G.I. Joe is like watching fireworks with a blindfold on: it's deafening and you feel under attack. The story makes no sense — why does the Eiffel Tower topple over after being covered in sparkling slime? And worst of all: Sienna Miller and Channing Tatum, a charismatic guy whom The New York Times once compared to Marlon Brando, have the chemistry of two ice cubes. As my mind wandered, I started to imagine ways for the director to have reinvented the franchise for the 21st century. What if the G in G.I. Joe didn't just stand for "government"? What if it also stood for "gay"?
To many G.I. Joe fans, who grew up collecting the action figures, this might be blasphemy. Who cares? The best summer action movies — The Bourne Identity, The Dark Knight — always come with tortured heroes who carry around deep secrets. Imagine the dramatic possibilities! For starters, we could ditch Sienna Miller, which would be a big improvement right from the start. Duke's (Tatum) new love interest would be a male soldier. The movie would even strike a note of social relevance, given that our troops still adhere to "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" (i.e., Duke couldn't blab about his love life to any of his friends).
Hollywood likes to cast gay characters in supporting roles, as background scenery, but they still don't anchor movies that often. You can understand the cold feet: the movie business is about selling tickets to teenage boys, and even Brüno tanked. This week, there was a storm of protest online when Robert Downey Jr. suggested his onscreen Sherlock Holmes — scheduled to hit theater screens on Christmas — might have had a gay fling with Watson (Jude Law). Gawker described the "full blown gay panic" from conservative film critic Michael Medved. "Who is going to watch Downey Jr. and Law make out?" he asked. "I don't think it would be appealing to women. Straight men don't want to see it."
Medved's off base — the Sherlock Holmes screenplay doesn't even feature a male kiss, and action heroes have been a little gay since the beginning of the genre. Look at Superman's revealing red tights. Or Batman's "friendship" with Robin. James Bond is such a good dresser, he might as well be gay (at one point, Rupert Everett even wanted to star as a gay James Bond). So maybe it's just a matter of time before we see our first openly gay action hero. At 2 a.m., I'd wasted enough of my time on G.I. Joe. But before I fled, I wanted to check in on an elderly woman who had come to see the movie alone. She looked shellshocked in the lobby, but it turned out that she was only crying tears of joy. Apparently, she couldn't wait for the sequel.
I started to back away, but it was so late that I didn't think it would hurt if I sprang my idea on her. What if, in the next movie, G.I. Joe were gay? Would she still buy a ticket? Her face lit up. "Absolutely!" she said. "Just because you're gay doesn't mean you're not powerful."

