When The World Was Young
Heath Ledger and unknown boy, 1988
Ah, the apple trees, Blossoms in the breeze, That we walked among, Lying in the hay, Games we used to play, While the rounds were sung, Only yesterday, when the world was young.
We had only another 10 minutes, and there were some things I needed to talk to him about. For starters, Jake has rarely talked publicly about Heath Ledger’s death. I wasn’t sure if I’d get anything out of him, but I had to ask.
“A year ago, Entertainment Weekly spoke to a lot of people for a piece about Heath Ledger. The screenwriter, producer and cinematographer of Brokeback Mountain all talked. You were conspicuously absent. Are you uncomfortable remembering him in public?”
“Yes,” he said, pausing. “Brokeback was painful. Any time you go into pain, I don’t think you necessarily want to go back. But the results of that film, and how the public responded to it so hugely, were worth it. Walking through any kind of pain is usually worth it. As close as we all became making that movie, for all those other people, it didn’t extend much farther than [the movie itself], so that experience of work could be easily talked about for publications. The experience Heath and I had was also shared publicly with all the press and publicity we did. But what we shared as friends, though I respect the interest that so many people have in the mourning and grieving process and how it feels to other people, I feel like — and I don’t mean this in an unkind way — but I don’t think it’s anybody’s business but his and mine. So in that sense, to really respect him — and also the way he felt about his life and his private life and what he cared about, because he was a deeply caring and loving human being — every time anybody asks me any question about him, it would be like he was sitting next to me, and I know he would roll his eyes, because that’s the way he was. It was between us.”
If we didn’t talk about anything else, I knew I had something of consequence. And I was confident that what Jake had just said was as far and as deep and as sincere as he could go with this — you could feel the anguish in his words. So I moved on.

Jake losing his dear friend makes him someone who has a lot of life experience and he will put his sad emotions into his acting. He believed he could have done more to help Heath Ledger and prevent what had happened but he should not feel that way. I don’t know if Jake knew what Michelle Williams was doing with her lawyers going after Heath but even if he did he couldn’t stop it. She is scum. The main scums who should have called 911 are that masseuse and Mary Kate. I believe that masseuse knew much sooner than she was willing to admit that the paramedics should have been called and Heath Ledger would be with all of us today.
Actually, the main scums are the people who saw Heath deteriorate and did nothing to encourage him to go to rehab, take time off, stop taking drugs and partying. (Mary Kate would fall into this bracket but she has a lot of company). These are the people who enabled him--they're the main scums.
And lastly, Heath was no innocent here--he should have recognized that he needed help and thought about Matilda, being around to see her grow up. My brother was an addict too and what really helped clean him up was the realization that if he didn't, he wouldn't be around to see my nephews (his reason for living) grow up.
How do you know nobody tried to get Heath to get help? Have you ever known someone with problems? You can talk until you're blue in the face, but it's not going to to do any good if the person who has problems refuses to get help. Happens all the time. and if a person truly doesn't want to change, getting help does absolutely no good--look at Lohan.

Yes, Lohan was hanging around him, Mary-Kate Olsen and all sorts of scum. I guess partying with scum was more important to him than cleaning himself up for his daughter's sake.

