No one should ever be forced out.
It is too personal and important decision in someone's life.
It is up to each person when they are ready to share that part of themselves with others.
It does look like a blog is claiming to have information and outing Jake.
I am leaving it to you to decide what you think.
Whatever the outcome from this, Jake will need support from all of his fans.
Jake & Austin --We send our good thoughts, wishes and most of all our support. -OMG

One thing that I do know and not alleged:
ReplyDeleteMy comment from the previous post.
From friend back from the Vineyard
im'd to me this morning -- "apparently 'your boy' left the island via plane Friday afternoon"
Friend/resident they were dining with Friday night said they had spent the afternoon watching celebrities leave the island, during the course of the dinner conversation.
Jake shouldn't be forced out, but it has always been a danger I think for Jake because he is in a relationship and has flirted with coming out, and maybe on some level even wants the decision to be taken out of his hands. It still doesn't make it right though. The fear that he would be outed in a very unpleasant way is one of the reasons why I've always thought it would be better if he just came out.
ReplyDeleteJust agog and waiting at the moment.
ReplyDeleteIf they had have frigging well allowed him to come out years ago when he wanted to he wouldn't be in this situation.
ReplyDeleteThe more Hollywood tries to cover up for men and women in same sex relationships the more they are likely to be outed in the most terrible way. I'm not a fan of this, but it didn't surprise me sadly.
I blame the Hollyweird closet for having people lie from the start.
Yowl ^^
ReplyDelete11:59
ReplyDeleteMany agree with you about this.
Do you think we could call something other than 11:59 when we use your comments in further discussions?
Thanks Yowl!
ReplyDeleteI am in complete agreement with Yowl.
ReplyDeleteI know I feel that way too.
ReplyDeleteMy niece who is 15 says, why can't they just say they're gay, what is the big deal. Exactly. What is the big deal. There should be no deal about it. It just shouldn't matter.
The next generation does care, it is non-issue for them. Why is HW forcing people to conform to antiquated Hollywood systems, when the world around them has changed.
Great to see you Daff.
Why is HW forcing people to conform to antiquated Hollywood systems, when the world around them has changed.
ReplyDeleteMoney. Young male cinema-goers still don't want gay movie heroes.
Just agog and waiting at the moment.
ReplyDeleteI feel the same, Scylla, but I'm not sure what it is that I'm waiting for. Right now I just really want to know that both boys are okay.
It does look like a blog is claiming to have information and outing Jake.
ReplyDeleteI may be wrong but I would consider it a bona fide outing if it was done in the tabs or, as it happened earlier this year, in publications like The Advocate. Unless this guy comes up with supporting pics, he will be just one more member of the "Jake is bi/gay" online club. Some people will call him crazy, others will believe him, accusations will fly, support will pour in, the usual drill. But it will still be considered a mere blog thing that will probably go largely unnoticed in the mainstream press.
I get the feeling that we're simply dealing with somebody who's doing some serious catching-up. As one poster points out over at his blog, up to now JJ thought Jeese was the real thing!
I support outing politicians, religious leaders and any other public personalities who hurt the GLBT community. On the artistic front, the recent “outing” issue of The Advocate comes to my mind and I remember nodding in approval as I saw the names of Jodie Foster and Anderson Cooper on the cover, probably because those in power who perpetuate the cult of silence in the name of privacy just make me cringe.
As for Jake, I think he’s still in an extremely vulnerable position career-wise and given HW’s homophobia, it seems (or at least that's what people want us to believe) that any outing would endanger his dreams of becoming an established movie actor. Also, if he’s outed, he may be totally unprepared to face the consequences, both professional an personal, which means pain and emotional hardships for him as well as for his SO. So in the end I much prefer to have him coming out on his own terms.
You are absolutely right to point out that he wouldn't be in this situation if he had been allowed to be himself in the first place.
Money. Young male cinema-goers still don't want gay movie heroes.
ReplyDeleteWell maybe it's about time young male cinema-goers dealt with it.
After all, the rest of the world has to deal with young, male cinema-goers without complaint. :)
It doesn't work that way: HW is selling the product to those young male not-very-smart cinema-goers :)
ReplyDeleteRemember My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Shakespeare in Love, BBM, etc.? Obviously these were not made with the young male movie-goer in mind and they brought nice profits to the studios.
ReplyDeleteSometimes I feel that young males make up the bulk of the movie-going crowd simply because there are movies for THEM out there.
Am I being delusional?
It's not that it's JUST a blog though. It's the whole can of worms this opens in the bigger context. This letter to JJ is powerful; it's angry, it gives details, times, names, info. Whether you choose to believe it or not if it spreads it's what it opens up further afield. Then come denials, more silly photo ops, fake PDAs and stories with Reese, the whole thing is just an endless sad spiral all because of the terrific fear of being perceived as being gay.
ReplyDeleteAnd you have to ask yourself, if Jake is walking aroud LA with his bf/s (and this same thing has been said in many places, that's he's very open about it), then it is not Jake that cares.
But someone else does. But like anything else who needs bad fans? Good fans would stand by any actor who came out? Those would be the sort of fans I'd want even if it weren't an army.
