jake, if you are not with Austin, can I have his number?

Oh it is too early for numbers - can you use letters (ie Name) instead?

Jeez, Reese, if I was dating Jake I'd cheer the fuck up!

Anonymous said...

One possibility I haven't seen discussed much is that of a Reese-Jake-Austin love triange LOL! Jake dropped Austin for Reese perhaps? It's the more socially acceptable partnership.

This is so staged and manipulated it is truly disgusting!

another uk tb... haha.. imagine 6'3 Austin towering over 5'2 Reese, "you gonna steal my man"? lol

Wicked said...

Winterbird- Austin may have the height advantage but Reese has the chin advantage.

Anonymous said...

oh yeah... i completely forgot, that chin can kill. well, i think there might be a triangle coming, but with reese, vince and jake. poor jake is going to play the "dumped" guy again to get out of the relationship?

like one of my girl-friend's reaction to KD dumping jake, "she's a mad woman, so what if your bf might be gay? that's so not a reason to dump someone who look like Jake!".

Special K said...

Maybe Jake should TiVo Oprah today -

a love triangle? interesting

let see , i think from the start he is bi so he can't choose between the two :
the sweet and cute austin
or reese this kind of women he has always loved: tiny and older than him

ok i am crazy but i have the feeling, austin and reese are smitten in front of him

I must admit after last week's Tedtacular I had the feeling something big was going to happen, the whole Toothy saga was going to come to a head - but I was hoping that was going to be a new Jaustin picture, not Jeese. Deep down it had the feeling of watching a car crash, tho, so I'm not surprised this emerged now.

For me Jeese and Jaustin are mutually exclusive. It was one or the other and it's Jeese.

Is Toothy Tile over? Not sure. Nothing will convince me that Ted deliberately lied about Toothy, particularly after naming Jake and Austin last week.

So, how to explain the legend of Toothy? I think Ted was a tb himself, and sincerely believed in it. (With gossipy exaggerations natch). Did/does he have "evidence" beyond anon sources? That to me is the really important question.

Toothy being based on bad sources disregards things like the weird Sophia/Jake/Austin beach photos of last year. Not to mention the close body language of the two guys themselves.

Is Reese Sophia taken to the next level? I'd like to believe that Jake would not go to those extremes.

The only explanation most palatable to me is that J&A had an affair. It ended and Jake moved on to Reese.

But I'd love to know the real truth some day.

First, can I say reading this and the previous thread, I love all TBs (((tbs)))

Second, profound apologies for inadvertently misleading you about the initial pic (the harmless one) when the other London paper had the PDA one.

Third, I fell out of the rollercoaster and threw up on the grass! Now I've moved to a clean patch of grass and I'm going to sit and watch the ride from a little further away.

Clever of Jeese to get the BBM bums on seats before making the announcement. What an operation!

I don't buy this "relationship", PR stunt IMO.
I find these pics 'staged'...can't wait Ted's answer.
I'm actually a bit (uh really) disappointed by Jake *sigh*

So here we go again with Jeese, blimey I just can't !

Austi Poo, we LOVE you.

Anyway, Ted's little comment today was funny:

Could that be why C was hanging onto elder sibling Ben when we were gabbing with them both at the after-party? Prolly. Indeed, be on the lookout for the newest nondate in H-town. (Are you online, Reese?)

I just need to say that I really, really heart Ringo Starr right now. :)

Anonymous said...

I prefered Peter Pan's flight with Tinkerbell, starlight and the little boats sailing over London. This has been a far too rough ride.

...Hit the bottle yesterday after learning about the latest twist and now I have a terrible hangover (physically and as a TB). I feel very let down whatever the truth is (Jeese as PR for hiding J&A or hiding Jeese because of what.. not upsetting the unique fanbase, PR for the movie?).

As much as I would like to move on, I can't and will have to see how far this goes. Hopefully better news is just around the corner.

