«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 400 of 1565 Newer› Newest»Hey, I'm doing Sesame Street and Jimmy Something show! I'm contributing!
^^
SCREW YOU, Jake!
sorry, I had to say it :(
So what if it was part of promo? Most actors do that. Get real!
Now look what you've done!
Prior to Release, ‘Brothers’ Director Blames America’s ‘State of Denial’ For Flop
Most actors do that.
That doesn't make it respectable.
So what if it was part of promo? Most actors do that.
There is a difference between cheap and classy hooker.
I'm doing Sesame Street and Jimmy Something show!
No magazine or newspaper interviews with Jake?
Look at the JustJared headlines. One reads "Jake and Reese still together". This was totally to promote Reeke (JIS) the film.
^^Reeke (JIS) and the film.
Does anyone remember ABU GHRAIB prison torture pics??? That was fucking real!
And I should be scared of Tobey Macguire's character because he yells and throws things to the walls?
Brothers movie will be a piece of shit, no doubt.
Lets Talk Jake & Reese
Over the weekend there were reports in Kneepads that Jake Gyllenhaal and Reese Witherspoon had ended their "relationship." One thing Kneepads has going for it is they are extremely accurate especially when reporting breakups. They don't like to make anyone mad and so they probably had about ten sources for the story. Well, later in the weekend the reps for both Reese & Jake said the story isn't true and are still very much a couple. Uh huh.
I'm a little slow today, but I can't remember the last time I saw reps rushing out and saying that a couple was still a couple. Usually they don't care enough to respond. Why is this time different? Why is this couple different? Now, as you may recall, Jake has a new movie coming out. Prince Of Persia or something like that which is supposed to do a lot of business. Now, does he get more publicity by trotting out Reese again for another publicity tour or does he get more by breaking up and finding someone new just in time for the press tour? By saying they are still a couple then there really is no drama or zing it is just the same old same old.
Has anyone seen them together lately? I don't specifically go looking for pictures of them together and every picture I have seen of Reese she was flying solo. I think they did something on Halloween together, but prior to that it had been awhile as well. I am trying to figure out the angle here, but I can't. Any ideas?
CDAN
Lamey:"But Jake doesn’t have a lot riding on Brothers."
He's doing it for the team, dearest Lamey!
"they are actually going to get married and People will get the exclusive news by making free publicity for them during Brothers/Avon promo."
thats being a horrible thought of mine
Have Reese and Jake Discovered Each Other’s Vices?
Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal have reportedly called it quits. Raise your hand if anyone's surprised. Yeah, thought so.
The Holy Grail of Gossip (and of Gyllenspoon), People, reported yesterday that Gyllenspoon were no more, but quickly added comment from both Reese's and Jake's reps saying the two are still together. Gosh, we feel all better now, how 'bout you?
But why did it look like Jake's assistant was moving some of his stuff out of Reese's Brentwood home?
X17 reports Jake's assistant wheeled two large suitcases out of the house and took them over to Gyllenhaal's abode.
This split should hardly come as a shock to anyone, considering both Reese and Jake are Blind Vice Superstars.
That's right, sweet little Reese Witherspoon has starred in her own Blind Vice, and we all know Jake Gyllenhaal has, too—and then some.
How can any relationship work when both of these darlings are hiding some very deep secrets?
Probably the question many of you want to know is whether Reese and Jake know about each other's indiscretions.
The answer to that is yes. To an extent. R and J are hardly discussing their deep secrets over coffee, but both pretty pusses knew what they were getting into when this hardly hot 'n' heavy love affair began a couple of years ago (feels like centuries to us, quite frankly).
Le sigh. Successful Hollywood relationships can hardly survive on hidden agendas and caffeine alone. But we doubt we'll have to mourn Gyllenspoon too long. These two need each other more than you know. It's just up in the air as to what they will both do about it.
The Awful Truth