^^ Wow, Jake must feel like crap that LAOD did so poorly. Where is the difference between NSA and LAOD?
Jake must realize that not even dating Dunst, Witherspoon and now maybe or maybe not Swift will change his b.o. appeal, if he thinks that anyway. Look at Natalie, she didn't need any PR crap, she did it all herself and look where she is now.
To the person who saw No Strings, is it a better romcom than LAOD and will it receive better wom than LAOD? What do you think? On RT the audience rating is 74% for LAOD only 49%.
Taylor strikes me as the kind of girl who insists on relationship port-mortems to “learn from our mistakes” or “brainstorm words that rhyme with ‘Gyllenhaal’ for my inevitable song about you.” Chilling shawl? Will enthrall? Killing call!
Check out Anne Hathaway's box office history, even a crap movie like Bride Wars made some decent cash domestically and internationally together. She has actually a solid box office history. I think she'll think twice before working with Jake again. Jake, for a good looking, charming and solid actor, it's really surprising that he seems to be box office poison. We all know that Source Code will end up like LAOD. I think it's maybe good for Jake to take a break from acting for a while and rethink his career. Maybe do more supporting roles and more real indie movies?
LAOD has made a Foreign Total as of Jan. 16: $34,137,000.
Total gross around 66 Mio.
Please, as if that is much. This movie is a flop, like all his others. BBM was a success because of the enormous buzz. Jake mistook that as him being a draw. Now he has seen that he is not. If he wants to stay in the public eye and can't with his movies, maybe it's better to follow Dunsts, Witherspoons and Swifts for a little attention. He is pathetic. I bet you his sister is ashamed of him even though she as a sis probably supports some of his moves. Either way, she has a good career w/o any need of publicity.
Doesn't matter. Jake is the main topic. This blog has more business than any other Jake fansite or blogs. General audieces probably don't care, neither for his career nor his personal life, that's why he has to spice it up with yet another fake blonde starlet to get some attention. He became a sad individual, no wonder he just hangs out with d-lister Philipps and her c-lister screen writer hubby. He should be honored that someone like Natalie still hangs out with him, albeit it seems only occasionally.
You are bitter, because he is failing on all accounts, no matter if you believe he's gay or straight. He became a failure. The MOST interesting thing about him, if you read reader comments on blogs, is his sexuality. No movies, charity etc., but his sexuality. If followers who are mainly interested in his sexuality and private life lose interest, he'll have even less people who give a fuck about him.
Jake like Josh harnett are not BO draws, his career reminds me of Harnett's.
The same With O. Bloom, he was lucky with LOTzr at POzTC only because he wasn't the star. LOTR was based on a beloved book with a cast of thousands and POTC was based on a Disney ride and Depp was the star.
Kingdom of Heaven was Bloom's Pop, and Elizabethtown was a flop. look how he disappeared after that. Blooms name was attached to Pop before Jake's, I guess he sensed another failure.
Natalie's movie NSA is benefiting from the BS buzz and the fact that it was the only new movie released this weekend.
Re. Heath. I've always had mixed feelings towards him. But what I respected was his acting talent and realistic pov regarding Hollywood and his career. He wasn't a B.O. draw either, but I think later in his career he didn't even want to. I remember a comment by Heath saying that BBM was a hit because of the buzz surrounding it. He was not delusional (like, I believe, his co-star). I respected that. What I wasn't a fan of were the reports of partying and womanizing ways even while in a serious relationship with a woman. What I know is that often when I saw pictures of him and Michelle they looked miserable together, very differnt to his pics with Naomi Watts. I can't claim to know what went on in his life and his relationship with Michelle, but Mr. Gilliam gave me an idea, even though people are torn whether to believe him or not, I tend to believe him.
This all said, TDK would have made Heath a star, he was again dating a hot, young model, had a healthy child... his future looked so bright. :(
12:34, NSA is a better rom-com than LAOD because NSA KNOWs it's a rom-com and sticks pretty much exclusively to that genre whereas LAOD did know what it was and pretensions of being something greater than its parts.
Natalie and Ashton have a kind of awkward chemistry--they're sweet together and have a nice rapport. They're not as "hot" as Anne and Jake (and their scenes aren't nearly as sexy or provocative) BUT their characters are a hundred times more sympathetic, likable and relatable. She's playing a good girl and he's playing a good guy--they're neither sleazy nor desperate. (I know Anne's character had a reason to act that way but other than her great boobs, I didn't understand why Jake was so interested in her considering what a one-dimensional bitch she was--here in NSA Natalie is a commitment-phobe but she's not a bitch)
Also, there's no sleazy brother--the two are surrounded by a greek chorus of friends but they're by and large well written and well played by good actors like Greta Gerwig, Ludacris, among others. Even Kevin Kline, a great actor, plays Ashton's fading TV idol father.
Bloom was offered the role of Dastan and he turned it down, it's not a secret. The BS about Newell wanting him for the part is BS, he wasn't even attached to the project when they were casting the lead, I think Michael Bay was.
Jake was on a short list of actors that included Bloom, Ben Barnes and James McVoy.
It would n=make sense that Bruckheimer wanted Bloom considering he was in POTC.
3:13-3:14 I know you think you are intelligent but really you are as thick as 3 planks if you think you can't tell which anon is which and who posts what. You all have a certain style in common (nasty) when commenting . Also please prove me wrong about ONTD.
My job is to call people and pitch the brand of make-up my company sells. I call and an obviously really young girl answers the phone.
Little Girl: “Hello?” Me: “Hi, may I talk to the lady of this residence?” Little Girl: “That’s me.” Me: “I mean, may I talk to your mom?” Little Girl: “I have two dads.” Me: “Oh well, never mind then. Have a nice day!” Little Girl: “Wait! Why did you call?” Me: “I’m selling make-up.” Little Girl: “Oh! One of my daddies loves that stuff. It makes him look pretty when he goes dancing! Let me give him the phone! Dad! Dad! Some girl wants to make you look pretty!”
you are as thick as 3 planks if you think you can't tell which anon is which and who posts what.
Of course you are right 3:26pm. So are you saying that the other 3.3 million unique visitors per month to Just Jared have never left a comment about Jake bearding/being gay etc?
The thickness of your proverbial planks far exceeds three.
Surprised No Strings Attached did so well. The trailers are AWFUL. At least Anne and Jake have chemistry. Asston Kutcher? Now that he has a hit on his hands, he'll probably be referred to as "A-list." Another competitor for Jake.
I can only surmise that NSA did well because of Natalie's recent buzz. I expect it sucks, way beyond.
Doesn't matter. Jake is the main topic. This blog has more business than any other Jake fansite or blogs.
I love this blog. It's always been the badboy and it's virtually the only thing that keeps Jake internet interest kicking.
The same bitter posters that spew their venom here go to JJ/Perez etc and copy/paste into the comments of those sites.
But then that supposes you are some saint who moves across ALL these sites too. Who knows what YOU are posting where - since you seem to be everywhere and accusing others of the same.
You might as well just stop the nonsense and admit you are as bad as everyone else.
The female leads in Source Code are not big draws so this movie will rest firmly on Jakes shoulders. Nothing to hide.
Right, and we all know how it's most likely gonna turn out. Early rumor of the film having problems is lingering and the not too promising trailer isn't a good sign either.
4:19, have you seen NSA? I did. It doesn't suck. It's better than LAOD (which I thought was a mess and very offensive and in poor taste). Ashton is surprisingly good. I couldn't believe it. He really can act. That's the revelation of the film and he works well with Natalie.
Maggie is not that bad. She was cute in Secretary. I've watched some interviwes for Crazy Heart and thought she was very cute. She seems nice too. IDG all the hate, really not.
What does Jake's box office have to do with you all waiting for Toothy. Seems to be you and Ted C have proven the Hollywood suits correct. All these gay rumors have hurt him and his box office appeal. Because of people like you Jake has no reason to come out. You have accomplished the opposite of what you wanted. Jake if he ever comes out will be a D lister.
He's box office failure, you should all be happy now. It really does not matter if he comes out now because a Dlist out actor doesn't mean shit to the gay movement you all pretend to care about.
Hey I'm not embarassed to say I love the Nanny McPhee movies! Maggie was really cute in the sequel!
I'm planning on seeing Nanny McPhee. It's gotten good reviews. And yes, Maggie IS a cute woman. Very cute. Most don't see it, because they hate her too much. She's also a decent, watchable actress imo.
9:17 PM - you think the gay rumors "hurt" him? I think it's rather his faible for attaching himself to very famous women and being featured in tabloids so often and of course his movie decisions weren't wise or he just isn't lucky with his movies anymore. It happens. Happened to Josh Hartnett, Orlando Blum etc. If someone like DiCaprio, Clooney or even Franco came out, now that would get attention. With Jake there are so, so many rumors that, I think, it'd hardly be a surprise and hardly anyone would care except for TBers. His star is falling, rapidly.
"Hey I'm not embarassed to say I love the Nanny McPhee movies! Maggie was really cute in the sequel!'
Now thats a Gyllenhaal with box office appeal, oh wait that movie was on dvd before it came to America box office. But yet you all seem to adore her. No strings and these other movies you all compare Jake's movies to won't get him out of the closet any sooner. So whats the point of comparing the box office numbers. Do you think if jake comes out he will be a bigger box office draw in the states? Hollywood would not touch him if he came out. And not because he's gay but because America doesn't support liars. Druggies, drunks and some out gays yes but never liars. By Jake having all these high profile relationships, Jake has placed himself in a bad spot. If he suddenly comes out he will be seen as a liar and a user of women. A coward hiding behnind women and doing God knows what sexually why lying to these women. Do you thin his so called beards would jump to his defense. I think not. So coming out is not an option whether he's a box office failure or box office draw.
IF you think Jake coming out will make him the gay messiah, keep praying. He won't even be up there with a Lance Bass.
Oh sit down and stfu, fanboys. She was fine! Really though who cares if she was or not anyway? She was not the selling point of the movie. Her face wasn't on the movie posters/ magazines/ t-shirts. It was all Batman/Joker/Two-Face
Then you and this blog have gotten your wish. Because you have to admit, the theme of this blog is to see Jake do poorly as long as he stays in the closet. Again his coming out will not make his star rise again. So you will have just another gay guy who used to do movies. But at least Jake will have the respect of this blog's members. So it will be worth it.
Then you and this blog have gotten your wish. Because you have to admit, the theme of this blog is to see Jake do poorly as long as he stays in the closet
This argument is the problem with Jake's career. No doubt, those lettuce eating rodents who still make their comfortable livings spinning their tales about Straight Jake are probably still spoon feeding the guy this easily digestable pablum. Jake's career has tanked because of HIS decisions. HIS performances. HIS lack of imagination and unwillingness to see that what people always liked about Jake was HIMSELF. It wasn't the fans, it was his handlers and "advisors" who convinced him to sell out. That he couldn't be himself and have a successful career. They transformed him into a caricature of what they thought a movie star looked like. Unfortunately, there's no longer any flesh on the bones or blood in his veins. Just a shallow, unapproachable publicity whore. At least, that is what he has been presenting to the public since he entered the closet in 2007.
I'm sure he's the same sweet, kindhearted and charming guy with his friends and family. But, he isn't with the public. The problem is you can't have any kind of career with that kind of disdain for your customers. And, in civilian terms that is what Jake's audiences are. Jake walks around on eggshells now because he allowed himself to be put into a position of weakness. Afraid of what people will ask. Afraid of what people might say or do. Fear is never a becoming attire. It eats at your guts and transforms who you are.
Bull. Thee are tons of closeted actors in HW and GW and paps know they are bearding and in the closet like Clooney. You wouldn't believe how many people my Moms age or older think that Clooney is gay and it hasn't damaged his appeal.
Jake is and always has been in the same category as O. Bloom, Harnett, R. Phillipe, etc. Lazy, mediocre actors that are not willing to challange themselves.
It's not fear, it's boredom. No one cares about him anymore and what's left of his online fandom is a joke. He needs to go back to school like Franco or start a band like Joseph-Gordon Levitt and Gosling or get his production co in gear like the rest of his peers, even Bloom was able to produce a mocie from his company. Jake has nothong to fear because no one cares. He parrots words that sound like they camre from his PR and before that I suspect his parents "coached" him on what to say.
Jake is lazy and a famewhore, always g=has been. Check out the photo-ops on IHJ of Jake and Kiki. Yes they seem natural and less posed then the later ops, but they are the same pics of him with the it girl of the moment, the same ole schtick.
I disagree that Jake is lazy. Prior to 2006 he worked constantly. Look at imdb from 2001-2005. Eleven movies AND a critically acclaimed play in which he won an Outstanding Newcomer award. Yes, Jake started bearding with Kiki in 2002, but he worked his butt off the whole time. Something changed in late 2006 and I think that something was wanting to raise a family in the closet. That's when the Reeke crap started to be floated on the Rendition set. Jake was always in the closet, but it was more a glass one and he regularly made self- deprecating and provocative jokes that skirted the edges. He's in a deep closet now and doesn't want anything gay to even touch the hem of his shirt. I agree with 10:16 that Jake is responsible for the choices he's made. It's not blogs, fans or Brokeback Mountain that are to blame for where he finds himself now.
So who's his boyfriend now because it clearly hasn't been Austin--at least not for awhile?
I believe Austin and Jake are still together. Jake actually even made a point of being photographed with Nichols after the premiere of PoP in late May (with Austin's beard pushed into the background) and the OMG crowd discovered a photograph of him with Jake in Leadville back in late August. Evidently, one of the runners at the event, put it on the blog and no one noticed Austin until October. There's a few naysayers who say that isn't him, but the pic is pretty clear.
^ I meant the blogger put the photograph on his blog. Not OMG's blog. The photo circulated on several sites because it was out there before Jake's people could stop it.
He's in a deep closet now and doesn't want anything gay to even touch the hem of his shirt. I agree with 10:16 that Jake is responsible for the choices he's made.
Boy, you know what's so ironic about this statement? Jake is considered to be gay by more people now than he ever was before he went into a deep closet. Even during the press for Brokeback Mountain, I don't remember people openly talking about Jake being gay. Sometimes I would hear that folks thought he might play for both teams, but not constant buzz about him being a liar and hypocrite. Or, constantly pointing out that he was an obvious tabloid phony who's just desperately trying to push himself as being straight. People aren't as stupid as Hollywood elites think they are.
Totally agree with the posts by 10:16, 11:14 and 11:41.
Jake hurt his career by taking bad advice from his people--pushing for the big movies they thought would make him an A-list star, instead of doing the things he was really good at. Then Reeke hurt him with his fans, and his being so afraid of showing anything of himself.
Jake killed all the things that made people interested in him and love him after BBM.
OT, I was talking to a couple of friends tonight who are avid film buffs. I haven't read anything, but they said that Zachary Quinto and that movie he produced is getting incredible buzz at Sundance.
A fair number of fans still thought Jake was straight until the Swift photo ops. So blatantly staged that his gayness and bearding could no longer be ignored.
he isn't lazy and he is a good actor that is the truth, like it or not. When I read comment about anne not wanting to act with him anymore make me really angry and desperate to see so must stupidity here. I know a lot take pleasure to bash him but sometimes it's just free hate and that just sound so pathetic.
"Why would Anne want to associate herself with another guaranteed flop?"
Jake isn't responsable, the movie wasn't as good as expected for sure but their both performances were great. Anne has'nt been successful with all the movie she made either.
besides people don't do movie for stars anymore, the "tourist" case show that, if the movie is crap public don't go for it.
One minute they claim that only TBs think Jake is gay (3:08 PM), next they claim "gay rumors have hurt him and his box office appeal", playing stupid about YEARS of bearding and "Jake is heterosexual" media and tabloid publicity.
James "maybe I'm just gay" Franco rarely involves himself in unimaginative and dull projects. His latest artistic endeavor, which debuted at the Sundance Film Festival last night, held true to that type of consistency and, in celebration, Franco donned a blond wig and belted out a few tunes. ... In the crowded room, as celebrities like Eliza Dushku, Rick Fox, and original Three's Company alum Richard "Larry Dallas" Kline looked on, Franco and performance artist Kalup Linzy (also wigging out) belted out "Chewing Gum," a song from their arty band Kalup and Franco with lyrics like "This ain't no chewing gum" and "You're just a fuck, you hot mess." Franco also sang the Three's Company theme song during his art exhibit.
I, for one, can't wait to see it. Watch a short clip of the screening from last night:
he isn't lazy and he is a good actor that is the truth, like it or not
Jake is lazy and stupid. While his competition like Jake Franco prepares for Sundance Film Festival, Jake is after more tabloid stories and "straight" publicity.

