"I'm An Actor, Of Course I've Had Gay Sex."
~ Tom Hardy

If Jake could be this honest, maybe people here would be enthusiastic about him again.

More Tom: The Rake's Progress

He's also just finished producing, co-directing and acting in a micro-budget film called Myties Dynamo which he describes bewilderingly as "a thriller about suburbia – one of those old-school, black-comic Hungarian films, a bit like Man Bites Dog".

He's also worried about his own dog, Max, who had a heart attack this week and is now on beta blockers. "I call Max 'Lives-in-Hope'," he says, "because he does – 'Can I have a biscuit?' Max asks. 'Can I go for a walk?' Inevitably the answer is no, but even if it's a rainy day he lives in hope."

Hardy's looks may be remarkable, but his brain is astounding. Talking to him is extraordinary. Though his exhaustion means that his sentences – delivered in a voice that's all gravel and cigarettes – occasionally fail, his imagination and his vocabulary never do. He seems to have a unique way of processing the world around him.

Although the 32-year-old has worked consistently for the past eight years, he made his name with two performances which showcased his remarkable physical versatility and skill as an actor.

First he shrank to nothing to portray Stuart Shorter – a homeless man who suffered from muscular dystrophy and a desperate drug habit – in the TV adaptation of the award-winning book Stuart: A Life Backwards in 2007. He then gained 2½ stone in five weeks to play Britain's most notorious prisoner, Charles Bronson, for the 2009 arthouse film Bronson, which sparked a tabloid outrage for glorifying a violent criminal. At the time it seemed unbelievable that one man could inhabit such different roles so completely. After talking to him, it somehow makes sense.

This year Gemma Arterton starred in Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time and Clash of the Titans, both of which were high profile movies with franchise potential that could keep the actress busy for the next few years.

It doesn’t look like we will be seeing a sequel for Prince of Persia, although Warner Bros. are moving forward with Clash of the Titans 2 and Arterton has revealed that she will be returning.

LOL seeing the new-old TDAT pics reminds me of what Dennis Quaid (he was in TDAT) said about kissing a man in another movie (Far from Heaven, he played a closeted gay man). He said when they shot the first take he and the other actor were going at it like linebackers and the director said "no no it's supposed to romantic!"

I'm glad there won't be a POP sequel. Most of that type of movie have awful sequels. Does anyone still care about POTC?! The only series I thought got better with every sequel was Indiana Jones (three movies) but that's rare. With no sequels POP can stand on its own as a complete movie and not be ruined by adding on stories and trying to keep it going and going and going....

This isn't GB or WDW where everything Jake can be only perfect and positive. We were right about reeking. We were right about PoP. Sometimes we are able to predict future, sometimes not, but our discussions and speculations have nothing to do with "hopeful for Jake’s failure".

:) I can't say I'm disappointed - it doesn't matter to me whether he wants to have sex with another man. I'm interested in the fact that he was as open as he was in his interview and that he did it in a casual way without trying to make a huge deal out of it. We don't see that often and I wish we did.

Well, I don't want to hear actors talking about experimenting, but not liking gay sex and not planning to do it again.

Like a lot of things, I guess it's all in how you read what he (supposedly) said. It's possible he's just being honest and he really isn't interested anymore. Should he pretend that he is? Again, it's hard to judge without really knowing what went on.

True. All things considered, I don't like his "message".

Anonymous said...

This is how you keep the message positive :)

'I've never really been attracted to men sexually, but I don't think I would be afraid of it if it happened.'

destiny said...

I don't read it as his saying gay sex sucks, just that it doesn't float his boat--or so he claims for purposes of the interview. It is possible drugs played a factor in it too, given his history.

Regardless, I think it is still great and amazing that he said it, and that he said "of course." Contrast that to RDJ, who has run away from what was probably a similar background, and claims that he was just "joking' when he claimed to be bisexual.

I think of things like this as another small crack or leak in the homophobic HW machine. If we get enough cracks, eventually the thing is going to come down.

destiny said...

