One Fabulous Fagola Run-in Blind Vice!
It was so delicious. Better than Angie getting her gal-flirt on at the Globes. Far better than whatever Mickey Rourke did with all those easy chicks at the after-parties. Call it showdown of the down-low dudes!
(You do know what down-low means, right? Uh, it's when superficially macho guys, often in the black and Latino cultures, but not always, like to screw with guys on the side while they've got the babes out in front.)
So here we go: Like the good little showman he is, Toothy Tile went to the Golden Globes this past weekend. And where was a camera when you needed one 'cause boyfriend ran into Lloyd Boy-Toyed, one of our other closeted Hollywood actors, just not as famous.
Jeez, wanna hear what happened?
They met. For the first time, I do not know, but I'm pretty sure it was. And even though both stars live to get their boy-flirt on, big-time, these guys are nearly a generation apart, so I highly doubt they mingle at the same gay gatherings.
But what's really interesting is how very sad Lloyd acted with Toothy, almost as if he saw before him the chance he'll never have: the possibility to come out of the closet and still have a career. Boy-Toyed never will out himself (although others sure as hell keep trying), not just because of his age, but because of his family, trust me on that one. But Toothy? Everybody knows he could still have it both ways; he's sure young enough. So what did Lloyd and Tooth discuss?
"The awards, the show, politics — it was a total come-on," insists my Toothy/Lloyd interloper. Am I quoting myself here, I wonder, and being very sneaky? Hmm. "It's how Lloyd operates. It's all in the eyes." Yes, that much is true. Very true. I know firsthand.
But let's get the point, already: Did Lloyd and Toothy hook up? Not there, they didn't, although I do believe digital info was exchanged, a dynamic that never would have gone down had T.T.'s standard chick date been around, which she wasn't, at least not then. Where could she have been? Stitching up Kate Beckinsale's dress in the ladies room?
Oh, and Lloyd. You might as well throw that number away. Toothy so is not calling. Sorry. (He's taken, a few times over.)

Friends and colleagues reveal new details about the talented young actor -- and share some unforgettable stories
Heath Ledger: The Untold Story
I noticed that Bently remarked Heath waas not gay, "quite the opposite"in this article
Wes Bentley: I had the offer [for Brokeback], like, five years earlier, when Gus Van Sant was going to direct it. I was definitely interested but it didn't come together. And then Heath brought it up. I got to make fun of him a lot. I said, ''You know you're going to be the gay cowboy for the rest of your life.'' It was scary for him. He wasn't gay — quite the opposite. But crossing that boundary, I don't know if I could have done it the way he did it. Heath got beyond that.
Why did Bentley feel the need to say "He wasn't gay — quite the opposite" ?
Your Q is kinda naive, no?
And we wonder why Jake was not asked to participate?
Please explain.
Somebody else explain, or else just ignore me at 9:45
thanks.
And we wonder why Jake was not asked to participate?
Who knows, maybe Jake was asked to participate.
EW
"To mark the occasion, Entertainment Weekly reached out to dozens of Ledger's friends and collaborators in the industry — many of whom haven't spoken publicly about his death until now — to compile an oral history of his fascinating but sadly abbreviated film career."
Wanda Sykes Talks Weddings, Civil Rights With Craig Ferguson
Wanda Sykes was on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson last night discussing her recent marriage in a bittersweet segment about same-sex marriage.
Wanda was her usual witty self, cracking jokes and asking the newly-hitched Craig "are they trying to overturn your marriage?" as a way of transitioning into a brief discussion of same-sex marriage. Craig replies that "just to be safe, I got married in Vermont... I married someone from the other side," to which Wanda says: "Ohh, you went old school." Wanda, who got married in California, wonders why people don't focus on breaking up their own marriages rather than threatening hers. She points out that gay marriage could potentially solve our economic crisis by pouring much-needed dollars into the wedding industry: "especially with men, we're talking like millions of dollars in ice sculptures alone!"

WICKED WHISPER: What funnyman’s wife caught him in bed with another man? Sister straight-up dumped her dude after catching that class act. [Gatecrasher]
Heath's agent Steve Alexander:
Sony asked me to come over and read the script for Spider-Man. It was going to be a really cool tentpole movie. But as soon as I said Spider-Man, Heath said, ''It's not for me. I would be taking someone else's dream away.'' He never second-guessed his decisions or said ''what if'' — which was amazing, because I certainly did!
13
^^Don't skip number 13! In pre-Christian times it was a very auspicious and lucky number, a basic number in the cycle of life -only after that was it vilified. :)
Pecorini: When he came to me with the first makeup test of the Joker, I said, ''S---, man, they're going to fire you!'' And he said, ''Maybe, but that's the only way I can play it.'' Movie studios are scared of daring. They're scared of pushing the envelope. And Heath was exactly the opposite. He was always pushing, pushing, pushing. It was in his nature to push the boundaries.
What a fascinating article in EW about Heath - this is one of the things I think makes a great actor, IMHO.
We kept looking at the computer thinking it was going to change. But it wouldn't go away.
This is how I felt too, and still do sometimes. :(
Oldman: I call it the cosmic s--- hammer. Just one of those things. I can't even say I ever remember seeing Heath smoking. It was a complete shock.
Gary, couldn't have said it better. I love you! :)
I'm so glad they decided to continue with Dr. Parnassus, and that Johnny, Colin and Jude helped. It means so much that they all did that. So many great films that we could have seen Heath in, I would have loved to see him as Tom Hayden. Will miss him always.
But as soon as I said Spider-Man, Heath said, ''It's not for me. I would be taking someone else's dream away.''
How very sweet.
He so was, wasn't he? And he did have such wise insights, beyond his years. The article gives you a good feeling, and I could feel Heath's excitement about playing the Joker. I always did think it would be a fun part for him. :)
I forgot to add that 13 was considered a sacred number in ancient times, too. :)
- Before Christian Bale was cast as Batman, many other actors were considered for the role, including Ashton Kutcher, David Boreanaz and newcomer Hugh Dancy.
- Only days before the role of Batman was cast, eight actors were also asked to audition for the part. The actors were Christian Bale, Joshua Jackson, Eion Bailey, Hugh Dancy, Billy Crudup, Cillian Murphy, Henry Cavill and Jake Gyllenhaal. While Bale won the part, Christopher Nolan liked Murphy's audition so much, he cast him as Dr. Jonathan Crane/The Scarecrow.

