August 4, 2010 - Proposition 8 ruled unconstitutional
From the ruling: "Proposition 8 fails to advance any rational basis in singling out gay men and lesbians for denial of a marriage license. Indeed the evidence shows Proposition 8 does nothing more than enshrine in the California constitution the notion that opposite sex couples are superior to same sex couples."

«Oldest ‹Older 3201 – 3400 of 3460 Newer› Newest»I thought so, but couldn't believe "those same folks don't believe there is such a thing as a beard" because they are over 21 and Jake fans who use the Internet so that's impossible.
Impossible that DC forum posters believe beards don't exist in Hollywood.

Um, I was being facetious :) Yes, they know there are such things as "beards" - but most of them don't think that term would ever apply to Jake, except for his facial hair :)
He is absolutely not dating anyone at the moment; if he were, he wouldn't look like Grizzly Adams. Hollyscoop is just quoting Perez. Ridiculous nonsense.
I don't really get why Hscoop would scoop a story that is supposedly already dead and buried and denied by all parties concerned. That seems way behind the times to me.
I wonder if his PR is floating this story to get a feel for the pub's reaction to it. I kinda got the feeling that's what they did before Reeke started - there were rumors of them together and then not for several weeks before they were actually pic'd together. Maybe if the public had hated it - thru pic comments, etc - then it would've died a quiet death. But folks thought they were cute, etc, and glad for her not to be alone after the crappy way RP treated her, and altho the JIG crowd was big then, they/we weren't as vehement or vocal as we are now after years of being subjected to Reeke-O-Rama.
So anyway, i think they are putting up a test balloon to see if the public would buy it or if they are both too tainted by their most recent (bearding) relationships.
Or it might just be stupid gossip put out there just so people who don't know or care much beyond what they read on a gossip site can say, "oh yay, jake has a new gf."
The folks who post at lashes are divided on the beard issue, but we can't discusss it, so if you read over there, you would think everyone totally goes along with Reeke as the real deal. Whenever Reeke pix get posted, some of us barf about it. I challenged them the other day to post pics of him with some of his other many, happy gf's, but no one took me up on it. Not sure why. ??? s.
Why is Jake Gyllenhaal Covering His Mouth in the "Love and Other Drugs" Poster?
Love and Other Drugs is the Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway movie that has been marketed — depending on which trailer you saw — as both a sex-forward romantic comedy and a serious-illness weepie. At right is the poster for the film, which seems to position the movie as the former (naked movie stars smiling in bed = sex-forward romantic comedy) — or does it? Ask yourself, why is Jake Gyllenhaal covering his mouth with his hand?
Yes, this is nitpicky, but, also, strange! Really look at that—it gets weirder the longer you stare. What is going on? Is Jake trying not to laugh? His eyes aren't smiling. Is he surprised? He doesn't look it, and besides, what's he surprised about? That a photographer showed up in his bedroom? Is he making the universal sign for "speak no evil"? Again, why? The poster doesn’t convey enough information about his character, or his relationship, for us to think he has a problem running his mouth. Meanwhile, why is Hathaway so contentedly oblivious to whatever inner turmoil is going on with Jake and his mouth? He's not the one with a serious illness! She is! Is her illness the subtext of Jake's gesture? Like, don't ask Jake Gyllenhaal if this is a movie about Parkinson's disease or sex, because he won't tell you? He can keep a secret! This movie can keep a secret! The secret being, maybe it's not just a sex-forward romantic comedy? Woah. Clearly, we have now spent more than a reasonable amount of time pondering the meaning of this poster, and are not sure we have arrived at a satisfactory explanation. Can you help?
Re: the ? about why J has his hand over his mouth in the poster. I kinda wondered about that too, but i just assumed he just did it in one of the pictures to be silly or whatever and it turned out to be cute so they went with it. Or maybe he's implying that he doesn't kiss and tell, or oops! you caught me in bed with yet another woman - cause his char in that movie is supposed to be a real slut, i think.
anyway, interesting question, i thought. s.
It would be better if Jake looked for a good script rather than a new beard. This man is starting to become a disappointment.
anyway, interesting question
Interesting indeed and I have no idea what to think about the poster except that it is very misleading if I'm right about LAOD synopsis.