But, I don't know what's gonna happen here! It might fizzle out, run for a few days and be forgotten, cleaned up or JJ may be forced to U-Turn. More Reese PDA? Who knows. Personally I hope he does come out and end it on his own terms but I don't run the house in Hollywood. He may have to say the three words, except with a "not" in there. We just don't know at all.
I'm sad it's come to this.

ReplyDeleteMaybe it's about time it did.
Amen frenchy!
ReplyDelete1:19
ReplyDeleteYou have a lot to great things to say. Sorry we missed your name. What do you prefer?
Unfortunately it seems like most of HW is focused on the blockblusters, with movies that appeal to women only popping up on occassion even though they make money. Some of it is because young males take in multiple showings of the blockbusters. I also think women probably don't put their foot down often enough when it comes to movie choices. Women will go to the "guy" films, but when you go to a film like Greek Wedding the audience is mostly female, and they're going with their friends instead of their boyfriends.
ReplyDeleteI just watched that clip from Knocked Up about BBM because I was talking about it with friends who had not seen it. When you think about what it is expressing it is kind of radical in its own way. On the other hand, it got left out, probably for the same reason.
((Wicked)) good to hear from you.
Anon 1:19 special is right you got good points and it would be much nicer if you had a name so I could say: *INSERT NAME* you were right! It's spreading!".
ReplyDeleteJust saw it referred to at Dlisted and Mollygood.
LOL, I think yellow neon monkeys should be code for whether Jake will come out, as in do you think we'll see yellow neon monkeys today.
ReplyDeleteThe talk of a Baby Tile still seems strange to me when to all appearances J&A don't live together, and I still can't see it being Chris. Why wouldn't Ted have given us different hints if it was the latter. Or hints that Austin is not right--I'm not counting the recent post about his not being who we think not only because it points to JFC, but because it comes more than a year after people began to think it was Austin.
The talk of a Baby Tile still seems strange to me when to all appearances J&A don't live together, and I still can't see it being Chris. Why wouldn't Ted have given us different hints if it was the latter.
ReplyDeleteITA destiny. So many hints don't fit regarding Chris. Also, I still have in mind these pictures where Jake holds and kisses Kirsten under the benevolent look of his childhood friend. If Chris was indeed the BF, Jake would have A LOT of explaining and justifying to do.
I think setting up house does not necessarily mean California.
ReplyDeleteI think they might have planned to set up house and home somewhere other than that. Somewhere that could allow them to hide in plain sight as it were.
Always have said it Chris is Jake's closest friend. And what a true friend indeed to put up with all of this nonsense about him.
All roads lead to Austin.
I'll be very honest here. Not only do I NOT see Baby Tile coming but the thought of Jaustin having a baby right now does not fill me happiness at all. Seems to me that these guys still have some growing up to do before starting a family.
ReplyDeleteFeel free to shoot me now.
Seems to me that these guys still have some growing up to do before starting a family.
ReplyDeleteI agree, Frenchy. And if they are having a baby, I wish them all the luck in the world. They'll need it. :)
Oh yeah wicked. Like you said in your post above all we wish is for them to be ok.
ReplyDeleteOn another note, this might sound totally selfish, particularly today, but I'm pissed that nobody seems to give a damn about Rendition, LOL!

ReplyDeletehttp://idontlikeyouinthatway.com/2007/08/jake-gyllenhaal-is-gay-and-having-a-baby.html
Thanks for the links links!
ReplyDeleteAs Dustin Hoffman used to say in Rain Man: "Oh, oh..."
I also agree with you, Frenchy. I haven't believed in baby tile from the beginning. Besides the fact that they both seem "young" to me in terms of maturity, they seem to be at that point in their careers where they are both ready to move up to the next level. Why would they choose this time to have a child?
ReplyDeleteTo play devil's advocate for the moment.
ReplyDeleteHow many of your friends have been together several years and proceeded to take the next step in their relationship, either getting engaged married or having a child?
They are both family orientated, love their respective nieces and nephew, and I can't discount the baby bug might have bitten them.
Yes maybe the time is not the best. Maybe they are having a child, maybe they are waiting a bit. But I can see them with a baby sooner than later.
I think we sometimes think of men, who have the ability to have children until whenever, putting it off, when in fact there are many men their age who want to be fathers.
If and when they have a child, I am sure that they will be both great dads.
if he is really gay he will be outed for sure
ReplyDeletebut
sorry for now it's seems to me a great joke , i already hear fangirls laught and frankly i can't blame them for that
3:05
ReplyDeleteA number is so impersonal. What can we put on your name tag for the OMG mixer here?
3.05 Just call it The Foreign Troll. It's posting on WFT as well.
ReplyDeleteAnd 3:49 what can we call you?
ReplyDeleteI agree that our opinions are often guided by our own experience. My sister had her first child when she wasn't ready and her second when she was fully aware of what motherhood entailed. Her first child had an hectic childhood (I'm being generous here), her second a stable home and two loving parents. So I have a tendency to say “wait” when I feel that solid foundations do not exist to welcome a new little human being.
ReplyDeleteIn HW, men generally postpone fatherhood when they’re in the process of climbing the professional ladder. This is a ferocious and merciless fight and J&A are in the midst of it, on their own accord. If they were to have a baby now, they would have to juggle all the stress of being first-time parents, extreme professional pressure, the upheavals of being a totally out couple for the first time in their life, and so on. All this for two men who, like a lot of HW guys their age, come across as slightly immature. So IMO, this is not the best of times to have a child.
