Dear Ted:
Since L. Armstrong and J. Gyllenhaal are friends, would you say Lance is to Kate Hudson what Jake is to Reese Witherspoon? Becky Bain did a great job in your absence, but still... welcome back!
Sofia
Buenos Aires, Argentina
Dear Duh:
Since J dates R and L dates K then, uh, yeah I would say so. And ain’t B2 great?

Friends, Flames and Foes
June 4, 2008
And now a word about Jake Gyllenhaal, eternal boyish wonder, and Reese Witherspoon, Jen’s ol’ Friends sis. Cannot tell you how many folks have contacted, written, phoned, chased me down at screenings, Gelson’s, parties, just to find out what the ef’s up with these two. I’ve said it before, I’ll blab it again: nothing. Nothing save brilliance, mind you. I mean, Clooney, the hardest dude to nab in H'wood, could learn from this dude Gyllenhaal.
"They’re very, very good friends," remarked a Githerspoon source who knows the two beauties well. "They’re helping each other out right now through some rough spots, that’s it."
Jeez, what could be rougher than being young and gorgeous, unattached and gifted with stunning hair? What do these two have to complain about? OK, well Reese’s failed marriage with Ryan, for starters. And then, I suppose, if you were truly desperate, you could add Rendition to Jakey’s problematic past. But that’s really stretching it. My hunch? They’re supergood BFFs who don’t mind in the least when every People photog worth his or her anal-probe camera happens to hunt them down at myriad coffee clutches and Beverly Hills mansions. They’ll ride this one as long as they see fit. The gushing, hyperventilating press only makes them both more viable, far more than on their own.
Remember, Reese didn’t get that Oscar for nuthin’.

Isn't the picture of Jake in the AE post the same one that used to be on the header of the original WFT?
1:42 that's wright, this way they want to signal us they know Jake is Toothy. LOL
There is a TB working for After Elton. lol
Today After Elton, tomorrow ...World Domination !
Found this interview for The Patriot. He's looking hot.

Heath seemed to be calmer in his older interviews.
"There is a TB working for After Elton. lol"
What's a TB?
Since J dates R and L dates K then, uh, yeah I would say so. And ain’t B2 great?
He could just mock Sofia, like well duh. And the rest who believes in TT can interprete more into what he said.

They should have used this picture of Jake for AE. Drool:

This one is better :)

^^^ Ok, ok, that was a bad joke.
This one is creepy.
Jake, don't do that!
"This one is creepy."
That's an outtake from a BBM photoshoot at the Toronto film festival. I read while the cast was posing for pícs, they found out they won the Golden Lion in Venice. They were all very happy. Afterwards at the press conference Ang Lee called to personally tell they won. You can tell, especially by the look on Jake's face while posing for photos shortly before the conference began how happy he was.
What drives you mad?
Control freaks, power-hungry people and dishonesty.
But isn't that a pretty good description of Hollywood?
(Laughs) Yeah, and it just drives me mad.

Prince of Persia: The Game of the Movie of the Game
Try to wrap your head around this: Ubisoft is planning a game adaptation of the film adaptation of the game Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time.
It's not enough that we're getting a brand spanking new cel-shaded next-gen Prince of Persia and even spinoff titles for the Wii and DS.
Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot has revealed that next year's Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time -- that's the Bruckheimer-produced, Jake Gyllenhaal-starring film adaption set for release in 2009 -- will get its own game adaptation.
The film itself features a script by the original game's creator Jordan Mechner. We still know very little about the game adaption of the film, but it's interesting to note that the movie is itself based on the plot of one of the games. Even a week after their Ubidays media event, Ubisoft is still all over the news. The latest covers the studio's expansion into other media productions, including word of a new animated series. Furthermore, Guillemot has also revealed that the company is sitting on a $1.2 billion war chest, to be used in potential acquisitions.
It's probably a good time to be a Ubisoft share-holder right now, although Prince of Persia fans are probably confused as all hell.

It sounds like an allusion to losing his gay fanbase ("a large gay following") when he went bearding in Rome.
Q: Can we just talk about sex?
Doctor Parnassus: My clinical speculatum! I practice a lot on my own. The brain is really my second favorite organ. You know, the Archimedes’ principle supports the theory that a man immersed in the liquid of male love experiences an upward thrust equal to the weight of women he displaces.
Q: Must we be cryptic? You’re saying gay love can boost a career?
Doctor Parnassus: Mr Gyllenhaal once had a large gay following, but Jake ducked into a Roman alleyway and lost him.
It seems they count on PoP to be a big hit.
Video games are big business.
Mr Gyllenhaal once had a large gay following, but Jake ducked into a Roman alleyway and lost him.
Why "him"? Why does he refer to the "fanbase" as "him"?
As for losing his gay fanbase, it didn't happen. There is still very much interest in him.
Why "him"? Why does he refer to the "fanbase" as "him"?