I don't think WFT or OMG has ever been mentioned in the column itself, only vague references to sites being devoted to Toothy.
Didn't Jake recently say that the actor he admires most is Ryan Gosling?
Never heard of it. The only thing I remember about Gosling from Jake is during TRL when he promoted Zodiac and was asked what recent role (from 2007) he wished he had played. He said the one Gosling played in Half Nelson and that he was great in it.
Two more weeks before Jake's professional integrity and self-esteem return for Love and Drugs. Thank you Anne, thank you Anne, thank you Anne...
Why do you thank Anne? Did she get him the role?
Jake won't be getting anything back. The Chin probably already has her set visits and photo ops scheduled already. We will just get more of the same Reeking. I do wonder if POP is badly reviewed at D23 if they will step up Reeke (how they think more Reeke would help a bad movie is a good move) or will they cool off on Reeke?
Jake won't be getting anything back. The Chin probably already has her set visits and photo ops scheduled already.
Isn't this clear for everyone here?
3:25: You have got to be kidding? Zwick is a hack, at least with Jake's similar movie Nailed, Jake had a better director and a better supporting cast like Catherine Keeneer.
Professional integrity my ass, he needs more than Anne and her recent AA nom. for that., talk about grasping for straws. It will be Reese visits to the set and Annie's BF visiting the set, LOL!!
BTW, right about a OMG poster sending that letter, but it was Destiny not M, not this time anyway. Another one of those blatant letters to s-p-e-l-l i-t o-u-t because they don't like the Austin/Robert speculation so good ole Bibby just shot it down, plus they don't like Austin/Sophia thing, even though it's just PR.
So immature.
The Chin probably already has her set visits and photo ops scheduled already.
So what? The chin won't be staying in Pittsburgh.
Dear Ted:
On the blog Waiting for Toothy, we named the Austin Nichols/Robert Buckley pairing "Buckin." Buckin is the best thing that happened to the Toothy tale since Toothy became this closeted boring guy and is parading his unpleasant beard nonstop. It's great news that Gray Goose wised up and said a big "f--k you" to Toothy choosing a hotter man! We count on you for the dish and info about them.
—Melanie
Dear Buckin Stops Here:
Thanks, babe, but what makes you think you have everything so neatly figured out?
Melanie,
what do you think about Ted's answer?
M, Destiny, SK, etc all post here , anon. of course except for PG. Destiny posted the Hugh Jackman link.
3:37: she won't, eh?
3:41: "Melanie" is happy that Ted shot down the great Austin/Robert romance, LOL!!!
3:37: she won't, eh?
Of course she won't, what would the beard do 2 months in Pittsburgh?!
"what would the beard do 2 months in Pittsburgh?!"
Why not?
Is not like she has a 9 to 5 job that she is required to fulfill
Exactly 4:07.
What would be the point of beard's staying in Pittsburgh when her kids are in LA?
^^I bet they'll be mostly with Ryan during the 2 months shoot of LAOD.
Ok. What would be the purpose of Reese's staying in Pittsburgh, why would she do that?
awcrap: I just bumped into Reese Witherspoon at Whole Foods for the third time. (36 minutes ago)
How much grocery shopping do they do?!
Stop spinning trolly. I did not write the letter to Ted, and I did not post the Hugh Jackman link.
4:25 PM
Don't believe everything you read on Twitter. Remember Jake in NYC x 2 fakes?
I saw on E that Reese has a personal chef, is it possible that Jake's friend Chris could be the chef? If not I wonder if the chef is male and hot because Jake does like to cook.
I don´t think Ted is shutting down Bukin. I think “Buckin stops here” in this context means “Bukin arrives to or stays (stops) in the awful truth (here)”. The rest of the answer with a “thanks” (Ted is taking credit for the info) and “what makes you think you have everything so neatly figured out” (cheeky confirmation) means that Melanie got all that info from the hints made by the awful truth. I think Ted in his usual play with words, is affirming in a cheeky way that Melanie´s scenario is the right one. He is outing Austin as Goose (and by default Toothy as Jake) and hinting that Austin is involved with Robert. This is how I read Ted´s reply.
This is how I read Ted´s reply.
You can't be serious?! FYI Comprehension isn't comprised of just reading words, making assumptions and wish-fulfillment.
"Don't believe everything you read on Twitter"
Who said I did?! No funny twitters can be posted either? Loosen up, will ya.
Geez, why are you so touchy?
I saw on E that Reese has a personal chef, is it possible that Jake's friend Chris could be the chef?
No.
BTW, in interviews Reese claims that she cooks at home.
If not I wonder if the chef is male and hot because Jake does like to cook.
Huh? What do you mean?
You know all these trips to the food store make no sense as well as the lunches and dinners out in LA/Venice/Santa Monica if you have a personal chef?
Is it not the job of the personal chef to do the grocery shopping? Unless she fired the chef since the initial airing of the E special about the Forbes Hollywood list.
"No.
BTW, in interviews Reese claims that she cooks at home."
Then why a personal chef and dinners out all the time? Is just for status sake?
"If not I wonder if the chef is male and hot because Jake does like to cook.
Huh? What do you mean?"
Jake is/was a foodie, it likes to cook so I have read and seen on Ellen and the Food Network.
Geez, why are you so touchy?
Because I don't need a frigging lecture "Don't believe everything you read on Twitter" blah blah blah from you every time I post or comment on a twitter. This especially was a funny twitter not a serious Reeke sighting and you have to do your condescending spiel...sheesh.
With all due respect 4:53 PM, you aren't alone on this blog, things are posted and commented for ALL readers.
"If not I wonder if the chef is male and hot because Jake does like to cook."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"Jake is/was a foodie, it likes to cook so I have read and seen on Ellen and the Food Network."
^^ Yes we know he likes to cook. But what does "I wonder if the chef is male and hot because Jake does like to cook" have to do with Jake cooking and if the chef is male and hot??!!
Then why a personal chef and dinners out all the time? Is just for status sake?
Dinners out all the time = fauxmance publicity.
How would the public know that Reeke is a "couple" if they don't see paparazzi pictures of them together? :)
I had breakfast next to Jake Gyllenhaal and Reese Witherspoon yesterday.
True, this has absolutely nothing to do with garlic or my post, but I can’t stop thinking about it and thought it was a good attention grabber.
Okay – it’s out of my system. We can proceed. However, for all of you wondering, they are both as good looking – if not more so – than they appear on the big screen.
sighting
^^^ I don't think so, lol.
With all due respect 4:53 PM, you aren't alone on this blog, things are posted and commented for ALL readers.
Yes I know. But 4:29 directed the "Don't believe everything you read on Twitter" lecture TO ME, the original poster of the twitter:
4:25 PM
Don't believe everything you read on Twitter. Remember Jake in NYC x 2 fakes?
Can we all get past the "Don't believe everything you read on Twitter" reminders and accept the Twitter postings the same as how we all know that all the comments here are opinions, not fact? I think by now those things are a given. Just like how the beginning of each comment doesn't need to start with "IMO" the Twitters don't have to carry a warning that they might not be true, either.
Can we accept that all people don't read all comments and it's good to repeat some things from time to time? Why would that be a bad thing?
But 4:29 directed the "Don't believe everything you read on Twitter" lecture TO ME, the original poster of the twitter
What's so terrible about it? You even agree with that comment.
I do wonder if POP is badly reviewed at D23 if they will step up Reeke (how they think more Reeke would help a bad movie is a good move) or will they cool off on Reeke?
Reeking can't influence anything right now, it's too early for that kind of PoP promotion.
At the moment only gamers and actors fans are really interested in a movie from May 2010 - and gamers don't care about Reeke photo ops.
Can we accept that all people don't read all comments and it's good to repeat some things from time to time?
Umm okay... you're CYA on this aren't you. The OP isn't part of the "people don't read all comments and it's good to repeat some things from time to time" so they don't need you to address them in the post with your helpful hint.
Oh fuck I give up. Some of you are complete nitpicking morons.
Overreacting doesn't help :)