I'm not saying that Baby Tile will not materialize in the future, nor that twenty-something males are automatically unfit for parenthood. It’s just that as a fan what I’ve seen Jaustin say and do recently do not point to a couple who’s on the verge of having a baby.
On the other hand I agree that life and love often have a way to interfere with the most meticulous plans and the deepest ingrained common sense. Sometimes for the best. :-)
Oh My Godot, I would just like to say how much I admire the way that you dealt with this whole affair on the site today - with grace and affection. Like you, I'd like to offer my support to Jake and to Austin and to everyone else concerned at this time. It can't be easy.
ReplyDeleteHi WDW, It's wonderful to see you here. Your site is the best!!
ReplyDeleteHi, WDW. I really like your site too. And I like that unlike other Jake sites that shall remain nameless, your site did acknowledge Austin's DUI last week and the fact that he is important to Jake's life in some manner.
ReplyDeleteThanks WDW
ReplyDeleteWe want to give Jake and Austin the respect they deserve.
I know we all here offer them our support to them both, just as you do.
Have to say that I really like WDW, and yes I am a big fan of October Sky. I loved that post.
Thanks Special K, and thanks Layla, I'm so glad you liked that post - I adore October Sky as you might have guessed! My main concern is to support Jake, mostly through examining his films and choices, but I will always give respect to the people who are important to him and Austin is undoubtedly one of those. I felt very sorry for him this week and I don't like to see people drawing any kind of amusement from his mistake.
ReplyDeleteI really like this site and I love the way you gently ask anons to identify themselves.

In that case I should have posted as an anon - always ready for a free drink ;)
ReplyDeleteHoly shit.
ReplyDeleteI...I...I...
Holy shit.
"...Jake Gyllenhaal, is planning to come out some time by the end of September..."
ReplyDeletehttp://www.topsocialite.com/i-may-need-to-break-up-with-jake-gyllenhaal-soon
Thanky you special for keeping it civil. Watching the story spin in scary! My thoughts are with Jake and Austin (and Chris) who hopefully don't even know what's going on.
ReplyDeleteWell, I finally read Jonathan's Jake is gay blog and I must say, I did laugh when I read the details of the SUV rendezvous outside the gourmet Chinese restaurant in West Hollywood. Was this before dinner or after?
ReplyDeleteAnd I am fascinated by the details of the surrogacy. And the baby is coming soon!! Seriously, if this is true, how will they hide this?? Eventually, you're going to take your baby outside and walk him/her in a stroller so he/she will get some air. You can't just hide it inside your house 24/7.
None of this has hit the mainstream press. If it doesn't, I think Jake and his people will just ignore it.
ReplyDeleteI do wonder what Ted's reaction was.
I just googled Jake and the first five pages out of 12 were all "Jake is coming out! And with a baby too!"
ReplyDeleteThe news is spreading slowly, like a merlot spill that inches closerand closer to the edge of the coffee table before it finally drips onto the white rug.
It took the mainstream press almost a full day to catch the Austin DUI story, remember.
But those were all blogs, and of the blogs none of the bigger blogs so far like TMZ, Just Jared or Pereez has reported, nor Defamer or Gawker and they usually do by now. The DUI did not take a full day to be reported by the mainstream press, if you remember it was a local MI paper that first reported it. I feel bad for Chris, because his name is being mentioned in all the blogs for the most part not Austin. And no need to hold a vigil and worry because I doubt that Jakes people will comment on internet chatter unless the mainstream media picks it up.
ReplyDelete7:17
ReplyDeleteThat is a good point, I think everyone feels for Chris as much as Jake and Austin. Chris is has been nothing but a great supportive friend.
Is there a name that we call you?
Another letter from Tom that Ted answered.
ReplyDeleteI don't know Tom. People are going to start talking. LOL
Dear Ted:
It sure is beginning to look like Jake and Reese are really in love. Why would Reese go all the away across the country to be on the same island as Jakey? Is it time we admit these two are a couple?
Tom
Mount Laurel, New Jersey
Dear Hook, Line and Sinker:
Uh, did you forget the movie they worked on together is being released in early October? On-set couplings are prolly just what the publicists ordered for some buzz and box-office mojo.
and the other Jake letter
Dear Ted:
Are Reese and Jake playing you? You report a close Reese source tells you she and Ryan may be getting back together, and the next day there is a report she is in Martha's Vineyard with Jake! What's the real deal?
Lynn
Morgantown, West Virginia
Dear Reese's Pieces:
"Deal" being the key word.
Another letter from Tom that Ted answered.
ReplyDeleteI'm so mad now!!! Ted will not answer me!
LOL! I was sure we'd get a reaction from wicked! I can't wait to see Tom's reaction. ;) ;)
ReplyDeleteObviously Ted considers Jeese like a real bearding deal, not simply a lucrative fake hookup made up by the tabloids.
And publicists think that Jeese will make more people see Rendition? Something tells me that this segment of the audience is in for some disappointment and that those gains will be short-lived.