Kirsten Dunst's Purse Thief Sentenced to Four Years in Jail
The man accused of breaking into Kirsten Dunst's hotel room and stealing an expensive handbag was sentenced to four years in jail on Tuesday, UsMagazine.com reports. Mechanic James Jimenez was convicted of burglary and trespassing after he stole a $2,000 Balenciaga handbag from the actress's New York City hotel room in 2007.
Dunst was in NYC to film the movie 'How to Lose Friends and Alienate People' co-starring Megan Fox and Simon Pegg. Jimenez was also found guilty of stealing a cell phone from Pegg among other things from the hotel.
During his trial, Jimenez pleaded innocent, saying repeatedly, he didn't "understand why I'm being charged." He claimed his co-defendant Jarrod Beinerman (who pled guilty in 2008) was the one who stole the items when he was invited to Dunst's room to sell drugs. Dunst denied the drug claims.
"She certainly didn't have to come to this trial and lie," Jimenez's attorney Robert Parker told the NY Daily News, and cited an interview where the actress supported the legalization of marijuana. "I will certainly build a case against Ms. Dunst. I don't think there's a person on this planet who would believe... she doesn't smoke marijuana," he said.
i think it's misleading too. i don't get the combo of the silly-funny sex romp which turns into a sad, tear-jerker type drama. that just holds no appeal for me personally, but i'm certainly not your average movie-goer. maybe it will be more well-recieved than i think. however, this is another one of those movies he's chosen that make me go - WHY? i wonder if maybe he didn't have a lot of other things to pick from? or maybe getting seen making out with a woman on the big screen was his number one goal. possibly that will stick in peoples minds and blot out the image of him getting boofoo'd by ennis in the tent. s.
Why is Jake Gyllenhaal Covering His Mouth in the "Love and Other Drugs" Poster?
Answer: He just remembered he left the iron on at his house.

WTF is wrong with America?
Interesting indeed and I have no idea what to think about the poster except that it is very misleading if I'm right about LAOD synopsis.
The poster itself has got people talking, so the producers would count that as a plus. I understand what you're saying about misleading, but I think this is the angle they're going to promote and, besides, they're naked and in bed and according to some of what I've read, that accounts for a lot of Jake and Anne's screen time.
Remember the semi-long beard that Jake had during the promotion of Rendition? Reeke was unveiled soon thereafter. Well, maybe he's growing another long beard for his next promotional stunt.
What happened to this guy?
Well, maybe he's growing another long beard for his next promotional stunt.
No PoP, no pressure.
however, this is another one of those movies he's chosen that make me go - WHY?
I wonder why Jake chose LAOD, too. I hope it has nothing to do with having lots of straight sex onscreen with the actress who played his wife/beard in BBM. For Jake's sake though, I hope it's a good movie.
IA, 3:42 PM.
According to the comments at the awardsdaily link, LAOD has a "feel-good, traditional Hollywood ending" - so I guess that scene in the trailer with Jake chasing the bus ends with him hopping on and declaring his love which leads to applause and smiles from all the passengers :)
He just remembered he left the iron on at his house.
LOL
however, this is another one of those movies he's chosen that make me go - WHY?
Because Jake wanted to do a comedy, something light for a change, and this was the best offer?
LAOD spoilers, be warned:
An ONTD reader who saw the movie said that the movie has a happy ending, they get together. She didn't like the movie ending this way either.
It was the ONTD post where the LAOD poster was posted.
End of LAOD spoilers! :)
...
End of LAOD spoilers! :)
Because Jake wanted to do a comedy, something light for a change, and this was the best offer?
But it's not simply a comedy, is it? Supposed to be lots of drama regarding her illness and also stuff about prescription drugs, health care - doesn't sound "light" to me.
doesn't sound "light" to me
Check out the poster :)
doesn't sound "light" to me
Check out the poster :)
Yeah, I saw the poster :) In fact, I posted the article about why Jake is covering his mouth, lol. I get what the poster is showing, but that doesn't mean the actual movie doesn't have a lot of drama, from everything I've read, it does.
And a lot of comedy!
LAOD the book may have had drama, love and other things going on, but sounds like the movie version has been turned into another HW romcom. The movie may be good, but based on the already promo that's been going on about how much time the leads spend naked and the poster, it's pretty obvious the movie will be promoted as a straight romcom. I think Jake could be good in a light hearted romantic comedy, I just hope that he doesn't just stick to making romcoms and branches out.
Jake could be good in a light hearted romantic comedy, but I hate romantic comedies and would love to see him doing a good comedy.
Or even better - a buddy movie with a bit of comedy :)
Emmy-winner Jim Parsons plays asexual (non-sexual?) nerd Sheldon on CBS's The Big Bang Theory, but in real life he's … a newly outed homosexual. Thanks, National Enquirer!
The tabloid rag breaks the not-so-secret news of Parsons' sexuality by saying he proposed to partner Todd Spiewak after the big night — and that they're heading to Massachusetts for a Christmas wedding. If you listened closely, Spiewak's name was among the many Parsons thanked during his acceptance speech, right after his mama. And it's not like their relationship is a secret: If it's on WhosDatedWho.com, it's public, yo.
It's also public when Neil Patrick Harris — defacto president of Hollywood's gay mafia — has your back.

