Cynthia Nixon and familyOctober 4, 2010
This past weekend, the New Yorker held its annual festival, which -- as always -- includes a multitude of speakers and panels discussing a variety of topics. Top players in all professions were represented, including Stephen King, Malcolm Gladwell, Jake Gyllenhaal and Regina Spektor -- all chatting about themselves and their areas of expertise. Our favorite, though, would have to have been Cynthia Nixon on the panel discussion "Love and Obstacles: The Case for Gay Marriage."
Ms. Nixon, who is most known for her role has Miranda Hobbes in Sex and the City, and now is engaged to education activist Christine Marinoni, stole our hearts with her rather calm, well made argument. Not only does she make a good case, she makes an example of how to make said point.
“Gay people who want to marry have no desire to redefine marriage in any way. When women got the vote, they did not redefine voting. When African-Americans got the right to sit at a lunch counter alongside white people, they did not redefine eating out. They were simply invited to the table. And that is all we want to do. We have no desire to change marriage. We want to be entitled to not only the same privileges, but the same responsibilities as straight people.”

«Oldest ‹Older 1801 – 2000 of 3894 Newer› Newest»Never heard of him or the other "bad review". Why isn't that everytime Jake is linked to a girl, he pro gay fans want him fail at the box office.
What? Now the former critic for Variety is a "pro gay fan"? LOL!!!!!! Sounds like a UV wannabe, blaming anything that isn't outright adoration of Jake on those nasty JiG folks ;)
Jake and Anne's character make a sex tape and then Jake's brother in the film jerks off to it?
And I was wondering why they didn't change Anne's character name (Maggie). Silly me :)
I wonder how someone can follow a celeb 24/7 and then bask in his failures, just because you assume or wish he's something (that he maybe isn't) that he, in your opinion, stubbonly won't admit.
It's like organized fan bullying. And I think that's sad since he showed his support for the gay community, like Heath did (as well as Anne) by doing that film. Sometimes showing something is more convincing than preaching (verbally).
9.58 Babbler, please go back to UV's teat
9:58 AM - why do you insist on insulting everyone's intelligence and posting your made up bullshit? What is the point of doing that?
And I think that's sad since he showed his support for the gay community
Bearding and lying about his sexuality is not support, just the opposite.

