According to TV Guide, when January Jones was dating Ashton Kutcher... Woah, hold up. The Mad Men star dated Ashton Kutcher? TV Guide just threw that fact out there like it's something everyone knows. Not true TV Guide, you get a jeer from me.

On-screen, Mad Men's January Jones has had to endure husband Don Draper's indiscretions. Off-screen, she had to contend with ex-boyfriend Ashton Kutcher.

"[He] was not supportive of my acting," the 31-year-old actress told GQ. "He was like, 'I don't think you're going to be good at this.'"

The Golden Globe-nominated actress dated Kutcher when she first moved to Los Angeles in hopes of transitioning from modeling to acting.

Despite Kutcher's criticism, Jones credits him for helping her career. "He only has nice things to say now — if anything, I should thank him," Jones told the magazine. "Because the minute you tell me I can't do something, that's when I'm most motivated." (TV Guide)

Is that so? Hmmmmmmmmm, well then, Ms. Jones, how about (insert line about forbidding her from sleeping with me) and we'll call it a night. See if you can resist that one.

Ps. Here are some shots of January in the new GQ. Ashton, please take off your shoe and raise your leg - this is the part where you kick yourself repeatedly.

It's no secret that I'm a huge fan of the show Mad Men and its leading lady, January Jones. We're so accustomed to seeing her dressed in conservative 1960's attire that it's easy to forget that she's not just beautiful but also has a smoking hot body, which she shows off nicely in some sexy lingerie for the May 2009 issue of GQ Magazine's UK edition. Sorry for the small images, I'll post higher quality pictures as soon as they become available.

The show Mad Men has been cleaning up at various awards shows over the past several weeks (woo-hoo!), which means January Jones and the rest of the cast have been making the rounds. People have become so accustom to seeing Ms. Jones in her 1960's attire that they may not realize she's even sexier when going with a contemporary look. Here she is arriving to the 20th Annual Producer's Guild Association Awards the other night.

If you aren't already watching Mad Men on AMC, you're doing yourself a great disservice, as it's easily one of the best show's currently on television (and superior to 99% of the movies being released in theaters). The show recently wrapped up its second season full of inspired marketing ideas, booze swilling, 60's social politics, and characters that are frequently haunted by their pasts or a big secret.

It's understandable that a brief glance at a show like Mad Men may not appeal to many viewers, particularly women. "What do I have in common with some white Madison avenue guys in suits drinking bourbon at the office?" you might ask, but the show is so much more than that. While Golden Globe winner Jon Hamm is spectacular in the lead as the handsome-but-troubled Don Draper, Mad Men often reveals its depth and complexity through its female characters, most notably January Jones as Don's wife, Betty.

Jones' work on the show's first season was overlooked because she's a disciplined enough actress to remain subtle, but in season two they gave her even more to work with and people finally seem to be taking notice. She was just nominated for a Golden Globe for best actress, and if the members of the Hollywood Foreign Press bother to watch enough episodes they'll no doubt give her the award (and possibly a second go-around for Jon Hamm in the best actor category as well).

One publication that has taken an interest in January Jones is Vanity Fair magazine, which features the beautiful Grace Kelly-esque actress in their February 2009 issue. As you can see she's quite the classic beauty, so if you haven't given Mad Men a chance, you can see a lot more of her by catching up on the first two seasons on DVD before the third season begins this summer. I'm sure Don Draper could produce a better pitch, but I guarantee you won't regret it.
