He's got the ring. The middle name. (Hey thanks Extra!) And heck some even speculated that John was God. Wow the(God)father? The rest of that you can decide for yourself.
Just had to give some Austy love today.
UPDATE: Austin in New Movie!
The Informers -- Hollywood Reporter
Thanks Special K.
ReplyDeleteI'm all for the Austy love.
(But Don?)
Heph
Just doesn't seem to fit him.
ReplyDeleteIMO :/
Heph
That photo just makes me melt!
ReplyDeleteVery clever, special.
I think Don is a nice middle name. This is one of the finest pictures of Austin. The best were in the Lakers 1 set.
ReplyDeleteI think Don is a nice middle name. This is one of the finest pictures of Austin. The best were in the Lakers 1 set.
ReplyDeleteSo the arrest made Austin 'come out' with his real height and a middle name that strangely had been absent till now.
ReplyDeleteAusti, all your secrets are being revealed. Ha Ha.
I just want to see a picture of him to know he's okay.
OT: Rendition poster on IHJ
ReplyDeleteThank you ST!
ReplyDelete9 Days until Rendition's premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival.
Nice post, Special K :) He was so adamant he only had two names in that Paper magazine interview, though :)
ReplyDeleteZero, so nice to hear from you in the last thread.
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking about the fallout from this JJ blogger. Maybe it will take a while before it reaches the mainstream. Lakers I was in 2/06 and nothing was said about it from Jake or his people until two months later. JJ's blog post continues to spread on the internet.
10:42: The only reason why Jake's people said anything two months later, in April was because D-listed posted that bogus coming out story on his site and the NY Daily news picked it up and contacted Jakes people, a few weeks later Star picked up the Daily News story. When the 1st set of Lakers pictures appeared in 2/06, all of the chatter was online,the mainstream media never picked up on it, not even the Daily News nor the Star, therefore there was no need for any comment.
ReplyDeleteThis is still strickly internet with the now lesser known blogs repeating it and repeating it wrong I might add. Also, Defamer, Gawker, TMZ, Jared, Perez, Lainey and Towerload, the major blogs have so far not commented.
Gawker did run an item where they concluded that Chris is the mysterious bf.
ReplyDeleteI think it won’t reach the mainstream press or sites. Only obscure blogs are repeating it and nobody believes it anyway. Not even JJ is updating the story. The story will fade away and will be discredited as another internet rumor. Nothing will change.
ReplyDeleteJack's back, twice. No feeding, now.
ReplyDelete10:54: You are mixing up the gawker story that ran two weeks ago. They picked up the ONTD post about Jake and Chris and them in MV and decided that was his BF, they also posted a bunch of other Jake/Chris photos. Gawker said that there was a silly dispute and they decided that it was Chris, they treated it like a joke. They have yet to comment on this.
ReplyDeleteAs this is about Austy love, I really hope he reads the HBO boards and sees all the love there in both the official and unofficial threads. They miss their John!
ReplyDeletePlease don't feed the troll.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
You're right Syclla.
ReplyDeleteAll about Austy!
JFC no matter how brief changed his career. He showed what an incredible talent he has. From his role in TDAT to JFC, it was a total transformation in his acting.
It shows all the hard work commitment and dedication he has given to growing as an actor .
I think his work on JFC has opened even more opportunities for him.
They do love Austy on the JFC boards. I'm still amazed by what a great job he did playing John. I'd love to see him work with David Milch again. Hope we hear some good news about him soon.
ReplyDeleteST, thanks for the Rendition poster! I actually put it in the previous thread before I saw you posted it here, lol. Can't wait for that movie!
ReplyDeleteAnd yes (((Austin))) and (((Jake)))
Stuff on Rendition, at last! Thanks a bunch for the poster link st!
ReplyDeleteWhat else did I want to type...? Ah yes, here: (((Austy))) :)
tbs is right. Let's not forget Jake. Here: (((Jake))) !
ReplyDeleteAustin is simply gorgeous. That's all there is to say on the subject.
ReplyDeleteCross posted with WFT.
ReplyDeleteNot about J&A but VERY, VERY relevant.
Trust me, you're going to want to read this.

ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing that from Newsweek.
Family friends have been together 60 yrs and yet feel they can not share their relationship with others. It is never spoken of but their love and devotion for each other speaks louder than words. Hope that somehow they will read the article.
