It’s no secret that Shemar Moore is considered one of the hottest stars on TV, in more ways than one. The successful actor has been making fans swoon since before his Soul Train days, even if Alicia Keys wasn’t on board. He got his start on a soap opera, playing Malcolm Winters for eight seasons of The Young and the Restless, before starring as Derek Morgan on Criminal Minds and Hondo on S.W.A.T.. One woman even went viral for putting up framed pictures of a shirtless Moore around her house. Now the latest woman to show her love for the actor is a great grandmother, who received a blanket with his face on it as a Christmas gift, and the actor's reaction was too cheeky!
Moore reshared a video to his Instagram Stories, in which a great grandmother was opening up a gift. Once the blanket was finally opened all the way by another family member, she saw that the blanket featured none other than the actor, and she was immediately happy. She quickly noted that she can “take him to bed,” which brought a lot of laughs not only with the family but likely to anyone who watched. Just check out the look on her face:
While the clip is very funny and sweet, I’m not sure what’s better: the great grandmother’s reaction, or Moore captioning “When you ask Santa for some hot chocolate.” The whole post is very cheeky but completely hilarious. I'm also sure a number of fans probably would've reacted the same way that the woman did. It’s the perfect gift, and seeing the recipient's reaction makes it all the better.
The star himself can certainly understand the value of family. Moore frequently talks about his late mother and fulfilling her dreams by becoming a father. Although he joked on the post, one would think that Moore could appreciate the joy that the family brought to their grandmother by gifting her the blanket. With S.W.A.T. filming again following the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, he's undoubtedly extremely busy with work.
Shemar Moore previously shared side-by-side photos of his abs in his 40s and 50s, looking as impressive as ever in his 50s. He’s also opened up about avoiding having a “dad bod” and working out. Considering all of the action and stunts that are done on S.W.A.T., it’s not so surprising.
Fans can surely find their own Shemar Moore blanket somewhere if they want one of their own as well, but it won’t be the same if it’s not gifted by the Derek Morgan star himself. I don’t think anyone will have a better reaction than the great grandmother, who was living for the present. Fans will be able to see more of Moore in the final season of S.W.A.T. premiering on Friday, February 16 at 8 p.m. ET on CBS as part of the 2024 TV schedule.