Heath was so known for his fearlessness and honesty, I wonder if the break in his relationship with Jake came as a result of Jake's failure to come out. Back when BBM was being made and released, Jake was very much slated to come out, per Ted. I think it was the success of BBM that first caused his handlers to push him back into the closet. I cant see Heath respecting someone who was not honest about himself.
EW
Black: Heath was the pied piper. If you were sad, he took care of you. If you were happy, he made you happier just by dancing or talking or laughing. Fear didn't enter his psyche. He would say whatever was on his mind. If he didn't like you, you would know it, and if he liked you, you would know it.
Let the man speak for himself, or not. Why put words in his mouth.
Whatever is the point?
That's what publicists are paid for. When you are too stupid or too much of a baby to figure out what to say when a colleague dies, they issue a statement on your behalf. Jake has been ill-served by his publicist and is too stupid to realize it.
In all due respect to a great actor and highly gifted and human human being and artist -
wake me up when the Heath worship is over.
^^Be prepared for a long sleep, then.
I can't see anyone else other than Christian Bale as Batman now, but I can see Jake playing him, if he can get in touch with his inner badass. I think he could play a conflicted soul quite well. He's good at conveying emotion.
wake me up when the Heath worship is over.
Me too.
I cant see Heath respecting someone who was not honest about himself.
Heath was aware of homophobia in Hollywood, I'm sure he understood.
We don't worship Heath. Heath would have laughed at your face if he saw somebody "worshipping" him. He had a great deal of distance to himself and Hollywood.
I respect him. More than any other young actor. He was blessed with a great talent,he was mature and devoted to his craft.
And he was hot, too.
Anne H. said that those closest to Heath would say something when the time for them is right (some think she meant Jake...).
06/01/2008
Recently, the curveballs have been flying fast. The death of Heath Ledger, her co-star in Brokeback Mountain, was a shocker that touched her deeply. “That was tough,” she says. “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.”
One thing is certain - Anne, Ang, Michelle and the people involved with BBMt noticed Jake's silence.
At least Anne noticed it. She seems always so up to date what people write in internet gossip sites. She mentioned to read Perez regularly.
She mentioned to read Perez regularly.
Really? Nice of her to admit that.

ONTD had a clip of Zach Braff from Letterman. I mention it because he was talking about getting his pilot's license after his Disney contract was over. He said when you are under contract with Disney you cant do anything, no waterskiing, no motorcycle riding, they own you. So maybe all Jake is able to do these days is walk, jog and drink coffee. I'm even surprised they let him jog on public streets. Uneven pavement, road hazards.
Nobody is worshipping Heath, or sainting him. I wouldn't have liked him if he were a saint, or phoney in the slightest way. Anne really said all that needed to be said, nobody is asking for anyone to bare their soul, just a couple of friggin' words. But that must be too much I guess. It really stands out, Jake's silence.
wake me up when the Heath worship is over.
For myself, I can't help finding him fascinating, a bit enthralling, and like 1:38 said, he was hot. He was devestating, especially when you look at all the early pictures of him. Heck, he was even an adorable toddler!! I've seen one male generation picture of him and he looks to be about 4-5 years old. The guy was absolutely adorable.
But he was not without faults. The pictures of him flipping off the paps kind of grate on me and he had kind of an ungrateful attitude about interviews & all the duties that come with fame, seeming to forget that they are a necessity in a profession that paid him well enough to be able to plunk down major $$$ for a New York loft and alot of other luxuries.
But you know, the guy is gone now. When people die, one tends to try & remember most of the good. And I think the fact that he died so young & kind of tragically just casts kind of a "glow" around him. He will be forever young. He was truly unique. Old school, seems to me. And old school is really hard to find in this day of newbie actors.
And I agree in that it looks worse now that Jake never has said anything. Because I think we've heard from just about everyone. And that EW.com article were quotes from all fellow actors/directors/producers etc.
Whether Heath or Jake want to acknowledge or admit, Brokeback Mountain was more than a successful movie, seems to me. It broke major barriers. It went mainstream and that is huge. It's what the GLBT community needed and it affected so, so many heterosexual, conservative people like myself and totally, I mean totally, started the thread in changing my ridiculous views. I don't know that those 2 guys got that. Or were/are proud of that. That's big. To be able to affect people's thinking in that way by acting it out on a moviescreen.
Sorry! Got a little longwinded there.
Very well said, PG. :)
I second that, very well said prairiegirl.
Heath's agent Steve Alexander:
We were sitting in a marketing meeting at Sony, and they were talking about how they were going to build the campaign for the movie [A Knight's Tale], how they're going to hit this city and that city, and they'd like him to go on a world tour. They had this whole campaign — ''He will rock you'' — because Heath looked like a rock star. Obviously it was a great opportunity, but Heath saw it as a lot of pressure. He was scared to death. He walked out of the meeting and ran into the bathroom. He was afraid he was being built up too quickly, and that if he was put on a pedestal there was nowhere to go. I don't think he was mature enough at that moment to understand what he wanted from his career, but that just didn't feel right to him.
^^That is so amazing; that one so young would be aware of such a thing at that age, to trust his gut and not look to what the majority thought to guide him. Most young guys would have revelled in it. Heath certainly was unique.
Heath's agent Steve Alexander:
After 10 Things, Heath was offered every teen movie under the sun. Every studio wanted him to play the most popular guy in high school, the guy that gets the girl. He let all those opportunities go by, whether there was money or not. He said, ''I really want to try to elevate what I'm doing.''
Heath also turned down Spider Man.
And that EW.com article were quotes from all fellow actors/directors/producers etc.
You know they had to have gotten in touch with Jake for that article. And nothing.

