"Alright everyone. We are all here to day because of a mandate of the studio for a professional therapist to be on the set and available at all times to help defuse some of the situations during filming. Many of you have already been contacting your own support systems but the studio, backers and insurance company feels that group sessions are mandatory until the films wraps."
"Oh yeah blame me. Caan walked out on his own."
"We are not here to place blame, we are here to make sure the studio finishes paying for this movie. "
"Our sessions will be completely confidential. What is said can not be used on the set or anywhere else. We will use a variety of ways to express our feelings and frustrations. And find some resolution"
"With this group we will use a variety of techniques to express yourself in constructive and appropriate ways. There will be no name calling, abusive language, bullying, threats or physical altercations.
Since we have some how have issues centering on expressing themselves we ar
e going to use puppets so that we can expressive all of our feelings."
"They're socks!"
"I am not putting a sock on my hand."
Oh you won't put a sock on your hand what are you too good for sock puppets.
"They're disgusting!"
"I know you are but what am I?"
"Hey stop taking my shtick"
"And those dog toys you throw aren't?"
"Oh you won't put a sock on your hand what are you too good for sock puppets."
"Okay Okay, everyone this is exactly while we are here."
"Yes they are are - sadly the studio gave us a limited budget and we blew it all on the Rock'em Sock'em robots for conflict resolution."
"This is a safe place for free and open dialog. You can say whatever you feel needs to be said. There will be no retaliation for what is said here.
Now the studio needs you to sign this paperwork saying they are not responsible for any thing and absolves them from all legal action. Sign here, here and here. "
"What is this here?"
Oh that, well that is that if the group therapy doesn't work, they will bring in Alec Baldwin.
"Hey! That's great, he helped me. But don't get him yet, I want to try those Rock'em Sock'em Robots. "

Maybe Jake will take his sock puppet home and find somewhere else to wear it. Maybe he'll even take an extra one for the Texan.
I've always felt that Alec Baldwin is a great actor (Glengarry, Glen Ross, anyone?), but wow, is he great in that scene! He should be brought in to help the cast of Nailed!
30 Rock is one of the few television shows I go out of my way to watch, and a lot of that has to do with Baldwin. He is a scream on that show.
Alec Baldwin in Glengarry Glen Ross
Kiki and Ryan Gosling?
I had heard about this one but thought it too farfetched. Gosling seems way out of her league!
"I know you are but what am I?"
Oh Man. Too perfect. Here's hoping things go smoothly on the set going forward! ;)
I think there should have been fisticuffs in this scenario!
Someone who claims to work in the building where they are filming also claims Jake is rude

