"I hate that term 'in the closet,'" says Ellen DeGeneres, the aforementioned sitcom star whose all-pants wardrobe and sometimes awkward chemistry with male ingenues was provoking curiosity from fans and reporters long before her sexuality became a minor national obsession. "Until recently I hated the word lesbian too," she continues. "I've said it enough now that it doesn't bother me. But lesbian sounded like somebody with some kind of disease. I didn't like that, so I used the word gay more often."
What she hasn't been able to bring herself to do, until now, is use the word gay along with "I am" in public. Indeed, for a lot of men and women whose livelihood depends on the goodwill of millions, those may be the three scariest words in the English language.

Blogger Jake sighting in SC:
Some of you may know this already, but a movie is being filmed in Columbia starring (my favorite) Jake Gyllenhaal and (not-so-favorite) Jessica Biel. It crossed my mind the other day that because they are sort of living in a house in my neighborhood and because Columbia isn't that big, I should begin watching out for celebrities! Today, I was driving out to the golf course at Cobblestone Park in Blythewood with three of my student volunteers and we were looking at a wedding book and talking weddings. We were stopped at a light about to turn right and three people came out into the cross walk and started crossing the street. One of the girls in the car screamed, "That's Jake Gyllenhaal!" And it was. White henley, nice jeans, and aviators. And Jake Gyllenhaal! I'm embarrassed to say that all screamed like small children and there is no way he didn't hear us screaming. We could have reached out of the car windows and touched him-- just before getting arrested-- but we could have!

There’s nobody to be blamed for Jake’s behavior but Jake.
...
Exactly. I can't believe people still are all "poor jakey!!" It's ridiculous.
What if Jake has a good excuse for bearding and keeping a low profile? Like well-concealed domestic life?
"Yes, I think Jake's public reaction (lack of reaction) would be the same."
Don't agree at all. I think his lack of reaction was everything to do with trying to distance himself from BBM and Heath as much as possible. I can't imagine him trying to distance himself from anyother of his former co stars/films like that.
Trying to "distance himself from BBM and Heath" doesn't make sense to me.
What could Jake possibly gain by that? How could his "distancing" make a difference? People are going to forget about BBM? Interviewers will never bring it up?
Nailing down a spot among the stars
Shooting begins the week of April 14 in the latest big-screen adventure to make its way to Columbia.
So I did what any good neighbor would do and headed over to the State House the morning of Monday, April 14, to greet the cast and crew with an official Talk About Town welcome.
The movie, by the way, is called “Nailed.” It’s a David O. Russell film that will star Jake Gyllenhaal, Jessica Biel and Tracy Morgan. And Columbia is standing in as Washington, D.C., in this political satire, which is why filming is taking place around the State House complex.
Now, I didn’t have any candy or flowers as I wandered onto the grounds, but I did want to give Jake and Jessica and Tracy a warm greeting and a hearty handshake. Especially Jessica, who was named Esquire’s sexiest woman alive in 2005.
I’ve loved her work ever since her role in 2001’s “Summer Catch,” a cool little baseball movie about the Cape Cod League in which she played the love interest for Freddie Prinze Jr.’s character. In my opinion, it was the greatest movie ever about a summer collegiate baseball league, and I’ve seen them all.
I’ve also been to quite a few Columbia Blowfish summer collegiate games, and I’ve never seen anyone who looks like Jessica hanging around Capital City Stadium.
I briefly thought about popping my head into a trailer and inquiring into whether Jessica needed a personal assistant for the duration of the filming, but I decided against it. I figured it only could lead to some sort of pistol-whipping and a rough escort off the State House grounds.
Of course, I’m almost just as excited about the arrivals of Gyllenhaal, best known for his Oscar-nominated role in “Brokeback Mountain,” and Tracy Morgan, the former “Saturday Night Live” star who plays a big part these days in making “30 Rock” one of TV’s very best sitcoms.
It’s fun to spot some real stars over at the State House for a change. Normally, the biggest name over there is Gov. Mark Sanford, and he’s quite possibly the dullest man on the planet.
There hasn’t been this much excitement in town in a couple of years ago, when there was a little extra sizzle over the numerous sightings of Kevin Bacon, who was filming “Death Sentence.” In fact, he was spotted so frequently that by the end of filming, virtually everyone in the greater Midlands area could be linked to the actor by less than six degrees.
(I had my own brush with Bacon at — in one of those odd coincidences — the annual Mayor’s Breast Cancer Awareness Breakfast. Get it? Bacon at breakfast. Anyway, he looked at me like a cold bowl of oatmeal after we were introduced by Hootie drummer Jim Sonefeld. I didn’t even get a chance to tell him how I thought his greatest character was Fenwick in “Diner” before he turned to talk to someone far more interesting than me.)
Hopefully, “Nailed” will fare better both critically and at the box office than the violent “Death Sentence.” The plot is, well, let’s out it this way, intriguing.
In a script that features Kristin Gore, daughter of Al, as a co-writer, Jessica plays a shy Midwestern woman who accidentally gets shot in the head with a nail gun and becomes sexually uninhibited. So she heads to Washington to lobby for better health care for the oddly injured and meets up with the congressman played by Gyllenhaal.
OK, it’s not your typical boy-meets-girl story line, but I’m willing to give it a chance because it stars Jessica. (By the way, the first sighting of her that I’ve heard about came from a co-worker, who said a friend of hers spotted Jessica dining at Mo Mo’s Bistro one Saturday night.)
I had no such luck as I strolled along the Cinelease trucks and Presidential campers that lined Senate Street from Gervais to Pendleton on April 14. Even when I walked around to the back of the S.C. State Office Building — where I saw the handwritten signs that read “To Set” and “Extras Holding” — I still didn’t see Jessica, Jake or Tracy. Finally, I gave up and left.
I was afraid of running into Mark Sanford.

