9:39, a few years ago it was rumoured Channing Tatum and Jake had had a fling, based on what I dnno but they were supposedly hanging out a lot at the time.
He appeared last season in a play at the Goodman in Chicago. He starts off the play nude and he has a very nice size dick. He also has a lot of tattoos. But, more importantly, there were a lot of rumors at the theatre that Mr. Hardy was having a fling with one of the understudies...a male understudy.

The Clintons's statement via The NY Times: “Today, we watched with great pride and overwhelming emotion as Chelsea and Marc wed in a beautiful ceremony at Astor Courts, surrounded by family and their close friends. We could not have asked for a more perfect day to celebrate the beginning of their life together, and we are so happy to welcome Marc into our family.”
Just for the record, Clinton wore a strapless beaded gown designed by Vera Wang and Hillary Clinton wore a plum-colored gown by Oscar de la Renta.
...In December 2007 Campbell confirmed his sexuality in a Melbourne newspaper interview that was widely picked up by other media outlets. Then he insisted he and Callea were "mates", both getting over break-ups with their respective partners. "We were questioned in early times together," Campbell says now, "and we kind of kept saying 'no' because, I mean, really, we'd only just met. You know, 'Are we together?' 'I dunno!"'
By following February, Campbell made "no" a definite "yes" in a radio interview. "We'd just kept denying it and ringing our managers and doing all that game-playing stuff, and we just got to a point where the relationship was really great and we were really happy with it, and [we wanted] to stop speculation fuelling."
What impact might his honesty about his sexuality have on Campbell's career? In April, gay Newsweek writer Ramin Setoodeh criticised gay actor Sean Hayes – gay Jack in sitcom Will and Grace – for being "wooden" as a straight character in a Broadway revival of Promises, Promises.
Setoodeh argued that openly gay actors "still have reason to be scared". "While it's OK for straight actors to play gay (as Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger did in Brokeback Mountain), it's rare for someone to pull off the trick in reverse."
Campbell thinks watching a lot of Will and Grace may have blinkered Setoodeh's critical view. "It will be an interesting time now because I guess I do have a bit of a gay tag as an actor as well, and as much as I'd hate that to get in the way of roles because – oh, look, I've never had an issue; I've never played a gay role on telly or on stage."
Setoodeh argued that openly gay actors "still have reason to be scared". "While it's OK for straight actors to play gay (as Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger did in Brokeback Mountain), it's rare for someone to pull off the trick in reverse."
From Us (August 9, 2010), if Johnny Depp actually plays Carol Channing in drag, he will officially be the gayest actor in Hollywood to not actually be gay. Ever.
Leonardo DiCaprio will no longer star in in Mel Gibson's next directorial project, a period piece about Vikings. We have a feeling it has more to do with Mel's recent behavior than how Leo feels about Vikings.
Despite what the tabloids and glossy mags say, this very famous show business couple in not really pregnant. She had her tubes tied a long time ago. For the next few months, though, her fake, special-effects pregnant stomach made of silicone will slowly grow in size until she “gives birth” to an adopted baby. Since her other child/ren didn’t resemble her, no one will question that fact that this one won’t, either. You’ll get a close-up of the scientifically-made miracle child on the front cover of a magazine (now being negotiated for a hefty fee).
Jake is such a trusting soul. His PR probably tells him his career is going great that he is their number 1 priority and he believes them. Clearly Reese comes first and not Jake.
Inception is #1 3rd week in a row. I wonder how long before we hear that Jake turned down a part in the film.
Q: Have the reasons behind gay males often being emotionally attracted to flamboyant, sometimes tragic women (Judy Garland, Cher etc.) ever been discussed or explored? – Jerry, Australia
A: It’s a little known fact that many gay men share several strands of DNA with raccoons: we’re drawn to sparkly things. In truth, no one really knows what’s up with gay men and fabulous female divas – and there might be as many theories as there are gay men. Here’s mine:
Gay men were traditionally very marginalized and oppressed – generally by straight men and the institutions they controlled. There were very, very few out gay men to identify with in entertainment, and we were reluctant to openly identify with our oppressors, so we were drawn to another group of outsiders: women.
But not just any women. Interestingly, we had no interest in demure, quietly-accept-the-status-quo female icons like Donna Reed, Doris Day, or the Virgin Mary (except in an ironic, camp way).
No, we were drawn to women who seemed to want to shake things up: women who seemed to be overcoming the odds of being the the wrong race (Diana, Aretha, Chita, Lena, Eartha), or having a big nose (Barbra, Cher, Bette Midler), or dealing with some kind of addiction (Judy, Liza, Janis), or just the general sense that men were out to abuse or dismiss them, mostly because they couldn’t conform to or wouldn’t play by the rules other men had made up (Bette Davis, Joan Crawford, Lucille Ball, Marlene Dietrich, Elizabeth Taylor, Billie Jean King, and, well, all of the women listed above).
Even if it was sometimes subconscious, these women were demanding, through sheer force of their considerable talent and willpower, a reexamination of social mores.
And there was a subversiveness in how they went about it – a cheeky, wink-wink-nod-nod attitude that went over the head of many straight viewers. Through their choices of songs and roles, these divas could communicate one thing to their gay audiences, while still being conventional enough to find “mainstream” success.
What gay guy, circa 1972, couldn’t relate to that? It was exactly the way we wanted to live our own lives.
And then there are the tragic figures – women like Judy, Marilyn Monroe, and Janis Joplin who were destroyed by not just their own indulgences, but surely by social pressures as well. Perhaps we celebrate them because we understand their pain.
But as I’ve written several times recently, the times are changing – the role of divas is changing too. In a nutshell, this is why Kathy Griffin won’t shut the hell up.
They are historical wrong and the comment promotes hate.
While I’m mentioning stupid comments. August 01, 2010 2:04 PM— I don’t know if you are trying to be funny or you’re just a moron. I’m guessing both. Mel Gibson should go meet up with 8:17 and crawl back under the rocks they came from.
He's forever on his phone and has said in interviews that his family and friends email interesting things about him, so he must definitely check out various gossip sites online...
If someone wrote "Gays killed Jesus" how would you feel?
Mel Gibson had a character in his movie who was gay and tossed him out a window to his death to get cheers from his audience. He then said disgusting things about people who are gay, women, jews, blacks, hispanics, should i go on? Oh, he hit his baby’s mama because “she deserved it.”
I wonder how long before we hear that Jake turned down a part in the film.
I kind of doubt Jake was offered a role in Inception. At least not Leo's, he was hired to draw the audience mainly (imo). Other hot candidates for Leo's role were Will Smith and Brad Pitt. Let's see how LAOD will fare B.O. wise with him and Hathaway as leads. As for award potential for LAOD, I don't see it.
Beautiful boy, my last film, will be at the toronto film festival sep 12. Wonderful performances from maria bello and michael sheen!!! 8:12 PM Jul 30th
... Back in January, you blogged here at the start of the Source Code process. Can you tell us a bit about how it all panned out after that, the experience of working, the learning experience, the cast, managing a second unit in Chicago etc?
It has been a seismic shift on how I would normally work, but I think I have adjusted ok. It all makes complete sense, when you think about it. With more money, there is more caution, more advice, more suggestion, and over the course of making the film, I had to keep reminding myself that I was asked to direct the film because the people in charge trusted my choices. I think that was the real turning point. At first it was a little over whelming, being second-guessed so much, but I educated myself fast, and fortunately I was supported by the incredibly gracious and talented Jake G, who really got behind me and trusted my instincts. It would have been easy to lose my perspective, with so many others being offered. ... We’re all REALLY looking forward to Source Code, especially after the great feedback from Jake Gyllenhaal while being interviewed on PoP promotional tour, if you could take a step back, like Worzel Gummidge, and pop on an audience head, what would you think of what you have all achieved?
Too close to it, to be honest! I know that performance-wise we got some great stuff from Jake, Michelle, Vera and Jeffrey. I know that the script was always tight, and the film has a hell of a fast pace to it. I know that I did my best to inject some humor where I could. But other than that, we float, helpless in the post-production maelstrom right now!
About Tom Hardy: I find it odd that all these commenters (at other blogs) are suddenly coming out of the woodwork and now spilling about their sexual encounters with him. Did they ever mention it before? Did they ever write about it on other sites or their own blogs to record the events? I doubt it. I don't think the encounters ever happened. I'm not saying Hardy isn't gay or bi or had experiences; it's just that now people are jumping on the bandwagon and announcing "Yeah it's totally true - he's gay! I've had sex with Tom Hardy!" when I'm sure they didn't even know the man existed until they read that interview.
Did mainstream media (like Daily Mail) discuss Tom Hardy's sexuality before? I don't think so. There has to be the first time for everything, and that includes talking about sexual encounters.
No one talked about Tom Hardy and/or his sex life before because no one gave a fuck about him until Inception. He was mostly just in British shows and films.
Even though PR dialed it back, the fact that Tom Hardy said as much as he did (shoe cliches and "it doesn't do it for me now" notwithstanding) in the original Attitude interview is viewed positively by some. Interesting that Frank and Andy - a blog from my generation - taps him and others like Enrique and Cesc for being progressive.
Perhaps then, this is the new leading man. While gay actors like Matt Bomer, whose double life includes a husband and kids, or Zachary Quinto and Wentworth Miller, continue to perpetuate the false attitude that to be open about your sexuality is career ending, clearly Tom isn’t too caught up in the implications of his sexuality. He’s incredibly attractive, in the summer’s biggest Hollywood blockbuster, and is a father, engaged to a beautiful woman. I’ll go out on a limb here and say Tom Hardy probably doesn’t lose sleep over his sexuality, or silly newspaper headlines for that matter.
