OlderHayden Christensen: I Can’t Wait to Get My Hands Dirty
Genetic lottery winner Hayden Christensen takes the May 2007 cover of enRoute, Air Canada’s monthly inflight magazine.
On discovering his face was plastered all over junk food packaging: “I remember the first time I went into a convenience store after Star Wars II came out. I walked in and saw my face on a bag of chips. Then I realized my face was on every bag of chips in the store and on every pop bottle. I had to turn around and leave. I didn’t even buy the thing I’d gone in to get. It startled me.”
On not being man enough as a teen: “I was a hockey player and then a tennis player. I was embarrassed about the acting. I felt it wasn’t jock enough.”
On his recent farm acquisition: “I recently acquired a farm north of Toronto and I just bought a big excavator and a dump truck and a bobcat – construction toys. I plan to start building soon. I can’t wait to go out there and move dirt and get my hands dirty.”
On dealing with fame’s pressures: “Lifestyle has a lot to do with how often you end up in the tabloids. Daniel Day-Lewis went to Italy and became a cobbler. I went out and bought construction equipment.”
On not being worried about his career: “I take it job by job, and I enjoy my time between projects. I want to still be acting 10 years from now, but then again I don’t know… We’ll see how the farming works out.”

Very Very nice. Stay grounded Hayden.
wow wow wow
I think he is incredibly sexy.
boyish looks
reminds me of Went :)
I think he is sexy too.
Too bad he sucks at acting.
He’s such a goodlooking guy! I think it’s so great that he’s dating Rachel Bilson because they make such a beautiful couple. Hope it will last. :)
he sounds really boring…yeah living on a farm and cleaning up pig sh it….real romantic.
Annakin sucked ass! I know Lucas can’t write scripts, but Natalie Portman pulled it off w/o looking stupid (minus makeup, hair).
He’s awesome! I love him and I love it that he’s with Rachel.
Hayden>Adam
Oh please. Have a good taste for God’s sake and spare him from that “fuggling OC pint-head”!
Yah Hayden is “beautiful” but soo NOT Bilson! That was not even an overstatement but more of a blasphemy!
Rachel Bilson could only match up to someone “nerdy” like Adam Brody. Whoa… it rhymes huh lol!
When I read some enlightening articles just like this about Hayden, I “temporarily” forgot my “despise” over him coz he’s been hitting almost all of his female co-stars… Tsk… just soo unlikely…
Rachel Bilson’s features could only match up to someone “nerdy” like Adam Brody. Whoa… it rhymes huh lol!
This En Route article is just all about Hayden so QUIT on popping that Bilson as she was not even acknowledged as his co-star for his upcoming films unlike Alba & Barton. Just savor what have Hayden had to say on this article as he was not media-whoring this time around…
Well probably becoz that Rachel Bilson’s features could only match up to someone “nerdy” like Adam Brody. Whoa… it rhymes huh lol!
Nice to see Hayden ALONE this time and not seen “acting phony sweet” to his latest co-star and who’s dog/pup is lot, lot more cuter than her lol!
Thanks Jared
I love Rachel and I like Hayden
All I can say is Star Wars is already in a category of being a classic/legend in Hollywood compared to OC who’s just a fleeting fancy of those random teenage fantasies…
Hayden’s cool and whatever he has going on with Rachel is his business. I see the Trolls are out again.
My daughter LOVES this guy!! She has posters all over her room of him. He is adorable!!
Funny, her name is Rachel too.
Hayden just gets sexier by the day. And his obvious intelligence and refusal to get sucked into the Hollywood lifestyle is so refreshing, that alone makes him sexier than all the rest. But farming pigs? Come on Hayden, you’re far too gorgeous for that, lol! Love him!
Hayden’s pure hotness all the way! NICE!
Very hot pics! Thanks, Jared.
I feel so embarrassed for those here who say that Rachel isn’t pretty. Don’t you realize how ridiculous you sound and how painfully OBVIOUS it is that you are Hayden fans who are so jealous that you’re about to freakin’ burst??? Please, anyone can see that Rachel is absolutely gorgeous and Hayden are so lucky to have her.
To poster 9, kc:
What’s a pinthead???