What could Jake possibly gain by that? How could his "distancing" make a difference?"
The drug rumors and BBM which is a gay themed romance and we all know Jake wants a straight image now are his reasons for the distancing imo.
Clearly his silence and attitude are deliberate, otherwise he would've said something, attended a memorial or anything he is Matilda's only godfather after all. Friendship or no friendship, inactive role in Matilda’s life or not he should’ve acknowledged Heath in some way for his image's sake but I guess he thought cutting all ties to Heath would protect his immaculate golden boy reputation. Imo that's what he believed this strategy will achieve but obviously it backfired.
The drug rumors and BBM which is a gay themed romance and we all know Jake wants a straight image now are his reasons for the distancing imo.
But Jake's silence has no effect because it can't change public perception nor facts:
a) Jake did play a gay cowboy
b) Jake is most recognised as gay cowboy from BBM
c) Heath is most recognised as Ennis from BBM (at least for now)
d) Jake's Oscar nomination was for BBM.
Nailed filming
...
Of course, I’m almost just as excited about the arrivals of Gyllenhaal, best known for his Oscar-nominated role in “Brokeback Mountain”...
What if Jake has a good excuse for bearding and keeping a low profile? Like well-concealed domestic life?
I don't think Jake's reasons for bearding are of romantic nature i.e. a well-concealed domestic life but career related i.e. getting new projects, so far it hasn't helped him though. It'll be more than a year between Rendition and Brothers, he needs to keep his face in the news somehow you know what they say bad publicity is better than no publicity at all and since his bearding started he's all over the rags and media in general.
As for keeping a low profile as you say he has done anything but that.
7:35 I fail to see what that quote has to do with anything, it doesn't prove that he didn't want to distance himself from BBM. As I said I think the drug rumors and BBM are the cause of his conduct, but if you have a better theory I'd be interested in hearing it. :)
7:39 AM
Just all over the rags and gossip sites, not media in general. Not even rags are too interested in Reeke.
7.39, I couldn't agree with you more! Jake has no projects. That's why I think he has settled for Nailed. Not like his previous projects : with a respected director and cast. Nailed is just shitty.Director, cast, story, all. Surely, if Jake wanted to do comedy as some seems to think, is this the best available? and as for dealing with Russell, Ha!
And if he has a well concealed domestic life, why is bearding necessary? can't he just keep it well concealed? And the constant, never ending ramming of his fauxmance down peoples' throats! sheesh!
7:35 I fail to see what that quote has to do with anything, it doesn't prove that he didn't want to distance himself from BBM.
I think Jake is smart enough not to expect that his silence could distance him from BBM or Heath. General public doesn't care that much about Jake.
At the same time, I'm sure he knew that his, Heath's and BBM fans would "hear" him loud and clear.
Nailed is just shitty.Director, cast, story
Could turn out well though!
8.09, I wouldn't hold my breath!
Part of his silence could be his clean image. As you know there are rumors about Heath's drug use. And if people thought they were close they'd wonder if Jake is into drugs too. Well accoding to Ted, TT is no stranger to coke. ;) To be fair I believe most of Hollywood is on some kind of drug though.
Probably not only the drugs are the issue, I think it's also to avoid gay rumors. Like how close were they really?
I think Jake didn't expect many co-stars of Heath's to pay tribute to him and he thought in this case no one will notice he didn't say anything too. But it came differently and now it's totally noticebale he didn't say anything. Not only that what leaves a bad impression is the shopping trip in Shoho shortly after Heath's death and other unfortunate sightings before and after. If you don't want to say anything fine, but please keep a low profile.
8:01 It doesn't make sense, why would he want only Heath's and BBM fans to "hear" him loud and clear with the risk of angering and alienating them but not the large public he’s trying to attract?
The BBM fans are a big chunk of his fanbase. Why give them this big fu*k you if not for the drug free straight image he wants to project to the general public?
7:09 AM so why do you think he just completely ignored Heath's passing, then?
"I think Jake didn't expect many co-stars of Heath's to pay tribute to him and he thought in this case no one will notice he didn't say anything too."
He must be pretty thick if he thought that! How could he not get that Heath's colleagues would want to pay their respects to him??
He must be pretty thick if he thought that! How could he not get that Heath's colleagues would want to pay their respects to him??
Don't tell me that you weren't surprised about the outpouring of grief and tributes for Heath? I was!
Not expecting Heath's peers and friends to pay their respects to him can't be the reason behind his behavior. He can't be THAT dumb.
So far most of the interest in Nailed seems to be tied to Jessica Biel. Jake is rapidly losing any of the star power he had after BBM.
Not expecting Heath's peers and friends to pay their respects to him can't be the reason behind his behavior. He can't be THAT dumb.
Don't you get it? Heath supposedly hung out with Lohan, he definitely hung out with this one creepy Olsen twin, the drug rumors... Jake is still fresh and vulnerable in the business. Some are more scared for their reputation some less. He's a bit of a wuss. He probably talked to the parents and Michelle though. But of course it would have been nice to pay public tribute, so that the public could also learn about the good side of Heath, not only the LiLo, Mary Kate, drug things.
It's great that Heath's other colleagues and family and friends did it!
But of course it would have been nice to pay public tribute, so that the public could also learn about the good side of Heath, not only the LiLo, Mary Kate, drug things.
LOL Heath didn't need Jake's words for the public to know how amazing he was. The people who paid tributes to him are way more important and genuine than Jake and what they said about Heath was very touching. Jake’s silence hasn’t affected Heath’s image and integrity but his own.
8:01 It doesn't make sense, why would he want only Heath's and BBM fans to "hear" him loud and clear with the risk of angering and alienating them but not the large public he’s trying to attract?
My point: Jake knows that only fans (not general public) will take notice, care about and remember his reaction to Heath's death.
So far most of the interest in Nailed seems to be tied to Jessica Biel.
This is not good. Jessica Biel can't act, she's hot though.
The Illusionist Movie Review
Paul Giamatti as Chief Inspector Uhl and Rufus Sewell as the villainous Crown Prince are both excellent in their supporting roles. But truly the surprising performance in the film comes from Jessica Biel as Sophie. Known for her roles in 7th Heaven and action movies (Blade: Trinity, Stealth), this is Biel’s first shot at playing a character of this ilk and she absolutely nails it [LOL!]. Biel’s character Sophie needs to come across as a strong, intelligent woman and that’s exactly how Biel plays her.
http://movies.about.com/od/theillusionist/fr/illusionist0817.htm
They wouldn't have cast Biel if she was that crappy!
I'm sorry but I've seen the Illusionist and she wasn't good and her accent was lol worthy.
But that critic said Jessica absolutely nailed it!
LOL!
Maybe she'll also nail Jake. They will be spending a lot of time together. LOL!
^^^ They are both gay.
I think he's bi, so it could happen.
Jake is way hotter than Justin and Jessica is way hotter than Reese.
Doesn't matter if Jessica is good or bad. The fact that she's garnering the most attention shows how much Jake's star has faded.
"The whole thing is an existential meditation," Mr. Russell explained in one of several interviews through the making of the film [I Heart Huckabees].
Ha, I managed to find something I like about Russell - let's hope Nailed filming isn't going to be a non-event like Brothers.
"American actress Natalie Portman is to star in a new big screen adaptation of Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights. Directed by John Maybury Portman will play Catherine Earnshaw who embarks on an ill-fated love affair with Heathcliff.
Portman beat off the likes of Lindsay Lohan and English actress Keira Knightley for the role, it's rumoured that Maybury initially wanted an English actress for the role.
The role of Heathcliff is yet to be cast but it's believed that Irish actor Colin Farrell is favourite for the part.
Luke MacFarlane’s Gay
Our minds are totally blown. Actor Luke MacFarlane, who plays gay on Brothers and Sisters, came out as a living, breathing homosexual!
While people have been gossiping about his bedroom antics for years, MacFarlane didn’t feel ready until now - when he’s a regular on a hit television drama.
I don’t know what will happen professionally … that is the fear, but I guess I can’t really be concerned about what will happen, because it’s my truth. … There is this desire in L.A. to wonder who you are and what’s been blaring for me for the last three years is how can I be most authentic to myself - so this is the first time I am speaking about it in this way.
MacFarlane’s revelation should come as no surprise. He’s previously been seen trotting about with fellow ABC actor, TR Knight. Not to mention his drive-by with Wentworth Miller… During the course of his interview, MacFarlane also discusses his television character’s forthcoming gay marriage - and it’s cultural importance:
Most importantly, in portraying gay people, the more we realize it’s just like portraying anybody else and, gay marriage, it’s not about two people being gay, it’s about two people who love each other and who have decided to commit to each other for the exact same reasons any other couple would get married. Hopefully, the more that becomes part of the cultural awareness it won’t be…
And it makes for great ratings!
Luke MacFarlane’s Gay
^ Good for him!
Good luck, Luke! :)
Luke MacFarlane:
"Though no secret to his family and close friends, Macfarlane has, until now, been guarded about his personal life as a gay man. Over lunch in Los Angeles, where he lives, he initially insists that he has no concerns about his public revelation - but a few seconds later he is shifting nervously in his chair, and concedes that he is "terrified."
"I don't know what will happen professionally ... that is the fear, but I guess I can't really be concerned about what will happen, because it's my truth."
Thanks q for the news, another fine gay actor to have on a great series.
7:09 AM so why do you think he just completely ignored Heath's passing, then?
I don't know.
Who knows, maybe one day we'll find out.
And if he has a well concealed domestic life, why is bearding necessary? can't he just keep it well concealed?
Two birds, one stone? Get a "girlfriend" (safe beard) after a long time, play straight, get some publicity and distract the public from gay rumors.
Sitting on the patio of an exclusive Hollywood hotel, wearing a grey T-shirt and red jacket, Macfarlane says he does intend to keep a certain amount of his life private. Asked if he is currently in a relationship, his answer is quick: "That is my personal life. That is where I draw the difference." He does allow though, that he would like to be married some day.
Hm ... Could Luke and Went still be together?
Someone earlier said that OMG is deleting Heath posts. I think it's maybe for the better. Lately if you criticize Jake some fans like to make Heath look bad to somehow justify Jake's behaviour. I noticed the hostility towards Heath increased a bit, I think it's a result of fans questioning the political correctness of Jake's behaviour after Heath's death, though there is no reason why they shouldn't be allowed to do that.
I have not seen any Heath posts deleted at OMG, only anon and/or nasty posts, as per their policy.
Reese looked better when she was with Ryan, for being so happy with Jake she sure looks a lot worse since she's with him.
I'm still uncertain if I'll jump on the fauxmance bandwagon!
I have not seen any Heath posts deleted at OMG, only anon and/or nasty posts, as per their policy.
True. And they would not allow any bashing of WFT2 either.
I'm still uncertain if I'll jump on the fauxmance bandwagon!
What's stopping you?
Just a mention?
Something to Bitch About
Love how the L.A. Times decides to ram women for their plastic surgery selections right after we did the same taking Simon Cowell to task for picking on poor Carly and Ramiele’s appearances while letting sacred scalpel cow Dolly Parton off diss-free. That’s pretty effed up. And apparently, so, too, thinks the venerable Times, as it's choosing to weigh in now, as well, on women like Priscilla Presley and how they inject/tuck themselves into unrecognizable contortions. We hear the copycat paper’s also working on a piece on closeted male movie stars. What’s the byline going to be, Toothy Tile?