Well then... ;)
I know everyone here hates Perez Hilton, but since this guy is the king of innuendos and outs just about everyone in Hollywood, why does he keep insisting Jake is straight and with Reese?
Just Jared "keeps insisting" and keeps selling Reeke. Perez is "pro-Reeke".
Heath had an amazingly sexy voice!
I know, just hearing his voice and accent gives me shivers. So sexy.
It's a joke - Dr. P is using "large gay following" as in one large man following, ducked into an alleyway, and lost him. Just as a play on words "large gay following". I wouldn't go looking for anything deep in it, I think Dr. P's sessions are meant as entertainment only, and it is very clever, but it's not the Da Vinci Code.
Perez doesn't irritate A listers. He calls out D listers, a few C listers and one or two on the B list.
An A listers publicist could make him disappear especially if he fucked with a CAA client or someone the studios had a lot of money riding on. There is no way he would "out" Jake even if he had the information he needed to do it.
And Just Jared loves everybody. Does he ever post anything hateful? His pictures are paid for by the publicists who plant things on his site. He's just a sweet little puppet.
And don't get me started on the shilltastic Popsugar. That site puts so much ad spyware on your computer that it take forever for the screens to change. I hope people get that the site is run by a major corporation to sell products.
I once had a large straight following, and I was able to lose him in the crowd, so I can sympathize. ;)

This is how I read it too.
Barrowman gets tested for gayness
Speaking of John Barrowman, Torchwood.tv is claiming the hunky actor made a trip to UCLA's Human Genetics Lab to take part in a study on "the scientific search for what makes people gay." Barrowman supposedly had his DNA sampled and spent time in an MRI machine that measured his reactions to nude pictures of both sexes. The study is being filmed by the BBC for a three-part documentary airing in August and also involved Barrowman being reunited with his first high-school girlfriend. Nothing like stirring up memories of your awkward teenage hetero fumblings to officially confirm that you're a fag.
http://www.popnography.com/2008/06/quickies-barrow.html
It may be Dr. P's professional opinion that as well as the surface meaning, he may want to "lose" the large gay following in the larger sense too. I don't believe that, and will seek a second opinion. ;)
I'm surprised you haven't read Ted tonight--there's an item in there about Jake/Reese.
He's saying they're good friends but absolutely nothing else.
Maybe because he has said it several time before. Friends saying that they were just friends helping each other out, blah,blah.
The only difference this time is that he isn't giving a timetable for to end like he did before and actually called what they are doing brilliant, when he laughed at their efforts earlier and suggested that Cloney take some pointers when he suggested a few months back that Jake should take some pointers from travolta.
Anne Hathaway on the death of her Brokeback Mountain costar Heath Ledger: “That was tough. I hesitate to talk about Heath. He was special in so many ways. I can tell you that I feel I cared about him more than I actually knew him. It was devastating, and the people who were closest to him should talk about him in their own time.”
I really like the way she said that. It makes me feel better for caring so much as a fan.
"
He's saying they're good friends but absolutely nothing else."
Exactly. Friends helping each other during times of crisis. When he referred to the charade as brilliant, he also implicitly confirmed that getting PoP was the purpose of the relationship.
As usual, Ted himself was brilliant.
"The only difference this time is that he isn't giving a timetable for to end "
Ted doesn't take risk this time
Ted is not really nasty towards Reeke.
"Why would Jake acknowledge this poll? He didn't last year when he came in first in the same poll.
Actors don't care about shit like thst, just the silly fangirls do."
Simply because they got funny little tongue-in-cheek responses from some of the other actors. Jake is too up-tight about the gay label to do the same IMO.
witty little comments from some of the other actors in the poll

'Nailed' dodges bullet with funding deal
David O. Russell film to resume filming Wednesday
June 3, 2008, 08:12 PM
David O. Russell's political comedy "Nailed" will resume filming Wednesday thanks to a late-breaking financing deal with Comerica Bank and the film's financier, Capitol Films. Key cast members, including Jake Gyllenhaal, Jessica Biel and Catherine Keener, were en route to the South Carolina set Tuesday to begin shooting the next day. But the ultimate future of the film from the economically troubled Capitol remains uncertain.
...
Reyes had hoped to close the deal with Comerica on May 27, so that filming could start up again May 29. But he said Monday that it had taken longer than expected to get the deal together. He declined to say how much the financing was for or what the projected budget now is for the film.
As of Monday, Reyes said, the film was funded, payroll companies received deposits and SAG, IATSE and the Teamsters members were in the clear to start back to work.
...
The production switched to a Thursday-Monday production schedule following the Memorial Day weekend holiday.

