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.”

Anne and Jake are promoting a "sex on a stick" kind of movie,plus LAOD seems to be more about promoting Jake's straightness than an actual story. They are acting touchy and baldy, it's all about promoting their shit.
Anne H. has a new movie with Chaning Tatum:
JJ
That girl's lucky. First she works with Jake, then she'll work with Franco and then Tatum.
Don't Ask Jake Gyllenhaal About Taylor Swift
While Jake Gyllenhaal makes the rounds promoting Love and Other Drugs, there's something super-private attached to his hip. And it's not Taylor Swift's phone number. Nope, wherever Jake goes, his publicist trails, bullishly laying down the law to reporters.
"No personal questions to Jake or he'll be pulled away, you got it?"
That's the line we (and many, many other reporters) got last week at the premiere, with one of those daring glares right at us like, you mention Taylor Swift I'm going to kick your ass.
But one journo didn't exactly play by the rules...
At a Love press conference in NYC, an interviewer went for it and asked J.G. what the deal was with Taylor Swift.
After the few seconds of awkward silence, Anne Hathaway jumped in for her buddy:
"Hang on, hang on, I have to say something! I have been Jake's onscreen love interest for years, all right? You keep the conversation to me and only me, otherwise I'm going to get nasty!"
Way to shut it down, girl! Jake's team was very pleased. But really, we must ask: Why is this duo being treated with the same secrecy as Robert Pattinson's relationship with taking a shower? It's all good, sexy fun, everybody. Own it, already!
It's the good old Robsten rule: Keep the fire going with nondenials (à la T.Swift on Ellen). It's certainly been working well for the couple referred to as Jaylor, so far.
Obviously, Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart couldn't keep their relaysh a secret for very long, and the same could be said about Jake and Taylor.
The pair supposedly met up over the weekend for another flirtfest before Swift headed to Nashville Sunday for CMA rehearsals.
And apparently, that's not the only thing Jake is trying to keep hidden.
Popeater reports Gyllenhaal hasn't invited Swift to a screening of Love and Other Drugs because he thinks it's too soon for T.S. to see him so naked.
Ummm, so does that mean ice cream dates and a makeout session are as far as the couple has gone? Shame on that.
You are talking of the time when they already have split.
So what, you said "Michelle always took her to movie sets and to all her travels. Heath did not. When Heath traveled, Matilda stayed with Michelle at home." which isn't true together or apart.
Heath (and other people who know him) said he took time off to be with Matilda, cook for her and play mister mom and there's no reason to doubt him. A few days a month in LA doesn't change anything. Michelle was mostly filming in NYC so she probably left Matilda at home with Heath and the nanny.
I formed my opinion about Heath as a father thanks to pictures, quotes and facts, and unless you post some links that show Heath as a very absent, bad or irresponsible father I'll stick to it.
Taking your baby for a ride in a stroller doesn't make you a great dad. Heath loved his baby but he loved to party more, that's why Michelle told him to go away. Accept it.
and unless you post some links that show Heath as a very absent, bad or irresponsible father I'll stick to it.
Heath had a drug habit and od'd on prescription drugs when his little girl was only two. He spent Christmas at home with family, friends and Gemma, but didn't go to Sweden to see Matilda. Michelle's people said in that VF Gilliam interview that Heath could have come to Sweden to see Matilda if he WANTED to.
Accept you don't know anything more than the rest of us and quit pretending you do.
The "code" for the comments under Ted's Jake/Taylor thing is "tooth."
I believe Gilliam more than anonymous sources i.e Michelle's PR.
"you don't know anything more than the rest of us "
So, if you admit to not knowing nothing either, what is what you are "sticking" to , anyway?
Loving your children and being able to raise them right are two different things.
So, if you admit to not knowing nothing either, what is what you are "sticking" to , anyway?
I never said or acted like I knew anything, unlike you. Read again, I said "my opinion". If it makes you (and others) feel better to think Heath was a lousy father, go ahead, but don't pretend you know facts "Heath loved his baby but he loved to party more, that's why Michelle told him to go away. Accept it."
When the truth about Heath and Michelle eventually comes out I think you'll find it's the other way around. Until then have a nice day!
Bitch Back
Dear Ted:
My question is about the star of B.V.s everywhere, Toothy Tile. Back in May, you confirmed that Toothy and Grey Goose were still an item, but have since hinted that things have cooled off considerably. Are they still seeing each other sometimes, or has there been an actual breakup?
—Gabrielle
Dear Toothalicious:
Does any couple that's in love ever really break up? Nope.
Dear Ted:
Would you please finally "And It Ain't" Jake Gyllenhaal as Toothy Tile? I get so sick of these people running around being so certain he's T.T. Can you shut them up once and for all and sic them all on a new suspect?
—Wouldn'tCareifHeWasJustSickofKnow-it-all-Jerks
Dear And It Ain't:
It doesn't really matter what you care or think because according to Jake, it ain't him.
Dear Ted:
Wanna help a volunteer fanatic overcome the Monday blues? Really? Thanks! Rank the following according to how emotionally close (like BFFs) the following closeted stars are to their respective current beards, from besties to enemies in it for the PR: Toothy Tile, Seymour Plow-Me-More, Harland Fuss and Jackie Bouffant. Sending some hungover kisses your way!
—Hannah
Dear Rhetorical:
Jackie the closest, by far. Seymour a distant second, and Toothy and Harland? Don't even ask!
Dear Ted:
Is there any truth that Toothy Tile and Grey Goose may be working on a movie project together.
—Rocky Mountain High
