43rd NAACP Image Awards – Backstage And Audience

Laz Alonso, star of NBC’s Deception, is gracing the cover of the latest issue of JET magazine, and talks about his sexy image, single status, and desire to have a family. For the record, he would like to be in a committed relationship when he has children, so keep that in mind when you spot him and propose paternity. You know, I’m here to help. He also went to Howard University, which means he’s wonderful.

Here are a few excerpts from the cover story:

On Being Labeled a Heartthrob:

“I don’t take it too seriously because looks fade. We all are going to get older and that whole heartthrob label will go to someone else… Regardless of how you look, the way you make a person feel, that’s eternal.”

On Relationships:

“When dating somebody, I like to see them laugh and make the times we spend together more fun than they could ever imagine.”

On Fatherhood:

“I want kids— just not out of wedlock… Because my father died when I was young, I’m extra cautious about not creating a single-parent home.”