'I've never really been attracted to men sexually, but I don't think I would be afraid of it if it happened.'


And then you turn around and engage in a three-year long bearding sham with a fame-whoring bitch and say things like every man needs a woman and gag when someone suggests you kiss a man.

Soory, that is not my idea of a positive message. I'll take Hardy any day over that.

Didn't Jake once say that he wouldn't mind if people thought he was bisexual? I think he said that purposely and that he was testing the waters because he was considering coming out, but the the powers that be got extremely nervous, pushed him into the closet and slapped duct tape over his mouth until he could be trusted to say the "right" things in an interview.

ffs, where in there did I say Jake was perfect? That's not what I'm implying AT ALL. IMO, he did consider coming out and got talked out of it. But how does that make him perfect? To me, it's exactly the opposite - he doesn't have the strength of his convictions to follow through and put them into action. Which makes whatever convictions he may have had at one time meaningless. I don't see how you interpreted my words as some kind of defense of Jake. It sure doesn't take much for some to get riled and blow things out of proportion :/

Anonymous said...

Handlers can't force you to do anything. But I have little doubt that they helped convince him that he could be the next big thing and make the A-list, and then told him that he wouldn't get there if he came out. They scared him striaght, so to speak. I also think that Jake and his people thought that Reeke and POP would push him to the top.

I don't think Jake is classic A-list material, and that everything that made him "Jake" was scrubbed away in that fruitless pursuit.

Looking forward to new Tom Hardy interviews, even though I think Hollywood will teach him to watch his steps.

Jake wants to be a good boy loved by all. Hes not a marionette per se. Hes a pleaser and winds up sacrificing himself for it.

The thing about sex is that its easy for Tom to say he is not interested in more sex with men in the abstract. But on the day he locks eyes with a good looking guy who sends shock waves through his body, he'll be ready again.

Anonymous said...

Well saying the PTB "pushed him into the closet and slapped duct tape over his mouth" presents Jake as a helpless victim and not the agent of his own actions.

Agencies and studios do try to control their stars but it's not the 1940s studio system any longer. Actors can be in charge of their image, message and brand. Angelina Jolie is very in charge, for example. Whether Jake got frightened by the PTB or not, it's still his ultimate decision.

destiny said...

IDK. In of itself it is a gay-positive thing to do say, especially if you know nothing about him. But it was what, over five years ago? Nobody but serious fans of Jake are going to remember that.

If he'd continued to be gay-postive and not engaged in bearding and done other things that I found offensive I would at least feel like he was trying to "do no harm" and be as open as he felt he could be.

Tom Hardy made sure that no one can call him bisexual.

True. But maybe he doesn't identify as bisexual. Having sex with both men and women does not make someone bisexual. After reading the original, full story I realized I was probably wrong to call him bisexual. But you never know, it's still Hollyweird.

And it still doesn't take away from the fact that he has admitted to sex with men and RDJ backed away from that completely.

It will be very interesting to see what Hardy says in the future.

Give the guy a break. His candor is refreshing for someone in his position. He's about to become a major leading man and to admit to being anything other than a Jake-style 'hunting for the right woman' superstraight takes guts. If the message is mixed, all the more reason to believe it was the real person speaking honestly. Kudos to Tom for not being ashamed of his fluid self.

I think that is entirely possible. But if he's in a mongamous relationship with his fiance/wife, maybe he wouldn't act on it. Maybe having found the person he wants to settle down with is a factor in how he phrased it.

jesus, I was exaggerating/joking to make a point and I wasn't being literal. My point is that I think he did consider coming out and was told in the strongest possible terms that coming out would be career suicide. Obviously, he made the decision to go along with the "recommendations" or whatever they could be called.

Would You Do...Joseph Gordon Love It!?

You'll have to forgive the headline, but we're just gaga for the guy!

We're talking, of course, about Joseph Gordon-Levitt, the erstwhile child star who's taken the good route to aging (unlike some other former child stars, cough Lindsay Lohan).