Dear Mountains of Wrong:
Nope. One half of the once PR love buzz is making cinematic waves, but the other...not so much! One can dream, though. How hot would that be? I wouldn't put it past, Toothy, actually.
Have a nice day too!
Oh my...
1/2 of the once PR love buzz ...
I wouldn't put it past, (comma placement can be everything sometimes) ...
Say it ain't so! :(
Is there any truth that Toothy Tile and Grey Goose may be working on a movie project together.
What?????? Where did that come from?
What?????? Where did that come from?
LOL, I thought that, too. Maybe someone was confused about the Blind Gossip item, thought it was referring to TT and GG instead of TT and beard. Anyway, Ted likes it because he gets to use Toothy/BBM hints or maybe he's using it as another hint that TT/GG are a thing of the past.
12:10PM: Some OMGer's were spinning that Austin was in CO in August at that race because he and Jake were going to do a movie together, one of them obviously sent that letter, hell they send all the TT/Jake letters.
Since then we find out that it was Peter that was interested in that race and most likely Jake was tagging along.
They like their fan fic don't they?
PS They are also pissed at Ramona for giving Uncle Jake a few silly brandtz braclets, I guess they thought that he bought them himself and was wearing them for some "reason", LOL!!
Ted said: "Does any couple that's in love ever really break up? Nope."
Ted is saying that TT and GG are still together.
I think Ted is saying that if you have really loved someone, you never really forget them. J&A obviously had the real thing, is what he's saying. I hope I'm wrong and that they are still a couple. :(
President Obama Had a Gay Nanny Who Joined a Drag Troupe
From a NYT article on Obama's visit Tuesday to Jakarta, Indonesia, where he lived as a boy from 1967 to 1971:
"Obama Mr. Obama’s family rented the guest house inside a compound belonging to a prominent physician. There, according to the neighborhood’s longtime residents, the young Obama, who had already experienced differences in class and religion in his short stay in Indonesia, was exposed to another aspect of Jakarta’s diversity.
His nanny was an openly gay man who, in keeping with Indonesia’s relaxed attitudes toward homosexuality, carried on an affair with a local butcher, longtime residents said. The nanny later joined a group of transvestites called Fantastic Dolls, who, like the many transvestites who remain fixtures of Jakarta’s streetscape, entertained people by dancing and playing volleyball."
http://www.towleroad.com/2010/11/president-obama-had-a-gay-nanny-who-joined-a-drag-troupe.html
Ted is full of shit and you know it, he knows shit just like you.
PS: Why is he pimping Jaylor???
Why lol?
Ted said: "Does any couple that's in love ever really break up? Nope."
I read this as Ted saying TT and GG are a couple and in love. Ted is denying there was a break up. He is saying they are still together.
Unless he means it's on again off again ... to be on again at some point. He says they have that history. :)
Ted's not pimping Jake and his new beard, he's making fun of them like he did with Reeke.
Ted doesn't really know what's going on with J&A - he's hinting that they're not a couple anymore, but will always care for each other, blah, blah.
Well he is comparing them to Robesten and we all know what a joke that is including Teddy!
Some discussion the other day about how RT works - found this on their site:
FAQs
REVIEWS
.....
How are reviews selected and gathered?
We gather reviews from a set pool of sources (Approved Tomatometer Critics), either by checking their sites or having the critics or webmasters submit the review to us.
On the day a movie opens -- usually Friday mornings by 8:00 a.m. (PST) - only reviews from Approved Tomatometer Critics are listed. If you want to read a review from a critic who is not counted toward the tomatometer, select "All Film Reviews" from the drop down menu above the cast names and just below the movie title.
What is your methodology for defining whether a review that does not include a star rating or other objective grading scale counts as a Fresh or Rotten rating on the tomatometer?
Most critics from the Online Film Critics Society (OFCS) enter their own quotes and ratings. For critics who don't enter in their own quotes and ratings, it's basically up to the judgment of the editors. They take into account word choice, rating (if any), tone, and who's the critic in their determination of whether a review is positive or not. If an editor is not certain about a review, it is sent to another editor for a second opinion. "Wishy-washy" reviews, reviews that are really difficult to determine if the critic recommends the film or not, are usually given a Rotten because if the critic is not confident enough to give the movie even an implied recommendation, then we shouldn't either.
A Porno Based On Taylor Swift & Kanye West Is Being Considered
Do you wish long-time rivals Kanye and Taylor would kiss and make up already?
The good people at Vivid Entertainment want the same thing, though they’d like to see Kanye West, 33, and Taylor Swift, 20, do a whole lot more than just kiss. The adult video giant confirms to HollywoodLife.com exclusively that an adult film based on Kanye and Taylor’s ongoing war of words might not be far off. “Vivid is definitely considering the situation between Taylor and Kanye for a movie,” reveals Steven Hirsch, founder and co-chairman of Vivid Entertainment. “Of course, our take would be in parody form and could heat up the relationship between the two.”
Ewwwww!
Negative Roger Ebert Quote Used On Asian DVD of The Perfect Man
Roger Ebert posted a picture on his blog of an Asian DVD cover for Hilary Duff's movie The Perfect Man in which they used a very negative quote on the front cover of the DVD. It reads:
"The Perfect Man takes its idiotic plot and uses it as the excuse for scenes of awesome stupidity"
Ebert, who posted the image on his blog, simply remarked with "I love it when I'm quoted correctly."
To read the rest of Ebert's one star review, visit his website here.

