A Jason Sudeikis post that does not mention Jennifer Aniston or January Jones (well...)

Jason Sudeikis seems to be of the breed of gifted comedians who get a little boost from association with famous actresses.

The bad news is, Sudeikis never had a fling with Jennifer Aniston. The good news, he still deserves the attention.

Featured in this month’s GQ magazine, Sudeikis dons fall’s best plaids (those suits probably earn him brownie points with “Mad Men” bombshell January Jones, whom he recently started dating) and talks facial hair, his heroes and his crush on Ellen DeGeneres.

“When I’m doing something funny, in that moment I sometimes think, I’ve ripped off either Chevy Chase, Eddie Murphy, or Ellen DeGeneres,” he said.

Ellen? Really?

“I’m dead serious -- she’s my Justin Timberlake. I had a crush on her. Still do.”

This summer, Sudeikis will co-star with Aniston in “Horrible Bosses,” but first has Drew Barrymore‘s and Justin Long‘s long-distance romance comedy “Going the Distance” -- wherein he sports a sweet ‘stache.

“The mustache draws a line in the sand. I’d walk by women who would dart their eyes away immediately. Depending on what neighborhood you’re in, some guys’ eyes would linger,” he said.