^^^Jakey, comments like that & I would love to flick you on the back of your head with my index finger. thump!!
Here's another favorite of mine by Donna Morong, the casting director of 10 Things I Hate About You from the EW.com article:
Heath drove up in a convertible, top down, and jumped out of the car without even opening the door. He was adorable. Gorgeous. So full of life. He smoked cigarettes and was wearing tight, white jeans. He was impish, like he was in on a joke, like he had this secret that tickled him. He was living at a fast speed. It seemed like he was desperate to grow up.
And on that note, The Brothers Grimm is just starting on the Sci Fi channel. Never get tired of that movie, even tho I have it on dvd.
Well, the Jake quote disappeared. But anyways....off to catch a little Brothers Grimm
LOL, Heath loved tight jeans even as a teen. Would have loved to see him in his tight white jeans.
Gil Junger, director, 10 Things:
Heath came in to read, and he exuded a sexuality so uncommon for a man of that age. As soon as he left, I stood up and said, ''Ladies, I have never wanted to sleep with a man, but if I had to, that would be the man. Please hire him immediately.''
Me too, 4:44 PM. Blue skinnies will have to do.
Heath
Heath
Blue skinnies and pink pullover and no gay rumors? LOL. J/K. ;)
Ladies, I have never wanted to sleep with a man, but if I had to, that would be the man.
How could Jake resist that sexiness?
More pink...
Wes Bentley: Heath's fun clouded its way through a room. It was infectious. If you were stuck in an elevator with him, you'd be entertained. He liked to go to Vegas dressed snazzy. He'd walk the streets of Vegas and never really have a plan, dressed up in a pink blazer and a tie. He liked to get a boat and travel to the Greek islands. Some people think he'd party too much and take drugs. That wasn't the case. It was young energy. He was high off life. (Pictured in 2002 with Naomi Watts, Jennifer Quanz, and Wes Bentley.)

Don't read if you idolize Heath.
I find Heath uninteresting. Just another actor who couldn't deal with the world. I only like his performance in BBM, every else was not particularly memorable.
Blu-ray extras sound like nothing new.
Heath's performance in Monster's Ball swept me off my feet.
I find Heath uninteresting. Just another actor who couldn't deal with the world. I only like his performance in BBM, every else was not particularly memorable.
I think his version of the Joker in TDK is memorable too. He also proved that he's a versatile actor in the various roles he did.
P.S. Just like Jake's in Donnie Darko.
6:42 PM, how many of his movies have you seen?
Heath wasn't the type of actor who played it safe. If you watch his movies, you'll notice he portrayed a variety of different characters. And even if the movies weren't that well received by critics, it seems they noticed his talent and kept hiring him.
CSC's Uncle Vanya to Extend Through March 8
Classic Stage Company's production of Anton Chekhov's Uncle Vanya, which will begin previews January 17 with an opening date of February 12, has announced a one-week extension and will now close March 8.
As previously announced, the production will be directed by Austin Pendleton, and star Denis O'Hare in the title role, with Maggie Gyllenhaal as Yelena and Peter Sarsgaard as Astrov. The cast will also include Cyrilla Baer (Marina), Mamie Gummer (Sonya), Delphi Harrington (Maria), George Morfogen (Srebryakov), and Louis Zorich (Waffles).
Brokeback on blu ray. Oh what a PR nightmare. Jack sure looked like he enjoyed kissing that cute boy. Bet he done that before.
"6:42 PM, how many of his movies have you seen?"
dont be a snot, 6:57 mind yr own business and let others be. please.
dont be a snot, 6:57 mind yr own business and let others be. please.
Why so hostile? I just asked.
It was the drugged look on Jake's face after the reunion kiss that was really something - but then, both of them portrayed beautifully two people besides themselves.
I sense some here might be a tad ticked because of the Heath posts overload. If you are, say so and I for one will gladly leave.
"dont be a snot, 6:57 mind yr own business and let others be. please.
Why so hostile? I just asked."
well, don't. take a deep breath and let people be, for a change.
Bet he done that before.
If so then Austin was probably the lucky fellow.
"I sense some here might be a tad ticked because of the Heath posts overload. If you are, say so and I for one will gladly leave."
I'll gladly say so. I thought the article very moving, and I think Heath is a fine actor and hopes he gets the Academy Award for supporting actor, he well deserves it.
However, those who are especially attached to him, in a more personal way, are, Im sure, really wanting to talk about him alot. I understand this. There are sites for this.
I sense some here might be a tad ticked because of the Heath posts overload.
Ignore them.
Everyone can comment or discuss any Jake related subject if he/she doesn't care for Heath.
But please do not snip at people who are not that interested and say so. that's all Im asking.

Fine. Then continue with the Jake discussion. Damn sure there are plenty of sites dedicated to Heath.
7:27 PM
If you are not interested then please don't spoil the fun for others. You can always start discussion about Jake or something else that you find interesting.
Yay! I've been waiting for Brokeback on Blu-Ray! Best news I've heard all day.
I enjoy discussing Heath here with others, I don't feel it's too much under the circumstances. For those who do not, either scroll on by or find another blog that's to your liking. We also tend to like bracing discussions here, so if you don't have the stomach for it, I suggest you find some place a little more to your liking.
For this Oscar-winning film, video will be presented in 1.85:1 1080p accompanied by a 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack.
Nirvana for me - especially the soundtrack. I already have 2 copies of BBM, but I have to have it on Blu-Ray. Sigh. :)
Ay, I still didn't buy Full HD TV nor Blu-ray player.

Don't Want To Be Alone
I don’t want to be alone. I know I have said in past posts that I wouldn’t mind being alone.. well, I lied! Haha! I watched Brokeback Mountain last night and my whole perspective has changed.
At the end of the movie, Heath Ledger’s character is left with nothing but a beat up trailor, a bitter divorce and he is totally alone. My heart broke when I realized that could be me. I would much rather go against the teachings of the Church, find a loving partner to share my life with than be alone. Why did I ever think that would be okaY? Gosh, I am kicking myself now for wanting such a sad, terrible thing!
Some may mock me or get upset with my decision, but looking for a loving partner and starting a family seems more and more realistic. I still am hesitant to go that way because I do fear judgement and I do know plenty of people who will judge me on my decision. I know there comes a time when you have to not let others opinions bother you, but that is easier said than done and it takes time.
I have made some pretty hard decisions over the past few weeks and I have make some big steps that I normally wouldn’t have made if it wasn’t for the help of friends. I have spoken my mind when needed and I have done things that are slowly improving my life, even though it sucks right now!
The life and trials of a gay Mormon
There isn't that much that's interesting lately to discuss about Jake - his movies have been pushed back, and there's just endless coffee runs with Reeke. If you have something other than that, please, by all means, share it with us, and we'll be happy to discuss it.
^^^ crickets ~~~~~
If you are, say so and I for one will gladly leave.
Bye!

Honest question, why are some posters here bothered by Heath discussions? I noticed this happens quite often.
It's sad that people get offended when tributes for him are posted shortly before the one year anniversery. Why is it necessary to spoil the fun and create an awkward situation?
Im not sure it is "offense" that people feel, but I can speak only for myself. I dont feel "offense" I feel this is a time for tributes - but Im uncomfortable with speculation about his personal life and his relationship with Jake and comparisons with Jake.
Im still weep easily when, for instance, reading this article. And I think it's going to be difficult through the anniversary of his death and the Academy Awards. I love to see pictures of him, my favorite is the one with Michelle at Academy Awards.
However - I know how to scroll, and Im sorry if Ive spoiled anyone's "fun" by my comments.
^^
Posters like 6:42 PM seem annoyed obviously.
Tell me what speculation about Heath's private life? The only speculation about him is in connection with Jake...why he stayed silent. That's all I can see.
Whatever.
I don't understand. Why would you feel uncomfortable speculating about Heath's personal life and his relationship with Jake, but not feel equally as uncomfortable speculating about Jake's personal life.
I am one of those that think that Jake had a serious crush on Heath (if not more than that). I also don't have a problem with Jake not issuing a statement regarding Heath's death. I hope he never says anything.
Unlike some of the grief nazis that frequent this board, I would never presume to tell anyone how to handle their grief privately or publically.
"I am one of those that think that Jake had a serious crush on Heath (if not more than that). I also don't have a problem with Jake not issuing a statement regarding Heath's death. I hope he never says anything."

BBM on Blu ray - good news. Lots of contraversy about exactly what is said during first night in the tent. The sound should be really crisp on Blu Ray.
I am one of those that think that Jake had a serious crush on Heath (if not more than that).
Mabye. I'm glad that media was respectful in this regard, I mean they didn't speculate about their friendship. I want it to stay that way. It's nobodys business anyway.
10:20 PM, I agree. Still the Reeke photo ops (hiking, NYC...) will bother me forever.
What's so funny Jake? What is Reese texting?
?
"I also don't have a problem with Jake not issuing a statement regarding Heath's death. I hope he never says anything."
I agree also! I think Jake will make a statement years from now. And if any of us are around (and this time and part of our life will probably be a distant past) his statement will be very interesting, I believe.
I totally respect Jake's actions according to Heath's passing.
Can't help but think that something behind the scenes happened with them.
My take on it is. Note:
It's all just my opinion though!!!!
1. Jake and Heath fell out about something and were no longer speaking for some time.
2. Jake was really distraught about his passing and could not bring himself to talk about it publicly.
3. Jake did not want to be apart of the grief stricken, slash PR blitz from ((some celebs.)) which (CAN) cheapen the situation especially if you did not know him personally.
4. They were closer than most think (ie)and Jake did not want to bring any attention to this situation. Especially with his gay rumors flying around the net.
5. Jake spoke to all or most of Heath's Family and close friends privately and did not give a shit what the public (fans) wanted or thought of it. And since he was considered the GAY ONE from BBM, they would turn it into more than it was anyway (even if he is Gay)so why bother.
5. Jake and Heath's closeness was more PR for BBM and they were never close, just casual aquaintences for the most part.
I believe this last one less than the other options though.
I know, some are gonna speak on "Jake is the godfather of his daughter". I think this is nice but somehow I'm feeling this (may) have been a litte butching up for them from the producers, studio or PR. Notice how although BBM was filmed before Jarhead, Proof and Casanova, they all came out before BBM, at least a month before to cushion the blow of to straight guys playing gay cowboys. Heaven forbid one of them or they both mess around for real.
"they all came out before BBM,"
LOL I should have said "Released" before BBM.
What's so funny Jake? What is Reese texting?
I bet nothing was funny, Reeke wanted few good paparazzi pictures.
And since he was considered the GAY ONE from BBM, they would turn it into more than it was anyway (even if he is Gay) so why bother.
Who are "they"?
Lots of contraversy about exactly what is said during first night in the tent.
I remember contraversy about what Jack said or didn't say. Did I miss something?
They = media, fans, tabloids, internet.
And since he was considered the GAY ONE from BBM, they would turn it into more than it was anyway (even if he is Gay) so why bother.
Two years abter BBMt? No one would think Jake is gay because he said a few sentences about his colleague.

PENN ANTSY OVER LEFTY PALS
SEAN Penn is getting worried that his cozying up to Marxist dictators might cost him an Academy Award. We reported last month how Penn was smacked by the gay Advocate magazine over his visits to Fidel and Raul Castro, whose regime murdered and imprisoned gays. Last week, Penn called José Miguel Vivanco, head of Human Rights Watch's Latin America division, and asked for a meeting. Vivanco flew to San Francisco to dine with the star Thursday and brief him on the situation in Cuba and Venezuela. Vivanco was thrown out of the latter country by Penn pal President Hugo Chavez. "Tom Cruise let Scientology make him a household name for weirdness. Sean is entering into similar territory as a p.r. stooge for left-wing dictatorships," said a Hollywood insider. "It's never too late to do the right thing," says Thor Halvorssen of the Human Rights Foundation. "Political prisoners in Venezuela and Cuba could use the help of someone like Sean Penn."

If I Was Straight
Re. Jake/Heath.
Whether they were close or not is irrelevant. We probably will never hear anything from Jake, maybe years later something insignificant.
So dragging Heath into it for some fans to complain about posts about him and talk shit is disrespectful towards him.
I'd suggest leave him out of this and move on.
I bet nothing was funny, Reeke wanted few good paparazzi pictures.
She was so concentrated on her phone, it looked staged to me.
Is anyone else wonderiing if Ryan Phillippe is still in touch with Jake and how their releationship is?
In an interview Jake said he and Ryan were friends, that was 9 years ago. Wonder if they still are?
Two years abter BBMt? No one would think Jake is gay because he said a few sentences about his colleague.
The moms in the checkout line in Walmart wouldn't, but the internet and blogggers would probably have a field day with it, although it would be disrespectful to Heath or Jake. Hey, but most bloggers and internet fans don't give a shit for the most part anyway. Just nasty, vile and mean.
I think Jake and Ryan are/were something more than colleagues, something less than friends.
Reeking must made things awkward so I presume they are not in touch anymore.
10:20, but you are making a judgement about how people handle their grief with your negative categorization of those who have wondered about it. And why is speculating about his relationship with Heath ok, but not why he didn't make a statement. Doesn't make sense. You seem to forget that public figures have certain obligations in life - if they don't like that, then they should find a more private line of work. If Jake feels he owes nothing to his fans, then his fans owe nothing to him. Just simple logic.
I think Jake and Ryan are/were something more than colleagues, something less than friends.
I agree, but I'm not sure they're not in touch anymore.
Why do you think they are still in touch?
^^
Why shouldn't they be?
Reeking must made things awkward so I presume they are not in touch anymore.
Didn't Jake brag about how he stole the drummers girlfriend when he was in a band? I think I read it in IHJ's FAQ's. Now if he's really with Reese, he seems to be the guy who doesn't have a problem with hooking up with a pal's gf. So, you're probably right, Ryan probaly isn't too happy about Reeke, be it real or fake.
I wonder what's going on with R&A. You never hear that much about them, whereas the "private" Jake and Reese are everywhere, all the time.
Huh?
Ryan left Reese for Abbie. Their marriage was dead long before the divorce. Ryan knows that Jake is gay.
Ryan probaly isn't too happy about Reeke, be it real or fake.
Why would Ryan care?
"You seem to forget that public figures have certain obligations in life - if they don't like that, then they should find a more private line of work. If Jake feels he owes nothing to his fans, then his fans owe nothing to him. Just simple logic."
Hey, Hey, Let's be fair now. Heath did not feel he owed anything to the masses or fans or HW. Heath considered himself and actor and a private one. He seemed very guarded. Now let's not talk about the pap shots of he and family, he seem to hate them. While most actors just carry on and know it's a part of being famous, Heath would be pissed most of the time and it showed on his face and expressions. Some tabs and fans thought he was not right for his actions if I remember. A part of his job is to give interviews just as other celeb./actors. He did not seem to want this and I felt for him during the rare interviews he gave. He was too nervous. There was not many interviews for BBM if I recall, but I think Jake did them, regardless of how many they were.
Love the man Heath L. and he left us too soon. A beautiful and complex man. He will be missed for some time.
So dragging Heath into it for some fans to complain about posts about him and talk shit is disrespectful towards him.
I understand that some Jake fans (and trolls) don't care about Heath or Jake/Heath, but there are fans who love such discussions and should discuss it as much as they like.
That's the purpose of blogs like WFT2.
^^I agree with you there, I was thinking about that the other day. It was obvious from pap pics of Heath that he really didn't like all the "trappings" of his success.
My comment at 10:57 was in response to 10:50's. :)
Jake is a loser. The only good thing about him was that we all thought he had the balls to come out. He became famous due to the success of Brokeback. His turning his back on something that was important to him will haunt him the rest of his life.

you are intitled to your opinion, although I don't agree with it. How does Jake not coming out effect you? Why have you put so much in his supposedly coming out? As long as you are out should be the important thing in your life, not Jake's coming out.
Live and let live!
Two years abter BBMt? No one would think Jake is gay because he said a few sentences about his colleague.
The moms in the checkout line in Walmart wouldn't, but the internet and blogggers would probably have a field day with it, although it would be disrespectful to Heath or Jake.
Bloggers who think Jake is gay aren't disrespectful. They certainly wouldn't disrespect Jake, Heath or BBMt legacy.
Bloggers who think Jake isn't gay wouldn't start questioning Jake's sexuality because he said something about Heath.
Brokeback on blu ray. Oh what a PR nightmare
Oh yes. Watch. Rewind. Watch. Rewind.:)
Lots of contraversy about exactly what is said during first night in the tent.
Details, please.
I can never figure out what Ennis says to Jack in FNIT. Does anybody know? ;)
Ennis says "Whatcha doin'?"
The only think Jack says is "uhhh, ohhh, uhhhh...." you get it, though some think he also says "fuck me". Unfortunately I can't hear it. :(
Did anyone hear Jack saying "Fuck me" in the FNIT? I remember few people claiming they do hear it.
Wow. :)
I don't recall hearing it, and I've watched BBM countless times - but you certainly could imagine Jack saying it. It's a very hot scene, different than SNIT, which I love also.
I recall one advice - the best way to hear everything is to use quality headphones.
I can certainly hear something. When I heard about "Fuck me" I started hearing it. Before that I used to hear metal clinking or something:)
I heard Jack saying "fuck me" in FNIT very clearly. Pay attention and you'll hear it.

Ok I will put it this way Jake has no balls.
He said "Oh Ennis...fuck me". It's very soft but it's there! :)
If the "fuck me" really is there I wonder if it was in the script or Jake was just too caught up in the moment and let it slip. ;)
A bit of improvisation doesn't hurt.
I used headphones and it's not there and will notbe there on blu-ray. Stop with the fan fic or take it back to the DCF, where posters have watched BBM a million times and have NOT heard it.
^it's your loss that you can't hear it! find a better dvd player/headphones. It's totally there.
If the "fuck me" really is there I wonder if it was in the script or Jake was just too caught up in the moment and let it slip. ;)
Now there's a lovely thought -
This needs closer inspection. One more reason to buy Brokeback on Blu-ray :)
^^Now there's some research to look forward to. :)
It's a tough job, but someone's got to do it :)
"Why would Ryan care?"
His kids are involved.
So what, it's not like Ryan wanted to stay married to their mother.
Ryan is with Abbie and he knew that Reese will date someone else - for PR or real. He knows Jake and has nothing to worry about.
Real or fake, Ryan has no problems with Jake IMO, he knows him.
Wasn't he on the Howard Stern show last year and he said: "I care about Reese, she seems happy and I'm happy for her". Then Stern mentioned that it's important that he gets along with the kids, and he said yeah it is and that Jake is a good dude.
The Ryan/Abby thing is odd only because there are so many stories of Ryan out by himself w/o Abby and surronds himself with other women.
Whoa, I think Chris must be reading this blog. Wasn't there a comment about the weird meals he's been posting on his blog and someone suggested squirrel next. Today he is pictured holding a squirrel saying he is going to figure out something to do with it next. If the squirrel comments were not here, could have been OMG
Did he say fuck me or not has been debated forever on DC forum. Personally, I've heard it and it makes sense that Jack gave Ennis permission to proceed by uttering those words. Very softly said.
Oh, no!
That's it - NO ONE SHOULD EVER MENTION EATING WILD ANIMALS!
OMG, that's funny about Chris. I really think it's beautiful if that was said between Ennis and Jack, makes it even more beautiful. :)
Chris F has GOTTA be reading WFT. Cant wait to see his squirrel scrotom recipe! ! !
O that poor mourning dove with its crispy claws all clenched up, Cris could have clipped off the claws, for goddsake.
He's gotta wild sense of humor, I must say!
Yes he did whisper that. Only heard it when the movie was on the telly (HBO).
I wasn't expecting to hear anything in that scene, so I was like "what did I just hear?!" after 1-2 seconds when the scene finishes and we see the morning after.
Don't think about it and you'll hear it.
What mourning dove? Just because they look like squab doesn't mean you have to eat them! And I can't believe he killed a squirrel just to make a point on a blog. What an ass. I'm all done with that Gyllenhaal gang! ;)
Squirrel Scrotum stew? Oh, God.
Thanks, 3:00 pm, I'm going to watch BBM later and look for it. Man-love heaven, IMO. ;)
3:03 PM
Looking forward to your report.
DL & IMDb gossip
"Luke and Wentworth are still a couple:
I know for a fact that Wentworth and Luke M. are a couple.
My hairdresser was telling me that another of his clients runs a business in West Hollywood (no, I'm not going to tell you what kind of business.) Wentworth hired this guy to do what he does. When the work was completed, he called WM to come and pick it up. Instead of WM, guess who showed up. That's right, Luke. This guy, my hairdresser's client, left the meeting with Luke feeling absolutely positive that the two of them are a couple."
Hopefully Wentworth will be able to come out now that Prison Break has been canceled. It would be really nice. I am really hopeful that he and other celebs will come out soon. I cant believe Ricky Martin hasn't come out at this point I don't know how it could hurt his career. Everyone knows he is so hopefully he will feel in his heart it is the right thing to do. I think Clay Aiken did a very honorable thing when he came out because he felt it was the right example for his kids.
He said "Oh Ennis...fuck me". It's very soft but it's there! :)
January 18, 2009 12:38 PM
This is exactly correct. He absolutely definitely does say it. I heard it in a theater at a special showing. I wonder if it is present in some copies and absent in others? Maybe they erased it for audiences in certain parts of the country?
But yes, this is exactly what he says. It was not at all difficult to hear it at this showing. I had not noticed it before at a couple of other theater showings.
I suspect there are slightly different versions for different audiences. I am repeating myself LOL!
But he said it. No need to wonder whether he said it. This is exactly what he said.
regarding Where could she have been? Stitching up Kate Beckinsale's dress in the ladies room?
There was a dust-up a few months ago about Reese having worn the same dress that someone else had previously worn (and it wasn't Jake).
Anybody remember this? Whose dress was it? Was it Kate Beckinsale? This would be an announcement of what we already know, that JG=TT.
Same dress, long time ago - Kirsten and Reese.
Yes, I remember this - I think it was Kiki, of all people, who wore the same dress!
I absolutely loved Jake and Kiki together, she suited him personality-wise, at least I thought. He seems to be a gentleman who prefers blondes, but I don't think Reese suits him.
Jake seems to be a gentleman who prefers boys.
^^ True.
I cant believe Ricky Martin hasn't come out at this point I don't know how it could hurt his career.
Jodie, Anderson, Kevin, ... Ricky is not alone.
It wasn't a few months ago, Reese wore it at the GG's in 2006, Kiki wore it at the GG's in 2003, 3 years apart, talk about kismet!!
Jake and Kiki were dating at the time but i don't think they did the red carpet, they may have attended an after party.
Jake did't show at the 06 GG's when BBM was up, he was snubbed and some claim that he boycotted the awards, along with him being jealous of the acclaim Heath was getting.
They blamed Fincher for not letting off that night from filming Zodiac but sources say that was BS since he showed up at an after party for CAA with Peter Saasgaard.
Kiki was and still is a junkie and Jake was one of her enablers, dumped her when the rumors started to get back to him.
He seems to be a gentleman who prefers blondes
Jake seems to be a gentleman who prefers boys.
So maybe he prefers blonde boys.
Heath perfectly fits the description.
I know, I know, I'm running a fanfic in my head at the moment, but, why, why, why do I always have a feeling Jake had a huge crush on Heath when I see photos of them together?
I thought Kiki dumped Jake.
He does, doesn't he? I wouldn't be surprised if Jake had a crush on Heath, you'd have to be made of stone not to respond to someone like him. Everyone who knew him makes a comment like that about him.
"why do I always have a feeling Jake had a huge crush on Heath when I see photos of them together?"
um, cause he did?
Same dress (although the top looks gold on one and silver on the other) and the same hairstyles!:
http://www.thesuperficial.com/archives/2006/01/19/reese_witherspoon_wears_kirste.html
The Kiki dumped Jake was PR BS to cover up her addiction.
Kiki looks a little thin in that pic, but she looks great now. She looked good at that Art of Elysium gala. I hope she's got her addiction beaten, we miss her! She and Reese do sort of resemble each other.
Kiki dumped Jake, she was fed up with Jake's boys.
If Jake dumped his girlfriend who was struggling with addiction, I think it was pretty low.
"Supportive"? He hooked up with Miss I'm So Perfect and he's so supportive now. He is so full of shit, afraid to deal with difficult stuff, wanting people to think he's such a good boy.
Detached from reality much, Jake?
I am surprised how many people insisted Jack did not take E's hand and put it on his dick in the FNIT.
As for "E, fuck me", I havent picked it up, with very good headphones. Id love to hear it, though, who wouldnt?
Jake couldn't cure Kiki. Kiki's boyfriends and girlfriends, after Jake, didn't cure her addiction.
Jake supports Reese's career.
4:49, it's quite obvious that that's what Jack did with Ennis' hand, quite natural, and beautiful! :)
Jack did that?!
OK, I can hear the "Fuck me" part alright but Jake's hand is only grabbing Heath's hand, it's not going anywhere Jake's crotch.
Am I blind?
Yes you're blind! And Im deaf! and we're all effin' nutz!
I always see it as Jack grabbing Ennis' hand to bring it to his crotch, only you don't see the entire thing.
Yes you're blind! And Im deaf! and we're all effin' nutz!
LOL
You dont actually see E's hand on J's dick but its very clear as to the direction in which its headed.
as for the murmered hot words, I just looked at the scene again and I hear some "eh" in the panting and some "fff" sounds, but Ive never believed Jack said E eff me -
please prove me wrong! thanks!
Fast or slow, I like the direction Ennis' hand was goin'. ;)

no, I mean when they are both up and on their knees: -
Jake is such a natural bottom.
"Jake is such a natural bottom."
Thats one of the things I love most about him.

Yes we all do Austy. But we love tops too.

FNIT, if I remember correctly...
Jack is grabbing Ennis' hand to bring it to his crotch twice: at the begining of the scene (Ennis is sleeping) and at the end of the scene (screencaps 856 and 857).
The scene that was debated was the one where Jake rose up, Ennis said, what are you (we?) doing and Jack drew E's hand to his crotch, a gesture to demonstrate his own erection and excite the other -
Three times!?
Ennis woke up and jumped because his hand was on Jack's erection.
a gesture to demonstrate his own erection and excite the other -
Well for heaven's sake don't stop NOW 6:20! ;-)
Yes we all do Austy. But we love tops too.
DL gays are saying that modern boys are mostly versatile.
Reese and Renee Z. were spotted together at a restaurant with others in a 6 party table... this was a few months ago. Anybody recalls?
Yes! Now I remember - in London, Jake was seen with Renee having breakfast, and some wondered if it were Reese or not!
OBAMA!!

^YAAAAAY!!! Sorry, I live in D.C. and am shrouded in all the excitement right now. I love every second and am a total dork about it all =)
He seems to be a gentleman who prefers blondes
Jake seems to be a gentleman who prefers boys.
So maybe he prefers blonde boys.
LOL. So, Jake's a gentlemen who prefers blonde boys? No wonder he "liked" Heath. ;)
Speaking of Heath. Has anyone here ever hear of the rumors about Heath and young boys, especially for hire?
I think you're referring to that canada.com rumor that made everyone think that was Heath--it talked about how an actor who fit Heath's description had hired a teenaged rentboy over the internet to service him while at the Toronto Film Festival-- it also noted that the actor's assistant had the teenager sign a non-disclosure agreement about it so the teenager couldn't spill the story to the tabloids.
I guess we'll never know. It would not surprise me if Heath dabbled a bit and experimented but I think his primary orientation was heterosexual. He seemed to really love women and not just sexually.
Jake on the other hand...
I remember reading about that Toronto film festival BI (DataLounge) and someone explaining that BI fits another actor, but can't recall his name.

From Star Magazine, Jan 16, 2009 issue:
Jake Gyllenhaal's Bum Rap!
The long hair and beard that Jake Gyllenhaal's sporting for Prince of Persia's The Sands of Time don't quite fly in Hollywood. While running errands on December 20, the disheveled actor was mistaken for a homeless man. "Jake bumped into a woman on the street," a witness tells Star. "She looked him up and down and said "I don't have any change!" Jake just laughed it off - and continued counting the days til the movie wraps and he can be cleanshaven.
Long hair and beard, disheveled, homeless ... they forgot to add stinky because Jake must not shower til the movie wraps . Geez.

Ellen Degeneres Lands George Clooney, Thanks To The Cincinnati Reds
Ellen DeGeneres, who made it her mission to snare actor George Clooney for her daytime television show, finally has him on board. No lure worked until Clooney jumped at the chance to appear with Cincinnati Reds Hall of Famers Johnny Bench and Joe Morgan.
DeGeneres had conducted a "George Watch '08" campaign to get Clooney. Her theme this year was "George Clooney Is Mine In '09." Clooney's "ER" co-star Noah Wyle told DeGeneres that some Big Red Machine players from the 1970s might pique Clooney's interest because he grew up around Cincinnati and is a big Reds fan. Team executives helped line up the appearance by the baseball players.
The show was taped Thursday in Burbank, Calif., and will be broadcast Monday.
1:14 a.m. that was a Lainey Blind Item so you can automatically discount it. Lamey is bad on regular gossip but her blinds are totally made up.

No, it wasn't a Lamey BI, it was from canada.com. Who knows how credible it is.
From canada.com:
"Guess who, don’t sue! While attending last year’s Toronto International Film Festival without his actress wife and their baby, this brooding star went online and hooked-up with a hot 18-year-old guy. The actor – at the fest to promote a movie with an awfully sweet title – had his assistant get the teen to sign a strict confidentiality agreement before anything happened. The threat of a multi-million-dollar lawsuit is the only thing keeping the star-f**ked lad from spilling the beans."
oh no they didnt