Frank and Andy go to mention attitudes and this made me think of Jake on Jonathan Ross gagging at suggestion of a man kiss.
... For example last week, Enrique Iglesias appeared on Lopez Tonight to promote his new album Euphoria. When male fans in the audience cheered loudly, George Lopez asked Enrique if he’d ever kissed a guy before. As his male fans cheered louder, Enrique recalled performing recently at the London gay club G-A-Y where he serenaded a male fan on stage, something he has done before (see the video at left, taken at a concert several years ago. Enrique couldn’t be more cool). When George Lopez persisted by saying, “So you’re not opposed to kissing a dude,” Enrique asked, “You mean like, experimenting?” Before leaning in to kiss George on the cheek. The audience cheers, both men laugh, and for a gay guy watching, you can see Enrique gets it. His fans get it. Who he’s personally attracted to is irrelevant.
A similar television moment took place in Spain following the World Cup. At the conclusion of a short on camera interview with Spanish soccer star Cesc Fabregas, the television reporter Raul Gomez asked Cesc if he would fufill his dream of kissing a World Cup champion. Although the kiss is humorous, Cesc agrees with out hesitation. It’s a small gesture, but the lack of resistance, of self-awareness, of will this spark headlines or tarnish my public image self-doubt, is significant. It’s just a kiss.
For some, there's a difference between playing gay on screen and kissing another man in real life or admitting to it. I like actors like Ewan McGregor, who have few hangups about either.
No. 30 · Erick Seriously Queerty, get your act together, find the facts before you start "reporting". Those quotes were taken by the Daily Mail from an Attitude Magazine interview from 2009 regarding his role in Rockanrolla. Those quotes most of the media regurgitated last week were taken out of context by the Daily Mail and did not accredited to Attitude. If you read the original interview he said he fooled around with guys when was a kid, but guys dont do it for him. He in no way shape or form said he was bisexual, so he does not have to backtrack. So when they say his comment were taken out of context is true, by the loathsome Daily Mail. In the original interview he is actually very honest and cool about playing around with guys in his teens, which is more than the majority of guys would even begin to admit to themselves. Dont star hating on a cool guy who seems like an ally when you dont have all the facts
Obviously "White Collar" is his big break, but I'd definitely go back and watch some of his older stuff if you haven't seen it. :)
Thanks. I tried watching Chuck when it first started and couldn't get into it, but I'll try to check out the other two shows.
Not to stir things up since it was last night/earlier today, but I think "Jew boy" is offensive, and I don't know anyone Jewish who would ever use that, and certainly not as some kind of terms of endearment as someone suggested. The word "Jew" just in of itself is often used in a derogatory way, therefore the preferred term is Jewish. maybe it is because of the Holocaust, but Jews just don't throw around words that way, say, rappers throw around the "N" word.
I saw the comment at 8:17 when I glanced here earlier but didn't have time to comment, and am glad to see that one is gone too. Also offensive and anti-Semitic.
No one talked about Tom Hardy and/or his sex life before because no one gave a fuck about him until Inception. He was mostly just in British shows and films.
Exactly. So what's more natural than people talking about Tom and having sex with Tom?
LaurenMilberger: Had dinner in Brooklyn & Saw Maggie Gyllenhaal - now off to bed to get the much needed brain sleep for my auditions tomorrow. about 7 hours ago
Liz93: are you kidding me? RT @CarolineJoyner JAKE GYLENHALL IN VINEYARD PART TWO!!!! (Im done with the excessive tweets but this was so necessary) 1 day ago
A John Daly?! Would that be a weight problem, an outburst, public drunkenness or peeing on a golf course? Or maybe it's the sweet tea-flavored vodka and lemonade drink. Watch out Jake, drink enough of those and you'll probably end up overweight, having outbursts, an alcoholic and peeing in public.
On Wednesday, Caroline Kennedy, "Jarhead" star Jake Gyllenhaal, his sister Maggie Gyllenhaal and her husband Peter Sarsgaard checked out "The Tillman Story," Amir Bar-Lev's documentary about the death of pro-football-player-turned Army Ranger Pat Tillman that hits theaters this month. The film, which looks into the military's cover-up of Tillman's death from friendly fire in Afghanistan in 2004, was hosted by Russell Baer, a soldier in Tillman's platoon, at the Chilmark Community Center in Martha's Vineyard. And a source at the screening tells us that Jake, hung around "to meet Baer" after the screening.
It didn't take long for X-Factor winner Joe McElderry's past to come forward following the young singer's revelation that he was gay on Friday.
Sean Ryan, a trainee hairdresser and model, went to UK's Sun tabloid to talk about how he was the singer's first kiss after meeting him backstage at the X-Factor audition:
"I got up to go home. I turned round and he made the first move and kissed me. It was definitely the first time he'd kissed a guy because he told me. He said he'd kissed a few girls but never had sex. It was a long passionate kiss. But that was all that happened and I left...He was shy and turned away when I leaned towards him. I could see he had the uncertainty I had felt at his age....[A week later they did kiss] Joe opened the door in pyjamas. His mum was out so we lay on the settee and kissed and cuddled. We didn't ever get any more intimate than that...He's been brave. It can't have been easy doing that in the public eye."
Over the weekend McElderry expressed gratitude for all the support he's received since coming out.
Has anyone ever talked about or admitted to having sex with Jake, besides Ted and the almost-did JG Francis?
Ted had sex with Jake??? ;) DL guy said he kissed Jake in some NYC club during Columbia University days. He complained a bit about Jake being a smoker.
Dear Ted: Is there anyone in Hollywood that is not full of vices? Or anyone that you consider such an awesome person you just can't write anything bad about them? —B
Dear Optimist: You don't get anywhere in Hollywood by being sweet. If I were to say a couple of babes I'm quite fond of, but who are hardly flawless, it would be George Clooney and Meryl Streep. Tho Meryl is about as close to perfect as you'll get in this town.
Dear Ted: Love that you're loving on Joseph Gordon-Levitt now! Totes agree. One of the best. Had the pleasure of meeting him once...class act. Anyway, you got it wrong about who he's dating. His GF is Lexy Hulme...a dancer. It's pretty serious from what I hear. So, are the rumors about him working with Kristen Stewart true? Read it on your board and was wondering. If so, would totally love that. They're both terrific actors. What are your thoughts? —JGL fan
Dear Premature Excitement: Knew JGL and Lexi were going strong at Sundance, but, not sure if that's still the case, babe. Either way, the guy's a total sweetheart and über-talented. He's gonna be big in Hollywood, no doubt. Haven't heard anything definitive on the K.Stew stuff, but think it's a fab idea.
Dear Ted: What's your opinion of Ian Halperin? He seems to ride the coattails of your Blind Vices, outs celebrities without any valid proof and constantly plugs his own "tell-all" books and movies. Is this guy legit, or nothing more than a shifty fraudster? —E
Dear Imitation Is Flattery: I know very little about Ian, personally, only that he's been very gracious with me the few times we've spoken.
Dear Ted: I'm a huge fan of HBO's True Blood. I've noticed that its stars frequent talk shows around key promo times (such as Chelsea Lately, Regis & Kelly). All of the main stars have made appearances except for my personal fave, Alexander SkarsgÃ¥rd. What gives? –M
Dear Good Question: Guess he's the kinda guy who likes to bite dudes tushes and not have to discuss it.
I've been loving and rooting for JGL since Mysterious Skin. I'm glad he finally made it into a really good action movie instead of crap like G.I. Joe, a movie I couldn't bring myself to go see despite his presence in it.
^^I can't wait to see MS. From the clips I saw, it looks really good. Brick too. G.I. Joe isn't really my kind of action film, but classic Batman and Spiderman, and if Nolan is attached to it as rumored, Superman, are definitely my cup of tea. I think JGL would make a great Bat-Villain. Nolan seems to know what the guys like in an action film, but what women like too. His Gotham world is the most real I have ever seen, not cartoonish. The Joker - enuf said. ;) I hope The Riddler will be that way - not cartoonish and more of a man.
Nathan Lane is spending some time with the 'Family' next season.
Lane, star of Broadway and the movies, will play Pepper, a friend of Cam (Eric Stonestreet) and Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson) on the ABC series 'Modern Family,' according to the Vulture report. He's described in the report as their "ultraflamboyant" friend, and that's saying something considering the personalities of the outwardly blissful Cam and Mitchell.
Lane is booked for a single episode. Although producers are attempting to keep the guest stars to a minimum in the upcoming season, the Lane spot was too hard to resist, according to the report. "Nathan was just too perfect for the role," said executive producer Steve Levitan.
How will he fit in? An old flame of Mitchell, who seems to go for the big and burly types? A babysitter for Lily? We shall see.
Season two of 'Modern Family' premieres on ABC Weds. Sept. 22 at 9PM ET.
He's described in the report as their "ultraflamboyant" friend, and that's saying something considering the personalities of the outwardly blissful Cam and Mitchell.
^^I know, I always loved that show and he was one of the best things about it. So funny and very cute. Nice to see him all grown up now. All of the cast, as well.
Silly Bandz are all the rage with the kids, replacing those Livestrong rubber wrist bands. Neil Patrick Harris owns a few. He has a dolphin one. A pineapple one.
I love the way NPH isn't afraid to be sexual, it really goes against what you'd expect of him too.
Loved JGL on 30 Rock. And how could I forget, on That 70s Show crushing on Topher Grace.
Modern Family is one of my favorite shows, I hope it keeps up the pace and doesn't have a sophmore year slump in the writing. Can't wait to see Nathan Lane.

Umm, because America didn't give two hoots about him before Inception and before he's due to become Mad Max XVIII?