I don't see anything wrong with the letter. You are free to ask what you want, the rest is up to Ted.

^^ DISCLAIMER: Don't believe everything you read on Twitter.
Hey, I was going to offer congrats to whoever submitted the letter to Ted and exposing Bucnic to more of the masses. I couldn't believe it when I saw that.
But no one knows who sent the letter in, huh? I've gotten only 1 of mine published. I've sent in 3 times so I'm batting .333. I would admit it if I had sent it in. I just figured someone from WFT2 sent it in since that's who was mentioned in it.
Anyway, I thought it was awesome, but then it doesn't take a whole lot to get me all excited. There's pleasure in the small things as well.

Dear Ted:
You're slippin', my man. Why no dirt on the alleged hookup between Jake Gyllenhaal and Reese Witherspoon? Other gossips seem to be talking about it—but if anyone knows what's going on it's you. So, what's up?
Jeff

Dear Doubting Debbies:
I haven’t said anything because we’ve yet to see the two of them even snapped together. The proof (on occasion) is in the pics, pumpkin. Right now, it’s all speculation, and it smells a bit Jennifer Aniston-Vince Vaughn to moi.
June 5, 2007
Dear Ted:
I think you entirely missed the point about Jake and Reese's trip to the doctor together. There is only one reason that a new couple goes to the doctor together. Think about it. Hint: It rhymes with hex. I never believed the whole Reese-Jake thing—but I definitely do now. Did you hear about their rendezvous in Paris after Jake finished with all his Zodiac stuff at Cannes? Did you see the photos of Reese following Jake's car back to her place?
Jeff
Los Angeles
Dear Cannes-vinced:
I haven’t heard a thing about Reese in Paris, so no idea what hookup you’re referring to. And like I say, the proof is in the pics. Why haven’t the omnipresent paps managed to get one shot of them together off set if they’re so hot 'n’ heavy?"
August 14, 2007
Dear Ted:
When are you going to start reporting about Reese and Jake's reconciliation? You can't say there is no photographic evidence anymore. It's time to join the Reese & Jake party—we want to know what's going on there!

Dear Het Bet:
Lemme guess. You also want more gab on Rachel Bilson ’n’ Hayden Christensen, too, right?
January 8 2008
Dear Ted:
Whatever credibility you had left, and it isn't much, is evaporating quickly. Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal are low-key in that they spend most of their time indoors. You don't see it because you don't want to, simple. Reading you is like watching the Titanic sink! New photos, new bulls--t. Fool!
Jeff

Dear Don't Call Me Kathy Bates:
Alas, my (hard) heart will go on, quite unlike Reese and Jake.
It wasn't me. Even if someone says it was them, how we gonna know?! We're all anons!!
I just figured someone from WFT2 sent it in since that's who was mentioned in it.
I agree :)
Jack/Jeff troll writes like UV or FL.
^^^ You are talking about troll's "Dear Ted" letters, right?
4:56: How old is that E interview with Reese? They have a habit of piecing together old clips for "Bio's". She doesn't have a movie coming out so I can't imagine why she would be inyerviewed.
6:16, yes the letters. Not the WFT troll comments, unless they're sipping ant poison.