This lady wonders if she should be congratulated for telling her story. My answer is a resounding yes!
ReplyDeleteBut our silence for all those years was also partially a self-induced caution. Looking back, I think it's possible that as the world changed, we didn't change fast enough.
Hollywood, are you listening?
Thanks for this great article heph.
National Coming Out Day is October 11th.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a perfect day for Jake and Austin to step up and bring along the truth. And maybe even Baby Tile if he/she has arrived yet.
Now, THAT would be a Time or Newsweek story!
What a beautiful story, Heph! Thanks for sharing it.
ReplyDeleteWicked, i`m SO glad you`re back. Hope you`re ok:)
ReplyDeleteSpecial, you`re doing a great job here, (though i miss you at W.F.T- discussing Austy is never the same without you`re comments in return;)
Austy is so damn kissable.
ReplyDeleteI have to agree that really is one of the excellent pics of Austin.
ReplyDeleteHeph
{wiping up the drool}
I think both Austin and Jake are very kissable! :)
ReplyDeleteBtw, there is some interesting info on Rendtion at WDW. Gavind Hood had some really nice things to say about Jake. Said he is brilliant in the movie. And Jake had very nice things to say about Gavin. Sounds like things went a lot smoother on this film than on Zodiac with Fincher.
^^ Sorry should be Rendition and Gavin.
ReplyDeleteThanks TBS I will have to check that out.
ReplyDeleteI am glad that Rendition was a positive experience for both Jake & Gavin working together.
I think Jake had some problems with post-BBM homophobic teasing on the set of Zodiac. According to Chloe S some of it emerging from the director.
ReplyDeleteDid you see on WFT that Austin got a new movie role. Good news. Guess he didn't get to Italy this summer after all.
Yay for Austin. I think he really needs to work right now.
ReplyDeleteAnd he's working with Ashley Olsen again.
But working with Billy Bob? I can see them two getting along like a house on fire.
Incidentally, I'm thinking that Jon Foster (another co star) is Sophia Bush's boyfriend.
"I think Jake had some problems with post-BBM homophobic teasing on the set of Zodiac. According to Chloe S some of it emerging from the director."
ReplyDeleteWhat a jerk! Whatever Jake's sexual orientation is (that is if he is now hiding something or not) I will always respect him for taking Jack's role. The challenge was not playing the role but enduring the homophobic sniggering after the movie. BBM is a masterpiece (thanks to everyone involved) and nothing, even the Oscar snub, will ever change that fact.
I looked it up. It seems Jon Foster is Sophia's bf.
ReplyDeleteSo maybe he and Austi will have duel for her!
David Fincher is a moron. Apart from a whole slew of other things, that sort of behaviour is completely unprofessional. Some of these HW people forget they are at work.
I'm thrilled Austin has a new movie in the pipeline! Can't wait. Sorry to be fangurly but I can't help it :)
ReplyDeleteJake is such a gentleman; you can pretty much interpret his view of DF by the positive comments he's made about Gavin Hood.
Austin will be working with Sophia's bf? HW is just one big revolving bed LOL!
ReplyDeleteSophia and Austin were friends. They dating thing? More like good friends hanging out. And when you bring you BF along to walk on the beach is that really a date?
ReplyDelete"Principal photography will commence in October in Los Angeles, Uruguay and Buenos Aires."
ReplyDeleteI hope Austy gets to travel!
It's a HW date Special. There is always more than two people on those things.
ReplyDeleteOh I know. I was being cheeky.
ReplyDeleteWell guys, prepare to vomit:
ReplyDeletethe new UsWeekly is reporting that on August 25 Jake and Reese were openly kissing at a restaurant in LA. He had his head resting on her shoulder and was whispering to her. The following day they had a barbecue at her house with friends. It says they are worried about their relationship being made into a press spectacle at the premiere of their movie.
August 25: the day after Austin’s arrest. I think this is reported to cover the real place Jake was that weekend.
Oh Janice Minn! You and US Weekly should get an award for the fiction you write!!
ReplyDeleteGreat news for Austy! Can't wait to find out more about his new role.
ReplyDeleteAs for this latest Jeese sighting... the only thing I have to say is that the timing is extremely convenient.
Here's the description of "Informers" from IMDB:
ReplyDelete"Published in 1995, the collection of loosely connected short stories captures a week in L.A. in 1983, featuring movie executives, rock stars, a vampire and other morally challenged characters in adventures laced with sex, drugs and violence."