How many write-ups about Tom Hardy did you rush off and find before this one appeared? The grand total of...none maybe? Because no-one in the US knew who he was?
If you read the original interview he said he fooled around with guys when was a kid, but guys dont do it for him. He in no way shape or form said he was bisexual, so he does not have to backtrack.
I agree, but in my opinion Tom H did protest too much.
I was trying to catch up on Bomer posts during lunch. The only reason I'm bringing this up is that I can't believe the hate being spewed on the JJ post on Saturday, a lot of it in the name of "Christianity". I could be wrong, but what with the anti-Semitic posts on here on Saturday, plus some digs at Bomer that seemed to come from our troll, I couldn't help but think our freeper loving troll was working himself up and spewing all over the internet.
You have to really be sick to get your jollies doing that.
And wow, three ONTD posts on Bomer just over the weekend. Haven't caught up on those yet.
I don't have time to look for them now, I just remember that there were some posts slamming Bomer for not being more open in that interview with Houston magazine. Some struck me as honest opinions, some struck me as trollish because of the recognizable way they were worded and the angry, condescending tone.
The only reason I'm bringing this up is that I can't believe the hate being spewed on the JJ post on Saturday, a lot of it in the name of "Christianity".
Why not? Didn't you read the same "Christianity" comments about Marc Jacobs or Ricky Martin? I'm surprised that there aren't more comments like that, Roman Catholic Church has more than a billion members and Roman Catholic Church teaches that homosexuality is a moral evil (or worse).
Umm, because America didn't give two hoots about him before Inception and before he's due to become Mad Max XVIII?
Umm, no. My point is: all these people are coming out of the woodwork to say they had gay sex with Hardy while there are no previously documented accounts from 1) British/non-US people 2) fans/followers/groupies from early-on in his career 3) someone who wrote about a sexual encounter with an up and coming British TV/movie star with say, the initials of TH.
I was at a mechanic's today for my car. It was a new shop I'd never been to before. While I was quietly reading, waiting, about 3 of the male mechanics were close to me standing on the other side of an open door and I could hear them chat. One of them brought up something and the other said "well call your ex-bf and ask him about it" and one of them said "no way would I call him" and the third guy said "why not, don't you still talk after all this time since you broke up?" LOL I don't know which ones were gay or if one was and the other two were supportive but it was surprising (and nice) to hear.
6:10 PM - gays have sex and then run to post a report about it on some forum or blog. And, believe it or not, most gays have enought self respect not to post about it on the Net.
6:10 PM - gays DON'T have sex and then run to post a report about it on some forum or blog. And, believe it or not, most gays have enought self respect not to post about it on the Net.
WDW - Jake Gyllenhaal on how Heath Ledger always inspires him to want to be a better actor
"Q: Your friend and "Brokeback" co-star Heath Ledger died in 2008.Has your view of life changed since? JG: It sounds kind of funny that what I had focused on so far that had become so important, became even more important in my life. I refer to my work. It was even more important because I felt that what Heath had done was so extraordinary and inspiring. So I always want to be a better actor. On the other side of me as a human being, it was clear that it's just my job. I think that - mainly in the film industry - there are people who think that they will never grow old, never die. Heath has gone from us much too soon. I've noticed a distinction between work and life."
~~~~~~~ Nice words about Heath. But I thought Jake said he wasn't going to talk about Heath because it was no one's business? I thought he said Heath would "roll his eyes" if he spoke about him? I guess it depends on how he feels the day he's asked.
About Tom Hardy: I find it odd that all these commenters (at other blogs) are suddenly coming out of the woodwork and now spilling about their sexual encounters with him. Did they ever mention it before? Did they ever write about it on other sites or their own blogs to record the events? I doubt it. I don't think the encounters ever happened. I'm not saying Hardy isn't gay or bi or had experiences; it's just that now people are jumping on the bandwagon and announcing "Yeah it's totally true - he's gay! I've had sex with Tom Hardy!" when I'm sure they didn't even know the man existed until they read that interview.
^^ this is the kind of shit that bothers me. there was no coming out of the woodwork of past sexual partners with the bi female celebrities. No past partners, no ridicule from the male gay community, the female gay comm., no backlash. this is part of why male stars who deal with both sexes in the past and currently, don't speak about it. why bother? You are only gonna be labeled as gay or lying.. From the str8 commuinity, the gay comm. and all the tabloids will take shots at you.
But I thought Jake said he wasn't going to talk about Heath because it was no one's business? I thought he said Heath would "roll his eyes" if he spoke about him?
Jake never said that, you need to read more carefully.
Didn't you read the same "Christianity" comments about Marc Jacobs or Ricky Martin?
I only saw stuff like that at mainstream media sites when Ricky came out, which get all kinds of people posting, so yeah, anything goes is the rule of the day. I don't recall seeing it at gossip sites, but I don't always read the comments for people like Ricky or Marc.
Couple of thoughts about all the commentators coming out of the woodwork about Hardy. Some of them could be true, and maybe some of them didn't want to talk about him before now so as to not out him.
But generally I tend to believe these stories more when the person is not that well-known, or when you find old stories when you go back and look for them after the fact.
Why chatter about men, but not women? I think men like to boast more than women. I also suspect that in a lot of cases of bisexuality and women it may have just been a few partners, while I suspect with men there's more partners.
men like to boast more than women True! in a lot of cases of bisexuality and women it may have just been a few partners True! with men there's more partners True!!!
Hardy was too low on the food chain to warrant any scrutiny before Inception. If a story had been posted about him most people would not have had a clue who he was or cared so no point in mentioning his name.
But I thought Jake said he wasn't going to talk about Heath because it was no one's business? I thought he said Heath would "roll his eyes" if he spoke about him?
Me, too! So now Heath wouldn’t roll his eyes? These so very nice answers to Heath questions sound like they were written by Jake’s PR. Well Jake was doing promo work.
Is POP the result of Jake wanting to be a better actor? Heath, do us all a favor and stop inspiring him. ;)
I thought he said Heath would "roll his eyes" if he spoke about him?
Jake did NOT say that, he said:
"The experience Heath and I had was also shared publicly with all the press and publicity we did. But what we shared as friends, though I respect the interest that so many people have in the mourning and grieving process and how it feels to other people, I feel like — and I don’t mean this in an unkind way — but I don’t think it’s anybody’s business but his and mine. So in that sense, to really respect him — and also the way he felt about his life and his private life and what he cared about, because he was a deeply caring and loving human being — every time anybody asks me any question about him, it would be like he was sitting next to me, and I know he would roll his eyes, because that’s the way he was. It was between us.”
Hardy was too low on the food chain to warrant any scrutiny before Inception.
In the USA. But in the UK, things started heating up a few years ago. Then with RocknRolla and Bronson (which is a masterpiece performance by Hardy) quite a few people took notice.
Is POP the result of Jake wanting to be a better actor? Heath, do us all a favor and stop inspiring him. ;)
:-D
These so very nice answers to Heath questions sound like they were written by Jake’s PR.
I don't think Jake has ever spoken from the heart about Heath. All his statements are very scripted-sounding. The contrast with Matt Damon's brief but heartfelt words is noticeable.
Jake either doesn't care or cares too much. Probably the former.

I know what Jake said. I've read it more than once. "every time anybody asks me any question about him, it would be like he was sitting next to me, and I know he would roll his eyes" So, what's the difference in what I wrote and what he said? Someone asked him a question about Heath. This time he answered. He didn't say it was no one's business and apparently he didn't think Heath would roll his eyes at the answer he gave. He's being inconsistent, which is fine, maybe it depends on his mood. There's no reason to be so defensive about him. I don't agree with the poster who said that Jake's answers are PR written. I think they're from the heart - but he's still inconsistent.
I thought it was more than clear - Jake doesn't want to talk about PRIVATE part of their relationship or private Heath.
That's not what Jake said. "every time anybody asks me any question about him. He said said "any" question. He could've qualified that and he didn't. The interviewer he gave that answer to wasn't asking him about the "private" part of their relationship.
Then let him tell us all about having sex with women. However be prepared to think up what else he can talk about for the remaining 59 minutes of the one hour interview.
Jake is always glued to his family. He's the very definition of family guy. A bit on the boring side, but he's still a good catch. ;)
Good catch? For a woman, it would mean being a beard for the duration. For a man, it would mean hiding and pretending for the duration. Hardly what most women or men dream about.
Unless he's straight, of course. Then he's hubby material for fangirls.
That is exactly what Jake said. Please read 5:23 AM quote, all four sentences of it.
I have read all four sentences. If you read the interview from which this is taken, the interviewer did not ask Jake any "private" questions or ask him to betray a confidence he had with Heath. Sorry, but I see Jake as being inconsistent. Again, it's not a criticism so there's no need to be defensive. Jake has previously spoken about the fact that he was enamored of Heath - that's a personal feeling. Why wouldn't Heath roll his eyes at that? I kind of think he would. Jake also answered, I think it was in a Russian interview, a question about what was going on with Heath before he died, his frame of mind, was he in a bad way, etc. Jake didn't decline to answer that question, although he certainly could have. I don't remember his exact answer, but it was something along the lines that he had been in contact with him and didn't sense that anything was wrong. Anyway, my point is - he has spoken about personal things to some extent, and that's why I think it's inconsitent, but maybe you're defining it differently.
Move over, Carrie Prejean. Claire Buffie, crowned Miss New York in June, is the first Miss America contestant to compete on a gay rights platform. A trained dancer and Apple employee, she knows her profile may seem unusual for a pageant contestant, and that’s exactly why she believes she can win over America in the competition this January.
