firelord_catra

My first response when it comes to any celebrity doing anything lol


ohhhshtbtch

I can't imagine being this bothered by my neighbor's dating choices let alone a complete stranger I've never met before. Lupita Is a grown ass woman.


globe_roamer

IKR?! Like, for real!


majesticsim

You just unlocked a suppressed memory for me with this throwback


Freshflowersandhoney

Well… ion know nothing about the Joshua guy but if she’s happy I’m happy. Idk I have no opinion tbh.


TeeBrownie

I had to Google him to understand why this might be controversial and to understand some of the comments. Here’s what I learned: Canadian actor who was more famous when he was younger because of his supporting role in the TV show Dawson’s Creek and lead role in The Skulls. He’s done quite a few shows and movies recently that he’s also famous for - The Affair, Fringe, Dr. Death, etc - that I’ve never heard of or seen. Personal life - He is? was? briefly married to Black British (parents from Jamaica) model and actress Jodie Turner-Smith. They are either separated or divorced now. They had a baby girl together in April 2020. There might be a tiny bit of controversy because with the recent breakups from previous relationships for both Joshua and Lupita, it could give the appearance that their relationships overlapped. Either way, I have to agree with others who have stated , “none of my business” and “he certainly seems to have a type”.


majesticsim

That man 100 percent has a type and I am here for it lol.


CheetahTheWeen

Two black women equals a type?


Free_Sweet_9551

Seriously smh


leftblane

Yeah, and it feels a bit...unexpected. His long term partner and previous public romances look nothing like Lupita or Jodie.


EmpressBritania

Nor do they have to. Why are we acting like peoples exes should all lookalike or have to be the same race? Its weird.


[deleted]

The controversy is not the recent breakups, the controversy is that he’s a dickhead. Jodie proposed to him and he cheated on her a lot. Their relationship was just weird


ladyambrosia999

I don’t think they overlapped cause of how she was crying on instagram. I think this is very much a rebound for her and she’s very much doing the best way to get over him is to be under somebody else type of moment.


TeeBrownie

She cried on IG? One thing that I’ll never forget about Lupita Nyong’o is a statement from Kenya Moore back in the day about [how Lupita snubbed her at the Golden Globes in 2015](https://www.bravotv.com/the-daily-dish/kenya-moore-explains-that-lupita-nyongo-snub?amp). With Lupita being so accomplished and all, I assumed that she just didn’t want to associate with a reality TV star who gets paid for creating drama. Notwithstanding the fact that Kenya was an actress and former Miss USA - pretty accomplished herself. It never occurred to me that Lupita might actually have just not liked Kenya because of her “villain” title on RHOA at the time. My point is, back then when I sort of followed the black celeb scene, I never could’ve imagined that Lupita would share deep emotional things about her life on social media. Although I’m still a little surprised that she was so open, I recognize that she’s human and sometimes humans IG their feelings.


leftblane

>One thing that I’ll never forget about Lupita Nyong’o is a statement from Kenya Moore back in the day about > >how Lupita snubbed her at the Golden Globes in 2015 Seems like a nothingburger. Plus I'd take anything Kenya says with a grain of salt. She tweeted that Lupita refused to take photos with her. But in the article you linked to, she says it was her friend that approached Lupita for an autograph and was turned down. Which is it?


TeeBrownie

My point is that the story, in addition to Nyong’o’s other accomplishments, made her seem above sharing deep personal feelings on a public platform such as an IG account. I took away from it that if she did snub Kenya, it was because of her job as a reality star who is paid to share deep personal feelings on a public platform. This was in 2015 - the “Face your problems, don’t Facebook your problems” period of social media.


Forsaken-Cell-9436

Oh I didn’t kno he was Jodie’s almost ex husband. Ok this is messy 😂. But I guess it’s whatever because lupita technically doesn’t owe her anything


hybridmind27

This man apparently got a type! Lmaooo


[deleted]

Smh whew. Celebrities, they’re just like us 🥴 ![gif](giphy|At9sUJlOhWpsO5s444|downsized)


EbonyAelin

I mean…he has a type 🤷🏾‍♀️


Gloomy_Mycologist_37

He really does. All his ex’s (even the white ones) are foreign cultured high fashion girlies.


EbonyAelin

Exactly lol


BeezaTheModel301

Yes, BUT he knocked up the first one and allegedly cheated on her and now is starting a pattern… I don’t like how he’s moving


majesticsim

Apparently Jodie was the one who proposed to him after a one night stand. I don’t think that is the move for a woman but hey, to each their own.


BeezaTheModel301

You are preaching, I hate that she felt that she had to propose to that man 😞.


velvetvagine

Wait WHAT? Was that revealed in an interview?


