Eric Dane has received "lots" of nude photos in his Instagram DMs after portraying Cal Jacobs in "Euphoria."

On Thursday, Dane appeared on Andy Cohen's SiriusXM show, "Radio Andy," and opened up about his relationship status. While Dane, 49, confirmed he's currently single, he's more popular than ever.

"Listen, Andy, that is a dark alley that I don't go down alone," Dane said, referring to his Instagram DMs. "I get lots of dick pics."

Cohen, 54, questioned if Dane also received "stuff" from women.

"No, I get dick pics," Dane continued. "I think that guys now assume that I'm going the other way, which is fine. I've seen a lot of ugly penises. I've seen a lot of pretty ones."

Cohen added, "I thought that women must be throwing themselves at you right now. Where do you meet women?"

Dane said he never meets women because he's not on dating apps like Raya or Tinder.

"I don't," Dane told Cohen. "I feel like I don't ever meet women. Look, I'm not a dating app guy, and I think that's kind of where the majority of these meetings happen."

He added: "It's just weird. I'm from the nineties, man. I'm more of a 'hey, how are you?' kind of person."

Dane, who previously played Dr. Mark "McSteamy" Sloan on "Grey's Anatomy," stars as Cal Jacobs in the popular HBO series "Euphoria." In the series, his character struggles to accept his sexuality while presenting himself as a heterosexual family man.

Cal hits a breaking point in season two when, after getting kicked out of a bar and coming home drunk, he monologues about his sexuality and his double life in front of his family.

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter's Hilton Dresden, Dane offered insights into Cal's behavior.

"Cal is living this double life, holding up this facade of having everything on the outside, controlled and pristine, while everything on the inside is a battle of epic proportion," Dane told the outlet. "I've had struggles in my past that invited me to lead that life of secrecy. I accepted the invitation wholeheartedly. … While the circumstances specifically might not be the same, the feelings certainly are."