In her first interview with the gay press, the 24-year-old Indianapolis native spoke with The Advocate about her platform of improving the climate for LGBT youths in schools, misconceptions about beauty pageant contestants, and the real lesson of Prejean, the 2009 Miss USA runner-up.
Do you think beauty pageant contestants are misunderstood? Yes, I do. Even upon entering my first local for the Miss America organization four years go, I had some of those stereotypes that are very common — the hairspray, the eyelashes, the glue and the tape, and all those things. What I found was a group of incredibly intelligent, driven, and service-minded women. I have found my absolute best friends through this organization.
The Miss America organization is a scholarship organization. Each of us has a platform that we support. Girls support platforms from a variety of places. Things like promoting the arts, arts education in schools, traffic safety, driving safety.
Do you fit the stereotypical mold of a pageant contestant? I don’t think I fit the mold at all, but I think that’s been the greatest part and the reason I have such an effect on people throughout the pageant. My coworkers have said, “No offense, but I didn’t think you were a pageant girl.” It’s empowering women.
What is your day job? I have my own business in commercial portraiture and graphic design. I also work for Apple, but I’m not allowed to say any more about Apple other than I work for the company on the technical side, based on PR restrictions.
How did you get started in competition? I started just four years ago. My platform was a strong reason in getting started. I think it’s an unlikely challenge for this message to be discussed. I competed in Indiana for two years in college. Once I graduated, I came to New York and continued competing. I don’t think I would have continued competing if my platform was not something about which I’m so passionate.
Are you aware of any predecessors who competed on a gay rights platform? In the 90-year history of Miss America, we have not yet found any Miss America contestant who has had this platform. It is quite unique.
Then let him tell us all about having sex with women. However be prepared to think up what else he can talk about for the remaining 59 minutes of the one hour interview.
59 minutes? I will talk about future mother of my kids! An awesome woman of the opposite sex!
With Christopher Nolan behind the next "Batman" movie, taking part in the film could be a dream for every performer. Words on the street are, Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hardy and Joseph Gordon-Levitt who have worked with him in "Inception" are longing to star in untitled Batman 3 project.
The three actors are allegedly battling to play The Ridder in "The Dark Knight" sequel. Comic Book Movie, which obtains the information from an inside source, reports that Warner Bros. allows Nolan to hire one of the actors because of the extra publicity and attention it would bring to the movie as they were praised for their performances in "Inception".
While DiCaprio and Hardy are just added to the list of potential depicter of the movie's villain, Levitt has been linked to the role for quite some time. His status was just listed as "interested" on the list which reportedly mentioned The Riddler as a character which will appear in the upcoming film.
Christopher Nolan is expected to return to the directing seat of "Batman 3" which script is being written by Jonathan Nolan and David S. Goyer. Warner Bros. has secured July 20, 2012 slot for the U.S. release.
As of late, Leonardo DiCaprio was said deciding not to star in untitled Viking project which will be produced by Mel Gibson. The "Titanic" star, however, is on board for producing Catherine Hardwicke-directed thriller "Red Riding Hood".
Tom Hardy, who is possibly best known for playing the title role in British film "Bronson", is set to take a lead role in "Mad Max: Fury Road". He additionally will co-star Reese Witherspoon and Chris Pine in "This Means War".
Joseph Gordon-Levitt, in the meantime, has landed roles in such films as "500 Days of Summer" and "G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra". He is currently in production for "Premium Rush" and will be soon seen in "Hesher" in which he stars as the title character.
Words on the street are, Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hardy and Joseph Gordon-Levitt who have worked with him in "Inception" are longing to star in untitled Batman 3 project.
I would believe Leo is interested in the role only if there is a video of him saying that.
JGL has that elusive quality where he can become any character so that you hardly recognize him in a role (just like someone else we know!). But I would pay good money to see any of those actors in a Nolan Batman film. :)
I don't think Jake has ever spoken from the heart about Heath. All his statements are very scripted-sounding. The contrast with Matt Damon's brief but heartfelt words is noticeable. Jake either doesn't care or cares too much. Probably the former.
I agree. Jake’s comments are really nice and all but yeah, when you put them next to Matt Damon’s or Wes Bentley’s, the lack of, I don’t know, emotion? is noticeable.
Jake wants to please everyone, including the BBM fans, and I think his people learned from their mistakes re. their public handling of Heath’s death. It feels a day late and a dollar short, though.
I also agree that interviewers should stop asking Jake about Heath.
Jake’s comments are really nice and all but yeah, when you put them next to Matt Damon’s or Wes Bentley’s, the lack of, I don’t know, emotion? is noticeable.
What are you talking about? You think people already forgot Q interview? We didn't.
DiCaprio and Hardy have the wrong physique for The Riddler, no actor can play all roles no matter how good he is.
I think so too. JGL is beautifully slender and athletic. His backflips are a wonder. I know we will be in for a treat when and if he and Nolan collaborate on a character. Here's hoping - fingers crossed! :)
Jake is so used to hiding who he is he can't reveal his true emotions. People can sense the difference whether in live interviews or print. He could get away with it when he was younger and appealed to teens. It is holding him back now that his target audience is more mature.
Plus his face is great - he can go from all gentle and soft lips one minute, to a hard-edged and mean looking criminal type. OK, I promise to shut up about him for awhile. ;)
no actor can play all roles no matter how good he is.
That's a good point. Sometimes an actor can change physical appearance to fit a role (DeNiro for Raging Bull and Charlize Theron for Monster), but certain things can't be changed. If Jake plays Namath, he will need some make-up to give him the rougher facial features that Namath has, but basically he's a pretty good fit. Jake bulked up, etc., for PoP, but I wonder how far he'd be willing to go as far as gaining a lot of weight and making himself physically unattractive for a role.
I forgot to say my comment at 11:27was about JGL. I agree about Jake playing Joe Namath tho. Jake has a different kind of beauty than JGL, but they are both beautiful men.
Talk about a hot ticket. Tickets went on sale today for Angels in America, the one with Quinto. A fried went to the box office to try and get us tickets, and she said the line is three blocks long (she couldn't stay). The website for buying tickets has crashed, and I can't get through on the phone.
Didn't you read the same "Christianity" comments about Marc Jacobs or Ricky Martin?
I only saw stuff like that at mainstream media sites when Ricky came out, which get all kinds of people posting, so yeah, anything goes is the rule of the day. I don't recall seeing it at gossip sites, but I don't always read the comments for people like Ricky or Marc.
Sorry, I wasn't clear enough, I've meant "Christianity" comments about Marc Jacobs or Ricky Martin on Just Jared.
Sorry, I wasn't clear enough, I've meant "Christianity" comments about Marc Jacobs or Ricky Martin on Just Jared.
Thanks. Well, them maybe the ones about Bomer were not from our troll. The things people do in the name of Christianity (or any other religion). Funny how they take all the words about sinning literally, but ignore all the ones about loving your neighbor, caring for the poor.....

So much for boyhood experimentation. What a goer! If he were an oil spill he'd be somewhere bewteen China and Exxon's.

What do you mean by "exchange links"?
He appeared last season in a play at the Goodman in Chicago. He starts off the play nude and he has a very nice size dick. He also has a lot of tattoos. But, more importantly, there were a lot of rumors at the theatre that Mr. Hardy was having a fling with one of the understudies...a male understudy.
Go get technical and petty somewhere else.
I wasn't technical or petty. I was just interested in your opinion and it is not my fault you were pissed off last night.

We could not have asked for a more perfect day to celebrate the beginning of their life together, and we are so happy to welcome Marc into our family.”
Just for the record, Clinton wore a strapless beaded gown designed by Vera Wang and Hillary Clinton wore a plum-colored gown by Oscar de la Renta.

Australia's First Showbiz Superhomo Couple
...In December 2007 Campbell confirmed his sexuality in a Melbourne newspaper interview that was widely picked up by other media outlets. Then he insisted he and Callea were "mates", both getting over break-ups with their respective partners. "We were questioned in early times together," Campbell says now, "and we kind of kept saying 'no' because, I mean, really, we'd only just met. You know, 'Are we together?' 'I dunno!"'
By following February, Campbell made "no" a definite "yes" in a radio interview. "We'd just kept denying it and ringing our managers and doing all that game-playing stuff, and we just got to a point where the relationship was really great and we were really happy with it, and [we wanted] to stop speculation fuelling."
So much for boyhood experimentation.
Hey now, maybe Tom is indecisive and still needs to find out if he likes gay sex or not, lol.
What impact might his honesty about his sexuality have on Campbell's career? In April, gay Newsweek writer Ramin Setoodeh criticised gay actor Sean Hayes – gay Jack in sitcom Will and Grace – for being "wooden" as a straight character in a Broadway revival of Promises, Promises.
Setoodeh argued that openly gay actors "still have reason to be scared". "While it's OK for straight actors to play gay (as Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger did in Brokeback Mountain), it's rare for someone to pull off the trick in reverse."
Campbell thinks watching a lot of Will and Grace may have blinkered Setoodeh's critical view. "It will be an interesting time now because I guess I do have a bit of a gay tag as an actor as well, and as much as I'd hate that to get in the way of roles because – oh, look, I've never had an issue; I've never played a gay role on telly or on stage."
Hey now, maybe Tom is indecisive and still needs to find out if he likes gay sex or not, lol.
Tom, my number is 555-3781.
Call him, Jake will be more than happy to help!
Setoodeh argued that openly gay actors "still have reason to be scared". "While it's OK for straight actors to play gay (as Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger did in Brokeback Mountain), it's rare for someone to pull off the trick in reverse."
Setoodeh, you really made your point! Not.
What a gorgeous wedding. *swoon* Congratulations to Chelsea and Marc!