Waiting for Toothy + Austin is faithful to Jake. Awww!
Jackie, I don't know if you would be able to tell if there's an increase in site traffic (because of the Ted letter) or if you would even want to say if there is/isn't a change, but if you don't mind I'm sure we would like to know if the letter is getting more hits for WFT. Thanks.
Jack/Jeff troll writes like UV or FL.
UV/FL reading Ted's column and writing Dear Ted letters? Interesting. Shall we ask them to confirm? :)

The clueless Toothy-guessers who read Ted:
1. Will see that Gray Goose is either Austin Nichols or Robert Buckley.
2. Will visit the blog Waiting for Toothy and see that Toothy is Jake Gyllenhaal, his bf Gray Goose is Austin Nichols of One Tree Hill, and Toothy/Jake's unpleasant beard is Reese Witherspoon.
Thanks Ted!
Shall we ask them to confirm?
Sure! Go over to Babble and write your inquiry in a comment. We'll be here taking bets on how many seconds it will stay up.
Oops. and Thanks Melanie!
"4:56: How old is that E interview with Reese? They have a habit of piecing together old clips for "Bio's". She doesn't have a movie coming out so I can't imagine why she would be inyerviewed"
It wasn't a formal interview, it was the Forbes Hollywood list that came out a few months ago, where Reese placed 71 out of the top 100 most influential in entertainment.
It was stated she spent $1000.00 a week for the nanny and $25,000 for the personal chef (monthly I believe) or I heard and saw wrong for that salary. And the piece on her did mention Jake and her kids as a family. They supposedly spent 20,000 a week on their vacation in Mexico, well Reese did anyway. The list is from june 2008-june 2009.
She must have fired the personal chef because what's the point of having one if you do all the food shopping unless it is PR.
We'll be getting a fuckload of trolls saying Ted is full of shit. Not today, because that'll reveal that they're avid Ted TT readers and they don't want to blow that cover. Tomorrow and later this week.
Sure! Go over to Babble and write your inquiry in a comment.
I know! If we post nice, polite question on DCF maybe it won't be deleted right away :)
They supposedly spent 20,000 a week on their vacation in Mexico, well Reese did anyway.
LOL, bullshit. BTW, they were there less than a week.
It was stated she spent $1000.00 a week for the nanny and $25,000 for the personal chef (monthly I believe) or I heard and saw wrong for that salary. And the piece on her did mention Jake and her kids as a family. They supposedly spent 20,000 a week on their vacation in Mexico, well Reese did anyway.
If it's true, she spends $4k a month for the nanny and 25k a month for a chef? Six times more for a cook than for her children's care, sad but LOL.
"The piece on her did mention Jake and her kids as a family." Yeah it was PR crap. It wouldn't be consistent after the "JAKE MOVES IN!" cover for her to tally up the costs for her and 2 kids LOL.
"They supposedly spent 20,000 a week on their vacation in Mexico." Bullshit! We all saw pics of the hotel/resort and it was blech. Were they even there a week? Remember the pics of Jake sitting on the edge of a drained pool or whatever it was? Awful. It was Acapulco Ghetto. IMO she got that trip for free, probably from when she bought the Ojai house. It looked like one of those "Listen to our timeshare sales pitch and we'll give you a free trip" deals.
It was stated she spent $1000.00 a week for the nanny and $25,000 for the personal chef
When rag writers call Reese a "working mom" I wouldn't mind them getting hit by a bus (well not really, but you get the point).
Spending $20,000 on that Mexico vacation isn't that far fetched. They had 6 first class round trip tickets (Reese, kids, Jake, nanny and her boyfriend), the private villa, meals, transportation, activities and shopping. The airfare alone is about $1000 each person. And before anyone cries babbler, I work in the travel industry.
LMAO!! 7:09, we both called "Bullshit!" on the $20,000 Mexico trip! LOL!
You JUST KNOW Reese charged the nanny for her part of the trip and deducted it from her paycheck, calling it a vacation. LOL
$20,000
- 6 tickets @1,000 = $6,000
_________
$14,000 for ??
LOL
BTW, right about a OMG poster sending that letter
Someone from OMG wouldn't write Ted a letter pimping out this blog. Use your head.
Reese Witherspoon is a pathological liar.
Remember when she made up getting paid 29 million for a movie that was never filmed?
OMG posters cross post over here all the time: SK, M, Destiny, Tom, etc. They used WFT instead of OMG because of toothy in the name, otherwise it wouldn't probably be posted. They knew that, they are getting m ore anxious/paranoid than usual with Sophin all over the place!!!
Bushnic is all over the place?! Where?
Sophin sweetie, stop trying to make Bushnic happen, the real OTH fans cal them Sophin and there is nothing you can do anout it no matter how many OTH sites you register at.
Spoon-feeding Ted info and using Bushnic in the letters ain't gonna work either.
Bushnic sounds like some freeper, Bush supporter would make up!
OTH new season is next week, brace yourself, there was amention in this week's Us about them.
Sophin forever, LOL!!
Narcissists usually are pathological liars. It goes hand-in-hand with making themselves look good and they have no remorse about lying. I honestly believe Reese is a narcissist: everything and everyone including her kids, is used as an extension to enhance herself. It all revolves around her. I grew up with a narcissistic mother so I can pretty much recognize it in others. After looking at pics of 3 years of Reeking, IMO it's definately there.
7:39, 7:51.. The trolls are starting LOL.
Oh, and sorry, I called it Bushnic and it was Buckin. I knew that; I don't know why I said that because it was right there in front of my face.
19:39, unless you have a Sitemeter of your own with everyone's IP addresses, that statement really is just way out there and totally disregardable.
If no one fesses up, maybe someone on Ted's staff made it up? I wonder if they ever do that? I think it's a good plug for WFT2.
Well, hopefully it's a good "plug" for you. I hope it doesn't bring too many obnoxious scoffers. That stuff is a real pain.
We'll send the obnoxious troll and babbler overflow to OMG!
"They supposedly spent 20,000 a week on their vacation in Mexico, well Reese did anyway.
Sorry, let me revise my statement, the piece said where they stayed (the hotel/retreat/island) cost 20,000 a week.
where they stayed (the hotel/retreat/island) cost 20,000 a week.
In pesos.
OT sad but LOL Matt Gubler.
Personal chef? What happened to all those Italian cooking lessons Jake supposedly paid for. Just one more lie among many.
Maybe to keep him out of trouble Reeke hired Papa G as a chef and it turns out all he does is barbecue and recite his poetry at every meal!
LOL they always spell the beard's name right but they don't know what his is.
^^^^Jack Gyllenhaal - LOL
Very surprised that we didn't get more Reeke photo ops over the holiday weekend. After their summer long dry spell, the first thing Chinny did when she hot back to LA was a coffee/shopping stroll photo op. Since the Flynet yougurt shop pics taken the next day haven't been seen we know that they will be this weeks cover story in US Weekly-the only tabloid Reeke PR seems able to buy space in. Wonder if the negtative comments about their tea stroll and the nasty comments and little interest the Jake beauty store pics 2 days later had Reeke pull back.
I don't think PR is doing such microplanning - changing reeking plans based on online comments.