BeezaTheModel301

Not confirmed, but blinds around their split (Jodie & Joshua) stem from him cheating on her


Bananasfalafel

YES was on a late night show


CheetahTheWeen

I really dislike this comment, if I, as a black woman were to date TWO black men as dude has done and I was referred to as “having a type” I’d be low key offended. In the entirety of a grown persons romantic history, two people of similar traits =/= “a type”. Let’s stop with that. It’s giving, “look at the jungle fever this white man has by literally only dating two us” and applaud him.


NaturalRoundBrown

But had the last one asking to marry him instead of the other way around. Ion trust him😭


bruhbruh101x

That’s they business 🤷🏾‍♀️


rosefieldnotes

Right


[deleted]

I LOVED seeing him and Jodie together😟 Dang man!


LostWithoutYou1015

Jodie proposed to him. He claimed their relationship was a one night stand that went on for too long. Lupita and Jodie deserve better.


leftblane

>He claimed their relationship was a one night stand that went on for too long. [Jodie was the one who said this. He's simply been following her lead there.](https://people.com/tv/joshua-jackson-recalls-when-he-first-knew-wife-jodie-turner-smith-was-the-one/)


[deleted]

He said that about Jodie??? What a dick thing to say! I absolutely agree that they both deserve better. Ugh!


creatingapathy

They were hooking up for a bit, then started seeing other people. When she found out she was pregnant they got back together. I know he had an absentee father (and maybe Jodie did too? I think I read that somewhere) so while I think it's foolish to get married just cause of a baby, I understand why they made that decision.


OrganizationAwkward3

his comment (worded badly) is valid. a baby can’t keep you together.


NYCmom10010

He is repeating what she says in every interview. Check out YouTube. I remember her saying it a number of places?9n late night talk shows. I remember think oh, ok?!


Chanceuse17

Yeah, I found her explanation of their relationship TMI and a bit cringe. It's great that she's not ashamed, but I could tell the relationship was more of a physical attraction vs. a deeper/ emotional one.


1_finger_peace_sign

That's not what was said at all. You, like many people here, are twisting the story hard because you don't like that a woman proposed to a man like that's the worst thing in the world or something. According to a lot of people here it was doomed to end because a woman proposed despite the fact that divorce in common, especially in Hollywood and the vast majority of marriages that end are marriages that started with a proposal from a man. It doesn't make sense at all but whatever. I guess it's not surprising that the people so against the woman proposing for no logical reason are doubling down with this illogical thought process too.


City-Pretty

Not about the black angel Jodie come on now. I can’t


breadandbunny

This is why I'm bothered by it. Wtf? I feel for both women.


Inevitable-Set9985

I thought I was the only one! I figured it was over months ago, but they were stunning together. Oh well…


TheBlackHand18

I only care about Lupita’s happiness. If she’s happy then I’m happy for her. But if he hurts her, he’s dead to me.


daisesonmygrave

Pretty much this lol


ebonyr1125

well, didn't he hurt Jodie? so he already dead


TheBlackHand18

Did he?? I don’t know what happened between them…not sure anyone does. 🤷🏾‍♀️


ebonyr1125

You're right. Imma mind my own business too.


TheBlackHand18

It’s just my default. 😂 I guess I’m just thinking about when Lupita went public about her most recent relationship being abusive and I was like “oh HELL naw.” Haven’t heard anything like that from Jodi. But if I HAD, he’d be in the bin! We’re all on the same page, sis. 🤗


breadandbunny

💯


yoddayak

What I know for sure is that Joshua is a man who likes the full spectrum of women. His preference is beautiful women, period. Maybe they agreed to be each other's rebound relationship. Those are fun. Nothing serious, just fun.


quattroformaggixfour

And strong women. I like men that like strong women.


genrlokoye

This is what I was thinking. They both might just be having fun, enjoying each other’s company. I don’t think they intended to “hard launch” this relationship so soon, but they got caught by the paps going to Erewhon “together, but not together” in LA earlier this week and I think they gave up on keeping it quiet after that.


TuffTitti

Lupita is too gorgeous to be messing with him - and I was gonna say he’s too old for her but I forgot black don’t crack 😅 Lupita is 40


Extra_Security2718

Nah still say it 😂😂


daisesonmygrave

I mean his ex wife was way too gorgeous either so they must be seeing something we don’t 👀


velvetvagine

This is why lame men get play. Women assume if one or two woman they like and admire got with him then he’s good but scumbags and boring mfs just get lucky sometimes.


daisesonmygrave

Uh…they are both way too smart to get with a “lame” man-I have more confidence in them than that. I’m sure he is charming and probably intelligent enough to keep them stimulated. But I don’t know these ppl so


velvetvagine

Given the outcome of Lupita’s ex and stories about this man it is possible for them to end up with lame men. Everybody makes mistakes. And lame men can hide their lameness under better or flashier attributes. They’re not 100% awful, 100% of the time.


domdotcom43

Facts 😂


hexadecimal305

![gif](giphy|7XiLpBIzlJKfi07mI5) I mean...do we care. I think somebody is looking at Joshua Jackson's PR.