A little more info about A's new movie
ReplyDeleteBut Jake was in L.A. on 8/25 and he still is.
ReplyDeleteAnd you know that because ...?
ReplyDelete8:46 -- Now if you wish to share Janice, share. Can we call you Janice?
ReplyDeleteRemember feeding trolls is not a good thing.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if Ashley and Austin will laugh about making Holiday in the Sun, or just try to repress that memory all together.
ReplyDeleteInteresting info about Bret Ellis:
ReplyDelete"He (BEE) was known to be heterosexual for most of his life, but in August 2005 he broke his silence about his sexual orientation and told The New York Times that his best friend and lover for six years, Michael Wade Kaplan, died in January 2004, at the age of 30. The article entitled, "Bret Easton Ellis: The Man in the Mirror" states the following about Michael Wade Kaplan and Bret Easton Ellis' relationship:
The other dedication is to Michael Wade Kaplan, who Mr. Ellis said was his best friend and lover for six years, and who died, in January 2004, at the age of 30. They did not live together, Mr. Ellis said: "It was a very loose kind of partnership. It was not particularly conventional, and neither one of us was interested in the lifestyle, I guess." Mr. Kaplan died barely a month after Mr. Ellis had traveled from New York to Los Angeles to spend Christmas with his mother and two sisters, as he has in most years since he finished college and moved to Manhattan. He planned to spend a few months finishing the final draft of "Lunar Park" and then return to New York. Instead, he said, Mr. Kaplan's unexpected death left him in a tailspin. He did not attend the funeral in Michigan, he said, because he could not even bring himself to leave his room - the room in his mother's house in Sherman Oaks, in the San Fernando Valley, where he grew up. And he stayed in Los Angeles for 19 months, shuffling from mother to sister to friend and finally a series of hotels, suffering what he calls "a midlife crisis." "His death was a big catalyst to finish the novel," Mr. Ellis said, and it probably added "a new layer of wistfulness and melancholy to the writing" that had not been there before."
Thanks GC for sharing that with everyone here.
ReplyDeleteNow these are great news about Austin. We'll have something more interesting to look forward to than the usual Jeese, ahem, "news", lol!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sad story gc. Not even attending your BF's funeral... Afraid of "the lifestyle"? What "lifestyle"? I remember reading a Jonathan Rhys-Meyer's interview in which he pondered his future and said something like "or I'll be gay and live alone". Stereotypes die hard.
Ok, one more book to my must-read list. :)
Maybe it's just me, but hearing that Austy has signed on for a new movie makes me very doubtful about the reality of Baby Tile.
ReplyDeleteP. S. I would have loved to see Austy play the vampire!
Great news about Austin's new movie!! American Psycho was really good.
ReplyDeleteFrenchy, we also have Rendition to look forward to. If people can separate that from Jeese. I'm just glad it sounds like Jake had a great time working with Gavin Hood and the international cast. Hope Austin has a great time on this movie.
Wicked
ReplyDeleteYou know never know.
One works and the other is off.
Hey...... maybe that is what Reese is explaining to Jake on all those meetings. She and Ryan had plan like that. : )
Frenchy, we also have Rendition to look forward to.
ReplyDeleteSo true! :) :) :)
I'm off with niece and nephew to see Scarlett in The Nanny Diaries. I love ScarJo but I get the feeling that this won't be my cup of tea. I've read good as well as awful reviews. Well it was Nanny or that Jet Li flick, so...
UsWeekly:
ReplyDelete“Reese & Jake dinner out!
From undercover sweethearts to unabashed squeezes! On August 25 Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal dined at Santa Monica, California’s trendy Brass Cap. “The were openly kissing,” a witness tell Us. “Jake was resting his head against Reese’s and whispering.” Gyllenhaal, 26, ate his pasta, but Witherspoon, 31, picked at her Dover sole. Skipping dessert, they slipped out the back door, only to spend the next day together, barbecuing with friends at Witherspoon’s home in LA’s Breentwood. Will the PDA continue at the Toronto Film Festival (starting September 7), where their film, Rendition, debuts? Says a source, “They’re worried about the international press making a spectacle of their relationship.””
“A witness says Witherspoon “seemed very flirty” with Gyllenhaal.”