Good luck! :)
From Us (August 9, 2010), if Johnny Depp actually plays Carol Channing in drag, he will officially be the gayest actor in Hollywood to not actually be gay. Ever.

Fake Pregnancy but Real Baby
Despite what the tabloids and glossy mags say, this very famous show business couple in not really pregnant. She had her tubes tied a long time ago. For the next few months, though, her fake, special-effects pregnant stomach made of silicone will slowly grow in size until she “gives birth” to an adopted baby. Since her other child/ren didn’t resemble her, no one will question that fact that this one won’t, either. You’ll get a close-up of the scientifically-made miracle child on the front cover of a magazine (now being negotiated for a hefty fee).

Jake is such a trusting soul. His PR probably tells him his career is going great that he is their number 1 priority and he believes them. Clearly Reese comes first and not Jake.
Inception is #1 3rd week in a row. I wonder how long before we hear that Jake turned down a part in the film.
Gay or straight Tom Hardy is hot. Super hot.

Q: Have the reasons behind gay males often being emotionally attracted to flamboyant, sometimes tragic women (Judy Garland, Cher etc.) ever been discussed or explored? – Jerry, Australia
A: It’s a little known fact that many gay men share several strands of DNA with raccoons: we’re drawn to sparkly things. In truth, no one really knows what’s up with gay men and fabulous female divas – and there might be as many theories as there are gay men. Here’s mine:
Gay men were traditionally very marginalized and oppressed – generally by straight men and the institutions they controlled. There were very, very few out gay men to identify with in entertainment, and we were reluctant to openly identify with our oppressors, so we were drawn to another group of outsiders: women.
But not just any women. Interestingly, we had no interest in demure, quietly-accept-the-status-quo female icons like Donna Reed, Doris Day, or the Virgin Mary (except in an ironic, camp way).
No, we were drawn to women who seemed to want to shake things up: women who seemed to be overcoming the odds of being the the wrong race (Diana, Aretha, Chita, Lena, Eartha), or having a big nose (Barbra, Cher, Bette Midler), or dealing with some kind of addiction (Judy, Liza, Janis), or just the general sense that men were out to abuse or dismiss them, mostly because they couldn’t conform to or wouldn’t play by the rules other men had made up (Bette Davis, Joan Crawford, Lucille Ball, Marlene Dietrich, Elizabeth Taylor, Billie Jean King, and, well, all of the women listed above).
Even if it was sometimes subconscious, these women were demanding, through sheer force of their considerable talent and willpower, a reexamination of social mores.
And there was a subversiveness in how they went about it – a cheeky, wink-wink-nod-nod attitude that went over the head of many straight viewers. Through their choices of songs and roles, these divas could communicate one thing to their gay audiences, while still being conventional enough to find “mainstream” success.
What gay guy, circa 1972, couldn’t relate to that? It was exactly the way we wanted to live our own lives.
And then there are the tragic figures – women like Judy, Marilyn Monroe, and Janis Joplin who were destroyed by not just their own indulgences, but surely by social pressures as well. Perhaps we celebrate them because we understand their pain.
But as I’ve written several times recently, the times are changing – the role of divas is changing too. In a nutshell, this is why Kathy Griffin won’t shut the hell up.

August 01, 2010 2:04 PM— I don’t know if you are trying to be funny or you’re just a moron. I’m guessing both. Mel Gibson should go meet up with 8:17 and crawl back under the rocks they came from.
He's forever on his phone and has said in interviews that his family and friends email interesting things about him, so he must definitely check out various gossip sites online...

No, I’m not.
If someone wrote "Gays killed Jesus" how would you feel?
Mel Gibson had a character in his movie who was gay and tossed him out a window to his death to get cheers from his audience. He then said disgusting things about people who are gay, women, jews, blacks, hispanics, should i go on? Oh, he hit his baby’s mama because “she deserved it.”
I live in the real world. Hate promotes hate.
OK, you are right about 8:17 PM, but I don't really care about lunatics like Mel Gibson in a world where being gay is a crime in more than 70 countries.
I wonder how long before we hear that Jake turned down a part in the film.
I kind of doubt Jake was offered a role in Inception. At least not Leo's, he was hired to draw the audience mainly (imo). Other hot candidates for Leo's role were Will Smith and Brad Pitt.

Back in January, you blogged here at the start of the Source Code process. Can you tell us a bit about how it all panned out after that, the experience of working, the learning experience, the cast, managing a second unit in Chicago etc?
It has been a seismic shift on how I would normally work, but I think I have adjusted ok. It all makes complete sense, when you think about it. With more money, there is more caution, more advice, more suggestion, and over the course of making the film, I had to keep reminding myself that I was asked to direct the film because the people in charge trusted my choices. I think that was the real turning point. At first it was a little over whelming, being second-guessed so much, but I educated myself fast, and fortunately I was supported by the incredibly gracious and talented Jake G, who really got behind me and trusted my instincts. It would have been easy to lose my perspective, with so many others being offered.
...
We’re all REALLY looking forward to Source Code, especially after the great feedback from Jake Gyllenhaal while being interviewed on PoP promotional tour, if you could take a step back, like Worzel Gummidge, and pop on an audience head, what would you think of what you have all achieved?
Too close to it, to be honest! I know that performance-wise we got some great stuff from Jake, Michelle, Vera and Jeffrey. I know that the script was always tight, and the film has a hell of a fast pace to it. I know that I did my best to inject some humor where I could. But other than that, we float, helpless in the post-production maelstrom right now!
Exclusive: Duncan Jones on MOON, Source Code & Judge Dredd
About Tom Hardy: I find it odd that all these commenters (at other blogs) are suddenly coming out of the woodwork and now spilling about their sexual encounters with him. Did they ever mention it before? Did they ever write about it on other sites or their own blogs to record the events? I doubt it. I don't think the encounters ever happened. I'm not saying Hardy isn't gay or bi or had experiences; it's just that now people are jumping on the bandwagon and announcing "Yeah it's totally true - he's gay! I've had sex with Tom Hardy!" when I'm sure they didn't even know the man existed until they read that interview.
Did mainstream media (like Daily Mail) discuss Tom Hardy's sexuality before? I don't think so. There has to be the first time for everything, and that includes talking about sexual encounters.
fortunately I was supported by the incredibly gracious and talented Jake G, who really got behind me and trusted my instincts
Awwwww!
No one talked about Tom Hardy and/or his sex life before because no one gave a fuck about him until Inception. He was mostly just in British shows and films.
Even though PR dialed it back, the fact that Tom Hardy said as much as he did (shoe cliches and "it doesn't do it for me now" notwithstanding) in the original Attitude interview is viewed positively by some. Interesting that Frank and Andy - a blog from my generation - taps him and others like Enrique and Cesc for being progressive.
The New Leading Man
Perhaps then, this is the new leading man. While gay actors like Matt Bomer, whose double life includes a husband and kids, or Zachary Quinto and Wentworth Miller, continue to perpetuate the false attitude that to be open about your sexuality is career ending, clearly Tom isn’t too caught up in the implications of his sexuality. He’s incredibly attractive, in the summer’s biggest Hollywood blockbuster, and is a father, engaged to a beautiful woman. I’ll go out on a limb here and say Tom Hardy probably doesn’t lose sleep over his sexuality, or silly newspaper headlines for that matter.
Frank and Andy go to mention attitudes and this made me think of Jake on Jonathan Ross gagging at suggestion of a man kiss.
... For example last week, Enrique Iglesias appeared on Lopez Tonight to promote his new album Euphoria. When male fans in the audience cheered loudly, George Lopez asked Enrique if he’d ever kissed a guy before. As his male fans cheered louder, Enrique recalled performing recently at the London gay club G-A-Y where he serenaded a male fan on stage, something he has done before (see the video at left, taken at a concert several years ago. Enrique couldn’t be more cool). When George Lopez persisted by saying, “So you’re not opposed to kissing a dude,” Enrique asked, “You mean like, experimenting?” Before leaning in to kiss George on the cheek. The audience cheers, both men laugh, and for a gay guy watching, you can see Enrique gets it. His fans get it. Who he’s personally attracted to is irrelevant.
A similar television moment took place in Spain following the World Cup. At the conclusion of a short on camera interview with Spanish soccer star Cesc Fabregas, the television reporter Raul Gomez asked Cesc if he would fufill his dream of kissing a World Cup champion. Although the kiss is humorous, Cesc agrees with out hesitation. It’s a small gesture, but the lack of resistance, of self-awareness, of will this spark headlines or tarnish my public image self-doubt, is significant. It’s just a kiss.
For some, there's a difference between playing gay on screen and kissing another man in real life or admitting to it. I like actors like Ewan McGregor, who have few hangups about either.
Queerty: So Is Tom Hardy Not Formerly Bisexual? Or Just Scared Screwing Dudes Will Ruin His Future In Hollywood?
Comment to the Queerty article-
No. 30 · Erick
Seriously Queerty, get your act together, find the facts before you start "reporting".
Those quotes were taken by the Daily Mail from an Attitude Magazine interview from 2009 regarding his role in Rockanrolla. Those quotes most of the media regurgitated last week were taken out of context by the Daily Mail and did not accredited to Attitude.
If you read the original interview he said he fooled around with guys when was a kid, but guys dont do it for him. He in no way shape or form said he was bisexual, so he does not have to backtrack.
So when they say his comment were taken out of context is true, by the loathsome Daily Mail. In the original interview he is actually very honest and cool about playing around with guys in his teens, which is more than the majority of guys would even begin to admit to themselves.
