WATCH: John Boyega reveals Star Wars once cost him a girlfriend

There are plenty of women who would jump at the chance to date John Boyega, but the actor revealed during an appearance on The Graham Norton Show that Star Wars actually once cost him a girlfriend.

John explained that he was trying to take the sweet dating advice Orlando Bloom – who also appeared on the show – gave him, but it didn’t work out after she found out who he is.

“I know Orlando and he gave me some advice before Star Wars VII came out, and his advice was, ‘Try and secure the love of your life before this stuff happens,'” he shared.

“She didn’t know what I did until we were driving through Times Square and she goes, ‘What do you do for a living?’ I looked up and said, ‘That!’ There’s me [on a billboard] with a [light]saber.”

Sadly, things only went downhill from there, John confessed. “I blocked her on my phone,” he said. “That picture in itself just affected her kind of stance in it.”

And Amy Schumer was quick to quip, “Once you see a guy with a huge saber, what do you do?”

Goldie Hawn meanwhile recalled a time she threw up after her date tried to kiss her, and Orlando took the opportunity to share a story about the time a fan whispered in his ear, asking, “Are you my elf?”