OK! Magazine:
“Reese & Jake Painting the town
Camera-shy couple Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal were one step closer to going public last week when the pair snuck away to Martha’s Vineyard for a family vacation. Shortly before the getaway, Jake, 26 and his sister, Maggie, 29, dropped into Lee’s Art Shop in NYC and picked up color-by-number paintings sets for Reese’s kids, Ava, 9 and Deacon, 3. When Reese, 31, met up with Jake in Martha’s Vineyard, he gave the children their special gifts. A pal of Jake tells OK!, “The kids loved them! When a rainy day came along, they stayed indoors and painted all day.” Jake’s big sis, Maggie, approves of his new girlfriend and tells a pal, “Reese is the best thing that’s ever happened to him.””
Life & Style:
“Reese and Jake have been dating for months.
Should Reese and Jake go public?
Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal are doing the right thing by keeping their romance on the q.t. They don’t need a lot of drama and attention. The relationship should be kept quiet until it becomes serious. Better safe than sorry, that’s the best way to play it.”
From Crazy days and nights:
ReplyDelete"Billy Bob Married To Kim Basinger And Having An Affair With Ashley Olsen Even In A Movie Sounds Like A Party
Billy Bob Thornton and Kim Basinger are slated to star as a married couple in "The Informers," which is an adaptation of the novel of the same name.
The book is set in Los Angeles in the early 1980's and basically follows seven separate stories over the course of a week including a movie executive (Thornton), his wife (Basinger) his very sexually promiscuous mistress (Ashley Olsen), a rock star, a vampire (Brandon Routh) and a kidnapper.
Also joining the cast are Jon Foster and Jake Gyllenhaal's special friend Austin Nichols. The filming begins in October in South America so it's the perfect place for Jake and Austin to find some Spanish books and watch lots of polo because that's what friends do."

Let's see
ReplyDelete*clients Oscar contending movie with the #1 HW lady at moment also your client --easy
*client's BF arrested --uh huh
*blogger outing your client --holy shit
Being able spin this into real news... priceless.
I love how US Weekly drops that premiere date into the middle of that blurb. HA!
ReplyDeleteAnd funny didn't Peter and
Maggie have to leave the Vineyard because Peter has Lyme disease?
Sarsgaard contracts Lyme Disease
But again can you trust United Press Intl new agency over Ok! Magazine?
Maggie was spotted in MV this month w/o Peter and do you actually believe that HW "insider" JJ actually outed Jake by posting the same old TT BI's that were e-mailed to him by a "fan"??? If he was an insider and had sources than why the hell was he pimping Jake and Reese on his blog up until his gay list came out and you lovely folks e-mailed him the TT archives?? I guess you chose him because he seemed dumb, clueless and that he feeds and sometimes writes articles for the NE. Hmmm, no mainstream media attention like you folks were hoping for? Oh well, better luck next time.
ReplyDeletePS: Don't you think it odd that JJ NEVER addressed JAke and Reese after he supposedly checked with his sources in HW after the e-mail? I mean his contact would have to know, wouldn't they???
No one who follows the TT saga had ANY idea what type of vehicle Jake and bf were in when they had their backseat rendezvous nor that they were in the parking lot of Chin Chin's. The only thing Ted said about that incident was that it was near the Sunset Strip. Chin Chin's is on Sunset Boulevard.
ReplyDeleteAnother new detail was that the baby is indeed coming, will be born next month and it was conceived a surrogacy agency in Westwood. Again, these are new details that were woven into the Toothy Tile saga. These new details I found interesting.
By the way, in the Jake/Austin "bedhead" shots in February 2006, they are both walking near a big black vehicle that looks like an SUV.
3:45
ReplyDeleteWe would love for you to step up and give yourself a name if you come by so much.
Remember feeding trolls is not encourage is this Jellystone Park.
ReplyDelete(Sorry I had to get a Yogi and Boo Boo reference in at some point)
There was also an Toyota SUV that was in a picture of Jake furniture shopping with a big grin on his face in November of 2005. He was photographed at two cars his and the SUV.