Duh! lol

Inside Story: Reese and Jake's Ups and Downs
People Magazine
^Inside Story: Reese and Jake's Ups and Downs
By Charlotte Triggs
While the precise status of the Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal relationship remains unclear – over the weekend a source close to the actress told PEOPLE the couple had split, a claim denied by their reps – the two have certainly had their share of highs and lows during their two-year relationship.
Witherspoon, 33, told close friends around Thanksgiving that she and Gyllenhall, also 33, had broken up, says the source. She was seen driving alone in Los Angeles over the weekend, then on Sunday she was spotted at the Whiskey Kitchen in Nashville – without Gyllenhaal.
As a couple, the last time they were seen together was two weeks ago, when they spent time in Philadelphia (where Reese is shooting a yet-to-be-titled movie with Oscar-winning director James L. Brooks) and in Pittsburgh (where Jake is shooting his new movie, Love and Other Drugs).
Jake Wanted to Wed
"As much as everyone thinks they're right there, they're really not near the whole marriage thing," a source close to the couple told PEOPLE last spring. "Jake would marry her tomorrow, but Reese doesn't want to go there yet, even though he would like to."
The source adds: "There's a huge attraction between them, and they've becomes a team, partners, but Jake can be a little overbearing at times, and Reese is really happy with life right now. Why screw that up or change a good thing?"
Then there are her children – daughter Ava, 10, and son Deacon, 6 – with former husband Ryan Phillippe to consider. "The kids are her first priority," says the source. "They're not ready for that, at least as far as Jake."
Their History
The pair first met on the Morocco set of the movie Rendition in 2006. "Jake went and introduced himself to Reese," a source close to both told PEOPLE. From there, "things slowly progressed, but it was never something she thought would happen from the start. She just kind of developed this little crush over time."
But with Witherspoon's divorce from Phillippe still pending at the time, the actress took a step back during the summer of 2007.
"They broke up. It's totally and completely over," a source in Witherspoon's circle told PEOPLE at the time. "Reese was the one who had to do it. She just got out of a divorce and was so concerned with her family, she just didn't have the time for him and he really demanded that."
The divorce was finalized in June 2008, but moving on proved difficult for Witherspoon. "When people get in your face and say, 'This will pass,' you think: Are they crazy?" Witherspoon said in the April 2009 issue of Elle magazine, adding that the divorce was, "very humiliating and very isolating."
Still, Witherspoon came to realize, "If it's not painful, maybe it wasn't the right decision to marry to begin with. Those are the appropriate emotions."
Reese's Reluctance
Reuniting with Gyllenhaal in 2007, Witherspoon later said her beau was "really a fantastic guy."
"He's very supportive," was she told Vogue last year. "Suffice it to say, I'm very happy in life, and I'm very lucky to have a lot of really supportive people around me who care very much for me, and, you know, that's all you can hope for in life. I am very blessed in that way."
Still, Witherspoon was hesitant to discuss the possibility of marrying again. Despite repeated rumors that the duo had gotten engaged, reps for the pair denied a proposal – and Witherspoon made it clear that she wasn't ready.
"Family is all we have in life, but I don't know how I feel about marriage," she told Parade last year. "Obviously, I'm not far enough out of being married to think about doing it again. You sort of reconstitute your family. You find a family with people who come into your life for a reason."
Gyllenhall, also 33
Wrong.
then on Sunday she was spotted at the Whiskey Kitchen in Nashville
LOL.
"...Gyllenhall, also 33"
Not even People Magazine with a draft handed by Reeke's PR gets his surname right and is Jake 33 now? ;)
"There's a huge attraction between them, and they've becomes a team, partners, but Jake can be a little overbearing at times, and Reese is really happy with life right now. Why screw that up or change a good thing?"
How can he be overbearing yet supportive, I knew Reese would put him in a bad light. I don't think he wanted to rush into marriage, please.
I feel sorry for the next sucker who ends up with her.
^...Witherspoon, 33, told close friends around Thanksgiving that she and Gyllenhall, also 33, had broken up,...^
^^
WTF???!!!!!!
Oh God when will Reeke finally end? LOL.
The pair first met on the Morocco set of the movie Rendition in 2006. "Jake went and introduced himself to Reese," a source close to both told PEOPLE.
LOL! Stupid bitches forgot about LA Rendition costumes fit photos.
theawfultruth: Post-Thanksgiving, have #Jake and #Reese had it with stuffing us with their relationship?
http://twitter.com/theawfultruth/status/6212269641
Ted is talking way ahead again. Reeke denied the split, it was all showmance promo,period.
Ted should STFU already or he'll do the fool once again.
The only remotely interesting thing from People's shit story:
While the precise status of the Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal relationship remains unclear ...
I bet there'll be a Reeke planned photo op in a couple of days.
^^
Hey,you're right.I didn't pay attention to that detail. Why is People saying the fauxm...pardon, the romance's status is unclear if their reps claim they are still on?!
oh,the misteries of life.
good review from
http://www.victoriaadvocate.com/news/2009/nov/30/bc-brothers-movie-review-adv04os-_-entertainment/?entertainment&national-entertainment
"A mature, lean Tobey Maguire is Capt. Sam Cahill, the son who followed Dad (Sam Shepard) into the Marine Corps and is about to go back to Afghanistan. Jake Gyllenhaal is perfectly cast as Tommy, the prodigal son we meet as Sam picks him up from prison. Tommy always drank too much and got into trouble. Sam is the alpha male the old man is proud of.
....But as predicable and cloying as "Brothers" sometimes is, the cast is fascinating — young actors now possessing the dramatic heft to pull something like this off. Maguire, as Sam, comes unhinged in subtle, realistic ways and Gyllenhaal and Portman react to him with a convincing blend of fear and pity. Putting them all at a table with Shepard and veteran character actress Mare Winningham makes for intimate, beautifully-played drama, even if we have a feeling that we've seen all this before."
I bet there'll be a Reeke planned photo op in a couple of days
Maybe over the weekend, when the beard returns from selling Avon in UK.
Meh, Evil Lynn, Reese and Jake up to their usual 'look at me' tricks again.
Even Reese's career is starting to pale in comparison to her off-camera showmancing.
3:58 PM, Brothers seems to be getting solid to good reviews overall. Maybe Tobey even has a chance for some noms? We'll see.
If it’s just a PR stunt I think Jake's in it as much as Reese. Now he has the perfect excuse to refuse to answer any type of personal questions, this means Reeke AND Heath. They both get publicity, Jake for Brothers and the chin for her Avon gig. Idiots.
David Edelstein, New York Magazine
Who could have guessed that the stars who made their names as nerd heroes Peter Parker and Donnie Darko could be so credibly messed-up and volatile? Maguire isn’t big, but his tautness radiates strength. Sam loves his family, but he’s driven to be with “his men”: Single-mindedness is his goal. When he’s captured and thrown in a pit with a private named Joe Willis (Patrick Flueger), he coldly orders the man to forget his family—to forget everything but his name and rank—and the question as he’s starved and tortured is whether he’s as impregnable as he thinks he is. At times, Brothers is like a less-mythical (and -pretentious) The Deer Hunter, with Maguire even managing to suggest something of Robert De Niro when he was young and thin and wired—when you could see his every cell react.
As to the other two leads, Sheridan has gotten the best performances of their young lives. As much as I like Gyllenhaal, I’ve often found him fuzzy, as if he’s wary of losing control. Is that why he’s so affecting here? The dissolute Tommy turns out to be as tightly wound as his older brother, only too scared to focus. He looks pitifully vulnerable as he the supposedly dead Sam’s family and becomes protective. Portman has the kind of role that turns actresses into dullards: the wife who stands and looks stricken at her man (or men) in paroxysms of rage and grief. But she’s so grounded that as the others carry on, your eyes keep drifting to her. Yes, she’s almost unbearably pretty, but it’s her immediacy that keeps you glued to her face.

