At the London premiere of Going the Distance, Justin told reporters (via The Gossip Girls) that working with Drew made him love her even more.
"She's so funny, insanely funny. But I also got to see a side of her during this movie, which I hadn't seen, because I'd never known her in a professional capacity," Justin explained. "I got to see how she treated the people that she's working with and it made her so much more beautiful. She's lovely to everyone — to PA's, studio people, no matter where you are in the hierarchy. It's rare."
But his experience working with Christina wasn't as positive! He had to film a full-frontal nude scene in front of her!
“I was sort of exposing myself to someone I grew up watching," Justin told reporters. "Really weird. And while we were shooting! I’m kidding.”

"And Martyn, she's got an awesome husband," he added. "He's missing a tooth but he doesn't care. He rules."