ReplyDelete3:54: You are so easily duped. The SUV was added very easily, even random: It's a very popular sports vehicle and BTW Reese was seen driving one several times, something that i'm sure that popped into the head of the e-mailed. The resturaunt on SS: they did a google search probably of resturaunts on the SS and found several, saw Chin, Chin thought it was funny because if Reese. And as far as the clinic is concerned: Jake lives in Westwood/HH, they again probably used google to search for clinics in CA that did that type of procedure and there you go, it's called embellishing. They had to to make it seem "new" and they also knew there was really no way to check: The police report was squashed! And the fact no date/month was given for the incident, it's like a needle in a haystack. Even the fight at the hotel with Jake and Kristen is on public recird, i remember reading about it. I read about several public spat with them.
ReplyDeleteLike all fan fic, the writer sdo their research and it's so easy when there is so much out there, It would have been better if they e-mailed him something that had nothing to do with the TT BI's, then maybe it wouldn't have become such a joke on the net.
4:02 - Please go away and and complain to JJ.
ReplyDelete4:02 Either name yourself
ReplyDeleteOr go see JJ or place that your comments would please a different audience
4:02, our first real troll. I'm so proud. sniff
ReplyDeleteWhenever I visit this blog, I am drenched with good karmic energy. And browsing through all the comments, I see it is happening to everyone, well almost everyone. Special K, you are truly special! Wicked, you too. I am glad you dropped by.
ReplyDeleteHey Rattler!
ReplyDeleteHave your #2 pencil and notebook ready to take notes for next week at TIFF?
Nanny Diaries Family Outing: A Summary Description
ReplyDeleteAbout to leave house. Niece lock car keys in car. Hysterical mother calls insurance company which dispatches towing company guy who unlocks said car. Car keys retrieved. On our way to mall. Buying tickets for the 1:00 PM showing. Guy at the counter says “have to warn you this is a ‘baby showing’” (in French “représentation poupons”). Don’t know what this means so ask for clarifications. Well, these are specifically designed for parents with babies. Lights won’t be put out completely and the sound will be “lowered”. Being childless and therefore considered selfish bitch, consult with sister in order to benefit from well-developed motherly instinct and perspective. Answer from sister: “Fuck them! Let’s go see ‘The Invasion’”. General reaction: Yeah! General review: 13-to-25 group: Great! 40-somethings: Craig is such a hot SOB. Best comedy we’ve seen in a long time.
BTW these baby showings are really great if you’re a parent of totally tiny little bundles of joy. Outside they have strollers and a table full of diapers, those wet napkins and baby powder, a coffee machine (no charge) and microwave ovens. I never knew these things existed over here. Do you have them in the States and in Europe? I’ll go to sleep a lesser idiot tonight.
I know that PR people cannot comment on everything that's being published about their clients but I remember Matt Damon commenting on friend Ben Affleck and saying that things can really go downhill for actors when they become tabloid fodder. And it seems to me that this is what Jake is becoming with that Jeese thing.
ReplyDeleteDestiny already commented on this situation either here or at WFT (sorry for my poor memory) and said that she didn't understand why Jake's team was playing that card and what benefits they were expecting (slap me good if got you wrong honey!).
This tab "frenzy" feels so wrong with the career Jake always seemed to be pursuing or wishing for himself. And don’t tell me “the tabs made this up”. Nobody will ever convince me that publicists had nothing to do with this saga.
Well Frenchy right now Jake is far more known as 'TT'or 'Reese's toyboy'.
ReplyDeleteEither way, I can't imagine it's where he wanted to be.
When was the last time you read anything about Jake's acting?
That's part of the reason I like Austin taking on this new role. I think it starts to get him out from under the BF Tile tag. And that's a good thing.
Frenchy, I have never heard of a "baby showing." May I never be subjected to such a thing! :)

Ted once said (and I believe him) that Jake knew about TT and was proud of it so I can't think Jake hasn't enjoyed, up to a certain point, the attention this persona has brought upon him.
Deep down, I'm starting to wonder how Jake truly feels about Jeese. Is he bothered by these rumours or does the attention-seeker he once admitted being enjoy the interest this showmance is generating?
Any way it appears that in the mainstream press Jake will be known as the guy who once dated Kiki (at the time much more famous than he was) and now as Reese's toy Romeo (again a much more famous female counterpart).
As for Austin, I'm happy to hear about his new role particulary in the light of the recent DUI incident. On the mainstream front I don't think the way he's been linked to Jake has been nor will be damaging to his career. And online, his status as BF Tile has not prevented outpour of affection for him and admiration for his acting skills (see posts over at HBO).