Anonymous said...

ted's answer will be simple : he is going to say all that is crap completely fake and surely will add jake and austin are going strong!
for me the issue is not his answer but the proof he has ( if he has proof) otherwise his words won't have effect anymore

Anonymous said...

They always say things will be better in the morning. Well, I still feel like someone punched me in the stomach, and I'm still verring between compassion and understanding and disappointment and anger. I'm hoping this was just a temporary reaction to what was probably a bout of fear and panic brought on by Ted's latest. Of course the thought that someone can still be made to feel that just makes me all the sicker about all of this.

Special K said...

Good morning Good morning --

Today is a good day. Yes I said it. Today is a good day. Believe it.

The Sox are opening the World Series against the Colorado Rockies at Fenway Park.

Friends and community came together leaned on each other yesterday, last night and today. And you know that is what Wicked and I wanted when we started this. A community. And we are. And I am still celebrating Jake & Austin.

So here it is. Clip it, copy it and keep to rub the egg off my face, if I am wrong.

We know some, a little some of what goes on with our boys. We do not know everything or should we.

Yes there is disappointment, but I think there are greater reasons for such a bold actions as Jeese. If you need something to hide big you have to go big.

I believe that Jake & Austin WERE together, ARE together, and plan to STAY together.

Not every choice made is a right one, but sometimes they are made for right now.

Jake is Toothy and Austin is his Gray Goose.

I do believe Ted. You don't stay in the business doing what he does this long, making things up.

I will maintain, the Jake wants to come out, but circumstances are not making that possible. Just as Ted said Toothy wants someone else to do it for him. I think this is stepping it up (intentionally or unintentionally) for someone to do just that.

I do think that Jake and Austin can have the life that they want. It might not be the way others want it to be, but it is their choice.

The only people they have to answer to are themselves. No one else. If they can live with themselves, then so be it.

And because a smile is needed I give you this:

Red Sox Dancing

Yes they are nuts. Yes he is dancing with no pants on. And yes they are so bad they make Tom Brady look like Fred Astaire.

But you gotta say -- it made you laugh. Today is a good day! Believe.

Reese agreeing to beard for Jake, Special K? I just don't know.

My rationale was always they were just friends and we wouldn't see pda. As a tb it leaves me in a quandry.

Anonymous said...

Special K, good morning, I have to say you have made me feel better. I too believe that Jake is gay, and is tryng to make decisions he feels are best for his career. Just watched Oprah, a very good show. Wish Jake would watch it. Hope Austin is ok.

Special K said...

I think her side of it maybe for awards season and the boost of Rendition out of 9th.

Things were rocky for Reese and Ryan when award season for Walk the Line came round, but there was no letting go until after that Golden Boy, and I do mean Oscar was in her hands.

Now I don't think her role is Rendition is anything close to her role in Walk the Line, but if the supporting actress (which is safe route to go for in a ensemble piece like Rendition)is weak this year, she does have the Golden guy cred to get her nominates. To be seen with the hottest A-list actor like Jake, keeps her in the forefront and keeps her in the running. Seriously, the Oscars are more about calculated campaigning now than they are about the performance the nominees present.

This is why I think she agree to do so. Remember Reese and Jake are managed by the same person. Two birds - one stone.

((max)) -- because I hope one day you will be back to being convinced tb.

Let's see how Rendition does in the coming weeks. It's such a great film, I really think that we Americans either don't want to face the reality of what is going on, or just are not ready for it. Rendition, while not an easy film to watch, is more of a story.

People in the UK and Europe have been attacked on their own soil (not that that makes it any easier) and may be better able to deal with it, this was the first time for America. I have not seen Flight 93 nor World Trade Center, I got tense at the previews. Rendition seems to be doing well in the UK.

I know that The Kingdom has been lukewarm at the BO, and I wonder how Lions for Lambs will do as well.

Special K said...

Not to stir it up again, but this is the update at JJ Blog:

JJ Blog - Jake & Austin

Anonymous said...