Heath Ledger Warned About 'Dangerous' Behavior 2 Years Ago
Heath Ledger's tragic death earlier this year came as a surprise to the public, but the warning bells were ringing two years ago during the filming of the latest "Batman" flick, “The Dark Knight."
According to an on-set source, Ledger was advised to seek professional help for his personal problems, but turned to the Joker role to mask his psychological woes.
"Heath refused to talk to anyone out-of-character," the source said. "If you tried to communicate with him normally instead of the Joker, he would just ignore you. "He would often come to the set to hang out even on his days off in character, freaking everyone out," the source continued. "Toward the end of filming, he was warned by people that he’d gone too far, but it was almost like he couldn't connect with those who cared for him anymore."
Ledger reportedly locked himself in an apartment for an entire month to fully become the crazed, criminal-minded character, and we're told by another source on the set of "The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus" that Heath couldn't "snap out of it" and basically "lost sense" of who he was.
"Heath couldn't be himself anymore and that terrified him," said the source, adding that the controversies surrounding his will, alleged cocaine usage and possible love child prove that no matter how “removed” Heath tried to be from the limelight, he could never escape the constant hearsay.
“When you have people talking s—t about you all the time, of course it's hard to stay levelheaded and remember who you really are,” the insider said.
Pop Tarts has also been told that Warner Bros. may be considering cutting scenes from the new film that show the Joker in a body bag after audiences got upset during a prescreening.
"It's highly likely that that will be modified," an insider said.
Reps from Warner Bros. were not available for comment.

"Don't tell me that you weren't surprised about the outpouring of grief and tributes for Heath? I was!"
You were suprised by the outpouring of grief and tributes for a young guy who died unexpectedly? What planet do you live on??
LOL Heath didn't need Jake's words for the public to know how amazing he was. The people who paid tributes to him are way more important and genuine than Jake and what they said about Heath was very touching. Jake’s silence hasn’t affected Heath’s image and integrity but his own.