Let's wait till PoP Jakey, maybe you'll become the household name you always wanted to become. ;)
Jake is working?! I'm shocked! lol
It'll be interesting to see them promoting their film together. Last time he was too busy eyefucking Heath to really notice her. And Anne didn't seem too hot for him either, when she mentioned working with good people like Heath and Michelle, she didn't mention her movie hubby. Let's see if they beome BFF's this time around. ;)
Unless there's a male actor they'll be fighting over.
Watch out Anne. Jake will scratch your eyes out.
Do you know who's Heath Gyllenhaal? :)

Heath Gyllenhaal is gay porn actor's artistic name.
Heath was good at eyefucking too:
eyefuck
Jake ef Heath

LMAO, I didn't know that.
Heath was good at eyefucking too
Maybe Heath Gyllenhaal was inspired by photos like that? :)
Maybe Heath Gyllenhaal was inspired by photos like that? :)

Anne is gorgeous, but let's be realistic - with me around she doesn't stand a chance!
American Idol vet Jim Verraros tied the knot with entrepreneur Bill Brennan on Sunday (September 6) at the Oak Brook Hills Resort in Illinois.
“Every little choice reflected who we are,” Jim told People. “It was the most beautiful day. Gay marriage is not legal in Illinois but we wanted the day to be a reflection of our love and commitment to each other as well as a statement to other gay couples in Illinois.”
Jim, 26, finished ninth on Idol’s first season and met Bill four years ago on MySpace. For more on Jim and Bill’s special day, visit MyWedding.com.

Kirsten Dunst and a female friend stroll out and about in the SoHo neighborhood of New York City on Labor Day (Monday, September 7).
The 27-year-old actress and two pals spent the other night at the Jane Hotel, dancing and smoking — but not drinking. “She had two bodyguards hovering over her at all times who were monitoring her,” a spy tells Page Six. “Still, she looked like she was having fun.”

Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal, treating the actress's kids Ava, 10, and Deacon, 5, to a cold treat at Twist in Brentwood, Calif. "Jake was great with the kids and they all shared little samples before deciding on flavors," an eyewitness tell us of the family frozen yogurt outing. But with dessert comes exercise – and earlier in the week, the couple took an exercise class at Burn 60, focusing on arm and shoulder work, as well as cardio. "The air conditioning wasn't on and in the 90 degree heat, Reese and Jake sweated and struggled like the rest of the class," an onlooker says, adding that the famous duo "seemed to enjoy" their workout.

TWO bodyguards? No wonder Kiki couldn't get a drink!
Sweating and raising her arms in 90F degree heat, Reese "I don't shower everyday" Witheredpoon gave everyone in the class an additional workout when they had to hold their breath for an hour.
Ewww... fortunately, this never happened, lol.
the air conditioning wasn't on and in the 90 degree heat...
Who writes this bullshit???
To be fair the SoCal heatwave the last 2 weeks has knocked out a lot of AC's from the overload so I wouldn't be surprised to hear that it was out of order.
Btw 90 degrees last week was in the morning at 9 am, LOL. At noon it was around 106, in the shade.