Don't bother with World Trade Centre, but United 93 is very good film... but again, its' one of those films that no one wants to watch (in US). it's a shame, Paul Greengrass is an excellent director. I am not sure about Rendition's oscars chances... i am rather sure it won't get much in other "critics" awards, cos it got really mixed reviews and most critics aren't into it. But Oscars is a different game - how do think films like "Million Dollar baby" won it? It's more like who's friends with whom come Oscar night.

well, i think Oscar is BS anyway. i wonder what's Reese's opionon on Crash being used to snub BBM that year. Ryan was in Crash.

Anonymous said...

Actually, I should correct my post at 11:34, it was the second time we were attacked on our own soil, the first being Pearl Harbor, but the first time in recent memory. I think maybe people just don't want to be reminded of war, the war on terror, people denied their rights our of fear, conscience, etc. :)

I never wanted there to be a Babytile. Unless you're out of the closet it is unfair to the kid.

Oh and this JJ guy is barely literate. Who is Jake's "friend" sending pictures - to Perez!?

I feel like when I was a kid, and despite feeling sick when I got off a ride my first word would be: "again!"

Wicked said...

The question is- will JJ's story get picked up by anyone bigger?

Special K said...

I guess it is a wait and see who and where the JJ story gets picked up.

It interesting that Perez is mum on the recent events, since he was all over the Gyllenspoon thing before.

Anonymous said...

Even JJ doesn't seem to know if it's true!

Special K said...

The one point I found interesting was of the Page Six blind item. While most thought it was Zac Efron, maybe they were talking about Jake.

Anonymous said...

Of course, the Baby Tile thing isn't true. You wonder WHO was JJ's source. Some disgruntled ex-employee or ex-friend who wants to cause some "mischief" (I do think the item is sweet though but I'm sure Jake in his present he-man state wouldn't agree) for Jake. JJ really needs to vet his sources better. I can't believe he called Austin's father!!! That poor man. He was probably like "What?...Huh?"

But what I find interesting is that item that JJ just throws away--that a Page Six staffer told him the item about the leading man being forced to pair up with the leading lady to conceal his gayness is about Jake. I really thought this was Disney and Zac Efron.

Special K said...

Hi 1:09

You comments and opinion are as important as anyone else's here, but they get more credo when a name and not anon is attached to them.

I hope everybody feels a little bit better. I will probably be back talking about J&A tonight but right now I'm thinking about those poor people in California. I read that almost 1,000,000 were evacuated! :( :( I hope none of you has family or friends over there.

given his mentally state i admit having some doubt

One has to wonder if the JJ source is the same person as Teds source for Baby Tile. At least JJ was man enough to admit he was following a false lead.

The only interest I have in Jake now is how far he will take this thing with Reese. I have a feeling it won't last much longer for Reese to find a real boyfriend possible new husband and move on.

I'm looking forward to seeing Austin in some good TV and possibly a movie, Reese and Jake no real interest at all now...

Having looked at the Jeese pictures again, I sure don't see the expressions on Jake's face, when he is looking at her, that I see when he is looking at Austin.

Sorry but are you saying Austin is completely out of this and just sitting in the corner being mistreated by his famous, selfish boyfriend? Because I don't believe it for a second, Austin is part of the whole thing. Otherwise he must be really stupid, and I truly doubt he is, or is completely out of it already, and Jake is not bearding then, just moving on.
If you are saying you are a fan of Austin but not of Jake (or Reese) in general and for unrelated reasons, than I can understand.

Great title Special. I have been wondering that too: what the hell happened in those 24 hours to go from we are single, friends, ignore questions, keep it all a big secret -- to out and about in front of the Trevi fountain? What the hell? The only thing was Ted's column last week. Very clear, very obvious, very close to a outing if there only were photos. I se eno other explanation. And Jake is setting himself up for a major outing by someone else. Just what TT wants.