I know everyone here hates Perez Hilton, but since this guy is the king of innuendos and outs just about everyone in Hollywood, why does he keep insisting Jake is straight and with Reese?
Perez does not insist Jake is straight. He says that Reeke are cute together (not untrue). He still calls Jake 'GyllenHO' because Jake is a famewhore, bless his needy little heart.
Perez is smart. He disses mainly C and D list celebs and hits the B+ and A list only when they do something the majority of the public condemns anyway.
His 'outing' of the closeted is limited to low-power individuals, TV stars like Wentworth Miller, or faded A-listers like Jodie Foster, whose status is an open secret.
Perez knows what side his bread gets buttered on.
If his website hits start falling, he may have to pull some big reveals out of his ass. But unless the celebs get caught on camera, that's tough to do. No picture, no story. So in the meantime, Perez plays it safe. Smart biznessman!
Anne Hathaway on the death of her Brokeback Mountain costar Heath Ledger: “That was tough. I hesitate to talk about Heath. He was special in so many ways. I can tell you that I feel I cared about him more than I actually knew him. It was devastating, and the people who were closest to him should talk about him in their own time.”
Thanks for posting. Do you happen to have a link for this?
"Bullshit- they look more like business partners than friends"
Well Ted think they are "supergood BFF"
Don't you believe Ted??
Perez said the "jake is gay" is a joke but it's his opinion of course. I agree he doesnt' take so much risk about outing "big" stars, Ted is more brave , remember Matt, Ben,Olando and viggo and many others!!!
There are so many closeted actors ,disgusting.
Ben kingsley and Alfred Molina are attached to POP
Good choices
JJackson asked Perez about the baby tile story , weird!
I read Ted item and and somethinks puzzle me:
they are separatively "unattached"
they are "supergood friends"
" it will last as long as they see fit"
ok in short it will last LOL
Anne Hathaway on the death of her Brokeback Mountain costar Heath Ledger: “That was tough. I hesitate to talk about Heath. He was special in so many ways. I can tell you that I feel I cared about him more than I actually knew him. It was devastating, and the people who were closest to him should talk about him in their own time.
He seemed to be a genuinely nice guy, that's why so many care about him still.
The closest to him already payed tribute, unless she means Jake. I doubt Anne and Heath saw each other anymore, maybe she just assumes him and Jake still stayed close? That's what she can't know, neither can we!
You can add to the list :
"Cloony can learn from Gyllenhaal"!!
"They’re supergood BFFs" looking at their body language you sure could have fooled me....
"if you were truly desperate, you could add Rendition to Jakey’s problematic past. But that’s really stretching it"
No it ain't
"every People photog worth his or her anal-probe camera happens to hunt them down"
C'mon Ted you know damn well they are all photo ops
What? has Reeke PR bought Ted?!
Well Ted think they are "supergood BFF"
Don't you believe Ted??
Ted is being nice and that's nice :)
First Ted says she's bossy and his friends hate her, now they get along super and are BFF's?
I guess if you really want to believe Ted, you believe everything.
Friends, Flames and Foes
John Mayer's spreading the love all over the Hell-Ay, even more so on his own blog, quickly trumping Reese and Jake at their own PDA game.
...
That's What Friends Are For
...
And now a word about Jake Gyllenhaal, eternal boyish wonder, and Reese Witherspoon, Jen’s ol’ Friends sis. Cannot tell you how many folks have contacted, written, phoned, chased me down at screenings, Gelson’s, parties, just to find out what the ef’s up with these two. I’ve said it before, I’ll blab it again: nothing. Nothing save brilliance, mind you. I mean, Clooney , the hardest dude to nab in H'wood, could learn from this dude Gyllenhaal.
“They’re very, very good friends,” remarked a Githerspoon source who knows the two beauties well. “They’re helping each other out right now through some rough spots, that’s it.”
Jeez, what could be rougher than being young and gorgeous, unattached and gifted with stunning hair? What do these two have to complain about? OK, well Reese’s failed marriage with Ryan, for starters. And then, I suppose, if you were truly desperate, you could add Rendition to Jakey’s problematic past. But that’s really stretching it. My hunch? They’re supergood BFFs who don’t mind in the least when every People photog worth his or her anal-probe camera happens to hunt them down at myriad coffee clutches and Beverly Hills mansions. They’ll ride this one as long as they see fit. The gushing, hyperventilating press only makes them both more viable, far more than on their own.
Remember, Reese didn’t get that Oscar for nuthin’.
"Ted is being nice and that's nice"
sorry it's weird from him
I am starting to think he likes them LOL
“They’re very, very good friends,” remarked a Githerspoon source who knows the two beauties well.
i am not disturbed by the idea of them being friends but that seems the case for some here.
As for Ted he tells what he wants, he s just a gossip columnist after all.
I heard Ted likes reese
but Reese "georgous"???????
Well ted please LOL
sorry it's weird from him
I am starting to think he likes them LOL
Weird how?
Ted is repeating that Reeke is fake, that Reese is faking this "romance" to distruct us from her failed marriage. Nothing that Jake or Reese would like to hear.
i am not disturbed by the idea of them being friends but that seems the case for some here.
Friends - yes.
Very, very good friends - we have seen Jake with friends and very, very good freinds. I don't see it in Reeke pictures. Do you?
He's backtracking, like I've told you some time ago.
Nonsense. You should read what he said:
"Cannot tell you how many folks have contacted, written, phoned, chased me down at screenings, Gelson’s, parties, just to find out what the ef’s up with these two. I’ve said it before, I’ll blab it again: nothing.
Ted doesn't say Reeke is real...but what's going on with the paps chasing them (!), Clooney can learn from Gyllenhaal(!!) BFFs, blah, blah?
And Reese young and gorgeous? Now that's stretching it. lol!
"The gushing, hyperventilating press only makes them both more viable, far more than on their own."
What's with the "unattached" comment? didn't Ted say Toothy's bf is a fox just a month ago?
Unless of course that's another little fib like all the little fibs that seem to litter this article.
I guess Jake is "attached" in his private life and "unattached" in his public life!!
Phew! the tangled web we weave.....
Perey - He says that Reeke are cute together (not untrue).
LOL! What a joke!
What's with the "unattached" comment? didn't Ted say Toothy's bf is a fox just a month ago?
Ted said that Reese is unattached, not Jake: "Jeez, what could be rougher than being young and gorgeous, unattached and gifted with stunning hair?"
First Ted says she's bossy and his friends hate her, now they get along super and are BFF's?
Today Ted didn't say anything that would contradict "she's bossy and his friends hate her".
Reese is not young and gorgeous, gifted with stunning hair !
What the hell? Is Ted friggin' blind?
Why do you expect Ted to trash Reese or any other woman he writes about?
I would love to see it, but Ted is a Southern Gentleman ;)
8:25 You must be joking. Ted has no problem trashing anyone male, female it doesn't matter. Remember when he trashed Heath the next day he died? I just think it's very strange, he could spare us the Reese compliments because frankly there’re making me gag.
I was talking about trashing someone's LOOK. It's not the first time Ted's complementing Reese's nonexistent good looks.
Remember when he trashed Heath the next day he died?
I remember! But he couldn't stand Heath, whereas he seems to be fond of Jake. That's the little difference.
But he couldn't stand Heath, whereas he seems to be fond of Jake. That's the little difference.
So what? He must compliment Jake's beard because he's fond of Jake? LOL that makes so much sense, not.
So what? He must compliment Jake's beard because he's fond of Jake? LOL that makes so much sense, not.
Maybe he likes Reese too?
"whereas he seems to be fond of Jake."
Jake who is gay, closeted and bearding!
Maybe he likes Reese too?
Nobody likes Reese unless they're paid to.
Jake who is gay, closeted and bearding!
Well maybe... but he still seems to like him!
Nobody likes Reese unless they're paid to.
You keep forgeting that Ted calls Reese a liar, someone in a phony public romance.
Maybe he likes Reese too?
Ted is talking about her looks and acting skills. Don't see what Ted's opinion about Reese has to do with anything.
From DL about Afterelton top 100, question was if it was a poll:
No not in the traditional sense. It was more like a write in ballot. Only one ballot from each IP address accepted. Unlike People where a small group of people pick and choose, this list is all on the readers of afterelton.
That means "fangirls" couldn't vote for Jake multiple times like one or two posters here suggested. I believe most of the votes came from gay men and probably some from straight females.
Jake has a huge gay following, like it or not!
Very, very good friends is a faaaaar cry from an engagement any day now, I would say.
New Ted's post - my summary:
Ted repeated that Reeke is fake (I’ve said it before, I’ll blab it again: nothing), but works well (Nothing save brilliance, mind you).
His source said they are friends helping each other out.
They are doing it for PR (don’t mind in the least when every People photog) knowing that Reeke would attract more attention than they ever would on their own (The gushing, hyperventilating press only makes them both more viable, far more than on their own).
Jake has a huge gay following, like it or not!
I've always wondered why, if so many gay fans thought he was gay and bearding, which implies he's ashamed to admit he's gay, why has he still so many gay fans and why not Tom Cruise for instanc?
I think it's because just a minority believes those rumors, a very vocal one!
What rumors?
What rumors?
The rumors that Ted C. spreads!
sorry it's weird from him
I am starting to think he likes them LOL
No, Ted's latest comment RIPS Reeke.
He says that Jake and Reese are friends, not lovers, and that they are playing to the press. He reminds us that Reese is an ACTRESS, he stresses that they are hooked up to help each other over rough spots (innuendo about what young-and-beautiful Jake's "rough spots" could be...for anyone who is sarcasm-challenged, Ted means the gay rumors, which affect Jake's BO bankability with Minivan Moms). And then he adds that "they’ll ride this one as long as they see fit," suggesting it's a calculated decision, and not a spontaneous love affair.
Yep, ain't no reins on this one. ((sarcasm))
^^Spot on, that's what I read from it too.
They’ll ride this one as long as they see fit.
Fer how long? Just hope it doesn't go on for four effin' years. ;)
"Jake has a huge gay following, like it or not!"
Shame he doesn't deserve it unlike the other four guys on the top 5 who are out and proud.
The rumors that Ted C. spreads!
I thought so, but wanted to make sure. lol
Just two things: gay rumors about Jake started long before Ted. Ted is not the only one spreading those rumors.
"In this week's Entertainment Weekly (June 6th), Billy Crystal shares a story about Jake during the filming of "City Slickers."
"'He was always performing,' remembers Crystal. 'He would sing from South Pacific and we'd all go, 'He's gay, he's going to be gay.'"
Jake has a huge gay following, like it or not!
Isn't it funny how Jake has a huge gay fanbase and tons of fangirls who don't flock to see his movies. lol

