In a stunning move that increases speculation on the Prince of Persia rumors, it seems that Jake Gyllenhaal has offer to help his friend and part of the Three Amigos Summer of Cycling tour group, Matthew McConaughey with the hair right off his chest.
Smooth operator McConaughey, rumored to play iconic TV detective, Thomas Magnum in the upcoming movie version in of Magnum, PI, finds himself follicly challenged to step into private detective's thick chest carpet. Enter Gyllenhaal who's offered his for McCounaughey's use. Talk about an amigo!
Sources say the hair harvest will have Gyllenhaal manscaped and shorn several times of the course of the next 3 -6 months, to give the team of hair specialists the raw resources. No hairs will be permanently removed from the hairy hottie, but just clipped. The team will then create a special wiglette with individual hairs woven into a breathable mesh t
hat can be attached directly to any smooth surface (ie McBongo's smoother than a baby's bottom chest). CGI will also be used in post production for added fill ins and fullness. Inquiries whether if this is same hair team McConaughey has used for previous personal projects, were answered with a polite "no comment".
Sources say the team is confident the Gyllenhaal gift will be enough, but are keeping options open with Alec Baldwin as a backup. When Mr. Baldwin was contacted his response was "Did Tina Fey put you up to this? Or was it one of my idiot brothers?"
Those closest to Gyllenhaal have quote him as saying "It's not permanent, it will grow back it will grow back. ", trying to reassure he will not stay permasmooth. The wiglette is rumored to have a three picture deal, and that Gyllenhaal has the same with the hair team, leading to increased speculation he has a similar three picture deal with Bruckheimer for Prince of Persia.
Close friends to McConaughey have said he has said about the gift, "Just helping another brother out how cool is that. Just keeping it real, man, keeping it real."

Marc Malkin is reporting that Jake was sighted in Santa Monica yesterday. Reese was also seen in Century City shopping (what else?).
But those pix from FITSNews of Jake on the set are also supposed to be from yesterday. There are a couple new ones added.
A poster on IMDb reported they shot a scene yesterday with Keener and Reubens but no mention of Jake.
Whoops, that first link should be this.
Marc Malkin: CLUB KID: Jake Gyllenhaal, buying some jeans and sweaters at Club Monaco in Santa Monica.
Actors strike? Jake run out of jeans and sweaters?
"The team will then create a special wiglette with individual hairs woven into a breathable mesh that can be attached directly....."
LOL!
Malkin's sightings are collected over a period of time and then reported whenever.
They are mostly plugs for shops and restaurants.

Now, that makes sense.
Excellent post, Spesh.
I have to comment about the two LJ reports we got yesterday. I think both are credible- Jeese @ Starbucks and Reese @ the Walk. To me, both accounts read credibly and are not written by people who seem to have any kind of agenda for writing them. The only thing that I wonder about with the Jeese @ Starbucks sighting is the inclusion of the tidbit about Reese being the highest paid actress in HW and even stating her salary. That seems somewhat odd, but I still think that report is credible and reflects a new willingness on Jake's part to play along in this fauxmance.
Nah, the second LJ report is heartfelt; the first one is more promo for Reese, no starstruck barista is gonna take time out to inform everyone (yet again!) that Reese is the highest paid actress in HW. Plus, it just doesn't sound like Jake - you got this baby, and let her pick up the tab? More Reese promo if you ask me.
The salary stuff makes it look like PR bait.
Great post, Spesh!
You're right, nobody can play our owner without chest hair and a mustache - but why don't they take the simplest, most direct route, and just have Jake play him! ;)
Grrrrr! The Starbucks posting sounds a bit patronizing and macho-man, and not in a good way. that.
Later, Jake had to film a scene in a church so Reese waited for him in his trailer.
The shoot took ages and an assistant had to help Reese.
The insider added: "Around 11.30pm she (Reese) was getting pretty impatient.
"Finally, a makeup woman escorted Reese up the far left aisle of the church to watch Jake finish his scene. She looked really anxious for Jake to wrap up."
As soon as Jake finished he disappeared with Reese."
Did he disappear into the trailer? Otherwise this just doesn't beat Jake visiting Austin on the JFC set. :-)
What do you do all day in a trailer anyway?
Is it for real?!? Hilarious post! And we all need some laugh, so thank you :)
but I have to say McBongo is a bit a joke...
No reports of Reeke at the governor's dinner?
bongo better wear deordorant and underwear on my leather seats!
zeus and apollo are guarding the guesthouse
IHJ has the new pix from FITNews. They're not too exciting. I'm hating the hair.
Jake could use a new pair of jeans. He has worn that one pair to death. Santa Monica huh? I think he has some splainin to do to Austin, and some making up too, for all those surprise Reeke pics.
I have not been to IHJ yet to view new pics but I think some of his hair in the movie is a hairpiece. In the light you can see a difference in color and texture.
If shopping with Reese they'd pimped it. Maybe it was with Austin.
Quite right, Mr. Masters, and the lads are doing a fine job guarding the guest house. I wonder who will play me in this new film . . . might I suggest Daniel Day-Lewis?
who's gonna play me? i want a new chopper!
Austin would make a perfect me.
Hey Jake is a environmental kind of guy, the old jeans work just fine, why get rid of them.
He is looking a bit buffer now that the foot is better and we had all those early sightings of him hitting the gym around U SC. That white tee is not too shabby. : )
I think both LJ articles are credible, but I do think the barista's is a bit sarcastic, and I think he's thrown in all that talk about Reese's salary for that reason. Makes Jake look a bit like a gigolo.
The other thing that strikes me as odd in dropping the baby line in front of a guy like that. I think men are less likely to write up their encounters like this, or care about relationhips. I've read numbers somewhere on the number of men vs. women who keep blogs, and the difference is huge. And I don't think most straight men really know or care who Jake is. So why use the baby line here? Did Jake think this guy was gay (I did from his pictures, although he seems to have a girfriend) which would then make me say that if he did say that, then Jake is being more proactive as Wicked says.
^^That's what I thought too, Dest!
I wonder sometimes if both Jake and Austin do things not to the make appear straight to other guys, but more to make them appear off the market. Kind of a don't think about going there.
Look at Austin's big blue. He didn't wear it for a while, but when out in the clubs in NYC it was back on. Kind of putting it out there first before anything happens.
Just a thought.
Is it really true that McBongo is playing Magnum? This is all kinds of wrong, if so.
At Starbucks
He ordered TWO coffees. She's still there!
Strolling hand in hand
How do you know she is still there? By coffee? Lotta people order that? Maybe both for him?
There is lots of buzz about McBongo being Magnum, the script has been floating around for a while but it seems like he is the newest one attached to it. Hopefully he will get detached. I agree jinkies it's all kinds of wrong.
You always get people reporting sightings days AFTER photos are published. Remember MV?
He ordered two coffees and the other person wasn't with him? Baby would have been there. The other person must have been someone else. Baby couldn't manage a venti either.
Reading that I didn't get that the sighting were recent like this week. She said this is who came in: Jake, Catherine, etc. I doubt they all came in at once. They have been filming Nailed in Columbia for over 3 weeks, it could have been anythime.
FITS posted last week before the set pics emerged that JT and Reese were seen in Columbia at Satrbucks, etc.
We have Reeke sightings posted on an US Weekly article that is from NOVEMBER that we all know is directly from PR. Who do you think posted those sightings? Nice going. And how were those sightings ever found? Who would look at a more than 6 month old article? The person who wrote the sightings, of course.

It's called the "I'm taken" ring :)
Somewhere I saw comments saying Reese likely returned to California on Monday or Tuesday because Ryan was heading for London the beginning of this week. Plus, would "mother of the year" Reese really spend that much time away, especially with Mother's Day coming up.
Didn’t get a chance to comment on a few things yesterday so I’m just catching up.
iced tall non-fat no-whip mocha - that sums up the Reeke relationship for me
I’m not sure what to think about Jake or Reeke anymore. I’ll always love Jake for his portrayal of Jack Twist in BBM and I’ll always believe that J&A are/were together. I currently visit this blog because I love the creative posts, the community, and the chance to discuss Austin. I’m also curious to see where this will all end. Beyond that I just try to keep an open mind even when it’s not easy, but it’s getting more difficult everyday. I have to admire and thank Special and Wicked for their perseverance.
Whatever's happening in Jake's life (and blimey I do have more important things to think about) it doesn't look like he's buying jeans in Santa Monica.

(I would learn how to link a post but I'm just too stressed at the moment to take on any other information).
If Jake and Jess are arguing in those pix, they're probably not arguing with each other. They're both on their cell phones.
I think they're filming the scene described at WDW, and FITS is just trying to create a story from nothing.
Yummy Austin
Both Jake and Jessica are probably trying to rationalize to their same-sex lovers why the closet is all worth it.
WDW posted details of someone on set for the day and what they saw. Very good write up. I actually smiled after reading about Jake for the first time in a while. You know who was not there so he was himself for a change.
That writeup was about the Monday shoot and by all reports and pics, Reese was there. The person that wrote it daughter was an extra, the pics of Jake and Reese were taken during the break in filming.
Not likely that Reeke will marry
Thanks Annie for the Austin link.
I see that some posters are beginning to doubt that Reeke is fake. Why? because we get Reeke rammed down our throats every few days? Doesn't make Reeke real. Only says Jake & Reese are manipulative.
How do you think someone like Reese, short and plain, made it in a place like HW? She's cold, calculating, disciplined and persistent. And that is how Reeke will be run. I will never have doubts that Reeke is fake. What pisses me off is that I believed in the Jake of BBM times. I don't think he existed. I think Jake has manipulated his image right from the start from KD times. The only glimpse of the truth I think we got was Lakers 1. But that was shelved real quick when BBM lost out at the Oscars. Jake wants success, that's what I bet his parents have drilled into him from his young days. And gay does not = success in HW.
Oh and one more thing....
I believe Jake is gay not bi. I believe he has been gay all along that that KD was a beard. Reese is his present beard. Reese manages her image like....ilke General Witherspoon. She will not tolerate any scandal lest her squeaky clean image suffers. After her marriage broke up she had to get herself attached quick. What better than a gay man in a steady long term relationship??
OK, that's it! :))
Report from a Nailed extra
Has a new pic of Jake
