Modeling? Could it be in Austin's future?

Wondering what the future has in store for our friend Austin Nichols. Seeing these new pics makes me wonder if he might try his hand at modeling between acting gigs. What do you all think? Here are the new pics in reverse order of my love of them-

7. The blanket shot. Just not feeling this one as much as the others, I guess.




















6. Close-up of Austy's face. As much as I like it, I prefer the shots where we can see his whole body and long lines.




















5. Ah, now we are getting somewhere. Long
limbs and The Ring!




















4. Love this one of playful Austin!




















3. He rocks a white T-shirt even better than Jake, I think.




















2. That excellent suit, and a wedding band? Yes!




















1. I don't need to explain this one, do I?




















As great as these pictures are, I bet some of you may just want Austy to do what this song says!




Pics from the great Hjulia and Austin Media.

  1. Even his high hair looks good in these pictures.

    You can't really top the crotch shot though I dare Austin to do so...

  3. Sorry for OT, I am very sorry but the giusipoo's video on youyube there are no more! I have blocked the occount went all lost ... Why? I believe that innocent scenes of gay kisses have unleashed a storm of protests, but there are far more daring therefore not understand ... Some of those videos have not tried them out even more, I am very very very sad, I pray someone had saved in my computer? Thanks

  4. Giusi, are you saying Youtube took your videos down?! Why? There was no objectionable content in them. Maybe they were too well done and Youtube couldn't handle it! I hope somebody saved them. Spesh?

    ReplyDelete
  5. Sorry I didn't, even sorrier now.

    The call is out:

    Is there anybody out in OMG that did download Guisi's great videos?


    And I'm sorry people have a problem with kissing when there is all kinds of even more disturbing and violent things allowed on You Tube. That's infuriating.

  6. Austin has modeled before. Remember the Rent Boy photos for the line of shirts. He can definitely pull off a modeling career.

    I think the boys are still together. If they were not, we would see Reeke all the time, not just once in a while. As it is it is done just often enough to keep the tale alive.

    ReplyDelete
  7. I dont think Utube would delete material for kisses. If the material is adult in nature, you just have to sign in as a member, over 18 vs. free access. Maybe it's copywright issues. They have been doing a lot of that.

  8. Thanks for the sweet words, I wish I could contact youtube to say that there is a mistake, videos with kisses as the last did so angry those of teem YouTube is a video as many guardabili yet, I would like to know if someone you could help me, because I do not speak English, contact: YouTube, LLC

  10. for m.said No problem copy of the video that have always lifted scenes contained no scandal, no sex! If you were their age had to decide, as happens with video inspired by QAF etc. etc.. I do not understand really how can be so arbitrary, they write: If you believe your account has been deactivated in error, please contact us and explain your point of view.
    But how do I contact them? There is no number in Italy, only one ... What should I do?

    ReplyDelete
  11. Giusi, if you could e-mail us with your Youtube account info, we can try and get in touch with them for you and find out why the videos are gone. They will want to know the name on the account, all the videos that are missing, when you noticed they were gone, etc. Does Youtube have no e-mail contact? I'd like to try and get their reason for removing the videos in writing.

    If there is anybody here who speaks Italian and might be able to help Giusi out, that would probably be better.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Giusi-Poo,

    I think someone had a problem with videos and marked them as inappropriate.

    How does YouTube handle inappropriate content?

    When YouTube users identify inappropriate content, as described in our Terms of Use (http://www.youtube.com/t/terms) and Community Guidelines (http://www.youtube.com/t/community_guidelines), they are able to flag the video. Each flagged video is promptly reviewed by YouTube administrators (24 hours a day, 7 days a week) who immediately remove any content that violates the Terms of Use.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Giusi, I saved one or two of your videos, but not all of them unfortunately. I will try to find them once I'm home and send them to you.

    I'm really sorry that some people decided to target you like this just because you made fanvideos featuring two guys.

    That they even flagged your private videos that have nothing to do with J&A or even Jack&Ennis, is just really, really fucked up. I hope you can somehow get them back.

  15. How sad is it that people do this is about someone who is been recognized for his commitment to First Amendment rights and the Freedom of Speech and Expression.

    Oh the irony!

    The Freedom of Speech is the greatest freedom created. I don't think people realize what their lives would be like without it. Even to those who use it indiscriminately to get rid of things they don't personally like.

    You may not agree or like what others do or say, but they have the right to do or say them. Just much as you have the right to voice your opinion and say that what you don't like. It is when you take that right away and try to silence people is when you start to undermine the foundations of a open and free society.