Ok, now this is a clear example of a guy whose outing was well deserved. Of course now his preferences will get a bit more publicity: ANTI-GAY CAUGHT IN HIS OWN WEB!
ReplyDeleteI cant believe it. Two now. Is there a bright new career ahead for me? Yeah right!
ReplyDeleteAll this info is so hard to believe. We just have to wait and see. I read a post on WFT where someone said JJ is really putting his rep on the line. If he is wrong he is gonna look like a real fool. Got to hand it to him for taking the risk. I hope he is right.
Keep trying Wicked. Hopefully you will realize this wonderful honor that has been bestowed upon me. Life is beautiful then you got to get up and go to work.
ReplyDeleteTom says he is a god! Sigh.
ReplyDeleteAll quiet on the JJ front...
ReplyDeleteJJ still hasn't ID'd the BF, even though he said he would do so by day's end yesterday.
ReplyDeleteYou wonder if he was contacted by management or other legal representation and now can not say anymore more.
ReplyDeleteIf he said Chris, couldn't there be a lawsuit, since Chris is not a public person? Wouldn't it be slander? or libel?
I think somebody got a hold him and reminded him of a few things. That is why he is not saying.
Why would he say Chris? If he has a "good" source I think he'll say Austin.
ReplyDeleteDoes he have that great of a source?
ReplyDeleteAnd if he can't see that Chris actually two of the three guys he has listed, it makes you wonder.
You can't sue for libel if what is said is true. The difference with public and private figures is that with a public figure you have to show that the source was reckless in their disregard for the truth, not just negligent.
ReplyDeleteWhy didn't Ted have any TT questions this week? He really is dragging that out. And Tom, we're not worthy of your skills. I assume you're working on a threepeat and trying to figure out a way to get Ted to confirm who bf tile is.
Although I believe the bf to be Austin, I have fully expected him to say Chris just because I think he is mostly talking out of his butt.
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing we are supposed to take it that somebody emailed him that info, he read it, thought about it and then started wondering who the bf is and did some research and came up with Austin, Chris and mystery man as the bf.
The funniest part is mystery man (apart from the fact that he is Chris' twin) because besides a little bit of Lance A joking, Jake really hasn't been linked to a third man.
The only part that truly gives me pause is the baby part. That's a pretty big thing to come out with. Even Ted seemed to step back from it for a while. If September and part of October go past and no baby, he is going to look like the biggest fool. Even if he's doing it for fame, why would he want to be a one month wonder?
September and part of October go past and no baby, he is going to look like the biggest fool.
ReplyDeleteThe real question - why Ted did that and what explanation will he give?
I never saw Ted give a specific date. Do you have a link?
ReplyDeleteWho's that? Ted's last word on Baby Tile was to give them time. He made it sound like they have shelved it for a while, much like the coming out.
ReplyDeleteSo Ted has already covered himself.
Don't have a link, just: "Remember Ted made a comment about Baby Tile being just in time for Naomi's Watt's baby?"
ReplyDeleteMar 5, 2007
ReplyDelete"See, I'm told one of my fave on-the-verge self-proclaimed gay actors is thisclose, after much papa-esque powwowing, to adopting a kid with his b-f. Congrats, you two! Will all this familial frolicking happen in time to share B-days with Naomi Watt's toddler-to-be? Too much fun in the crib-side sun!"
http://www.eonline.com/gossip/awful/?uuid=5ed9de99-271e-40ff-aedd-19abeec202a8
That is true Who's that but he has since said to give them time when someone asked him about Baby Tile in a question meaning that is his latest word on the subject.
ReplyDeleteSo he has covered himself.
"Will all this familial frolicking happen in time to share B-days with Naomi Watt's toddler-to-be?"
ReplyDeleteMy take was that Ted was asking a question here himself, not stating a fact - in other words, he did not know the actual timeframe.
Thanks to all for these reminders concerning Ted's position regarding Baby Tile.
ReplyDeleteApparently JJ is a prime example of how youth and eagerness can do oneself a major disservice. All experienced gossip specialists knew about TT yet JJ just seemed so genuinely surprised.
I think nothing will transpired in the mainstream press be it online or off. As for any possible warning given by Jake's management, the possibility of a warning by 360 doesn't seem far-fetched to me.
I have to say I feel for Jake. He must be under tremendous pressure. He wants to come, but is advised not to do it; there are no precedents for an out gay actor in HW; and all the time the pressure from the gossip world is mounting. It must be very hard to figure out what to do and when, especially with everything else that is going on in his life right now (Austin's arrest, and if it is true, the imminent arrival of baby Tile). Hope he is doing ok.
ReplyDeleteDestiny, you can sue for libel if what is said about you is true, as long as you can prove it false in court. The real truth does not matter in court, only what can be proved legally.
ReplyDeleteThere are early buzzes starting about Rendition. It is on a lot of must see Fall movie lists. Looks like it has the stuff.
ReplyDelete10 Days till the premiere at TIFF.
There are early buzzes starting about Rendition. It is on a lot of must see Fall movie lists. Looks like it has the stuff.
ReplyDeleteFinally people are starting to notice that Jake has a new movie coming, lol!
I just hope things work out okay.