^^What the Ukrainians answered when asked if they wanted to see Nailed.
Wait, Reeke was able to go to Burn 360 again and leave and they didn't have to have the owner walk them to their car with a calvacade of paps outside waiting for them like last time? How is that possible? Did the heat knock out all the phones at Reese's PR firm?

Turkish: Pis koku
It was so hot even the paps told Reeke to fuck off.
Wait, Reeke was able to go to Burn 360 again and leave and they didn't have to have the owner walk them to their car with a calvacade of paps outside waiting for them like last time? How is that possible?
Piece of cake!
No Reeke on the new Us Weekly cover
Didn't know that Gosling and Kiki have a film coming out in December "All Good Things". I read they had a litte fling during filming. Kiki seems to have a faible for most of her male co stars. ;)
Jake was great with the kids
LOL he walks 6 feet ahead in a hurry to get to the car so he can get this PR pap crap over with.
^^I think he wanted to avoid being photographed with them together. He probably knows that they'll write crap like he's the better father than Ryan or other fans crying, "but he should be with Matilda and Michelle, damn it!!!"
I read they had a litte fling during filming.
Made up, a bit of PR for the movie, Kiki and Ryan.
PR for the movie?! More like a knife in the back for Jake from Look-Who-I'm-Fucking-And-You-Aren't Kiki!
Jake could give two-shits about junkie Kiki. And Who the hell thought taht Reeke was going to be on the cover of Us?? More speculation/fanfic? Neither has anything to promote, it's too soon for Brothers and Avon PR is no reason for a cover. You girls get excited over nothing. That one pic will probably be used for a filler story, nothing more.
BTW: Reese is on record as saying that sometimes she either has her kids walk ahead of her, or she does so that paps don't get their $$$ shot. She did the same thing when she was with Ryan, having him walk ahead and she does it with Jake and I've seen her do it with her mother. When she doesn't want the pap attention she does this. So him walking ahead was because she told him to not because he was walking away, I thought you knew this.
The only way they are going to get a cover story on any of the rags is when they announce that they are engaged and getting married. the rest is boring even for them. The Venice pics, one anyway was featured inside of Us. There only seems to be one pic of them and the kids last week it seems.
More like a knife in the back for Jake from Look-Who-I'm-Fucking-And-You-Aren't Kiki!
Nah, Kiki didn't make any effort to support "dating Ryan" rumors.
Ryan is too good for Kiki.
He should hook up with Michelle, his co star in Blue Valentine. Pity she already is dating Spike Jonze, with whom we rarely see her though. Trouble in paradise? Is there a chance for sexy Ryan and Michelle. TBC...;)
So him walking ahead was because she told him to not because he was walking away, I thought you knew this.
Of course Reese did NOT tell him anything like that, lol. BTW, they were doing "family" photo op with Flynet.
Reese did it (walking ahead) with Ryan, either she or he walked ahead, and now Jake does it too. I've noticed it when that bitch was still married to that short douchbag. Two stinkers, shame they seperated.
You girls get excited over nothing.
Excited? No, just making guesses and predictions and brainstorming. Nothing wrong with that. You aren't very open to throwing ideas around, are you? It's just fun, not dogma.
You say everyone here gets excited over nothing?! You already inspected the new Us Reekly for Reeke stories and pics. LOL
The Venice pics, one anyway was featured inside of Us.
Reese did it (walking ahead) with Ryan, either she or he walked ahead, and now Jake does it too.
What are you talking about?
Jake doesn't walk ahead, they walk together and very often hold hands to make a point of "being together".
So him walking ahead was because she told him to not because he was walking away, I thought you knew this.
9:12 #1 knows EVERYTHING!!
"Ryan is too good for Kiki.

Ryan is a pussy hunter (pardon my french), he just plays the "nice guy" much better than other HW heartthrob, but he is a manwhore just like any young actor
After the Heath fiasco, Michelle is doing the right thing: dating an older,fugly but oddly sexy man who knows he is under her league and feels lucky to have her
I think,finally, she is the one in control in a relationship ;)
Pity she already is dating Spike Jonze, with whom we rarely see her though.
The more I learn about Spike, the more I like him.

Not always, if you check their pics on ihj, you'll notice either of them sometimes goes ahead of the other.

Hm, maybe you're right.

