Obama: The First Gay President
It was the spring of 2007, back when Barack Obama’s bid for the presidency seemed quixotic at best. I’d seen Obama speak to a crowd and was impressed but wanted to see if what I’d seen from afar held up under closer scrutiny. So I asked to attend a private fundraiser in a tony apartment in Georgetown. I promised not to write anything. I just wanted to see the man up close and get a better sense of him and his character. At one point in the question-and-answer session, a woman looked him square in the eyes with what can only be called maternal grit. “My son is gay,” she said, and the room went suddenly quiet. “I don’t understand why you don’t support his right to marry the person he loves. It’s so disappointing to me.” Obama, without losing eye contact for a second, told her: “I want full equality for your son - all the rights and benefits that marriage brings. I really do. But the word ‘marriage’ stirs up so much religious feeling. I think civil unions are the way to go. As long as they are equal.”
My heart sank. Was this obviously humane African-American actually advocating a “separate but equal” solution - a form of marital segregation like the one that made his own parents’ marriage a felony in many states when he was born? The sudden equivocation made no sense - except as pure political calculation. And yet it also felt strained, as if he knew it didn’t quite fit. He wanted equality but not marriage - but you cannot have one without the other. On this issue, Obama’s excruciating nonposition was essentially “Yes we can’t.”
And yet somehow, simply by the way he answered that mother’s question, I didn’t believe it. I thought he was struggling between political calculation and his core belief in civil rights. And it was then that I realized he was both: a cold, steely, ruthless, calculating politician who nonetheless wanted to do the right thing in the end.
Last week he did it — in a move whose consequences are simply impossible to judge.

@PerezHilton someone needs to convince Jake Gyllenhaal to play Christian Grey in the 50 Shades movies!!! #pleeeeeease
Could someone kill the fake Jake on Twitter? lol
Why ? he's funny
The question is - can we make real Jake start using Twitter? :)
Can you imagine OMG and PG tweets?
PG would be never able to suit herself for the synthetic language of Twitter, she would send 15000 tweets and then her head it would explode BOOOM lol

Can't believe I'm hanging out with jake gyllenhall and george lopez omg @dave_deoliveira +serg + @CostaDanny92
Not sure where this girl is - but think it might be Toronto. But in that case, how did he get back there so fast?!
The "false Jake" is not funny! He/She is flooding twitter + making thousands of people actually think that Jake is a total tool. He/she annoys the heck out of me!
IMO Jake should open a verified account and just not use it, just to stop the confusion of who is real.
And I bet he's hot :)
Mmm Not so much,the guy is a little fat:)
Jake and George Lopez?
Now, that's weird lol:)
I'm hot and cute and smart!
But your greater dowry is the modesty George!
George Lopez is a bastard. His wife gives him a kidney and then he divorces her? Asshole.
Sounds like he went to the John Edwards school of how to treat your wife. :(
And the woman he cheated with ought to be in MichaelK's Ho Hall of Fame! ;)

In your dreams :)
Why not?
1. she is female
2. she is too young to have a drink in places Jake visits.
1. she is female
So?
1. Why would Jake buy a drink to a girl?
2. Why would Jake buy a drink to someone who is clearly under 20?
1. Why would Jake buy a drink to a girl?
Are you serious? Why heck no?!
2. Why would Jake buy a drink to someone who is clearly under 20?
They has perhaps been kind, they have perhaps made him compliments asked an autograph etc.. and he has reciprocated the gentleness, perhaps it was not anything alcoholic.