I had heard about james caan walking. Not sure about Jake, but thought I had heard he was pretty rude. I work in the building they are filming..
And check out who posted right after this guy!
Just closed the polls-
Untitled Moon Project beat out PoP by 17%. Merchant-Ivory period piece barely squeaked by Jay in The Great Gatsby. You all just want to see Austin in those clothes!
Will we hear any more about fighting on the set? Who wants to bet? I think they will try and make sure that such news does not leak out again.
Actually we didn't hear anything about fighting on the set. No details about why Caan left the set, not a word about Russell and Jake's "hissy fit".
reekers will be dissappointed cuz R was papped jogging w/female in brentwood in w/e. friend is cuter. [friend might be samegirl in strange.breakfast.pics last yr w/ pornstach/itchy head jake, dunno]
methinks the opening 'news' on Nailed production is to keep the buzz going. itll be quiet then s'thing will 'leak out' in 2/3 more weeks....itsa a game.
wierd how same peeps who blogged & went on re the SC addresseses are complaining /mad at the blog where info was first came from, saying poor jake his privacy was invaded, now he has to live in ahotel. if ya gabble too much ya end up eating your own words.
sock puppets. are those the kind that keep things warm when not in use? :p
You're right, bad seed. On a number of things :)
Lovely post, Spesh *
So what's Kiki's secret, we all wonder? She's had a succession of cute guys :)
I just picture the cast in a circle with sock puppets on their hand and "expressing" their issues with each other.
Of course if Russell's tried to throttle Jake's I can see Russell's hands wrapped around Jake's wrist, and Jake dramatizing the incident. Complete with gurgling and struggling with a his puppet dramatic collapsing.
Or if Jake would start talking, really got going, Socky would look like it was having some sort of fit while Jake is trying to make his point.
Just got home from the Sox/Rangers Patriot's Day game on beautiful Boston day. Surprise chance to see my boys!
LOL Special, I can picture that so well.
I've always liked Kiki as an actress and thought she came across as being very likeable. As for her appeal to the guys, I think it is because she is tall, leggy and blond, even if she is not conventionally beautiful.
From WFT2-
New bio of Raymond Burr talks about his closeting
"What is largely unknown is that Burr was leading a secret gay life at a time when exposure would have been career suicide. So to deflect questions, he created an elaborate cover story for himself as a grieving husband and father. He claimed to have been twice widowed—he said his first wife died in a plane crash and his second marriage ended with his wife's tragic early death from cancer. And there was also a dead son—little 10-year-old Michael who lost his brave battle with leukemia. Neither of the wives nor Michael ever existed. But that didn't stop these lies from being perpetuated again and again, up to and including his obituary in the New York Times. Why Burr chose this tactic can never really be known, but Starr offers some compelling theories."
Wow.
How do you know a celebrity is gay?
If they can't convince James Caan to return, I wonder who would replace him in the film?
Will Jake's puppet be wearing a Boston Red Sox cap? Maybe it would heip bring him better luck with this one.Maybe a Texas Ranger hat? Hmmmm. An Austin-faced puppet may do the trick...or perhaps Austin showing up on set may have a calming influence on Jake?
Just a suggestion.
Jake LAX
Home to check on Atti? Or maybe he went home to see his tall Texan? A little quiet birthday celebration a few days early?
Or maybe Jake went home to celebrate Passover?
Just Jared has more pix from LAX
Looks like Jake took off his Avon bracelet handcuff.
IHJ has pics too.
avon handcuff!!lol
LAX- you don't think that a handcuff?
no more blue phone?? [ya know, that goes with R's pink one, gag me] the one in SC pics and lax look beige or silver.
yea, I was laughing cuz I agree, it's a handcuff!! or a reese lease leash!
No more phone handcuff!
I always thought the blue cover was a little Austin reminder of Big Blue.
New from Ted
Dear Ted:
Got to ask…is Toothy Tile the obnoxious Spencer Pratt? Not that I think he, Heidi, Lauren and the group are actors by any means, but he and Heidi sure seem to be putting on an "act" with all the lovey-dovey fake photo moments. Seems like they have the perfect fake relationship. Also, what's up with Audrina? Every picture that girl takes has her eyes rolling up into her head...gross!
Kathi
Mundelein, Ill.
Dear Hills Headache:
There’s nothing we know (or care) less about than the intricacies of the epic melodrama that is The Hills, except, perhaps, what goes on—or not—in Hugh Hefner's boudoir. That said, one thing we know for certain is that Spencer is no Toothy, nor will he ever be.

Duh.
Dear Ted:
Does Toothy's girlfriend know he's fond of boys, too?

Dear Naive:
Sim, my São Paulo peach. Just like the last one.
So Kiki did know.
So is Ted saying that Kiki was also a beard for Jake or that she knew at the end of the relationship and that is why it ended? This is the second time that Ted has said reese knows that Jake is gay.
When I first read that Raymond Burr story, I thought it was horrible that he lied about 2 dead wives and a dead kid. But then I thought, wow, what a great cover. Nobody would ever expect him to marry after that. Look at all the poor man's been through! If someone tried to do that now, they'd be sniffed out in a nanosecond!
8:10 pm, in Ted's early Toothy Tile items, he says that Toothy had a girlfriend whom he loved but who in the end knew that Toothy was attracted to boys and that was a big reason, if not THE reason, why she ended things with Toothy.