Yet Austin still being pretty much "untouched" when it comes to media coverage, I agree with you that the more roles he gets and the more he can establish himself as an entity separate from Jake, the better.
Frenchy, I have never heard of a "baby showing." May I never be subjected to such a thing! :)
ReplyDeleteMy sister regularly takes her kids to the movies and she had never seen this either. I wonder if this is a publicity coup or a new service offered to parents. It's a great idea as long as these showings are clearly identified, which was not the case yesterday.
OT but hte banner makes my heart melt every time I open OMG. Fantastic picture from the wiping down video.
ReplyDeleteHopeful-
ReplyDeleteThanks for the compliment on the banner. That picture had to be used, that was the first one that I picked. It had to be at the center of everything, because it really was the start of them.
Thanks Stubborn for the screen captures of the wiping down video.
Thanks to her hard work she gave OMG tons of captures from TDAT and the extras for us to use.
And a thanks to Frenchy too. For sending along stacks of Jaustin pics to OMG.
So we will see more of them,thanks to Stubborn and Frenchy, in future Jaustin photo projects.
In that case thank you for everyone who contributed with pictures. The banner underneath is also very sweet :)
ReplyDeleteRE "baby showings"
ReplyDeleteThey do exist here in the States. But I think they are called Baby Matinees. But not sure. I remember seeing a story about them on Sunday Morning with Charles Osgood.
Don't think they're widespread though.
Heph
We have "baby showings" in Norway too. Even in my hometown.
ReplyDeleteSome posted on WFT that there was no rain on MV while Jeese was jointly there :)
ReplyDeleteI can verify that. Since I am up here in Boston.
ReplyDelete:D
ReplyDeleteLet me clarify.
ReplyDeleteIf you look here at the weather almanac for the Vineyard you can see the graphic for showers but they never happened. Despite the graphic,(the forecast) look under the ACTUAL PRECIP. Less than 0.01 --that's like a drop. That isn't even a shower.
August weather for MV
The total of the month was a Quarter of an inch. It has been one of the driest Augusts on record.
LOL Special, I am happy about this, means the 'sighting' was untrue - as if I ever thought otherwise.
ReplyDeleteWell, I don't think those that care about movies will look at Jake as just Reese's "boy toy" or as TT. Thankfully, those entertainment shows aren't talking about Jeese all the time. The difference is that with Bennifer and Brangelina they talked about them every day. You don't here that about Jake/Reese. Yes there may be mentions in the magazines but they aren't on the covers every week like Brangelina. I think at TIFF they will try to keep it all about the movie. I only wish Jake the best in his career.
ReplyDeleteThere aren't enough pictures to put on covers.
ReplyDeleteNow what's this?
ReplyDelete"The Gyllenhaal siblings have been approached with the idea of playing Jayna and Zan, the Wonder Twins."
So that's where my ring went!
ReplyDeleteJake -- I will get you your own ring to rehearse with. ; )
Thanks for the weather update Special. I love it when tab fiction clashes with RL hard facts. ;)
ReplyDeleteI agree tbs, at least coverage for Jeese is a bit more discreet than Brangelina, to say the least, lol.
NG, this is funny. When I saw the diaper table I thought about Norway's arch enemy Sweden, LOL! I'm not surprised you have this type of showings. Seems like Northern countries such as yours have always been progressive on the social front. :)
"The Gyllenhaal siblings have been approached with the idea of playing Jayna and Zan, the Wonder Twins."
ReplyDeleteYes! Yes! Yes! :) Wonder Twin powers ACTIVATE!
Perez on outing
ReplyDeletehttp://www.dallasvoice.com/artman/publish/article_6520.php
Nice to see you got some work lined up Austi. May you reclaim your precious very soon!
ReplyDeleteThanks 9:26.
ReplyDeleteIs there a name that we can thank you by?
Just want to agree with ag and frenchy - the more Austy establishes himself as his own person (actor and personality), the better for him on all scores.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a Perez fan at all but I think his answers in that interview are pretty interesting. I do agree with him about most of the following:
"Can you explain why outing is so viscerally important to you?
I don’t consider it outing. I consider it reporting. I am not speculating that Wentworth Miller is gay. I know Wentworth Miller is gay. One of my best friends dated Wentworth Miller. I know the person he’s currently dating. I believe in equality. I’m not going to discriminate against gay and lesbian people because mainstream heterosexual society tells me that I should.