You know, this is what is growing just so darned tiresome with Jake. And Austin.
It's just rerun after rerun. Retread after retread. Same old, same old.
Where in the heck is Madeleine Kahn, anyway? I'm tired,
Tired of playing the game
Ain't it a crying shame
I'm so tired
Please, give me OneDirection any day now for freshness. For fun. For different, vibrant clothes every single day, lol.
Tired of these same old arguments, it is not worth my time right now.
I'm off!
1. Why would Jake buy a drink to a girl?
Are you serious?
Yes, please explain.
They has perhaps been kind, they have perhaps made him compliments asked an autograph etc
Based on what I've read last 5-6 years, Jake keeps his distance from fans (I believe that is smart thing to do), and he will pose for photo or give you autograph if you're lucky.
It is too soon to uncork the Champagne?
Yes, PG will never leave.
Yes, please explain.
Why OTH Jake can't offer a drink to a girl, an elderly woman, an Indian head or whoever other?
Yes, PG will never leave.
Damn!
Quick, someone subtly go over to OMG and suggest peegee start up her own blog, Waiting for Larry.
I'm sure peegee has already figured out that there are already three BODs* hidden away in the seekwit Stylin' mansion. So much fresh slash material to keep peegee company on those lonely nights.
*Baby One Direction
LMAO! LMAO! LMAO!
His wife gives him a kidney and then he divorces her?
BASTARD! I would have asked for it back!
Why OTH Jake can't offer a drink to a girl, an elderly woman, an Indian head or whoever other?
1. Celebrities don't do that / shouldn't do that for fans or random civilians.
2. Girls / younger women would take that as a sign that he's interested in them.
2. Girls / younger women would take that as a sign that he's interested in them.
Does it work so in America? I didn't know it, from us it is as a gesture of gentleness it does for men and women, at least in Italy. To offer a drink to a woman is as to open her the door or the door of the car.
PS Nothing to do with sex, only gallantry.
Does it work so in America?
I think it works like that everywhere :)
No,I means, this can be interpreted as a specific sign of interest, but together with so many others, it is not like "I offer you a drink therefore I want to bring you in bed ", at least from us it is so, however Italians, for the courting have all they rules and they are a few "archaic".
In this case we are taking about young male celebrity buying a drink to a perfect stranger and young female. I still can see only one reason to do that :)
I am not able to express an opinion, I don't know enough the uses of your country and risk not to understand and to say a lot of stupidities. I thought about nice gesture from a greater person as a kind of greater brother.
PS Nothing to do with sex, only gallantry.
Yes, I would agree with this for the most part.
A sign of interest, an ice-breaker, a sign of gallantry and politeness, and also appreciation.
a sign of gallantry and politeness
Sorry, that's ridiculous,
men don't buy drinks for women they just met because that is polite and nice.
Gallantry and politeness - they hold doors for them, let them enter buildings first, let them have better seats, things like that. You can bet that EVERY girlfriend and wife wouldn't call buying a drink for some strange female "gallantry and politeness", lol.
How ridiculous to dismiss the idea of Jake buying someone a drink because she is (Gasp) FEMALE!
She clearly writes: “bought US a drink”. Unless she is the Queen, it is fair to assume there were other people with her who also received drinks. How is that unbelievable?
It must be an American notion that this is unheard of, or should be interpreted as an invite for sex. I’ve lived in several European and Asian countries + Australia and everywhere people buy drinks for other people – for all kinds of random reasons or just out of politeness, friendliness etc. When I go out for an evening, it is usually a safe bet that I will end up receiving or buying drinks for others – and no, I don’t have to sleep with them all! Where the heck do you live?
How is that unbelievable?
Why don't you try reading comments?
You'll find reasons for "don't believe Jake is buying random girls drinks" opinion.
I’ve lived in several European and Asian countries + Australia and everywhere people buy drinks for other people – for all kinds of random reasons or just out of politeness, friendliness etc.
Bullshit.
I'm sure Jake doesn't approach people and offer them drinks because that is polite or because he wants to be friendly.