^^^ Comments:
He (Jim Parsons) hasn't really acknowledged it publicly, but he's been photographed with the other guy on multiple occasions, and he's brought him to other events in the past.
---
He's been photographed next to him at multiple awards shows, in public, at parties, and even on a trip to Rome with the rest of the BBT cast. There's even evidence of them make a joint donation to a charity. He thanked him in his acceptance speech. He's also in Jim's family portrait. I believe it's safe to say they are together, now as to whether they're actually engaged that's another matter entirely.
If you listened closely, Spiewak's name was among the many Parsons thanked during his acceptance speech, right after his mama.
Awwwwww :)
Awwwww, that's great! Much happiness to them. :)
right after his mama.
Damn right! I come first before everybody!

Jake said he wanted to work with Gosling - I bet they'd be great together in a buddy movie :)
OK. You asked the question. [pause] I spend a fair amount of time alone, especially when I travel maybe to something like this or for work or whatever, but I’m in hotels a lot for a lot of my life. And I don’t mind it because I have a lot of stuff to do on my own. I have a lot of reading to do for school or whatever. [pause, laughs] You asked! So, when I’m alone, I do masturbate a lot. I don’t know why. It’s like you have those days where it’s just like, I have a ton of writing to do, or a ton of reading to do, and you’re just like, OK, I’m going to be on the couch all day or in bed all day just doing that… I tend to have a four- or five-time day.

Stork Prevents Him From Flying The Coop
BlindGossip " This couple is expecting. No secret there. What is a secret, however, is what was happening behind closed doors before the baby was announced.
Things had been rocky in this couples marriage for the past few years. The more she pushed her agenda on him, the more unhappy he became. After a particularly rough patch, Husband decided that he was going to do three things: get out of the marriage; tell the truth about what had been going on for the past few years; and come out of the closet.
Wife was desperate to keep any of those three things from happening. She decided to do something quite devious and drastic. The couple had stored up some fertilized eggs earlier in their marriage. (You didnt think they conceived naturally, did you?) So she went behind his back and had some of the remaining fertilized eggs implanted, hoping that one would take. It did.
To say that the husband was shocked and absolutely furious with her for doing this behind his back would be an understatement. He does not want this baby. His plan right now is that, if she loses the baby, he will wait a couple of months and then bolt so he doesnt look like the bad guy. However, if the baby is born, he knows that his primary role will be that of playing the proud and happy father. After all, he is an actor. So until the baby issue is resolved back in the closet he goes.

^^^ DL comment:
The Enquirer article is out today. I read it in the grocery line. It says the book will reveal other celebs who are gay, but the others besides Travolta are not married.
I thought it was weird how John and his wife announced a pregnancy so fast after the son died.
Duncan Jones does obviously not know when his film will be released!
"# @ManMadeMoon Hey Duncan, Are the reports true? Is "Source Code" set to hit theaters in the U.S. on April 15th, 2011?
vor ungefähr 13 Stunden via web"
"# @Box_Office_Spy I honestly dont know. Do you know where that news comes from?
vor ungefähr 13 Stunden via TweetDeck"
Whats up here - he usually never talks about SC on his Twitter (unlike Moon) and he is clueless when the film will be out?
Happy Birthday Michelle!

they knew he likes it up the butt though right?