LOL @ Jake Franco, but IA. See, I don't find Franco to be a better actor than Jake, but that man works hard and his ass off, something Jake doesn't, instead seems more interested in tabloid crap.
If you ask me, the best young actor is Gosling, hands down. But unlike Franco he is not as conventionally handsome to become a mainstream star. JMO.
Gosling is the best young actor of his generation, I agree. He may not be conventionally handsome like Franco or Jake but---have you seen Blue Valentine?--he's VERY hot. I was shocked by how hot I found him. Whoa!
I think Ryan's butt is a little too big. :D I don't think Jake is conventionally good looking either. He's more good looking than Gosling (obviously), but Franco is def. a conventionally good looking guy. With Ryan and Jake (to a lesser extent), I was like why do people find them attractive, but then I saw it with Jake. With Franco it's kinda really obvious. That said, I'm not a big Franco fan. But I appreciate his work ethic.
What keeps Jake from being conventionally good looking is his longish face. Ang Lee said it was difficult to shoot Jake, he needed to find the right angle.
And he should stop wearing full beards, stubble is good, but a full beard makes him look older and less attractive. I get he wants to be taken seriously and thinks a beard will do, but good work and staying out of tabloids would be the much better method. ;)
If you look at the LAX pics Jake is smirking-like he's saying mission accomplished. I agree that he should put more effort into his career instead of showmances and photo ops. After the whole Swift thing and now the 2 day Nashville trip, most of the Internet can't even take him seriously. I think it's ashame that an actor who I thought was so good looking, charming and talented has become a parody of himself. I hope he doesn't further embrarass himself by following Swift all over during her tour. That would make him look even more pathetic.
If you look at the LAX pics Jake is smirking-like he's saying mission accomplished
Or the paps taking his picture could have been saying something to him causing him to smirk. Either way, we don't know do we? Just speculation and projection.
"Poor trolls, they have no arguments so insulting posters is all they can do."
Oh poor TB bloger , insulted by "stupid" troll ouch bad bad! bashing jake don't hide who you are for real: just as pathetic as him!even more. The truth is always awful, ted said so !
now you can delete censurjackie if that relieve you.
I think Jake doesn't realize it. Maybe he thinks being in tabloids shows his status in Hollywood...that he made it. That people are interested in him. Maybe.

Please, Jake had proven extremely well that he stay out of sight when he wants too. He left LA and went to Nashville and there wasn't any pics. He spent Dec in NYC and there were no pap pics. Jake is only "caught" in pap pics when he wants to be. Also the above post was stated as a supposition, not as a fact.
I must admit that Natalie and Ashton look good togher. What bothered me about Jake and Anne is that Anne is just too tall for Jake. Jake is tall enough with 6 feet, but Anne looks better with a guy who is 6 feet 2 for instance. I like it when a woman is petite and a guy tall. Ashton and Natalie is a cute combo.