John Mayer is currently having a secret relationship with Cameron Diaz. US Weekly and People magazine — everyone is talking about it. So why is it okay for me to talk about John Mayer’s secret relationship with Cameron Diaz but it’s not OK for me to talk about Wentworth Miller’s secret relationship with Luke McFarlane? Because there’s still a lot of internalized homophobia in this country. There’s still a lot of homophobic people who still think that being openly gay will hurt your career. And that’s not true."
RE: the Perez article - we can also ask why it's OK to discuss Jake's secret relationship with Reese, but it's not OK to discuss his secret relationship with Austin.
ReplyDeleteThis is an interesting quote from Wentworth Miller in Germany GQ:
ReplyDelete"On defining himself as a person: 'I constantly have to define myself for others. The problem is that the definitions always belong to those who define, not to those who are defined.' "
10:25AM: He was talking about being bi-racial. Also, I was on MV in August and although it wasn't pouring, it did drizzle a few times and it was also cloudy/misty/damp. Weather you wouldn't want your kids in when school is about to start.
ReplyDelete11:27
ReplyDeleteCan we get a name for this other Vineyarder.
Yes it was misty and overcast a few days. But you know there was nothing that you would keep the kids indoors for rainy day games. They are just pushing it too far in the press.
Yes 11.27 Nobody in HW who says they are straight is gay. All tabloid stories about Jake and Reese are true. Except the People one which says they are friends. I'm so glad you put me right on that. Thanks.
ReplyDelete^That was "bored tb". Bored of the endless Jeese that is.
ReplyDeleteI think we all are bored TB. Hopefully it will be over soon.
ReplyDeleteUntil then I need to practice what I preach and not feed into it.
Sorry I too falter.
We've got an entire month of Jeese coming up so if we're bored now......
ReplyDelete11:48AM: People just said that they didn't know if they were just friends are more. US magazine has been the go to magazine for this not People. People always printed the Jake/Reese stuff after US, OK and the reat of the rags do. People are hedging because they don't have an official comment from anyone, odd since that didn't stop them from printing that why Reese took Jake back story a few issues back.
ReplyDeleteI'm bored *and angry* about all these lies so I'm going to be angry tb for a few days if that's all right with you, Special.
ReplyDeleteHope you aren't angry with Jake? The tabs are like a terrier with a rat when they've got a whiff of a new "romance".
ReplyDeleteTurning out to be a good week for Austin after all. Despite beginning with a night in the cells last Friday. Then his bf/f spends the following evening at dinner with Reese.
ReplyDeleteNo, not with J or A. Just with the system and the hypocrisy, usual things - maybe feeling more hyped up because of the weekend's events.
ReplyDeleteWatching E! News last night and they were talking about Wenty needing a new love so look out ladies and Ryan Seacrest was pretending to be interested in some actress and I just thought this isn't right.
I'm not really an angry person so I'll switch back when I cool down.
Spesh, thanks for putting my song on! This is my new favorite song, everyone. Well, for today anyway. :)
ReplyDeleteAngryTB (aka Scylla)- I think it's such a shame for E! News to say that Wenty needs a new love when he seems so happy with Luke McFarlane. They are a cute couple. Even Wonting Witch, who runs the Wet for Went blog, (and admittedly lusts over Wenty and wants him for herself)supports this pairing. Why should Wenty have to hide this relationship?
they were talking about Wenty needing a new love
ReplyDeleteSo they ignored Went&Luke pics / story?
I don't think we'll have to endure a month with nothing to get us through. I'm pretty sure Ted will give us something to sustain us when he gets back from vacation.
ReplyDeleteTo be honest, I'm not sure why so many are so down. We knew this Eese thing was coming. Plus, Ted has told us several times that Eese is not for real. And he's told us that J&A are quietly domesticating. It's not pics, but it's enough for me.

ReplyDeleteRE: the Perez article - we can also ask why it's OK to discuss Jake's secret relationship with Reese, but it's not OK to discuss his secret relationship with Austin.
Right on BV. Perez reeks of double standards.

I think we all are bored TB. Hopefully it will be over soon.
Until then I need to practice what I preach and not feed into it.
Sorry I too falter.