VIDEO: Jake Gyllenhaal: "It's Always Tricky Getting a Girl"
With his good looks, nice-guy rep and history of dating beautiful women, it's hard to believe that Jake Gyllenhaal has any trouble in the romance department. But the adorable star of Love & Other Drugs (which hits theaters Nov. 24) insists it can be tough.
"It's always tricky getting a girl," the 29-year-old actor (who's rumored to be dating Taylor Swift) tells iVillage exclusively. "There ain't nothing easy about it."
Luckily, costar Anne Hathaway, 27, was at our sitdown to ask the question everyone's thinking: "Even for you?!"
Watch our exclusive interview to find out how the onscreen couple felt about stripping down for their racy sex scenes and why Gyllenhaal says "women are amazing and complicated creatures."
Video - ivillage
and history of dating beautiful women,
Really? This can be said for a lot of actors - Clooney and DiCaprio come to mind. But come on, Kirsten is really cute, but Reese is not beautiful and neither is Swifty.
"It's always tricky getting a girl"
LOL!
November 9 - Jake and Anne Arriving At Heathrow Airport In London

Where is "unknown male"?
The one wearing the poppy in his lapel.
Thanks for sharing us informative posts.
You're welcome! :)
"It's always tricky getting a girl"
LOL!
Don't laugh! My people have to contact her people, then her people have to talk it over and give the okay, then there's the first "audition," then Mom has to give her approval, then the contracts have to be signed...

Dear god, does Jake ping. He can talk about the tons of sex he had with Anne in LAOD - which wasn't acting of course - as much as he wants but he's never looked gayer.
Damn! No more video interviews with Anne!
as much as he wants but he's never looked gayer
LEAVE JAKE ALONE. He's just sensitive and softly spoken.
And Gay!
He looked more butch on all fours in that tent with Heath than giggling with Anne :)
LOL 8.25
I want one cock in my ass, one in my cunt and one down my throat!
That's nice dear^
Sorry 8:35 PM, we can't help you with that!
Darn. I knew that only women posted here but I was hoping. Oh well, back to the dildos and vibraters!
Caught Anne on Leno, she seemed very hyper and weird, coke?
How was she "weird"?
She was overly bubbly to the point where it seemed forced and creepy, I even saw a glimpse of it in some of the videos.
And she looks odd in the London airport pics, did you see her up close? I know she just got off the plane and all but she looked weird.
Therer are drug rumors about her and her BF and I remember a weird tweet last year about her dentist and saying that she did coke, i assume she is rubbing it on her gums so nit to screw up her nose.
Dear god, does Jake ping. He can talk about the tons of sex he had with Anne in LAOD - which wasn't acting of course - as much as he wants but he's never looked gayer.
I swear I hope you are not some gay boy/man hoping for him to come out and support your cause and the gay community while criticizing him in the same breath of (pinging and Being GAY). Or anyone wanting and ?Waiting? for him to come out and complaining of him being gay. I've heard it all.
Not only does he ping in those interviews but he cant control his initial wave of lust for the young male interviewer in one. He recovers after a minute but you can see it pass his face. The interviewer finds an excuse to ask for a hug at the end and Jake is eager to respond. Checking for hardness.
jtyboone: Nothing helps an emotionally taxing day like Jake Gyllenhaal singing "Whip My Hair" while Anne Hathaway does just that.

Come on, it's promo time, he was totally not my type!
"Jake Gyllenhaal singing "Whip My Hair""
Here's the Baby Tile/Willow Smith connection that Ted mentioned the other day ;)
Jake/Anne 'Whip my hair' gif (credit ONTD)
LOL @ Anne! Is Jake kissing Will Smith's ass or he really likes pop music for kids?
Jake is joking around.
Jake/Anne 'Whip my hair' gif (credit ONTD)
Funny gif, but in all seriousness, Anne has amazing hair. It looks so shiny and healthy. She and Jake are an attractive couple. But they behave like bro/sis. I wonder if they'll stay in touch after promo is over?
I get that, I'm just surprised he actually listens to that kind of music.
God I hope he's not Justin Bieber fan!!! lol
I get that, I'm just surprised he actually listens to that kind of music.
^^
Me too.
New Blue Valentine poster:
Sexy
I think the new poster oozes sexiness, even more so than Jake's and Anne's half naked poster. This is strong sexual chemistry. Jake and Anne are cute chemistry.
I found the promo interviews with Michelle and Ryan with the UST and little awkwardness much sexier than Jake's and Anne's cute touchy feely interviews. I also think that Jake's and Heath's UST and little awkwardness was sexy.
That said, I hope LAOD will receive decent reviews and b.o..
BV, however, has written awards all over it. Their a sure deal. IMDB rating is amazing too.
^^
They're
or he really likes pop music for kids?
God I hope he's not Justin Bieber fan!!! lol
I get that, I'm just surprised he actually listens to that kind of music.
Swifty is typical top-40 bubblegum country/pop music, too. You've heard one of her songs, you've heard them all. I find it really, really hard to believe he likes her songs either.
That said, I hope LAOD will receive decent reviews and b.o..
BV, however, has written awards all over it. Their a sure deal. IMDB rating is amazing too.
I'm hoping for mostly positive reviews for LAOD, too. I do think it will do well at the b.o. But from the reviews I've read, it sounds more like a typical romcom/drama than I'd thought at first.
BV looks amazing and I love that poster. Completely different type of movie than LAOD though. Meant to be gritty and raw, whereas Jake and Anne are so shined and polished looking in LAOD trailers and pics.
I love that new BV poster--now THAT is hot. Whew!!!
BTW, Disney's "Tangled" is opening the same day as LaOD--and then there's Harry Potter that opens a few days before--and of course, there's Oscar frontrunner/crowd please "The King's Speech" opening same day as LaOD. I'm not sure the film will be number one in the box office that same weekend.
This sounds sort of crazy, but I know Anne said her fave young actor at the mo is Gosling. I wonder if RG had played Jake's role in LAOD and promoted the film with Anne, if the dynamic and chemistry would be much different?
I want to see them in a movie together.
This idea comes from some poster(s) who responded to David Poland's, I paraphrase, it's Jake's fault that LAOD is just a good, not a great movie. I didn't see the movie, so I can't judge.
I mostly do enjoy Jake as an actor though.
Anne's bf looks like a poor man's Ryan Gosling. ;)
OMG! What a poster - *swoon* Ryan is very sexy in the clips I've seen. :)
The other poster is nice too, but this one has passions, and Ryan's expression, what you can see of it. :)
"The King's Speech" opening same day as LaOD
I don't understand why "The King's Speech" already has 13 reviews and a score at RT, and LAOD only has two reviews so far at RT.
Sounds like there's a lot of good movies to see - LaOD and BV are two entirely different films, and I look forward to both.
Another new J/A interview:

Why?
A few double entendres :)
Anne has herpes on her upper lip and her make up is running. :)

Hey Ted:
I have never written in before but I had to ask you about the Taylor Swift and Jake Gyllenhaal "relationship." All the ice cream dates and apple picking honestly make me want to vomit. It seems just a little too convenient. Taylor has a new record and Jake has a movie coming out soon. It does remind me of Swift's old ice cream "dates" with Taylor Lautner. Anyway, what is your opinion: Is this relationship Hollywood fake, or are Jake and Taylor the real deal?
—Nee
Dear Hold Your Vom:
Awful will be the first to say we were stumped, and a little sick to our tums, when we heard about Jaylor, especially after the short-lived stunt Swifty pulled with everyone's favorite werewolf. Still, doesn't Jakey not wanting to dish about his country honey on the red carpet last weekend make all this licking and picking totally seem real? I know, and I'm straight.
Dear Ted:
You have stated in the past that Toothy Tile knows who he is, reads your column and is quite flattered by his moniker. Now that got me wondering: Knowing all this, do you still personally interview him on the red carpet or for sit-downs? Are you able to keep a straight face, look him in the eye and not call him Toothy? Or are you banned from actually talking to him? We all know Hollywood is all about pretense, but come on, in his everyday life, people must refer to him as Toothy to his face, and every time, he must be thinking of paying you back, no?
—Rita
Dear Too Much Tooth:
Paying me back? Darling, Tooth is most grateful for any and all publicity I afford him—of this I am certain. You must remember, this is a guy who's totally into kinky, extraordinary sex, which few of his fans know about. And when Mr. Tile gets to see the items we write up about him, he totally gets the biggest vicarious thrill imaginable.
Dear Ted:
With Taylor Swift being all over the news lately with her new album release, it has me wondering: Has she ever cracked under pressure? Does she have her own Blind Vice hidden away somewhere?
—Emma
Dear Blinded by the Blond:
Taylor will never crack—that's one tough little mother. And yes, of course, she has a Blind all to her own, already, that's a given!
The King's Speech has been screened to critics at major film festivals.
It's not actually what Jake says, but how he says it to Anne, and his expression. Ha! ;)

TAYLOR SWIFT & JAKE GYLLENHAAL HOOK-UP SECRETS
WHO is the ex-lover who hooked up JAKE GYLLENHAAL with America's sweetheart TAYLOR SWIFT?!
REESE WITHERSOON!
Reese still feels so bad about dumping Jake Gyllenhaal that she recently played matchmaker and hooked him up with country cutie Taylor Swift, sources say.
The Brokeback Mountain hunk has been unhappily single since splitting from Reese about a year ago, sources say, while the Oscar-winning actress is seriously dating agent Jim Toth.
"Reese and Jim are deliriously happy," divulged a close pal. "They are living together in Los Angeles and are talking about getting engaged. But Jake hadn't found anyone else, and has been miserable."
The Legally Blonde beauty stayed in touch with Jake after their two-year romance ended, and Jake, 29, recently confided that Taylor, 20, had caught his eye, said the source.
That's when Reese went into matchmaking mode, said the source.
She called the young star- who's dated Twilight hunk Taylor Lautner, heartthrob Joe Jonas and musician John Mayer - to sing her ex's praises, said the insider.
"Reese told Taylor that Jake's a good guy who's romantic and a lot of fun, but would never take advantage of her," said the source.
Taylor then invited Jake to accompany her to New York where her friend Emma Stone was hosting Saturday Night Live, the source revealed.
"Jake and Taylor went to the show, had breakfast the next morning and spent a wonderful weekend together," said the source.
"Reese told a friend, 'I've felt bad that Jake's been hurting since we broke up.
"Hopefully, Taylor's the one for him.'"

The King's Speech has been screened to critics at major film festivals.