ReplyDeleteI said yesterday that I felt like I was waiting for something but didn't know what. I think what I'm waiting for is some indication that the boys are okay. At least we will see Jake at the TIFF soon.
ReplyDeleteUnless I'm missing something Wicked, if what is published about someone is true then the only way I could see to prove it is "false" in court is for the slandered person to testify that it is false, which would require that person to lie. Even if the burden is on the defendant to prove it is true, he would have the right to call the plaintiff to testify. Of course all of this is really moot because unless someone is really getting bad advice, you wouldn't sue a blogger like this even if it is false because it would just bring a lot of unwanted publicity.
ReplyDeleteI am encouraged that they are together since Jake was seen leaving MV on Friday.
ReplyDeleteI hope that despite everything going on they find calm being together.
I have to say I feel for Jake. He must be under tremendous pressure. He wants to come, but is advised not to do it; there are no precedents for an out gay actor in HW; and all the time the pressure from the gossip world is mounting.
ReplyDeleteAs Random tb points out the pressure is mounting, at least online. Do you think it's possible that Jake's PR people consider that latest "incident" a close call? That because JJ named Jake they might consider some kind of damage control? Or will they let this pass as everything else that's been alleged about Jake on the Net?
I think they let it go unless it starts hitting places like Page Six or NY Daily News. I would be suprised if places like that will touch something like this.
ReplyDeleteDestiny, if you sue someone for libel, I'm pretty sure the burden is on you to prove they lied about you. The only way I could see to prove it is "false" in court is for the slandered person to testify that it is false, which would require that person to lie. I work for attorneys and go to court a lot. All I can say is if you think that what is testified to in court is true, well...:) I think you're right that unless this story gets picked up by the mainstream press it will be ignored by Jake and his people.
ReplyDeleteI'm cross posting this here in case any of you don't go to WFT.
ReplyDeleteThe following was posted at JJ's blog in the Jake comment thread. S/he didn't say where it was originally posted.

I think what a lot of people outside LA don't get is that these folks *are* out, in their day to day lives -- you see them with their same-sex lovahs all over the place -- but the press doesn't out them to the rest of the country/world because a) they'd sue and b) so very many famous people are gay that it would become a pointless exercise and lose everyone money over the long term.
Random Wackiness or ????
ReplyDeleteThis was popped up on People online yesterday at 5:50 EDT.
UPDATE: Jennifer Esposito 'Moving On' After Divorce
Before everyone blows a gasket, maybe Austin's management was trying to bury his story, by giving stories about their other clients to the media.
Heph crossposting again. Also from the Jake thread at JJ's blog.
ReplyDeleteWeHo Gal said...
Chris used to live in NYC; he worked as a sous chef for one of Mario Batali's restaurants. Then when Mario was opening a few restaurants, he moved to LA the end of last year/earlier this year. He did live with Jake for awhile but a few months ago, he got his own place in Venice. He also does have a girlfriend and from what I heard, is straight. But then who the heck knows what goes on behind people's closed doors.
Austin does not live with Jake. Last I heard, he lived in Santa Monica; most recently, there were rumors he had an apartment in Brentwood.
The Jake/Chris relationship is a long one, dating back to childhood. I would be very surprised if they were lovers because of the nature of their friendship (seem more like brothers but then what do we really know?).
The Austin/Jake relationship began when they both met on the set of "The Day After Tomorrow." From what I've heard, they are on-again, off-again boyfriends and have had a volatile relationship. They fight a lot apparently but always seem to come back together.
If Chris is the boyfriend, then there is at least stability there because there isn't with Austin.
Now is the third mystery man Jonathan is referring to an actor?
a) they'd sue and b) so very many famous people are gay that it would become a pointless exercise and lose everyone money over the long term.
ReplyDeleteVevy nice of you to bring this info heph. Thanks.
The a) in that post has been discussed above by destiny and wicked. BTW, it's always interesting to be reminded of these legal points.
As for the b), I can understand nobody wants to be "outed" by tabs but it's still extremely sad that even though in great number in the industry all these members of the gay community are virtually invisible as such.
wicked, apparently they aren’t ok and J didn’t see A after his arrest.
ReplyDeleteAnother interesting post this time from a FanChitChat regular. Posters were discussing about whether or not JJ's outing has been 'cotained' on blogs and thus kept from going mainstream.
ReplyDeleteHeph
My daughter knew all about JJ outing Jake[& Wentworth Miller] before she came home from her first day of high school yesterday, I think it's already widely known. The mainsteam press really has nothing on the internet as far as dissemanting news.
wicked, apparently they aren’t ok and J didn’t see A after his arrest.
ReplyDeleteHow do you know this?
wicked, apparently they aren’t ok and J didn’t see A after his arrest
ReplyDeleteHow do you know?
(((miserable tb))) I hope you'll soon find a reason to change your name. ;)
ReplyDeleteNow is the third mystery man Jonathan is referring to an actor?
Could be that JJ made a mistake, like one poster said on his site or that he's referring to the "Unknown Man" shown in the first pic, who's in fact CF. But I get the feeling that this is the last we'll here about this from JJ...
But I get the feeling that this is the last we'll here about this from JJ...
ReplyDeleteI agree Frenchy; he does seem to have moved on.
There's more info in the comments than there is from him.