Huh?! I think Donnie Darko and Tommy have a lot of in common.
"I think Donnie Darko and Tommy have a lot of in common."
What???????
Donnie Darko and Tommy - sensitive, not understood / accepted by other people, affectionate, vunerable, willing to sacrifice.
I.e Jake Gyllenhaal plays...Jake Gyllenhaal.
I won't complain about that :)
"Donnie Darko and Tommy - sensitive, not understood / accepted by other people, affectionate, vunerable, willing to sacrifice"
Donny was a sckizo teenager
I won't complain about that :)
No but you have low standards.
"I.e Jake Gyllenhaal plays...Jake Gyllenhaal."
I dont' think but good try.
Maybe Tommy is more like Holden in The Good Girl.
jeez...it seems Jake has more versatility in his real life
No but you have low standards.
I love sensitive, not understood, affectionate, vunerable, willing to sacrifice movie heroes. I cried for an hour after I saw deleted Donnie Darko dying scene for the first time.
"No but you have low standards."
like sheridan i guess
"Maybe Tommy is more like Holden in The Good Girl.'
No, less crazy
Remember Michael Biehn / Kyle Reese from Terminator? LOVE that movie and Kyle.
... Maguire even managing to suggest something of Robert De Niro when he was young and thin and wired—when you could see his every cell react
This sounded like a compliment only the first reading, lol.
... Maguire even managing to suggest something of Robert De Niro when he was young and thin and wired—when you could see his every cell react
This sounded like a compliment after the first reading, lol.
I used to have a serious crush on M.Biehn back in the times of Terminator & Alien Returns.
I can't count the numbers of shitty movies i've watched just because he was on them ;D
I wonder if his career failed because he is gay and didn't want to beard : DDDDD
Kyle Reese: Come with me if you want to live.
Biehn and Hamilton had amazing chemistry. Both were very attractive in the movie.
Ripley: [pointing to part of gun Hicks is showing her] What's this?
Hicks: That's the grenade launcher. I don't think you want to mess with that.
Ripley: You started this. Show me everything. I can handle myself.
Hicks: [chuckles] Yeah, I noticed.
Brokeback Mountain and The Terminator - two best sex scenes ever.
Sarah and Kyle
Brokeback Mountain and The Terminator - two best sex scenes ever.
Jake and Heath had amazing chemistry and the love scenes were hot. No wonder people liked the idea of them in RL, the same was probably the case with Linda H. and Micheal B.
I liked Biehn better with Sigourny in Alien. When he puts a radar clock on her wrist and he says: "It doesnt mean we are engaged". LOL! He was so hot for Ripley from the begining!! It sucked that he was killed in the third part.
Boy, I haven't talked about my Michael Biehn crush in years!!!! ;D
As a young writer, Cameron borrowed a trick from Walter Hill, who, working on the outer-space horror movie “Alien,” took a character (a young ensign named Ripley) that was originally male and, with minimal revision, made the character female. (Sigourney Weaver played the role, Ellen Ripley.)
As Cameron described the technique, “You write dialogue for a guy and then change the name.”
Boy, I haven't talked about my Michael Biehn crush in years!!!! ;D
I bet every straight girl and gay boy who watched T 1 had a crush on Michael. I even had a girl crush on Linda. She was so cool as Sarah Connor.
Reese Won't Give Jakey The Fairytale Wedding He's Always Dreamed Of
Yesterday afternoon, People Magazine sang from the mountain tops that Jakey had slipped on his favorite tutu (the purple one with pink butterflies on it) and pirouetted out of Reese's life forever. A few hours later, Reese's spokesbitch cursed People's name for fucking with his weekend and a denial was issued. Well, now People is saying that their source swore on a stack of Sexiest Man Alive covers that Reese told her friends they had broken up.
The source added that the two have broken up a few times over the years. The main issue is that Jakey is ready to walk down the aisle with a lace veil over his head and a fancy bouquet in his purdy hands, but Reese is farting on that idea. The source went on to say, "As much as everyone thinks they're right there, they're really not near the whole marriage thing. Jake would marry her tomorrow, but Reese doesn't want to go there yet, even though he would like to. There's a huge attraction between them, and they've becomes a team, partners, but Jake can be a little overbearing at times, and Reese is really happy with life right now. Why screw that up or change a good thing?"
Reese could buy a small country with just one of her paychecks, so my guess is that she's not about to let anyone creep in on her money. Smart move. And Jakey only wants to get married because he wants a reason for bitches to throw glitter (no rice or bird seed for him) at him while he makes his way out of the church. I have a solution.
One of my friends didn't have a quinceanera, because her mother was in jail at the time (it's okay to laugh). So when she was in her 20s, she threw herself a belated quinceanera complete with the big white dress, the rhinestone tiara and mariachis. It was a mess, but thankfully there was an open Corona bar.
So my solution is that Jakey should throw himself a belated quince, so he can get the white doves and the choreographed dances he's been dreaming of. And Reese won't have to put a wedding ring on her finger. Problem solved!