ITA.
I was one of the ones who "reviewed" LAOD over at OMG. As I said over there, I really had high hopes for Jake in LAOD, and I think he is really good in it. But I think there are a lot of problems with the film, the mostly young preview audience I saw it with did not laugh much, and most of the comments I heard on the way out was the same as mine--the acting was good, but the movie is "meh".
I'm just being honest, not looking for LAOD and Jake to fail. Just sorry that the film wasn't better, because it really is a perfect role for him.
Destiny,
The sex tape thing (and the brother jerking off to it) sounds really vulgar and trashy to me...and I'm supposed to root for these two? I don't know--might wait for this when it comes out in DVD.
destiny, I read your review and I thought it sounded fair and reasonable. You didn't sound at all like you wanted Jake or the film to fail and you were complimentary towards Jake's acting. The film does sound a little over the top in all directions and not at all subtle, but I'll wait and see for myself. One brother jerking off to another brother's sex tape sounds creepy, I must admit.
And for all the trolls who insist that only people who "want Jake to fail" are not giving good reviews, there was a Jake fan at WDW I think it was, who didn't care for it either. Someone posted it a week or two ago. She thought the sex and nudity was gratuitous and the frat-boy humor (I guess that would include jerk-off brother) too much. She also said she rolled her eyes a few times at the heavy-handedness. It'll be interesting to read opinions once the movie is actually released.
Gratuitous nudity? So what? Sounds like an American prude who wrote this. In some European countries it happens that a man schlong is shown on a !!!tv show during day. But since many Americans are overweight or fat, they understandably have a problem with nudity and see it as somthing bad that will be revealed.
Or it's jealousy becaue AH has a banging body that every Jakey fan or non fangirl can only dream off.
I wonder how someone can follow a celeb 24/7 and then bask in his failures,
It's really wierd and don't make sense.
just because you assume or wish he's something (that he maybe isn't) that he, in your opinion, stubbonly won't admit.
It's like organized fan bullying. And I think that's sad
It is!
Just that, a form of bullying. Sad that they are not aware of it. The same people who preach acceptance, want respect and want for others to have a live and let live attitude towards them and their life, do Just the opposite to someone else that (They THINK) is just like them.
Sad and Pathetic.
And it's really just one or two crazed so-called fan pushing this. You can tell. Everytime posters talk about Jake in an "I don't know for sure but I think he's"......., the same posters are very quick to denounce any of it and start yelling, Jake is Gay I know it. Jake is bearding. This gay person has to keep the flame burning because he's mad for whatever reason and Jake coming out will only make this poster happy and his life better.
No, he does not know he is being a bully.
But I bet he's the first to post some news about someone who was bullied or some law against bullying.
It's called Ignorance in Motion.
The Destiny comes over with all of her infinite wisdom.
An in the closet (gay woman) who labels herself as BIsexual, then keeps up the complaints about Jake's life.
yeah, believe what you want, lol. It couldn't possibly be that someone has an honest opinion. It has to be jealousy or some other excuse. desinty was clear that she didn't have an issue with the nudity, but she still didn't think the movie worked. The issue wasn't whether someone was a "prude" or not (nice stereotyping, btw), but rather if it is only JiG people who don't like the movie. Clearly it isn't, but that will be the excuse, just like with PoP.
11:22 AM - someone's issue was too much nudity and I stated my opinion on it. Deal with it.
jfc, go away already. Your posts are Hypocrisy in Motion, lol. "How dare people think that Jake is gay - they don't know him personally!" But that sure doesn't stop you from forming opinions about Destiny or her life. People can never see their own hypocrisy, though :) Babblers are famous for it.
^^^ like clockwork. Rushes to put out the fires. God forbid Jake be anything other than GAY
I don't need to deal with anything, 11:27. I don't have an opinion yet because I haven't seen the movie. Sounds like you haven't seen it either, so you don't know whether the nudity is gratuitous or not - and thinking its gratuitous has nothing to do with being a prude. Gratuitous simply means the poster thought the nudity was just thrown in there to get people talking and create buzz. The reviewer's issue weren't only about nudity either.
The only fire around here is your obsession to preach and lecture. This is a JiG blog, Sherlock. Apparently you haven't figured that out yet.
I can't believe posters here would have problems with nudity. On WFT? The same fans who talked endlessly about what Jake and Austin may have done sexually.
The same people who write and read Slash. Two men having sex, and writen by (oh my gosh) WOMEN?
What a bunch of in the closet Prudes, and hypocrites.
It's the poster's opinion that the nudity was gratuitous, true Todd McCarthy didn't like it, but HR, Variety or Playlist did. It's obviously a matter of opinion. Most who saw pre screeinging twittered they like it. We'll see if the reviews will turn out mostly positive or negative.
No, he does not know he is being a bully.
Your homophobic rants are silly. It is OK to be gay. Too bad you will never get that.
The only fire around here is your obsession to preach and lecture. This is a JiG blog, Sherlock. Apparently you haven't figured that out yet.
ah I gave you another word to use
Sherlock? Grow up, or am I talking to a 15yr old. OMG
It's a ToothyTile blog. Get it.
What part of that says Jake is Gay blog?
This gay person has to keep the flame burning because he's mad for whatever reason and Jake coming out will only make this poster happy and his life better.
Nonsense. I'm straight and I'm sure Jake is gay. You don't need to be gay to recognize PR lies and PR relationships.
This is a JiG blog, Sherlock.
Not only that, it's also a "we hate the homophobic, bearding little fucker and we'll make sure to post our opinion all over internet....until he comes to his senses and out".
Your homophobic rants are silly. It is OK to be gay. Too bad you will never get that.
You are really stupid and it's quite obvious you can't read or have problems with reading comprehension. That's Clear.
Not once have I said that it was wrong to be gay in any of my comments.
Your ignorance has turned my comments into it's not ok to be gay, because you are stupid and don't know that relentlessly calling someone gay and bearding just because you want or need for them to be gay without real proof is the problem and the BULLYING. But I don't expect you to understand this (very simple) and almost elementary piece of information either.
The straight fangirls onto slash are prudish when it comes to het sex. The cringe when a het couple ingages in anything but the missionarry position or if a girl wears a dress that is too short or dates more than one boy, then she's a slut.
In their minds, all gay men are promiscuious, period.
Not once have I said that it was wrong to be gay in any of my comments.
You are IMPLYING that being gay is bad ALL THE TIME - you are the one having problem ONLY with fans who believe that Jake is gay. Your homophobia is transparent.
Not only that, it's also a "we hate the homophobic, bearding little fucker and we'll make sure to post our opinion all over internet....until he comes to his senses and out
^^ THIS EQUALS BULLY!
ohhh Alright, there he is. Right on time.
the self righteous hate mongerer and BULLYER.
That's right,
Show your TRUE COLORS.

11:53 AM - you are an idiot. No one has any proof that Jake is straight or bisexual, but you don't have a problem with people who believe Jake is straight or bisexual. You only ask for proof that Jake is gay because calling Jake gay is a libel in your homophobic mind.
Jake is gay and poor 11:53 AM knows that :)
11:59, what about Jake stating he is straight? You think he lied? He had a few public relationships with women. The only person who says that Jake is gay is Ted in a BV. If Jake said he's gay or bi, it wouldn't change a thing for me re. being a fan.
I had no problem with the sex and nudity in LAOD. I though Jake and Anne were both very beautiful in the movie, and it didn't feel gratuitous to me. What was gratuitous to me was the brother character, who I didn't believe for a minute could be related to Jake, and all of the sophmoric humor and worse involving his character. Plus the sappiness late in the movie that a lot of the reviewers mention.
It felt like I was watching two different movies that collided with each other.
August 16, 2009
Reuters reports that US Circuit Judge Denny Chin has ruled that Howard Stern can sue Anna Nicole Smith biographer Rita Crosby for defamation, but not over claims that Stern was gay or engaged in gay sex acts because homosexuality is no longer viewed as "contemptible."