Oh, my hugs stay miserable tb but I'm joining wicked and WT in asking you how do you know this?
ReplyDeleteCount me in on the "how do you know" club.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to know too.
ReplyDeleteShow some mercy. You can't post something like that and not elaborate.

I can't post the link here but I can send it by email. wicked, Can I use the OMG email to contact you?

ReplyDeleteThe boys have had their rough patches in the past and gotten back on smooth road. Do you think this is just a little gravel? And really bad timing.
And I think Bill S. was right --
"The course of true love never did run smooth."
And there are some who say: "The course of true love never did run straight."
ReplyDeleteTrueLove
wicked, apparently they aren’t ok and J didn’t see A after his arrest."
ReplyDeleteHow do you know this? If this is true, then I feel even more sorry for Austin. I'm sorry but whatever problems they had, Jake should be there for Austin. There could have been dire consequences for Austin had the cops not stopped him (he was driving the wrong way on a one-way road). Maybe Jake called him though? Or maybe Jake called and offered to see him but Austin didn't want to see him at this time. WE don't know. Seriously, no one knows unless it's Jake and Austin.
But I find it hard to believe he didn't call him at least. Come on.
Every couple has their moments. Come on hold the mirror up and look at your past or your present.
ReplyDeleteI am sure even if he wasn't there after the arrest --sniff, a little sad about that, I can't imagine not texting, calling and talking. I am sure they did. How could you not.
Honestly -- this has been a hell of a week for them both. I am sure both would rather just forget it all together.
A closeted relationship is hard enough but if everything we've heard about them is true, they have constantly been through hell. It seems that they are destined to always have problems. Poor Jake. Didn't he mention in an interview that love has never been easy for him.
ReplyDeleteExactly. No way they weren't in contact with each other about this. No way.
ReplyDeleteAustin's DUI arrest: 'Extra' has the police report.
ReplyDeletehttp://extratv.warnerbros.com/images/news/0828austinpolice.pdf
Thanks 4:18
ReplyDeleteCan we call you Extra Extra?
Since that crazy tag from that they do for the show ran through my head as I was reading your post.
Thanks for the link. I still feel bad for Austin. I certainly don't condone drinking and driving but I don't think he was being reckless. Can anyone judge when they've had too much to drink? I guess the only way to be sure is not to drink and drive at all. I admit to drinking a glass of wine with dinner and then driving home afterwards. What amazes me is that most people seem to drink a lot more than that and still get behind the wheel.
ReplyDeleteFrom the police report
ReplyDelete6'3 and 180 -- That is a lean mean Texan there.
And to be frank looking over the field sobriety tests, I don't know if I could pass them sober.
From the report totally cooperative with the authorities. And it sounded like he drove down a one way street and parked the car waiting for someone. Doesn't sound like many picturing it, driving with reckless abandon down the
road.
Still stupid move to drink and then get in the car and drive.
I don't think I would pass half those tests sober.
ReplyDeleteWho is the witness? Is she just someone else who was driving down the street or is she the person Austin was waiting for?
And is Austin's middle name DON?
Sounds like Austy was picking up a young chick for some fun.
ReplyDelete6:17
ReplyDeleteI don't think so if you read the police report again it never said chick.
A name is so much more than an number.
HOLY CRAP!
ReplyDeleteTurned on the Home computer and the AIM page came up and one of the top head lines ....
Is Jake Gay?
with this link
Pink Elephant in the Room
No that is not mainstream media. It is just to the millions of AIM subscribers.

My bad 6:17
ReplyDeleteI didn't see the witness was a woman. I still don't believe he picking up a chick for fun.
Megan Marie sure sounds like a girl to me. Austy didnt get lucky though. Went to jail. Serves him right.
ReplyDelete6:37
ReplyDeleteI owned to my mistake. And Austin has owned up to his and will do the consequence. Let's just leave it there.
"Didn't he mention in an interview that love has never been easy for him."
ReplyDeleteBecause he keeps getting involved with the wrong people.

ReplyDeleteWe ask that people give themselves a name.
You can do this for one post, a hour, a day however long.
It looks like you are the same person at 6:17, and 6:37 as well. You used all you at bats. No name on the line up, you can't play.
7:03 No name No post.
ReplyDeleteSorry. Even Reality Bites gave had the cajones to give them self a name.
The old lady in LA. PR maybe. This is a young man picking up a young lady at 230 in the morning. Sorry but this is screaming Hetero. Sorry but this is reality.
ReplyDeleteDo you think this could have been a family, like a cousin, or a long time friend, sounds like he has spent a lot time up there growing up.
ReplyDeleteHonestly I really don't see Austin out drinking alone let alone picking up babes. Doesn't need to play the young buck for Jackson.
Special k, glad to find your site. Hope you remember me it has been a while. Wondered where you had gone. I have been out of the countly for a ~ 2 months and recently came back. What a crazy series of events lately. Glad you have your site.
ReplyDeleteReality Bites, you have every right to say a pick-up, gleaning that conclusion from precious little information available.
ReplyDeleteAnd I have the same right to say otherwise.
Please note, however, that no matter how many times you post sleazy innuendo, it won't change minds here about Austin and Jake. Or hearts.