Can you imagine Terminator with two male characters (Sarah and Kyle)? Would that work?
Dear Ted:
There have been reports about Reese and Jake splitting; what are your thoughts? Do you think someone is mustering the courage to make an announcement?
—Margo
Dear Yes and No:
I'm not expecting any kind of announcement from these two. But I'm hardly surprised, these two have way too many secrets.
Dear Ted:
Could you have given us a hint about Toothy Tile in the article about Sandy Bullock? I quote, "Bullock just looks hideous, like something Eddie Murphy would leave behind in a West Hollywood parking lot!" Is Toothy Eddie Murphy?
—E
Dear Digging for Clues:
Not quite, hon. Eddie's Vices are way more out there than Toothy's.
Dear Ted:
You have mentioned that Toothy Tile is bisexual, so is his beard really a beard, or is he actually in love with his girlfriend?
—Sam in Palm Springs
Dear Not in Love:
Or lust, with his girlfriend.
Dear Ted:
How do you think Austin Nichols feels about Reese and Jake's reported breakup? Longtime lover of the column.
—Jessica
Dear Three's a Crowd:
Maybe he's just happy to have his bike buddy back?
Bitch-Back! Do Nicole and Penélope Have a Beef?

Posted on OMG by Sienna
regarding the announcement in general... i was thinking about it on my way home from work.
mix-ups happen, but no matter what we think about RW, she is probably a pretty important client to whoever is repping her, and we know that friends are never the source of anything, right?
so the idea that this is just a goof-up is semi-believable, but not really, because of who it is. reese is very concientious of her image and very intolerant of boo-boos (if she's anything like people say). i just have a hard time believing this was an early jump on a planned announcement that was supposed to come out, say, then end of december instead of the end of november. maybe, but i dunno. that's a big name they just bobbled, and if anything gets f'd up in the process, she could be outed as being a fraud, and that would not go down well with her or with Disney.
when i first read on my lj friends page that they had split, after my initial moment of glee, my immediate long-term reaction was - it can't be this easy. and sure enuf, within a couple of hours, the story was changed, it was all a mistake, etc.
but then, based on the last People report i read here, it sounds to me like P is sticking by their source. they aren't saying that it's for sure over, but they are saying that they for sure got told that, and give reasons why it might be so.
which makes me wonder if the whole announce/take back silliness is not part of the strategy to make it more interesting and dramatic, and also to deflect attention from the fact that it was just a lot of hot air and coffee in the first place.
if they are going back and forth and unsure and no one can get the story straight, etc, it keeps them in the news much longer than if they just said, R&J have decided to call it quits due to the stresses of work and travel, etc. if they just wanted to walk away quietly and PRIVATELY with NO FANFARE from a romance gone wrong, that is what they would say, imo.
the fact that they are immediately stringing us along with these guessing games - saying they are still together altho we have no reason to believe it - makes me think the whole thing is a scheme to milk it for every ounce of white space as long as they can.
what say ya'll?
LOL at "Austin Nichols - - Longtime lover" Not much to read between the lines.
we know that friends are never the source of anything, right?
Right.
if they are going back and forth and unsure and no one can get the story straight, etc, it keeps them in the news much longer than if they just said, R&J have decided to call it quits
Absolutely, it is back to "are they or aren't they" speculations.
Waiting in line to watch a free screening of "brothers". Thanks SIFF! =)

Barbara Walters sits down with 2009 music stars Lady Gaga and Adam Lambert as part of her special Barbara Walters Presents: The 10 Most Fascinating People of 2009.
Gaga and Adam were chosen as two of the most prominent names in entertainment, sports, politics and pop culture and will have Barbara’s interviews with them aired next Wednesday (December 9) at 10/9c on ABC!
Despite recent controversy over his AMAs performance, Adam doesn’t seem to mind. “Don’t worry friends: I’m still gonna be me. Always. W/o appologies [sic],” he tweeted. “Just gonna experiment differently w/ how I present myself.”
Also rumored to be on Barbara’s list: Kate Gosselin, Sarah Palin, Tyler Perry and Glenn Beck.
JJ
^^^ Lady Gaga and Adam Lambert are great choices :)
While speaking to a group of secondary school students at a workshop on homophobic bullying, Sir Ian McKellen said, "Being gay was a topic that was never mentioned when I was your age. We had not really invented the word gay - at school I used to be called Oscar, after Oscar Wilde. If you were gay there was nowhere to go and no one to talk to, there was no other gay person as far as I knew. So to come back to school for the first time in 50 years and see this is heartening, to see that as a nation we have so rapidly grown up.
When I was 29 it was illegal for me to make love, I had a boyfriend and we slept together but the law said that we should be in prison. It was very hard to walk out in the street and say to him don't touch me or brush your hand against mine, there may be a police man around the corner." [The Telegraph]
Poor men :(