Did read your comments and your arguments are not convincing.
Yes, Jake may generally keep his distance from fans but there is nothing to indicate this woman (or whomever else were with her) is a fan/stalker hanging around set or waiting for an autograph. They might have just met in a bar.
And he probably did not just buy a drink for this girl but also for her friend(s). And, yes, it could even have been a come-on (if you want to read it that way)! She is clearly an attractive girl, it probably wouldn’t be the first time she received a drink from a man!
"Bullshit"
Eerrr okay then!!!
I won't waste time arguing over facts.
Sorry,
don't believe for a second that Jake is hitting on girls or that he's buying fans drinks of any kind.
And I hope he would hit on bit older girls if he cared about them.
I won't waste time arguing over facts.
LOL!!!
Your opinion is just your opinion, nothing to do with facts.
Not just an opinion. Based on personal experiences.
And you keep calling them "fans" when there is nothing to indicate that. They may just be ordinary people who met him in a restaurant or bar and got chatting somehow, so he bought them a round of drinks. Do you think Jake has withdrawn from the world and other people completely? Maybe he does still stoop to interactions with non-celebrities.
And I hope he would hit on bit older girls if he cared about them.
Nothing to indicate he "hit on her" - and nothing to indicate he cares about her. According to the tweet he just bought drinks!
How do we know how old this person was? Plus it says he bought "us" drinks, not her alone.
Not just an opinion. Based on personal experiences.
Your personal OPINION based on your personal experiences - NOT facts.
According to the tweet he just bought drinks!
LOL! Please read comments.
There is really no need for "gallantry, politeness, friendliness" fiction.
If you believe or hope that Jake cares about sex with women then just say so.
Sorry, that's ridiculous,
men don't buy drinks for women they just met because that is polite and nice.
Yes they do,
Why you always have to use offensive terms as ridiculous, stupid etc? You remove whatever desire to discuss, I have explained you my point of view, and I have admitted my ignorance bringing in change what I know about my country. Why you always have to offend?
BTW I can add that in my country a rule not writing exists, that the women don't pay, never it is a stupid rule , and medieval if you ask me, but still, especially if you consider that in Italy the women are discriminated and they almost never arrive in places to power or responsibilities,they calls this "respect" it is only instead a way to hold the women under control, and ""to their place" because money is things from men.
But in Italy and in the world exist also a lot of kind and gallant men that if they offer you a drink perhaps they want only to be pleasant and polite. And there is not anything of ridicule in this.
I have explained you my point of view, and I have admitted my ignorance bringing in change what I know about my country. Why you always have to offend?
READ COMMENTS.
Your comment wasn't discussed.
People have the right not to agree with your opinion.
LOL! Please read comments.
LOL. And we’ve come full circle…
If you believe or hope that Jake cares about sex with women then just say so.
I’m not sure if that was addressed to me but yes, I personally do believe he cares about sex with women – I even suspect he has plenty of it, which kind of limits the interactions / speculations I can enjoy on this site.
Witch brings me OT a bit!: I started visiting WFT because it has good, up-to-date information and allows for (fairly!) free discussions and expression of opinions + it’s quite humorous at times! However, I have been wondering if there is a similar online community that also allows for baseless theories and mindless speculation – but where you don’t have to automatically accept the notion of Jake being gay/TT (and/or with Austin)? I’ve seen a few of the regular fan sites but they seem to be fairly “fact based” – and honestly (and as bad as it sounds), when I’m resting online, I don’t want to be bound by strict rules and banned from gossiping ☺
@2.51.
Totally agree with your comment :)
Since when you need to "automatically accept the notion of Jake being gay/TT (and/or with Austin)" here??????????????
You are expected to explain your reasons for believing in bi/heterosexual Jake and respect JiG believers, but that's basic fair play as far as I'm concerned.
1:45 PM, 2:10 PM, 2:12 PM 2:30 PM, etc