Dont star hating on a cool guy who seems like an ally when you dont have all the facts
Obviously "White Collar" is his big break, but I'd definitely go back and watch some of his older stuff if you haven't seen it. :)
Thanks. I tried watching Chuck when it first started and couldn't get into it, but I'll try to check out the other two shows.
Not to stir things up since it was last night/earlier today, but I think "Jew boy" is offensive, and I don't know anyone Jewish who would ever use that, and certainly not as some kind of terms of endearment as someone suggested. The word "Jew" just in of itself is often used in a derogatory way, therefore the preferred term is Jewish. maybe it is because of the Holocaust, but Jews just don't throw around words that way, say, rappers throw around the "N" word.
I saw the comment at 8:17 when I glanced here earlier but didn't have time to comment, and am glad to see that one is gone too. Also offensive and anti-Semitic.
I'm hungry.

The film, which looks into the military's cover-up of Tillman's death from friendly fire in Afghanistan in 2004, was hosted by Russell Baer, a soldier in Tillman's platoon, at the Chilmark Community Center in Martha's Vineyard.

It didn't take long for X-Factor winner Joe McElderry's past to come forward following the young singer's revelation that he was gay on Friday.
Sean Ryan, a trainee hairdresser and model, went to UK's Sun tabloid to talk about how he was the singer's first kiss after meeting him backstage at the X-Factor audition:
"I got up to go home. I turned round and he made the first move and kissed me. It was definitely the first time he'd kissed a guy because he told me. He said he'd kissed a few girls but never had sex. It was a long passionate kiss. But that was all that happened and I left...He was shy and turned away when I leaned towards him. I could see he had the uncertainty I had felt at his age....[A week later they did kiss] Joe opened the door in pyjamas. His mum was out so we lay on the settee and kissed and cuddled. We didn't ever get any more intimate than that...He's been brave. It can't have been easy doing that in the public eye."
Over the weekend McElderry expressed gratitude for all the support he's received since coming out.

Has anyone ever talked about or admitted to having sex with Jake, besides Ted and the almost-did JG Francis?
Ted had sex with Jake??? ;)
DL guy said he kissed Jake in some NYC club during Columbia University days. He complained a bit about Jake being a smoker.
Thanks Destiny for your post.
Sean Ryan, a trainee hairdresser and model, went to UK's Sun tabloid to talk about how he was the singer's first kiss...
Hmm... Before or after Joe came out?
Dear Ted:
Is there anyone in Hollywood that is not full of vices? Or anyone that you consider such an awesome person you just can't write anything bad about them?
—B
Dear Optimist:
You don't get anywhere in Hollywood by being sweet. If I were to say a couple of babes I'm quite fond of, but who are hardly flawless, it would be George Clooney and Meryl Streep. Tho Meryl is about as close to perfect as you'll get in this town.
Dear Ted:
Love that you're loving on Joseph Gordon-Levitt now! Totes agree. One of the best. Had the pleasure of meeting him once...class act. Anyway, you got it wrong about who he's dating. His GF is Lexy Hulme...a dancer. It's pretty serious from what I hear. So, are the rumors about him working with Kristen Stewart true? Read it on your board and was wondering. If so, would totally love that. They're both terrific actors. What are your thoughts?
—JGL fan
Dear Premature Excitement:
Knew JGL and Lexi were going strong at Sundance, but, not sure if that's still the case, babe. Either way, the guy's a total sweetheart and über-talented. He's gonna be big in Hollywood, no doubt. Haven't heard anything definitive on the K.Stew stuff, but think it's a fab idea.
Dear Ted:
What's your opinion of Ian Halperin? He seems to ride the coattails of your Blind Vices, outs celebrities without any valid proof and constantly plugs his own "tell-all" books and movies. Is this guy legit, or nothing more than a shifty fraudster?
—E
Dear Imitation Is Flattery:
I know very little about Ian, personally, only that he's been very gracious with me the few times we've spoken.
Dear Ted:
I'm a huge fan of HBO's True Blood. I've noticed that its stars frequent talk shows around key promo times (such as Chelsea Lately, Regis & Kelly). All of the main stars have made appearances except for my personal fave, Alexander Skarsgård. What gives?
–M
Dear Good Question:
Guess he's the kinda guy who likes to bite dudes tushes and not have to discuss it.
Bitch-Back! What’s the Dirt on Garrett Hedlund?
JGL is fantastic. I do hope he'll be in the next Batman. :)
Dear Imitation Is Flattery:
I know very little about Ian, personally, only that he's been very gracious with me the few times we've spoken.
How nice is that? :)
I've been loving and rooting for JGL since Mysterious Skin. I'm glad he finally made it into a really good action movie instead of crap like G.I. Joe, a movie I couldn't bring myself to go see despite his presence in it.
^^I can't wait to see MS. From the clips I saw, it looks really good. Brick too. G.I. Joe isn't really my kind of action film, but classic Batman and Spiderman, and if Nolan is attached to it as rumored, Superman, are definitely my cup of tea. I think JGL would make a great Bat-Villain. Nolan seems to know what the guys like in an action film, but what women like too. His Gotham world is the most real I have ever seen, not cartoonish. The Joker - enuf said. ;) I hope The Riddler will be that way - not cartoonish and more of a man.
G.I. Joe was JGL's PoP.
Nathan Lane joins Modern Family!
Nathan Lane is spending some time with the 'Family' next season.
Lane, star of Broadway and the movies, will play Pepper, a friend of Cam (Eric Stonestreet) and Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson) on the ABC series 'Modern Family,' according to the Vulture report. He's described in the report as their "ultraflamboyant" friend, and that's saying something considering the personalities of the outwardly blissful Cam and Mitchell.
Lane is booked for a single episode. Although producers are attempting to keep the guest stars to a minimum in the upcoming season, the Lane spot was too hard to resist, according to the report. "Nathan was just too perfect for the role," said executive producer Steve Levitan.
How will he fit in? An old flame of Mitchell, who seems to go for the big and burly types? A babysitter for Lily? We shall see.
Season two of 'Modern Family' premieres on ABC Weds. Sept. 22 at 9PM ET.
Wow! :)
He's described in the report as their "ultraflamboyant" friend, and that's saying something considering the personalities of the outwardly blissful Cam and Mitchell.
Are they going for the gayest TV episode ever? :)
I love Nathan. :)
I think he should be the old flame. :)
I think there should be menage à trois!
:) It's a prime time show!
So? I always have a prime time doing menage à trois!
:)
I've loved JGL ever since 3rd Rock from the Sun. Tommy!!
^^I know, I always loved that show and he was one of the best things about it. So funny and very cute. Nice to see him all grown up now. All of the cast, as well.
Silly Bandz are all the rage with the kids, replacing those Livestrong rubber wrist bands. Neil Patrick Harris owns a few. He has a dolphin one. A pineapple one.
And oh look, a rooster.
There's A Reason Neil Patrick Harris Wears a Cock Around His Wrist
:)
NPH looks great, doesn't he?
There's A Reason Neil Patrick Harris Wears a Cock Around His Wrist
LMAO, Craig was great :)
1:28 PM #1 - he does!
Craig is very funny. :)
NPH looks great, doesn't he?
He looks fantastic! I'll bet he feels great, too, not having to deal with all the subterfuge of the closet.
I want to see Jake and Craig! Please! :)
I love the way NPH isn't afraid to be sexual, it really goes against what you'd expect of him too.
Loved JGL on 30 Rock. And how could I forget, on That 70s Show crushing on Topher Grace.
Modern Family is one of my favorite shows, I hope it keeps up the pace and doesn't have a sophmore year slump in the writing. Can't wait to see Nathan Lane.
Oops, 3rd Rock, not 30 Rock, lol.
G.I. Joe - I take it back, JGL looks great in uniform. :)
Why the hell did my Mel parody that he actually said comments get blasted!??
That's what the man said! And they're all classics!
About Tom Hardy: I find it odd that all these commenters (at other blogs) are suddenly coming out of the woodwork and now spilling about their sexual encounters with him. Did they ever mention it before? Did they ever write about it on other sites or their own blogs to record the events? I doubt it. I don't think the encounters ever happened. I'm not saying Hardy isn't gay or bi or had experiences; it's just that now people are jumping on the bandwagon and announcing "Yeah it's totally true - he's gay! I've had sex with Tom Hardy!" when I'm sure they didn't even know the man existed until they read that interview.
Umm, because America didn't give two hoots about him before Inception and before he's due to become Mad Max XVIII?
How many write-ups about Tom Hardy did you rush off and find before this one appeared? The grand total of...none maybe? Because no-one in the US knew who he was?
That's what the man said! And they're all classics!
Mel Gibson's phone tirades are an example that truth really is stranger than fiction. No one could make that shit up.
That's what the man said! And they're all classics!
You are right, he said that and a lot of other things we would like to forget.
And a source at the screening tells us that Jake, hung around "to meet Baer" after the screening.
A gold star for Jake.
If you read the original interview he said he fooled around with guys when was a kid, but guys dont do it for him. He in no way shape or form said he was bisexual, so he does not have to backtrack.
I agree, but in my opinion Tom H did protest too much.
I was trying to catch up on Bomer posts during lunch. The only reason I'm bringing this up is that I can't believe the hate being spewed on the JJ post on Saturday, a lot of it in the name of "Christianity". I could be wrong, but what with the anti-Semitic posts on here on Saturday, plus some digs at Bomer that seemed to come from our troll, I couldn't help but think our freeper loving troll was working himself up and spewing all over the internet.
You have to really be sick to get your jollies doing that.
And wow, three ONTD posts on Bomer just over the weekend. Haven't caught up on those yet.
