It’s a night out for the actors! Joshua Jackson and Lupita Nyong’o were among two of the stars Janelle Monae had rocking in the audience at her latest tour stop.
On Oct. 18, the “I Like That” singer took the stage in Inglewood, California, at the YouTube Theater. The performance reportedly marked the closing night of her ‘Age of Pleasure’ tour.
And it looks like Joshua Jackson and Lupita didn’t miss out on the vibes. The two were photographed in the audience, standing next to each other. In a few photographs, Lupita and Joshua appear to be engaging in friendly conversation.
As Janelle killed the stage, Lupita, in particular, seemed to be having a time. She’s seen several times smiling and speaking with other friends — even sharing a hug with one woman.
Joshua, for the most part, was pictured giving a smize or two throughout the performance! He seemed to lean into conversation with Lupita and friends in several photos. Their immediate connection remains unclear. However, a source told The Shade Room that they arrived together and remained together throughout the show.
Joshua Jackson Seen At Concert Amid Divorce From Jodie Turner-Smith
Missing from the pictures is Joshua’s estranged wife, Jodie Turner-Smith. Jodie filed for divorce on Monday, October 2, after four years of marriage.
The “Queen & Slim” star filed the docs in Los Angeles Court — a few weeks after they separated on Sept. 13, 2023, per USA today. Joshua and Jodie share a three-year-old daughter named Juno. In the divorce documents, Jodie requested joint physical and legal custody of the child.
Joshua revealed he fell in love with Jodie “when she walked into the room” during an appearance on Andy Cohen’s “Watch What Happens Live” in April.
The reason behind their split remains unclear, but Jodie reportedly spoke to PEOPLE a month prior about the pressure of hiding her personal life after “Queen & Slim” dropped.
“It was like, I fell in love right before I started this movie that would basically change my life, and then by the time I was putting this movie out, I was pregnant, I was secretly married, and I was trying to have one moment and not let the other moment overshadow it, which is why I tried to keep it secret.”
They shared a whirlwind romance that both have previously described as a “three-night stand” turned into a long relationship.

Lupita also appeared to be at the concert without her usual plus one, boyfriend Selema Masekela. The last reports of Lupita publicly speaking on her relationship with him came in August of this year.
In an Instagram post that’s no longer available on her page, Lupita reportedly wrote:
“…the universe saw it fit to bring this sunshine human into my orbit and this day marks his introduction to life. Everyday is full of #goodenergy and reasons to dance with @selema as my favorite playmate. Happy Birthday, mi amor!”
However, the pair do not seem to be following each other on Instagram.
