Rattler - saw that his show is over at the ICA. Haven't gotten a chance to even check out the new facility since it move over the Seaport and its been open almost 2 yr. (Bad Special) Will have to go check the show and the new ICA out to add a little culture to the free time on my hands.

Fairey is cool cross between Banksy and Warhol. Don't miss it! And your post today on black hats reminded me of Chaplin in the mirror maze (between 0:20 and 1:30). Too many black hats!
Larimar (also lorimar) is a rare blue variety of pectolite found only in the Dominican Republic, in the Caribbean. Its coloration varies from white, light-blue, green-blue to deep blue. The deep blue variant is known as volcanic blue
"The Puntacana Resort & Club on Tortuga Bay (in the Dominican Republic) offer villas decorated tastefully by Oscar de la Renta, the Dominican born designer. A one-bedroom villa will set you back about $550 a night, which is still a fraction of what it would cost in Fiji or many Caribbean sun spots like the Cayman Islands. Besides, you may have a priceless encounter with fellow guests like Jake Gyllenhaal or Penelope Cruz."
Thanks Special & Northeast; yes, there's alot to be thankful for. There really, really is. And it is a beautiful day.
And hey, tonight is the olllll' company holiday dinner. We have to be backwards and always have ours after the holiday. It's always been in January, tho, never in February, for gosh sakes. Already picked my meal, so I know it's going to be good. Had the same thing last year - grilled salmon. And when the Marriott cooks, it's always good. This is the second year that it's been the entire company, not just the salaried people. I'm glad. It's alot more fun this way - I have alot of friends out on the floor/whse and there's never much chance to visit at length so this always provides a good opportunity.
And there's always good buzz the following Monday after. lol.
Sorry to hear you're still on the ropes Special. Having just seen Th Wrestler a couple of days ago I have some real vivid images of your battle.
I agree with what Joker said in the previous thread about TT and word getting out there about Jake.
Interesting what this Ian is doing. And Justin? Well that is a new one in terms of any real talk, although people have wondered about him because of Cameron Diaz, who a lot of people thinks beards on a regular basis, and of course Jessica Biel, although people thought she was the one using Justin to beard.
So it looks like someone been walking off the set with some accessories at the end of filming. :)
Hey Wicked, have you seen this article about Canada trying to butch up the image of figure skating? It's not entirely clear to me what they're trying to do, but it sounds like they're trying to de-gay skating, as opposed to changing people's perception of what is masculine.
Cool story about people turning out to protest against Phelps' protest at a high school in Kansas. The story doesn't say why his homophobic group was targeting this school, although having a gay homecoming king may've been part of it.
One thing I've been wondering about the passage of Prop. 8 is if it didn't make it a cool and hip thing to rally for gay rights and/or protest homophobia.
PG, so sorry to hear about your Dad. Try to keep your spirits up and remember there's always hope. I truly believe in Miracles and in the power of prayer. Stay strong and Take care.
Hi Orchid! Hi Clarity! Thank you for your really nice words. Gosh, I'm sorry I must've sounded really pitiful yesterday. I must've been a little down. Don't want to bring it to the table much; just that I like to share as you all are like extended family to me. It's all part of life, right? We'll be okay and what's nice is to escape for awhile on places like here.
Let's veer off to something fun. Like Jake's hat. Does he wear it because of Austin's OTH 40's episode? Or because of Jamie Foxx's music video? Or did the 40's episode come before the filming of that video? Either way, it's extraordinary for a guy to be wearing a hat like that. Of course, gotta agree with m as well, that I think the hats also unconciously reflect his hiding behind people (Reese) and events. But besides that, at least it's interesting to note the type of hat. After all, it could just be a plain old ballcap, which is what guys normally wear if they wear one.
RIP James Whitmore. His son James Whitmore Jr is a big time TV director, Steve Whitmore is a police officer and the spokesperson for the LAPD, and grandson Matty was the hot guy on the last Survivor (the one who couldn't make fire!). Big Jim we'll miss ya.
Praireie Girl its common to see people wearing hats especislly in LA but mostly ball caps. If Jake wants to hide himself wearing a fedora/bowler whatever it is its not the way to go. He wants to stand out if hes wearing 1 of those.
One thing I've been wondering about the passage of Prop. 8 is if it didn't make it a cool and hip thing to rally for gay rights and/or protest homophobia.
Just wanted to finish my thought from earlier, when I had to run off:
While it would be wonderful if the motivating force behind the protests was sincere acceptance, tolerance and desire for gay rights, sometimes change is helped along by other social forces.
This reminds me of racism, when it became socially unacceptable to use certain negative epithets, so whether a potential offender had racist thoughts and opinions or not, the social pressure was a deterrent to stating them aloud when it became "uncool" to make these kinds of remarks in public, and social change came along with that, sometimes after.
