkins in Scream in 2019 on the little screen; and appearing as Ty in Stomp the Yard 2: Homecoming (2010), Red in Sparkle (2012), and Morrison Colvin in North of the 10 (2022) in the feature-length film category. Real life or real fantasy, he’s real hot.
