Nyuk, Nyuk, Nyuk


Goofy, silly, giggly, grinning, a laugh is never far away.

Jake loves to laugh, and make everyone around him laugh as well. Always up for a joke, even if he is the butt of it, he finds humor in everything.

Growing up, you imagine him going for the laugh - getting out of trouble with it, getting attention, or when he didn't know what else to do - make 'em laugh.

As they say "he got bones" (natural born comedian). You're either funny or you're not. Everyone thinks they are funny, but not everyone is. Kind of like, being attractive, everyone thinks they're good looking but not everyone is. Somehow Jake's got both of those in spades.

But here are some funny moments of our favorite joker:
(Just a few of the many many many funny moments)

Jake Lord of the Dance

Jake Bubble Boy Clips

Oh this is funny - great post!

I need a good laugh lately. Jake as Lord of the Dance? I gotta see that. ;) He is a natural comedian; and with those good looks he's quite a combination.

I agree, Wicked, yay for ENDA. This will be the "enda" people being fired for no good reason. I'd like to see the "enda" a few other things too. ;)

Oh no, I hope Reese hasn't started complaining about poor Atticus' dog hair in the house! :(

Anonymous said...

^isn't that why Natalie Portman "split" with Jake last year. She just couldn't stand the dog hairs. Maybe Reese can say the same.

Still haven't seen Bubble Boy just cos the reviews were not good. Maybe I'll give it a try.

"Does anyone think Ted & Toothy/Jake are hand in glove? not at the begining but after Crisp Lisp? I don't think Jake is the sweet, charming young guy some people think he is..I just feel the image is coming apart at the seams. Wouldn't be surprised if it came out that he is no better than any other young HW actor.

Just had to respond to this on the last thread. I never thought Jake was in cahoots with Ted - why would anybody want the details of their hidden private life advertised? No way.

Also that image of Jake as sweet, guileless young guy. It was so one-dimensional it couldn't have been true. I don't even know anybody like that in RL, let alone someone who could make it in dog-eat-dog HW.

Until I start hearing stories of diva-ish behaviour on-set with the crew I'll think that Jake is a basically decent guy. (Arguments with directors don't count - everyone fights with them). Not an asshole, not a saint. That's my view.

Far be it from me to comment on any Reeke photos, but the shots of Jake in the orange jacket looks like he and Reese had just finished a workout (she's wearing gym clothes as well as he). Looks like they got coffee after the exercise.

Special K said...

Hi 8:35.

Do you have a name? I am grumpy I haven't had any caffeine, so it would be better for you to pick it than for me.

Is that Lord of the Dance clip the one filmed on the Donny Darko set? If so this is a great one. I can't watch it now though. :(

Give it a try Max. You won't be disappointed. I wasn't. :)

Blogger still tells me that "Required fields must not be blank" and refuses to post my name even though I fill all those damn "required" fields (sigh).

Back to work now. Have a good day everybody.

I agree, loved Jake's Lord of the Dance clips. Papelbon is tough to beat, though. You never know, Jake might be just as good as Jonathan Paplebon, we'd have to see him dancing an Irish jig to "Shippin' off ta Boston" by the Dropkick Murphys, to be fair! That song would inspire anyone. ;)

Anonymous said...

I put off seeing Bubble Boy for the longest time because of its bad reviews, but it really is funny Max. Another case of puzzling reviews, just like with DD and Rendition.

Anonymous said...

Max, you've got to see Bubble Boy. I never thought I would have liked it either, and I loved it - it's very funny! :)

Wicked said...

I haven't seen Bubble Boy either! And it's always on Comedy Central. I really should DVR it. I have no excuse.


Not an asshole, not a saint.

I agree with your assessment of Jake, Max. I bet the same goes for Austin as well. Most people are complex beings, not one-dimensional.

Is anyone else not looking forward to the Holidays with the Gyllenhaals this year? I am sure there will be plenty of festive family photos. I wonder if Jeese will be together at the lodge this year for NYs eve. Hopefully it has been rebuilt. We never did find out who the friend that spent NYs with Jake was last year.

Anonymous said...

^Thanksgiving to go first. Jake spent a lot of it with Austin last year. I'm guessing Austin is not on Reese's list of people to invite for Thanksgiving dinner this year.

Florida Tom said...

I took some heat for some of the comments I made last week on WFT about jake and his relationship with the gay community post heterosexual Jake. Does anyone think we will see Jake dressed in drag again? Does anyone feel we will see Jake on stage with Rufus again? Does anyone feel we will see Jake at gay events such as GLAAD again. To see where he goes with this is actually more important to me than jeese.

Wicked said...

Tom,
To me there is no reason to assume that Jake will become gay-unfriendly. He has always been a friend to the gay community in the past and I would think that would continue. If he starts to seem to be avoiding things that might have a gay association, then I would worry. Remember, he just recently went to Rufus' Judy concert.

Anonymous said...