If Ted pulled TT out of his ass, which resulted in creating blogs which primary goal is to expose him as a liar, it's a serious issue. These people make sure to diss him and call him a liar on every popular celebrity blog, just to make sure to spread their believes. It's not that being gay is not ok, it's not ok spreading opinions as facts, accusing somone of being a bearding homophobe without proof. I think Jake is in a dilemma, if he reacts to Ted, he'd give him more attention, if he sues, he'll be called a homophobe. I'm curious how this all will turn out, because if Ted C. is lying, one day Jake'll have enough of being called a liar and faker and will do something about it. I remember reading that there was a time where Ted's TT stories indeed bothered Jake.
An in the closet (gay woman) who labels herself as BIsexual, then keeps up the complaints about Jake's life.
I am not closeted, everyone in my life knows I have a girlfriend. And actually most people would probably label me gay, because I don't make a habit of talking about my sexuality with my co-workers or people I only know casually. They know I have a girlfriend, and so I am sure the assumption is that I am gay. I'm sure some of them would be surprised to know I consider myself bisexual, so you've got it backwards.
Not surprised at that since you seem to have zero understanding of human sexuality.
11:59, what about Jake stating he is straight? You think he lied?
I'm sure he lied. Do you remember the way he said it?
"I quote something he said about homosexuality: 'I don't think I'd be afraid of it if it happened.' What on earth did he mean by that? 'Nothing like that has ever happened to me. I live in a different world. What I was trying to say was why leave out possibilities in my life? It wasn't meant to be provocative.'
So let's get it on the record: is he saying he is open to persuasion? 'No, I am not open to persuasion myself, but the idea of homosexuality is acceptable to me. I grew up in a city where half the people I know are gay. Both of my godfathers are gay.'
OK, having established that he is not bisexual, was he being quite calculating when he allowed people to think he was? 'It was meant as a way of saying it was important for Heath [Ledger, his co-star in Brokeback Mountain] and I to have the movie exist as the movie, but also to have people know it was two straight actors playing those parts.'"
He had a few public relationships with women.
So? Majority of closeted male celebrities have public "relationships" with women.
but you don't have a problem with people who believe Jake is straight or bisexual. You only ask for proof that Jake is gay because calling Jake gay is a libel in your homophobic mind.
I have NOT said that Jake (is) straight or bi in any of my comments! I have said that I believe him to be bi, Believe him to be, not say that he (IS).
What you and the other jerk does is say that he (IS) gay and he (IS) bearding. Then you and he continue without fail to push this idea as the TRuTh, then get upset when others think other. Then called them homophobes because in your mind Jake cannot be anything but (gay and bearding) = the problem. Then you accuse others of hating gays or think that being gay is a problem or bad because they have a different opinion than you about Jake's Sex life = the problem.
Read will you.
11:42AM, you've really gone over the edge, lol. I don't know what brought your mania on, but you really should do something about it before you have a stroke or something. For some reason you see yourself as Jake's knight in shining armor ready to defend him against all the mean JiG people. Maybe you should take a cue from your idol and just live your life and not waste your time coming here :)
I'm curious how this all will turn out, because if Ted C. is lying, one day Jake'll have enough of being called a liar and faker and will do something about it.
Jake is a liar and a faker, he faked a relationship with Reese Witherspoon for 2,5 years, so he will be quiet and continue with lying and faking.
12:19 PM, since you continue to play stupid I will repeat one more time something you already know.
'I know Jake is gay' = 'I'm 100% sure Jake is gay', not 'I have concrete proof that Jake is gay'.
Viagra romantic drama goes a little limp
LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Edward Zwick's "Love and Other Drugs," an offbeat romantic drama set in the world of pharmaceutical sales, plays at times like a patient who has gone off his meds.
The energy is far too great -- manic even -- at the beginning but calms down for a while to focus on the highly competitive but not always ethical arena of drug sales, then gets distracted by unusually bold sex scenes for a studio picture only to wander off into the cultural phenomenon of Viagra before the movie decides it's a romance after all and so concludes in a highly conventional final embrace. The movie's got ADD like you wouldn't believe.
At its core, "Love and Other Drugs" has solid romance credentials and two very photogenic leads in the (at times) scarcely clothed Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway. The 20th Century Fox film should gain box-office traction when it opens Thanksgiving weekend with young adults as its primary draw.
Perhaps the problem stems from the film's development process. Writer-producer Charles Randolph pitched a project based on the nonfiction book "Hard Sell: The Evolution of a Viagra Salesman" by Jamie Reidy about a hot-shot Pfizer salesman navigating the pharmaceutical industry of the late '90s. Eventually, Zwick and his longtime writing/producing partner Marshall Herskovitz came aboard to create an interesting case of sexual combustion between a healthy yet emotionally constricted man and a woman with medical challenges.
The world of the film could just as easily have been Wall Street, a fashion magazine or life on the road firing people, to evoke a few recent movies. Yet the pharmaceutical business proves too new to films for Zwick, a filmmaker who is really interested in how things tick, to resist a deep plunge into unfamiliar territory. So the life of a drug salesman nearly swamps his love story. But it doesn't, at least not entirely.
Gyllenhaal's Jamie Randall is a born salesmen and seducer, first seen charming patrons, preferably women, at an electronics store in 1996. However, his inability to keep his pants zipped loses this job for him. Coming to his rescue is his rich geek brother, played by Josh Gad, in a role that runs throughout the movie but is never necessary other than delivering a few gross-out moments in a misguided attempt to attract male teens.
The younger brother guides him into a training program and eventually a job at Pfizer, which relocates him to an Eastern city as a drug rep working under a veteran salesman (Oliver Platt). (The movie was shot in Pittsburgh.) In his charm-and-guile siege of Dr. Knight's (Hank Azaria) medical office, Jamie encounters a patient, Maggie Murdock (Hathaway), with whom he has an emotional kinship: both use casual sex as an escape from the utter shallowness and insincerity of their lives. Its their drug of choice.
Maggie has to take other drugs, too, as she has early-onset Parkinson's disease. The movie all but ignores this for a while, letting the two get to enjoy better and better recreational sex while refusing to acknowledge they care for one another in the slightest.
When they do fall into the most reluctant love you can imagine -- the best humor in the film comes in the couple's real fear and loathing of this fact -- then Parkinson's moves front and center as a major player in the drama. Zwick's movie never descends into a disease-of-the-week melodrama, but Jamie's search for a cure is more about his fear of the future for himself, not his lover.
(continued)
Jake is a liar and a faker, he faked a relationship with Reese Witherspoon for 2,5 years, so he will be quiet and continue with lying and faking.
Your mind is set, isn't it? There is no possibility that Jake had an experimenting phase or that he's bi or even straight. You are convinced he's gay and lying, you follow him and posts about him and spread your opinion as fact and call him homophobe and liar. The problem is, you are not the only one. You are part of a small, but vocal group of people whose only goal in life seems to be to expose Jake Gyllenhaal's "true colors".
I'm not sure Casablanca realizes what he started and is, so to speak, the godfather of.
Then you accuse others of hating gays or think that being gay is a problem or bad because they have a different opinion than you about Jake's Sex life = the problem.
Still playing stupid.
You are a homophone because YOU have a problem ONLY with people who believe or are certain that Jake is gay.
So finally the film finds its story. And then things become shockingly conventional, dipping into a break-up and the heartache you've seen a million times over.
Gyllenhaal and Hathaway are terrific as two sarcastic, sexually hungry young people eager to hop into bed, or go up against the nearest wall for a knee-trembler. Sappy romance doesn't suit either of their characters so something goes a little limp when they acknowledge their love. Where's a Viagra salesman when you need him?
The artist's loft, coffee house, restaurants, late night cafes, medical offices and a sleek suburban home to a "pajama party" where the film takes place are all eye grabbers and Steven Fierberg's cinematography does justice to these visually arresting locations. Much is going on in nearly every scene. Even a running gag about a homeless man who digs drug samples out of a dumpster where Jamie throws his rival's products is damn funny.
In the end, this is a smart movie that could have been smarter. The script feels like it was a draft or so away from total clarity and focus. But the energy of the cast and a dive into an unfamiliar world make the movie rather addictive.
Your mind is set, isn't it? There is no possibility that Jake had an experimenting phase or that he's bi or even straight.
Your mind is set, isn't it? There is no possibility that Jake bearded for years because he's gay?