Maybe they weren't dating, just fucking? Wouldn't surprise me with them. ;)

I'm trying to get away from the smell of Reese "I don't shower every day" Witheredpoon. Can you fucking blame me.
Ryan Gosling is gay and Kiki is still a junkie.
If that was a Flynet photo-op we would have seen more pics and not that one with exclusive/no internet use tagged on it. If there are more and they are saving it for some rag, then they would have not posted that one pic. True it wasn't tagged at first but I think that was not really a Flynet pic, but someone sent it in, fan/cellphone pic? Sold it to Flynet and they just posted it on their site, The exclusive/no internet use was slapped on it after the fact to prevent sites like IHJ from posting them probably as per PR because they are not photo-op pics.
Same thing with that one pic from late 2007 of them and the kids in SF while she was filming. One pic and IHJ did post it, they got it from a fan site and it was a pic someone took of thenm and posted on a site and IHJ found it. You noticed that it never appeared any where else. Or the Ojai pic from July of them, another fan pic that didn't appear or was mention any where excpet the Jake blogs.
Maybe they weren't dating, just fucking?
Please.
Same thing with that one pic from late 2007 of them and the kids in SF while she was filming.
Bullshit.
Latest Reeke photo op picture is posted on the OFFICIAL Fynet site. Flynet is paparazzi agency. Very simple indeed.
Since when is Gosling gay? He seemed very in love with Rachel Macadams and seems quite the ladies man. Never heard gay rumors about him. Not every actor in Hollywood is gay.
The exclusive/no internet use was slapped on it after the fact to prevent sites like IHJ from posting them probably as per PR because they are not photo-op pics.
Flynet is selling their pictures, no one can just take and post them.
because they are not photo-op pics
WTF??? You must be joking.
Their Flynet photo-ops are usually posted elsewhere even if they are "exclusive". If they are selling them then that would explain the no internet use because they wouldn't be able to sell them if they all turned up on IHJ and JJ so there must be more than one pic I would assume.
There were/are plenty of gay rumors surrounding both Ryan and Rachel while they were living in Silverlake, he still lives there.
They were bearding for each other just like Justin and Jessica. No not every actor in HW is gay but Ryan is.
You need to search elsewhere for your gossip instead of going to the same ole stale places.
I find it too funny when Ted attempts to "in" actors like Ryan and Leo, he MUST know.
8:49 am, you are jumping the gun. Reeke isn't on the cover of US but I'm still sure that the Flynet pics are on the inside with a story about how loving and wonderful they all are. When the mag hits the stands we shall see.
And *gag*
I agree about Leo, he's either closeted gay or bi, but Ryan Gosling...I still don't think so.
Their Flynet photo-ops are usually posted elsewhere even if they are "exclusive". If they are selling them then that would explain the no internet use because they wouldn't be able to sell them if they all turned up on IHJ and JJ so there must be more than one pic I would assume.
Just to be clear - ALL paparazzi pictures from ALL paparazzi agencies are for sale, you can't get any picture from paparazzi agency without paying. JJ and IHJ are buying paparazzi pictures.
P.S. Paparazzi agency decides which pictures and under what conditions are for sale.
There's a drug forum I go to look at (not post) on the web. Everything you ever wanted to know about illegal substances. No one even says "I" or "me" in their posts because it's that touchy. They all say SWIM "Someone Who Isn't Me" so they don't incriminate themselves. Anyway it's surprising how many straight guys there admit to having or desiring gay sex. Because getting high brought the urge out, or they were uninhibited during using a certain drug or for trading sex for drugs or money. Anyway what I'm getting to is that with all the prolific drug activity in HW I doubt there's lines being drawn between gay and straight. I think most people there especially under the right circumstances (creative types, drugs, hunger for success) are pretty much open to anything.

I think so too, but I expected to see small picture on the cover.

I agree.

Are they straight? Why would a straight guy want gay sex, do they have an explanation for that?
I'm a straight woman and had a crush on another girl during High School and even had erotic fantasies about her. It happens.
Sexuality is not always black or white.
After I wrote that at 10:25 I realized shit, with a lot of one drug, a little bit of another drug and some of that drug and enough desperation, Jake COULD be fucking his beard or even his PR. God I hope not. But IF he is doing hardcore stuff for whatever reasons to make it thru the day or to pretend to be someone else, no wonder why he's been deteriorating somewhat physically and in his demeanor the last 2 years. Its thoughts like these that make me hope there is a BT because it would give him a reason to take care of himself. Not always but there's a better chance when your kid needs you to be around.
"Why would a straight guy want gay sex, do they have an explanation for that?"
Did you read it at 10:25? Because getting high brought the urge out, or they were uninhibited during using a certain drug or for trading sex for drugs or money.
I don't even use sleeping pills, let alone illegal stuff!!!!!!!!
Eeeewwww. There isn't a drug powerful enough to make Jake f*ck the Chin.
Why would a straight guy want gay sex, do they have an explanation for that?
Because he's not 100% straight and drugs lower inhibitions and enhance sex drive?
Drugs may loose some people up and they are more courageous to experiment. Some other people are courageous enough to "try out" w/o drugs.
10:46 AM, there's most likely no BT.
Because getting high brought the urge out, or they were uninhibited during using a certain drug or for trading sex for drugs or money.
Straight sex is sex too :)
Ewwwwww!