Last Thanksgiving. Jake looked happy then.

Jake and Austin go cycling for Thanksgiving 2006

Anonymous said...

I think this high profile bearding will be long term and it has to do with rising Jake’s profile as a commercial leading actor and particularly linked to landing the main role in the moon project.

Anonymous said...

I know I'm a bit late but only just had a look at Jake and Reese "breakfast" shots at x17. Looks like they're coming from the gym really rather than just rolled out of bed. And even including the linking arms pic shot from behind I've seen more hot action between cousins!

They'll have to do a bit better to sell Jeese to me. ;-)

Anonymous said...

^oh and nobody is wearing an item of clothing inside out like in Jaustin's bedhead shots.

Anonymous said...

max, I don't even see any linking arm. Reese is walking a step behind Jake in that pic and looks like she still has her hands in her pockets, while he must still be holding his cup of coffee like he did one second before... it is just the angle of the pic.

Special K said...

I didn't see them link arms at all. Her hands were shoved in her pockets and Jakes were full.

Personally I think they both got called and rolled out of bed for their appointed shot.

Think about it. What are Reeses' kids doing? She's a mom she has to get them ready for school. And from what we know about Reese she is a hands on kind of mom, I don't think she's the kind to leave the kids in bed to go out the morning after with the new bf for breakfast. Even if the nanny were there. I think it was run down get the shots and the day's obligatory Jeese work is done. Then they could back to their real schedules.

Anonymous said...

Special, you might be right, but you k now those kids have a dad too and they might have been with him? Or do we know they were not with Ryan but at mommy's home?

We also have no idea when those pics where taken in the morning. Maybe she had time to get the kids for school first. I am not saying the pics cannot be staged, just that the reasons you are giving might very well not be the case.

I also do not think they are linking arms in any of the breakfast shots. It looks like Reese is behind him with her hands in her pockets.

What-
I don't think the kids were with Ryan because I think Ryan is overseas filming a movie. Maybe I'm wrong about that. If I am, I'm sure someone will tell me.

Good one Campbell. I also doubt you will see Austin in the Gyllenspoon's first annual Christmas photo either.

Special K said...

What --

If you look at the time the pictures were filed it was 7:16 AM Pacific time. So you could conclude that they paps were out and downloading them to the agency no later than 7 AM.

Who has more info on this project and why would it be so important to Jake. Would it be a potential blockbuster type role for Jake?

Ryan is back in LA. According to a People Mag sighting, he was seen out and about yesterday.

K I was thinking about kids too.
If she is really hands on kind of mom with nanny it's still strange to go first thing in the morning to grab breakfast or go to gym with your bf even if he was supposed to spend night in her house.
I can't imagine the situation - sneaking outside while kids are sleeping?; or just tell them "by by honeys mommy is going for a little walk, be good."?
And 7am ? Hmmm, they are rather early morning birds.

Anonymous said...

open and Special k, so do you think she could not tell the kids she was going out for breakfast that early with Jake, but could have told them she was going out to beard with him? I am not sure what your point is?

Clearly, the kids were with dad, or somewhere safe, regardless of the actual reason Reese and Jake were papped early in the morning grabbing breakfast

Anonymous said...

Jerseytb/tom, the moon project is a potential blockbuster and franchise.

About the breakfast pics, IHJ has the whole set and they didn't touch.

Thanks, Gossip Watcher. I knew someone would correct me if I was wrong.

Special K said...

I guess my point is this fauxmance by appointment.

Schedules coordinated for optimum benefit but minimal time commitment. So they can get on with what they really have going on in their lives.

Anonymous said...

xonline posted the pics 7:16am on 11/7, but that doesn't mean they were even taken that day. Look at the 11/2 Staple pics posted on that site, they were actually posted a few day later. Those breakfast pics most likely were taken the day beforeT uesday maybe and most likely it wasn't that early either. I doubt that they were up that early for set up pics.

The kids were probably off to school/daycare already.

Anonymous said...

? Here, actually I think the Staples pics were posted the next day. Anyway I doubt they ran and posted them so quickly, I still say it was the day before and it wasn't that early in the morning.

Special K said...

Hey Broadwing. How ya doing?

Anonymous said...

When something doesn't jive with your latest fanfic you start twitching. You are a middle-aged woman and you actually believe that Jake and Reese got up at the crack of dawn to wander around a parking lot with a giant hand bag and a cup of coffee because there PR told them to??? LOL!!!

I bet it was mid-day,they look like they were either coming or going to the gym, she has her usual work out outfit on and they probably grabbed a cup a coffee.

Do you actually believe that they are so interesting that the paps from x17 would run and post these pics as soon as they took them? Why? They sure the hell ain't Brangelina. These pics were not taken the day they were posted IMO, use your noggin for once.

The girls on IHJ show more maturity and common sense then you old folks. Sad really.

There is today's lesson and one that I need to learn over and over again.

Ignore the troll and starve them.