IUC Exclusive: Well Known Hollywood Mogul claims he was intimate with “Toothy” dating back to 2004
Even though IUC outed Jake Gyllenhaal yesterday, I’m reserving judgment on this new development until I see more proof. IUC spoke to a prominent West Hollywood man today who claims he was “intimate” with “Toothy” going far as back as 2004. The man, in his mid forties, told IUC he has evidence and is planning to reveal bits soon. This is the fifth time in the last three weeks IUC has been in contact with the man, who used to live in a Beverly Hills mansion before moving to West Hollywood. DEVELOPING
Thanks, hmm said! Regardless of where this is going, if anywhere, it is still doggone heartjolting. Criminetley's, when I get back, I'm going to have to see how long this guy has had this blog. Is it new? Did he just start it? Has it been going for awhile?
Okay, guys, I have to get ready to go to my dinner; meeting my coworker at the old Home Depot so we can go together. Should be a good time. Still don't like functions like this, tho. Everybody all dressed up and not looking like themselves. All I ever want to do is get through it and then get home.
I hope to come back & see some friendly faces! I know we've all been enjoying the great weather today.
chris & m, thanks so much for your thoughts. Big hug to each of you. Love you both.
And now off to go splash some water on the face, lol. See you all later.
Hello everybody! Yes I am alive and have not forgetten you! My old computer tore up several weeks ago and it has taken this long to get a new one. My prayers are with you also PG! Can you all feel me in on what's been happening since I've been gone? Take care of yourselves and I will catch you later on!
Rattler you and me we have our differences but man you have the best you tube links. Thanks for the Chaplin Too many black hats! Hard to believe it was 1928 the man was a genius.
How funny the IHJ pics say they're from X17 but even X17 didn't bother putting them online on their site. Thats how much people care about seeing Reeke. Big fat zero. The only place who cares is IHJ and thats because it chronicles of Jake's now-pathetic life.
Wow I'm getting bad eeky vibes from the tiny snappish one and the other one the guy, he's really gay and his vibes are halfway nice but his aura is really really weak and he's fading away fast. The shopping bag has more energy like theres something stolen in it! OMG! Wow these two give me the total creepy eebee geebies chilly willies and not in a good way. Ughhh.
Hi PG, I'm so sorry to hear about your Dad. I hope he gets better soon and spends many, many more happy years with his family and loved ones.
About the Reeke pics, haven't seen them yet but whatever.
About IUC, I hope what he has to say is something worthwhile. It would be a pity if Jake is dragged out of the closet kicking and screaming when he could have come out with dignity.
Reeking galore. 2 sets from Feb 7. 2 different outfits, 2 cities Brentwood and Venice. Btw the ground is dry, it was raining storming in Venice Friday night and Saturday am. 2nd set makes it look like Jake istrying to kiss Reese (blech) and she is a total witch bitch. Look at her belly. You know the Babblers are gonna be knitting booties. She's just fat. And her clothes, omg. AWFUL.
What's most interesting about the newest pictures - that Jake is engaged and more himself talking to the Matt and the other guy than he has ever been with Reese in pictures.
Don't think it's a kiss more like whispering something but she does not look happy.
Is it me or are the pics at Venice just hilarious? OMG Reese's face in pic 1-4! One of the guys in the pic is Matthew Frost/Katz. Hahahahaha Austin's friend. LOL!
2 sets of pics. Didn't someone say that after IUC there would be a Reekathon?!
I agree, Orchid. Much as I can't stand the whole flaunting of Reeke, I would not want to see outing forced on him. Or anyone. I would like to see Jake do it because he wants to.
I tell you what, tho. He walks a fine line sometimes as far as playing it down. I wonder if this pressure would be going on if him & Reese weren't going so over the top sometimes. The more you rub something in people's faces, someone's liable to get irritated enough to take a swipe at you.
The shopping pictures today are pretty lame. We have the head ducking and face dodging on both of them. Yet on Friday, Reese is walking with Deacon, just a beaming away at the cameras. I don't get it.
Good time at the ol' holiday party. Salmon was excellent. And door prizes handed out to trivia questions about our plant's performance last year, our products, etc. It's a test to see if we're paying attention at our monthly meetings, safety meetings, whatnot. And it's funny how people have a hard time recognizing co-workers that they see frequently at work, but because they're out of uniform, no hairnet, beardnet, safety glasses, helmut, earplugs, whatever, you don't recognize them.
Funny how now after the Ian site Jared has the Reeke pics and askes if Reese has a baby bump. Jake was prtobably asking Reese to stick out her belly more. Lol
Thank you, flf; big hug to you. Your words & thoughts mean alot to me.