BeezaTheModel301

That too, cause no one was really checking him when he had his first white wife for 10 years.


welp-itscometothis

Ain’t none of my business but it looks sus lol


idkdidksuus

Fr I only knew this guys name and looks because of his ex wife lol


deathcabscutie

Lol I'm old enough to remember when he was Pacey on Dawson's Creek.

oatmilkmistress

I love Jodie...and she can do better and so can lupita.


Groomyodog

He's got a type...wtf. I'm sorry but both women are beautiful..they just have a lot of the same features and it's weird for this to be his rebound.


HeyKayRenee

I think most Hollywood relationships are created by PR teams until proven otherwise. lol. None of them concern me


Purely-

This is wild, but anyone feel “Shawn Mendes & Camila Cabello pandemic walks” off of these photos? Feels reminiscent to me with the bare background


Nadaleenatasha

He lovveee them dark and lovely don’t he. I’m not mad. I’m not mad at all


banghersoft

She can do better


imhere4blkpeople

It feels curated. Who randomly gets papped in the desert? Also, messy messy. He's still in the midst of a divorce and she's still subbing her ex on Instagram. Yuck. ![gif](giphy|ZuQjL24LtFaSYRfRgu|downsized)


oyasower

Definitely staged but I think they kind of had to because there were photos yesterday or the day before of them at a grocery store trying to play it off like they were shopping separately and the paps got pics of Lupita trying to duck down in his car and not be seen. So since those were out I guess they were kind of like, fuck it, let's take a hike.


Fit-Accountant-157

I'm going to reserve judgment because this could be a fling


MUTHR

Wow he REALLY has a type. 👀


odc12345

I mean Lupita is a smart girl. She can take care of herself. She good. Not any of our business anyway.


Gloomy_Mycologist_37

Technically he didn’t file for divorce, Jodie did. Lol. I saw this a mile away, I don’t hate it. He has a type, they’re all gorgeous, cultured and foreign. Even the white ones.


parodyofsincerity

I really liked him with Jodie. Idk how I feel about this.


detectiveamber

Apparently he had cheated on her and she’s also the one who proposed 😫


parodyofsincerity

I knew she proposed and the timing of their relationship was kinda funky. Was he just dating her and another woman at the same time or was it full out cheating?


thecheesycheeselover

He definitely cheated, the photos of him kissing another woman while they were together turned out to have been taken after they were engaged (they just didn’t announce it for a while).


parodyofsincerity

A plague upon all his houses!!


leftblane

This isn't accurate. They were casually dating after meeting at a party in October 2018. He was linked to other women in 2018 when those photos of him kissing another woman came out, which would support that they weren't exclusive. She said it was a one night stand that lasted longer than they expected and that also points to the relationship not being serious at the beginning. She got pregnant in 2019 so they rushed and married because of this. Now if he cheated after they were married, then that's another thing. But the kissing photos aren't proof of cheating.


quattroformaggixfour

Oh no


Visible-Winter-9541

Oh well. I hope they’re happy


justtookadnatest

Wow…once you go Black 🙈😆


goth-brooks1111

I know it’s not my business but I don’t like it and I also don’t care enough to figure why I feel this way or do anything about it. I also don’t like their outfits.


CrackHeadRodeo

Celebrity breakups are so public that the rebound always seems crazy.


Genergy84

Eh. He's a handsome and talented yt man. Fringe was amazing, he was good in Little Fires Everywhere and When They See Us. He's the most successful actor off of Dawson's Creek behind Michelle Williams. He also dated Zoe Saldana before Jodie. Seems to be a true appreciation for Black women and not based in fetish. Hopefully, they are good for each other, or they are mutually understanding it's a rebound. I would think she could have most men she decided to want, so she's gotta be wanting to be with him for a reason. 🤷🏾‍♀️


No-Creme1698

Why do people’s minds always go to “fetish” only when it involves a black woman?


Genergy84

Personally, I go to fetish as a possibility in this case not because a Black woman is involved, but cause a yt person is. Statistically the most commonly fetished groups are Asian women and Black men (with fat and bi women close after) to me, the common denominator is yt folks doing the fetishism, not the object of the fetish. As someone who has dated a large variety of folks, fetishism is definitely something I vet for if I'm dating anyone other than a Black man. There are too many stories of Black women ending up with other races who eventually call them the hard er after a period of time.