"Banned from gossiping" - what kind of gossiping would that be?
Totally agree with your comment :)
Thank you! :)

Please tell us that you really believe how Jake Gyllenhaal would offer a drink to unknown people only to be pleasant and polite.
READ COMMENTS.

People have the right not to agree with your opinion.
It is exactly my comment that you are discussing, that goes very well, and you don't certainly have to be in accord with me, what I would like, is to have some respect and not to have called stupid or ridiculous, as I do with you and with everybody.
3:21 PM,
please stop lying.
If you bothered to read comments you would see that no one called anyone stupid nor ridiculous.
You call my stupid, stupid fan girl, sore loser, too stupid for words,etc... almost every time we have discussed.
Since when you need to "automatically accept the notion of Jake being gay/TT (and/or with Austin)" here??????????????
Oh, okay then, sorry, I misunderstood. I sort of assumed that was the “default” belief here, given the blog title – and as the discussion seems to centre on Jake Gyllenhaal. Glad to hear I am mistaken ☺

I almost totally agree with you, except for the fact that after so many years that follow Jake, anchor I am not able to say who or what he is, if is gay, straight, bi, everything together, and also likes me for this, there is always to discover!

Haha. Well I do agree with that as well. I obviously don’t KNOW for sure if Jake is straight, bi or gay – that is what makes the speculation so much fun! I was just looking for a “community” that accepts all theories, interpretations etc. without labeling one as being particularly foolish. I want to be able to speculate about Solange Knowles, Minka Kelly, Anonymous Brunette/Blonde, Female Drink-recipient – as well as Austin or whoever cute guy happens to be in a pap pic ☺

PG, has occupied SK's blog , and has turned it into "One Direction creepy fan club"
I want to be able to speculate about Solange Knowles, Minka Kelly, Anonymous Brunette/Blonde, Female Drink-recipient
Speculations are fun, but still should be based on something, anything connected to reality.
"One Direction creepy fan club"
Are those boys any good? Or are they as bad as Justin Bieber? lol

I can't recall any "Austin and the 5 children" speculations here.

First of all thanks for the benevolent words on my English!:)
I am with you on everything!
Lea Seydoux, Kiki Dunst, etc... they are facts, that are supported on solid realities, not only mere speculations
@ 4.13. I’m pretty sure I read about it here at some point (although some of the WFT regulars may not have been in agreement with the speculations). Anyway, I would actually like to take that comment back! It was a cheap shot – and I apologize. I guess if you believe in TC’s column you should accept a GG and at least 1 BT – and then such gossip is legit and “based on something” (though I don’t personally believe it).
+ all the examples I mentioned are actually based on fairly recent tweets, pictures etc, and so are based somewhat in reality, and therefore open to fun speculations ☺
4:20 PM,
What are you talking about?
Did you forget that we discussed Lea and Dunst many times here? (Not that there is much to discuss about Lea and Jake)
Are those boys any good? Or are they as bad as Justin Bieber? lol
Yes, would say that they are as JB, perhaps an a little better, but I don't believe they are gay, they are surely expansive with each other, but they are a British young boy band so.....however surely around them there is a lot of speculation
I guess if you believe in TC’s column you should accept a GG and at least 1 BT
Are there people who do that beside OMGers?
I think there is enough facts we know / can see about Jake and Austin to be sure that they aren't together and have no kids.
I don't believe they are gay
Is it possible to have boy band without gay members? :)
Certainly has been discussed, and I have clarified various times my point. I believe that there is this world and that other to discuss on Lea and Jake. don't you want to do it? ok but to ignore it is as to ignore an elephant in the room.
Is it possible to have boy band without gay members? :)
Mmm , You have a point here, No is not possible!:)

Doesn't prove anything except that JiG fans here are interested in the truth.

I express myself not well, I'm sorry,I meant that there would be a lot to discuss about Jake and Lèa.
Like what?
We did discuss every sighting, every tweet, every photo.
Jake was free to be with Lea while she was working - he choosed to stay in New York. They seem like casual friends, don't see what else is there to be discussed.
Are there people who do that beside OMGers?
I’m not sure. I get the impression that many people believed Ted’s story initially (and believed he was talking about Jake) but then jumped ship later on when it got too absurd and/or no longer matched Jake’s description. I guess OMGers are the only ones who fully believed the baby-story (and have since multiplied it a few times, and I’m really confused why?!) and continue to accept TC’s blinds as facts – But, from other blogs, I do get the impression that many people, including non-fans still accept Jake as TT. I could be wrong on this.