Jake has a movie to promote and the beard is working - PR changed their minds and decided to continue with 5-6 months of "keep them guessing" bullshit?
Perhaps they aren't pap pics, but taken by a fan/passerby. They look like stills from a camera phone video. Then again, maybe that's what we are supposed to think lol.
I especially liked these comments because I feel the same way:
If they happened to be the celebrity couple I ran into on the street, I'd be so pissed. I would just like, stare, and be like, "What are you doing? Why aren't you other people?"
I would probably yell to Jake: "LOOK AT YOUR LIFE! LOOK AT YOUR CHOICES!"
Love the photo of the alien that looks like Swift.
"Anyone speaks Portuguese? Jake answers questions about the chin and Swift Beard: IHJ - Criativa (Brazil) scans"
Translation:
Question: Does it bother you that the press reported everything about your romance with Reese Witherspoon?
Jake: I felt like people were always in the middle (laughs). The tabloids gave the impression of following every one of our steps. Do you think I should thank them for all the attention?
Question: And now? Does it bother you paparazzi constantly following you and Taylor Swift (the singer he is dating since last October)?
Jake: I can say that I am living one day at a time.
Most posters here think Jake is gay and hiding his sexuality while bearding. Some say it's because of the "showmances??". Most are here because of Ted's (blind Items which points to Jake, which also started off saying Jake was bisexual). Some are here because they intuitively think he's hiding something, his sexuality.
Well I was also interested in Ted's rumors and followed them until I had a flash of reality and started to think for myself and see how some of his reason and other sh-t sounded just like "for entertainment purposes only". Although, In the beginning of followning JG I felt something was different about him just as most do, this did peak my interest.
Since then I have heard of many Hollywood young and old male stars who are in the closet. I believe some, I know this does and can happen, I also know there is more than what we see and more to these things than we know.
So many of the men, especially the young one's with the rumors have gotten married and some have a child or children now. (Orlando Bloom - Many rumors of he and the guy from LOTR) Both married with kids. I know the rationale that they can still be in the closet, True.
But, Some may not be and it can just be rumors! Also, Some can be bi-sexual men, young and old who don't want to, or will not come out as bisexual. In the closet bisexuals. LOL It happens Wayyyy more than the avaerage person realizes.
There will always be those who will considered these men as gay no matter what, and I think this is part of some of what we have seen with these guy, maybe Jake. Most of these guys will have girlfriends and maybe get married with children. So you will see them with the opposite sex and if attention points towards anything other than straightness, they will (act out) as being nothing other.
Point is, most of the stars with gay rumors are probably bisexual to some degree. Yes, some are Gay and some might be totally str8.
I see Jake as probably being bi with no interest in speaking on it openly, NOW. Then going the route of most like him. Even Heath Ledger briefly had some bi rumors. Most of the truly (totally GAY) - (Matt Bonner and guy from Heros and Star Trek) stars will stay single and live in plain site. And, they don't and Won't speak on it!
We had only another 10 minutes, and there were some things I needed to talk to him about. For starters, Jake has rarely talked publicly about Heath Ledger’s death. I wasn’t sure if I’d get anything out of him, but I had to ask.
ReplyDelete“A year ago, Entertainment Weekly spoke to a lot of people for a piece about Heath Ledger. The screenwriter, producer and cinematographer of Brokeback Mountain all talked. You were conspicuously absent. Are you uncomfortable remembering him in public?”
“Yes,” he said, pausing. “Brokeback was painful. Any time you go into pain, I don’t think you necessarily want to go back. But the results of that film, and how the public responded to it so hugely, were worth it. Walking through any kind of pain is usually worth it. As close as we all became making that movie, for all those other people, it didn’t extend much farther than [the movie itself], so that experience of work could be easily talked about for publications. The experience Heath and I had was also shared publicly with all the press and publicity we did. But what we shared as friends, though I respect the interest that so many people have in the mourning and grieving process and how it feels to other people, I feel like — and I don’t mean this in an unkind way — but I don’t think it’s anybody’s business but his and mine. So in that sense, to really respect him — and also the way he felt about his life and his private life and what he cared about, because he was a deeply caring and loving human being — every time anybody asks me any question about him, it would be like he was sitting next to me, and I know he would roll his eyes, because that’s the way he was. It was between us.”
If we didn’t talk about anything else, I knew I had something of consequence. And I was confident that what Jake had just said was as far and as deep and as sincere as he could go with this — you could feel the anguish in his words. So I moved on.

ReplyDeleteJake losing his dear friend makes him someone who has a lot of life experience and he will put his sad emotions into his acting. He believed he could have done more to help Heath Ledger and prevent what had happened but he should not feel that way. I don’t know if Jake knew what Michelle Williams was doing with her lawyers going after Heath but even if he did he couldn’t stop it. She is scum. The main scums who should have called 911 are that masseuse and Mary Kate. I believe that masseuse knew much sooner than she was willing to admit that the paramedics should have been called and Heath Ledger would be with all of us today.
ReplyDeleteActually, the main scums are the people who saw Heath deteriorate and did nothing to encourage him to go to rehab, take time off, stop taking drugs and partying. (Mary Kate would fall into this bracket but she has a lot of company). These are the people who enabled him--they're the main scums.
ReplyDeleteAnd lastly, Heath was no innocent here--he should have recognized that he needed help and thought about Matilda, being around to see her grow up. My brother was an addict too and what really helped clean him up was the realization that if he didn't, he wouldn't be around to see my nephews (his reason for living) grow up.

ReplyDelete10:14 AM - stop making up shit about Michelle, we know she's a good person.
ReplyDeleteHow do you know nobody tried to get Heath to get help? Have you ever known someone with problems? You can talk until you're blue in the face, but it's not going to to do any good if the person who has problems refuses to get help. Happens all the time. and if a person truly doesn't want to change, getting help does absolutely no good--look at Lohan.

Wow, Jake must feel like crap that LAOD did so poorly. Where is the difference between NSA and LAOD?
It's maybe that US audiences don't want to see Jake in theaters?
ReplyDeleteI have fallen madly in love with The King's Speech. :)
ReplyDeleteJake must realize that not even dating Dunst, Witherspoon and now maybe or maybe not Swift will change his b.o. appeal, if he thinks that anyway. Look at Natalie, she didn't need any PR crap, she did it all herself and look where she is now.
ReplyDeleteTo the person who saw No Strings, is it a better romcom than LAOD and will it receive better wom than LAOD? What do you think?
ReplyDeleteOn RT the audience rating is 74% for LAOD only 49%.
Taylor strikes me as the kind of girl who insists on relationship port-mortems to “learn from our mistakes” or “brainstorm words that rhyme with ‘Gyllenhaal’ for my inevitable song about you.” Chilling shawl? Will enthrall? Killing call!
ReplyDelete:)
ReplyDeleteCheck out Anne Hathaway's box office history, even a crap movie like Bride Wars made some decent cash domestically and internationally together. She has actually a solid box office history.
ReplyDeleteI think she'll think twice before working with Jake again.
Jake, for a good looking, charming and solid actor, it's really surprising that he seems to be box office poison. We all know that Source Code will end up like LAOD. I think it's maybe good for Jake to take a break from acting for a while and rethink his career. Maybe do more supporting roles and more real indie movies?
The only people and "fan goup" who really cares about Jake are TBers, but much less for his films rather about his personal life.
ReplyDeleteIt's kind of sad.
LAOD has made a Foreign Total as of Jan. 16: $34,137,000.
ReplyDeleteTotal gross around 66 Mio.
I think she'll think twice before working with Jake again.
ReplyDeleteIf they do another movie together, Jake will call it "the grandchild of Brokeback"!
...but much less for his films rather about his personal life
ReplyDeleteJake doing 2.451 photo ops with beards during last 3 years is about his work and movies!
Total gross around 66 Mio.
ReplyDeleteThat should cover LAOD production costs, they will very likely manage to cover marketing costs too.
LAOD has made a Foreign Total as of Jan. 16: $34,137,000.