LOL
Most of the gays i know either don't know who he is or don't think he is gay at all.
When i read comments about him on serious gayblog , many seem to joke about those rumours.
so yes it's possible many gayfans still love him.
When i read comments about him on serious gayblog , many seem to joke about those rumours.
No, YOU are joking. lol
Well the truth is the majority don't care of his private life
he can do what he wants with reese
i don't care anymore
i want Austin
so yes it's possible many gayfans still love him ...
... but not because they think Jake is straight.
Gay people and gay fans don't hate or dislake closeted actors per se.
They understand that coming out is hard and that gay actors are discriminated in Hollywood.
You can't have him 11:42 AM.
'Nailed' gets financing, but will it finish?
From staff reports
"Nailed" is scheduled to resume filming today in Columbia after its third work stoppage in a month, but a trade publication report raises questions there's enough money to get the political satire staring Jake Gyllenhaal and Jessica Biel into theaters.
A late-breaking financing deal with Comerica Bank and the film's financier, Capitol Films, has gotten cameras rolling again after the third union stoppage over pay, The Hollywood Reporter reported last Tuesday. The movie halted filming on May 22. Forty-six checks for the “Nailed” production bounced due to insufficient funds, according to the film’s bankers quoted by Variety in a story last week.
While the Comerica financing will help meet the film's $25 million budget and costs from a week of missed shooting days and union penalties, sources quoted by The Hollywood Reporter said they don't know if there's enough financing to last through post-production. The shoot must end June 22 to keep its cast members. "One more shutdown will kill the movie," according to a film executive quoted by The Hollywood Reporter. Capitol's head of business affairs, Ray Reyes, is quoted as saying there are two weeks left of filming in South Carolina before the production moves to Washington.
Filming last stopped nearly two weeks ago after the union representing stage crews ordered its second walk-off after its members were not getting paid. The actors union ordered its members off the set for a weekend on May 9 because not enough money was put into accounts used to pay actors. Reyes told The Hollywood Reporter that he had hoped to close the deal with Comerica so filming could resume last week but that putting the arrangement together took longer than expected.