Boy, just looked at the newest set. Reese looks bored out of her mind. She acts like she either disagrees with whatever Jake is whispering in her ear or else maybe he had garlic on his breath or something, lol. Who's the guy with the light grey sweater?
I can just see a couple of those pictures being passed around, the ones that make it look like she's expecting. Reese is really starting to look older now. I can see why People published that one picture of Jake by himself this past week because in that black dress she had on, she really needs to stop wearing short dresses & things. She doesn't have the knees & legs anymore of a 20 year old. Funny how he's snapped back into looking like his old self as far as the hair and his grooming. Maybe that homeless man fic in Star magazine finally drove that point home in how he was looking, lol.
So now he's looking more like 28 again and she's starting to look more towards the side of 40 than 30. Well, the Reekeing doesn't surprise after this Ian blog story.
And you know, Chris, if you look at her in those pictures on Friday with Deacon, her stomach doesn't look like that at all. Maybe they just had a big meal, lol.
Have you ever seen two people shop as stinkin' much as they do? I can't get over this. Twice in one day with the bag carrying? What all do they keep buying?
Wonder what the kids are doing during all this time Reese spends with Jake shopping and sucking down coffee. Seems odd for such a superdedo mom to leave them to the nanny so often, doesn't it?
Or are they with dad? You know, the one that's such an awful, awful person to hurt Reese like that. (I know, read it in the tabloids, so it MUST be true!) Why would she want her reason for living to be around such a terrible influence? And with THAT woman, too! How could she stand that tainting her specialest prodgeny like that!
Special theres more pics and theres 2 grey haired men. The one in the plaid shirt and tan cap almost looks like (and I'm prob wrong) the Frasier "Bulldog" actor Dan Butler we were talking about a couple weeks ago. Is it him?
Agree with everything you said Prairie Girl, except your agreement with Orchid.
While I agree with Orchid that it would be preferable for Jake to come out in his own way and time, personally I think he has really stepped over a line with the reeking, which has really escalated since he's been back from London. I think he deserves to be called out on what he has been doing, particularly since I think it is wrong wrong wrong for Jake and Austin to hide their own child. If only for the sake of Baby Tile's mental well-being, I think Jake and Austin should be outed.
Wow, Jake looks like he stepped right out of 2004, very carefree and nice to see him with old friends. Reese seems like she's wondering why she bothered showing up to hang out with these guys (not to mention looking like she forgot to put on a skirt).
Spesh it was raining all night hard and the US weather service has flood warnings and severe weather alerts running on TV and radio. Anyone can see those pics were not taken today or yesterday.
Well of course he is in LA on the weekend, where else could he be?
;-)
At the risk of opening another can of worms but do you Americans get the feeling that little of what you hear or see on your Main Stream Media is just PR generated fluff? Not just celebrities but everything from the financial system, politics and the news. I am not sure of the number but apparently over 70% of news actually starts life as a press release...
PS Canadian here and it isn't like we have it much better but US news seems so light weight...
I agree Time Warp. If it weren't for Reese I would think it was early 2006. And Reese looks very much like an afterthought. The difference in the dynamics in these pictures and other reekings is very striking.
Even if this HW mogul reveals he and Jake were together back in 2004, it doesn't matter.
The new fangirl thing is to believe that actors with gay rumours were experimenting and eventually the love of a good woman brings them back on the straight and narrow.
To derail Reeke, they need picture proof of Jake with men during the time he's 'been' with Reese.
PR finally figured out the recipe for pictures of Jake relaxed and happy: surround him with old (male) friends. He has never, not even once, looked as serene and sincere as he does talking to Matt and the other guy.
As much as I want the bearding to end outing is wrong and coming out should be a personal choice. It seems that Ian is promoting his own project about Hollywood secrets by outing notorious closeted stars. He should be going after the bigger fish (studio exs, publisists, agents).
I also would hate to see Jake outed. What does IUC stand for? Be sure and keep me informed on what happens there! Wicked and Special K, how are the rest of you? Didn't Reese wear a similar hat a couple of weeks ago in a photo? I am not trying to be a killjoy. Austin looks handsome as usual. I hope both have continued success and happiness as does everyone.
Instead of making everyone wait till noon, I decided to post this now cause I couldn’t hold it in any longer. During the past week, I’ve used some of my longtime contacts in the publishing business to find out if the rumors I was hearing from a publishing business friend about a supposed upcoming book about Toothy Tile were true. In the end, I got more than I bargained for.
In an exclusive interview with two high up editors at NYC’s major publishing houses, IUC has learned at least two books are in the works about the epic saga of Toothy Tile, including one by the star himself - Jake Gyllenhaal. According to the first editor, Gyllenhaal is currently at work on a tell all autobiography, in which he’ll use as an opportunity to reveal to the world he is indeed Toothy Tile. “It seems he wants to write his life story and let the world know he’s dabbled in same sex relationships,” the editor said. “He’ll use the book to clear up all the longstanding rumors about his sexuality. The book will definitely go to auction and end up with a seven figure advance. There’s huge interest in this.”