Yeah, they would be all "It's a shame he won't be passing on those beeeautiful blue eyes!"
It's ok, my current manager says it doesn't matter that Ricky Martin is gay, that's how pure her love for him is.

my aunt is borderline obsessed with this fool. worships the ground he walks on and all that. her and her friends were on his show and are in some of this promos. now all her fb status updates and blog posts are about him.

Dear Ted:
Why is homosexuality such a defining trait in people's minds? I get that some people believe homosexuality is wrong and therefore deprive themselves of potentially great human relationships. But what is up with people who say they can't believe a gay actor in a straight role? I mean, I know that Chris Meloni is not a detective in real life, but I have no problem believing he's Elliot Stabler when I see him on TV. (Shirtless shots are simply icing on the cake.) I'm a mom of a teenager, and my kid is very open-minded about same-sex marriage and relationships. Do you think the next generation will be more open to enjoying actors and actresses without worrying about their sexuality?
—A Hopeful Fan
Dear Ya Did Well:
Yes, absolutely, look at your own kid! Smart people, generally speaking, don't like the bigotry/hatred thing, either.
Dear Ted:
I absolutely adore Henry Cavill and was shocked to find out he was whom Stephenie Meyer had in mind originally to play Edward in Twilight. I can't imagine how different our gossip landscape would have been if he had gotten the part! Please tell me he's been a B.V.—he is just so freaking dreamy!
—Sarah
Dear Pattz vs. Cavill:
We'd be down one big-time Blind Vicer, that's for sure. But then again, if hunky Henry had been the one to don Ed's fangs and skyrocket into supervamp fame, then he might have nabbed Vice honors...as you all seem to hope for.
Dear Ted:
Is it common for B.V.s hiding their sexuality to have bromances or to be pals with a same-sex person in the public eye while getting it on in private? Or do they usually avoid their real partner's company in paparazzi territory?
—Nonbeliever
Dear Bromeo, Oh Bromeo:
Could go either way, babe. Depends how paranoid the closeted cutie is. Sometimes guys are comfortable flaunting their BF as their friend, others are so nervous they're not even willing to be seen together.

On the other hand, if you can get everyone here to kiss Jake's ass, then you won't have to go anywhere. Clever plan. I think it's working.
IKEA is no stranger to treating same-sex couples as equals in their advertising. They even ran a great commercial in the United States with the narrator telling a woman assembling a chest she could buy some new clothes, go out to a club and "meet a nice man. Or woman. I don't judge."
But this new campaign running in Germany and Austria is a whole new level.
Here's the setup: Hubert and Susi stumble through the door of an apartment tearing at their clothes. Hubert tosses Susi on the table as his pants fall around his ankles. And that's when they hear the door open.
The natural reveal would be Hubert's wife or Susi's husband entering the apartment. But when Hubert stuffs Susi into his big IKEA Florian cabinets, you realize the handsome bald man with the groceries is Hubert's husband, not Susi's. It's delightfully subversive, and easily one of the most memorable commercials in years.

"Sure, I’d tell you if I was. I guess the reason I wouldn’t is because I’d be worried that it would hurt my career. I suppose that’s the reason one wouldn’t do that, right? But no, that wouldn’t be something that would deter me. I’m going to do projects that I want to do. Everyone thinks I’m a stoner, and some people think I’m gay because I’ve played these gay roles. That’s what people think, but it’s not true. I don’t smoke pot. I’m not gay. But on another level, there’s something in me that is able to play roles like that in a way that’s convincing.”

It looks like a total different person.
I understand some celebrities need some help from the "brush" but Michelle looks younger than her age and she doesn't need any photoshop yet.
It's like they are using it just for the sake of using it.
Most magazines do at least a little photo shop to make the celebs look flawless.