LOL :)
I want Free Toothy Tile! t-shirt!
She just got out of a divorce and was so concerned with her family, she just didn't have the time for him and he really demanded that.
All these coded words are giving me a headache.
Jake is getting both femmed and butched-up. Reeke need to get their PR on the same page.
On the one hand, he's overbearing, demanding and dying to put a ring on his hot little lady. But she has to restrain this macho lovesick bull because she's a responsible mom who puts the kids first.
On the other hand, he's a demanding baby who needs constant attention and catering to and the kids can't stomach this diva as Dad.
LOL.
Ent Lawyer comments:
my theory is the contract expired and wasn't renegotiated quickly enough...all the backpedaling leads me to believe the new deal involves more $$$.
---
Rachel Bilson's PR people did the same thing a few months ago, shooting down rumors of a breakup between her and Hayden, when there weren't even any rumors, as if anyone even cared. All this from PR people who "don't comment on their client's private lives." Please. Can anyone say publicity stunt?
---
He's a Disney property.
That and the fact that he's headlining what Disney is hoping is another "Pirates" means they're going to do everything they can to draw publicity to Jake (or as some of us call him, Toothy Tile) that emphasizes his "masculinity".
If that means suddenly leaving Reese for someone else to manufacture drama and publicity, then the Rat will make it happen.
---
Wasn't there a blind on this site recently which suggested that Reese had a relationship with the female head of her production company?
I think that this staged 'break up' news fits this blind item that everybody thought it was about Reeke, and predicted things wouldn't end well:
October 23, 2009
Put on a Fake Smile for One More Year
PopBitch – This Hollywood golden girl is back in the media spinning beautiful stories about the cozy home life that she and her equally famous actor bf enjoy. Bet she doesn’t blab that the pair are contractually bound together for at least one more year. Her paramour’s boy-toy, however, doesn’t like playing second fiddle so this might all not end well.
http://blindgossip.com/?p=13721
Are you saying that Jake wants out?
8;57; All that BS is from the People story over 2 years ago when they broke up the. These were the reasons given back then for the break. Since the alleged source didn't give a reason this time, they went to their archives and pieced together that crap.
People is as bad as the Star, if they aren't spoon fed BS from PR they make it up!
IA that this whole break up/still together thing was Reeke's sad PR attempt at being noticed. But I also think it may have been a way for Reese to keep Jake in line. People said that "a source close to the actress" said they had spilt and People is sticking to that. The denial of the spilit was from Jake's PR. Normally Reeke's PR doesn't comment, but the few times they have denied marriage or engagement rumors, it's always been Reese's PR to do so. May this is Reese's way of showing Jake she still holds the upper hand and can kill Reeke anytime she wants and keep all the spotlight on herself. How much more distracting can it be for Jake that his movie is opening on Friday and all anyone will want to ask him is if he and Reese broke up. Instead of having his much delayed moment in the spotlight about his new movie, he's taken a back seat to Reeke. But I'm not feeling sorry for him, he is a willing partner in Reeke and maybe karma is coming back to bite him in the ass.
People is as bad as the Star
You have to admit it must be hard to write PR fiction about Reeke:
1. Reese Witherspoon must look like a strong, independent, beautiful and successful woman, exceptional mother and wonderful human being.
2. Jake must look like the best boyfriend ever, handsome, supporting, fatherly and wonderful, BUT it must be clear that Reese is in charge and Jake must look inferior.
3. fauxmance must look like a real relationship
4. fauxmance must look like a perfect relationship with just few small imperfections - those imperfections can't be Reese's fault and must be 100% acceptable to Middle America tabloid readers.
5. Reese is boring as Hell. Reeking made Jake look boring as Hell. Reeking is boring as Hell.
May this is Reese's way of showing Jake she still holds the upper hand and can kill Reeke anytime she wants and keep all the spotlight on herself.
Reese can kill Reeke anytime she wants, but I'm sure Jake would be happy about it - Reese needs Jake more that Jake needs Reese.
Reese can't keep the spotlight because only the fauxmance gets her lots of press.
Lainey:
The word from both their reps is that they have not broken up. Which means they want you to think that they are still together…
...
The timing of this move is all f-cked up. Unless it’s a preemptive strike against something else.
This is the first time that Lainey didn't say "Reeke is real" and "Jake isn't gay".
Surprise, surprise, Ubisoft has announced a new Prince of Persia game is in the works to coincide with the release of next year’s feature film.
The multiformat title is subtitled The Forgotten Sands, and sees the franchise return to the Sands of Time storyline. Apparently, it’s aimed at attracting both “core and casual” gamers.
An Ubisoft statement reads: “Prince Of Persia: The Forgotten Sands will feature many of the fan-favourite elements from the original series as well as new gameplay innovations that gamers have come to expect from the Prince Of Persia brand.”
And CEO Yves Guillemot added: “The goal is to reach both audiences, the core and casual gamers. It will be a game that will have lots of combat, with the possibility for gamers that are not as good – a level for beginners. In that sense we are trying to cover both groups.”
Good luck to ‘em. If ever a franchise needed a proper re-reboot, it’s this one.

I agree with all your points, except for the last one. Reeke is not boring. I have such good laughs every morning reading posts in this site while I took breaks from work, and for that, I'll be grateful forever :D
To me, Reeke is like that old,strange relative that always gets drunk in family reunions. It's pathetic, it's sad,it's beyond annoying...but never boring.
I hope Reeke continues for at least a couple of years more, i don't care if it makes Jake miserable.
Besides, i love this site and i love the people posting here, and i'm not ashamed to say it,damned!!!

I'm glad you are having a good time with Reeke and WFT2 :)

Dear Ted:
I'm such a big fan of Taylor Swift. And I think she and Taylor Lautner will make such a cute couple, and I don't think it's fake, I mean sure Taylor Lautner dated Selena Gomez, and they were cute, too, but why would Taylor Swift agree to have a fake relaysh when she writes all her songs about guys cheating on her and breaking up? Wouldn't it be strange if she then started a relaysh just for the benefits of press? I mean the girl has the most sold album, like, ever. I don't think that's because she dates Taylor.