Anonymous said...

what photo are you talking about? the rome walking photo ?
well he has a tender look on photoshop at some moment but in the walking photo he is weird!
i want to believe he may be gay and i don't really buy jeese but i wonder if (in the case jake is not gay) he didn't simply think it was the only mean to stop the gay rumours
maybe he is fed up after all, for him and for austin
sure , i don't believe the idea of making up a couple to sell the movie, it's too late. There are others reasons
right now i don't know what to believe , frustrating

Anonymous said...

I agree 1:09 (name please :-)) that it sounds like an ex-employee or friend. It makes me think again of the theory that someone fed bad information about the baby to catch whoever was leaking stories to Ted. If that is what happened, that person was probably cut out of the inner circle and this is all just a way to try and get even.

I just can't see a baby being on the way with all of this heavy closeting.

Anonymous said...

what if the baby tile is true?

That's a good reason for the recent events in Rome.

BTW, never before Jake was outed (with name and boyfriend's name) as in the last days.

Anonymous said...

I wish Ted would tell us more about the baby, or admit he was wrong if he know`s he was. Hard to know what to believe about that little thing. I do still believe Jake and Austin is a couple though.

Anonymous said...

I think JJ contacting Austin's father was wrong. That's what HW stars have PR/management for. Surely there is someone in HW JJ could have contacted in regards to Austin.
And if not, call Jake's people. He is as much a part of this rumour.

I think this will have pissed off Austin far more than anything else.
Because at the end of the day JJ is just a blogger. It would be like Special K contacting him.

I wonder if it will piss Austin off enough to make a definite statement

Anonymous said...

the overall reaction on the net about Jeese is this is sooo fake. Not only Ted, but many others are

saying this is fake right now and there must be a reason for that, to claim something that -if not true- could be proved different. I think Jake PRs are paying to some other magazines to publish a Jeese picture and pretend they are a couple.

But you know, one day we will know. This charade can't go on forever.

Yeah, can you believe that? My eyes bugged out when I read that. I can't believe JJ had the audacity to call Austin's father.

Posted on WFT:

From Jake's Eyelashes forum.
A guy/girl who works in a video store wrote that Austin ordered a film with a gay theme. Maybe not significantor proof of anyone beeing gay, but still, his post's were deleted. And he replied:

Apparently the name of this thread is:
AVOID ANYTHING TO DO WITH MENTIONING OR EVEN HINTING THAT JAKE GYLLENHAAL MIGHT BE GAY OR HAVE FRIENDS THAT ARE.

From the MODERATOR to me:
Your posts about a gay film that Austin N. ordered have been deleted, as well as any posts by other members that quoted it/discussed it.
what films Austin ordered have nothing to do with Jake Gyllenhaal, and are off topic.
So Jake and his best friend is OFF TOPIC here? I expect to see no posts about him or Reese W. or
anyone else EXCEPT Jake here then.

A couple posters who PM'd me said my simple little informative news item
would cause a ruckus and I couldn't believe that would be true. I guess it is.

Homophobia on display...I never thought I'd see THAT on a forum devoted to BBM.
Ashamed of you, Chuck. If I had mentioned that Jake was WITH Austin when he ordered
the film would that have been acceptable for this thread? What THREAD can I post these things on?

Wow--that DC post just reminds me of the whole ruckus Lyle caused when he talked about how his waiter friend waited on Jake and Austin awhile back and their hands were all over each other. The friend who had waited on Jake and Kristen thought Jake was straight until he saw that. He told Lyle "straight guys don't touch each other like that." The DC homophobes threw a fit and Lyle stopped posting on eyelashes. BTW, when Austin was arrested, nary a word on that thread--but they will post EVERY item about Jake and Reese or Jake and Chris or whomever-except Austin whom they hate for some inexplicable reason.

I wonder which gay film he ordered. Was this an LA blockbuster?

Hmm. Details.

Florida Tom said...

Well its time. The first thing I need to say is I hope the hell Jake is on line. He needs to be reading what is being said. No one belives this. I feel embarrassed for him. Jake WAKE THE F@&K UP!!!!