  17. We had to take down the Video View link to Giusi's videos, since they have removed from Youtube. We are hoping they will be online again soon, and when that happens we will be linking to them, as long as that is okay with Giusi.

    Giusi, please let us know what we can do to help you with this.

    Spesh and I were talking and we thought we remembered that Zero speaks fluent Italian. Zero, if you are around, would you be willing to help us and Giusi with this? We might just need a bit of help with translation. Please e-mail if you are.

  19. To our Italian speakers or others who want to help Giusi out. Contact us here for her email address.

    I just don't want to see Giusi get trolled.

  20. I find it hard to believe that Youtube would remove those videos. There are so many with guys kissing that are on there. I wished I had saved those videos. Sorry Guisi.

    Wicked you can't post that last photo of A anymore. My heart can't take it. It drives me crazy. Like Jake would give that up. Yeah right.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Is that last one everybody's favorite? Anybody want to give their order of favorites for these pics?

    ReplyDelete
  22. Not only is number 1 my favorite of the bunch, but I would also have to list it as one of my all-time favorites. I really like all of them. Artistically I find No. 7 very interesting, but you can't see Austin that well. And I like the sense of fun in number 4.


    Sorry to hear about your videos guisi, that is just terrible. Unfortunately I haven't figured out how to save videos on my computer yet, so I'm always at the mercy of the source.

    ReplyDelete
  23. I love the day-bed one best. Then the last one, and the ladder - the rest maybe all together. They are wonderfully uncontrived and I like the idea of Austin bringing his own accessories :)

    Haven't tried the YouTubes yet :(

  29. New IHJ Jake pics in NYC shopping alone and looking spry Mar 4. In the daytime, light coloured pants, need I say more. But don't get your hopes up, not commando. dammit. :( Still yummy tho jus look at the boy's face.

    ReplyDelete
  30. another Jake pic, I haven't seen it before. I got the link from IHJ

    Jake Gyllenhaal has breakfast with his bodyguard at L'Express in New York. 03.04.08

    http://i27.tinypic.com/2iuvui8.jpg

    (Sorry, I have no idea how to make it clickable)

    Well, Jake had breakfast with the BG, interesting, what do you think? (no beard around).

    ReplyDelete
  31. Why was he with his bodyguard that morning? He isn't with him when he is shopping but there is a picture of him having breakfast with his bodyguard.

    And in the shopping pics he has an odd look on his face that I wouldn't call spry.

    ReplyDelete
  32. without Reese in these pics! 3/4 was the day she was at the U. N., right? So he could just relax!

    ReplyDelete
  33. And in the shopping pics he has an odd look on his face that I wouldn't call spry.

    I think Jake looks mischievious in those pics!

    ReplyDelete
  34. If that was taken on 3/4 in NY and in the morning/daytime then it was the same time that Reese was doing the Today show and made an appearence at the UN later on.

    There are already pics on that thread of Jake shopping alone on that same day or I shouls say running from his car into his hotel.

    I thought he only travelled with his BG when he was doing press, and does anyone remember seeing the BG in any of the other photos last week? I just remember seeing the driver that was driving them around.

    ReplyDelete

  36. See what I get for writing a missive about Austin' pictures. Now have to go look at Jake in NYC now.

    I do like the daybed/lounge chair shot best. Not only for the subject matter but overall feel of the picture. That hazy blur that could translate to many things. I like that slight over exposed burn out quality.

    Next have to go with the popular choice. It is a great shot. There is a real dichotomy of such an aggressive pose from someone lying on the ground full clothed. Talk about being to point in this one.

    Third is the the picture of him walking toward the camera in the suit and tie with the "have we seen this ring before" ring. Again assertive and very confident. Totally comfortable and at ease.
    With his posture, his hands create a very sexual assertiveness - subconsciously or otherwise.

    He comes off in these very confident and assured. He knows he's it and he is so working it for the camera.

    ReplyDelete
  37. okay maybe spry wasn'r the right word but it was the only one I could think of! Wicked, mischieveous is a good word. And yea, he looks happy and relaxed. That's what I was thinking, he was w/o Reese, that was the day she was out selling Avon at NBC Today show and UN PR.

    Another thing, is that store for men? Cuz I don't remember Jake wearing anything new on that trip, jus the same old stuff all week long. Hmmm. *maybe he was shopping for a just-because gift*

    Jake at lunch with BG. Could be to say hello, discuss plans? But he has no red carpet plans. Another hmmm.