With the success of Inception (not to mention all the praise Joseph got for the clever and winning (500) Days of Summer), the 29-year-old hunk has basically solidified his celebrity status for the next few years. The guy's got the youthful looks, the sizable talent and the refreshingly down-to-earth attitude that we always look for in our Hollywood crushes...

Even though he's on the brink of 30 (which is so the new 20, we must say), JGL's one of the most promising young actors we've had the recent pleasure of drooling over.

Here's a shot of Joe looking mighty fine on the set of Premium Rush, his new flick with three other up-and-coming hotties that you should all keep on your radar: Entourage's Dania Ramirez, Sucker Punch's Jamie Chung and Broadway heartthrob Aaron Tveit.

But we digress. Just look at how scrumptious Joe's mug is. And best part, he's not even trying to be stud material. It's rare to call a young'un in Hollywood "cute" anymore, but damn, we don't think there's any other word for the little dimple-muffin.

The next step in ensuring that Gordon-Levitt's one of our mainstay crushes is entering into a romance we can track. How ‘bout it, Jojo? If things don't materialize with model-heiress Devon Aoki, how ‘bout Natalie Portman? Same age and edge and everything!

IDK - but his features have grown on me, he's got a beautiful face, some impressive scruff, and he's got a slinky sensuality about his body. And he doesn't look that much like Heath to me, just maybe a little bit around the eyes at times. He's his own man. :)

Ted also said...

Dear Ted:
Luke and Audrey (charmingly psychotic rescue cats), and myself, are a bit bothered with the whole Blind Vice thing, entertainment aside. Not in a prudish sort of way, but more along the lines of why does it matter what one's sexual preferences or personal habits are as long as it doesn't harm anyone? Why is it a "Vice"? Is this because of your preferences and/or beliefs? I'm just curious, Luke is impatience, and Audrey would love her answer with a pat of butter.
—EssDee

Dear Webster:
A vice is defined as a bad habit, or something someone engages in that's immoral compared to their definition of moral. My definition is basically anything these famous culprits are up to that they would prefer you didn't know about. For example, of course, being gay is not a vice, but the behavior some gay folks participate in to hide that fact is therein what becomes the vice. The more simplistic vices would be drugs, thievery, drunkenly screwing the cater-waiters, etc.

12:19pm, as a trysexual myself, I find you a little harsh. I think you must be an older generation person because none of my friends have your rigid attitude.

It's funny how actresses can flirt with lesbianism and no one condemns them, but when this actor does the equivalent, he is trashed. By militant gays who fear that talk of experimentation undermines the gay cause, by homophobes who now won't go see Hardy in a movie, by the Upright Citizens Brigade, who can't bear talk of sexuality period.

If the LBGT community trashes Hardy for what he said, how does that encourage other people to treat non-hetero sex as something that's no big deal? Life's not black and white. People aren't perfect, especially actors. So what if Tom Hardy said he's not gay. By owning up to some experimenting he took a few steps in the direction we want to see all people go. The direction of Everything is Okay. Kicking him for it seems counterproductive.

Pink said...

The singer was cagey about the story on her Twitter page, writing, "I just read that I'm bisexual. So 1991. Good thing people write articles about me so I can get my facts [straight]."

Pink has previously insisted that she wasn't into the idea of having a same-sex romance.

"I'm not gay so I guess I would not try a relationship with a woman," she told NOW magazine last year. "I didn't say I haven't experimented, but I love men too much to make it a permanent thing."

Janet Charlton is one of the old-time HW gossipers - she's been on PR payrolls for years and years now. The "I'm the best mother in the world" angle is classic Reese b.s.

Linked by Special K at OMG:
THE REAL REASON REESE WITHERSPOON AND JAKE GYLLENHAAL BROKE UP- NO, HE’S NOT GAY!

