Okay, my bad. I was busy over here playing with new hairstyles and wasn’t paying attention to Jana Kramer. And we all know what happens when no one pays attention to Jana, she starts spilling tea nobody needed. On the surface, this could have been fun tea, because it involved Chris Evans. But Jana skipped over the juicy bits in favor of the TMI. Jana told her Whine Down with Jana Kramer podcast listeners that she dated Chris before he became Captain America. Only instead of detailing America’s @ss in all of its chiseled detail, she used her airtime to hypothesize that he ghosted her because her pee smelled of asparagus. Because that’s what we care about.
Who knew Jana Kramer and Chris Evans casually dated years ago? Kramer gave her thoughts about People’s newly crowned Sexiest Man Alive and shared a TMI story about why she thinks things fizzled out… that involves “asparagus pee.”
On Monday’s Whine Down with Jana Kramer podcast, the 38-year-old actress said she and Evans, 41, “went on a few dates” when they were younger, over a decade ago.
“He wasn’t Captain America yet, but he was a heartthrob cutie,” Kramer said, laughing: “I can’t remember how many dates it was, I just remember the last date.”
“To this day I’m actually sort of mortified,” Kramer said of their last interaction. “This is so embarrassing.”
Kramer explained that she went over to Evans’s house in Studio City, Calif. one day where she hung out with some of his friends.
“It was a fun time… but I was getting a little sleepy. And so I was like, ‘Hey I’m gonna go to bed’ or whatever. And so I had asparagus for dinner that night so I went to the bathroom and he immediately went after me,” Kramer continued. “And so that’s the last interaction that I remember is him going into the bathroom after I just went to the bathroom with asparagus pee and never hearing from him again.”
Kramer, who said they “didn’t hook up that night,” went on to say she did “the asparagus walk of shame out of his house” the next morning.
“[I] never heard from him again,” she added, explaining the asparagus incident has “always been in the back of my mind.”
For what it’s worth, Kramer approves of People magazine’s choice saying Evans is a “great” kisser.
“I think he’s super sexy,” Kramer said, admitting she slid into his DMs “probably like a year ago.”
Ugh, what is this story?! It’s like one of those terrible cooking videos where the person is making chicken casserole and they add boiled potato chips and fruit cocktail to it. Jana tells us she’s dating Chris and that she was spending the night with him. Yet just as we lean forward to hear how he made her eyes roll back in her head, Jana clarifies nothing happened. And if dousing us with cold water wasn’t enough, she added the smell-o-vision of her asparagus pee. Fun! Thanks Jana. At least she threw us the bone about Chris being a great kisser. I guess we’ll have to take what we can get.
While I believe Chris would break up with someone for incredibly shallow reasons, I don’t believe the effects of asparagus are it. Maybe something else happened that night. Maybe Jana blabbed everything that happened between the two of them to anyone who would listen. Maybe she moved too quickly – who knows? Ghosting her was a d*ck move, but I’m willing to bet Chris had his reasons for it. And it obviously didn’t bother Jana too much if she slid into his DMs last year.

I have the same issue when I eat asparagus, but it has never made the entire bathroom stink. Chris Evans probably saw through her and decided it wasn’t worth putting up with her crazy.
I read somewhere that it’s actually a genetic thing that people can’t control, so no shame involved.
Some people’s bodies create asparagus pee when they eat it; some people’s don’t.
And also, some people’s noses can smell it and some people’s can’t.
I suspect that it’s less anything pee related and more that – if I’m reading it right, on their third date she was at a social gathering he was hosting at his house … and she excused herself to go take a nap. Which is kind of antisocial. Him: meet my friends Her: Zzzz Zzzz
And though Hollywood people may have different norms, in my circles, if it’s the 3rd date and you’re sleepy at your date’s house when other people are there all hanging out, you either find a cup of high test coffee and power or excuse yourself with “sorry late night last night” and go home, not commandeer a bed and crash.
That is weird, isn’t it? It’s also pretty presumptuous to assume that he would be okay with anyone, who he wasn’t close, good friends with, wanting to use his house for their crash pad.
I know I wouldn’t. I would excuse myself and go home to my nice, comfortable, safe bed.
i don’t think it was the smell of asparagus, i think it was the smell of unfiltered desperation and need for constant attention…
Spot on.
Girl has to tell herself it was the asparagus (which presumbly Evans and his friends ate too??) because she can’t handle the truth.
Absolutely! This chick is full of TMI! She really needs to zip it. She reeks of desperation. if I were a guy, All this blabbering is so unattractive. It’s really not a good look on her.
Guys, when you see this chick coming….. RUN!!!!!
hhhahha what is this story even, jana?! girl.
Asparagus smelling pee and TMI probably turned him off.
I feel a small amount of empathy for Jana here, because this is exactly the kind of thing I would think about every night before I go to sleep for the rest of my life even though he probably had completely forgotten about a week after it happened. However, I definitely would not remind the guy and THE REST OF THE WORLD about it 12 years later!
Jana Kramer is desperately thirsty. Why do we care about her story with Chris Evans? She’s always trying to extend her 15 minutes by holding on to someone else’s coattails
I was thinking the same thing, is she the thirtiest basic b_tch ever?! I swear I don’t really know who this woman is (minor reality star?, influencer?), except from all of her desperation stories.
Wasn’t she married back then? Or maybe married, then divorced, then engaged, then married, then divorced, then engaged again, and then broken up and then back together? When did she have time to date Chris Evans?
Didn’t this woman used to be a singer?
She is so pretty but she reeks of desperation and need for validation. She needs some good therapy and to stay single for a long while until she can become a complete person on her own…
I used to really like Jana in her early acting days. I can’t stand her
Everyone should just be honest. Don’t ghost people, it’s kind of mean don’t you all think? Just say “Hey I don’t think this is going to work out but I wish you the best”.