JJackson asked Perez about the baby tile story , weird!
Huh? When? Where?
Didn't JJackson called Austin's father (parents?) and asked him about the baby?
Apr 20, 2006
hey, P-Bitch! I live in LA to and I've heard LOTS of stuff about Jake-y and being gay (but really bisexual, as if theirs a diff).
A guy friend of mine that's str8 does valet parking for xtra $ sometimes, and he SWEARS ON HIS LIFE AND ON HIS MAMMA'S GRAVE that about 2 years ago he saw Jake kissing this older dude when the stopped the car and didn't think anyone had come up yet to get his keys. Hours later when they came out Jake signed an autograph for my friend but said no when he asked if he could take a picture with his cell. My friend kept saying that if he had had his cell out and could have gotten a pic of that man and Jake he wouldn't ever probably have to work again 'cause he would sell it. I told him that was wrong, but he would have done it anyway.
I totally believe my friend cause he doesn't have a problem with gay people and he didn't have a reason to make it up. He' isn't the kind to do that.

wehohag, is this story part of the toothy tiles story? Jake and male in parking lot of mall? just don't see it, but could be true. people keep say gay, but I read he was bi-sexual.
----- Posted by: thom | Apr 21, 2006 5:53:04 PM
I don't think it is part of the toothy stuff because the guy who is my friend that saw it saw it back when we were in all high school and that was almost 2 yrs. ago. I've never read all the toothy things but I thought it was all just some gossip colum.
My guy friend would never lie about this. He just isn't the kind to do that. He has a sister that I went to school with at an all girls school and he went to an all boys school wiht my brother. Their at the same college now so I will ask him if it's part of all that toothy stuff, but I don't hink so.
----- Posted by: WeHoHag | Apr 21, 2006 8:53:04 PM
What I left out was that my friend was working for a temporary valet service when he saw this. When a restarant's regular valet would call in sick the restarant would call this service my friend worked for and they would send people to replace the sick ones. I will have to ask my friend what restarant it was, but I know it was a restarant and not a mall.

Did producer's bithch comments get deleted? The comments were interesting. P'sBitch if you are on site, I would like to know if (you) have any evidence of JG sexuallity since you say that everyone in W.Hollywood knows he is Gay! I have a freind who lives in W. Hollywood and told me that one of the actors in BBM looks familiar after he saw the movie. I was not aware of the rumors then.

hey, NYCER - - that is NOT what I said. I did NOT say my friend slept with him. I said that two years ago my friend was working as a temp valet and saw him with an older man. They didn't know anyone was watching and they were very close and it looked like they were kissing. They were in line at a restaurant to turn their car over to the valet and there were several cars on in front of them. They didn't expect the valet to come up to them and take their car until they pulled in under the restaurant's garage thingy, so they got caught by surprise.
My friend would NOT lie. He even got Jakes autograph when they came out but said Jake would not let him take a pic. And like I said this was like two years ago.
You need to read the posts before you start accusing people of doing things they haven't. THAT's how shit get started.