Interesting that Michelle and Ryan got the Interview cover, not Jake and Anne. Interview tries to be a barometer of buzz, so M+R pairing must be seen as hot. But LAOD will do much better box office than Blue Valentine, so Jake and Anne will be laughing in the end.
OT - "Drive" just got juicier.
"Indie action thriller "Drive" is the follow-up to last year's excellent Tom Hardy starrer "Bronson" from director Nicolas Winding Refn. Recently it was confirmed that Carey Mulligan and "Breaking Bad" star Bryan Cranston were joining a cast that already features Ryan Gosling, Albert Brooks and Oscar Isaacs. Today there's word from Variety that another AMC talent has joined the cast: "Mad Men"'s lovely Christina Hendricks."
I like Ryan with Carey Mulligan, they're a good fit. Hendricks is a sexbomb. Wouldn't she make a subversive beard for someone.
But LAOD will do much better box office than Blue Valentine, so Jake and Anne will be laughing in the end."
Perhaps but judging by the buzz, it looks like Blue Valentine will do better Oscar wise than LAoD. Also, don't be so sure of the film being a HUGE commercial hit. "The King's Speech," which just got screened at the Telluride and Venice Film Festival, is sure to be a crowd please and is already the frontrunner for Best Picture. And it opens Thanksgiving just like LAoD. The King's Speech is getting tremendous Oscar buzz for stars Colin Firth (love him), Geoffrey Rush and Helena Bonham Carter.
Yes, the "Kings Speech" is getting great Oscar buzz.
But if a random filmgoer has to chose between a comedy where you get to see Anne H. and Jake G. naked and having a good time with some tears to shed and a drama about an english king most americans have probably never heard of...
Blue Valentine will also be big during the awards race but the film is apparently a very serious drama of a broken marriage - not exactly a crowd pleaser.
So I am hopeful that LAOD will be at least successful at the BO - Jake needs a Box Office hit badly.
That site is pathetic and vile, but what's more vile is the posters here created this site, right "Jackie"?

Laughing??? Please, there is no need for insulting Anne and Jake.
Love and Other Drugs starts Jake Gyllenhaal as a womanizing pharmaceutical sales rep who falls in love with a free spirited girl, played by Anne Hathaway - or at least that's what the trailer seems to indicate. Judging by the poster, the film is about a 30-year-old man who has just discovered that he has a penis.
IMP Awards has posted the first one-sheet for the film and it would be fine if not for the ridiculous "hand over mouth" gesture. Would it have been so bad just to have the two of them sitting in the bed covered by pillows? Why is he muting himself? Perhaps he simply can't wipe off the shit eating grin that comes with sitting in a bed next to a half-naked Anne Hathaway.

His boyfriend is going to be pissed off when he finds out Franco isn't gay. The old one too, the one I saw him making out with at a wrap party, he'll likely be confused. All the guys he hit on while he was shooting here, they might be confused as well.

just discovered that he has a penis.
LOL
So many want to know about Ryan Gosling being gay. I have always suspected that he and his cute bandmate Zach are more than just friends.
Even though we have seen Ryan looking cozy with a coterie of attractive women over the past few years including Michelle ( I love to f#ck my costars) Williams, nothing seems to last with them. However, Zach has been with him for over 5 years and they have been photographed together all over the place.
ONTD - Ryan Gosling's band reinvents the concert experience, remains awesome while doing so
6:24, I don't think Franco is gay either; bi yes, gay no.
The thing is...is Jake a crowd draw? He already proved in North American he's can't really headline an action adventure film (he was a miscast joke in Prince of Persia). I think LAoD will do okay at the box office but there are A LOT of really good movies coming out around that time. There is no way he'll get an Oscar nod.
Honestly, I don't really care about box office (just look at "The Expendables," which did well but was a dopey action film with has been action stars). I care about the quality of the film, which is why I'm looking forward to Blue Valentine, The King's Speech, Black Swan (!!!! And I normally hate Natalie Portman), The Conspirator (will probably get a distributor after Toronto screening), Nowhere Boy (well I love The Beatles), Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps (loved the first film), etc.
Not sure I want to see James Franco hack his arm off in 127 Hours or see those doomed young people in Never Let Me Go (even though I think Carey Mulligan is one of the most promising young actresses of her generation).
Either? secretagentman claims he KNOWS Franco is gay.

