PLAYBOY: You’re also a rapper. This lyric from “Sex in Your Dreams” is particularly interesting: “Bone-hard diamond cutter, dick thick like homemade butter.”
ELBA: You have been listening. [laughs]
Q12
PLAYBOY: “Show you parts of your p**** that you ain’t discovered.” Has your mom heard the song?
ELBA: When it’s read back to me like that, I’m mortified that such trife could come out of my mind. [laughs] Let me tell you, some fans hate it, some love it, some can’t stand the idea that I’ve got the audacity to rap. But under the guise of being a rapper, I can say what the **** I want, and until some journalist reads it back to me, I’m getting away scot-free. Maybe I’ll go on Lettermantonight, saying, “Hey, my dick’s as thick as butter.”
Playboy interview
"The gods who nurse this universe think little of mortals' cares. They sit in crowds on exclusive clouds and laugh at our love affairs. I might have had a real romance if they'd given me a chance. I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter
