McFarlane Announces Action Figures for Prince of Persia Movie
Can't wait!
Me too!
I don't think it's a life-size doll, Jerry.
*Fuck!*
Isn't it strange that Jake has been in LA over 2 weeks and there isn't even 1 pic of him? Is it because there is little interest in him out alone? Or is he really that good at flying under the radar? If he's that good a laying low, just goes to prove that much more how staged Reeke photo ops are and how phony they both are with the "annoyed at the paps face".
Isn't it strange that Jake has been in LA over 2 weeks and there isn't even 1 pic of him?
I don't think so - Jake managed to stay under the radar like that before and for longer time.
Sophia is in LA (X17) and some fangirl claims that Austin is in LA too:
I know that pic is old but Austin is in LA this week end with Sophia, I saw both of them walking down the street yesterday, they were so cute.

Here we have today some great and Hi-Res images from the upcoming “Brothers” starring Natalie Portman, Jake Gyllenhaal and Tobey Maguire. (click to see them bigger)
Hi-Res “Brothers” Images
^^I like the way Tobey is looking at Jake in the pic. ;)
Oh God, here we go again!
I'm irresistible!
^^ It'll never stop. Our minds are too dirty. ;)
Tobey and Jake like homosex.
Round 2 - Top 64
Jake Gyllenhaal vs. Tom Cruise
Quantity: Gyllenhaal and Cruise are very close in the quantity category. Gyllenhaal has done 12 films and Cruise only 11. Round - Gyllenhaal.
Quality: Cruise's best work, unfortunately is pre-2000. Since then, the only really great performance he gave was his hilarious turn in Tropic Thunder. Meanwhile, Gyllenhaal has been killing it in indies (Donnie Darko), war films (Jarhead), thrillers (Zodiac) and, of course, romantic art films (Brokeback Mountain). Round - Gyllenhaal.
Oscar Nominations: Cruise hasn't been nominated this decade and Gyllenhaal got his first nomination for Brokeback Mountain. Round - Gyllenhaal.
Shared Screen: They have not shared the screen.
Extra Curriculars: Tom Cruise is crazy as hell. Round - Gyllenhaal.
Winner = Gyllenhaal.
Shooting Without a Script
Tobey, Jake and Tom like homosex.
^^Interesting that he was compared with Cruise. ;)

Actor Calls Up the Paparazzi to Stage Pics
StyleList - Which reasonably hunky yet under-employed actor, married to a model-turned-actress made good, is pimping himself out to the paps? A recent “gotcha” moment with a roving camera crew took place because he called up and arranged it.

Does anyone recognise Jake's neck and right hand "Brothers" tattoos?
"Brothers" tattoos
^^No. Should we?
I'm a nice girl, I don't know anything about tattoos. :)
Maybe they mean something in the movie? They probably mean absolutely nothing in RL though.
Probably something to do with the prison time.
This picture proves that I've got a big cock.
Nice cock , Stephen!

Sigourney Weaver is giving you a run for your pole-dancing money.
The Alien actress, 59, reveals that she not only dances the samba but also gets down with a pole in You Again, her upcoming comedy costarring Kristen Bell, Jamie Lee Curtis and Betty White. "I didn't learn that at Yale [School of Drama]," she laughed with reporters during a recent media set visit to the movie. "Although it would have been useful." No, Weaver does not strip down to, well, stripper clothes. "I wear the same thing [I did] for the samba," she said. "I have a little kind of Carmen Miranda costume."
On a more serious note, Weaver said she's been "very heartened" by the response she's received for Prayers for Bobby. Her role in the Lifetime movie, in which she plays a Bible-thumping mother whose son kills himself because he's gay, earned her an Emmy nomination. "A lot of parents come up to me on the street and say how much they appreciate the film," Weaver said.
It may be hard to tell whether Prayers has had an impact on the way people think about gay marriage. "I was very disheartened because I love the movie and I do think it will do some good, but when I read that the poll numbers in California hadn't changed at all since the referendum, I was just shocked."
But Weaver was encouraged to learn recently that one of the two lawyers fighting the legality of Prop 8's ban on same-sex unions in California is well-known Republican attorney Ted Olson. "The fact that there is even a Republican saying, 'This is completely illegal, everybody has equal rights to happiness,' it's like, 'Oh good! I thought the world was round, and it is!' " Weaver said.
E!
Since things have been quiet on the Reeke/Jake front, we can start the countdown for the Reeke blitz next weekend. Being that it's a long holiday weekend, the Chin must surely have off, so we can be sure that she will want to squeeze in as many photo ops and personal appearances that she can.
I guess we will see some interesting X rated uses of the Jake/Dastan figure and the Heath/Joker figure once the POP figure is released. A slash fans dream come true. Illustrated stories.

August 30 - Reeke Out For A Photo Op In Venice, CA
Yawn.
Re. Reese: Please don't call me misogynistic, but that woman has awful thighs. Like a woman of 60 and she's only 30 something. Her body is just not nice looking. Hair and eyes are nice, but that's it.
Reese's bitchface isn't nice.
Like someone on ONTD said, i'd be over him if i didn't love his Jack Twist so much.
Damn Jake Nasty, why did you have to become so boring. :(
^^He would be more interesting if some of his upcoming films were remotely interesting to me. Well, maybe Nailed interests me a bit. But when will the movie come out? No one seems to know.
Nailed is a great movie, very funny!
^^LOL. The Ukraine thing must have been a joke.

Remember the tweet about Jake and Warren Beatty at the Polo Lounge?
Well it looks like it was a Bollywood actress that had tweeted about them, and that Jake and Warren were having a business dinner.
"While dining with friends at the Polo Lounge in the Beverly Hills Hotel, Mallika met Oscar winning actor-producer-director Warren Beatty and Jake Gyllenhaal, star of the upcoming Hollywood film Prince of Persia. Beatty and Gyllenhaal were finishing a dinner meeting when the actress, who's walked in with some of her friends saw them."
Mallika met Prince of Persia
^^Hopefully that means he has a chance to star in a WB movie. Jake should work a bit more.
Yes - less reeking, more working.
Warren Beatty - no new projects on IMDb, except TV Dick Tracy Special (2009)

W/O TT (stories/rumors), Jake would be one of the most uninteresting actors imo.
A pretty, harmless and a bit wimpy straight (bi?) guy. ;)
Jake reminds me a bit of Brad Pitt. :)

Good script, good subject - on paper there is nothing wrong with Rendition.
Nailed sounds interesting and edgy, Brothers sounds OK, LAOD sounds interesting, PoP sounds lame, looking forward to Damn Yankees.

IA.
I would trade seeing Nailed for PoP and Brothers.

BUZZ BUILDS ON CHELSEA'S NUPS
THOSE rumors of an imminent Chelsea Clinton wedding have picked up steam. A Post reporter yesterday spotted preparations in full gear for a very large gathering on Chappaquiddick island. A big stage was being built (above) and a large tent, capable of seating hundreds, was going up near the property's breathtaking water view. Martha's Vineyard has been abuzz all summer with speculation about Chelsea's supposed nuptials with her investment-banker boyfriend, Marc Mezvinsky. But so far, there have been nothing but denials from the Clinton camp, and talk that President Obama was going to attend seems to have no foundation, as he returns to work today. Still, rumors persist that Chelsea's daddy, Bill Clinton, has rented property on the island.
Not friends, that's Michelle's little sister Paige and the man is probably her half brother from her dad's first marriage.

So many reasons to celebrate this year’s Christmas, Sherlock Holmes and Alvin And The Chipmunks 2 will bring good tidings to your town and along with those two is Director Terry Gilliam’s fantasy adventure movie THE IMAGINARIUM OF DOCTOR PARNASSUS.
We know previously that Sony will hold the honor of distributing the movie to U.S. Audiences everywhere and now comingsoon.net reported that the late great Heath Ledger’s movie will arrive on December 25th, 2009.
THE IMAGINARIUM OF DOCTOR PARNASSUS will first stop by at Toronto Film Festival on September 18th, 2009 and it opens in the U.K. on October 16th before it finally arrives at our local U.S. theater.

Didn't that bitch Michelle Williams threat with going away from the business?? And yet, she is still pimping that kid through all NY city.
Candid pics m.a.! I'm starting to believe her PR is arranging that shit. Just how they did it right after the split and days after Ledger's death, and,also, shortly after Gilliam opened his big stupid mouth.
I don't want to offend the deluded/sued MW's fans but her "Mother Courage" act is already getting on my nerves...
Michelle seems to polarize people. Some like her some dislike her.
I think she's not above arranged photo ops. The photos with the Ledgers were arranged IMO after Mr. Gillima reveald a tad too much about H's & M's failed relationship.
Matilda seems to be a happy kid, it seems she does a good job with her. That's at least something.
And yet, she is still pimping that kid through all NY city.
Bullshit.

* Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake
* In Philadelphia to film her latest movie, Reese Witherspoon has carved out time for dinner with beau Jake Gyllenhaal at trendy restaurants around town. The two recently dined at Alma de Cuba together; they also ate at Morimoto where "nobody bothered them," a source says. During their meal, she ordered a house salad and sushi, while he opted for a salad and the hamachi ponzu. And the restaurant's owner, Stephen Starr, picked up their tab. According to the source, Witherspoon frequents Alma de Cuba and is "always very polite."
* Rachel Bilson and Hayden Christensen

^^^ Fauxmance PR Monday, lol
So what if it's a showmance? If i'd own a restaurant, I wouldn't mind some free publicity ;)
Tons of sightings were made up in order to promote restaurants and shops - showmances are welcome!
People magazine Reeke "news" are few weeks old.
Dear Awful Truth:
I think I get what is the big deal with the love triangle Sophia Bush/Austin Nichols/Robert Buckley. It is not Sophia/Austin vs Sophia/Robert, but Sophin vs. Robsten. Is Austin Nichols Nevis Divine?
—Bobby
Dear Divine Intervention:
Austin's not Nevis—he wishes he were as popular in the mainstream as ND! Must be what he's hoping for by clinging onto his costars for some press.
Dear Awful Truth:
Do you think Toothy Tile has an interest in all of the current One Tree Hill gossip?
—Drs
Dear Tree Hugger:
Who doesn't nowadays? Didn't you see one of our last Hill-obsessed Bitch-Back's?
AT
^Again the Austin/Robert hint.
Lamey has a Reeke post. Additional to pimping Reeke she mentions Jake's "pants problem" again. I don't think it's so much the pants as it's his legs. He also walks funny sometimes.
Reeke
^^^ I dreamt of Jake Gyllenhaal last night. Nothing dirty. In fact, I can’t remember exactly what we were doing. But he was very handsome and only appeared from the waist up. Then I woke up this morning to these photos of Jakey and Reese Witherspoon hand in hand in Venice yesterday and, well, no wonder my dream director only shot him from the waist up. Those f-cking jeans are the ass.
Jakey’s Pants Problem is like yoyo dieting.
Lainey, when you'll do something about your Reeke PR shit problem?
"where?"
"Sophin vs Robsten". Robsten is a typo. It means ROBSTIN. they named Robert/Austin = Robstin last week.
August 27, 2009
Dear Awful Truth:
Reading your Bitch-Back yesterday, I love the idea of a Robert Buckley/Austin Nichols pairing. They should start being seen around together and One Tree Hill would break the rating records with both their out-of-this-world sexiness combined. I like that The Awful Truth team seems to support the idea, so how about creating a joint name for them so we are prepared if they ever decide to come out with the sexiest bromance? What do you suggest?
—Mimi
Dear Robert + Austin:
Um…Robstin?
^^^ That was just teasing and hinting that boys are gay :)
The Westboro Baptist Church hit up an American Idol concert in Kansas City yesterday to protest the existence of Adam Lambert. They were met by at least a couple of counterprotesters, who got them on record.
Said Megan Phelps-Roper, while a few others sang some of their own tunes about how "Brokeback Mountain" has ruined America: "These are a bunch of rebels against God and they're teaching rebellion against the standards and commandments of God."
Tweeted Lambert in response late last night: "Thank you all for the support. Love overcomes hate. Love has no color. Love has no orientation. All is love. :)"

If he wanted to get away from BBM he shouldn't eat at someplace called Alma!
The two recently dined at Alma de Cuba together...
Austin's not Nevis—he wishes he were as popular in the mainstream as ND! Must be what he's hoping for by clinging onto his costars for some press.
Sorry, Austin fans, but that boy seems pretty desperate and pathetic. I'm curious about his "career" after OTH.
^^But nowhere as desperate and pathetic as Jake clinging to Reese.
But nowhere as desperate and pathetic as Jake clinging to Reese.
True.
Of course Austin's going to hang out with Sophia. They're co-stars and long-time friends. I'm sure he enjoys some of the attention, but I don't think it's the reason they're spending time together. .
Brothers - Did some of you guys read the imdb Brothers forum? There are threads where people say they laughted when the Brothers trailer was shown. Hm. Let's hope that the movie turns out ok. I mean, the original is critically acclaimed, so...
I have no idea why would someone laugh.
What that little girl said was silly and unconvincing, and someone could say that Tobey's acting was over the top, but that could be a WTF? moment, not something to laugh about.
Of course Austin's going to hang out with Sophia. They're co-stars and long-time friends.
And they have mutual friends in NYC and LA :)
But nowhere as desperate and pathetic as Jake clinging to Reese.
Jake is a man who puts his interests first. He's very ambitous and kows who he should be friends with or hang out with (I'm not just talking about Reese).
Look, most here are convinced Jake is just bearding. But let's say he is dating that woman for real. She is the ex wife of a supposed friend of his. If you have friends like Jake... In the IHJ FAQ I read that he once proudly admitted, he "stole" his drummer's girlfriend. (Seems he's a serial offender).
Of course Austin became the "little goose on the side" when Jake could land the big fish Witherspoon. I'm glad that Austin "wised up" to quote Ted and probably moved on.
I wouldn't call Jake a man. He's a little boy hanging onto mommy Reese for dear life. Anything that was even remotely manly about him has been destroyed by his association with Reese. I cringe every time I read something about them or see a photo of them.
I cringe every time I read something about them or see a photo of them.
That's because they come off as pretentious.(At least according to my best friend and I agree with her. ;) )
That's because ugly faces Reese Witherspoon keeps making are disgusting.
^^The faces she makes are annoying.
There are annoying Reese faces and there are disgusting Reese faces.
She is the ex wife of a supposed friend of his. If you have friends like Jake...
I'm sure Ryan is OK with the bearding - he dumped Reese for another woman and he works in Hollywood.
Of course Austin became the "little goose on the side" when Jake could land the big fish Witherspoon.
Big fishes don't need cheap PR.
All kind of PR is cheap and if you think about it.
By cheap I meant tacky - like showing off your new house in a rag, on a week when your ex promotes and releases his new movie.
Matilda Ledger swings from the hands of her mom Michelle Williams as they head to their local coffee shop for breakfast on Sunday (August 30).
Emile Hirsch plays a Vietnam vet in the upcoming Taking Woodstock and remembers being inspired by Michelle’s ex, Heath Ledger. The 24-year-old actor told Parade, “As soon as I heard [director] Ang Lee was interested in me, I knew I was going to do the film even before I got the script. I’ve been a fan of Ang ever since Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, which I absolutely adored. And of course Brokeback Mountain just blew me away. I’ll always remember talking to Heath just after he finished that movie and he was going on about working with Ang and how incredible he was.”

Robert Buckley is kind of goofy looking. Then again, maybe that's Austin's type.
Nah, I'm Austin's type.
Looks like Michelle had another nose job. No wonder she was out of sight for a while...
I liked the other nose better :(
Michelle was filming Blue Valentine.
*Fuck, wait! I'M kind of goofy looking!*
No, after the "candid" pics on set she just desappeared and some posters even thought she joined Spike in England..
but no... i say it was NOSE JOB!!!!
Yeah, right, Michelle wants to compete with Megan Fox, her boob job is scheduled for October.
but no... i say it was NOSE JOB!!!!
OK, OK :)
Dear Awful Truth:
Please don't take offense to this, but are any of the BVs made up or fiction or are they 100 percent true? Just asking, and do you think any of the gay blind items will ever come out? It must be a huge task keeping secrets for so long in the public eye. P.S.: More gay BVs, please; the straight ones are boring, there isn't much intrigue there.
—Ontoplolly
Dear Gay Quota:
We couldn't make up some of this crap even if we tried. What's the point in writing fiction, anyway, when there are so many true tales in H'wood's underbelly? And methinks most of our closeted BVs will never come out on their own terms—which isn't to say some lucky paparazzi won't get the money shot and spill it for them someday.
Lamey has a Reeke post. Additional to pimping Reeke she mentions Jake's "pants problem" again.
Lame Lainey has a Renee Zellweger and Bradley Cooper post which is as bad as Reeke crap. Can't decide if Lainey is dumb or just sucks at writing PR shit.
Looks like Michelle had another nose job. No wonder she was out of sight for a while...
I think she had a nose job during DC, but I don't think she had another one. Doesn't look like it to me.
Jake said...
*Fuck, wait! I'M kind of goofy looking!*
Yes, you are.
Rendition looked good on paper. Unfortunately, it did not stay on paper. Boring, and Reese's screech drove everyone away.
I think she had a nose job during DC, but I don't think she had another one.
I agree, she's looking fine as is :)

"Robert Buckley is kind of goofy looking. Then again, maybe that's Austin's type."
I find Robert to be a similar type of beauty than Jake. Robert is a hotter version of Jake. He looks like Jake used to look in his prime.
WTF?! Robert hotter than me?!?
Robert Buckley is cute and has a great body :)

CHELSEA IN NO RUSH
CHELSEA Clinton is not getting married this year, despite constant rumors of impending nuptials. Maybe the former first daughter or her fiancé, Marc Mezvinsky, just isn't ready yet. Page Six ran a photo yesterday of a big wedding stage being built on Chappaquiddick Island off Martha's Vineyard. But Clinton spokesman Matt McKenna, who's been denying the puported union for months, said he'd wager $1,000 it's not on. Thanks, but we won't take that bet. Well-connected Democrat Serena Torrey Roosevelt wrote on Facebook: "I know this spot on Chappy very well, and I know the two brides who will get married there this coming weekend (on different days -- not to each other). Neither of them is Chelsea."
(taken from Austin Nichols Journal)
Robert is cute
It's obvious they're crazy about each other
Already "crazy about each other"? That was quick! lol
I agree, she's looking fine as is :)
She's pretty, but very underrated.
If Shutter Island isn't crap, it could change her career for the better. Pity it was pushed to February, that's never a good sign.
What also sucks, I have to wait for a new Leo movie till next year. But then we'll have 2 Leo movies. SI and Inception. Yeah! :D
Pity it was pushed ... that's never a good sign.
Tell me about it.
It'll be interesting to see how Brothers will be received...
My Brothers prediction:
* 4 out of 5 stars
* no major awards nominations
* weak box office (dramas aren't fun)
I bet you can tell I'm a pessimist, lol.
Which again brings me back to why doesn't each and every one of us want (and feel we deserve) what he [Ted Kennedy] had: single payer health care? And it's not socialism or communism if we the people want it. That's the point of democracy. If enough of us want it, then we can get it and then we should call it Health Care for a Democracy, not socialism or communism or even liberalism, all of which seem more about what the leaders think the people want, not actually what the people do want.
Thank you, Stephen G., for saying this. :)
Hooray for Ted Kennedy, one of our greatest politicians.
"If Shutter Island isn't crap, it could change her career for the better. Pity it was pushed to February, that's never a good sign"
Maybe it's a *good* sign. February is closer to Oscar season, perhaps changing the release date means they really think they have a shot to win some awards
This way "Shutter Island" can't be nominated for 2010 Oscars, and February is 10 months before Oscar nominations for 2011.
Thank you, Stephen G., for saying this.
I'm shocked, shocked to find that someone has something nice to say about Stephen G! lol

I have a suggestion to properly name the Austin Nichols/Robert Buckley bromance. Robstin gets too confused with Robsten, so how about renaming them Robin? If we are going to hear a lot about this hot pair, then we'll have to have them properly identified. Is Sophia Bush Shafterella Shoshstein?
—Celine
Dear Done With One:
To be honest, I don't anticipate us ever talking about Austin/Rob again beyond a Bitch-Back or two—fellas just don't have much of a gossip-worthy shelf life, methinks. And no, Soph isn't nearly on the same level of stardom as S2, but she is just as sweet looking.

*Damn!*
^Again, ted is implying there is something going on between Austin/Robert. There are too many mentions to say they are just hints. He's been mentioning them daily for weeks.
I'm still not convinced, so far I'm only sure about Austin and Robert are gay hints.
^I think Ted is not just hinting they are gay. He always put them together as a pair with a joint name and disguise it as a "bromance".He is hinting they are are involved.
bromance or "man-crush" - a close but non-sexual relationship between two men, a form of homosocial intimacy.
^I know what bromance means, but I think it's a cheeky way for Ted to say they are involved without outing them. There are just too many hints. He's been mentioning them every day!
It's more important what Ted has to say about Austin/Robert.

Do you think that could happen in the future?

Austin's not Nevis—he wishes he were as popular in the mainstream as ND! Must be what he's hoping for by clinging on his co-stars for some press.
Notice the "DIVINE INTERVENTION" which is mentioned in both of the answers. What is Ted trying to imply????
Some ONTD comments re. Interview interview:
ontd
I've told you, they'll call them perfect looking geniuses. LOL.
It's good he's friends with popular Natalie. Maybe he'll become as popular by association? ;)
Notice the "DIVINE INTERVENTION" which is mentioned in both of the answers. What is Ted trying to imply????
That only divine intervention could turn boys straight and make relationship with Sophia possible?
This question was below the Austin/Robert one that compares the name Robstin with Robsten:
Dear Awful Truth:
Do Robert Buckley and Robert Pattinson share something in common (aside from both being amazingly gorgeous)?
—Tiger
Dear Patt the Buck:
Oh, they share plenty in common. The name Robert, for one. Ooh, how scandalous!
Could it mean that what they both have in common is: an affair with a co-star, and the reference to the name is not their own name but their joint name ROBSTIN/ROBSTEN.
But clues can't be that complex, can they?
I think the Robstin name being so similar to Robsten is not a coindence, so you could be right about the affair with a co-star.
Could Robert be Ned Divine?

If there was a chance Jake and Natalie could hook up, Reese would be kicked by his fans with no hesitation.
Duh!!!

Could Robert be Ned Divine?

One No-Shame Same-Sex Blind Vice
This baby's sure to break a lotta hearts out there. Now, it's certainly not news that Nevis Divine is undeniably sexy. He's got a steady following from fans and paparazzi to a bevy of nearly naked gals, all vying for a piece of luscious Nev's sorta hairy frame.
But as so often is the case with the hugely slobbered set, Nevis doesn't always look to the chicks to ignite his fire. In fact, we very nearly could have a potential Toothy Tile on our hands, 'cause just like old beloved Tooth, boy Divine was once as carefree with his attraction to guys as he now is with the fairer sex:
Nevis has been famous for a while now, but his white-hot infamy's only recently been building. And we just learned that only a couple of years ago, N.D. showed up to a very prominent Industry function, and as his date, brought along another man. Love this dude's nerve! As N.D. introduced his non-famous plus one, Nevis-babe was sure to label his companion a boyfriend, while the two were nonchalantly "couply" all evening, say those who hang with Mr. D now as they did then.
And no, we're most decidedly not saying this was a boy-date who was simply a friend, but a friend with nooky benefits, for sure. Pals close to our semicloseted heartthrob claim that N.D. would "fool around" with guys sometimes, but that he considered it "no big deal."
Which is ironic because, really, it isn't. At least, not until one of those fooler-arounders heads to the nearest checkbook-dispensing tabloid office.
And it ain't: Robert Buckley, Corbin Bleu, Penn Badgley
I will never get Natalie's appeal.
I will never get Natalie's appeal.
I don't know anyone who doesn't think she's some kind of goddess looks wise. I really tried to see it, but I never could. She's pretty, but that's it for me.
So he's not Nevis, but funny how he is mentioned in the original BV as "not".
At least we got one straight answer from Ted! lol
"Stephen Fry: gorillas staring at my moobs inspired weight loss. Stephen Fry has said he was inspired to lose five-stone in weight when he noticed gorillas eyeing-up his ''man boobs'' with jealousy." [Telegraph]
"These two stars went out on a shopping trip and were photographed recently. Both carried drinks and shopping bags and looked like they were having a great time. Apparently one of them was having a really good time! Our source said they saw the star crushing up several little white pills and mixing it in her drink before heading out to be snapped by the paps! Not Reese and Jake." [BuzzFoto]
^^^ No, we can't let anyone think that the chin would do something like that. The bitch would be furious!
Same-sex couples in Vermont will be able to get married starting today and in honor of this momentous occasion, Ben & Jerry's has temporarily renamed "Chubby Hubby" to "Hubby Hubby" for 30 days. Hubby Hubby is made of fudge-covered peanut-butter filled salty pretzel wangs and vanilla cream. That's not a butt sex joke. Those are the actual ingredients.
Ben & Jerry's issued this statement of words about Hubby Hubby:
“The legalization of marriage for gay and lesbian couples in Vermont is certainly a step in the right direction, and something worth celebrating with peace, love - and plenty of ice cream."
Get Yourself Some Hubby Hubby!
Someone mentioned butt sex? Yes, please!

Getty Images Splitting Sales With Celebrity Subjects on the "DL"
It seems that Getty Images may be playing fast and loose with the ethics of photojournalism these days. Getty is sharing in the sales of images of certain celebrities with the celebrities themselves, for example, in a little-known maneuver where they just happen to be in the right place at the right tim to catch a celebrity doing something, paparazzi style. They are, unfortunately, doing this on the down-low, and that's where the ethical problem comes in.
Back in March, Photo Business News wrote - Getty Images And Paparazzi Pictures (March 9, 2009) where Getty is using different brands to distinguish between "respectable photography" and "paparazzi". Since Getty and WireImage are seen by most publicists as a "white hat" wire service, equal to the AP and Reuters, Getty/Wire doesn't want to sully their reputation with gotcha paparazzi photography so they use another of their brands to take the reputation hit.
When an image is provided to the Associated Press, for example, from someone other than their staffers or as the result of a freelance assignment, their caption is clear on the source "In this handout photo provided by AEG, pop star Michael Jackson..." begins the caption for this photo, because AEG provided to all news outlets that photograph (which, interestingly enough is also a Getty Images image but AEG had the right to distribute because they were one of the contracting parties) and they do the "in this handout photo..." all the time.
When a photographer starts a fire, and then, oh, just happens to be first on the scene to make great photos, that's called a crime. However, when a celebrity says something like 'I'll tell you where I will be so you can photograph me but you have to share all the money you get from the photos with me', and then does not disclose this arrangement in the course of their "reporting", that's bad ethics.
How is this happening?
Getty LA Entertainment staff Photographer Frazer Harrison may well not be in on the game, but here's how it works. Harrison is a staff photographer, and the photo credit for a staff photographer is "Fazer Harrison/Getty Images" or "Fazer Harrison/WireImage". In this example "Kim Kardashian And Kourtney Kardashian Go Shopping", the credit reads "Frazer Harrison/KA/WireImage", where the "KA" is the change in the credit that makes it possible for Getty to track the sales properly so that Kim KArdashian gets paid. Further, she can see exactly where "her" images appeared since they will be specially credited. How do we know that this particular revenue sharing is with Kim, and not Kourtney?
Why, because Kourtney has her own revenue sharing code "KK", as shown here - Kourtney Kardashian And Scott Disick Go Baby Shopping. "But how can you be so sure?" you might ask? Because if you check this link, you'll see that before they headed off to be "surreptitiously" photographed by the photographer, they had a portrait session with him using the same "KK" code. Harrison's images, however, are not the only Getty content where this is happening. When Getty's Florida staffer, Gustavo Caballero just happened upon a "sighting" of Kourtney and Khloe, his credit has the same code "Gustavo Vaballero/KK/Wire Image" - Khloe Kardashian And Kourtney Kardashian Sighting In Miami - June 18, 2009, and in this case, further, this image is billed as an "**EXCLUSIVE**", and further notes "(EXCLUSIVE, Premium Rates Apply)". Clicking this link it looks like Gustavo had to spend the whole day with Kourtney and Khloe doing "sightings".
It's one thing, for example, for Brad Pitt to use Getty as the distribution channel where everyone knows that he's getting money from it (and best that he donates it to charity) when they are the first photographs of his child, however, for Getty to put these images in their "editorial" category is ethically dubious, at best, without disclosure of the deal.
Getty, however, knows how to do a proper credit. When they decided not to cover the 2009 International Indian Film Academy Awards, they used the same credit style as the AP does for the images that were essentially a promotion for that organization, with Getty serving as the conduit (and picking up all the licensing fees for the ones they distributed at the same time).
Is this phenomenon new? No. Do other celebrity photo organizations do it, sadly, yes. The key is to disclose these things and be up front about them. You might suggest that this isn't "photojournalism" so who cares? Well, when the subject is a politician (like the many Congressmen) or a businessman (like Maddoff) who is marched in and out of courtrooms and photographed on the streets, we call that photojournalism, but then when a celebrity is photographed on the street, it's not the same? They are the same, and they should be subject to the same ethical guidelines and disclosures. The only real difference is that when a politician or a businessman breaks the law, or a celebrity is out for the day on the town, it is a difference between "need to know," and "want to know."

Bonus Blind! One Tongue-Shoving Blind Vice
Another weekend, another hidden Hollywood homo to uncover! This week we're offering up a treat from Team Awful—a fabulous bonus Blind too scandalously dee-lish to keep to ourselves! You didn't think that little mister Jackie Bouffant was the only young performer who liked to get all gay every once in a while, did you?
You're probably all very familiar with Maxwell Meat-Mingle. He's youngish, a little squishy but still reasonably good-looking. The guy was once a major up-and-comer in this crazy town. Even if you weren't a fan of his boob-tube hit, chances are your eyes and his abs have met at one time or another. And what's more—this isn't M3's first time to the Awful Truth rodeo.
Nowadays, though, he's something of a has-been—poor Triple-M has fallen off the charts due to a string of bad press for his bombed entertainment endeavors and tales of his less-than-stellar personality (which we've experienced firsthand, natch). Nevertheless, Max definitely started out as something of a ladies' man before he lost his boy-next-door charm and smoldering sex appeal, which is why we were almost surprised when...
Max went prowling for some guy-on-guy action. Please, where did you think this sucker was going, you little B.V. sleuths?
At a recent poolside BBQ in the hills, relatively hunky Max had his tongue halfway down the throat of another meaty little piece—right in the middle of the entire shindig! And there were some par-tick people in attendance whom bi-guy Max definitely should have looked out for! It was one of those little piggies who ran all the way home and told us about it. There goes Triple-M's die-hard status as a womanizer!
Makes sense really, 'cause we knew that Mingle had had his fair share of drug dabbling (many closeted actors do, just ask Toothy Tile). Think white nose candy literally being passed around on silver platters whenever Max was in attendance...although those days have supposedly passed. Is that why Maxwell Meat-Mingle is getting all fat? Better work on that figure, boy, if you have any chance at this planned comeback. Because secretly loving dudes and a lost six-pack surely won't give Maxwell Meat-Mingle the comeback he's dying for.
And It Ain't: Adam Brody, Jesse McCartney, Mario Lopez

Jake and drugs? NEVAH! He would never even use an Ambien as he revealed in the interview with Natalie.
Exactly! Good boy!
Thanks.
LOL, it's hilarious how he called Heath a true friend before he died, and after his death he acts like he didn't know him publicly. I bet one reason why he's keeping his distance is the drug rumors surrounding Heath.
I'm not doing any drugs, I'm a good boyfriend and good step daddy. I'm every straight woman's dream.
I'd use drugs too if I had to deal with the Chin.
I'd use drugs too if I had to deal with the Chin.
IDK if he still uses drugs or not. But I'm sure he is no stranger to drugs. His ex gf was a druggie after all.
But he presents himself as Mr. Perfect to the public, who'd never even touch a sleeping pill. It's annoying.
I'd use drugs too if I had to deal with the Chin.
Drugs and alcohol.
Blame it on the Goose, gotcha feeling loose
Blame it on the 'tron, catch me in a zone
Blame it on the a-a-alcohol

So bloody typical.
Some ONTD comments re. Interview interview
I've told you, they'll call them perfect looking geniuses. LOL.
Jake did a great job.
With just a few simple questions Jake singlehandedly managed to destroy Natalie's reputation (dirty rap) and exposed her as a liar (vegan thing).
And he needed just a half of interview to do that! lol
I have no idea if this is true, but find it interesting.
We were all given chills back in June when Paramount launched the trailer for the new Martin Scorsese-Leonardo DiCaprio thriller, Shutter Island. Two months later, we were all reminded of how awesome it looks when the trailer made its way to theaters before the showing of sci-fi sensation District 9 boasting an October release.
And now, the studio behind the highly anticipated psychological flick is pushing back its release date by four months!
Readers' comment:
Please Paramount studios under Brad Grey is in Brad Pitt's back pocket they NEVER have any money for any of the other real stars and blockbusters Michael Bay the Transformers director had to BEG Brad Grey for a marketing budget for his HUGE blockbuster which made more than any of Brad Pitt's films ever have. The stars should learn as long as Paramount is under Brad Grey (Brad Pitt's former partner and the agent who spotted him), its just a piggy bank for Brad Pitt's vanity projects
Paramout studios bought the screen rights of Night Manager which Plan B under Brad Pitt is producing, they also had money to buy the screen rights to Beautiful boy which yet AGAIN Brad Pitt is producing, and they had money to pay for Miki a manga series which YET again Brad Pitt is producing, when will the other stars learn that all their hard work and efforts are being channeled into Plan B productions, and use other studios other than Brad Pitt Piggy Bank I mean Paramount studios
Paramount Postpones Our Trip to Leo DiCaprio's Shutter Island
^^ Brad Pitt that influential? I don't know if I believe that.
No idea, but Brad Grey and Pitt are partners:
"In 2002, Brad Grey formed Plan B with Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston, with a first-look deal at Warner Bros. After Pitt and Aniston separated, Grey and Pitt moved the company to Paramount Pictures, where Grey had become CEO after Sherry Lansing left."
When I grow up I want to be Brad Pitt!
^^Well, that's interesting indeed.
Comment re. 6:7.
Maybe Brad is smarter than he looks :)
Why is so bad SI was posponed? Does autamaticaly means the film isn't good enough for the studio?
Does autamaticaly means the film isn't good enough for the studio?
I hope that's not the reason.
The official reason is that the studio doesn't have the money for promotion this year.
Is there money for Jake's and Paramount's Moon project? Brad, will you help? lol
With just a few simple questions Jake singlehandedly managed to destroy Natalie's reputation (dirty rap) and exposed her as a liar (vegan thing).
Jakey, let's hope I won't blab about your cock sucking ways during some TV interview.
Fuck!
Jakey, let's hope I won't blab about your cock sucking ways during some TV interview.
*fingers crossed that Natalie blabs*
Who doesn’t love Tim Gunn? I certainly do. But truth be told, I really don’t know that much about the man, other than the fact that he’s been co-hosting Project Runway for the past six seasons, alongside former supermodel, Heidi Klum.
Thankfully, this past Sunday’s USA Weekend Magazine offered up a profile of the fashion maven entitled “How Project Runway’s Tim Gunn Became America’s Fashion Guide.”
How nice, I thought, it was to see a gay man profiled in this very "middle of the road" publication that goes out to 49 million readers in 600 Sunday newspapers. Surely, the article would clue me in on everything relevant about Mr. Gunn!
And I did learn much in said article, including that Tim is 56-years-old. He’s the former chair of fashion design at Parsons The New School for Design and current chief creative officer for Liz Claiborne. He recently became a first-time homeowner. He is a fifth-generation Washingtonian, grew up a less than athletic nerd, and suffered from a debilitating stutter, facts that had an impact on his relationship with his father who Tim describes as a “big, jock-y FBI agent” who passed away 15 years ago.
Pretty informative, eh? But what I did not learn in the aforementioned article is that Tim Gunn is gay.
Of course, being gay myself, I just assumed this fact. “It takes one to know one,” gaydar, and all that.
But what about straight people not equipped with gaydar? How would they know Tim is gay since USA Weekend either didn’t seem to know it or care to discuss it? Surely, it's been well-documented many other places, right? After all, Project Runway is one of the most successful reality shows of the past five years.
A quick Google of “Tim Gunn gay” led me to a September 2007 article from Washington DC’s GLBT news magazine MetroWeekly entitled “Naked Gunn: Bravo's style maven and gay icon, Tim Gunn, opens up about his past challenges and present success.” Next on the list is an AfterElton.com interview from August 2007 in which Mr. Gunn talks openly about being … gay. This is followed by a 2006 mention on sogay.tribe.net of an interview Tim gave to Out in which he mentions “this guy who I loved more than myself.”
What do these profiles and interviews have in common? They are all found in “gay” media.
USA Weekend is most definitely not a gay publication. Neither is The New York Times ...