No, I’m afraid I wasn’t here at that time so missed all the fun! I’m glad to hear the site is open to all arguments and possibilities though ☺
I am enough sure that Jake has been with Lea for the whole time of Berlinale, where she has remained up to the end without motive, and not to begin with: she was them for contacts and for job, Lea it is a star in Europe, believe me, she doesn't need this. Then he has followed her to Paris and then she has come to NY, for me it is enough, it was not the love of his life but something has happened, for me it is obvious.
I do get the impression that many people, including non-fans still accept Jake as TT.
Jake is TT, no question about that part of TT saga.
No question about how liar is Ted Casablanca too.
for me it is obvious
Same "arguments" as OMG's "Jake and Austin are together": you presume things you want to be true and ignore facts you don't like.
No question about how liar is Ted Casablanca too.
Ted Casablanca was right - Jake Gyllenhaal is gay. Jake faked his relationships, Ted didn't make that up.
she has remained up to the end without motive
How on Earth could you know something like that? Do you work for her agency?
No not to try to compare me to them, doesn't work, I could do the same with you, you ignore the facts that you don't like, you are as them not me, for me anything Jake is or it loves it is all right.We have already had this discourse and at the end you have called me fangirl and troll, shows more intelligence and tolerance this time.
How on Earth could you know something like that? Do you work for her agency?
You go to check, I am European and I study cinema, I know it.
Ted Casablanca was right - Jake Gyllenhaal is gay. Jake faked his relationships, Ted didn't make that up.
That is your opinion. I disagree.
I believe Ted did originally write the TT blind about Jake, then realized his information was wrong and since distanced it from matching Jake's life to get out of the mess (like insisting on TT and GG having a baby - whilst simultaneously (in other parts of his blog) stating that neither Jake nor Austin have children etc.).
I do not believe Jake Gyllenhaal is gay as I have seen absolutely nothing to support that claim, except TC's faulty blind item. I completely respect your opinion on the issue - but you are stating it as an absolute fact.
Ted Casablanca was right - Jake Gyllenhaal is gay. Jake faked his relationships, Ted didn't make that up.
Always the usual old matter that is not worth for W. Huston, and that is just your opinion and not a fact .
5:28 PM - what that has to do with anything?
You don't have a way of knowing Lea's business or obligations, you are just making things up.
Always the usual old matter that is not worth for W. Huston, and that is just your opinion and not a fact .
LEARN TO READ.
Who said or implied that is more than an opinion?????????????????
No I'm not, don't bring me to make the same thing as the production of EOW, I don't say lies and you know it.
I do not believe Jake Gyllenhaal is gay as I have seen absolutely nothing to support that claim, except TC's faulty blind item. I completely respect your opinion on the issue - but you are stating it as an absolute fact.
Are you new here?
(I feel stupid explaining the same thing ove and over and over again)
perhaps I have to learn to read but you have to learn to write:
Ted Casablanca was right - Jake Gyllenhaal is gay. Jake faked his relationships, Ted didn't make that up.
you declare this as a datum of fact, not as an your opinion
No I'm not
Please stop insulting everyone's intelligence.
You have no way of knowing what was Lea doing during Berlin film festival or why she was there 2, 4, or 8 days.
(I feel stupid explaining the same thing ove and over and over again)
No one is asking you to! I'm sure I have already examined the same information (or "evidence") as you - but have reached a different conclusion.
If we all believed the same thing there would be no need for debates or discussion boards!
you declare this as a datum of fact, not as an your opinion
I've said this 1.000 times before.
Some people followed Jake's "relationships".
Some people were here when 100.000 comments were posted on this blog.
I'm 100% sure Jake is gay - of course that is my opinion, no one suggested otherwise.
No one EVER claimed here to know that Jake is gay or that "Jake is gay" is fact.
Yes I have she was there she was hanging in exclusive party, and other pleasant places.I don't have motive to lie and I know these facts as I knew the film and the comic book blue, I am European. Is there here by chance some other European? During the festival they do e special television daily that bring what happens, with interviews sent etc, stop it
but have reached a different conclusion
You are one of those fans who think that Jake faked his relationship with Taylor Swift for publicity, not because he's gay?
Because so far no one here dared to claim that Jake really dated her, lol.
I don't think Jake dated Taylor but Ithink Jake dated Kiki and Reese.
Not even a nice try, 5:45 PM.
Don't try to change subject.
Your words: "I am enough sure that Jake has been with Lea for the whole time of Berlinale, where she has remained up to the end without motive".
That is your wishful thinking.
I don't think Jake dated Taylor
LOL!!!
I just LOVE how no one wants to look stupid by claiming that Jake really dated Swift!
No stop it!
Les adieux a la Reine it was the film of INAUGURATION of Berlinale, first day!!!!, Lea and D Krugers, were there then DK it is go away and Lea has remained. do you remember the two different evenings with Jake, one at least three / four days after the inauguration?
@5.47. Well won’t I look silly answering the question now but…
I kind of do believe he dated Taylor Swift!
So There!
I don’t think it was ever anything serious though. I think he got more than he bargained for and quickly bailed. I actually think Jake engages in quite a bit of casual dating – not going into every flirt thinking she’s his future wife.
I’ve got to go to bed!
Not sure if I’m supposed to announce that but I don’t want it to look like I ran off in the middle of a debate!
Thanks for the discussion. It was fun. Till next time…
I kind of do believe he dated Taylor Swift!
Well, I'm sure PR agencies love people like you :)