Apparently? Either he was there and ordered a coffee,or he wasn't.
Is in town = staying in Pittsburgh?

12 more days. Thank you, Anne.
More proof ther is no BT. If he is in Pittsburgh it's prolly for pre-prodction for Love&drugs and to get settled into his place while filming. He would'n do that almost 2 weeks before shooting and Austin is in NC right now.
Are they going to shoot LAOD in Pittsburgh? Isn't Reese shooting in Pittsburgh too?
Yes. No, the beard is in Philly.
He would'n do that almost 2 weeks before shooting and Austin is in NC right now.
Jake had 8 months of free time.
Jake is the star of the Love&drugs, but he's not the only one who works on this movie - someone else is paying and defining the rules and schedules.
Dear Ted:
Why do people refer to Reese Witherspoon as the "beard"?
—Chin
Dear Cover-Up:
Sorry, I'm not familiar with that term.
Dear Ted:
On Aug. 28, Toothy Tile was said to have been Nikki Reed...Just wondering why people are still trying to guess who it is?!
–Kara
Dear Transgender:
Even we're not cruel enough to call Nikki a man. Physiologically speaking, it's impossible for her to be Toothy. Unless you know something we don't?
Awful Truth
Dear Ted:
Why do people refer to Reese Witherspoon as the "beard"?
—Chin
LMAO!
Dear Ted:
I've been reading your blolum since Toothy was a virgin, but I've never asked a Q before now. So, to make up for it I have three: 1. You have said that Toothy has a beard, so does she know she is a beard? 2. Has she ever been a beard for another guy before? 3. Do you think Toothy will marry this beard? Thanks for the bitching!
—Jelpoohbear
Dear Genie Ted:
Yes, Toothy's beard knows what she is. And yes, she's familiar with men who play for both teams. And yes, I could see Toothy selling out and marrying the beard. For Baby Tile's sake.
Both Jake and Reese are in PA, she in Philly and him in Pittsburgh(yuck!). If prduction peopl say he has to be in Pitt. before actual filming, pre-production stuff then he has no choice. Makes you wonder if he plans on going to that Disney expo on Friday or is he just going to stay in PA.
I also think that he sold his home in HH, he is hardly stays there. Makes more sense fro him to buy a smaller place and I think he did in Venice, CA. Six months in PA: Philly/Pitt. July -Dec and before that : DC, NY, Europe. If he has a financial advisor I bet they told him to sell the place, probably in someone else's name to avoid taxes.
Dear Ted:
There are only 11 comments on the Bitch-Back with LeAnn and Eddie, and I already know that with that one answer you gave regarding Twyla Babe-Sucker's problems not really being over you have started a massive disturbance. Now everyone will say Twyla can't be Kristen, and everyone will think she is TTT and bisexual. As if this girl (and I mean girl) needs any more s—t right now. I love you, Ted, but you were so wrong this time. So wrong. Wait until you see the boards explode. They are waiting to destroy her.
—Allison
Dear Ticking Twyla:
I hardly think the Bitch-back was a giveaway either way. You sound as cranky-certain as Reese Witherspoon is with her damn whip, already.
If he has a financial advisor I bet they told him to sell the place, probably in someone else's name to avoid taxes.
Why would anyone pay taxes if cheating is so easy and crime free?
Makes you wonder if he plans on going to that Disney expo on Friday
Jake works for Disney - he'll be there if Disney wants him there.
Jerry doesn't accept no as an answer!
I bet Disney sent him off to PA early so they'd have an excuse for his not being there.
And how in the heck does marrying the Chin help BT. Is she going to then give birth to a toddler?
Doesn't make sense, I agree. Who will write Ted and ask? Melanie? :)
Ted is full of shit and he knows it. BT my ass, marriage my ass. He can say TT is going to get a sex change operation and some will actually believe because: Ted would'nt lie, he has his reputation as a gossip columnist!" LOL!!
What are you going to do? Turn him over to the gossip police? The LOTR long abandoned him after they realized he was was using their "speculation" and even slash forom their LJ's ( Thanks interns)for his "inside sources".
Give the audience what they want,!!!
I bet Jake is a no-show on Friday, just Jerry I bet.
Hi Jack/Jeff troll.
You gotta love Ted. Even though he really doesn't have any new info on Reeke and Jake, just printing that letter with beard, Reese and chin all together along with his answer to Cover up is hysterical. Ted and his staff must have been rolling on the floor laughing. You go Ted!
