That Bulge Is Not Actually His: Idris Elba Shatters Dreams About His Bulge That Went Viral

Pictures of Idris Elba filming his upcoming movie "A Hundred Streets" in London on Tuesday started a heated debate this week on social media. People weren't so interested in the actor's handsome looks or fit frame draped by a svelte suit, but rather the situation in his pants. As the pictures show, something very long
was clearly beneath the right side of his trousers. Just what was it exactly: a random object or a burgeoning bulge? According to 52% of readers who took the hilarious online poll, it definitely seemed like the real deal. As speculation continued on Saturday, the actor set the record straight on Twitter: "The good news is i got a shit load of followers. The bad news is, that is a mic wire. #egowentintospaceshipmodethough," he wrote. And the good news is Calvin Klein wants him for an ad.