One more time: "I am enough sure that Jake has been with Lea for the whole time of Berlinale, where she has remained up to the end without motive"."
1. No, you have no idea how much time Jake spent with Lea during the festival.
2. No, you don't know if Lea stayed longer because of Jake.
As simple as that.
It was fun. Till next time…

Meanwhile it would be nice if you apologizef to have said that I was invented that Lea had remained in Berlin, because if I am wrong I apologize.:)
Good evening to everybody also from me :)

Luminato begins this Friday, and it can be a bit of a whirlwind. Everything from a Philip Glass opera about Einstein’s life to a gigantic food festival are on the card from June 8 to June 17, so both mind and body will be nourished. There’s even a huge cast of international guests coming through Toronto, like New York artist Terence Koh and New Yorker editor Deborah Treisman. But there’s so much to do, and we couldn’t possibly see everything, so we’ve created an easy-to-use guide that lists all of Luminato’s best bets.
June 8
K’Naan
The Somali-Canadian rapper behind the ubiquitous 2010 FIFA World Cup anthem “Wavin’ Flag” kicks off Luminato with a free outdoor show. In case you’re wondering: yes, he will almost certainly perform that song, and yes, you’ll sing along. Ghanaian-Canadian singer-songwriter Kae Sun opens. David Pecaut Square, 55 John St., luminato.com.

So Jake Gyllenhaal & K'naan spent the whole evening together. Night? :)
What's that sound?
Oh, I know, OMG heads exploding!
Sheesh, this is becoming a daily event. My mop is worn out (and so am I. Six Brady kids were enough) :\
LOL :)

I saw that same tweet, PG and immediately thought Jake probably was having a later dinner with someone he did not want to be seen with. He has done that many, many times before. Who knows what the paparazzo might have said to make him angry, but just not wanting to be photographed with Austin could very well be at the core of the verbal altercation.
Dear OMG,
as you can see from K'naan photo,
Jake Gyllenhaal can NOT hide people who are with him in public places.
Same law of physics and Twitter applies to Austin Nichols.
You should also start taking ginseng or something similar ASAP to prevent further memory loss,
because Jake was fine with paparazzi and with being seen with Austin Nichols during Adam Levine LA lunch - and there are photos to prove that.
P.S. There are photos of Jake after New York dinner in question - Jake looks cool and ignores paparazzi.
Where?
Link pls:)

I was looking at the Parm photos today and I, too notice that it seems out of pattern for there to be only four photos.
Those pictures look as though he was told to Start Walking on "cue", take four steps and then "cut".
Photo Op done, the bare minimum.
June 10, 2012 10:30 PM
OMG has become a honeypot for loons worldwide
They are frustrated like Hell - Berlin Film festival looked so promissing only to end in total disaster: Jake in Paris without Austin, Jake in New York for weeks, Jake doing Broadway for months.

oh yah, i totally forgot to brag that i saw Jake Gyllenhaal at the show last night and now we're like, best friends.