One thing I have noticed is that TMZ has not posted any pictures of this little show which tells me a lot. The only question I can t figure out is why now. It makes no sense. If anyone wants to see some PDA check out the pic of Giselle and Mr Brady kissing on TMZ. Wow!!!

Now the next subject at hand. If I had a bod like Mr. Nichols I would tell Mr. Gyllenhaal to get back to the gym before he gets back in my bed.

I think we all feel the same way Destiny. But this will be hard for Jake to take back. I still have no idea what brought this on after all the distance J and R kept from each other on the red carpet. The whole thing has been so orchestrated and makes no sense. None.

Is Jake worried about his career? Does he believe the gay rumors are really hurting him? This movie bombed. He might be. Maybe he was so taken in by the publicity and fame Jack Twist brought him that he is hooked. But he def does not want to be known as the gay anything anymore. Well a pretend cowboy or a gay man himself.

ITA. I’m mystified by these sudden doubts about the existence of TT, particularly since this is such blatant bearding.

Max (ex-Convinced), I really think Reese needed Jake too. After being the sunny, lively smily Southern belle with the impeccable marriage, she found herself labelled as poor, sad, cheated-on Reese. To add to her humiliation Ryan started to fool around left and right the minute he was out of that marriage. People have said he was an a***hole, but some people have also started to question the beautiful family portrait these two had been selling to the public.

For those who will believe in this new couple, Reese is once again in love and desirable and smiling and happy and it’s so great to see America’s sweetheart happy again isn’t it? Also Jake is the ideal scapegoat if things turn out wrong. He’s already been called “mama’s boy”, toyboy, or again too immature compared to her, who is soooo serious and soooo involved in raising her children. If there is “another breakup” and accusations start to fly, I wouldn’t be surprised if Jake was on the receiving end most of the time. So for Reese, a perfect match.

Ted's latest posting on the matter:

Oh! Oh! And speaking of recently snapped duos, Jake Gyllenhaal and Reese Witherspoon were getting all friendly in front of photogs while in Rome promoting Rendition, 'course. Interesting how this par-tick twosome, who took such pains to not get photographed together before and denied their romance right and left, is now doing such an about-face. Could it be they’re trying to bolster box-office sales with a little costar commingling for the cameras?

I mean, isn’t this how Tom and Penélope did it, for Vanilla Sky? Who the hell screws after the movie? You’re well on to your next vamp-victim by then, everybody knows that. Right, Scar?


Fairly restrained sarcasm i'd say.

destiny said...

LOL Tom, is Wicked starting a support group for us poor, crazy TBers. It is silly to be so upset about something like this, and yet I am. Less so tonight, but still not feeling good. I feel like it is a death in some ways, the death of my image of who TT is, which maybe was not based on reality to begin with.

frenchy said...

I don't think it's silly at all Destiny.

I know some posters are always happy to remind us that we should only look up to the leaders in our communities and I agree we have to support and look up to them. But I'm convinced that what celebrities do has an impact too.

If they had zero influence, companies, charitable organizations, political and social causes left and right wouldn't be courting them so vigorously. Kids wouldn't put their pictures up on their walls and copy their style, etc.

Imagine if Jake and Austin had come out, with or without a baby. This would have been a first in HW and I'm sure down the line it could and would have changed lives, either in their profession or among "civilians".

Now I'll stop because I'm starting to get a little bit too emotional. Time to get back to that cool layback stance. ;)

Stubborn TB said...

So, Ted just outed Jake again, didn't he? Not just saying that Jeese is PR, but also saying that Jake is Toothy.

Or why else would he call the column in which he talks about Jeese "Just call her Toothy Vile"?

Yes, he is talking about Scarlett giving her bf one of her teeth as a present, but come on, Toothy Vile? I doubt that Ted would find something like that vile, whereas bearding is on a whole different level and is definitely something Ted could see as being vile, imo. Reese must be so proud of her new name.

And while I'm posting, can I ask one thing of Special and Wicked? I haven't seen the kissing/piggy back pictures yet, but when they show up, can you please not use them in one of your posts? I really have no desire to look at them everytime I open OMG.