Should Prince of Persia lead be a Persian?
Jake Gyllenhaal to Raise Swords as Prince of Persia - Talk About BULL
Hollywood rumor mill has Jake Gyllenhaal setup for the lead in the 2009 Disney and Jerry Bruckheimer video-game movie adaption “Prince of Persia: Sands of Time.”
Talk about BULL. If one thing should be obvious from the title of the game is that the star should be Persian or at least Middle Eastern. This isn’t the first video game movie casting rumor for the star of “Brokeback Mountain.” Gyllenhaal is also up for the role of Billy Batson in the DC Comics film Shazam! (Captain Marvel), as well as Spider-Man 4 should Tobey Maguire step down.
Maybe there are no Middle Eastern actors out there? WRONG. How about Sayid Jarrah, actor Naveen Andrews, from “Lost?” Now that’s one bad ass star that I’d love to see star as the Prince of Persia. He already has a huge cult following from his role on “Lost.” And, you know what? When you look at him, he looks like he could be the Prince of Persia (at least moreso than Gyllenhaal).
What do you think should star as the Prince of Persia?
Prince of Persia
10:53 what bs!
You should complain to the Fox News. I know they are not the most reliable source - would they fabricate the story?
I wasn't complaining but after the love child, the heroin addict, the suicide and other bs I don't believe this fabrication.
"The source said, the source continued"- how's it different from the People, OK, Us sources which we all know are made up? Um no I don't think so.
Why would they fabricate the story, let me see maybe because sensationalism sells very well and Heath is a great cash cow. No that can't be it, they would never! ::)
Article reader comment:
I worked with Heath Ledger on his last film shoot 'The Imaginarium...' and finished filming with him into the small hours 20th January. Heath was completely professional and hard working and was always prepared to give more. Heath had no problem being himself off set and chilled out with other crew members in between takes. Heath was battling flu, and dressed like Pierrot in white satin on a bitterly cold January night on a moonlit London street and his performance is pure, enchanting magic

Heath Ledger used Joker to mask personal problems
Gay TV Team Gets Hitched
It’s a blessed day for gay twosome Colin McAllister and Justin Ryan. The Scottish homosexuals and their public relations team announced today that the men sealed the nuptial deal. From the very excited press release:
Colin McAllister and Justin Ryan confirmed today that, after 22 years together, they have married. The dynamic Scottish design duo were secretly betrothed at the Chelsea Registry office in central London, England.
It was only after experiencing life in Canada that the couple decided to make their long standing relationship official.
“I’m not sure if we would have decided to get married if we hadn’t moved to, and fallen in love with Canada. After a year of living in Toronto, filming Home Heist, it became clear to us that it was time to tie the knot. Canada is such a progressive nation, so welcoming and open-mindedly liberal about gay marriage, that we felt thoroughly inspired,” says Ryan.
McAllister added, “Previously every time someone asked us about getting married, I’d joke that even after such a long time I still wasn’t sure if Justin was the right man! Let’s just say that this year, I’m SURE.”
The service was kept a closely guarded secret, and while the couple’s mothers were both aware of the impending nuptials and gave their blessings, the ceremony was attended by just two close friends, Elaine and George Ponte, who acted as witnesses. Afterward the happy couple and their two witnesses celebrated at The Wolseley on Piccadilly, a favourite London celebrity hangout.
Well, congratulations to you both, gents, even though we’ve never, ever heard of you…
P.S. Comment: Just because their show doesn’t air in these United States of America doesn’t mean they are not famous to millions throughout the UK, Canada and countless other countries in worldwide syndication.

"I suspect that Luke is straight but in denial. When he went to Julliard, all those theater people probably had an influence on him and convinced him he was gay. Deep down inside, though, he is very straight. He just hasn't come to terms with it yet. It may take him years to accept his straightness. I think that's why Went hangs around with him. Went is trying to coax Luke into accepting and embracing his straightness. Went is his bridge to the straight community."

Tori Spelling: Kiss the Bride!
Tori Spelling stars in the new romantic comedy Kiss the Bride, out in select theaters this Friday.
Here’s a synopsis of the film: When Matt (Philipp Karner) receives an invitation to high school best friend Ryan’s (James O’Shea) wedding he’s surprised - especially that Ryan is marrying a woman! Matt plans to rescue his former love from whatever "she-devil" has trapped him into this huge mistake.
On the other hand, Ryan’s perky fiancé Alex (Spelling) takes quite the liking to Matt. As Matt tries to rekindle the old flame, Ryan is intent on putting out any sparks. Matt must deal with "his new best friend" Alex, the two families, and a hometown he thought he’d left entirely in the past. The film proves the boundaries of love are never constant.
Kiss the Bride rolls out into select theaters nationwide this Friday, April 18. Tori’s husband, Dean McDermott, Amber Benson (Tara Maclay on Buffy The Vampire Slayer) and Garrett M. Brown (the father on Roswell) also co-star.
Kiss The Bride
Interesting BI - smart guy! :)
This A list actor. 95% of the time film. Single and allegedly never married. This is the first year he used this accountant and when he was reviewing the forms he noticed that he was listed as single on the tax forms. Our actor then proceeded to tell the accountant that the actor has been married for many years. The fact that he has only seen his foreign wife once in the interim did not change the fact that he was married.
Our actor apparently does send money sometimes to his wife, but apparently does so in his corporate name. The accountant got the feeling that the wife actually has no idea who she is actually married to. Our actor meanwhile loves the deduction that comes with being married. It apparently is the one thing he really enjoys about being married. He also uses it as an excuse when a woman tries to pressure him into marriage. He explains to prospective future brides that although he would love to get married to them he is unfortunately already married and the process for divorce will take a year or two. In the meantime why not just live together or be girlfriend and boyfriend. Invariably the relationship dies out before the divorce becomes final. The actor never starts the paperwork and has never been challenged by the IRS about being married. They must not read the tabloids.

"Grey's Anatomy" casts a high school leatherhead and "Road Rules" vet as its two gay soldiers
Ever-scooptastic Michael Ausiello has learned who will be playing the two gay soldiers who are set to share a steamy kiss on an upcoming episode of Grey's Anatomy: Benny Ciaramello (who plays Santiago on Friday Night Lights) and David Giuntoli (best known as a castmember of Road Rules: South Pacific). It's good to see that Grey's is bringing a gay storyline to the screen (with a very romantic kiss, even), especially given that they haven't done much in the way of gay inclusion since, oh, winning a GLAAD award for their Where the Boys Are episode forever ago. Huzzah to them.