Dear Politics of Hollywood:
Just ask Jennifer Aniston, Renée Zellweger or Reese Witherspoon (all talented and smart ladies): It's always better to be attached to a hunk of the moment.
Dear Ted:
Been reading you for a while...You got me through my pregnancy in Germany while my hubby was deployed... anyway. Reading through Bitch-Back and TAT, I have a question: Is it really hard to have all of this information and not tell? I am awful at keeping a secret, and I just can't imagine having to sit on all the little tidbits you have! How do you sleep?
—A.J.
Dear Rest Easy:
Oh how I wish I could just shout some of these goodies from my E! office, but I'd lose sleep over ruining half of these people's lives and careers, not to mention public images. It's their choice to air their dirty laundry...just wish some of them would do it, already.
Dear Ted:
You know I wonder about Natalie Portman sometimes. She seems to have everything going for her, yet she can't seem to hold down a romantic relationship for long. Admittedly she does do and say some things that make her seem like she could be insufferable in a relationship but is this a reason why she's a Blind Vice superstar?
—portfan
Dear Don't Cry for Portman:
Just because she doesn't fake romances doesn't mean anything's wrong with her. It's OK to be single, people! That's why we heart Nat, 'cause she dates by her own rules.
Bitch-Back! Did Tiger Go Out and Play?
Oh how I wish I could just shout some of these goodies from my E! office

Reese & Jake: Separate Continents
While the state of their relationship remains up in the air, this much is certain: Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal are now an ocean apart.
The actress, 33, is in London to address the House of Commons on Wednesday for the domestic violence charity initiative Refuge in partnership with Avon, which Witherspoon represents.
Meanwhile, Gyllenhaal, 28, has been shooting the upcoming drama Love and Other Drugs in Pittsburgh.
A source told PEOPLE that Witherspoon had informed her friends over the Thanksgiving weekend that she and Gyllenhaal had ended their two-year relationship.
But another source maintains that the pair are still together. Was there a recent break up? "Not officially," says the source.
Reps for both stars have also denied a split.
People
But another source maintains that the pair are still together. Was there a recent break up? "Not officially," says the source.
Huh? What did he say?
He means they're over but they don't want it announced yet. People is obviously like a dog with a bone with this latest news. I believe them. I think they're finished too.
Thanks 1:22 PM. I hope you are right :)
It's me or People mag is really pathetic!
Pathetic People magazine for pathetic fauxmance! lol
People is full of shit, if this is true he isn't filming anything in Pittsburgh:
shireman: waaah waaaaah waaaaaaaaaaaah RT @beth910: This just in: Love and Other Drugs ran out of money and has pulled the plug.
about 3 hours ago from TweetDeck
So now People has 3 sources: A friend of Reese's that said that they split over Thanksgiving, then another"source" that said that they are still together, and asked if there was a recent break up , they replied not officially? So are they saying that the recent "break-up" was fake, ie not officially because according to them they are still together. Sounds like the break-up was fake, ie "not officially". What BS, plus the reps denial.
Maybe they were trying to divert attention from LAOD.
"Besides, i love this site and i love the people posting here, and i'm not ashamed to say it,damned!!!"
The truth it's like us you have a boring life !!! Let's have fun as we can.
People had a reliable source for their story and they are pissed the reps denyed it. They are not letting go of the scoop without a fight.
Maybe they were trying to divert attention from LAOD.
I don't think so.
"I believe them. I think they're finished too."
LOL
"People had a reliable source for their story "
Yes PR lol
Was there a recent break up? "Not officially," says the source.
So break up is unofficial?
People had a reliable source for their story
People magazine story was PR approved or planted by PR.
"People" triomphantly announcing Reese sepaking TO the British parliament.. that was all the fuss about.
People sources: Jake and Reese's PR, that's why they won't let go of it, it's PR approved and People does what they are told.
They are just muddying the waters with this extra source, they are together/was there a recent break/unofficially.
That's Pr speak. Normally if reps get into the picture, People excepts their word and moves on. Their PR want's to milk this. Why?? This is the most attention they have gotten in ages, Brothers and Avon promo and the fact that Reese wil be in the UK and Jake probably still in Pittsburgh or L.A., ooooh, continents apart, lame.
Really, would People post about Reese in the UK or that Jake was filming LOAD? I bet most People readers had no idea.
There is no break up ofiicially or unofficially, if there was they would have just went to People, preferabley after Brothers premiered and that would be the end of it. The fact they are milking it still has the stench of PR all over it; pimp avon and Brothers, make it look like they spent Thanksgiving together, confirm 100% that they are still together, ie aa couple officially from thir mouth pieces, I also suspect they put x17 up to the BS about the suitcases.
When all is settled, People can say they had a fight over Thanksgiving, and the PA was moving out his summer clothes and he is allright with shacking up with her, no marriage. This will go on until Pop and then they will odicially break up.
Probably wrong but People and Pr are in this together.
Independent Spirit Award nominations just announced--no nods for Maggie or Jake but one for Jeff Bridges. (Nothing for Brothers).
"It's me or People mag is really pathetic!"
At least,this time they got Jake's age right.
With People latest story now the reason for the fake spilt becomes clear. Reese is in UK to speak to Parliament. I notice People got in her charity work promo, Avon promo and Brothers promo. Now everyone in the US knows how wonderful & charitable she is. She even went as far as going to UK to speak about women's rights and she shares this concern with Avon, you know the company that pays her millions of dollars to plug their mahe-up and perfumes. Oh and Jake has a new movie coming out. This is a new PR low for Reeke. Thought pimping the kids was bad but this is just beyond deperate.
This is a new PR low for Reeke.
Pathetic.
'Brothers' stars Natalie Portman, Tobey Maguire and Jake Gyllenhaal visit Moviefone for a chat and get familiar -- really familiar -- as they talk about stealing each other's identities, cheating on veganism and what the X-rated (and hilarious) name for a Jake-inspired band would be.
Their film is based on a family torn apart by war, but you'd never know it watching this trio in our studio. Jake, Natalie and Tobey share laughs over Jake's "murkin" defense, Tobey's chocolate vice and the height of Natalie's career. They also dish on the best and worst of filming, Tobey's crazy diet and Jake's brotherly love.