I hate this Taylor, Jake, Reese bullcrap. I know we can post everything here, but... ugh.
TAYLOR SWIFT & JAKE GYLLENHAAL HOOK-UP SECRETS
UNFUCKINGBELIEVABLE.
Ted said: "...she has a Blind all to her own, already, that's a given!"
Taylor Swift is the blind item Priscilla Desert, the A-list beard.
Will be interesting to see how the audience aka normal filmgoer will response to the "Kings Speech".
BTW has anyone read Duncan Jones twitter regularly? He is getting asked about Soruce Code and his answer is always that he "beliees" it will be out in APril...
I understand that he does not want to talk about it 24/7 but it is his second film and and I see zero interest or excitement.
"Reese told Taylor that Jake's a good guy who's romantic and a lot of fun, but would never take advantage of her"
Best. Line. Ever. And what makes it so funny is that whoever is making up this bullshit doesn't realize how funny it is. Or maybe they do?
"Hopefully, Taylor's the one for him.'"
Honestly I had not expected the bullshit reaching such a level...
A 20 year old behaving like a 14 year old the is "the one"....
Does he and his people really believe this will bring him respect from filmfans or new roles?
I can't believe the NE stuff is coming from Jake's people. They'd have to be dumb as a box of rocks (I know, I know!) to want to make him come off looking so completely f*cking stupid, desperate and lame. Reese as the sensitive, caring matchmaker. Jake as the sadsack "ex" who's been "confiding" in her? Such transparent Epic Bullshit.
Don't believe everything you read guys. Sometimes things are entirely made up w/o PR's help. Chill.
It's not actually what Jake says, but how he says it to Anne, and his expression. Ha! ;)
Jake's such a dork. If he was straight, you'd think he was somewhat shy with and afraid of women. Not at all a cool seducer. LOL.

Are Rachel Bilson and Hayden Christensen Friends or Are They Friends?
In its uncanny style, accompanied with all the emotion of a Beverly Hills housewife's face, People declared that Rachel Bilson and her hunky ex-boyfriend Hayden Christensen are back together and "dating again," according to an unnamed friend to the former O.C. actor.
People goes on to gush that Bilson and her onetime fiancé Christensen, whose career seems to have taken on a distinctly unblockbuster taint after his Star Wars flicks, "aren't hiding it, either."
This statement was backed up by the fact that Hayden was recently seen leaving Rachel's Los Feliz house. Well, we have unnamed sources, too, girlfriends, and this is what one close to Hayden has to say:
"Yeah, they still talk. They still see each other. But are they back together?" asks the (also handsome) pal to the extremely handsome Canadian actor, "I wouldn't say that, exactly."
So what the hell does that mean, exactly, we pressed.
"Let me just put it this way: In a time when Jake Gyllenhaal is going on ice cream dates, yeah, Rachel and Hayden are back on, and they'll get married, too!"
For real?
At this point, our not-so-tight-lipped Hayden chum got sick of our questions and suddenly zipped it. Hmmm. Did we press too hard?
Or better yet, does anybody really care here? Hey, we love romance and breakup (sex) stories just as much as the next lovesick reporter, but we're just asking!
Anne Hathaway, would you like to start off the discussion? You did so well with Jake.
The Awful Truth
Awww, I think shy is cute. I'm sure many women would be happy to make him feel at ease. ;)
People declared that Rachel Bilson and her hunky ex-boyfriend Hayden Christensen are back together and "dating again," according to an unnamed friend to the former O.C. actor.
Hayden, have you lost your mind?
Jake and Taylor update! People has the well-researched facts on why this unexpected pairing is working. And by facts, I mean unnamed sources. Friends of Swift say that Jake is super sweet to Taylor and has charmed her so much that she is always giddy about seeing him. No, duh! It’s Jake! Another thing that supposedly strengthens the twosome? Gyllenhaal is big fan of Taylor’s music. Does this mean he is in it for the free serenades? In related “news”: People readers have spoken and voted that this new couple should be called “TayJay”—with “Swiftenhaal” being the runner-up. [People]
Tabloid Cheat Sheet - The Frisky
Nah, I don't think Swiftenhaal will continue. Whatever she was to him: potential beard/galpal, he probably realized it's a mistake. I think it's over for good.
Another thing that supposedly strengthens the twosome? Gyllenhaal is big fan of Taylor’s music.
LOL. One of the most embarrassing things written so far, tbh. Title for her next album: "Achy Breaky Jakey."
Gyllenhaal is big fan of Taylor’s music.
LMAO!
Those PR fuckers are reading WFT2 :)
Jakey’s here
In London. He and Anne Hathaway arrived yesterday. Photos are attached. So f-cking cute, both of them.
So on the flight over, I couldn’t sleep, went through every movie, and then finally decided ok, fine, Prince of Persia. Goddamn it’s an awful movie. But goddamn he is irresistible. When he is sly smiling, or flirty smiling, or being a pain in the ass smiling, whatever he’s doing when he is smiling, it becomes all kinds of trouble. I will admit to you there were a couple of times I actually hit rewind, that’s how much trouble.
Which is why I have avoided almost all interviews he’s been doing for Love & Other Drugs. It’s just not productive. It’s dangerously unproductive. I had actually forgotten til this morning, when I decided to open up an interview that Katie sent over because of the reference to Willow Smith. I wanted to go as Willow Smith for Halloween. I couldn’t resist a Jakey + Willow Smith combination.
Big mistake.
First of all Anne is flawless. Then try not to swoon when he tells her, very sincerely, how beautiful she is. And, um, try not to fixate on his perfect nose. And then when the rapid fire round begins...whatever, it’s over. He is too much. You are too much for me Jakey. Woah follow the train of thought. Jake + Too Much reminded me of The Line. Or, more accurately I guess, The Scene.
You are too much for me Ennis, you son of a whoreson bitch...