Unfortunately yes. E!News showed a preview of People or some other PR-approved mag and there they have more of those genuine PDAs of Rome, some of them Jake carrying Reese piggy-back.
If it wasn't for the fact that the fgs are already saying that it makes those two "sooo cute" (which is probably the desired effect), I would say that they're doing their best to show everybody that it's all just PR.
Not that Jake ever carried around Kirsten back then, but if he had I would have found nothing ridiculous about it.
But Reese being carried piggy-back? Really?!?

stubborn where did you see that because the page I see says "love bites' as the title?

Ted used "Chew on this" and "Love Bites" for the actual Awful Truth homepage. If you go to eonline.com though, there the "Toothy Vile" title is as the first item on top. Makes it even more obvious he really isn't referring to his main story about Scarlett when he uses that title.

Thanks Stubborn. I am speechless.
WTF, Austin might be arrested for DUI but what was Jake smoking in Rome? Did jetleg temporarily bring his brain to an alt, was he on crack or what? I just cannot recognize the guy who was so charming and funny on those talk shows last week. Someone tell me it is just a halloween joke :(

In a way I'm glad Jeese are doing it this way, because they just look stupid, tacky and classless. Even if they are real.

I said a while ago that I want Austin out of this mess and I do. How funny that he'll be the one who comes out of this looking like the class act.

The fangurls can laugh all they want but after they've finally convinced themselves that Jake is straight they'll remember that this is not the type of woman they want him with. Particularly when he starts filming with Natalie Portman.
They'll also start to question if it is for publicity.
If that doesn't get them, Jake becoming Mr Witherspoon will.
They could grow to hate Reese even more than they hate Kirsten.

As for the Jeesers they'll stop smiling when the tabs start pairing Jake up with Natalie P.

The true Reese fans will have to start questioning their dreamgal and wonder why a 31 yr old with two children under the age of ten is acting like she's younger than either of them. And why the woman they tell us is classy every chance they get is looking anything but.

Nah guys, take your seatbelts off. We're actually sitting in the best place of them all.

i don't it's a crime to stay in the closet and keep your private life "private". what pisses me off is how stupid they think the general public is, how easily they can be manipulated.

even in the very unlikely scenario that Jeese is somehow real, the timing and the way they use the affair just screams desperate and tacky.

but who knows maybe it is working, i've heard a couple of "awww" or "so cute" myself. the sad truth is more jake fans feel "relieved" than disillusioned.

i don't mind jake smoking (being a 1-cig-a-day smoker myself), it's a form of relaxation and little vice, he's probably going out of his mind at the moment, he probably needs it. But please, Reese is a bit too old for piggy-back.

i do think Jake has crossed the line, even if he comes out later, it'll be never the same.

this morning i am so tempted to say "let me know when Jake has a new movie out, i have no interest in any other part of his 'career'"

*being naive* If there are pictures of Jake and Austin at a LA hospital last week now would be a great time to see them! Wonder if they exist or JJ's source is meaningless?

Well I think the baby tile thing can't be real. Promotion of movie or not, I cannot see Jake missing out on the first few days of his first child's life.

He was there for the first couple of weeks of his niece's but he's going to miss his own child?
His PR could have made up an illness and avoided him going to Rome. He'd already done TIFF and all that other publicity.
Also, he went to Rome two days before he had to. As soon as he and Reese did that, I knew they were going public.

Anyway, forget Jeese and Gyllenspoon. Those names are too cute for them. I am from now on going to call them TomKat 2

Great post ag. These pics are the lowest Jake can get. Even if he is straight they are so clearly staged that it is disgusting, tacky and classless.

We are disappointed because it is the breaking of our image of him.

I think a new stage in the fandom has arrived. Old fans will leave him but new ones will come because of this romance. The general public will buy it without questions because they won’t think about it far from what the pics are telling them.