Please, as if that is much. This movie is a flop, like all his others. BBM was a success because of the enormous buzz. Jake mistook that as him being a draw. Now he has seen that he is not. If he wants to stay in the public eye and can't with his movies, maybe it's better to follow Dunsts, Witherspoons and Swifts for a little attention. He is pathetic. I bet you his sister is ashamed of him even though she as a sis probably supports some of his moves. Either way, she has a good career w/o any need of publicity.
I think it's maybe good for Jake to take a break from acting for a while and rethink his career.
ReplyDeleteLooks like Jake cares more about being in tabloids.
He should come out of the closet - that would be better for his career (compared to now) and for his mental health.
ReplyDeleteLOL, UV has up the picture of Jake with Matt Damon with a caption saying that maybe Matt is pitching a project to Jake.
ReplyDeleteAs if.
One of the babblers, bless her heart, is quite vocal with her complaints about Jake in Nashville with Taylor, much to the other babbler's annoyance.
Looks like Jake cares more about being in tabloids.
ReplyDeleteIDK, could it be that he is borderline retarded?
He should come out of the closet - that would be better for his career (compared to now) and for his mental health.
ReplyDeleteComing out or not in his case is irrelevant, he's just not a b.o. draw.
Coming out (also generally speaking) for mental health, I agree with.
Look at closet cases Cruise and Travola, they had amazing careers in their hey day. Careers that Jake can only dream of as of now.
Is this a "fan" blog? LOL!!
ReplyDelete1:28 PM - LOL at you, what are you doing here it you are Jake's fan?
ReplyDeleteThanks for your "LOL" <3
ReplyDeleteIs this a "fan" blog? LOL!!
ReplyDeleteDoesn't matter. Jake is the main topic. This blog has more business than any other Jake fansite or blogs. General audieces probably don't care, neither for his career nor his personal life, that's why he has to spice it up with yet another fake blonde starlet to get some attention. He became a sad individual, no wonder he just hangs out with d-lister Philipps and her c-lister screen writer hubby. He should be honored that someone like Natalie still hangs out with him, albeit it seems only occasionally.
He should come out of the closet...
ReplyDeleteSometimes I wish someone would out him in a really bad way.
fan nasty!

ReplyDeletebitter hags
ReplyDeleteYou are bitter, because he is failing on all accounts, no matter if you believe he's gay or straight. He became a failure.
The MOST interesting thing about him, if you read reader comments on blogs, is his sexuality. No movies, charity etc., but his sexuality. If followers who are mainly interested in his sexuality and private life lose interest, he'll have even less people who give a fuck about him.
Sometimes I wish someone would out him in a really bad way.
ReplyDeleteHow can anybody be outed when there is nothing to out?.
Dream on. Jake Gyllenhaal is gay as a goose and no amount of beards can hide it.
ReplyDeleteHow can anybody be outed when there is nothing to out?.
ReplyDeleteLOL! He can't be outed because all the internet knows he's gay
Dream on. Jake Gyllenhaal is gay as a goose and no amount of beards can hide it.
ReplyDeleteNaw you are the one in a dream world.
Jake like Josh harnett are not BO draws, his career reminds me of Harnett's.
ReplyDeleteThe same With O. Bloom, he was lucky with LOTzr at POzTC only because he wasn't the star. LOTR was based on a beloved book with a cast of thousands and POTC was based on a Disney ride and Depp was the star.
Kingdom of Heaven was Bloom's Pop, and Elizabethtown was a flop. look how he disappeared after that. Blooms name was attached to Pop before Jake's, I guess he sensed another failure.
Natalie's movie NSA is benefiting from the BS buzz and the fact that it was the only new movie released this weekend.

So 2:06, do you think Swyll is/was a real hetero relationship?
ReplyDelete2:09 PM #2 - No, even troll isn't stupid enough to claim that Jake really dated Taylor Swift, LMAO!
ReplyDeleteHow do you know it wasn't/isn't?.
ReplyDeleteBTW "Jackie" why do you delete willy nilly.
Willy's ok, but trolls get deleted
ReplyDeleteRe. Heath. I've always had mixed feelings towards him. But what I respected was his acting talent and realistic pov regarding Hollywood and his career. He wasn't a B.O. draw either, but I think later in his career he didn't even want to. I remember a comment by Heath saying that BBM was a hit because of the buzz surrounding it. He was not delusional (like, I believe, his co-star). I respected that. What I wasn't a fan of were the reports of partying and womanizing ways even while in a serious relationship with a woman. What I know is that often when I saw pictures of him and Michelle they looked miserable together, very differnt to his pics with Naomi Watts. I can't claim to know what went on in his life and his relationship with Michelle, but Mr. Gilliam gave me an idea, even though people are torn whether to believe him or not, I tend to believe him.
ReplyDeleteThis all said, TDK would have made Heath a star, he was again dating a hot, young model, had a healthy child... his future looked so bright. :(
12:34, NSA is a better rom-com than LAOD because NSA KNOWs it's a rom-com and sticks pretty much exclusively to that genre whereas LAOD did know what it was and pretensions of being something greater than its parts.
ReplyDeleteNatalie and Ashton have a kind of awkward chemistry--they're sweet together and have a nice rapport. They're not as "hot" as Anne and Jake (and their scenes aren't nearly as sexy or provocative) BUT their characters are a hundred times more sympathetic, likable and relatable. She's playing a good girl and he's playing a good guy--they're neither sleazy nor desperate. (I know Anne's character had a reason to act that way but other than her great boobs, I didn't understand why Jake was so interested in her considering what a one-dimensional bitch she was--here in NSA Natalie is a commitment-phobe but she's not a bitch)
Also, there's no sleazy brother--the two are surrounded by a greek chorus of friends but they're by and large well written and well played by good actors like Greta Gerwig, Ludacris, among others. Even Kevin Kline, a great actor, plays Ashton's fading TV idol father.
I meant to write LAOD didn't know what it was.
ReplyDeleteHow do you know it wasn't/isn't?
ReplyDeleteWhat did I tell you? Even trolls won't claim that Jake really dated Swift, they aren't that stupid, lol.

Sure 2:50 PM, we write all those ONTD Jake is gay and bearding comments too! LOL
ReplyDeleteCome on 2:50pm, even you know what you are saying is total BS. LOL!!
ReplyDeleteBloom was offered the role of Dastan and he turned it down, it's not a secret. The BS about Newell wanting him for the part is BS, he wasn't even attached to the project when they were casting the lead, I think Michael Bay was.
ReplyDeleteJake was on a short list of actors that included Bloom, Ben Barnes and James McVoy.
It would n=make sense that Bruckheimer wanted Bloom considering he was in POTC.
The same bitter posters that spew their venom here go to JJ/Perez etc and copy/paste into the comments of those sites.
ReplyDeleteYou wish, 3:01 PM #2.
ReplyDeleteNot a lot people care about Jake, but a lot of those who care or read gossip about him know he's gay.
2:54 you don't get as many as you would like to make out maybe a few gay/bearding but you get that for most actor posts on ONTD.
ReplyDelete2:58 BS LOL, as I said you can tell which anons on here comment on JJ etc.
Please link to an article that says Bloom turned down PoP, he was linked to it yes but was never offered the role.