Damn, almost there! :)
I'm sure some of them would be surprised to know I consider myself bisexual, so you've got it backwards.
oh, You can be involved with a same sex situation and get to call or should I say "label" yourself other than gay as in Bisexual, but God forbid Jake think of doing any such thing. It is quite obvious that JG had girlfriends and maybe a man partner, Maybe, I don't know for sure. But I does not work for him as it does for you? Why?
What I see you as in denial of your sexuality. The same thing that you accuse Jake of. And, a double Standard.
Not surprised at that since you seem to have zero understanding of human sexuality.
I have a very clear and open mind to human sexuality than most. That's why I know it's wrong for you to annoit your sexuality with grey areas and consider yourself very fluid in it, Your label that is, then state that someone elses situation is clear cut and either or such as Jake only being Gay and bearding and no possibilty of any other sexual labels in your eyes. You have railed about this for years now.
You are promoting a double standard. And the double standard is, you get to label yourself as YOU wish. Not as Society sees you. But you won't or can't allow it for others, or should i say, Jake.
Your mind is set, isn't it? There is no possibility that Jake bearded for years because he's gay?
Everything is possible, but I don't go around selling my opinion as fact and bully him.
YOU have a problem ONLY with people who believe or are certain that Jake is gay.
(I) have a problem with posters who say they (know) Jake is gay and (bearding) for certain and (DON'T) Know for certain.
It's simple really.
(I) have a problem with posters who say they (know) Jake is gay and (bearding) for certain and (DON'T) Know for certain.
Some people are sure about their opinions, deal with that. And don't think for a second that you're fooling anyone - it is clear you are homophobic and two-faced.
I'm not sure Casablanca realizes what he started and is, so to speak, the godfather of.
He's probably proud of it.
Why shouldn't Ted be proud?
'I know Jake is gay' = 'I'm 100% sure Jake is gay', not 'I have concrete proof that Jake is gay'.
^^^ Will he and Austin get Married?
12:48 PM - sorry, moronic posts aren't helping your "points" and "arguments". lol
because if Ted C. is lying, one day Jake'll have enough of being called a liar and faker and will do something about it.
What do you think he's going to do? Admit to being "Toothy?"
That's why I know it's wrong for you to annoit your sexuality with grey areas and consider yourself very fluid in it, Your label that is, then state that someone elses situation is clear cut and either or such as Jake only being Gay and bearding and no possibilty of any other sexual labels in your eyes.

Hey, You forgot to Add this one:

Hey Babblers you better stop posting here and run over to Ross, they're having a sale on wedding hats.
^^^
Ross? I'm a Nordstrom shopper, OK.
Nordstrom is having a wedding hat special too, just for Babblers and JIS posters! Run!
Everything is possible, but I don't go around selling my opinion as fact and bully him.
Sure. No one should post his/her opinion if he/she thinks Jake is gay. Because that is bulling. Others can post and discuss Jake, being straight is good.
God forbid the JIS/Babblers should post on their own blogs.