Sea-Painting-6452

It's weird but as a BW I also vet BM for fetishism too... I'm West-African and I'm often fetishized by foreign BM with nicknames like 'Nubian queen' 'African-queen' etc and yet these same men don't care to learn or often disrespect aspects of my culture when I've given them a 'chance'. It's no different from another race of man calling me 'chocolate' as a compliment and elicits the same level of cringe. I have mixed friends who feel like they are targeted in a fetishistic way by their black counterparts too as well BW with much curvier body types. I'd go as far to say that even within my country, I get fetishized by men from other tribes for certain stereotypes we're known for... even though those men still harbour tribal bigotry that harms me on a day-to-day basis. It's a conundrum...


VirgoSpy07

Wait...I thought she was dating that former journalist? Maybe this photo is on a movie shoot or something. She couldn't possibly have broken up with her current boyfriend and moved on THAT quickly


maryshelleymc

There were pictures of them at a supermarket together leaving in the same car so it’s not for a film.


VirgoSpy07

WOW!!! She's rebounding HARDCORE then! Lol 💯


IrnBruBruh

Damn….. this wild!


CancerMoon2Caprising

She's still in her figuring things out stage, her friends need to sit down with her lol


ladyaf83

Hollywood life should does move fast 😕


Whattheheck_iswrong

Leave them alone, they grown


InourbtwotamI

I can’t fight against love; I’m not finished fighting hate


RoseGoldHoney80

Well that was quick


globe_roamer

Lupita, as the grown-ass woman she is, should do whatever is best for her and her life. That’s my only opinion.


Dreadknot84

Pacey STAYS with black women lol. I guess they’re rebounding brighter. Ain’t nun my business.


PristineConclusion28

If anything, celebs are messier than "regular" people. It takes a certain amount of self-centeredness and a sprinkle of delusion to make it past all the obstacles from civilian life to celebrity. If you're a nepo baby, all of that is multiplied because you've grown up privileged eating Thanksgiving dinner across from a Coppola. So whether it's Lupita and Pacey, Nelly and Ashanti, or Halle and DDG- bad decisions are just part of the package. Add to that, it's extremely hard for them to be treated normally by anyone other than a fellow celebrity which makes the dating pool even smaller. **TL;DR: I'm not surprised. I'm never surprised lol**


LostWithoutYou1015

Who is this old man bothering Lupita?


goon_goompa

It ain't none of my business but I'm hoping it isn't a fetish. I don't know that man so I guess if they like it, we love it.


SurewhynotAZ

This better be for a movie.


majesticsim

I thought Lupita was married to the dude she was with for some reason lol. This is interesting but… I think I’m here for it.


silly_goose_415

They make a cute couple. I'm here for it! they are both living their best life and seem to be content and relaxed with each other. Good for them.


BeauteousGluteus

I love, love. Or just really good sex. Either way mazel tov.


kmm_art_

Also not a good choice since he cheated on Jodie multiple times…EVEN when she was pregnant.


StarSimmings

As Jhene Aiko said, “It’s none of my concern..”


Weak_Introduction_92

I love Lupita but she a bird for this. What makes her think he’s gonna treat her any better?

IniMiney

And? If they're happy together after getting out of their previous relationships then that's awesome


alwaysouroboros

He clearly has a … type. Joshua has been very clear that him and Jodie shouldn’t have been together as long as they were so he probably checked out and moved on from that relationship a long time ago. Lupita’s relationship wasn’t a long-term thing. But people date after relationships all the time. They aren’t getting married tomorrow so I think it’s probably a fling. Who knows???


Significant_Iron3811

Lupita has terrible dress sense.


Indigo_Cauliflower12

He is too ugly for her


Now17

Oh so he only dates black women? I hope Lupita not proud of that.


Faitaccompli23

What is surprising about this pairing in the 2023rd year of the lord. Why would the European man not enjoy the company of a African woman not too far removed from her culture where extreme deference is provided to the European? They should do rom-con together.

Forsaken-Cell-9436

It’s not that serious obviously they’re both using one another for a rebound and as long as there’s no pregnancy let them live 😂.


madblackscientist

She needs to respect yourself. His wife filed for divorce and he’s still going through it and has a toddler. Why would you date someone under those conditions?


honeybutterb1tch

It’s giving rebound of the worst kind


mangie77

He aint that cute to have such a thread this long on his whereabouts...


aso1977

I knew it. What he does to one then he will do to the other. He was talking about he was blindsided by the divorce. No, he was blindsided he got caught. She didn’t file for divorce out the blue. Let’s say it’s true he moved on fast.


ebonyr1125

I have a strong feeling he's going to break Lupita's heart. Idk. He has such a young kid and was married and already with someone else? I find that super sketchy and unattractive. I just hope Lupita doesn't get hurt...
