It says a lot when a man can be a complete turn on with all of his clothes on.
Idris Elba is steaming up the August 2010 cover of UPSCALE magazine. And we’ve got a few quotables as he discusses his two kids and how he’s dealing with his increasing fame.

The shoot was done at Atl’s W Perimeter, and was shot by celeb photog Marc Baptiste. Here’s some quotables from the issue:
Idris on conquering his fears:
“..what’s the point in living if you’re not going to try anything?”
On looking forward:
“I’m not here to live off The Wire for the rest of my life. I want my artistry to be known.”
On dealing with increasing fame:
“You have to be accessible all the time…one can water down their worth if they’re over-exposed.”
On his kids:
He doesn’t like to talk about his two kids, 8 year old daughter and baby son, saying “I love children and I love my kids. But they’re not part of that (Hollywood) world.”
Loves it. Idris’ upcoming projects include a role on “The Big C” on Showtime and his movie Takers coming out this fall.