Pee-wee’s Big SC Adventure
PAUL REUBENS JOINS CAST OF ‘NAILED’ WITH BIEL, GYLLENHAAL
I was quite surprised Tuesday when I was wandering around the Statehouse — which is right now doubling as the set of Nailed starring Jessica Biel and Jake Gyllenhaal — and I bumped into none other than Paul Reubens, known to many as Pee-wee Herman.
Unbeknownst to me, the good folks at the Internet Movie Database, and pretty much everyone else in the world, he has a role in the film. Which is crazy because I had no idea the guy was still alive, much less acting in movies. And much, much less acting in this movie.
When I saw Reubens on the set, he and the cast were between takes at State Treasurer Converse Chellis‘ office. He wouldn’t give me any inside details about the film, but did say he was playing a Congressional staffer.
That doesn’t explain the fanny pack, Bluetooth or pocket pens, but it does explain why he was seen with Biel at Mo Mo’s Bistro in Columbia on Saturday night, reportedly the cast’s first night in town.
And sadly, while talking to Reubens was cool, I didn’t get to meet the oh-so-hot Jessica Biel.
Anyway, here are a few shots from the set and one from Saturday sent by a friend. It’s pretty distant, but you can see Reubens sitting next to Biel (the chick in the white hat). Click the thumbnail for full size:
Pee-wee Herman in Nailed
Wow Nailed sounds better and better. lol
"On July 26, 1991, Reubens was arrested in Sarasota, Florida for masturbating publicly in an adult theater. The news media went into a frenzy and the scandal marked the near-death of the character "Pee-wee Herman," reducing both the actor and the persona to an ubiquitous punchline. Although the series Pee-wee's Playhouse had already ended by that time, CBS reacted by dropping its reruns from their lineup. Reubens made a deal with the Sarasota County court: in exchange for a fine and producing a few PSAs, he was given a clean record.
Reubens was arrested again in 2002 in connection with an investigation involving child pornography. Public news stories concerning his case cast doubt upon the suggestion that Reubens intentionally acquired child pornography, as he stated that he was a collector of "erotic artwork" and that he had a sizable collection of vintage erotica with samples dating back to the 18th century. On March 19, 2004, child pornography charges against him were dropped by Los Angeles City Attorney Rocky Delgadillo after Reubens pleaded guilty to a separate "misdemeanor obscenity" charge."

Christian TV Youth Host Comes Out As Gay
Azariah Southworth’s a brave man. After a year-and-a-half of hosting Christian youth show The Remix, Southworth came out as a real life homosexual. Honesty, he says, trumps any old paycheck:
This has been a long time coming. I’m in a place where I’m at peace with my faith, friends, family and more importantly myself. I know this will end my career in Christian television, but I must now live my life openly and honestly with everyone. This is my reason for doing this.
…
I know I will be cut off from many within the Christian community, and if so, then they didn’t get the point of the life of Christ. I believe by me living my life honestly and authentically now, I am able to be a better person and a better Christian. We all know there are so many other gay people in the Christian industry; they’re just all scared. I was scared, but now I’m no longer afraid.
We bet those “other gay people” are shitting their pants right now wondering whether their secrets will be slipped.
Azariah Southworth
My thoughts exactly 4.04!
Nailed will rock!
Azariah Southworth is a very brave young man. I am in awe of him right now. It sounds like this wonderful young man has a strong support among his family and friends. It will be interesting to see how Christain TV handles this one. I will follow it closely. Thanks for the info dirt.
Pee-wee Herman in Nailed? Oh boy!
Call me crazy but that made me like Nailed even more - maybe wet, dark and wild Jake still exists.
Jake wouldn't have signed on if the script was crap. After BBM he has plenty of good offers.
Please don't mention Rendition, movies about current political issues rarely win with critics and audiences.
It will be interesting to see how Christain TV handles this one.
I expect them to try to sweep it under the carpet.
Jessica seems cool but be honest, you KNOW Jake was not at that party and that his socializing with the cast (unless it's Keener who he knows) will be very minimal. He's a total self-entitled snob just like his gf. They're perfect for one another.
Reese is Jake's beard.
Maybe Jake isn't the person we thought he was, but I don't believe for a second he could be as bad as Reese.

He had nothing ( better than Nailed) going on, of course he would have signed on.

Why not? both their careers are sliding and they're trying to claw their way up.

And you know this how? I didn't realise you were BFF with him.
(though i dunno, some people who work in the state house said he [Jake] was sort of rude and such)
Uh-oh! Someone described Jake as being less than perfect? That must not gone down well the gyllenbabblebobbleheads. Wonder how much hate mail they sent?
"but I don't believe for a second he could be as bad as Reese."

BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE 2008
For actor Cheyenne Jackson, the epitome of tall (6'4"!), dark and handsome, the small-town to Broadway dream had a few detours. Born and raised in Idaho in a house his father built with no indoor plumbing (they used an outhouse), Jackson moved first to the less daunting and bordering city of Spokane, Washington when he was 18. Later, in Seattle, he managed to become a successful ad executive by day (without a college degree) while performing theater at night. He says a shocking death in the family is what ultimately prompted his move to "the big city" -- at 26, Jackson quit his fancy job, sold his new car and moved into a stuffy hotel in Times Square. "I had one contact in New York. I called him and he got me an audition for an agent. My very first audition was for Thoroughly Modern Millie on Broadway, and I booked it. It was like the universe's way of saying, 'This is where you need to be.'"
Currently starring in Xanadu, this year's surprise musical hit based on the 1980 film, Jackson says he's ready to do something different. "I would like to do something old fashioned and cool. Everyone in New York knows me as the high-singing pop guy, but I do have a pretty good range."

Because it was same old Jake for years (before and after BBM) and that old Jake seemed natural and genuine.
Cheyenne’s New Gig
Pop-eye loving Cheyenne Jackson’s about to get a new film credit.
The handsome homo has been cast in director Chuck Griffith’s Shifting the Canvas. The flick, according to the press people, “tells the story about a group of artists living in Williamsburg, Brooklyn who struggle to maintain a rather dysfunctional family of friends in a post-9/11 world challenged by gentrification, deception and sterilization.” Is that sterilization as in white-washing or neutering, both of which are scary.
Griffith’s apparently thrilled to be working with Cheyenne, “Cheyenne is the caliber of actor that a director looks for in commanding a scene…I am both humbled and excited to work with this gifted actor of stage and screen.” No word on how Griffith feels about the rest of the cast, including Kids In The Hall’s Scott Thompson and Gedde Watanabe, who starred as Long Duk Dong in Sixteen Candles.
By the way, the press release informs us of a “unique twist:” “…the openly gay actor will be playing Jens, a straight Ivy League type.”
Absolutely shocking!
Cheyenne’s New Gig
Jake wouldn't have signed on if the script was crap. ... Please don't mention Rendition ...
There's nothing wrong with the Rendition script, it got great reviews from the movie professionals. Unfortunately that doesn’t guarantee a great movie.
Azariah Southworth
Azariah Southworth is the host of a popular Christian TV show called The Remix. The show, a Christian music program, originates in Nashville and is seen in upwards of 128 million homes. Southworth, who is also the show’s producer, has helped launch, er, “major” Christian music acts “such as Jars of Clay, Avalon, Superchick, Building 429 and Rachael Lampa.”
Azariah Southworth just came out of the closet. Good for him, bad for his show.
“I know I will be cut off from many within the Christian community, and if so, then they didn’t get the point of the life of Christ. I believe by me living my life honestly and authentically now, I am able to be a better person and a better Christian. We all know there are so many other gay people in the Christian industry; they’re just all scared. I was scared, but now I’m no longer afraid,” notes Southworth.
No longer afraid—but likely to be unemployed soon.
The Stranger
4:15 AM, it's pretty rich for you to call someone else a troll. You constantly troll this board. If you want to worship Jake constantly, perhaps you should go somewhere else!
Calling out Jake on his less than perfect behavior is not trolling. Jake's actions over this past year have made him very unlikable in my eyes. I'd read reports before about him seeming very full of himself and even rude but I always defended him. Now I'm starting to think that he's just like every other HW star. He puts on the big smile and charm as part of his act. It's not the person he really is.
"Calling out Jake on his less than perfect behavior is not trolling."
No one ever said it was.
Dear 8:42 AM,
please read the posts more carefully.
Thank you!
Dear 8:58 AM,
I can read just fine.
Thank you!
Great! Then you noticed that 4:15 AM post has nothing to do with worshiping Jake.