Spotted:Jake Gyllenhaal hangs out with gay power couple
Jake Gyllenhaal is still in town filming An Enemy, and he spent last night as a VIP at Rufus Wainwright’s Luminato concert at David Pecaut Square. Gyllenhaal was spotted hanging out with two blonde women in the VIP tent, alongside Jorn Weisbrodt, K’naan and other guests. It’s not typical for power couple Weisbrodt and Wainwright to be under a tent with heartthrob Gyllenhaal in a public space in downtown Toronto, so we imagine there are many people this morning who wish they hadn’t gone to bed early last night. Gyllenhaal and K’naan skipped out on the after-party and waited 15 minutes in line at Terroni before getting a table.

Apparently he was hanging out with a “gay power couple” (i.e Weisbrodt and Wainwright) – hurrah for catchy titles! I personally find it a bit insulting, but then I always find it distasteful when people are defined by their sexuality first and foremost (perhaps they could have mentioned Rufus by name and for other merits in that heading, but that’s just my personal opinion). Anyway, out on the town he definitely was! I hope he enjoyed himself. I wonder if one of the blonde women was the one arriving at the airport with him (she sure was blonde!).
Sorry I posted the same info - weird it didn't show up for me before.
Hi, Posting, ITA with you, as usual:)
I have posted the article but forgot the link sorry:)

I agree.

Hungry for pussy!

Maybe that means that Austin will continue to work on the series.
@6:01 AM
I have thought the same thing. Otherwise why this whole enthusiasm?
Poor OMG, there goes their bullshit theory about J&A planning there work schedules around 'raising a family' to ensure that at least one of them is not working so the BTz can be unchained once a day!
["Tommy Jenkins"], any ethnicity, 18 - Mid 20s. Tommy is a charismatic, irreverent, Cocky, and intelligent movie star who loves to break the rules and take chances. He is mostly known for starring in action movies, though he is trying to break into other parts. Tommy is athletic and loves to work out. He is normally quite skilled at talking other people into doing almost anything. But Tommy finds himself in hot water with the press when he is caught with a prostitute, and he now must turn to Ray for help. CO-STARRING ROLE

Cool! :)
... so the BTz can be unchained once a day!
Pfft! Once a week is enough, kids need discipline!
No, seems he is present just for the first episode
CO-STARRING ROLE for the first episode.
We should ask Austin :)
No, it would be enough to read the list of the characters:
example:
["Bunchy Donovan"], Caucasian, 20s - 30s. Bunchy is a troubled, depressed, and yet sympathetic guy who has many emotional scars from a turbulent childhood. He has developed an alcohol problem, and his father has spent many years in prison. Bunchy is the younger brother of Ray Donovan. Though he does not always get along with his brother, he has a lot of respect for him. SERIES REGULAR
["Sean Stevens"], any ethnicity, 40s. Sean is a smart, Charming, and suave guy who happens to be a successful movie star. He is extremely stable and level-headed as far as famous actors go. He has known Ray for many years and the two of them both had their wild days in the past. But now Sean is about to become a father and is interested in settling down with his wife. He is worried that Ray's dad is going to be getting out of jail soon and might come after him for something that occurred many years ago. SERIES REGULAR
["Robert Lepecke"], any ethnicity, 30s. Robert is a shy, awkward, and emotionally-withdrawn guy with glasses who has developed a fixation on the rock star Ashley Rucker. Robert lives alone in his apartment and has limited connection to the outside world. He is not a mean-spirted guy, but he simply has trouble relating to other people. He believes that his only true love in the world is for Ashley Rucker, and he is determined to meet the pop princess at any cost. CO-STARRING ROLE

Is Minka looking for publicity?
Well she's not looking for peen
I don't think so, she has just been chosen to play J Kennedy in the new movie of the director of Precious.But everything is possible.
How this Cooper Lawrence knows?
I hope J Kennedy stands for John F. Kennedy, because otherwise Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis will be VERY pissed off! :)
How this Cooper Lawrence knows?
He doesn't know.
... otherwise Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis will be VERY pissed off!
Don't get me started!
LOL! you are bad, no she play Jacqueline, and it seems that Matthew McConaughey will play President John.F Kennedy.
if I have understood well, she is a girl and she works for a radio,however,maybe I have not understood anything, therefore it is better that check you.