Huh? Sex/dating partners come and go; friends stick with you.
I don't care what anyone is saying, Ryan Gosling just doesn't seem like a person who could be a womanizer.
the ridiculous "hand over mouth" gesture. Would it have been so bad just to have the two of them sitting in the bed covered by pillows? Why is he muting himself? Perhaps he simply can't wipe off the shit eating grin that comes with sitting in a bed next to a half-naked Anne Hathaway.
Or maybe he's trying not to throw up?!
Bad fan! lol
I don't care what anyone is saying, Ryan Gosling just doesn't seem like a person who could be a womanizer.
I don't think he's a playboy, but I think he can get every lady he wants. And I'd bet all my cash he bedded Ms. Williams too. Even if they are not dating, I think they did it.
But LAOD will do much better box office than Blue Valentine, so Jake and Anne will be laughing in the end."
Team Jake and Anne all the way. But we'll see how LAOD will turn out.
*yawn* nothing exciting in Bitch Back today.
My favourite movie couples:
Jack and Ennis
Baby and Johnny
I'm curious how I'll like "Jamie" and "Maggie".
And I'd bet all my cash he bedded Ms. Williams too. Even if they are not dating, I think they did it.
Really no need to insult people like Ryan G and Michelle.
more Jack and Ennis
Since when is having sex an "insult"...:-)
People here are saying Jake has sex with Austin/Cavill/unknown partners all the time..is that an insult too?
They both have no partner, so what.
Although I would also like to know on which facts "I think they did it" is based.
Really no need to insult people like Ryan G and Michelle.
Huh? As if co-stars never fuck on set. On the contrary, I think it happens quite often. Often what happens on set, stays on set. ;)
I'm curious how I'll like "Jamie" and "Maggie".
"Maggie" makes me cringe. Looks like they changed a lot of things from the book, they could have choose some other name.
I hope I and the majority of people will like LAOD:
Maggie and Jamie
Jake has such a nice profile, doesn't he?
As if co-stars never fuck on set.
Please. People don't fuck just because they can. Do you fuck your colleagues just because there is opportunity?
Jake and Anne are far more attractive than Ryan and Michelle IMO. I hope they will get a cover story in a good magazine too.
Please. People don't fuck just because they can. Do you fuck your colleagues just because there is opportunity?
No. First, my colleagues aren't as hot as Jake, Heath, Ryan, Leo etc. Second, I'm shy and alos not into sleeping around. I'm all for monogamy. But Hollywood stars are more promicuous than the average Joe and Jane. They often have to make out on screen and often that intimacy becomes real. You can't compare their work environment with that of average Joe and Jane.
Yum, Heath tastes goood!!!
You can't presume Hollywood co-stars are having sex just because they work together.
Although I would also like to know on which facts "I think they did it" is based.
Interactions in videos. Bodylanguage in vids, pics. Rumors don't start from nothing. Or someone planted rumors on purpose, but why would someone do that?
There are no rumors, just tabloid fiction.
For instance, you can see Jake and Anne have chemistry as friends. I see no ST or awkward behaviour when they are around each other (during BBM promo). Of course it could have something to do with the possibility that Jakey is gay as a goose. :D
^^I saw a bit of ST and some awkward behaviour between Jake and Heath though. :D
Jake and Anne are far more attractive than Ryan and Michelle IMO."
I don't agree at all. But then that's my opinion. You should check out the inside pictorial of W. Ryan is GORGEOUS and Michelle has never looked as stunning (Anne isn't as beautiful--not conventionally so--imho).
Really no need to insult people like Ryan G and Michelle."
The trolls feel a need to insult them to prop up Jake and Anne, because they think Ryan G and Michelle are threats. So stupid. Two very different movies.
And if Ryan G slept with Michelle, then I envy Michelle because Ryan is HOT!!
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

They are no threats at all. Please.

With all due respect, there is no way to make Ryan's face look gorgeous or beautiful. He looks good, he seems nice, but only Lainey would put him on Hollywood hunks list.
Hunk status isn't only the physical - there's a quality that shines from within that either makes someone attractive, or not. Sex appeal, mojo, intelligence, creativity, humor, etc. Sometimes that quality (or lack of it) can make a really physically attractive guy unappealing. I think Ryan looks great on that cover with Michelle.
Hunk status isn't only the physical
You can't be a hunk without physical beauty / appeal.
Best chemistry ever.

the other way aroudn
Would have been amazing to see them do anther film together in 5-10 years or so. Oh well.
True, but it's not the only thing.

Gah, they were fantastic together. I would have loved to see Heath in another film also. There was an Australian film called Dirt Music I think it's called that he was supposed to be in that sounded wonderful, and also the Terrence Malik film Tree of Life. *that sound you hear is my heart breaking a little bit still*
Gah, they were fantastic together.
Totally. The way they looked at each other ...goosebumps. Sigh.
*that sound you hear is my heart breaking a little bit still*
:(
You can't be a hunk without physical beauty / appeal.
I'm not 9:11. But physical beauty/appeal is subjective. I don't get the point of all this "team" stuff and why it's necessary to compare people and debate who is more attractive. These aren't provable facts we're talking about and no one can be right or wrong.
Exactly. Everyone sees sexiness and attractiveness in their own way. Yay! :)
But physical beauty/appeal is subjective.
Up to a point. For example, maybe you don't like Zac Effron or Brad Pitt, but you can't deny they are very handsome / beautiful, their symmetry and good proportions are objective and measurable.
True, but you make them sound like Michaelangelo's David - you need real qualities too. I don't deny those two men are beautiful, but they don't make my heart skip a beat. Brad sometimes does, tho, like in Benjamin Button as a young man. ;)

I understand what you're saying. Yes, I think both of those men are "handsome." But that's not the same, to me, as being "a hunk" or as being sexually attractive. I think Jake is very handsome in a classical way and I think he has sex appeal. But here's how an ONTD commenter described him in the LAOD poster post:
His bulgy ping pong ball eyes and muppet mouth make it impossible for me to find him sexy.
That's not how I see him, but I wouldn't argue with that commenter about how they see him.
I wouldn't argue with someone's personal view either, but those qualities of Jake's are exactly what makes him unique and sexy to me. He's got a beautiful mouth and eyes.
Jake isn't a classic beauty.
With all due respect, there is no way to make Ryan's face look gorgeous or beautiful.
ITA. I think he's only considered hot or gorgeous because he's talented and famous. If he were a regular guy walking down the street I don't think he would turn many heads.
Jake isn't a classic beauty.
He's not but you can't deny that with all his "flaws" his face is gorgeous.
Jake isn't a classic beauty.
P.S. But the combination of good looks and personality makes him hotter than perfect looking models or actors.

Jake is dramatic looking, with dark hair, fair skin and light eyes. He's very striking looking.
What Would Seymour Plow-Me-More Do?
Heard the latest goss on John Travolta? Of course you have, because gay-sex-in-the-sauna allegations don't fall on deaf ears, even if they're printed by the National Enquirer, of all places. And geez, with details like those the NE is "exclusively dishing," you'd think they're trying to earn John a top spot in our Blind Vice Hall of Fame!
So, how would our own happy-ending humper, Seymour Plow-Me-More (you remember him, don't you) handle this whole mess?
See, Travolta has been the target of many tabloid rumors throughout the years, some true and some completely fabricated, but Sey knows how to cover his tracks so no dirt on him is ever taken too seriously.
How, you ask?
By never getting (overly) in it in the first place.
Sey's name would be unlikely to get plastered over the front page of tabloid trash because he's always mucho careful to keep his same-sex shenanigans under wraps, ya know, with secret doors and all.
The Hollywood "gay sauna subculture" ain't exactly the hardest scene to uncover, but the players know how to keep their wet ‘n' wild ways under wraps.
And were the press to catch wind?
Seymore keeps journalists in his pocket and a team of legal eagles at the ready to squash any blabbing source the second they pipe up about his penchant for public sex with strange men. And were SPMM to find himself in this particular predicament, he'd have his man lover of the moment twist a story that totally got Sey's toweled toosh out of trouble.
Plus, there's that icey wifey-poo that Seymour keeps at the ready for all his playing house needs and to occasionally speak up on his behalf. Sey would definitely have had his lady drop some tidbits about how happily married they are.
She is in on the act, after all.
Hell, John's got the upper hand on Seymour, way up! None of his scandalous goss in the past has been taken seriously by the majority of his fans. Why should they change their minds, now?