^^ Oh shoot, I thought it was for Jake and Austin's Wedding. You know, the JIG crowd. Crap
Sure. No one should post his/her opinion if he/she thinks Jake is gay. Because that is bulling.
Read Please.
Stating you (KNOW) he's gay and bearding when you (DON'T), then getting mad about it and calling him homophobic because he has not come out of the closet,
(IS) BULLYING.
LOL having opinions about a public figure and posting on an entertainment blog is now bullying.
2:09 PM, WTF is wrong with you?
How many times you need to be told that everyone is entitled to an opinion including people who are sure about Jake being gay? Who are you to decide which opinions are good and which aren't?
You want to know what blog bullying is? It's posting endless, tiresome JIS rants on a JIG site.
oh NO, Not the ole Public Figure Ploy again. Being a Public figure does not give any person the Ultimate right to bully the public figure just because they can.
The bully then becomes an Asshole and maybe a bigot and other things.
LOL 2:21 you're the asshole bigot bully. Yes, you. Go back to whatever hole you came out of.
2:19 that does not apply to me because I am posting the possibility JIS, JIB, JIG. Of course this goes right over your head because all you know and want to post is JIG on a WFT blog.
We know that Jake is gay.
2:23 you are the sad Bully and I know you will continue to scream from the top of lungs that JIG and bearding to whoever will listen everywhere because this helps you and your agenda. Continue.
Jake is straight. Just ask the Babblers.
I am posting the possibility JIS, JIB, JIG.
No, you trash people who believe Jake is gay. Too bad Jake is gay and you can't do anything about it :)))))
2:27 PM - you are a crazy homophobe, shame on you.
((Not only that, it's also a "we hate the homophobic, bearding little fucker and we'll make sure to post our opinion all over internet....until he comes to his senses and out))

A really Sad Being.
2:23 you are the sad Bully and I know you will continue to scream from the top of lungs that JIG and bearding to whoever will listen everywhere because this helps you and your agenda
My agenda?!! LOL I'm not the one posting on a JIG site that JIS/JIB.
Jake is straight. Just ask the Babblers.
LOL. Before I clicked I thought it was going to be the screencap of FL's "Jake is Straight" blog.

This is his ^^ Attitude.
A Bully
GyllenBabble. Let's talk about Jake! Timely, topical and totally unverified information about Jake Gyllenhaal
And yet the Babblers have the gall to come here and preach that he's straight and Reeke was real.
2:41 PM - we can't out Jake, we don't have sex tapes and we don't have showmance contracts. But we will talk about Jake's showmances and his gayness as often as we like and wherever we feel like it. As often as we like and wherever we feel like it. Capish?

2:41 what the hell are you talking about? That "quote" about hating the homophobic bearding, etc. was first posted at 11:42AM. It's a fabricated quote and not something anyone actually said. jesus, you can't even keep your own bullshit straight anymore you're so worked up.
((Not only that, it's also a "we hate the homophobic, bearding little fucker and we'll make sure to post our opinion all over internet....until he comes to his senses and out))
Something tells me your time would be better spent trying to find a ((boyfriend)) young man instead of trying to out someone you don't know and (think) is Gay and bearding because they are hurting your cause.
I wish you love though.
we can't out Jake, we don't have sex tapes
I do.
Slow day at the bankruptcy courts today?
The first good sign for the economy in months!
2:55 PM #2 hates gay Jake. What a fan!
I label Jake gay because I don't think he is bisexual.
Jake proved he is gay:
By Reeking--he looked like he could barely stand being near her, let alone touch her. Bisexual men would have no need to beard--although I guess you could argue that if he is in a relationship with Austin he would need to beard because he can't really date women if he's in a committed relationship.
By looking at men in a way he never ever looks at women--Austin, Heath, Paris Fountain Boy, and I kid you not, Hank Azaria in one scene in LAOD, sitting by the pool at an orgy. He gets all doe-eyed and gets a look I can't describe, but he had it in BBM with Heath. Now I think Jake had great chemistry with Anne, and they made a convincing couple, but he never looked at her like that. Jake can't help it, it just kind of oozes out of him when he is with men. If he was bisexual, we'd see that with women too.
The whole Swift debacle. And that is what it is. With pictures at Perez, a cover mention on US and an early story in People, this was set up, and it was set up as them dating/the start of a relationship. But once they were massacred all over the internet, they beat a hasty retreat. If he was bisexual and really dating her, do you really think it would have gone down this way?
A pattern of not publicly dating any women for 10-12 months between breakups.
Did I miss anything?
2:55, why do you keep responding to your own quote that you made up? I would think you'd have a better way to spend your own time :)
they were massacred
LOL and that's putting it mildly!
it just kind of oozes out of him when he is with men.

Re Jake's Sexuality:
All your opinion Destiny, all your opinion. Are YOU aware of this?
You have yours and others have theirs
It Does Not make it the Truth.
Thanks for your take on the movie Destiny, I can't wait to See it. I really like Hank A.
by the way, are you aware that some may label you Gay? Regardless of what Jake is, we don't know him.
It Does Not make it the Truth.
You just can't stop making up shit and playing stupid, can you?
Let's just ignore Bubba/Jack.
by the way, are you aware that some may label you Gay?
I'm sure Destiny would be devastated, that would be such an insult!!!!
2:55, why do you keep responding to your own quote that you made up? I would think you'd have a better way to spend your own time :)
You mean 2:55 # 2? It's not his/her quote.
All your opinion Destiny, all your opinion. Are YOU aware of this?

Of course she's aware it's her opinion. The difference is, she's posting her opinion appropriately, that JIG on a JIG site, which is more than can be said for you.
I'm fine with being called gay. In fact I often identify as gay for political reasons, and it's less complicated and easier than explaining myself. Like I said, everyone knows I have a girlfriend, so the default assumption is gay. And I consider myself to be part of the gay community.
But the people who really know me would never think of me as gay. For starters, they know about my interest in Jake, Austin, Bomer......
Jake gave Hank Azaria doe-eyed looks in LAOD? I'll have to see for myself before I believe it. Now if you said he gave them to Gabriel Macht (sp?) that would be more likely. He's more Jake's type. Coming from someone convinced that Jake and Austin are in a committed relationship with a BT or that Austin tweeted the BV link for Gosling's bulge I'm a little skeptical when it comes to your judgment. We'll see. :)
And yet the Babblers have the gall to come here and preach that he's straight and Reeke was real.
LOL. Babblers like to pretend Gyllenbabblers is not a gossip site - as long as "totally unverified information" is all about Jake being their perfect 100%heterosexual male it's not gossip :)

LOL!!

It was posted by me, in a mocking way. Sorry I didn't make it clear enough and caused bashing of 2:55 PM.
Jake needs a hobby, something other than bearding.

But the people who really know me would never think of me as gay. For starters, they know about my interest in Jake, Austin, Bomer......
An Interest? Plenty of people have interest in the opposite sex. Even Gay people have interest in the opposite sex.
If I were to believe Jake as Gay, I would also believe that he would have and interest in females occasionally.
But I think he's bi, just like you SAY, you are.. Maybe str8.? And I do believe his girlfriends were REAL. Maybe as in, Your interest in Men probably were REAL. Or your dealing with men, whenever it was, was real.
So in my book he's either bi which he may never speak on and keep a secrete, or straight as he has stated before, until he says other or real evidence appears that he's gay.
Yawn
I think Jake needs a new project to work on. There's nothing really lined up.
Jake needs a hobby, something other than bearding.
Or he's spending time with a potentially new gf. Depends how you look at it.
That said, I'm not a TS fan. First Reese, now TS. Oy.
LOL except maybe cocaine
Or he's spending time with a potentially new gf.
Potential new beard.

Oops, sorry, I missed that post. I knew no one would seriously post something like that, but naturally the troll jumped on it, lol.
Jake needs a hobby, something other than bearding.
Jake needs a man to sweep him off his feet so he wouldn't care what people think about his sexual orientation and just live his life.
Romantic love is missing from his life, that's obvious to me. When he finds it his career/image won't be the most important things for him.
Potential new beard.
Yep. What a lucky coincidence that Taylor has a new album and Jake has a new movie :)
People magazine: ""If she (TS) does have a serious relationship, it's probably going to be with someone who's not in the industry or someone who's not a household name," the source says. "With Jake, she probably figures, why not be seen together and keep everyone guessing."
Jake needs a man to sweep him off his feet
If only :)
Actually a little part of me is hoping he'll beard with Swifty. It'll be entertaining and we'll see how/if he's improved his expressions and body language, if he's running ahead of her and slamming the door in her face, how much chemistry he'll have with her male friends when they all go out in a group, what type shirts he'll wear (more lumberjack or something different?) if the toothpick will make its comeback appearance, baby bump watch, if Swifty will all of a sudden start bike riding and jogging, stuff like that. Jake's been boring lately. Maybe this will bring back the spark, at least for us!
Bearding with TS would be embarrassing.
Bearding with TS would be embarrassing..
IA. Worse than Reeke if that's possible.
Jake's been boring lately.
Jake's PR sucks, they don't know how to sell Jake.
Jesus and it's everything a big old conspiracy again. No single possibility that Jake really might want to go out with her and have some fun.
LOL 4:18. Yeah Jake wants to sex her up. LMAO
LOL :)
You know the troll is starting to grow on me, lol. I think they secretly love WFTers or else they would find their way to Babblers or IHJ or WDW or even the Lashers thread :)
Yeah Jake wants to sex her up.
LMAO. Nothing like MOM to get that sexual tension between them going!
I don't know which choice for beard is worse, the Chin or Squinty. Reese made Jake look like a wimp, Taylor makes him look like Merv the Perv. LOL
Her Mom approves of Jacob!!
In an egregious overstepping of advertising regulations, the United Kingdom's Advertising Standards Authority has barred this ad for Antonio Federici ice cream from appearing again, after it showed up in Look magazine telling readers, "We Believe in Salivation," and showing two priests about to kiss. This creative was actually supposed to appease the censors: It replaced an ad that read "Immaculately conceived" and featured a pregnant nun in a church with a tub of ice cream.
"Defending the ad, the company said it did not mock Catholicism but 'reflected the grave troubles they considered affected the Catholic Church'. Antonio Federici was a Catholic company, but would continue to produce advertising that challenged the Catholic Church while it believed it remained troubled, it added. Upholding six complaints about the ad, the ASA noted the ad used the text 'We Believe in Salivation' in reference to the taste of the product and to the image of the priests. The ASA said: 'We considered the portrayal of the two priests in a sexualised manner was likely to be interpreted as mocking the beliefs of Roman Catholics and was therefore likely to cause serious offence to some readers.' It ruled that the ad must not appear again and told Antonio Federici to ensure future ads were not likely to cause serious or widespread offence."
Advertising that causes serious offense is now completely off limits? Has anyone from this agency flipped through a British fashion magazine in the last five years? SKINNY PEOPLE OFFEND ME.
Queerty
I'm hungry!
BlindGossip – This former ’80s sitcom star was always very cute and popular and respectable. He married his actress sweetheart, and the couple are two of the straightest and most uber-conservative celebs and parents around. So it pains us to inform you that he’s actually a major closet case. One of his wife’s friends spotted him in a gay bar a few nights ago. The wife was so mad that she locked him out of the house and threatened divorce.
BlindGossip
I think Taylor is beautiful, and I hope that things work out for them, if only something casual. If more great! I don't know if this is for publicity or not, and there's a high probability that it is, but I'm keeping an open mind. Can we buy a nice chapeau for Austin's wedding too?
Why do some of us come here? It's like watching a train wreck, some of these ridiculous responses. You don't want to look but you're compelled to!
Sorry 5:36 PM, I don't think Jake will beard with Taylor.
"Relationships" with Joe Jonas and Taylor Lautner - is Taylor a lesbian? Or just doing favors for publicity?
Does John Mayer take it up the ass too? She dated him too!!
Dated John Mayer? For like 4 days?
John Mayer made out with Perez Hilton, I think he's no stranger to gay sex.
You do realize that many artists (singers, actors) are open to experimenting and are often bi curious or bi. These people are much more open-minded and ready to try out than average Joe and Jane.
Sexuality is not always black or white.
John Mayer is 33, not some teenager. No, I don't think that people are more open-minded just because they are celebrities. Yes, sexuality is black and white (straight or gay) for majority of people.
I can't believe she was involved with John Mayer for more than ten minutes. Jake seems nice for her, if true.
As for autobiographical songwriting, you gotta draw from somewhere, right?
It's a different circle. They may not be so open (like talking about it) about experimenting but they sure do it, because they are in contact with like-minded people and have more opportunities than the average person. Majority may be either straight or gay, but there are bi people or people who try out out there too.
because they are in contact with like-minded people and have more opportunities than the average person
You are talking about promiscuity, not bisexuality.
Jake seems nice for her, if true.
You are hoping that she could turn Jake straight?
You are talking about promiscuity, not bisexuality.
I think it's no secret that artists are more open-minded about sexuality and that there is more experimenting going on than within average folks. Maybe they are more promiscuous than the average person, but they sure are more open, or lets say courageous, to experimenting.
I'm not saying Jake was lusting after Hank ala Fountain Boy with his tongue practically on the ground, but there was just something in the emotions in his face that struck me. I'll be curious to hear if anyone else sees it, and maybe they can describe it better than me.
Jake hanging out with a woman while she works, now where have I heard of that before.
6:22 PM, please define experimenting. That sounds like there are 25 different sexes to experiment with so artists experiment with all of them and common people just have 2 to choose from.
I couldn't care less one way or the other whether Jake is straight or gay, or bi, or tri, or asexual. I'm not getting into a senseless argument about it with people who are insincere and just want to pick a fight, or take out their frustrations after a busy or boring day. It's not Halloween yet, we've got a couple more days, so no need to let the imps and ids run wild just yet.
I'll be curious to hear if anyone else sees it, and maybe they can describe it better than me.
Ooh ooh I think I can!!! It's called seeing what you want to see!
6:43 PM - not even a nice try! LOL @ you!
I'm not getting into a senseless argument about it with people who are insincere and just want to pick a fight, or take out their frustrations after a busy or boring day.
Ouch, ouch! You are projecting again :)
I couldn't care less one way or the other whether Jake is straight or gay, or bi, or tri, or asexual.
I see. That's why you visit this site and post.
I'm not getting into a senseless argument about it
You mean like you've been doing all day :)
Jake said... I'm hungry!
Welcome to my world.
LOL :)
Nothing like MOM to get that sexual tension between them going!
Maybe Taylor and her Mom are both into coked up horrible painfully unnatural sex. A mother-daughter tag team! They can take turns blowing and snorting tons of coke off of Toothy's little Toothy Tile until he's numb and then they can help each other get into "interesting" positions until he pretends to get off!
I'm not saying Jake was lusting after Hank ala Fountain Boy with his tongue practically on the ground, but there was just something in the emotions in his face that struck me.
Wait, are you saying Jake has feelings for Hank Azaria?