Surprised No Strings Attached did so well. The trailers are AWFUL. At least Anne and Jake have chemistry. Asston Kutcher? Now that he has a hit on his hands, he'll probably be referred to as "A-list." Another competitor for Jake.
ReplyDeleteI can only surmise that NSA did well because of Natalie's recent buzz. I expect it sucks, way beyond.
Not really, on RT the audience rating is 74% (people who like No Strings Attached).
ReplyDeleteDoesn't matter. Jake is the main topic. This blog has more business than any other Jake fansite or blogs.
ReplyDeleteI love this blog. It's always been the badboy and it's virtually the only thing that keeps Jake internet interest kicking.
The same bitter posters that spew their venom here go to JJ/Perez etc and copy/paste into the comments of those sites.
But then that supposes you are some saint who moves across ALL these sites too. Who knows what YOU are posting where - since you seem to be everywhere and accusing others of the same.
You might as well just stop the nonsense and admit you are as bad as everyone else.
When I'm good, I'm very good. When I'm bad, I'm better.
ReplyDeleteThe female leads in Source Code are not big draws so this movie will rest firmly on Jakes shoulders. Nothing to hide.
ReplyDeleteRight, and we all know how it's most likely gonna turn out. Early rumor of the film having problems is lingering and the not too promising trailer isn't a good sign either.
4:19, have you seen NSA? I did. It doesn't suck. It's better than LAOD (which I thought was a mess and very offensive and in poor taste). Ashton is surprisingly good. I couldn't believe it. He really can act. That's the revelation of the film and he works well with Natalie.
ReplyDeleteAudiences seem to like NSA and it's already a hit. Natalie will probably win an Oscar for BS as well. I'd say a very successful year for her.
ReplyDeleteI've taught her all she knows!
ReplyDeleteThe Dark Knight is on TNT right now.
ReplyDeleteI can't get over how amazing Heath was as the Joker. That is putting your heart and soule into a role, like he did for Brokeback.
ReplyDelete^^soul
ReplyDeleteI'm sure Anne and Tom Hardy will be just as brilliant.
ReplyDeleteAnne maybe, but Tom Hardy? I saw Inception and I didn't think he was anything special. Leo did the best work in the movie.
ReplyDeleteThey may be really great, but Heath's Joker? One of the greatest villians in movie history, imho
ReplyDeleteHow did Maggie G end up in TDK? Seriously--two hot guys are in love with her?
ReplyDeleteEh. Maggie's ok. She was a hell of alot better than Katie Holmes. Thank Xenu for that
ReplyDeleteMaggie is not that bad. She was cute in Secretary. I've watched some interviwes for Crazy Heart and thought she was very cute. She seems nice too. IDG all the hate, really not.
ReplyDeleteHey I'm not embarassed to say I love the Nanny McPhee movies! Maggie was really cute in the sequel!
ReplyDeleteGreat interview for Crazy Heart. I think she is pretty.
ReplyDeleteYoutube
What does Jake's box office have to do with you all waiting for Toothy. Seems to be you and Ted C have proven the Hollywood suits correct. All these gay rumors have hurt him and his box office appeal. Because of people like you Jake has no reason to come out. You have accomplished the opposite of what you wanted. Jake if he ever comes out will be a D lister.
ReplyDeleteHe's box office failure, you should all be happy now. It really does not matter if he comes out now because a Dlist out actor doesn't mean shit to the gay movement you all pretend to care about.
Hey I'm not embarassed to say I love the Nanny McPhee movies! Maggie was really cute in the sequel!
ReplyDeleteI'm planning on seeing Nanny McPhee. It's gotten good reviews. And yes, Maggie IS a cute woman. Very cute. Most don't see it, because they hate her too much.
She's also a decent, watchable actress imo.
The fanboys HATED her in TDK.
ReplyDelete9:17 PM - you think the gay rumors "hurt" him?
ReplyDeleteI think it's rather his faible for attaching himself to very famous women and being featured in tabloids so often and of course his movie decisions weren't wise or he just isn't lucky with his movies anymore. It happens. Happened to Josh Hartnett, Orlando Blum etc. If someone like DiCaprio, Clooney or even Franco came out, now that would get attention. With Jake there are so, so many rumors that, I think, it'd hardly be a surprise and hardly anyone would care except for TBers. His star is falling, rapidly.
"Hey I'm not embarassed to say I love the Nanny McPhee movies! Maggie was really cute in the sequel!'
ReplyDeleteNow thats a Gyllenhaal with box office appeal, oh wait that movie was on dvd before it came to America box office. But yet you all seem to adore her. No strings and these other movies you all compare Jake's movies to won't get him out of the closet any sooner. So whats the point of comparing the box office numbers. Do you think if jake comes out he will be a bigger box office draw in the states? Hollywood would not touch him if he came out. And not because he's gay but because America doesn't support liars. Druggies, drunks and some out gays yes but never liars. By Jake having all these high profile relationships, Jake has placed himself in a bad spot. If he suddenly comes out he will be seen as a liar and a user of women. A coward hiding behnind women and doing God knows what sexually why lying to these women. Do you thin his so called beards would jump to his defense. I think not. So coming out is not an option whether he's a box office failure or box office draw.
IF you think Jake coming out will make him the gay messiah, keep praying. He won't even be up there with a Lance Bass.
The fanboys HATED her in TDK.
ReplyDeleteThose are very young men and teenage boys who find someone like Megan Fox hot. Older man, over 30, 40 can appreciate Maggie's unique beauty too.
Oh sit down and stfu, fanboys. She was fine! Really though who cares if she was or not anyway? She was not the selling point of the movie. Her face wasn't on the movie posters/ magazines/ t-shirts. It was all Batman/Joker/Two-Face
ReplyDelete"His star is falling, rapidly'
ReplyDeleteThen you and this blog have gotten your wish. Because you have to admit, the theme of this blog is to see Jake do poorly as long as he stays in the closet. Again his coming out will not make his star rise again. So you will have just another gay guy who used to do movies. But at least Jake will have the respect of this blog's members. So it will be worth it.
The girl was in "The Dark Knight".... she automatically wins!
ReplyDeleteYes but I was _____ by the Joker. So I WIN!
ReplyDeleteBlown?
ReplyDeleteWell, blown up to be exact.
Yes, I was blown by the Joker too.
ReplyDeleteThen you and this blog have gotten your wish. Because you have to admit, the theme of this blog is to see Jake do poorly as long as he stays in the closet
ReplyDeleteThis argument is the problem with Jake's career. No doubt, those lettuce eating rodents who still make their comfortable livings spinning their tales about Straight Jake are probably still spoon feeding the guy this easily digestable pablum. Jake's career has tanked because of HIS decisions. HIS performances. HIS lack of imagination and unwillingness to see that what people always liked about Jake was HIMSELF. It wasn't the fans, it was his handlers and "advisors" who convinced him to sell out. That he couldn't be himself and have a successful career. They transformed him into a caricature of what they thought a movie star looked like. Unfortunately, there's no longer any flesh on the bones or blood in his veins. Just a shallow, unapproachable publicity whore. At least, that is what he has been presenting to the public since he entered the closet in 2007.
I'm sure he's the same sweet, kindhearted and charming guy with his friends and family. But, he isn't with the public. The problem is you can't have any kind of career with that kind of disdain for your customers. And, in civilian terms that is what Jake's audiences are. Jake walks around on eggshells now because he allowed himself to be put into a position of weakness. Afraid of what people will ask. Afraid of what people might say or do. Fear is never a becoming attire. It eats at your guts and transforms who you are.
So who's his boyfriend now because it clearly hasn't been Austin--at least not for awhile?
ReplyDeleteBull. Thee are tons of closeted actors in HW and GW and paps know they are bearding and in the closet like Clooney. You wouldn't believe how many people my Moms age or older think that Clooney is gay and it hasn't damaged his appeal.
ReplyDeleteJake is and always has been in the same category as O. Bloom, Harnett, R. Phillipe, etc. Lazy, mediocre actors that are not willing to challange themselves.
It's not fear, it's boredom. No one cares about him anymore and what's left of his online fandom is a joke.
He needs to go back to school like Franco or start a band like Joseph-Gordon Levitt and Gosling or get his production co in gear like the rest of his peers, even Bloom was able to produce a mocie from his company. Jake has nothong to fear because no one cares. He parrots words that sound like they camre from his PR and before that I suspect his parents "coached" him on what to say.
Jake is lazy and a famewhore, always g=has been. Check out the photo-ops on IHJ of Jake and Kiki. Yes they seem natural and less posed then the later ops, but they are the same pics of him with the it girl of the moment, the same ole schtick.
I disagree that Jake is lazy. Prior to 2006 he worked constantly. Look at imdb from 2001-2005. Eleven movies AND a critically acclaimed play in which he won an Outstanding Newcomer award. Yes, Jake started bearding with Kiki in 2002, but he worked his butt off the whole time. Something changed in late 2006 and I think that something was wanting to raise a family in the closet. That's when the Reeke crap started to be floated on the Rendition set. Jake was always in the closet, but it was more a glass one and he regularly made self- deprecating and provocative jokes that skirted the edges. He's in a deep closet now and doesn't want anything gay to even touch the hem of his shirt. I agree with 10:16 that Jake is responsible for the choices he's made. It's not blogs, fans or Brokeback Mountain that are to blame for where he finds himself now.
ReplyDeleteSo who's his boyfriend now because it clearly hasn't been Austin--at least not for awhile?
ReplyDeleteI believe Austin and Jake are still together. Jake actually even made a point of being photographed with Nichols after the premiere of PoP in late May (with Austin's beard pushed into the background) and the OMG crowd discovered a photograph of him with Jake in Leadville back in late August. Evidently, one of the runners at the event, put it on the blog and no one noticed Austin until October. There's a few naysayers who say that isn't him, but the pic is pretty clear.
^ I meant the blogger put the photograph on his blog. Not OMG's blog. The photo circulated on several sites because it was out there before Jake's people could stop it.
ReplyDeleteHe's in a deep closet now and doesn't want anything gay to even touch the hem of his shirt. I agree with 10:16 that Jake is responsible for the choices he's made.
ReplyDeleteBoy, you know what's so ironic about this statement? Jake is considered to be gay by more people now than he ever was before he went into a deep closet. Even during the press for Brokeback Mountain, I don't remember people openly talking about Jake being gay. Sometimes I would hear that folks thought he might play for both teams, but not constant buzz about him being a liar and hypocrite. Or, constantly pointing out that he was an obvious tabloid phony who's just desperately trying to push himself as being straight. People aren't as stupid as Hollywood elites think they are.
and doing God knows what sexually why lying to these women.
ReplyDeleteWhat is this "God knows what sexually"?
It's called gay sex. Jake has male gay sex, has had it since a teenager, I'm sure. Nothing wrong with that.
And he's not lying to the women/beards. They know he's gay. There's no lying involved there.
Who he is lying to is the public. And to himself.
Totally agree with the posts by 10:16, 11:14 and 11:41.
ReplyDeleteJake hurt his career by taking bad advice from his people--pushing for the big movies they thought would make him an A-list star, instead of doing the things he was really good at. Then Reeke hurt him with his fans, and his being so afraid of showing anything of himself.
Jake killed all the things that made people interested in him and love him after BBM.
OT, I was talking to a couple of friends tonight who are avid film buffs. I haven't read anything, but they said that Zachary Quinto and that movie he produced is getting incredible buzz at Sundance.
ReplyDeleteGood for Quinto, but isn't he another closet case?
ReplyDeletebut isn't he another closet case?
ReplyDeleteI believe it's called the glass closet - you don't see him prancing around with fictional girlfriends like Toothy does.
Well said 10:16 PM. Well said.
ReplyDeleteA fair number of fans still thought Jake was straight until the Swift photo ops. So blatantly staged that his gayness and bearding could no longer be ignored.
he isn't lazy and he is a good actor that is the truth, like it or not. When I read comment about anne not wanting to act with him anymore make me really angry and desperate to see so must stupidity here.
ReplyDeleteI know a lot take pleasure to bash him but sometimes it's just free hate and that just sound so pathetic.
Why would Anne want to associate herself with another guaranteed flop?
ReplyDelete"the gay movement you all pretend to care about."
ReplyDeleteYou know it's the big illusion of this blog: pretending to care about gay right! what a shit
people here aren't even gay, more old bored women I would say!
Anyway I agree jake is over! maybe it' time to look for an other "interesting closet case" to bash.
"Why would Anne want to associate herself with another guaranteed flop?"
ReplyDeleteJake isn't responsable, the movie wasn't as good as expected for sure but their both performances were great. Anne has'nt been successful with all the movie she made either.
besides people don't do movie for stars anymore, the "tourist" case show that, if the movie is crap public don't go for it.
maybe it' time to look for an other "interesting closet case" to bash.
ReplyDeleteBye