Tom, I think the key word in the Ted quote is "too", inferring he likes boys as well as girls. This quote seems to indicate bisexuality rather than being exclusively gay. Interesting.
Does Toothy's girlfriend know he's fond of boys, too?
I am not sure I agree with that Orchid. I think Ted is just being coy. Ted has said that reese is not really Jakes gf.
Is it just me or does anyone else notice that Jake doesn't smile much anymore in pictures that appear on the internet? Hasn't looked happy for quite awhile. That was one of the things I noticed about him whenever I saw released pap pictures - that unlike alot of celebrities, he would be smiling and looking like a genuinely overall happy person. I miss seeing that person because I don't think pictures lie. Maybe reading too much into pictures, but....
On to a lighter note, love the Rock 'em Sock 'em Robots! That's from my era!
In addition to suggesting that K knew about Jake, Ted could at the same time be alluding to Ryan's rumored dallying with boys. Obscure tedspeak can hide all sorts of shades of meaning....
Jake did his best to be nondescript, especially with the cap. Just a plain dark bue instead of other caps that have been photographed before. Seems liked all he wanted to do was to get through LAX and get on the plane.
He did do a great job getting out of Columbia and getting back to LA and being there with no one finding out though.
I agree that Jake has not looked happy for a while. I first noticed it at Cannes. He smiled, but it was not his same smile. Pain showing in the eyes. I often wonder what happened, it must have been something big to have that much impact.
Some bloggers are reporting he went home due to the death of his grandmother. No way to know if this is true or not. Seems to be lots of conflicting info the past few days around the web. An insider claiming Reese went to SC, then turns out she never left LA. Jake reportedly in SC then suddenly back in LA. I am just sitting tight waiting to see what unfolds.
My take on Ted's comment is that Kiki found out but after the relationship was well underway. Jake may have been bi early on, or not sure what he wanted, but at some point I think he came to realize he preferred men. Or at least he preferred Austin. Glad to see Toothy coming up in the column again.
There is a big difference of being fond of boys too and falling in love with someone else.
special K, agree with you there is a difference. I dont think Austin was Jake's first. Just the first one he fell head over heels over. Enough to consider changing his life for.
We need to all email Ted with questions about Grey Goose. Ted owes us a status report.
M,
I have become quite a fan of yours. What is your personal take
on the fact that Jake and Austin
have not been photoed together since May 2007? Do you think that
something scared them that they
became scared to be pictured together?
In your opinion, do you think
that they see each other only on
the downlow? I would like to know
what you think. According to Ted,
they are still together as of early 2008, aren't they?
I too am wondering what Austin
will be doing next. Who knows-he
may be going to auditions and lining up more work! I may be wrong, but I think Jake and Austin
are soulmates. I just mean there
is a special connection between
them. What a love that must be!
I have also noticed that Jake
does not look happy at times. Who
knows what is going on? Time will
tell. If he is with Reese, I wish
him well.
"Is it just me or does anyone else notice that Jake doesn't smile much anymore in pictures that appear on the internet? Hasn't looked happy for quite awhile."
ITA. It seems his whole "aura" is off. It might have started before but I noticed it right after Rendition. Something life changing must have happened I think.
I may not post for awhile but I
want to say what a fan I have become of OMG. I think it is a remarkable job that you do with
coming up with new material every
single day! Let me just say, what
ever the future holds for Jake
and Austin, I hope it is wonderful
and that they achieve much success
in their personal lives and their
professional lives! I cannot express myself as good as most of
you do. Keep up the good work!
I also wish much happiness to both
Jake and Austin! I also wish much
happiness to everybody at OMG!
From The State.com Life & Style page for April 22nd.
Vera: I could have sworn I saw Jake Gyllenhaal eating a Homewrecker at Moe’s Southwest Grill on South Main yesterday at lunch. Oh, my gosh! I’m still tingling.
Talk: Settle down, Vera. Thanks for steering the discussion away from that boring Earth Day stuff. And thanks for giving us the sixth “Nailed” sighting of the morning. I can’t get enough of those. I would have guessed Jake would have ordered an Art Vandalay instead. Next up is Glenda from Gilbert.
It could be a doppleganger or Jake might have taken an early flight back.
Moe's for those who don't know is chain. The Homewrecker - Choice of grilled meat or tofu, beans, rice, shredded cheese, pico de gallo, lettuce, sour cream and guacamole. The Art Vandalay - Beans, rice, shredded cheese, pico de gallo, lettuce, sour cream and guacamole