^^That older man must have thought he was in a dream, how could he resist - lucky guy. :)
'He was always performing,' remembers Crystal. 'He would sing from South Pacific and we'd all go, 'He's gay, he's going to be gay.'
I'm pretty sure he was just kidding!
Gay people and gay fans don't hate or dislake closeted actors per se.
They understand that coming out is hard and that gay actors are discriminated in Hollywood.
So, gay fans understand why gay actors stay closeted? Then why are we still waiting for Toothy, when we all understand why he stays in the closet(if this is the case that is)?
I think BC was only kidding at the time as well. Cute tho. :)
New candid:

Brooding like her daddy. Cute!

I don't think so.

How do you think Reese will react if Jake starts becoming the center of attention in the fauxmance. She's been the focus up to this point. If they keep it going he may start getting more attention once PoP debuts. Can she handle it?
Hopefully, when Jake is away filming PoP, Reese can use this as an excuse to bring the Gyllenshow to an end. She can use the standard Hollywood excuses-grew apart because of distance, more time to concentrate on the kids.
A guy friend of mine that's str8 does valet parking for xtra $ sometimes, and he SWEARS ON HIS LIFE AND ON HIS MAMMA'S GRAVE that about 2 years ago he saw Jake kissing this older dude when the stopped the car and didn't think anyone had come up yet to get his keys.

oh yeah i remember now , i saw him too with this older man in his car and it was really hot if you see what i mean.

i guess we aren't a majority of gayfans.
Honestly i don't know why i am still here. I guess it's just for fun.

I am not sure. I think it will last a long time.
Might the old guy kisser be his own father?
The Gyllenhaal-family men might have stange habits for a Latino valet (if that witness was Hispanic).
The sighting account does not look entirely vetted.

We're the small vocal minority! ;)

Wouldn't surprise me! Jake even looks at relatives like he's about to kiss 'em passionately! lol
we are still here cause we are all obsessed in a unealthy way lol
"We're the small vocal minority!"
true
Here's a gay fan - me. I save my "understanding" for brave souls like John Barrowman and Neil Patrick Harris. I don't have a lot of sympathy for rich closet-cases who like to pretend that straight is always better than gay.
this may not work.. but.. if reese and jake are using each other for pr (which I totally think they are) then I still don't think its working.
no where near as popular as aniston and mayer
^^Just because someone isn't able to come out of the closet, doesn't imply he thinks straight is better than gay, ever. There's no way to know why now isn't the right time for him, his reasoning, or if he's even gay, unless you know something the rest of us don't. You should try not to project your own feelings onto an innocent person. Most everyone agrees that people should come out when the time is right for them, not when the time is right for you.

Reeke is boring because Reese is as exciting as a plank of wood and Jake is always described as a guy who's sole purpose in life is to marry the bore.
You would think that because they lose language, they would pay close attention to the paralinguistic elements of the communication,” Dr. Rankin said.
This study is base on interpreting verbal sarcasm, not reading it, which as we all know, can be lost in translation. Or, English may not be a person's first language. Missed that, didja?

"My friend kept saying that if he had had his cell out and could have gotten a pic of that man and Jake he wouldn't ever probably have to work again 'cause he would sell it. ... They didn't expect the valet to come up to them and take their car until they pulled in under the restaurant's garage thingy, so they got caught by surprise."
Nice try 10:14, but I don't get your sarcasm.

Seven Years After Donnie Darko
Production of the sequel to cult hit Donnie Darko has started work in Utah under director Chris Fisher.
Showgirls star Elizabeth Berkley is the latest name to join the cast list, which also sees the return of Daveigh Chase.
Chase will again play Samantha Darko, younger sister of the original film's anti-hero Donnie, who was played by Jake Gyllenhaal. Imdb.com reports that the sequel, titled S. Darko, picks up seven years after the first film, with Samantha and her best friend Corey plagued by bizarre visions on a road trip to Los Angeles. The original film was written and directed by Richard Kelly.
Most everyone agrees that people should come out when the time is right for them, not when the time is right for you.
True. I don't expect Jake to come out or come out anytime soon.
P.S. I don't mind his staying in the closet, I only wish he would beard with more style and with someone likeable.
No, there is no excuse for bearding. It sets gay rights back to the 1950s. As long as actors beard, HW will expect actors who are gay to do so. The public as a whole are pretty homophobic and unless gay celebrities come out and being gay is openly discussed, the homophobia will continue. I don't expect HW actors to be a Mahatma Ghandi but the fact remains that a few brave actors help the gay cause while the majority who are only interested in themselves and the $$$ beard.

