He is super hot. It's this perfect sweet spot between kind of cuddly/cute and rugged/handsome. A lot of us do not want someone super ripped and muscular like the Rock or an athlete, but also the skinny rocker isn't my thing either. I like a guy who seems substantial, physically, but not super muscular, but also not out of shape. He's pretty much my physical ideal for a guy. Also like that his face is kind of soft, but with a bit of a beard he has a nice jaw and it's still a very masculine look. It's yin and yang.

Then add in that he seems like both the strong, silent type AND in touch with his emotions. I never really watched Dawson's Creek but I was very into his character on Fringe.

He is like the perfect man. Also he reminds me a lot of my DH

I should add that Diane Kruger absolutely taught him how to dress and got much better looking after he was with her for a year or two. He did an interview years ago where he talked about really admiring how she wore clothes, especially at the kind of events that actors have to do all the time where you are standing in front of people posing. She had a confidence and style that he appreciated, and you can see how he started taking that on as they were together -- he became a better and better dresser and he presents himself with this casual confidence that is extremely appealing. The fact that he attributes that to his slightly older girlfriend is even hotter, because it's a very specific-to-her compliment and it's very sweet to think of a guy admiring his girlfriend and even emulating her because it shows that he doesn't let his ego get in the way of his feelings for a woman.

Ok, I'll stop pontificating on the Unique Hotness of Joshua Jackson. But yes, it is there.

He dates women who are close enough to his age to have watched Dawson’s Creek in their youth.

Pacey was every girl’s dream boyfriend.

What type does he have. The only commonality the known women in Joshua Jackson's life is that they are all actresses. Looks like he does not limit himself when dating and really doesn't have a type. He leaves himself open to possibilities. Katie Holmes does not look anything like Diane Kruger, nothing. Other than they are both white women, they have nothing in common type wise. Diane Kruger, his first wife has nothing in common with his second wife, Jodie Turner. And the only commonality Lupita has with Jodie is that they are both only dark skin Black women.

Guys, the woman he married was a model. His current girlfriend was named People’s most beautiful. Trying to pretend these women aren’t beautiful is ridiculous at best and racist at worst.

Grow up a little. It’s not that deep.

lol it’s “racist” if you disagree with me! Seek professional help.

Tall, dark skinned models with curves.

What curves? She has a boy body. Very masculine, no soft lines, no tits. Way too muscular. Yuck!

Right? She looks very man-ish to me.

[/b]He was only married once, to Jodie Turner (a black model.) [b]

He dated Diane Kruger for 10 years but they never married. After that, he fell in love with Jodie Turner and married her almost immediately. They had a child and divorced 4 years later. This is what is very triggering to people who say they aren’t racist but they can’t wrap their head around the fact that a desirable man chose a black (undeserving) woman over a white (deserving) one. The anger they feel towards the woman he chose is bizarre.

This is the running theme of any Joshua Jackson thread. How supportive Diane was and how they were perfect etc. immediately followed by insults towards Jodi’s (and now Lupita’s) appearance focused on skin and hair. Prior threads about Jodi had the bonus of insults towards Joshua’s daughter. (Stay classy DCUM)

I don’t know what it is about Joshua Jackson, but it brings out a lot of latent racist rage. And look, this is no shade to Diane—they dated for ten years, but she moved on and married someone else. Just like Joshua moved on. The only ones who can’t move are racists hiding behind online anonymity.

Agree with this -- arguing Jodie Turner-Smith and Lupita are not gorgeous is just bizarre. Kruger was/is also beautiful.

I actually appreciate that he dates women in his age range. Kruger is two years older, Lupita four years younger. Jodie was the youngest at 8 years his junior, but by Hollywood standards that's nothing. He seems to like mature women who have their own thing going on, which I find very attractive.

Also, a quibble, but I don't think it's really been clearly establish that Diane Kruger cheated on him. I mean, it looks that way, but when people are together but unmarried and have the kind of jobs where you can go months without living in the same home on a regular basis, it's kind of hard to know exactly when things ended and whether she actually stepped out on him or they were basically separated and she met someone. I'm not one of those people who thinks it's not cheating if you aren't married (it can be), but they were fairly private about how that ended and I don't think it was ever totally clear what the sequence of events was.

I don’t think that was the case here. Joshua Jackson was IN the movie that Diane Kruger and Norman Reedus starred in shortly before they got together. It doesn’t mean she cheated, but the timeline is suspicious.

Sweetie, this is nuts. You are projecting some crazy conspiracy nonsense. I personally don’t even know who these d list people are.

Wasting ten years of a woman’s prime and fertility—any woman, any race—and then making a baby with a rebound is just trashy and cruel. Race has nothing to do with it. And I’d hardly call some washed up child actor a highly desirable man. Nobody really cares about these guy.

Right, but it's speculation. Agree that from the outside it looks like Diane and Norman got together before things with JJ ended, especially because he seemed more upset by their breakup than she did. BUT my point is that we don't actually know how it unfolded and since they were not married and therefore didn't need to get divorced, they could have broken up and she could have gotten together with Norman Reedus literally hours later and that would be extremely hurtful but not "cheating." We don't actually know if she cheated and never will.

DP here. But Kruger had a baby with Norman Reedus well before Jodie Turner-Smith had a kid with Joshua Jackson. Like two years. Also, Kruger has stated publicly that she and Jackson tried to have a kid together and it "didn't work out." We have no idea what that means. Maybe fertility issues for one or both of them, maybe the relationship was rocky and trying to have a baby made it worse, who knows.

A lot of people want to impose these very specific tropes onto Kruger and Jackson's relationship and I don't know why. I was weirdly invested in their relationship because I find them both extremely appealing people and really liked them together (I don't normally care about celeb relationships at all) but I do not understand this desire to cast her as this wronged woman and him as the guy who strung her along. It doesn't come off that way at all to me.

So not only did he waste 10 years of her life, he cheated on her with a co-star of a movie they were all in? Grimy! Then had a kid with the homewrecker? Wow!

yeah the dating pool for gorgeous oscar-winning Yale-trained actresses is so bleak! she needs to stop being so conceited and date an IT contractor from Reston.

Yale for acting hardly seems impressive.

Sure it is. It’s not NOVA community college.