From Lamey's live blog:
[Comment From El: ] Do you have anything new about Taylor/Jake? And why, as a smart woman, are you not annoyed that he is with a not-dumb-but-naive girl?
Lainey: El - Taylor and Jake are really into each other right now. He just as much as her. As for me being annoyed. Whatever. I mean he's never been a lifetime list candidate. I just want to flirt and have sex with him. Who gives a sh-t?
[Comment From day: ] jacek please, i wanna know about love and other drugs let me through!
Lainey: Day - as I've already noted, there is an embargo on Love & Other Drugs. It hasn't been lifted yet. So your questions are going to have to be specific. Ie. Is Jake hot in it? Yes. Does Anne Hathaway have great breasts? Yes. Did I laugh? Yes. Will it make you horny? yes.
Lainey
LMAO. One think JiG, JiB, JiS fans have in commen is their dislike of Taylor/Jake.
LAOD review embargo DOESN'T SOUND GOOD. Am I right?
Box Office magazine gave it a negative review, unfortunately.
not good
One think JiG, JiB, JiS fans have in commen is their dislike of Taylor/Jake.
That's because no one wants to watch him make a fool of himself. Exception: His PR people. More obvious than ever that Lamey is a JiS PR tool. "Really into each other right now." LOL.
I don't get the embargo thing. Some reviews are already out there, aren't they?
Lamey is even more embarrassing than babblers.
Looks like LAOD is BBM's handicapped child. ;)
There is never an embargo for no reason. I bet all involved in the movie know that it's not that well loved by critics.
I knew from the moment Ted C. posted a great review of LAOD that the movie is doomed. He dissed BBM and you all know how that one turned out. Ted should keep on gossiping. That's what he's good at...or not.
I bet all involved in the movie know that it's not that well loved by critics.
They know, that's why they work SO hard to promote it. Look at BBM, the cast hardly promoted it before it opened but the movie spoke for itself and made over 10x its production budget even though it was far from a crowd pleaser.
^^Exactly.
New Us Weekly: Jake & Taylor Going Strong
magazine scan
If Source Code sucks too, Jake should seriously consider to quit acting. It must be embarrassing for him to have continuous failures. I remember a reviewer who predicted that Jake will fall off the A-List and never climb back. That was in 2007.
Mmh. UV over at Babblers posted three reviews - one bad (mentioned above), one mixed and one good. I am astonished that the opionions are so different on this one...
Embargo is not unsusal - many films are having it. Although I don´t understand the concept- some reviews are already out.
Critics are not so important for this one - Box Office is.
So far Source Code is his last movie lined up anyway.
"If Source Code sucks too, Jake should seriously consider to quit acting."
There are actors out there much worse than Jake and they are getting constantly work.
Critics are not so important for this one - Box Office is.
They have fierce competition, so reviews in this case are very relevant and WOM for good box office.
Doug Liman confirmed that he still working on UMP and Jake is still attached.
"But our big question remained, was Jake Gyllenhaal attached or had the actor’s attachment intent expired? We put the question to Liman and he said Gyllenhaal was still onboard. “Yeah, he is [still part of it]. People are talking awards for him in ‘Love & Other Drugs’,” Liman told The Playlist."

"They have fierce competition, so reviews in this case are very relevant and WOM for good box office."
I don´t think the Harry Potter crowd is the main target group for LAOD...:)
They both look really fug in that US scan, and in the same way--maybe it really is a match made in heaven.
Jake doesn't look fug in it.
"New Us Weekly: Jake & Taylor Going Strong"
And I thought that Reeke shit was idiotic!
"I don´t think the Harry Potter crowd is the main target group for LAOD...:)"
A lot of adults and teens are fans of HP. It's like Lord of the Rings or Star Wars.It's not only appealing to kids
"New Us Weekly: Jake & Taylor Going Strong"
If anyone needed confirmation that this is another fauxmance, there it is :)
The Jake&Taylor nonsense will be over as soon as LAOD promo ends.
I wonder which starlet is going to be the beard for Source Code...
A lot of adults and teens are fans of HP. It's like Lord of the Rings or Star Wars.It's not only appealing to kids
Yep. It's a big misconception that Harry Potter is a "kids" movie. Very, very popular with people in their 20s who grew up reading the books and seeing the movies - and with older adults too.
LAOD London premiere is today?
I doubt Jaylor will be over any time soon. Both parties are milking it and Reeke BS already confirmed that Jake is willing to go as low as possible. Have a happy journey to the bottom!
Embargos are never a good sign. Same thing happened with POP and you know how that worked out. They have had so many previews Im surprised there are people left who have not seen the movie.
The Taylor news is a riot. Reese set them up. Really? What they mean is their shared management who set up the Reeke bearding arrangement and now the latest. Plus word that Jake does not want Taylor to see him naked is even funnier coming from a man who talks about how he loves to be and is often naked. Inadvertent confirmation that they slept in separate rooms at that Post Ranch Inn jaunt.
The Taylor news is a riot. Reese set them up.
Jake's team set them up according to Us Weekly (see scan).
Inadvertent confirmation that they slept in separate rooms at that Post Ranch Inn jaunt.
What rooms, that sighting was made up.
The us weekly story and national enquirer contradict each other. One says Reese contacted Taylor who then invited Jake to SNL. The other says Jake has been the one pursuing her from the start. Tabloid fiction. Though even us weekly calls the pair weird. You know its bad when they think a couple is weird.
Pfft, our fiction is better!
Embargos are never a good sign.
They are not. The movie will receive mixed reviews at best.
There was a pre screening for Source Code, the guy who saw it wasn't allowed to review the movie, but he could have just said it's good or bad, instead he just said that he formed his opinion. Hm.
I doubt Jaylor will be over any time soon. Both parties are milking it and Reeke BS already confirmed that Jake is willing to go as low as possible.
IA. Swifty has no reason to want to stop, there's no downside for her. As for Jake, you're right - nothing is too low for him :( Sad, really. Plus, what is he going to do when LAOD promo is over? Doesn't look like he's going to start filming a new movie right away. They want his name and pic out there as much as possible to increase his potential for award noms.
Does anyone know how embargoes work? Do they apply only to certain critics? How are they enforced? If you break the embargo, are you then banned from early screenings of the producer's next movie?
Guess Who I Met?!
JAMES FRANCO!!
He was at Inside the Actors Studio where I work.
He talked about:
His life, his brother.
Freaks and Geeks
Didnt like all the stunt work on spider man, it took 3 months to shoot the 5min fight sequence.
How he experienced male prostitution first hand to play the part in Sunny
How he beat out Leo Dicarpio, Brad Pitt, and Johnny Depp for the James Dean movie.
His role in Milk
How he improvised 50% of pineapple express with seth greene. 'It smells like God's Vagina' was all his improv.
He worked on Eat, Pray, and Love, because of Julia Roberts, and he still hasnt seen the movie (he knows it sucks).
Told critics who didnt like his book to fuck off, it's his book and he will write anything he wants in it.
People passing out in 127hours screenings.
All the emotions he shows through that move is genuine
How he's a scholar and getting his PhD at Yale
His favorite curse word: shit burger
James Lipton: What Turns You On?
James Franco: Rabbits
He's soo nice and hilarious, he waited and took pictures with anyone who wanted one.
Didnt like all the stunt work on spider man, it took 3 months to shoot the 5min fight sequence.
Franco is so strange!
Rabbits turn him on??? T
LOL :)