    ReplyDelete
  38. When I go over to WFT, there is no content, it is just black. Am I the only one?

    Works OK for me. If you want to check out comments:

  39. Is it me or do those khakis look a bit long for him? He's almost walking on them!

    ReplyDelete
  40. Plaid Shirt thought he only travelled with his BG when he was doing press, and does anyone remember seeing the BG in any of the other photos last week? I just remember seeing the driver that was driving them around.

    I didnt see pics of the driver, do you have the link or remember where they were?

    Maybe BG was hired by PR for the NYC BS. :D
    But unless BG was in other pics that week it coulda been just a Jake/BG hello/get together/whatever breakfast. Because if BG was hired for Reese he woulda been with her at NBC/UN.(looks like breakfast w/Jake was at same time Reese was selling Avon)

    ReplyDelete
  41. Marie K, thx for the BG pic.

    ReplyDelete
  42. I think the BG is actually some one involved with his PR agency, doesn't mean he doesn't provide that but I thought he was more than just a body guard but also an official escort who know the itinerary and make sure you stay on it. Same PR company for Reese if I am not mistaken (surprise!) It is likely that he was there to help with the whole Avon thing. I am sure the time was chargeable to the Avon account.

    ReplyDelete
  43. It would be nice to think he was picking up a little gift for a certain someone wouldn't it.
    My favourite Austin pic is number 1although all of them are superb.

    ReplyDelete
  44. I think Austin would make a superb model, although it would probably be a bit below him. A few days ago I passed this shop

    https://www.jaeger.co.uk/index.cfm?page=1014

    and actually did a double take because I thought it looked so like him. Seems that the Austin style is very much in fashion.

    (actually I think I'd love to see him in some Hugo Boss adverts)

    ReplyDelete
  45. Observation about Jake shopping in NYC. If you look at him coming out the door you can see the deadbolt sticking out of the door. Either Steven Alan buzzes you in, or he was there outside the regular hours to shop.

    ReplyDelete
  46. Having just checked out the website it doesn't seem that exclusive to buzz people in, quite nice stuff though, maybe there was just something wrong with the lock.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Giusi, yay, you got one back! Excellent!

    I have to share this with you all; I already shared it with Giusi via e-mail. I called YouTube to see if we could find out why Giusi's videos were taken down. But I wasn't able to talk to anybody because they don't have live customer service! I was shocked by this.

    ReplyDelete
  48. Ryan Phillipe is on the cover of Angeleno magazine promoting his new film. In the cover story, he talks about how dark and depressed he was during the divorce and how he can relate to what Heath Ledger went through before he died. But he says now that darkness is over.

    ReplyDelete
  49. (((Giusi))) I love your videos so much. Let's hope somebody will come up with copies of them.

    I never thought YouTube would do such an outrageous thing. This is totally unacceptable and I agree a downright attack on Freedom of Speech.

    I read an interview recently of Chad Hurley, one of YouTube's cofounders, in which he was saying that he loved it because YouTube "allowed people to connect". Apparently he forgot to mention that you are allowed to connect as long as no bigots, narrow-minded (or perhaps vengeful?) people are inconvenienced by your stuff, in which case YouTube gladly bows down to their whining and deletes your stuff.

    And the fact that they don't have any live customer service is outrageous too. :( :(

    Ok, on to more clement skies - favorite Austin shots:

    #4 because:
    a) Playful feel as Spesh points out.
    b) Love the guy in a suit.
    c) The shirt is not impeccably tucked in the trousers.
    d) The shoes don't match.
    e) He looks like a man who looks like a child who looks like a happy rabbit frolicking in the grass.

    Second position: a tie between #1 and #3.

    #1 I would have chosen even if we didn't get the "down-below" part because he exudes class in a very relaxed way.
    #3 because he looks very good and natural, in spite of the ladder, which could have caused the whole setting to look artificial (remember when they threw an axe and a guitar at Jake during that Interview photoshoot?)

    And Special, I have to disagree with you. I think Jake in a white T is simply unbeatable. :D

    ReplyDelete
  50. Hey Frenchy -- that was Wicked who said that about Austin looking better in the white t than Jake. Personally I don't think he keeps his t-shirts on long enough to be considered for the comparison. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

  51. Hey Frenchy -- that was Wicked who said that about Austin looking better in the white t than Jake.

    Sorry for the confusion Special!
    Talking about t and shirts, the more pics we get, the more I realize I much prefer Austin in a suit or in something with long sleeves, one of my all-time favorites - if not MY all-time favorite being the sailor look. :)

    ReplyDelete
  52. And the fact that they don't have any live customer service is outrageous too. :( :(

    Here's the scary part about it- YouTube is a Google product, as is Blogger. The number given to get in touch with YouTube is the number for Google itself. So that means that Google has no live customer support!