ReplyDeleteStill no arguments or something worth saying? I thought so, LOL.
ReplyDeleteTrolls need to make up their minds.
ReplyDeleteOne minute they claim that only TBs think Jake is gay (3:08 PM), next they claim "gay rumors have hurt him and his box office appeal", playing stupid about YEARS of bearding and "Jake is heterosexual" media and tabloid publicity.
James "maybe I'm just gay" Franco rarely involves himself in unimaginative and dull projects. His latest artistic endeavor, which debuted at the Sundance Film Festival last night, held true to that type of consistency and, in celebration, Franco donned a blond wig and belted out a few tunes.
ReplyDelete...
In the crowded room, as celebrities like Eliza Dushku, Rick Fox, and original Three's Company alum Richard "Larry Dallas" Kline looked on, Franco and performance artist Kalup Linzy (also wigging out) belted out "Chewing Gum," a song from their arty band Kalup and Franco with lyrics like "This ain't no chewing gum" and "You're just a fuck, you hot mess." Franco also sang the Three's Company theme song during his art exhibit.
I, for one, can't wait to see it. Watch a short clip of the screening from last night:
Towleroad

ReplyDeleteJake is lazy and stupid. While his competition like Jake Franco prepares for Sundance Film Festival, Jake is after more tabloid stories and "straight" publicity.
Jake Franco??? Oops!
ReplyDeleteJake is lazy and stupid. While his competition like Jake Franco prepares for Sundance Film Festival, Jake is after more tabloid stories and "straight" publicity.
ReplyDeleteLOL @ Jake Franco, but IA. See, I don't find Franco to be a better actor than Jake, but that man works hard and his ass off, something Jake doesn't, instead seems more interested in tabloid crap.
If you ask me, the best young actor is Gosling, hands down. But unlike Franco he is not as conventionally handsome to become a mainstream star. JMO.
Gosling is the best young actor of his generation, I agree. He may not be conventionally handsome like Franco or Jake but---have you seen Blue Valentine?--he's VERY hot. I was shocked by how hot I found him. Whoa!
ReplyDeleteI think Ryan's butt is a little too big. :D
ReplyDeleteI don't think Jake is conventionally good looking either. He's more good looking than Gosling (obviously), but Franco is def. a conventionally good looking guy.
With Ryan and Jake (to a lesser extent), I was like why do people find them attractive, but then I saw it with Jake. With Franco it's kinda really obvious. That said, I'm not a big Franco fan. But I appreciate his work ethic.
Ryan's butt is just fine!
ReplyDelete(Old)James Franco Gucci Ad pics.
ReplyDeleteJJ
What keeps Jake from being conventionally good looking is his longish face. Ang Lee said it was difficult to shoot Jake, he needed to find the right angle.
ReplyDeleteAnd he should stop wearing full beards, stubble is good, but a full beard makes him look older and less attractive. I get he wants to be taken seriously and thinks a beard will do, but good work and staying out of tabloids would be the much better method. ;)
ReplyDeleteNah, my beards are working!
ReplyDeleteIf you look at the LAX pics Jake is smirking-like he's saying mission accomplished. I agree that he should put more effort into his career instead of showmances and photo ops. After the whole Swift thing and now the 2 day Nashville trip, most of the Internet can't even take him seriously. I think it's ashame that an actor who I thought was so good looking, charming and talented has become a parody of himself. I hope he doesn't further embrarass himself by following Swift all over during her tour. That would make him look even more pathetic.
ReplyDeletefamewhores love the tabloid attention
ReplyDeleteIf you look at the LAX pics Jake is smirking-like he's saying mission accomplished
ReplyDeleteOr the paps taking his picture could have been saying something to him causing him to smirk. Either way, we don't know do we? Just speculation and projection.
"Poor trolls,
ReplyDeletethey have no arguments so insulting posters is all they can do."
Oh poor TB bloger , insulted by "stupid" troll ouch bad bad!
bashing jake don't hide who you are for real: just as pathetic as him!even more. The truth is always awful, ted said so !
now you can delete censurjackie if that relieve you.
12:15 PM - silly troll, look for another place to insult people who don't share your opinion.
ReplyDelete"If you look at the LAX pics Jake is smirking-like he's saying mission accomplished"
ReplyDeletestop this shit! as if you read his mind.
12:20 PM - I would bet 500$ that paparazzi were informed about Jake's arrival by his PR.
ReplyDeleteWhy do we rarely see pics of big stars like Johnny Depp or up and comers like Franco, but regularly from Jake?
ReplyDeletehas become a parody of himself.
ReplyDeleteI think Jake doesn't realize it. Maybe he thinks being in tabloids shows his status in Hollywood...that he made it. That people are interested in him. Maybe.
Sundance film festival has started. Michelle will promote Meek's Cutoff. The movie has received good reviews so far.
ReplyDeleteJames Franco is at Sundance too:

Please, Jake had proven extremely well that he stay out of sight when he wants too. He left LA and went to Nashville and there wasn't any pics. He spent Dec in NYC and there were no pap pics. Jake is only "caught" in pap pics when he wants to be. Also the above post was stated as a supposition, not as a fact.
NSA is no. 1 at box office with 20 millions.
ReplyDeleteI must admit that Natalie and Ashton look good togher.
What bothered me about Jake and Anne is that Anne is just too tall for Jake. Jake is tall enough with 6 feet, but Anne looks better with a guy who is 6 feet 2 for instance. I like it when a woman is petite and a guy tall. Ashton and Natalie is a cute combo.

ReplyDeleteRazzies - nice to see so many Twilight nominations.
ReplyDeleteWhy on earth would Jake be on that list?, where are the "Jake was bad/awful" articles?.
ReplyDeleteOh I know you lot make it up.
I wouldn't be surprised to see PoP and Jake in PoP on that list, Twilight Saga: Eclipse has better Rotten Tomatoes score than PoP (50% / 36%).
ReplyDeleteJames Franco says he saw The Celluloid Closet in high school at a movie theater ... he is either gay or the greatest cock tease EVAH!

Paparazzi pictures of Jake and Taylor in Nashville Jan 19 for next issue of US Weekly bearding fiction:
ReplyDelete(PR went for blurry pics this time trying to avoid being too obvious they are staged)
photo op
And after posing for Us Weekly we thought that Jake can't be more pathetic! LOL
ReplyDeleteThanks 9:12.
ReplyDeleteIf you didn't know who they were, you would swear those are pics of a 12 yr old girl trying to catch up with daddy, who is walking too fast.
Jake has a movie to promote and the beard is working - PR changed their minds and decided to continue with 5-6 months of "keep them guessing" bullshit?
ReplyDeletePerhaps they aren't pap pics, but taken by a fan/passerby. They look like stills from a camera phone video. Then again, maybe that's what we are supposed to think lol.
ReplyDeleteThen again, maybe that's what we are supposed to think
ReplyDeleteNothing should surprise us from cheap publicity whores like Swift and Jake.
Beard screeching on the ship
ReplyDeleteEWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!
ReplyDeleteNow, now Jacob, Swift is just about your one and only meal ticket out of your current rut!
ReplyDeleteI'm hungry!

Anyone speaks Portuguese? Jake answers questions about the chin and Swift Beard:
ReplyDeleteIHJ - Criativa (Brazil) scans
^^^ Jake plays stupid about tabloids and reeking - what an idiot!
ReplyDeleteOh, come on, maybe Jake sincerely believes that there are paparazzi in Morocco deserts, museums in Spain, London galleries, pig farms ... LMAO!
ReplyDeleteThe comments, gifs, etc. are hilarious on ONTD.
ReplyDeleteI especially liked these comments because I feel the same way:
If they happened to be the celebrity couple I ran into on the street, I'd be so pissed. I would just like, stare, and be like, "What are you doing? Why aren't you other people?"
I would probably yell to Jake: "LOOK AT YOUR LIFE! LOOK AT YOUR CHOICES!"
Love the photo of the alien that looks like Swift.
"Anyone speaks Portuguese? Jake answers questions about the chin and Swift Beard:
ReplyDeleteIHJ - Criativa (Brazil) scans"
Translation:
Question: Does it bother you that the press reported everything about your romance with Reese Witherspoon?
Jake: I felt like people were always in the middle (laughs). The tabloids gave the impression of following every one of our steps. Do you think I should thank them for all the attention?
Question: And now? Does it bother you paparazzi constantly following you and Taylor Swift (the singer he is dating since last October)?
Jake: I can say that I am living one day at a time.
Thanks 1:28 PM!
ReplyDeleteI would probably yell to Jake: "LOOK AT YOUR LIFE! LOOK AT YOUR CHOICES!"
ReplyDeleteI would probably be arrested for insulting a celebrity in public :)
Jake: I felt like people were always in the middle (laughs).
ReplyDeleteThat's because you were with the beard and paparazzi du jour.
Jake Gyllenhaal Hides His Newly Clean-Shaven Face
ReplyDeletePITNB
WTF is wrong with him?
ReplyDeleteI don't like public attention!
ReplyDeleteBitch, please!
ReplyDeleteWTF is wrong with him?
ReplyDeleteMy assestment.
Most posters here think Jake is gay and hiding his sexuality while bearding. Some say it's because of the "showmances??". Most are here because of Ted's (blind Items which points to Jake, which also started off saying Jake was bisexual). Some are here because they intuitively think he's hiding something, his sexuality.
Well I was also interested in Ted's rumors and followed them until I had a flash of reality and started to think for myself and see how some of his reason and other sh-t sounded just like "for entertainment purposes only".
Although, In the beginning of followning JG I felt something was different about him just as most do, this did peak my interest.
Since then I have heard of many Hollywood young and old male stars who are in the closet. I believe some, I know this does and can happen, I also know there is more than what we see and more to these things than we know.
So many of the men, especially the young one's with the rumors have gotten married and some have a child or children now. (Orlando Bloom - Many rumors of he and the guy from LOTR) Both married with kids. I know the rationale that they can still be in the closet, True.
But, Some may not be and it can just be rumors! Also, Some can be bi-sexual men, young and old who don't want to, or will not come out as bisexual. In the closet bisexuals. LOL
It happens Wayyyy more than the avaerage person realizes.
There will always be those who will considered these men as gay no matter what, and I think this is part of some of what we have seen with these guy, maybe Jake. Most of these guys will have girlfriends and maybe get married with children. So you will see them with the opposite sex and if attention points towards anything other than straightness, they will (act out) as being nothing other.
Point is, most of the stars with gay rumors are probably bisexual to some degree. Yes, some are Gay and some might be totally str8.
I see Jake as probably being bi with no interest in speaking on it openly, NOW. Then going the route of most like him. Even Heath Ledger briefly had some bi rumors.
Most of the truly (totally GAY) - (Matt Bonner and guy from Heros and Star Trek) stars will stay single and live in plain site.
And, they don't and Won't speak on it!
Michelle, Nat and Franco:
