Happy Birthday Austin!
Another reason to celebrate, this time for the Tall Texan

And who brings a smile to some special like no other person can.
It is fitting that we send him birthday wishes like those for Jake.
One of laughter and one of love

Special thanks to Hjulia at Austin Media, and Spooky2th at Austin Nichols Journal for all the great pictures they have found of Austin, that are used in the collage.
Someone else remembered Austy's birthday too! We're not the only ones.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday Austin! I was so happy to see that Austin is talking to Milch again about working on the police show and that he was also in talks about another movie. And, of course I was happy that Austin has a sex scene with a guy in The Informers! Wonder what Jake thinks about that?
Click on the collage to make it bigger. It looks fantastic. Thanks, Spesh!
ReplyDeleteIn addition to being Austin's birthday, today is also WDW's first anniversary. Happy anniversary WDW and thanks for all your hard work.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday Austy!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday WDW!
And a happy day to all the rest of you! :D
Happy birthday Austin!
ReplyDeleteHope you have a wonderful day and good luck with the police project with Milch.
Simply beautiful...
What is Austin now? 28? Hope he has a good one.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to see that cop show with Milch comes to fruition for Austin - I think he works well with him, and it's a prestige gig compared to a lot of tv shows.
Not surprised by the rumored m/m sex scene in The Informers - this is from a Bret Easton Ellis book after all, and he's kinda bi. (Well, he's had affairs with men, but doesn't really define himself as queer AFAIK. Wonder if Austin identifies with that?)
Tryin to get ready for work, but had to get on here & send out wishes for a happy birthday to the Birthday Boy!
ReplyDeleteThat's a wonderful collage, just what one needs to give a jumpstart to an otherwise early morning
Happy, happy Birthday, Austin! Hope you spend it with those you love, and wishing you lots of happiness, love and laughter. :*
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to WDW too!
Beautiful collage, guys! All of Austin's upcoming film projects sound great, I want to hear more about Earthquake Weather, and of course, the Milch project sounds wonderful, and The Informers. :)
Happy birthday Austin!
ReplyDeleteHope you get to spend it with Jake and the new projects work out.
And isn't it just like Austin to be giving us the present of finding out that he did a sex scene with a guy in the Informers on his own birthday instead of the other way round?
That collage is amazing, Austin really keeps on getting more and more stunning.
Happy Birthday Austin! Looking forward to all your future endeavors. Those may change, but may your heart stay constant. Hope Jake and all your family and friends are there to share the day with you.
ReplyDeleteThat collage is fab-u-lous! *snaps*
Happy Birthday to WDW, too! A year goes by so fast...
Happy, Happy Bithday Austin!
ReplyDelete*fingers crossed for new projects*
Happy Birthday Austin!!

Thanks to Dani, Austin's original #1 fan, for the great news!
And of course happy anniversary to WDW - hope you enjoy tonight :)
Wishing Austin a Happy Birthday. I hope he has a great day. Birthdays are fun!
ReplyDeleteHappy b-day to WDW as well.
I've never heard such an intense version of a Happy Birthday song. It sounds so heartfelt. I'll have to google this artist.
Happy birthday to Austin & lots of love and happiness!
ReplyDeleteFantastic news about The Informers and his maybe future projects. Can't wait to see bisexual Austin on screen :)
I haven't had much time to post lately, but I couldn't miss Austin's birthday.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Austin! Hope you have a great day and a great year.
Thanks for the updates about new Austin projects. I'd love to see him working with Milch and in a new movie. I'm still reeling from the Informers tidbit though I wonder where Dani got her info. Now I really can't wait for that movie to come out.
BTW, DListed also remembered Austin. He's listed under the Birthday Sluts entry.
Happy BIrthday Austin. May your
ReplyDelete28th year bring you great projects and happy times with you man.
Thanks Special for such a great collage. And thanks again to Hjulia and Spooky for the pictures that went into it.
Wonder if Earthquake Weather is based on this novel?
ReplyDeleteLove the collage - thanks Special, Spooky and Hjulia.
Happy Birthday Austin
ReplyDeleteMaybe there always be a ring on your finger and love in your heart.
And may there alway be a great movie to watch. (and be in too)
Congratulations special k with your wonderful picture post! I adore it.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday Austin, I hope you have a great day and an even better year to come ;)
Happy Birthday Austin. I hope the one that loves you called to tell you so. We know he loves you.
ReplyDeleteAustin as a cop. I'll take it. And even better if it's HBO where we can see some hot sex scenes. Milch does owe him one after JFC.
After BBM no major gay roles followed but it seems to be opening up a bit. Milk, Ang's new movie, and the one with Jim and Ewan. Three films with gay characters in the works. Very promising.
Yes and they're all mainstream films. The only one that seems like a love story, albeit an offbeat one, is the Jim/Ewan movie.
ReplyDeleteLuke and Noah finally kiss!
ReplyDeleteI dropped in to say Happy Birthday to Austin, I only remember that it is today because it is so close to mine lol
ReplyDeleteI hope everyone is having a good day.
There were actually some tonadoes in Texas today, lots of damage...
Nice to see you, Canadian-TB!
ReplyDeleteWhat are your wishes for Austin in the coming year? My wish, and it is selfish, would be that he gets a big part in the Milch cop show, so I can see him every week. JFC spoiled me and now I miss him.
Happy Birthday Austin!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm really looking forward to seeing The Informers ;D
I had an incredibly vivid dream about Jake and Austin last night, in which I helped them hide from the paps and babysat their baby daughter Lucy...
Baby daughter Lucy?
ReplyDeleteWow, that was quite a dream!
LOL! pie chart :D *
ReplyDeleteOne of my wishes is that Austin visits Europe for work and I know I speak for Spooky, meg, hjulia, giusi and many others too :D
Wow, blue velvet, I hope so ... I'm already casting him based only on the synopsis :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Austin. Wherever you are, hope you are having a great day
ReplyDeleteAnd Happy Birthday WDW
Nice collage. :)
So many things I want to wish for. A big role in the Milch series for starters, and based on the description of the book, I'd love to see Austin in a movie like Earthquake.
ReplyDeleteBut probably my biggest wish is for him to be free to live his life the way he wants, and not literally locked up somewhere away from public view as he seems to have been the past year. And by that that I don't even mean coming out.
The story line on the show Law & Order Special Victims Unit caught the attention of some up here in New England.
ReplyDeleteInside Track: 'SVU' Closet Case
Hope Austin is having a fab birthday, anyone that gorgeous, talented and cute deserves to.
ReplyDeleteHoping that the new Milch thing works out and is really successful, it sound really good, and yes London, lets get him over to Europe, I just love the idea of Austin lapping up some serious old Europe culture.
Also the montage if superb, Austin really does get better looking as he gets older.
Guess shirts will not be on the birthday gift list, huh.
ReplyDelete"Well, he's had affairs with men, but doesn't really define himself as queer"
ReplyDeleteBret is in a longterm relationship with a man.
Sorry - I realized that his partner had died. Was in a longterm relationship.
ReplyDeleteAustin, on your day, I hope that our, your most ardent and spellbound fans, hugs and kisses aren't the only ones you receive today.
ReplyDeleteCop or no, I'll take Austin any way I can get him! Something else I have in common with Jake, I suppose.
Love the college, youse guys!
Blogger will be out for about 10 minutes at 7 pm OMG time for maintenance.
ReplyDeleteForgot to say thanks to Spesh for the great collage and to Giusi for the Austin birthday video.
Happy Birthday Austy. I hope you are spending it with Jake.
ReplyDeleteSo cool Austy is a birthday slut.
I love the pics. Really nice.....
Little Tidbit from Ted.
ReplyDeleteLoved Jeanne Wolf’s Parade piece about Patrick Dempsey having “pec envy” over Grey’s Eric Dane. Patrick went to great lengths to tell J.W. how he doesn’t want to be ripped for TV or anything like that. Is that so? Dude’s spent many a sweaty sesh right next to my not entirely ripped ass (don’t go there, folks), preening and pumping away. Dempsey’s as self-obsessed as the rest of us, no more, no less.
Except, maybe for Jake Gyllenhaal. Mr. G used to strut and stretch right next to Dempsey, me and Tobey Maguire, all at the same pumping station. Dempsey outdid us all, particularly the half-butt workout Jakey, no question. P.D. never stops. He be fibbin’ to poor Jeannie!
Destiny, Austin is a big boy. I am sure he doesn't have to be locked away anywhere, or be anywhere, he doesn't want to be.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Austin!! hope your next year brings happiness. :*
ReplyDeletegreat Austy collage btw!!
ReplyDeleteGoogle alert sent me a site that is celebrating Austin's Birthday.
ReplyDeleteTwinkee: Cream Topped Smoothie
Yup Austy is their Twinkalicious Birthday boy. And they are showing him with his sweet Tooth.
But looking at the picture I thought it looked familiar. And it was.
Why? Because it's a picture from here on OMG that I made. (No)Shirt Tales
Did I read that Ted mention correctly? He used to workout in the same gym as Jake? Then all the more reason to believe Ted has first hand info.
ReplyDeleteI do like the idea of Austin going to Europe. He said he wanted to see Italy so those Rome reeke pics really pissed me off.
At first I thought that site was going to have to do with dessert. It was not nice of them to not credit OMG
ReplyDeleteI felt pissed for the same reason M. And this is just an example of what I was talking about earlier. Yes Austin is an adult and made a decision to go along with Reeke, but IMO he and Jake went into this thinking it wouldn't be that bad or that it wouldn't be that long. But it is obvious from looking at Jake what a toll it has taken on him, and I don't doubt that it has taken a toll on Austin, but the only thing visible to us is his disappearance from public. And of course there is no way of knowing, but IMO having to see your boyfriend skip around Rome with his beard when you can't even be seen with him anywhere in public has to hurt, no matter how much you convinced yourself beforehand that it was okay to go along with this.
So did Jake stop going to the gym because of Ted, or, is it in WeHo and off-limits? Oh, that's right, he has to go work out in Brentwood.
I always thought Ted probably knew jake.
from Ted Dempsey’s as self-obsessed as the rest of us, no more, no less. Except, maybe for Jake Gyllenhaal. Mr. G used to strut and stretch..Dempsey outdid us all, particularly the half-butt workout Jakey, no question.
ReplyDeleteis ted saying Jake is the most obssessed about his body but he doesnt hardly workout, what he does is strut around the gym??
hmm, a different obssession/type of workout Jake was doing, methinks ted is saying. not that i'm saying it was sex in the sauna heh, more like a beta fish in front of the other males. maybe thats why jake has gained wieght [fmrs mkt, Cabo] -no more trips allowed to WeHo gyms, no running w/buddies, no reason to strut. or smile, eh.
Sounds like he's saying Jake liked to show off his "stuff" and strut around without really doing a strenuous workout. Like a peacock showing off his plumage to the other males.
ReplyDeleteMaybe doesn't need to strut around the gym anymore. Now he has his man at home.
ReplyDelete"Sorry - I realized that his (BEE)partner had died. Was in a longterm relationship."
ReplyDeleteYeah, but he (Bret Ellis) said it was a "loose" relationship, cos neither of them were "into the lifestyle" - his expression.
Jake plans restaurant venture
ReplyDeletefrom NYDN:
ReplyDelete"Jake Gyllenhaal wants to open a restaurant. One source says, "Cooking is his big hobby and his passion. It's nothing for him to whip up miso-marinated cod with braised microgreens." Note to self: don't go to Jake Gyllenhaal's restaurant."