Special I think it will be impossible if not disingenuous to ignore Jeese. Whether we like it or not, this showmance is a phase in Jake’s career that we have to acknowledge. How he deals with it will be quite instructive IMO.
I would mind if we started to have endless discussions and arguments on petty Jeese details but I’m quite confident this won’t happen. If I look at this thread for example, I see a good balance of Austy love, Jeese news and comments, general gossip, serious stuff, personal thoughts and doubts, fun stuff, etc. Also, your visible presence on the blog helps in reminding us why we’re all here.
I think we have a good thing going on and I’m sure that even bad news won’t prevent us from having fun together.
I'm an incorrigible babbler. I'm going to shut up for the next few hours. :D
Guys, JJ speaks about "outing" Jake in this interview. Its pretty intense. He also says the story is going to be in "In Touch" Magazine next week.
ReplyDeletelink
The interview is also linked at his blog.
I cross-posted this on WFT and someone asked me what was said becuase they couldn't open the link. Here is my response:
ReplyDeleteThe link is to an audio interview, and it takes a few minutes to load but if you wait it will start playing.
JJ is asked by the interviewers what is new on his blog, and he replies that he outed Jake this week and the story will be in In Touch magazine. They ask about Reese, and JJ says its to promote the movie. They ask what proof he has, and he says he has pictures from an ex-boyfriend that he can't post, but that are insurance if anyone tries to come after him for posting the story.
I have to admit I feel bad for Jake even though I'm intrigued by the story.
How mainstream is "In Touch"?
ReplyDeleteVery mainstream, Frenchy. Its basically like US weekly, Life&Style, People, etc.
ReplyDeleteFrenchy, it is a mainstream magazine and has foreign editions in many countries. I doubt it will publish an outing.
ReplyDeleteThat JJ guy sure sounds extremely confident and he doesn't let go of Jake. Do you think In Touch may have made promises it does not intend to keep, if only to check how reliable his info is?

ReplyDeleteSo JJ says this interview will come out next week, right? At least we don't have long to wait!
ReplyDeleteMy take on In Touch is that it usually does not publish things that celebs do not like. I have a hard time imagining it publishing an outing. We will see quite soon, won't we?
What do you have to do to make music suggestions through that esnips thing?
ReplyDeleteFrenchy, just send an e-mail with your suggestion!
ReplyDeleteIf In Touch is considered mainstream by Jake's team you can bet they are scurrying about big time right now.
ReplyDeleteHow would they know about In touch article?
ReplyDeleteIf JJ is telling the truth, then In Touch would have gotten in touch with Jake's people for a comment.
ReplyDeleteFrenchy, just send an e-mail with your suggestion!
ReplyDeleteGreat. Now I feel like a complete bozo... :B :D
Oh Magic Tom, could you send Ted one of your great letters so we can find out what he's thinking about this outing story?
Whosthat, I have a feeling that Jake's team is keeping tabs or being kept informed on what's being said about Jake on blogs and websites. After all, the Internet is the only place where you can get your regular dose of Jake (both news and pics). His people may not react to everything that's being posted but they are probably regularly taking the pulse of his online fandom.
Of course this is a just a strong intuition and I may be wrong.
Magic Tom. I like that. I will work on it Frenchy.
ReplyDelete7:10, Jake's people are going to issue another "laughing" press release of denial. I wonder if this time they'll confirm the luvfest with Reese.
ReplyDelete8:47
ReplyDeleteHey it Friday night, can we have a name to add to the party list?
Frenchy, DO NOT ENCOURAGE TOM!!! When his first question was printed, I had to deal with text messages from him telling me he is a god! His head is now too big to fit in any hats. If Ted prints another one of Tom's questions, we will not be cool enough for him to associate with anymore!
ReplyDeleteOh Magic Tom, did you send Ted one of your great letters?
ReplyDeleteThe deed is done. If he prints this one not only am I a Prince but I get to make out with Prince Harry. Yummy.
ReplyDeleteWell, are you going to share it with us?
ReplyDeleteTed will share it with us next week.
ReplyDeleteTom I hope your letter gets posted just so we can see Wicked's head explode.
Lets just say it involves current events.
ReplyDeleteNot to break up the Tom Lovefest : ) and when did become Tom and not Austin I ask you? : )
ReplyDeleteNew post.
"My take on In Touch is that it usually does not publish things that celebs do not like "
ReplyDeletei am happy to learn gossips respect stars