This pic is great because it's not posed still it has more intensity/chemistry than Jake and Anne & Ryan and Michelle combined (maybe because they're both guys?). Jake looks beautiful here, especially his clear blue eyes.

Couldn't agree more.
Wouldn't it be awkward if Jake and Anne had a sex scene during which Jake says "oh, Maggie" or something like that? ;)
I think it would be very awkward and weird.
Speak plainly: Do you think he had sex with his sister? Is this why Maggie takes only parts of sexually abused women, low self esteem women, prostitutes etc. ?
No. It wouldn't surprise me if he had sex with his brother.
No, it doesn't strike me as awkward or weird. There are approximately six billion people in the world, slightly more than half of whom are female, and any number of them could be named Maggie, apart from Jake's sister Maggie. Maggie and Jamie are characters in a film.
This pic is great because it's not posed still it has more intensity/chemistry
I think most candid pics tend to show true chemistry more than posed ones (when there is true chemistry, that is).
And Maggie is Jake's sister and there are approximately six thousand other female names.
BFD.
It is BFD when people make stupid mistakes like that.
It’s already Friday, motivation is probably a little low, and Ryan Gosling comes along and pretty much bombs your productivity. Sorry.
It’s his W Magazine cover with Michelle Williams in support of Blue Valentine which will screen in a few days at TIFF and for which he’s confirmed to attend. They look AMAZING, non? Really, really beautiful, stunning red lipstick, and I don’t even mind the wig.
But more than that, it’s the photo acting. This is good photo acting. He has to act like he’s obsessed with her in these photos, and sometimes, with lesser subjects, the results are embarrassing and gross. Ryan, as you can see, is not embarrassing and definitely not gross. He is however really convincing. Almost uncomfortably convincing. You want to leave them alone, let them have it, but you also want to watch at the same time. Hot. Like that clip from the movie. So authentic, even down to his, um, arousal there...but who’s looking?
Lamey
:)

Ha! ;)
Instead of sexy the leather jacket with no shirt on is a turn off for me.
I'm looking forward to Jake's promo pics for LAOD.
That first LAOD promo pic is great (Jake taking off his undies) :)

LOL. I wish it were real. ;)
Wow, R&M look great. The leather jacket is better without anything on under it. ;) I love the way Michelle looks too, her eyes are beautiful, earrings, and her red lips. The pale blonde hair looks good on her too, not harsh. Looking forward to the movie.
StandUp2Cancer Fundraising Event airs tonight, Jake won't be there.

I remember Secretagentman on Towleroad YEARS ago. He posted that Jake was indeed gay and it was well-known in the industry. He gave us some industry tidbits and the Jake is Straight troll that used to post everywhere went ballistic. He just shrugged her off. I really liked him.
Also today I read on a UK site that Jake is dating none other than beard-for-hire Rachel Bilson!
They're trying to keep it under wraps, natch natch, like you do, you know, by leaking it to the press.
What a joke. Does Jake deliberately hire known beards to make himself look even more like a complete tit!? Who's next - Kristen Stewart? Lady Gaga? Queen Latifah?
He never attends charity events. They always announce him, but somehow he never ends up attending.
Jake wasn't announced, he did PSA.
Who's next? Queen Latifah! Her girlfriend said she (the girlfriend) isn't gay so Queen might be interested in a merkin! :)
1:00, you're late to the game. That story is done and dusted.
I thought that I did see somewhere when the PSA came out that Jake was doing the show. I think that he probably would have done the show before the Chin signed on. Bet Jake would want to avoid all of the Reeke reunion BS and to avoid her totally.

How about your colleague's spouse? Some woman called in to a radio show this morning and said that her husband left her - for her boss! So she still works at the same place because she needs the job and it's hard to find another one, but talk about awkward.
Is boss she or he? :)