“Jakey vs Shelfy?
Shelf Ass Jessica Biel somehow conned her way into a starring role opposite Jake Gyllenhaal in Nailed, the first screenplay co-penned by Kristin Gore. No wonder she’s so happily smug…although my sources say, she needs to be careful.
Jakey, you see, is not a fan of her antics. Specifically her paparazzi antics. Especially since inviting the paps around her these days will inevitably expose HIM. And he and Reese like to control their own exposure on their own terms, particularly when it comes to the children.
Shelfy’s approach is more like a free for all – a buffet restaurant where selection is plentiful but quality is compromised. Shelfy’s publicist will call every agency to ensure a large pap presence. Jake and Reese on the other hand like to play favourites. It’s less obvious that way, see?
Will Jakey and Shelfy go head to head on set? Stay tuned…
Shooting is now underway – here’s Shelfy at work yesterday looking…kinda rough.
The body, as usual, is tight and hermy. Her rump, of course, is ridiculous. But Shelfy with bangs and no makeup isn’t exactly the effortless beauty they’re constantly trying to ram down our throats.”
lainey
Especially since inviting the paps around her these days will inevitably expose HIM.
Expose HIM on the movie set? What is she talking about?
Even Lainey knows that Reeke is all about carefully controlled PR.
Yes, but what that has to do with the way Jessica uses paparazzi? Jake and Jessica both need Nailed promotion.
Jake only wants the paps around when it's useful to him to promote his fauxmance. He doesn't want them to catch him when he's living his real life.
It's not his real / private life - it's a job, a movie set.
Lainey:
…although my sources say, she needs to be careful
Lainey, you know what you can do with your sources lainey? LOL!
The paps won't limit themselves to the movie set. They'll follow Jake and Jessica around when the movie isn't filming. Movie set shots aren't their main focus.
Maybe Reese is already upset that the paps may get some compromising photos of Jake and Jessica. She can't afford more gossip and innuendo making her look as though she's been left for another woman again. lol!
Wow, more great news about Cheyenne! I think he's going to be a talent to watch. :)
They'll follow Jake and Jessica around when the movie isn't filming. Movie set shots aren't their main focus.
That shouldn't be a problem!
Jake can hang out with James Marsden, Paul Reubens and oher boys on the set and everyone will be happy!
There are already some not flattering reports about Jake's behavior not only on the set but with some people that have encountered him away from the set, rude (set) ignoring people off the set, of course these are only some reports, some say that he was nice when they ran into him, but let's face it, there have been some past reports about Jake's behavior on set going back to Highway: grumpy, spoiled, unpreparred, clashes with the Director, etc. And since he and Reese like to control everything, paps showing up uninvited around Jessica, where let's face it, she is the star of this film, must be making Jake more grumpy than usual. Imagine, playing second banana to Biel.
Lainey has posted before on Jake's whiny, unprofessional behavior, a side that most are not aware of.
Jake can hang out with James Marsden, Paul Reubens and oher boys on the set and everyone will be happy!
I'm sure he thinks he's too good for them.

I don’t have the links and I’m sorry but I have no time to look for the actual stories but here it is:

- had a fall out with Peter Saarsgard (??) while shooting Jarhead
- changed the TDAT script because he simply wouldn’t say some lines
- the ruckus with Mark Ruffalo and the complaining and whining about David Fincher for making him OMG… work!
- complaining that Heath got most of the praise and was more critically acclaimed for BBM than him
- fighting with Tobey for the make-up artist

Did it occur to you that she's actually under his employment? Of course she's nice to him and hugs him (with paps around). And Pedro is smitten with Jake so it's like the word of a fanboy so excuse me if I won't jump up and down and believe every word he says.
LMAO at the hags, Freudian slip, hey? ;)
- he shoved a rifle in one of his Jarhead co-stars’ mouth and chipped his tooth and didn’t speak to him for 2-3 weeks
It was Jake's mouth & tooth:
"Jake Gyllenhall got so upset whe he chipped his tooth on the set of his current movie that he took it out of one of his co-stars. The actor, who is dating actress Kirsten Dunst, revealed that he turned violent after losing his temper while filming his new movie 'Jarhead'
He admitted that it took a long while for the victim of his anger, who will not be named, forgave him for what he had done.
Jake said; "For some reason, I just got so angry that I had chipped my tooth and just started hitting him and we didn't talk for a month after that".
But the director, Sam Mendes, is defending the young star, saying that everyones tempers were high because of the rough filming conditions. He told the Calgary Sun newspaper; "It's 115 degrees; you're away from trees, cars, everything. You can't hear anything because the winds blowing. You don't have your clothes, your car, your girlfriend, anything.
And I really think Jake forgot he was acting a lot of times".

No, of course not, but four of the six things I’ve mentioned at 12:00 are actual facts (with the correction to the Jarhead incident which seems worse now that I’ve read the story at 12:43 but that’s only my opinion) not speculation or rumors. The other two who knows?