But I am human and I slip. My apologies to my fellow OMG'ers.

Wicked said...

Don't sweat it, Spesh. Let this be a lesson to us all. Now back to Jausty. Does anybody know if A will really and truly be on FNL tomorrow? I've been faithfully DVRing every week, but no Austy. It seems likely he WILL be on next week, but what about tomorrow? I'm waiting.

Anonymous said...

Sounds like next week is Austin's story line, but maybe it will get a short setup this week, or at least be in the previews. I can't believe how much I'm looking forward to seeing him in FNL.

To be honest, I cannot quite picture Jake and Reese setting up the alarm clock to meet for a bearding session with X17 paps.

Stubborn TB said...

And yet a supposedly oh so private couple who "hides" from the paparazzi, going out in the morning to get breakfast together instead of just eating at one of their places makes so much more sense?

I mean if you believe they really are and were dating then the food at their homes must have been good enough for the better part of this year, right?
What changed? Did both Reese and Jake forget how to put a breakfast together?

Anonymous said...

Stubborn, I know you'd like them to never show up because you don't like to see them together, b ut it is not like they have to hide in the house and eat home made meals to please you, come on!

The pics might be staged, but the arguments you guys are making are a bit silly, at this point.

Anonymous said...

Tom--

In answer to your earlier questions: "Do you think we'll ever see Jake onstage with Rufus again? Do you think we'll ever see Jake dressed in drag again? Do you think we'll ever see Jake at the GLAAD awards again?"

I do think those questions go to the heart of how Jake is representing himself to the press right now (and to his fans). I wish I could answer an unqualified yes. Instead I can only say, I hope so.

I do think you have the right perspective in seeing the bigger picture of ENDA, and the relationship of media figures to the GLBT community, as more important than Jeese. I just totally agree with that.

Stubborn TB said...

I never said they always have to stay home. As a matter of fact them going out together and getting it wrong just about every time, making it more and more obvious that they're fake, doesn't bother me.
Although I have to say that for Jakes sake, I hope it stops soon, because he is obviously not happy with it.

All I'm saying is that you can't say that they don't want anyone to take photos of them together and then say that it's fine for them to go show off in front of the paparazzi.
And don't say they don't do it. They saw the paparazzi in Rome, they knew there would be photos if they went to Kate Hudsons Halloween party, because she is a celebrity and there was no reason for them not to go trick-and-treating in Reeses gated community. Unless of course they wanted to make sure there would be photos of them together with the kids.
And this is the same, if they really wanted the privacy they could have just stayed home.

So if you believe they're a couple, then you also have to accept that they're using their relationship to get publicity.

Now which is better? Believing that they're a showmance or that they are pimping their relationship for their own gain?

Special K said...

Thanks Meg.

Can't believe I missed it in New York Mag.

My favorite line....

"Because seriously, it would take Jake punching Ryan Phillippe in the face at Butter at dawn, and then maybe Frenching him, to get us to scamper out and see Rendition."

Thanks for bringing that NY Mag article to our attention, Meg. My favorite line is “Reese and Jake: They Like Going Outside!” I think it could come to that.

Anonymous said...

Then there was no reason to do it in a gorilla suit, and as a matter of fact there is not even one actual pic of Jake with those kids.

And this is the same, if they really wanted the privacy they could have just stayed home

To expect that is absolutely insane, stubborn. One should be able to go places and still be entitled to their privacy. So are you saying that if Jake and Reese are for real they should just stay home and never show in public? Doesn't look like they are making fuss about privacy in those pics.
Perhaps they did make a fuss in the car pics because of the circumstances the pics were taken, of which we know nothing.

Anonymous said...

just my two cents about the morning picture
We can try to explain it whatever way and no one might be right.
I have two children in the same age as Reese's kids are and I'm sure it would be difficult to find time in the early morning for having breakfast with BF outside if I were single mother ( assuming kids are with her and she is the one dropping them to school).
Or Maybe they had dropped children to their schools together and then grabbed coffee.
Late morning in the gym with Bf after hectic part looks like strange day schedule for working single mom unless she doesn't have anything else to do or it is part of her job.

Home sweet home so to speak... I almost had a heart attack when the Three Stooges Theme boomed out from the speakers which were on full blast! :D

I finally watched the clips. Yup, that's the one from DD. And the other ones are great too.

I think the NY Mag article is tongue-in-cheek right? Surely no showbiz professional actually thinks they got together for the sake of Rendition. So that's one more piece to add to the Jeese file... As they say, repetition is one key element of any good advertising campaign.

I just found out that my copy of Brick (with Joseph Gordon-Levitt) ordered at Amazon has been duly delivered to my door on November 1... but I still have to see it materialize. I hope my Canada Post tracking number will really help me "track" it down. Shit, there was also "The Lookout" and "The Sum of Us" in that shipment!

Spesh, if you got your two positives for today, please post them now! ;) :)