MERKIN - A merkin in the gay and lesbian set in Hollywood refers to a "usually" straight male escorting a gay woman to public events.
Reese is trying to undermine the Brothers premiere. She is a manipulative, jealous sociopath.
She is a manipulative, jealous sociopath.
That much is certain.
True but Buble boy was talking about this and laughing about the implication that he doesnt have enough hIR DOWN THERE:
In Hollywood film-making, merkins are currently used in films where they are worn by actors and actresses to prevent inadvertent exposure of the genitalia during nude or semi-nude scenes. If a merkin was not worn, it would be necessary to restrict the shot to exclude the genital area; with the merkin in place brief flashes of the crotch can be used if necessary. The presence of the merkin protects the actor from inadvertently performing 'full-frontal' nudity – some contracts specifically require that nipples and genitals be covered in some way – which can help ensure that the film achieves a less restrictive MPAA rating.[2] A merkin is also used if the actor has less pubic hair than required for the role, as in the case of Kate Winslet in the film The Reader[3] or the nude dancing extras in The Bank Job.
If Bubble boy and his PR would have scheduled him on more talk shows, they wouldn't have had to resort to a fake break-up for attention.
There is nothing about Bubble boy to be jealous about sociopath/Chris Troll.
If there is a premiere tonight, then there is no reason for him not to show up.

Good, old Jake is alive and kicking :)
There is nothing about Bubble boy to be jealous about sociopath/Chris Troll.
Tell that to Reese Witherspoon, the one that published photos of her new house in Us Weekly few days before Ryan Phillippe's Stop-Loss release day.
True but Buble boy was talking about this and laughing about the implication that he doesnt have enough hIR DOWN THERE
I'm sure Jake knows about other meanings of the word merkin.
Jake: I would call my band "Jake Gyllenhaal's Merkin".
Good, old Jake is alive and kicking :)
^
I don't see it :(
You don't see relaxed and playful Jake?
I don't see it either. Let's not forget Jake is a great performer first and foremost. I think he overdid it in the moviefone interview.
OK, what do you see?
I think he's overcompensating quite a bit.
Jake likes to please, but he's with friends and looks like he's having a good time.
He's with friends, yes, but it comes off as forced. He seems a lot more natural in old interview, with Peter for example.
^ old inetrviews
Jake: I would call my band "Jake Gyllenhaal's Merkin".
From 2007 interview:
Q: What qualities do you admire in Reese, as a person and an actress?
Jake Gyllenhaal: She can grow a mean beard, that’s for sure (laughter)! I don’t know if you’ve seen her beard — it’s amazing!
^^
i don't speak english so i don't understand that joke, what other thing "beard" means?
Beard - Any opposite sex escort taken to an event in an effort to give a homosexaul person the apperance of being out on a date with a person of the opposite sex.
Reese Witherspoon is Jake's beard.
But what did Jake mean by saying Reese can grow a beard? I don't get the "joke"
Jake said that Reese should shave her ugly chin more often! lol
^^
LOL! but,come on, seriously! I want to know!
I would tell you if I knew :)

Could you imagine the rumor of a break-up from a fake romance emerging right before the premiere of Monsters and Aliens? There is no way that Reese would let anything like this distract attention away from the opening of *her* big movie.
Now Jake, who has not been seen in a movie house in two years, is getting good reviews in a brilliant picture that has Oscar-nominations written all over it. Brothers is the kind of picture, and Jim Sheridan is the kind of director, that Reese couldn't buy with all of her Disney money. And suddenly we see rumors.
"LOL! but,come on, seriously! I want to know!"
Jake jokes about rumours!
"He's with friends, yes, but it comes off as forced. He seems a lot more natural in old interview, with Peter for example."
He is the same.
mmmhh...interesting.Are you saying Reese did all this behind his back?
" Baby Tile Nichols Gyllenhaal."
completely ridculous but yeah cute!
See, other people discuss BT, too! :)
I know the three that are tweeting back and forth about BT, I checked their tweets. They post on OMG mostly.
They are obssessed, they are from the UK/Ireland, guess who!!
Jake and Reese's PR work hand in hand, both Jake and Reese knew.
Probably why he was only booked on one show, filming is done.
He's with friends, yes, but it comes off as forced. He seems a lot more natural in old interview, with Peter for example.
Nice interview. Did you notice Nat touching Jake's thigh?
Probably why he was only booked on one show, filming is done.
Only one show for Jake because there was that People magazine PR plan?
How do we know that filming is done?
The film is listed as in post-production on IMDB, no signs/tweets of him filming.
The film is listed as in post-production on IMDB
LAOD was already listed as in post-production on IMDB when they were filming for sure.
They are obssessed, they are from the UK/Ireland, guess who!!
Obsessed with what?
How should I know, I know only a few people from UK/Ireland.
If Bubble boy and his PR would have scheduled him on more talk shows, they wouldn't have had to resort to a fake break-up for attention.
Why didn't they? Did Jake wanted a low profile or ...?
Is it me or the "split story" didn't make too much of a buzz in the internet ?
I think the "split story" did OK since there were actually two stories - split and reps fix, loo.
That should be lol, not loo!
While you wait for BROTHERS: Tobey Maguire on @nbcconan on NBC at 11:30 EST/PST...must watch!