    ReplyDelete
  53. YouTube is a Google product, as is Blogger. The number given to get in touch with YouTube is the number for Google itself. So that means that Google has no live customer support!

    And to think that these days hundreds of thousands of people waste their time watching endless PowerPoint presentations repeating ad nauseam that customer service is the key to growth and profits!

    BTW, I found some interesting stuff on Wikipedia about YouTube. Apparently they are pretty lenient with a certain catetory of people:

    On December 18, 2007, CNN reported about the prevalence of Neo-Nazi Propaganda and Holocaust Denial videos on YouTube. Hundreds of Nazi and SS glorifying, Holocaust denying, anti-semitic and racist videos have been brought to the attention of both YouTube and its parent company Google Inc. and by the German Zentralrat der Juden ("Central Council of Jews"), which did "not get any response". The first reports about the violation of YouTube's own rules surfaced in August 2007 after the German TV-magazine Report Mainz reported that even over a hundred complaints by the federal Jugendschutz.net watchdog to YouTube about videos forbidden by German law had not been answered and that the flagged content had not been removed by YouTube. Some of the flagged videos have been online for over a year. CNN contacted Google specifically about a 6 part video series of Holocaust Denial videos, which Google promised to "block immediately", but over five weeks later (and as of January 17th, 2008) were still available. At some point between then and the 9th of February 2008, the video was taken down for a "terms of use violation".

    Jake does look like he is up to no good in those photos. Enjoying his time alone. His face reveals all. Maybe more pics will surface.

    I do like photo #1 the best. Provocative. A bit wanton, even though he is fully dressed. Actually, the pose causes me to undress him completely in my mind's eye. I wonder if he gave Jake a copy.

  61. Reese's next project is voice over for animated film Monsters vs Aliens. Voice only, body not needed. Makes me wonder about possible pregnancy. But maybe she got the role because she can't get any thing else, or cuz its easy? Or maybe no one wants to work with her. gawd I hope its not because she doesnt want to be filmed when preggers. :(

    ReplyDelete
  62. She is joining a long list celebrity parents that have made animated movies.

    Maybe she is doing what many celebrities do and make a movie that her kids can go see and enjoy.

    ReplyDelete
  63. It's possible Reese just wants to try something different.

    Special K, I'm leaving all timelines to you from now on. What you said in the previous post about the reconciliation makes tons of sense.

    Re the photos. Obviously number 1 is right up there but I like the close up of his face the best. That's mainly because I'm a face person more so than a body person. I've never understood people who thought Austin had a plain face. It has so much character in it. That's something he and Jake have in common.

    ReplyDelete
  64. Thanks M!

    Pink Is The New Blog Penelope review:

    Unfortch for us the movie was pretty unwatchable. Without exaggerating too much, it had to be in the top 8 of all time bad movies I've ever seen. The movie, which tells the tale of a girl cursed with a pig nose, has a fairytale feel about it which should've been enough license for them to do the story properly ... that wasn't the case. There were minor problems (like you couldn't tell where or when the story took place) and major problems (Reese Witherspoon as a gruff streetwise-talking tough chick is even more unbelievable than the girl with the pig nose) which had me cringing the whole time (add to that ... the damn pig nose didn't even look that real! As the focal point of the entire movie, they could've made it look better, I thought). As the story started wrapping up, I had to exclaim out loud how DUMB the whole thing was ... I'm sorry, I couldn't contain myself :( I can't say a good thing about any of the acting performances ... they were all pretty bad IMHO. I was bummed that the movie was so painful to watch ... the only thing I can think is that it got made solely because Reese produced it. I simply cannot recommend it at all. I will end on a positive note ... the soundtrack was very good. I really liked the music used in the movie ... that was all I liked.

  68. ...March 01, 2006 - Reese Witherspoon is staring in an upcoming horror-ish movie called Our Family Trouble ...

    ... Reese Witherspoon, who recently bailed on the remake of Bunny Lake Is Missing, has come back to do another remake, the 1939 romantic comedy Midnight. In addition to starring in the feature, Reese will also be acting as producer as well...

    ... she is also slated to star in the romantic comedy Sammy in 2008...


    Looks like Reese has a problem with new projects.