ACTOR’S ANTICS DELAY FILMING OF “NAILED” IN SOUTH CAROLINA
FITSNews - April 17, 2008 - We know, it’s hard to imagine someone this manly throwing a hissy-fit, but according to our source on the set of the movie “Nailed,” that’s exactly what actor Jake Gyllenhaal did yesterday, causing the crew to shut down filming early and spend an additional day shooting at the South Carolina State House.
“He was complaining that the room was too small, complaining about the temperature, complaining about his chair,” our source says. “It was like watching a two-year old have a meltdown every five minutes.”
According to a source in the S.C. Treasurer’s Office, Gyllenhaal’s co-star Jessica Biel has by contrast been “delightfully friendly,” chatting up onlookers and even turning a few cartwheels on the State House grounds the other day.
Sources also tell us that S.C. Gov. Mark Sanford has invited the film’s stars to dine at the Governor’s Mansion with his family while they are in town, although he reportedly hasn’t received a reply yet.
One other thing, we can’t confirm or deny rumors that Sanford plans to pitch Gyllenhaal based on the “Brokeback Fishing Trip” the governor took four years ago with State Sen. Chip Campsen.
Oh Jake you are such a disappointment.
We know, it’s hard to imagine someone this manly throwing a hissy-fit, but according to our source on the set of the movie “Nailed,”...
Mr Russell wasn't on the movie set?

Total bullshit IMO
well ok to please you
jake you re so BAAAAAAAAAAAD LOL
Sounds like things we've heard about Jake in the past.
What things exactly?
If you follow the link of "manly" on the hissy-fit page, you come to this article:
"REESE AND JAKE AREN’T FOOLING ANYBODY
FITSNews - October 24, 2007 - You know, we’re one less-than-satisfying mocha away from removing Reese Witherspoon from our “About Us” page. Seriously, people, it’s obvious she moved to South Carolina just to get close to Sic Willie, but for some reason she couldn’t handle his on-again, off-again Rachel McAdams thing. Then came Sic’s strange Maggie Gyllenhaal fetish, which has clearly pushed her over the edge. How do we know? Because Witherspoon is now officially “dating” Gyllenhaal’s brother, Jake, who is, um, how do we put this … gay. Or as Tyler Durden says, “super super gay.”
From some British paper we learn:
The pair met on set of the upcoming movie ‘Rendition’ and have now taken their romance public - they were spotted holding hands and canoodling during a romantic trip to Rome. Witherspoon, 31, whose divorce from former husband Ryan Phillippe was finalized this month, had previously denied a romance with the Brokeback Mountain star. The pair first began dating around March (of) this year, although they were careful to avoid being photographed together.
Clearly the takeaway from this story is that Sic Willie is an enchanting devil who will drive world famous actresses to elaborate ends in a futile effort to conceal their insatiable lust for his body and near-chemical dependence on his emotional availability. That, and the fact that Jake Gyllenhaal is gay. Canoodling? Canoodling! Say no more …"
He's not baaaaaad he's just a spoilt brat.
... causing the crew to shut down filming early and spend an additional day shooting at the South Carolina State House.
Yeah, right!
I can see Russell rescheduling shooting because Jake is complaining about the room. LOL!
well i really think he is bi
oh jake you break my heart
you re a monster !!!!!
Total bullshit IMO

LOL lame site this Fitnews
That smell rubbish sorry
Ah the forever excuse making babblers arrived. I was wondering when they’ll show their pretty faces at WFT2 lol
There are reports from SC that Jake isn't always nice to fans there. Don't know if I believe the hissy fit story though, I probably would, if he wasn't working with this particular director. I guess you can never know though.
Jess and Jake seem to have something in common, the calling the papz whenever it pleases them. Unfortunately it doesn't always please Jake when it pleases Jess.
Well, when stars collide...
The problems of the rich and the famous.
Sometimes quite ridiculous, don't you think?
Jake's a big crybaby. We have documented proof of that from the Zodiac filming and from his hissy fit during the BBM awards season.
We have documented proof of that from the Zodiac filming...
What proof?

“Nailed” Is Not Going So Well
April 17, 2008
JAMES CAAN QUITS FILM, WILL HAVE TO BE RECAST
FITSNews - April 17, 2008 - We’re not sure how we turned into Access Hollywood today, but our source on the set of the movie “Nailed” just keeps on giving … and the lastest news is this: For the first time in a career spanning four decades and over ninety movies, actor James Caan has walked off the set of one of his films …
Citing differences with director David O. Russell, Caan left the set of the film last night and will have to be recast.
Hopefully, we’ll be able to bring you some news that has nothing whatsoever to do with this cursed movie soon …

Huh? Someone (also a woman) was holding the umbrella for him too at the BAFTA... what's the big deal???
Could be he's really fussy, could be the make-up artist insists, could be the woman holding the umbrella insists...
i think there are lots of unfounded gossips about the filming because they are doing the shootings in public and I was kind of taken aback by how "excited" the locals seem to be for having movie stars in town.
“He was complaining that the room was too small, complaining about the temperature, complaining about his chair,” our source says. “It was like watching a two-year old have a meltdown every five minutes.”

That's a hissy-fit? Since when?
No, it's rather diva-like!
Just diva-like, no hissy-fit?
Isn't that false advertising?
This is getting better and better.
Jake throwing a hissy fit, Russell and Caan fighting. Though the source for both stories is this "Fitsnews" site...I agree with R 3:52 this all could be BS.
I'll wait for more credible sources to confirm this.
Jake is going to have so much fun during the Nailed shoot. lol
What a whining little brat.
Jake is the most perfect co-star. I learned so much from him about everything! You're all just jealous.
So sweet of Austin to remind us how nice Jake can be!
That boy is a diva, always throwing hissy-fits on set.
wasn't Jake a whiny ass on the Jarhead set as well? This seems to be a major part of his personality. He was probably really spoilt as a child and never got out of that mindset.
And since he and Reese like to control everything, paps showing up uninvited around Jessica, where let's face it, she is the star of this film, must be making Jake more grumpy than usual. Imagine, playing second banana to Biel.
Lainey has posted before on Jake's whiny, unprofessional behavior, a side that most are not aware of.
Exactly!
Think Jake is not a happy camper in SC cause he now realizes how crappy and what a huge bomb this movie will be and he can't get out of his contract. He may have to go into overdrive with the "happy couple" pap pics to counter act all this bad PR.
8:07 PM
Read at 12:43 PM. Yes he was.
ha, ha, Jake's lawyers might contact fitsnews to make it all right again!
The gnome from Rome couldn't be happy. lol!
So why do you all care if Jake is a jerk? Aren't there other actors worthy of your admiration? I thought you all were no longer Jake fans. Why not support out gay actors?
^ WTF?? Why are YOU here? I didn't realise that this was a support Perfect Jake or Else blog.
He was probably really spoilt as a child and never got out of that mindset.

I've read those interviews and reports too but didn't see anything diva about it:
Zodiac - Jake did what Fincher asked from him but refused to kiss his ass like Mark did. Fincher did that Interview with Jake so there are no bad feelings about it.
Jarhead - Jake lost his temper after chipping the tooth, what's diva about it?