Not working on WFT, and it's definitely not working here.
Hi Zero!!
ReplyDeleteGreat to hear from you.
Things are kind of crazy indeed. Never a dull moment in the Toothiverse.
This is a young man picking up a young lady at 230 in the morning. Sorry but this is screaming Hetero.
ReplyDeleteYou have no idea who the girl is and what really happened - did everybody take a stupid pill this morning?
ME
ReplyDeleteThere are two users with similar names.
I don't think Reality Bites and Reality are the same person.
Remember trolls are like Gremlins.
ReplyDeleteDon't feed them!
It looks like Ted is vacation for the last week of the summer, so I don't think we see anything from him regarding the recent rumbling about Jake.
ReplyDeleteSpecial, In reference to your link to the Jennifer Esposito divorce: I watched Extra on TV tonight and they mentioned that Bradley Cooper, Jennifer Esposito's soon-to-be ex, was rumored to be romantically involved with Jennifer Aniston. Extra said the rumor is false. It's almost comical: Jake & Jennifer A, Austin & Jennifer E, Jennifer E & Brad Cooper, Jennifer A & Brad Cooper - it's like musical chairs.
ReplyDeleteBlue Velvet
ReplyDeleteFunny I heard today that Bradley Cooper was with Cameron Diaz.
Is it me or HW like Jr. High?
So, is miserable tb a troll?
ReplyDeleteNo who's that she is not
ReplyDeleteIt really is like Jr. High. There are several articles out there trying to determine if Bradley Cooper is dating Cameron Diaz or Jennifer Aniston. Let's face it - stars can't even look at one another without the tabloids fabricating a romance. Must make it easy for PR when they want it to look like there is something going on between 2 people a la J&R.
ReplyDeleteAnd the reason for "wicked, apparently they aren’t ok and J didn’t see A after his arrest" post was ...?
ReplyDeleteEven if he picked up some hobag, it still doesn't change the fact that I'm coming REAL SOON!!!
ReplyDeleteGet ready or not!!
Cross posting with WFT.
ReplyDeleteI've been going back and forth between here and OMG and I've been thinking about the post abt Jake not going to MI and J&A not being OK.
Well, the 'they're not OK' is not good but not surprising. Things for them seem to be high drama at the best of times and what with the DUI and the JJ blog, etc, it's believable that they may be in a rough patch. Or are trying to deal with approaching fatherhood while in the closet and/or quasi-bearding. So a 'rough patch' is understandable.
As for Jake not being MI, if you think abt it, it was probably never a possibility. OK, maybe for the first 15 minutes are so after Jake heard. But after that, I can see AUSTIN telling him not to come. Maybe it would have gone something like what follows. I'll skip over the mushy stuff that the conversation would have started with; I'm sure you can all fill that in. :)
"No Jake. You don't have to come. No really. I fucked up OK, I know. But I'm OK. Everyone's OK. Now is not the time for us to be seen together. Yeah, yeah, I know you're usually the reasonable one. I guess it's time for me to step up. Fine, I'm fine. Everyone here is alternating between letting me have it and hugging me. Well, except for Dad, he hasn't let up. Oh, and they're all giving me a hard time about the mug shot--the guys especially. {groan} I know, I know it was stupid. And you can tell me repeatedly when we see each other again. But I'm OK, really."
And Austin proves it by going on to discuss other things.
OK, I know that read like fan fic, and I apologize to anyone offended by RPS, but the idea took on a mind of its own, and I figured it was the easiest way to explain what I meant. That the two are OK enough that phone calls would be enough for the time being. I'm sure they've had to do it before. It's part of how they live their lives.
Just my .02
Heph
I started to read the police report then had to stop as I suddenly felt things were going too far, although I agree that it shows Austin in a slightly more favorable light than some people would like us to think.
ReplyDeleteAbout the “Pink Elephant in the Room” link. Thanks for that info spesh, although I somehow “love” it when bloggers claim to hate gossip sites then dutifully report what’s been published on those.
Zero, how could you think we had forgotten you? I haven’t. I was actually happy you had disappeared for some time as my copy of Bubble Boy is still in its cellophane wrapper… ouch!
Blue Velvet, this is so funny. I just came back from having dinner with friends and we were joking that the best examples of concrete and efficient recycling were those celebrity hook-ups!
Even if he picked up some hobag, it still doesn't change the fact that I'm coming REAL SOON!!!
As one who’s always been rather skeptical about Baby Tile, I think I better watch my ass from now on, LOL!
Or are trying to deal with approaching fatherhood while in the closet and/or quasi-bearding. So a 'rough patch' is understandable.
ReplyDeleteHeph, I'd like you to give us your take on this. How can you be quasi-bearding while simultaneously contemplating fatherhood in the framework of a same-sex relationship?
The quasi-bearding is cover until the baby arrives?
ReplyDeleteHeph
{more and more believing in Baby Tile}
Whoever this woman is, it's really tasteless to make insinuations about her. Or him.
ReplyDeleteI think we should drop all talk of her right now unless she becomes a bigger part of Austin's life, or we find out she is family.
The quasi-bearding is cover until the baby arrives?