Jake said... I'm hungry!
Welcome to my world.
Atti, do you have the house in Cali all to yourself? Time to PARTY!!!
Hank Azaria
It was pointed out on OMG that the guy who tweeted about Jake, Taylor and her mom kept tweeting about how he hoped to see Jake there before even getting there, and that given he was in the audience, how could he know what was going on backstage? Then there is his general obsession with celebs and tweeting sightings.
Sounds less than credible.
So there is only one person who trolls here?
ITA, OMG is getting less and less credible all the time. They will come up with the most creative excuses.
No biggie but did anyone notice the similarity of these 2 comments on TT's BVs?
Coke BV: What's next? Meth with Morgan Mayhem? Pray not.
Fishy BV: Hmm. Wonder if Lindsay Lohan's little helper is what Tooth is relying on this time around
Lohan is suspected of being MM. Didn't she out herself when she called herself on her Twitter Lindsay Mayhem?! But anyway is Ted just taking advantage of the opportunity to slam Lohan and TT or is there a real connection between them that he's hinting at?
What do you mean by "real connection" between Jake and Lindsay?
No, I don't think that people are more open-minded just because they are celebrities. Yes, sexuality is black and white (straight or gay) for majority of people.
The poster is talking about Artsy people. All of the people mentioned are artist. Most are more open minded about sexuality.
There is no argument.
Most are more open minded about sexuality.
Really? Why is so many of them in the closet?
The poster is talking about Artsy people. All of the people mentioned are artist. Most are more open minded about sexuality.
They probably have more sexual partners or aren't as homophobic as "average" people, but so what?
They are straight, gay, bisexual or asexual like the rest of the humanity.
Most are more open minded about sexuality.
Really? Why is so many of them in the closer?
******
Maybe because they are bisexual or bi curious leaning more towards hetro with a wife or husband / girlfriend or boyfriend and have no interest in talking about it publicly. Some people including Artist / Artsy people don't want everyone knowing their personal and private business. Some don't care. One example is Lindsey Lohand as one who seems to not care. Others who do, well we don't know about yet.
P.S. Just one important "difference": % of gay people is higher within Artsy people compared to general population.
Maybe because they are bisexual or bi curious leaning more towards hetro
Studies show that more people declare as gay than bisexual.
Some people including Artist / Artsy people don't want everyone knowing their personal and private business.
I wouldn't call them "open minded about sexuality" in that case.
Maybe because they are bisexual or bi curious leaning more towards hetro with a wife or husband / girlfriend or boyfriend and have no interest in talking about it publicly.
So they stay in the closet because it is better to be "straight".
10:04 I'm not debating that, but I would probably say, more gay people are artist and In the Arts (Film, Music, Dance, Visual) etc.
rather than there are more gays in the Arts, as in Most artist are gay. If that's what you are saying.
You may be right 10:06, but most in the closet bisexuals, men and women don't talk about it openly to most people. They don't get surveyed. If they do, they say they are hetro. Unless there is some secret anonymous survey.
Unless there is some secret anonymous survey.
Studies use only anonymous surveys.
I wouldn't call them "open minded about sexuality" in that case.
Well you wouldn't and maybe most would not, but Experimenting sexually with same sex occassionally or bisexuality amongst consenting adults don't mean they have to tell the world what they do behind closed doors either. Do they?
The open mindedness is in their engaging in other than hetro sex.
And maybe more than once.
The open mindedness is in their engaging in other than hetro sex.
Let's presume that's true - why would that be significant or important?
^^ not important to me, but to some who want to hand out labels of anothers sexuality.
Wrong.
"Engaging in other than hetro sex" wouldn't change anyone's sexuality, it wouldn't turn straight guy into a gay guy or vice versa, so it has nothing to do with labels or labeling people's sexuality.
^^ Sorry, Some do want to hand out Labels.
And some just say I'm sexual, I do what I want, when I want, with who I want. And, for the most part, (most) of these same people (for whatever) reason tend to consider themselves hetro. Even though they participate in sexual relations that are not totally hetro.
I won't argue with them. Who am I to do that.
In the movie Kinsey, Peter Sarsgard charactor was bisexual but preferred men for some time, "if I can remember the movie well". He then had sex with Kinseys wife and then began to prefer sexual relationships with women (now) or before he had sex with her.
He and Kinsey had sex together also. Kinsey told his wife about it...
Very interesting movie about human sexuality.
Sorry, Some do want to hand out Labels.
We do need labels to communicate and I don't see how labels (straight, gay, bisexual, asexual) can be a problem to anyone - except to people who want to hide their sexuality.
^^ No, YOU don't.
Some people use labels to descriminate and to hate. The proud person can overcome it, but some won't.
The Jake is straight advocate wasted a lot of time here trying to sell their case to an audience that will never buy it. You would be better served spreading your religion at the 20 or so entertainment sites that totally trashed Jake during the past 2 days. News of his being gay got spread on those sites like wildfire. People who never believed it before converted. WFT2 and OMG are smaller and more manageable. Ironically they do the least amount of damage but occupy most of the trolls time.
From what i read, 2:45 AM, the general opinion se ems to bethat Taylor is promiscuous and Jake too good for her.
^^And it's not just Jake fangirls who say that.
Some people use labels to descriminate and to hate.
So what? They would use anything to do the same, labels/terms aren't evil and aren't problem.
What you need before slapping on a label are clear, agreed-upon definitions of each category.
the general opinion seems to be that Taylor is promiscuous and Jake too good for her.
Do these people realize she's a popular, not promiscuous, beard? And that Jake isn't too good for her; he's too gay for her?!
What you need before slapping on a label are clear, agreed-upon definitions of each category.
That was done by scientists during 20th century.
Do these people realize she's a popular, not promiscuous, beard? And that Jake isn't too good for her; he's too gay for her?!
Only people who aren't silly fangirls and don't believe every PR fiction.
6:51 it does not matter what scientists did in the 20th century. Sexuality is not an exact science. If you're the one insisting on labels, then instead of giving one line pat responses you need to write out clearly the list of YOUR categories and YOUR definitions for each. The way you're going at it is putting the bullshit before the cart before the horse.
6:51 it does not matter what scientists did in the 20th century. ... you need to write out clearly the list of YOUR categories and YOUR definitions for each...
Is that a joke? You question and would rewrite everything because you don't like gay Jake?
7:10, okay have it your way. We'll be waiting for you to post the sexuality category/definitions complete report and the link.