James Franco is awesome!

They get shitty work. Let's see how SC turns out. I read about rumors that it's not very good.
Looking at Jake now, it's hard to recognize the cool dude from Donnie Darko or the sexy lover from BBM. His career went down hill. Sad.
"James Franco is awesome!"
I just try to imagine him or Gosling or JGL being part of such tabloid nonsense like "Jake & Taylor Going Strong".....None of those guys would allow themselves being part of such a crap.
I think it would have more effect if someone like Franco comes out as gay. Someone who's actually successful. In 2 years no one will care about Jake G. anymore. The only thing that's interesting about him is Toothy Tile.
Reading this blog is a bit like watching last nights Apprentice, embarassing!.
Why embarrassing?
I just try to imagine him or Gosling or JGL being part of such tabloid nonsense like "Jake & Taylor Going Strong".....None of those guys would allow themselves being part of such a crap.
Notice that Franco is getting a lot of attention and rave reviews BECAUSE OF HIS PERFORMANCE in "127 Hours." He's not on the cover of US Weekly with the current "it" girl desperately begging for attention.
I can't believe how different Jake's sister is to Jake. She's getting attention for her good performances and is one of the more respected actors in business and keeps her private life private.
What Babblers are really embarrassed by is the Swifty fauxmance but, of course, they can't admit it, lol.
I almost feel sorry for babblers, at least we can vent! :)