What I find it more difficult is that I am not ready to let go but I know I have to after this. I will always believe that the Jake and Austin we love existed but maybe they were archetypes of something beautiful we collectively created.

Now, after these disgusting and tacky pictures, even if he is straight and the couple is real, I just lost respect for him. He has become a publicity whore creating this charade to save a flopped movie and create a product to be a bankable movie star.

Or perhaps every aspect of the classy Jake we grew to love was just a carefully crafted act and sadly this is the real Jake.

I believe that Jake was/is with Austin but I think it was never his intention to come out and the baby story is false.

Back again from getting some fresh air, though it didn`t help much. I will try to look at it the way you said, ag, that we have the best seats. At least i will try. Can`t argue with you about comparing them to Tom and Katie either.

Now i just want, more than ever, a photo of Austin. Without Jake will do, because i doubt we`ll get a photo of them together again in the near future, maybe never. After these latest photos of Jake and Reese, we need some balance. Hopefully Austin could make our place quite normal again.(or he`ll do the same and we`re a crazy-house).

Just be prepared because Austin could pull the same trick as Jake. I bet he will get a public girlfriend soon.

And all moving! If it is real idyll or not the itself one. Indeed a bad situation for us TB, knew that Jake would before or then choose a woman with if if only a different woman, this he! He seems all complicated, she loses his man, who better than Jake to replace? Jake has something to be repaired. it is all so unpleasant, in Italy the fangirl are not happy, not TB understand. No one wanted the Reese With Jake, I do not understand in order that in USA it is wanted so well I ask myself if never we will see again an Jaustin's image....

from NYDN:

"Don't Shoot the Messenger

Which Hollywood faux-mance is being cranked up higher as their film sinks at the box office?"

Anonymous said...

Well that one can't be that Zac Efron guy cause they don't have a movie out at the moment.

That one has to be TomKat 2.

Although I think the cranking up has far more to do with trying to straighten Jake up. All the romance in the world is not going to make people watch a heavy political movie.

I have to say that even if Austin does the same thing, I don't think I'd be as disgusted.

It's Jake's choice of woman that turns my stomach. Gah.

The real sadness in this is that we probably won't ever get to see a Jaustin picture again. I mean I wouldn't really care if Reese is in the picture with them. I'd just like to see our boys together.

Their actions are farcical in portraying this romance. They have been ordered to do this and they are they taking it over the top to be obvious as they can be.

And Oscar recognized both of them for the acting, by nominating them (Jake) and giving them an Golden Guy (Reese)?

Come on people they are better actors that what they are showing with this romance. This is their career. They are way better than this. Why would they give the High School Musical approach to this showmance?

Well when Disney who owns New Line tells you to do it and ramp it up, you just follow the Mouse's model.

Again they are playing it as the farce it is.

Anonymous said...

So Disney owns New Line? Wow, maybe i`m stupid, but i didn`t know that. Maybe JJ was right then, about the bi in NY POST, monday was it?

Anonymous said...

The thing about Babytile is that we can all see JJ is an idiot for simply accepting the word of an e-mailer, as he seems to have done. Then he just sort of shrugs and says "dunno" rather than trying to check it out. As for calling Austin's father :-0

But if BabyTile turns out to be false then it's going to cast serious doubt on all aspects of Toothy for non-tbs, as Ted's source may have been the same one. (Though I suspect he had different ones at different times.)Hopefully, Ted does more checking.

Still don't know where I stand on Jeese and bearding.

I get the same feeling about these photos as I did about the Mance photos: WTH is going on? I never understood what the summer of Mance was all about. Was it to boost Lance's HW career or plain hero worship/friendship from Jake? It seemed just as calculated and PRish as this.

It seems to me Jake is no stranger to selling out himself for the sake of his career. Therefore the Reese pictures should be no surprise. The saddest thing is that if anyone could come out in HW it would be Jake who seems to be adored by next to everyone and his current star image doesn't even require straightness. If he really is in a relationship with a man this is utterly disgusting, if he is really with Reese tacky.