Interesting new interview on WDW (there are some new pics and Jake mentions how Heath's death made him want to be a better actor):

I don't have time to look for them now, I just remember that there were some posts slamming Bomer for not being more open in that interview with Houston magazine. Some struck me as honest opinions, some struck me as trollish because of the recognizable way they were worded and the angry, condescending tone.
The only reason I'm bringing this up is that I can't believe the hate being spewed on the JJ post on Saturday, a lot of it in the name of "Christianity".
Why not? Didn't you read the same "Christianity" comments about Marc Jacobs or Ricky Martin? I'm surprised that there aren't more comments like that, Roman Catholic Church has more than a billion members and Roman Catholic Church teaches that homosexuality is a moral evil (or worse).
Dogs mimic movements of owners
Fuck!
Umm, because America didn't give two hoots about him before Inception and before he's due to become Mad Max XVIII?
Umm, no. My point is: all these people are coming out of the woodwork to say they had gay sex with Hardy while there are no previously documented accounts from 1) British/non-US people 2) fans/followers/groupies from early-on in his career 3) someone who wrote about a sexual encounter with an up and coming British TV/movie star with say, the initials of TH.
Dogs mimic movements of owners
Daddy take me to the park so I can hump all the cute boy dogs.
I was at a mechanic's today for my car. It was a new shop I'd never been to before. While I was quietly reading, waiting, about 3 of the male mechanics were close to me standing on the other side of an open door and I could hear them chat. One of them brought up something and the other said "well call your ex-bf and ask him about it" and one of them said "no way would I call him" and the third guy said "why not, don't you still talk after all this time since you broke up?" LOL I don't know which ones were gay or if one was and the other two were supportive but it was surprising (and nice) to hear.
6:10 PM - gays have sex and then run to post a report about it on some forum or blog. And, believe it or not, most gays have enought self respect not to post about it on the Net.
6:10 PM - gays DON'T have sex and then run to post a report about it on some forum or blog. And, believe it or not, most gays have enought self respect not to post about it on the Net.
Oh come on, you know the first sentence in 6:30 is closer to the truth, lol.
I don't know which ones were gay or if one was and the other two were supportive but it was surprising (and nice) to hear.
Great :)
Like my friend says: first there was telegraph, then there was telephone, now it's telegay.
WDW - Jake Gyllenhaal on how Heath Ledger always inspires him to want to be a better actor
"Q: Your friend and "Brokeback" co-star Heath Ledger died in 2008.Has your view of life changed since?
JG: It sounds kind of funny that what I had focused on so far that had become so important, became even more important in my life. I refer to my work. It was even more important because I felt that what Heath had done was so extraordinary and inspiring. So I always want to be a better actor. On the other side of me as a human being, it was clear that it's just my job. I think that - mainly in the film industry - there are people who think that they will never grow old, never die. Heath has gone from us much too soon. I've noticed a distinction between work and life."
~~~~~~~
Nice words about Heath. But I thought Jake said he wasn't going to talk about Heath because it was no one's business? I thought he said Heath would "roll his eyes" if he spoke about him? I guess it depends on how he feels the day he's asked.
About Tom Hardy: I find it odd that all these commenters (at other blogs) are suddenly coming out of the woodwork and now spilling about their sexual encounters with him. Did they ever mention it before? Did they ever write about it on other sites or their own blogs to record the events? I doubt it. I don't think the encounters ever happened. I'm not saying Hardy isn't gay or bi or had experiences; it's just that now people are jumping on the bandwagon and announcing "Yeah it's totally true - he's gay! I've had sex with Tom Hardy!" when I'm sure they didn't even know the man existed until they read that interview.
^^ this is the kind of shit that bothers me. there was no coming out of the woodwork of past sexual partners with the bi female celebrities. No past partners, no ridicule from the male gay community, the female gay comm., no backlash. this is part of why male stars who deal with both sexes in the past and currently, don't speak about it. why bother? You are only gonna be labeled as gay or lying.. From the str8 commuinity, the gay comm. and all the tabloids will take shots at you.
Now one speaks about his sexual experiences openly, (somewhat), in an interview from years ago, and now all hell breaks loose.
there was no coming out of the woodwork of past sexual partners with the bi female celebrities.
One more time - Tom Hardy never said or suggested that he's bisexual, he claims to be STRAIGHT.
this is part of why male stars who deal with both sexes in the past and currently, don't speak about it.
Remember Mika? You belive he's bisexual?
Michael Stipe and Elton John lied about being bisexual, too.
But I thought Jake said he wasn't going to talk about Heath because it was no one's business? I thought he said Heath would "roll his eyes" if he spoke about him?
Jake never said that, you need to read more carefully.
Didn't you read the same "Christianity" comments about Marc Jacobs or Ricky Martin?
I only saw stuff like that at mainstream media sites when Ricky came out, which get all kinds of people posting, so yeah, anything goes is the rule of the day. I don't recall seeing it at gossip sites, but I don't always read the comments for people like Ricky or Marc.
Couple of thoughts about all the commentators coming out of the woodwork about Hardy. Some of them could be true, and maybe some of them didn't want to talk about him before now so as to not out him.
But generally I tend to believe these stories more when the person is not that well-known, or when you find old stories when you go back and look for them after the fact.
Why chatter about men, but not women? I think men like to boast more than women. I also suspect that in a lot of cases of bisexuality and women it may have just been a few partners, while I suspect with men there's more partners.
men like to boast more than women
True!
in a lot of cases of bisexuality and women it may have just been a few partners
True!
with men there's more partners
True!!!
Let's face it, whether gay, straight or bisexual, most men are sluts.

Hardy was too low on the food chain to warrant any scrutiny before Inception. If a story had been posted about him most people would not have had a clue who he was or cared so no point in mentioning his name.
Tom Hardy never said or suggested that he's bisexual, he claims to be STRAIGHT.
As does Jake, yet here's this whole website devoted to his gay life. :)
In that German interview, Jake also said he was single.
Luckily no one ever believes a word Jake says. ;)
Let's face it, whether gay, straight or bisexual, most men are sluts.
Duh! :)
But I thought Jake said he wasn't going to talk about Heath because it was no one's business? I thought he said Heath would "roll his eyes" if he spoke about him?
Me, too! So now Heath wouldn’t roll his eyes? These so very nice answers to Heath questions sound like they were written by Jake’s PR. Well Jake was doing promo work.
Is POP the result of Jake wanting to be a better actor? Heath, do us all a favor and stop inspiring him. ;)
I thought he said Heath would "roll his eyes" if he spoke about him?
Jake did NOT say that, he said:
"The experience Heath and I had was also shared publicly with all the press and publicity we did. But what we shared as friends, though I respect the interest that so many people have in the mourning and grieving process and how it feels to other people, I feel like — and I don’t mean this in an unkind way — but I don’t think it’s anybody’s business but his and mine. So in that sense, to really respect him — and also the way he felt about his life and his private life and what he cared about, because he was a deeply caring and loving human being — every time anybody asks me any question about him, it would be like he was sitting next to me, and I know he would roll his eyes, because that’s the way he was. It was between us.”
These so very nice answers to Heath questions sound like they were written by Jake’s PR.
PR writes answers for Jake because he can't find nice things to say about his friends or because he's too dumb to talk about his life?
Hardy was too low on the food chain to warrant any scrutiny before Inception.
In the USA. But in the UK, things started heating up a few years ago. Then with RocknRolla and Bronson (which is a masterpiece performance by Hardy) quite a few people took notice.
Is POP the result of Jake wanting to be a better actor? Heath, do us all a favor and stop inspiring him. ;)
:-D
These so very nice answers to Heath questions sound like they were written by Jake’s PR.
I don't think Jake has ever spoken from the heart about Heath. All his statements are very scripted-sounding. The contrast with Matt Damon's brief but heartfelt words is noticeable.
Jake either doesn't care or cares too much. Probably the former.

Bullshit. Keep pretending that Jake didn't say what he said about Heath.

Ungrateful bitch!
Jake did NOT say that, he said...
I know what Jake said. I've read it more than once. "every time anybody asks me any question about him, it would be like he was sitting next to me, and I know he would roll his eyes"
So, what's the difference in what I wrote and what he said? Someone asked him a question about Heath. This time he answered. He didn't say it was no one's business and apparently he didn't think Heath would roll his eyes at the answer he gave. He's being inconsistent, which is fine, maybe it depends on his mood. There's no reason to be so defensive about him. I don't agree with the poster who said that Jake's answers are PR written. I think they're from the heart - but he's still inconsistent.
Someone asked him a question about Heath. This time he answered.
I thought it was more than clear - Jake doesn't want to talk about PRIVATE part of their relationship or private Heath.
Open letter to interviewers: Forget about getting Jake to talk about Heath. Ask him questions about his sex life instead!
Our client is 100% heterosexual, interested only in the women of the opposite sex!
I thought it was more than clear - Jake doesn't want to talk about PRIVATE part of their relationship or private Heath.
That's not what Jake said. "every time anybody asks me any question about him. He said said "any" question. He could've qualified that and he didn't. The interviewer he gave that answer to wasn't asking him about the "private" part of their relationship.
Then let him tell us all about having sex with women. However be prepared to think up what else he can talk about for the remaining 59 minutes of the one hour interview.
That's not what Jake said.
That is exactly what Jake said. Please read 5:23 AM quote, all four sentences of it.
Jake is always glued to his family. He's the very definition of family guy. A bit on the boring side, but he's still a good catch. ;)
Good catch? For a woman, it would mean being a beard for the duration. For a man, it would mean hiding and pretending for the duration. Hardly what most women or men dream about.
Unless he's straight, of course. Then he's hubby material for fangirls.