Not just his career, HE went downhill which is even sadder.
I can't believe how different Jake's sister is to Jake. She's getting attention for her good performances and is one of the more respected actors in business and keeps her private life private.
I don't think Maggie so's different at all. She and Peter have to be directly involved in providing Jake cover and helping him with his lies. Accomplices and facilitators are as guilty as the main participant. The only real difference between her and Jake is he was born gay and felt he had to buy into the Hollywood closet (including fauxmances to up his "women" love me quotient") to continue as a viable actor. Unfortunately, that same Hollywood system is rapidly destroying Jake's reputation, credibility and even his likeability. I never thought I would begin to dislike Jake, but I'm sorry to say this last PR stunt is troubling.
I almost feel sorry for babblers, at least we can vent! :)
Good point :) Poor babblers are going to develop ulcers trying to either ignore the Swifty thing or pretend it's all good, lol.
Bitch Back
Dear Ted:
Let's stop with this Twi-hard stuff for a moment and focus on a real hot guy: Daniel Craig! Hottie, definite heartbreaker, but home-wrecker? Have you heard anything about his supposed hookup with Rachel Weisz? I know you said his Blind Vice was sex, sex, sex, but was it perhaps sex, sex, sex recently or past? Sorry for my mature tastes, but I'd much rather imagine sex with James Bond than Edward Cullen. My five shelter kitties and shelter dog would appreciate it!
—Cat
Dear Private Eye:
I'm sorry, your brood would appreciate you having sex with Daniel Craig or finding out if Rachel did? I'm confused. Regardless, hon, if you want to drool over James Bond, you certainly have come to the right place. He's one of the manlier men in this town, which is filled with Toothy Tile's who don't seem to know their penises from their checkbooks. Craig rarely gets the two confused. As for Rachel and Daniel, they're both saying not true, which is a huge shame.
Dear Ted:
Is Jackie Bouffant gay or bi?
—Lawton
Dear Thin Line:
It is tough to distinguish between the two sometimes. Jackie has stepped out on his beard with other girls, but those sloppy makeout sessions seem more for show. I foresee J.B. ending up secretly with a dude à la Toothy Tile, rather than Nevis Divine who will end up with a chick.
Dear Ted:
Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer always seemed like an odd pairing. But was their relationship unique to John? Did he treat her differently than his other conquests? He seems to have a lot of respect for her, at least in the public eye...
—I don't get what she was thinking
Dear Leopard Don't Change It's Spots:
I think Jen was different in the sense that she was one of the more confident and powerful femme's John nailed. Jessica Simpson and Jennifer Love-Hewitt, not so much. Aniston knew what she was getting into and set her own rules. That's probably why it didn't work out between them. That, and Mayer's a skank.
Dear Ted:
Why is Taylor Swift always dating guys that gossip sites love? She's dated/been seen with Joe Jonas, Corey Monteith, Taylor Lautner, John Mayer and now Jake Gyllenhaal. Is she such a fame seeker, or do they pursue her? Is this all only about publicity?
—Laura
Dear Country Darling:
Please, T.Swift doesn't need to seek fame. Her record-breaking voice does that all on its own. The guys, however, each serve different purposes. Like being spotted on bowling dates with Corey, a wholesome Glee guy, right after she was caught making out with John Mayer in Nashville wasn't a coincidence.
Please, T.Swift doesn't need to seek fame.
There isn't big enough WTF????????? for this :)
Hey, Swifty may not NEED to seek fame, but that doesn't mean she doesn't love the attention and doesn't seek it. She made a big PR event out of her supposedly Good Samaritan act of following some young fan of hers and surprising her. Totally phony famewhore moment. Look at Reese - she's an Oscar winner with no shortage of roles and big name co-stars (Pattinson, Hardy, Pine), but she still can't stop herself from seeking attention.
Why embarassing
Work it out yourself seeing as you all "know" everything, no more replies from me as I have read enough hatred and lies on here to last me a lifetime.
Bye I will shut the door on my way out.
10:49 AM - you still can't stand the truth and people who dare to have opinions?
Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out 10:49 AM!!!
Bye I will shut the door on my way out.
Didn't you say that last week? ;)
emmaskipper: Oh dear Jake Gyllenhaal was NAT in a good mood! Anne Hathaway was a saint though, big big fan now.
Bye I will shut the door on my way out.
And don't come back until you pay your rent
^^Did Jake hear about SC test screening not going well?
BeautyAndDirt: Grumpy Jake > not expected RT @emmaskipper: Oh dear Jake Gyllenhaal was NAT in a good mood! Anne Hathaway was a saint am a big big fan now
katiecranley: Think the normally lovely Jake Gyllenhaal must be having an off day - not much fun at press conference today
It must have something to do with Source Code screening. This guy just isn't lucky with his films anymore. What the hell?
Oh dear Jake Gyllenhaal was NAT in a good mood!
Jake can't always be 'on', he's human too.
I loved Moon and am still looking forward to Mute.
Since I had to sign an NDA there's not much of anything I can say about it (it's still 6 months out so who knows what they might change anyhow). Believe me, I do have an opinion of what I saw. Hopefully there'll be a trailer sometime soon that I can comment on.
Interested to read the script now though.
CHUD
Jake will appear in the Taylor Swift-Kanye West porno parody:
This is truly the gift that keeps on giving. Not only is Vivid Entertainment cooking up a ridiculous porno based on Kanye West and Taylor Swift’s ongoing feud, but now a source at the adult video giant reveals to HollywoodLife.com exclusively that Taylor’s current (and former) squeezes will also be incorporated! Yes, Jake Gyllenhaal, Joe Jonas, John Mayer and Taylor Lautner (look-alikes) will all get screen-time in the XXX masterpiece.
Hollywood Life
Great news!
It must have something to do with Source Code screening.
That, and this Swifty thing is making him look like a fool. He can't be oblivious to that.
Yes, Jake Gyllenhaal, Joe Jonas, John Mayer and Taylor Lautner (look-alikes) will all get screen-time in the XXX masterpiece.
Congrats, Jake! What distinguished company in such a distinguished project.
^^I hope they all have good attorneys, including the video co. ;)
Driving them out of business sounds like fun. ;)
Into Chapter 7, 11 or any number of lucky numbers.
Maybe Taylor decided she doesn't want to have a fauxmance with Jake anymore. Or if Jake is in London (he is, right?), maybe if DL rumor was true, Henry Cavill blew him off or was otherwise occupied.
Would that account for the grumpy mood? ;)
As disgusting as that sounds, I'm not sure you can stop a parody.
Maybe if Taylor, or the others don't want their image tarnished - maybe with the clout of Disney behind them, who knows. ;)
Jake can't always be 'on', he's human too.
Of course, that's true. Unusual for him to let it show in a press conference for a movie, though.
Too bad it is probably a mainstream porno, otherwise maybe "Jake" would get it on with one of the other guys.
Maybe he has gas, is bored or is tired of the over-promotion of this.
or is tired of the over-promotion of this.
idk, there doesn't seem to be as much promo for this as there was for PoP, at least not yet.
I'm curious about this press conference now, wonder when we'll see video clips.
You think Anne knows that Jake's gay?
Then they've got the record companies' clout too, as well as Disney. I don't think porno is always protected by the 1st amendment, and there has to be an actual "work" to parody, not just an individual. Of course, the attorneys could always tie it up in litigation indefinitely. Ah, good times. :)
and there has to be an actual "work" to parody, not just an individual.
This is why it was stupid for West and Swifty to keep milking that stupid jackass move he made for publicity. He wrote a song about it and so did she.
Taylor Swift certainly wants to be free to trash her exes - by name even - in her songs, though, doesn't she? All in the name of her art of course ;)
It's not the same - and unless the vid co is planning on distributing the porno for free (just for the benefit of society of course) then they can be challenged. Plus, you can't use the "work" without permission.