Posted on OMG
US Weekly has a story on the cover (but NOT the MAIN story--that's duh Tiger Woods) entitled Reese/Jake "Is There Trouble?"
Great, more Reeke fiction.
They finally realized that the only way to get attention is to pimp break-up rumors like Brad and Angelina. The rags have them breaking up every week!
Brangelina does not pimp break-up rumors - all tabloids (except People magazine) are making them up.
Ha, People goes along with the flow. They are pimping Stewert/Pattison which is a joke. Stewart is gay everyone in HW knows it including People and Ted but it sells.
Brad and Angie may not pimp break-up rumors but the rags knows that sells and yes People have engaged in it as well
Could you imagine the rumor of a break-up from a fake romance emerging right before the premiere of Monsters and Aliens? There is no way that Reese would let anything like this distract attention away from the opening of *her* big movie.
What about this scenario:
fauxmance is over because Jake wanted out, they decide to announce it after the holidays but Reese wants a little revenge and her team plants split info. They quickly fix it, but Reese gets what she wanted - this week won't be about Jake and Brothers, this week will be about Reeke, the fauxmance, Reese, Avon, Jake and Brothers.
If there is a premiere tonight, then there is no reason for him not to show up.
There is LA premiere tonight, but Jake might have a reason to stay on the East Coast - LAOD, Sesame Street.
8:39; no way Jake wanted out. And why should he? All he has to do is show up for photo ops. They would have to get a new beard and Jake only like A-list actresses.
Both reps went to People IMO and they are still feeding them info, Jake and Reese know about the BS.
8:46: Is there a L.A. premiere tonight? He taped Sesame St months ago, he has no reason to eon the East coast for that. Is he still filming? I find it hard to believe that he is only doing one show, even Tobey is doing more snd he hates doing them.
Even when Jake was filming Rendition in Morocco, they gave him time off to fly back to do Zodiac Promo.
You mean to tell me that some small budget film that is about to wrap couldn't give him an evening off?
It's almost like he has no interest in promoting this film.
Sesame Street? You seriously think a movie star would skip their premiere to film a bit for Sesame Street?????
^^^^ Cookie Monster>>>>>>>>> anything else ;)
Maybe Jake is afraid of being asked about the big event that happened during the filming of "Brothers?" But I doubt anyone would ask--it's not like they or Jake remember.
Nobody would remember that.
"fauxmance is over because Jake wanted out, they decide to announce it after the holidays but Reese wants a little revenge and her team plants split info. They quickly fix it, but Reese gets what she wanted - this week won't be about Jake and Brothers, this week will be about Reeke, the fauxmance, Reese, Avon, Jake and Brothers."
I agree. This entire thing stinks of Reese. Misery truly loves company. If she can't get near Mr. Oscar, then she's going to make damn sure that her gay ex-escort doesn't get near him either.
Poor Jake, he looks unfed.
11:21, he does look very thin. He must be VERY stressed out because Jake man likes food. He doesn't look very good (sorry) in the recent pics of him.
I love this photo of Jake/Reese--it probably defines their entire relationship.
OT: Earlier this evening I watched a taping of Sesame Street Christmas at Rockefeller Center. It was indescribably cute!!
The photo above summarizes their entire fake relationship. Of the thousands of pictures taken of them, most are just variations of this one. You can count the "good" pictures of them on one hand.
I noticed he used the f word pretty freely too. Another sure sign that he doesn't live with Reese. Being around kids changes your habits. Look at Tobey mentioning he dives for the switch when hip hop is on so the kids don't hear the wrong thing. A parents reaction.
As to Jake's demeanor during the interview, if you have seen him do them over the years, you know that he is a constant performer. That tinge of manic behavior is pretty typical for him. He wants to be loved, will do just about anything to please. That is why he is in this mes in the first place.
"Also in the new issue of OK!:
...
• Reese Witherspoon & Jake Gyllenhaal: Mounting tensions lead this super couple to take a break."
OK! Magazine
"Reese & Jake: As their careers continue to move at full-force, Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal have been spending a lot of time apart from each other, which has forced them to reevaluate their relationship. Will this be the end of their love story? Plus, we check in on the state of her ex Ryan Phillippe’s love life."
OK! in this issue
- Cute interview though I felt everyone was holding back. Jake is a natural performer clowning around.
- The working out with Tobey's friends was an interesting part. It sounded almost sad, like he desperately wants to fit in and be part of the gang. Wonder what the family dynamics behind that need are.
- Jake's serious expressions while listening to Tobey were hilarious. He just tries too hard to do the right thing at all times.
- Also interesting was the way he jokes that the publisists wouldn't want the alopecia story out. Even though it's a joke he seems very conscious of how he is being presented.
"It's me or People mag is really pathetic!"
No. It's Jake and Reese that are pathetic.
There is no defense for Jake being part of such calculated fakery. None. He's always been Hollywood product, but this puts HoHoHo into GyllenHO.
As for Oscar nods for the sentimental slickness that is 'Brothers', you all must be dreaming.
Tobey chews scenery as though he's hopped up on ritalin - I kept expecting his eyeballs to pop out. Jake once again plays it earnest and puppy eyes begging "please luv meeeee." Fine for the family man, but completely unbelievable as a dangerous excon. Why must he always play to the audience's affections? He needs a good director to discipline him. I think Fincher had better success than Sheridan.
Let us know how it is! RT @JeremyKrantz Headed home to rest a bit before the movie premiere of "Brothers". Very excited about the movie!