At last the truth comes out. An acquaintance of Reese and Jake acknowledges that they were very smitten with each other for quite awhile and seemed perfectly matched. Unfortunately, Jake had a habit that Reese could not live with, and he wouldn’t give it up. He smoked way too much. And we’re not talking nicotine here. Not only did it rub Reese the wrong way, but she worried about her children being exposed to his bad habits. So, regretfully, she moved on. Note: those of you who insist that Jake is gay are NUTS.

We don't know if Hardy is being honest or not. My opinion is that he is, yours is that he is not.

I also don't see any backpedaling. I don't know what universe you live in, but in mine a man admitting he's had sex with men, even if he says it wasn't for him, is not the norm, and hardly the kind of thing you'd expect someone in HW to say.

Unfortunately there seems to be a lot of gay men who love nothing more than to trash performers who are open in any way about the fact they are gay or may have been involved with men, and DataLounge is their temple.

I don't see someone who is "trying so hard" to establish he is straight. If he wanted to do that he shouldn't have talked about it at all.

And if he's working so hard to prove he's straight, why would he have told that story last month on Jonthan Ross about waking up next to a naked man? And saying he didn't remember what had happened?

What other actors do you think would have done that--without throwing in some wretching noises, or stories about scrambling to put on clothes and get away ewwww from that man. Seriously.

Sorry, destiny, but I don't believe for a second that Jake wants to be seen as a druggie. Especially after what happend with Heath. I don't even think he wants the subject of Reeke brought up.

Bullshit. So destiny, you believe Jake's PR is spreading stories Jake is a drug user, so they can add "the gay rumors aren't true" ??! Hell, forget drugs, why not say he's into incest or bestiality? Those two would really make people forget about gay rumors.

Maybe Ted continues out of fun? Who knows? He doesn't have to stop. Die hard BT believers write to him, then he insinuates the toddler exists and OMG members and some posters here are happy for days. Actually he's a good man for giving people what they want.

For the record I do believe Jake and Austin were more than pals for a while... before someone accuses me of being a babbler or calls me other names.

IMO, neither Reese or Jake's PR came up with such a stupid,poorly written pot story.

I agree with 2:43 PM. The baby issue would be a little more credible... for random people, at least,not for WFT2's crowd ;)

Lot's of actors admit to smoking pot including JGL, it's not a hard drug and no big deal.

It's not hurting JGL's career and it won't hurt Jake's either or J. Aniston's, Pitt's, McBongo...

We're talking about stories about being a pothead, not a heroin user.


There are admitted potheads out there and no one seems to have a problem, and some view of them are viewed as edgy or cool. Willie Nelson, Woody Harrelson, Snoop Dog and Bill Maher come to mind just off the top of my head.

Smoking pot and being a pothead (which the story implies) are two different things.

Thing is, Jake didn't admit that. He never said he used drugs. Never.

If his people wanted to make some shit up, why not adress the baby issue (you know, he wanted one, she didn't).

That said, I don't think Jake's people have anything to do with it. Some posters are so convinced there is a conspiracy and that Jake is behind averything that is written about him, it borders on paranoia.

destiny said...

I'm not saying I absolutely believe it came from Jake, I'd say odds are 50-50. Jake just seems like the one in the need for some publicity right now. Reese has the kids to use, her new movie and pictures with Pattinson, etc.

Yes Jake is in such need of publicity that he is hiding on MV all summer. *rolls eyes* If he wants attention, go to L.A. and hang out with some of your famous pals. I think we are all fans here, more or less. And I think one or two will agree with me that he's not that much of a publicity seeking maniac like some think.

I agree, 3:12. I don't think Jake is looking for publicity right now - at all. He had his fill of publicity for a long time, with Reese and then with PoP promotion. In a few months, he'll be doing promo for LAOD and I'm sure he's happy with the time off.

You're right there's no way Jake would want to be compared to someone like Woody Harrelson, who won an Independent Spirit award for best supporting actor last year for The Messenger, a role that also got him his second Oscar nomination and a lot of critical acclaim. He has a reputation for being a good actor who is not afraid to chose edgy, off-the-beaten path roles. And did I mention he has an Emmy too?