Anderson Cooper's Hot Ex Boyfriend revealed
Everyone knows Anderson Cooper is gay, but no one knows who he dated until now.
Our friends in the gay mafia here in Hollywood (Yes, it’s real) recently introduced us to the very hot JD ORDONEZ, Anderson Cooper’s ex boyfriend at a party!!! JD’s 22,educated, and is a MARINE MAMMAL TRAINER/BARTENEDER/STUDENT. Isn’t he adorable? Plus, JD’s totally “take home to mother” material.
We like to consider ourselves on the outskirts of the gay mafia, but after this posting we may have to go into hiding in our walk in closet. The only rule about the gay mafia….is that you DO NOT TALK about the gay mafia or it’s members.
The two dated for about two months in NYC before Anderson gave him the boot. JD’s now roaming around Los Angeles, soaking up the sun. But don’t ask him about his Anderson affair, JD is known to be mum on the details.
Even his Myspace page is set to private! So here is all of his MySpace info cut & pasted.

12:52 Please don't tell us what to do. Yawn
3.54 you might not like to call it "diva" would "unprofessional" suit you better?
Since you asked ... :)
Zodiac - I hate ass kissers so I don't have any problems with Jake's comments.
Jarhead - sounds like an anger outburst to me. I would call it a nasty accident.
"Jake Gyllenhall got so upset whe he chipped his tooth on the set of his current movie that he took it out of one of his co-stars. ...
He admitted that it took a long while for the victim of his anger, who will not be named, forgave him for what he had done.
He chucked a fit at his fellow actor for no reason. Completely unprofessional, diva behaviour.
Jake did what Fincher asked from him but refused to kiss his ass like Mark did.
No, he whined to the press about the big meanie director being mean to him. Even Jake admitted afterwards that he was being immature. Funny that Jake himself can recognise that he has flaws but you gyllenbabblebobbleheads can't.
Tori Spelling relishes role as gay icon
Even in Hollywood where celebrity bashing is a standard practice, Tori Spelling has endured more than her share of mockery. But among one set of fans, the former "Beverly Hills 90210" star is adored.
Gay men, it seems, can't get enough of Tori Spelling, and she hopes to make them happy in romantic comedy "Kiss the Bride," her new movie debuting on Friday in major U.S. cities.
"I'm a huge fan of gays," Spelling told Reuters. "They love me; I love them. They consider me kind of a gay icon, which they've labeled me as."
Spelling began acting as a child on shows such as "The Love Boat" and "Fantasy Island," which were produced by her famous father Aaron Spelling. But it was in the role of kindhearted teen Donna Martin on "90210" that Spelling gained her own measure of fame and earned a fan base.
For years, popular wisdom had it that the only reason she was hired for "90210" was because her dad's company was behind the show, but she has proven adept not only at acting but also writing a book and being a mom. In other words, Tori Spelling is no daddy's girl. But she is beloved by many gay men, and the gay theme "was probably one of the top things that made me want to do the movie," she said about "Kiss the Bride."
Spelling plays the fiancee of a boy named Ryan, who had a homosexual fling with a friend in high school. When the friend, Matt, learns Spelling's character Alex is set to marry his long-ago lover, he turns up to convince Ryan he is making a mistake by marrying a woman.

Tori Spelling loves gays
3.54,
Zodiac - I hate ass kissers too but in this instance it's just not professional for an actor to criticize his director to the press. Nothing to do with ass kissing.
Jarhead - Yes it was a nasty accident and Jake lost control badly. Very immature/unprofessional behavior on his part.
Jake comes across as boyish and immature. People like that are usually called a diva or unprofessional in their behaviour.
No, he whined to the press about the big meanie director being mean to him. Even Jake admitted afterwards that he was being immature. Funny that Jake himself can recognise that he has flaws but you gyllenbabblebobbleheads can't.
It's not about Jake being flawless. It's about not making things up.
Lights, Bogeyman, Action
"For Jake Gyllenhaal, who stars in the movie as Mr. Graysmith, Mr. Fincher’s attentiveness was a mixed blessing.
Mr. Gyllenhaal said he came from a collaborative filmmaking family: “We share ideas, and we incorporate those ideas.” He added: “David knows what he wants, and he’s very clear about what he wants, and he’s very, very, very smart. But sometimes we’d do a lot of takes, and he’d turn, and he would say, because he had a computer there” — the movie was shot digitally — “ ‘Delete the last 10 takes.’ And as an actor that’s very hard to hear.”
Mr. Gyllenhaal, 26, partly blamed culture shock; he’d just finished “Jarhead” for Sam Mendes, who gave him a much freer rein. Mr. Gyllenhaal stressed that he admired and liked Mr. Fincher personally. And he noted that other members of the “Zodiac” cast had far more experience, adding: “I wish I could’ve had the maturity to be like: ‘I know what he wants. He wants the best out of me.’ ”
That said, Mr. Gyllenhaal spoke candidly about his frustration with Mr. Fincher’s degree of control over his performance.
“What’s so wonderful about movies is, you get your shot,” he said. “They even call it a shot. The stakes are high. You get your chance to prove what you can do. You get a take, 5 takes, 10 takes. Some places, 90 takes. But there is a stopping point. There’s a point at which you go, ‘That’s what we have to work with.’ But we would reshoot things. So there came a point where I would say, well, what do I do? Where’s the risk?”
Told of Mr. Gyllenhaal’s comments, Mr. Fincher half-jokingly said, “I hate earnestness in performance,” adding, “Usually by Take 17 the earnestness is gone.” But half-joking aside, he said that collaboration “has to come from a place of deep knowledge.” While he had no objections to having fun, he said, “When you go to your job, is it supposed to be fun, or are you supposed to get stuff done?”
He later called back and said he “adored the cast” of “Zodiac” and felt “lucky to have them all,” but was “totally shocked” by Mr. Gyllenhaal’s remark about reshoots."

Jake talked about his experience with Fincher. Nothing wrong with that.
6.31, the why was David Fincher "totally shocked" by Jake's remarks??
UV what the hell are you doing here? Isn't ONTD enough, too bad Caan leaving the set doesn't cancel out Jakes' hissy fit. Now scram back to Gyllenbabble.
6.27, what part exactly was made up?

Don't remember reading more about it.
Are YOU shocked by Jake's remarks?

"No, he whined to the press about the big meanie director being mean to him."
No, I'm not shocked. but then again I'm not David Fincher so it doesn't count. Just think he's unprofessional to make the comment.
Ultraviolet give it up with the excusing and justification already nobody’s buying it anyway.