The OUT Magazine Sociopaths
For those of you unfamiliar with my general views on the Closet, read this and this. But specific to the issue of the day--the "OUT" magazine "Power 50, The Most Powerful Gay Men and Women In America", I am OUTraged by celebrities who live off public adulation and support and lie about their sexual orientation. I am somewhat less outraged but certainly disgusted by news and entertainment media, including bloggers that treat this subject glibly and gutlessly.
Ironically,"OUT" magazine has hit the nail on the head when they list Jodie Foster (no. 43) and Anderson Cooper (no. 2) as two of the most powerful and influential gay men and women in America. But powerful and influential in what way? The choice that Cooper and Foster and others of their ilk make to obviously lie about their sexual orientation sends a powerful and influential message to millions of closeted men and women and more importantly to millions of gay and lesbian children: being gay is shameful, dangerous, career-threatening and at the very least something to hide and deny.
Unlike some of my peers, I do not accept that a celebrity's right to a private life is the same as lying about being gay. Many straight celebrities lead private lives but nonetheless attend public functions, vacation and pursue their daily lives with a heterosexual spouse and children. Gay celebrities insult all of us with their "no comment" blathering.
We live in a society where most of us demand a free pass and are even contemptuous of the notion of responsibility and accountability. It starts in the White House and then oozes down like a slimy muck through every nook and cranny of our society. As long as the pay checks keep coming in, responsibility to society and community be damned. We reward people who engage in de facto anti-social and morally and ethically criminal behavior. And Jodie Foster and Anderson Cooper are damned good examples of this. We give them ratings and box office and even adulation within the gay community in exchange for the "powerful and influential" role they play is oppressing, persecuting and demoralizing gay America.
I for one do not and never will buy into it. Both Foster and Cooper live "out" private lives. Cooper is often seen with his eye candy of the week walking Manhattan's Man Mile (one of many affectionate terms for Chelsea's Eighth Avenue.) Would coming out hurt their careers--which at this point is surely the only sick rationale they have for this dishonest and anti-social behavior? Perhaps. But how many young lives have these two pathologically selfish celebrities destroyed with their message that being gay is shameful and dangerous? How many have suffered and go on suffering because they look to Anderson Cooper and think, "If someone that rich and powerful is afraid to come out, how could I ever hope to survive doing so?" And Anderson's folly is particularly ironic. This is a man who uses his news anchor status to advocate for victims--victims of Katrina, victims of Iraq. What about victims of the closet that he so diligently nurtures?

Sounds fine to me.
You have just to choices: to believe or not believe it.
^^^ just two choices
I don't care about the exclamation marks. It's the foreign poster with strange syntax who uses lol at the end of evey second sentence that annoys me.

Do you think that actors beard or hide their sexuality because they are pathological liars?

Jodie is 45 and thinks that glass closet is better than being out. Quite depressing.

"We'll Just Break Through That Glass Closet For You:" Out Outs Anderson Cooper And Jodie Foster
Via Queerty: Out magazine's May issue takes on the issue of the "glass closet" for gays wherein there is transparency about their lives everywhere except on the record. Writes Michael Musto in his cover story, "The Glass Closet: Why The Stars Won't Come Out And Play":
And today, the press still gives a free pass to people like Good Morning America weather anchor Sam Champion and CNN presence Anderson Cooper, helping to keep their glass doors shut so they can lead gay social lives while carefully skirting the issue.
Out will give no such free pass, thank you very much. They'll decide when celebrities should come out of the closet. So it's Anderson and Jodie Foster on the cover for all to see, even if neither of them have publicly come out and made a declaration about their sexuality either way. C'mon, Andy, you're here, you're queer, get used it it. No? Okay, we'll get used to it for you. So much for personal choice!
...
Out editor Aaron Hicklin says he expects some "flak" for "daring to create a list like this" — we're not so sure how 'daring' it is to make a list, the bread and butter of magazine newsstand bait, but we do think the cover was daring. Either way, we do agree with Hicklin here: "[I]t's a mark of real progress that the vast majority of men and women who made our Power 50 have attained their positions without feeling the need to hide their sexuality to do so." It would have been a mark of greater progress had Out not felt the need to unhide it for them.

"Do you think that actors beard or hide their sexuality because they are pathological liars?"
Of course not. They do it to get work in HW. Because HW thinks if you are a gay actor, the public will not accept you. If an actor is gay and in the closet, he can remain there. How long is his choice. IMO, by doing so he does not lie. The lies start only when the actor starts to beard. Because then he is actively promoting an image of himself that is blatantly untrue. And this is done for fame, money & success.
Constant complaining? I've complained once.
I was just pointing out that adding "lol" at the end of your comments does't make said comments witty and interesting.
If an actor is gay and in the closet, he can remain there. How long is his choice. IMO, by doing so he does not lie. The lies start only when the actor starts to beard.
So Wentworth Miller is a better person than Jake or Hayden Christensen?
I don't know much about Wentworth Miller, but if he hasn't bearded, then yes, in my books I respect him more.
The fact that Jake acted in a "message" film like BBM, the fact that Jake was soooo gay friendly in 2006/2007 makes his present bearding a slap in the face to the gay community who are struggling so hard for acceptance.
"The fact that Jake acted in a "message" film like BBM, the fact that Jake was soooo gay friendly in 2006/2007 makes his present bearding a slap in the face to the gay community who are struggling so hard for acceptance."