ReplyDeleteYeah but wouldn't it be more logical to eschew any kind of bearding (active or passive), if you planned to come out anyway? Because I take it that they would come out if they were to have a baby. And if that baby is actually due in september, why play the bearding game since you plan to leave the closet in the short term?
ag, I agree with you. Discussions about this woman should be off limits for the time being.
Talking about babies and children, I had way too much coffee last night and a really hard time getting sleep so I decided to put my temporary insomnia to good use (lol) and checked some threads at FCC. I found a Jodie Foster's interview in which she talked about fearing that her sons harbored acting ambitions. One poster at FCC pointed out that she talks about her kids and her parenting as if she were a single parent (despite being in a long-term relationship with a woman). I just imagined these boys becoming movie actors and having to go through interviews with the usual family-oriented questions. Surely they couldn’t talk as if they had just one mom. Truth from the mouths of babes indeed!
ReplyDeleteAustin does not live with Jake. Last I heard, he lived in Santa Monica; most recently, there were rumors he had an apartment in Brentwood.
ReplyDeleteWhich... puts Austin nicely in Reese land doesn't it? Where Jake likes to drive to?
Oooh, I couldn't resist. It all seems so obvious to me. Love it. Way to go keeping everyone guessing though! :)
Many people have expressed scepticism about Baby Tile. The scenario doesn't seem very plausible to me either, J&A are young and at demanding points in their careers. But are we creating a double standard for gay people and parenting? Look at Heath & Michelle -- Michelle got pregnant almost immediately after they got incolced with each other. Were they mature enough to be parents? Probably not but they had to grow.
ReplyDeleteOf course for gay people and especially men it takes a lot more effort and planning to have children, as it just doesn't happen by accident. If TT really is going to have a baby he has had to think it through carefully. Maybe Jake and Austin (if he is the bf) are more mature than we give them credit for. At least, you don't usually see them acting stupidly in public like many other young actors (Austin's DUI excluded).
Baby Tile does seem unbelievable which is why it could actually be true. Ted is putting his reputation on the line with it and so is JJ. Why write something that wild if at least Ted didn't have strong evidence or a very reliable source? We'll have to wait and see and unlike some I would love for BT to be true. They both come across as slightly immature but I can see them becoming responsible parents once the baby is born.
ReplyDelete7:05AM That post over on JJ was based on false information posted elsewhere. The rumored he lives in Brentwood was debunked when someone pointed out the St. he alledgedly lived on went through Santa Monica, BH, Brentwood and several other L.A. streets. Debunked.
ReplyDeleteAnd BTW, JJ's e-mail source was actually a poster over at FCC that used to poste on WFT and DL as well, a former TT "fan", that's why the info is nothing more than recycled BI's, they just added the clinic name (Westwood where Jake lives/HH)picked a name of a resturaunt on the Sunset strip, chose Chin Chin to be cheeky and used a well reported tidbit about Jake and Kristen arguing at that hotel to make in seem like it was new info. The "date" of the birth was from the poster on FCC on the TT thread posting, "The truth will be known on Labor Day". Some thought the holiday but than they posted a date on WFT: 9/24/07, then some realized that they meant labor as in giving birth. They chose that date to screw with you guys because ted's orginal mention of this was Jan/Feb of this year. They got a gullible and not to bright blogger, JJ to go along. Now why would they do that? Well considering the reaction from the blogs, they are treating this as a joke maybe I answered my own question.
8:55
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping in and posting. Is there a name that we call refer to you as?
I know that some of the information you posted will be discussed and I think a name is better than a number to refer to.
I suggest we name him Kristen Troll, Info Troll or Jack Thomas.
ReplyDelete8:48AM: A gossip blogger has no reputation to put on the line, not even Ted. You are dealong with a BI. JJ got his info from reading ted's BI's, that's his "source". BI's are lawsuit proof as well. Besides, he never gave a birth date, he just said they were planning. The end of Sept. will come and go and he still has them planning to fall back on, JJ will by then move on to something else.
ReplyDeleteAnon 9:42, I don't think you are right. A gossip blogger lives on his/her reputation, and especially an established figure like Ted cannot afford to ruin it.
ReplyDelete9:42 Here: I don't agree. How many gossip bloggers have been wrong? A lot. The fallout: Zero, becasue people don't care and they will continue to read their blogs, we are not talking about Pulitzer prize winning writng here.
ReplyDeleteJJ has nothing to lose, Ted has been around and is established, but again TT is BI and in regards to the baby time frame, he NEVER gave as actual date, so he is free to keep saying they are still planning. A procededure like that takes time and he knows it. He also knows that most of his readers are women and any type of baby talk will make tyour ovararies explode.
Alright anon and formerly anon.
ReplyDeleteCan we say that you both agree with something and disagree with others? And leave it at that.
I really don't to turn this into a nitpicking fight. This is so not the place for that.
It is all speculation.
^ I really don't want to turn this into a nitpicking fight.
ReplyDeleteThey are so the same person so let's wave him goodbye.
ReplyDeleteIn other news, the "Rendition" poster is out HERE.

ReplyDeleteGet off. He drives through Brentwood. It'll do.
Please don't feed the troll.
ReplyDeleteWell if you leave her hanging about instead of blasting her...
ReplyDeleteyowl... sometimes ignoring them is the best way.
