Joshua Jackson thinks it’s weird that dating is all about phones these days

Joshua Jackson is just so sexy. That’s all I can come up with at this point. He’s just… hot. Ridiculously hot. I remember liking him so much on Dawson’s Creek, but who would have thought that he would grow into this total HUNK that stands before us? Anyway, Joshua is 38 years old and single for the first time in a decade. Joshua and Diane Kruger were going through some major weirdness around this time last year, but they stuck with it for another six months before finally breaking up in July (or at least that’s when they announced it). I believe Diane has already moved on with Norman Reedus. And so Joshua is single and ready to mingle.

Joshua appeared on The Ellen Show yesterday to promote the current season of The Affair. Ellen flat-out asked him about dating and what it’s like for him to be single these days and Joshua seems a bit flummoxed, but he handled it well. He said:

“Things have change a little bit since last time I was single. Maybe it was there, but I don’t remember it. I mean, everything’s on your phone now, right? There’s no more talking to people anymore. You talk to somebody and they’re like, ‘Ugh! No, no, no, no, no! We don’t do that anymore.’ So, yeah, it’s been quite a big change.”

After that, Ellen jokes that he should set up a Tinder account and he jokes about what he would even put on his Match.com profile. Yeah, if Joshua ends up on Match.com, I’m joining Match.com. My God. If hot, sexy, scruffy lumberjack types are on Match.com, then we should all join. You know what will happen though – Joshua will take a job somewhere and he’ll end up with a costar. No dating profile needed! Here’s the clip. I love that Ellen gave him a Christmas-y modesty pouch for his business. Raise your hand if you would love to see Joshua in nothing but the modesty pouch.

      Christmas themed modesty pouch?
      I don’t think I understand, I think he’ll have to show me how it works. Probably more than once.

    I never watched Dawson’s, he came onto my radar in The Affair. So sexy…those eyes.

    • lizzie says:

      this is kind of creepy – but even though he was a teenager on Dawson’s Creek he was legitimately sexy. I watched as a teen as it aired and again in my late 20’s – and he was and is magnetic. i just remember watching it as a teen thinking “this guy is so cute and sweet” and in my 20’s thinking “this guy must crush it in bed”

      • Lex says:

        It’s all good – he was playing a teenager but he was like 19-20 during the first season so not gross at all!

    A month ago I lost my phone. I could afford a new one, but I decided to take a break on the phone. My husband and kids still have their’s. It’s nuts too me how everyone is attached to their phones . I will get another one soon, but it’s been nice not being accountable to an electronic device .

      And people get so mad if you don’t have one! I rarely take my phone with me places- I have dropped and broken the screen twice, I refused to pay to fix it a third time, and it is more problem than plus for me. It is nice to have that freedom! My mom, dad, and sister get so crazy about me not having it. They CONSTANTLY say stuff to me about it, and make crappy remarks like, “well, if you ever had your phone MARGIE, then we could tell you.” I want to be like, “You ever think I am disconnecting from you b*tches for a reason?” Plus my husband has his all the time. If someone really needs me, they know to call him.

      • Aims says:

        I’m right there with you!! If it’s important call my husband or son and we’ll talk. Otherwise , my stress level has gone down and I’m happier without it.

    It is weird, but unfortunately there’s no going back.

  5. lunchcoma says:

    I’m laughing at how many reactions to this (including mine) will be, “You can talk to me – no phones required!”

  6. Luisa says:

    He is ridiculously hot. And so so good on The Affair.

  7. Sayrah says:

    Still team Pacey and now team Cole. Love Joshua Jackson.

  8. Kezia says:

    Pacey forever!!! Crushing hard for over 15 years

  9. Pamela says:

    I would throw away my phone forever for Pacey.

  10. Londongal says:

    F.A.F. would.

    It’s funny. I kind of felt that way about pubic hair. When I got married at 19 in 1995, people still had it. When I became single in 2006 people didn’t have it anymore. Such confusion over the idea of hairless peen. Just saying. (:

    I have and always will be the biggest Josh fan, as an actor and as a human. He’s friends with a lot of friends of mine and he is simply a lovely, lovely, true blue gentleman.

  13. Jayna says:

    I’m just catching up on the third season of The Affair. He’s great in it.

  14. iralagi says:

    I was shipping him and Anna Torv during Fringe days. Olivia and Peter should make it in real life.

  15. Reece says:

    Mine.

    Josh is probably an Rh negative bloodtype. Go look up the info on this blood type. That’s why you find him so magnetic and sexy. Part of him is probably a little “otherwordly” or another type of human being. Look at how many human species were running around in the past. Evidence is there, you just gotta look. Besides strip the beard off him and he looks like “one of us lot” not one of you. There are differences, but unless you read up your medical or archaeological history books this will be beyond most of you guys.