actually, it's the LOL...AND the exclamation marks.
it doesn't matter what's written - it can be true or clever or stupid, but adding !!!! and LOLs after EVERY sentence is like constantly tooting your own horn, laughing at your own joke, yelling when a normal voice is all that's called for.
calm down, LOLster. adding LOL at every turn doesn't make your posts better. once in a while, okay! all the time, pointless! LOL! you loose your cred! you sound desperate! LOL! see what I mean?! LOL
that said, I expect I can be attacked for lack of capitals.
I wish jake would do something kinky so we wouldn't have to discuss grammar. how long can a 27-yr-old go without sex?
"I save my understanding for brave souls like John Barrowman and Neil Patrick Harris"
I think N.P.Harris' career can be favoured because of his outing,
instead of Jake who would become the joke of the entire Hollywood.
It's just my opinion,of course
and I think Reese is hideous,
my God, that chin!!!
the sad part is I actually believe they were a real couple just 2 weeks ago...
silly me.
he doesnt'want to be "the gay community poster boy" guy , wake up.
The truth is you seems to need his coming out to validate your own choice.
I don't understand why?
"how long can a 27-yr-old go without sex?"
he is budhist.
"the sad part is I actually believe they were a real couple just 2 weeks ago...
silly me."
I gave them the benefit of the doubt, besides I don't think Jake is gay, he is bisexual and when he was younger he thought experimenting sex with boys made him trendy an interesting, now that he is trying to be a conventional hollywood star, his past came to torment him.
Stupid little rich boy with high pretensions, I can't believe i actually defended him once upon a time.
If he is BI no! no need to come out then.
One more time. October 2007 - Jake said he's straight:
"For several years he had an on-off affair with Kirsten Dunst. And yet?
I quote something he said about homosexuality: 'I don't think I'd be afraid of it if it happened.' What on earth did he mean by that? 'Nothing like that has ever happened to me. I live in a different world. What I was trying to say was why leave out possibilities in my life? It wasn't meant to be provocative.'
So let's get it on the record: is he saying he is open to persuasion? 'No, I am not open to persuasion myself, but the idea of homosexuality is acceptable to me. I grew up in a city where half the people I know are gay. Both of my godfathers are gay.'
...
OK, having established that he is not bisexual, was he being quite calculating when he allowed people to think he was? 'It was meant as a way of saying it was important for Heath [Ledger, his co-star in Brokeback Mountain] and I to have the movie exist as the movie, but also to have people know it was two straight actors playing those parts.'
Reeke: the sad part is I actually believe they were a real couple just 2 weeks ago...silly me.
Why did you change your mind?
he doesnt'want to be "the gay community poster boy" guy , wake up. The truth is you seems to need his coming out to validate your own choice.
No one said or suggested that, stop making things up and start reading posts:
"If an actor is gay and in the closet, he can remain there. How long is his choice. IMO, by doing so he does not lie. The lies start only when the actor starts to beard."

Whut?! This quote always makes me LOL.
I don't know much about Wentworth Miller, but if he hasn't bearded, then yes, in my books I respect him more.
I would say no, he didn't or so little it's not worth mentioning.
Q: Do your origins have any influence on which Presidential candidate you are supporting right now?
WM: There are topics, I don't want to discuss publicly: Politics, religion, money, and sexual orientation.
I think it's infinitely more acceptable to avoid the sexual orientation subject than to lie and beard. I have no problem with Jake not coming out, the fact that he constantly treats us like idiots by shoving the fauxmance down our throats is what bothers me. It’s disgusting and insulting!
I don't think Jake is gay, he is bisexual and when he was younger he thought experimenting sex with boys made him trendy an interesting, now that he is trying to be a conventional hollywood star, his past came to torment him.
That's not Bi, that's Bi-curious:
Bi-curious has several distinct and sometimes contradictory meanings. It is commonly found in personal ads from those who identify as heterosexual, but are interested in homosexual "experimentation." Such people are commonly suspected—not necessarily correctly—of being homosexuals or bisexuals in denial of their homosexuality. It can also be used to describe someone as being passively bi, bi-permissive, or open to indirect bisexual contact.

I see him BI too and i agree with what you say. I think jake wants to be a conventional star with a "conventional" family as his own.
He said it in one of his interview last years.
I am surprised nobody talk about the subject, he is obviously a family man and the desire to have kids will torment him soon or later.
Hello!
Gay couples can have children and be a proper family.

i haven't your certitude about jake orientation but i agree generally bearding is insulting.
""Hello!
Gay couples can have children and be a proper family.""
hey hello , are you a gay living in couple with kids ?
Bloody homophobes.
Cannes 2007 interview - from WDW:
"The interviewer asks if Jake could change that and he responds: "Yes, I have already. Apart from the success which I've had, I've invested a lot of time in creating a home for myself." "But doesn't the traditional proper home need a wife and children? When do you want to take that on?" Jake laughs and replies: "I know many people who have marriage and children as their number one priority. But I've thought about that hard and think you shouldn't put the cart before the horse. You must first meet another person with whom you'd like to create a family. I know that when I have a wife and children it will be completely the right thing for me, but in the current phase of my life I'd probably prefer to just prepare for it. For the moment,my parents, my sister and her family are the best things I have in my life. No doubt at all. Yes, I would gladly have my own small family. But I'm still young."
hey hello , are you a gay living in couple with kids ?
No. What is your point?
Do people seriously think Jake tells the truth all the time, or would feel obliged to about something like this? What's the point of these quotes?