Jake doesn't want to talk about PRIVATE part of their relationship or private Heath.
lol - the only part that's interesting.
I know, I know, tough shit for nosy parkers. ;)
Bullshit. Keep pretending that Jake didn't say what he said about Heath.
I don't recall anything worth writing to Heath's parents about.
That is exactly what Jake said. Please read 5:23 AM quote, all four sentences of it.
I have read all four sentences. If you read the interview from which this is taken, the interviewer did not ask Jake any "private" questions or ask him to betray a confidence he had with Heath. Sorry, but I see Jake as being inconsistent. Again, it's not a criticism so there's no need to be defensive. Jake has previously spoken about the fact that he was enamored of Heath - that's a personal feeling. Why wouldn't Heath roll his eyes at that? I kind of think he would. Jake also answered, I think it was in a Russian interview, a question about what was going on with Heath before he died, his frame of mind, was he in a bad way, etc. Jake didn't decline to answer that question, although he certainly could have. I don't remember his exact answer, but it was something along the lines that he had been in contact with him and didn't sense that anything was wrong. Anyway, my point is - he has spoken about personal things to some extent, and that's why I think it's inconsitent, but maybe you're defining it differently.
Miss New York Becomes First Miss America Contestant With Gay Rights Platform
A Beauty Queen to Believe In
By Julie Bolcer
Move over, Carrie Prejean. Claire Buffie, crowned Miss New York in June, is the first Miss America contestant to compete on a gay rights platform. A trained dancer and Apple employee, she knows her profile may seem unusual for a pageant contestant, and that’s exactly why she believes she can win over America in the competition this January.
In her first interview with the gay press, the 24-year-old Indianapolis native spoke with The Advocate about her platform of improving the climate for LGBT youths in schools, misconceptions about beauty pageant contestants, and the real lesson of Prejean, the 2009 Miss USA runner-up.
Do you think beauty pageant contestants are misunderstood?
Yes, I do. Even upon entering my first local for the Miss America organization four years go, I had some of those stereotypes that are very common — the hairspray, the eyelashes, the glue and the tape, and all those things. What I found was a group of incredibly intelligent, driven, and service-minded women. I have found my absolute best friends through this organization.
The Miss America organization is a scholarship organization. Each of us has a platform that we support. Girls support platforms from a variety of places. Things like promoting the arts, arts education in schools, traffic safety, driving safety.
Do you fit the stereotypical mold of a pageant contestant?
I don’t think I fit the mold at all, but I think that’s been the greatest part and the reason I have such an effect on people throughout the pageant. My coworkers have said, “No offense, but I didn’t think you were a pageant girl.” It’s empowering women.
What is your day job?
I have my own business in commercial portraiture and graphic design. I also work for Apple, but I’m not allowed to say any more about Apple other than I work for the company on the technical side, based on PR restrictions.
How did you get started in competition?
I started just four years ago. My platform was a strong reason in getting started. I think it’s an unlikely challenge for this message to be discussed. I competed in Indiana for two years in college. Once I graduated, I came to New York and continued competing. I don’t think I would have continued competing if my platform was not something about which I’m so passionate.
Are you aware of any predecessors who competed on a gay rights platform?
In the 90-year history of Miss America, we have not yet found any Miss America contestant who has had this platform. It is quite unique.
Bitch!
Claire Buffie, crowned Miss New York in June, is the first Miss America contestant to compete on a gay rights platform.
A gold star for Claire :)
Then let him tell us all about having sex with women. However be prepared to think up what else he can talk about for the remaining 59 minutes of the one hour interview.
59 minutes? I will talk about future mother of my kids! An awesome woman of the opposite sex!
Unless he's straight, of course.
Gay men can turn straight?
Leonardo DiCaprio & Tom Hardy Join Joseph Gordon-Levitt In The Riddler Competition
With Christopher Nolan behind the next "Batman" movie, taking part in the film could be a dream for every performer. Words on the street are, Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hardy and Joseph Gordon-Levitt who have worked with him in "Inception" are longing to star in untitled Batman 3 project.
The three actors are allegedly battling to play The Ridder in "The Dark Knight" sequel. Comic Book Movie, which obtains the information from an inside source, reports that Warner Bros. allows Nolan to hire one of the actors because of the extra publicity and attention it would bring to the movie as they were praised for their performances in "Inception".
While DiCaprio and Hardy are just added to the list of potential depicter of the movie's villain, Levitt has been linked to the role for quite some time. His status was just listed as "interested" on the list which reportedly mentioned The Riddler as a character which will appear in the upcoming film.
Christopher Nolan is expected to return to the directing seat of "Batman 3" which script is being written by Jonathan Nolan and David S. Goyer. Warner Bros. has secured July 20, 2012 slot for the U.S. release.
As of late, Leonardo DiCaprio was said deciding not to star in untitled Viking project which will be produced by Mel Gibson. The "Titanic" star, however, is on board for producing Catherine Hardwicke-directed thriller "Red Riding Hood".
Tom Hardy, who is possibly best known for playing the title role in British film "Bronson", is set to take a lead role in "Mad Max: Fury Road". He additionally will co-star Reese Witherspoon and Chris Pine in "This Means War".
Joseph Gordon-Levitt, in the meantime, has landed roles in such films as "500 Days of Summer" and "G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra". He is currently in production for "Premium Rush" and will be soon seen in "Hesher" in which he stars as the title character.
Words on the street are, Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hardy and Joseph Gordon-Levitt who have worked with him in "Inception" are longing to star in untitled Batman 3 project.
I would believe Leo is interested in the role only if there is a video of him saying that.
Keep us posted! :)
JGL has that elusive quality where he can become any character so that you hardly recognize him in a role (just like someone else we know!). But I would pay good money to see any of those actors in a Nolan Batman film. :)
DiCaprio and Hardy have the wrong physique for The Riddler, no actor can play all roles no matter how good he is.
I don't think Jake has ever spoken from the heart about Heath. All his statements are very scripted-sounding. The contrast with Matt Damon's brief but heartfelt words is noticeable.
Jake either doesn't care or cares too much. Probably the former.
I agree. Jake’s comments are really nice and all but yeah, when you put them next to Matt Damon’s or Wes Bentley’s, the lack of, I don’t know, emotion? is noticeable.
Jake wants to please everyone, including the BBM fans, and I think his people learned from their mistakes re. their public handling of Heath’s death. It feels a day late and a dollar short, though.
I also agree that interviewers should stop asking Jake about Heath.
Leonardo DiCaprio would agree to play a supporting character?
Jake’s comments are really nice and all but yeah, when you put them next to Matt Damon’s or Wes Bentley’s, the lack of, I don’t know, emotion? is noticeable.
What are you talking about? You think people already forgot Q interview? We didn't.
^^ GQ interview
DiCaprio and Hardy have the wrong physique for The Riddler, no actor can play all roles no matter how good he is.
I think so too. JGL is beautifully slender and athletic. His backflips are a wonder. I know we will be in for a treat when and if he and Nolan collaborate on a character. Here's hoping - fingers crossed! :)
Jake is so used to hiding who he is he can't reveal his true emotions. People can sense the difference whether in live interviews or print. He could get away with it when he was younger and appealed to teens. It is holding him back now that his target audience is more mature.
Plus his face is great - he can go from all gentle and soft lips one minute, to a hard-edged and mean looking criminal type. OK, I promise to shut up about him for awhile. ;)
Plus his face is great
Duh!
no actor can play all roles no matter how good he is.
That's a good point. Sometimes an actor can change physical appearance to fit a role (DeNiro for Raging Bull and Charlize Theron for Monster), but certain things can't be changed. If Jake plays Namath, he will need some make-up to give him the rougher facial features that Namath has, but basically he's a pretty good fit. Jake bulked up, etc., for PoP, but I wonder how far he'd be willing to go as far as gaining a lot of weight and making himself physically unattractive for a role.
I forgot to say my comment at 11:27was about JGL. I agree about Jake playing Joe Namath tho. Jake has a different kind of beauty than JGL, but they are both beautiful men.
I forgot to say my comment at 11:27 was about JGL.

I wonder how far he'd be willing to go as far as gaining a lot of weight and making himself physically unattractive for a role
I hope Jake wouldn't do that, no role is worth misusing your body like that.
Talk about a hot ticket. Tickets went on sale today for Angels in America, the one with Quinto. A fried went to the box office to try and get us tickets, and she said the line is three blocks long (she couldn't stay). The website for buying tickets has crashed, and I can't get through on the phone.
Look at Bale tho, he really does that for a role. He's totally gorgeous too, btw.
Wow, that's great about Angels in America. I love Quinto too. Can't wait for that George Gershwin biopic. That will be an event, at least for me.
My favorite leading men - Bale, Quinto, JGL, JBG, and HAL. :)
Didn't you read the same "Christianity" comments about Marc Jacobs or Ricky Martin?
I only saw stuff like that at mainstream media sites when Ricky came out, which get all kinds of people posting, so yeah, anything goes is the rule of the day. I don't recall seeing it at gossip sites, but I don't always read the comments for people like Ricky or Marc.
Sorry, I wasn't clear enough, I've meant "Christianity" comments about Marc Jacobs or Ricky Martin on Just Jared.
And Leo should be on that list too. :)
And also Christoph Waltz....I think that's it. :)

Thanks. Well, them maybe the ones about Bomer were not from our troll. The things people do in the name of Christianity (or any other religion). Funny how they take all the words about sinning literally, but ignore all the ones about loving your neighbor, caring for the poor.....
Exactly. :) Loving one another, the Golden rule, throwing the first stone, etc etc.
the line is three blocks long
I better get fillet mignon every night with all the money Daddy's making.