Now look back to last year and compare that to Jake's career.

Harrelson fell out of favor with HW and the public for whatever reasons and now at his age (old) he's slowly trying to work his way back in, much less up. He will NEVER be at the top again. Same with Mickey Rourke. I'm sure Jake wouldn't want to be compared to either of them, pot or not.

LOL. Yes, that's it. Jake is using Woody Harrelson as a career role model. Please. Now you're just grasping at straws because you don't want to admit you were wrong. Jake has an Oscar nom and a BAFTA and he went through his "edgy" off the beaten path phase already with Donnie Darko, Highway, etc. He's not looking for that anymore. He's looking for superstar A-list - not Emmy awards. If he wanted to continue that path, he wouldn't have done PoP.

The average age of posters here must be 50, pot is no longer a big deal.

JGL admits smoking pot in recent interview and he isn't the only one.

Of course Jake would never admit to it but I do remember when he was with Kiki people said that they both reeked of pot at times.

Jake does appear high at times, glassy-eyed, etc.

His parents used to smoke pot at parties at MV, well known. Former hippies and would give out joints at parties instead of martinis, it was hip!

Of course as they got older they stopped but you wanna bet Jake and Maggie caught a contact, LOL!!

Jake may very well be a pot/crack head, but why substitute being gay with being a pot/crack head, when he (his peeps) just could have said, they didn't agree about the baby issue? It doesn't make sense to me. It's Jake after all, the guy who seems quite concerned about his image.

I guess we have to agree to disagree.

It sounded to me like that's exactly what you were doing. You got pretty specific about Harrelson's career and in fact you made a direct comparison between Jake's career and his, which is a lot different than saying there are plenty of successful people in HW that are known pot smokers, and any ups and downs in their career have had nothing to do with that being widely known. (which may be true, but you're not going to go out of your way to plant a story about yourself that you're a pothead. That's ridiculous)

DiCaprio is equally image obsessed. In a recent interview that pretentious coke head had the nerve to say he never did drugs. When the last time it was reported he snorted coke, was on the set of Blood Diamond. I don't doubt the environment is important to him, but I strongly believe he also does it for image reasons.

JGL does have great dimples and smile, doesn't he? Maybe he does look a little bit like Heath, around the jawline and lips, eyes. Just a little. :)

Heath shouldn't have given up pot. If he had continued to smoke, he would have had no problems with anxiety and sleep.

I saw that, destiny. 5;38PM is correct about the ONTD commenters who love pothead Jake. Notice that a lot of comments are of the "I want to smoke with him" variety." Besides, I've noticed that the majority of the people at ONTD who comment on Jake posts have never really believed he was gay to begin with.

This is what Janet Charlton is saying anyway.

According to Janet, he prefers a bong on his tongue instead. Janet says this is the real reason why his relationship with Reese Witherspoon didn't work out. From Janet .......


NUTS? Kind of like what Jake likes on his.....Okay, I'll shut my fingers about that already! No more of that shit. Janet would never tell a lie, so I will update my files to say that Jake is straighter than a quick trip to the outhouse (copyright: some hillbilly who said that to me outside of a gas station in Tennessee)! And if Jakey ever needed a quit hit, I'd gladly let him take one off my bong. Anytime!

I doubt his pr contacted Charlton, but they do have to promote Jake for LAOD. It'll be interesting to see how they do it. The less impressive LAOD is as a movie, the more they'll have to do in other areas. LAOD is not generating big buzz.

"In the new movie "Inception," Leonardo DiCaprio burrows deep into the subconscious of a self-absorbed plutocrat to plant a powerful idea that will change the world. If the technology used in "Inception" were available in real life, Mr. DiCaprio might burrow into the subconscious of Hollywood plutocrats and plant these paradigm-altering ideas: Stop making movies like "Grown Ups," "Sex and the City 2," "Prince of Persia" and anything that positions Jennifer Aniston or John C. Reilly at the top of the marquee."