Editor says Jake's story would be perfect for Oprah
The editor said he became privy to this information when it was leaked to him from a representative in Gyllenhaal’s camp. “It was a heads up call, which happens all the time in our industry,” the editor said. “Celebs who want to write books often have their reps and literary agents phone publishers to gauge their interest before going out with a proposal. In this particular case, I have no doubt the book can be a no.1 bestseller. First thought I have here is it’s perfect for Oprah. Just imagine Jake on Oprah’s couch in tears telling her he would have come out sooner if he could of but he was worried about his friends, family and career. It would be the biggest thing to hit the book businees in years.”
Meanwhile, IUC has learned Gyllenhaal is not the only person at work revealing the truth about Toothy Tile. An editor at Random House confirmed to IUC last week he received a proposal recently from a L.A. based author about Toothy. The editor confirmed the writer was represented by a major New York literary agent. He refused to reveal the name of the writer because of confidentiality purposes. ”It’s a solid proposal, a very compelling story, something that could make waves,” the editor said. The editor refused to say whether or not he acquired the rights to the book. “I’m not allowed to reveal things like that,” he said. “ DEVELOPING…
That IUC article doesn't say anything except 2 books are being written about TT. One is being written by Jake? Shit, no one's gonna understand it! (if the book is anything like his interviews) Is this some kind of publicity stunt by IUC? According to Wikipedia, the guy lacks credibility.
PS. Although I think it would be so much better if Jake came out on his own accord, keeping his dignity intact, I'm more than happy for anyone to out him. Man, that will be the day!
The editor stressed he wanted to remain cautious. “Celebs are known more than anyone to pitch books with sensational points but often chicken out when it’s time to go to print,” the editor said. “Gyllenhaal’s people could use his alleged gay past as a way to get more money. But when the manuscript is handed in it could be a totally different story. They could tone it down, saying something like ‘it only happened once when he was drunk at a party’ or something of that nature. That would piss off the publisher but it would be too late to stop the book cause all the orders by bookstores would have been placed.”
A way to kill off the rest of Jake's gay fanbase, through utter disgust. Float the rumors that Jake is writing a book to tell of his sad gay wandering past, mention the possibility of a hook-up or two, but never Austin or BT, then gush about Reese, how she's the love of his life, how, through the miraculous healing powers of her saintly pussy, cured Jake of his evil gay ways, and now he's ready to spend the rest of his life in Straightland making straight babies and forever signing straight praises to his lady love saviour.
Which, of course, the Babbler crowd will coo over, 'cause Jake's been 'honest' and 'open' about his terrible past, and now is firmly in the heteronormative world to stay. But, the gay fans, his staunchest supporters and most vocal critics will throw up, their hands and their lunch, and walk away, never to return. POP will build a brand new fanbase, and Toothy, BBM and Jake's unfortunate rumors of gaydom will fade to black.
And the best part? The book never needs go to print!
Am I the only one who finds all that blogging about Lincoln Booth, just how clever they all are to have written it, discovered it, read it, etc. a tad bit pretentious?
It's a movie, for crying out loud. Just make the damn thing and let the audience decide whether it, and Lincoln, are interesting.
Don't know about that. Always thought Prince Dastan was supposed to look like a lean, mean, fighting machine. Jake looks like Jesus of Nazareth on a steroid binge.
Am I the only one who finds all that blogging about Lincoln Booth, just how clever they all are to have written it, discovered it, read it, etc. a tad bit pretentious?
It's not working for me either, and I really wanted it to.
They need something big to clean up the Toothy story. Jake is not content to live for the next twenty years with this floating out there suing only the blatant stories. This is how Tom Cruise has dealt with things for years but it takes a lot of energy and vigilant attention to what is being said. A book with a bi-past would clear things up nicely. Well played Team Jake. Jake can be the next Ted Haggart calling himself heterosexual with complications.
The picture dates are a lie. As usual. They must be from midweek. This happens all the time. X17 gets the shots then spends four or five days shopping them. Then they put them online and say guess who we found today!
The kids are with Ryan 50% of the time. Reese has no way to avoid that and as time goes on she is happy to let him take them. No different from when they were together.
My guess is Jake's people found out that Ted is writing a book. There has to be a reason why he keeps this TT topic updated and interesting. Not a moral or emotional reason either something involving money, the only real motivator in LA. It seems to me that Team Jake let Ted know that they were floating their own manuscript that would contradict Ted's and be more marketable. Ted knows how to play the game very well so he leaked this item to his friend. It will be everywhere in a few days.
I wonder if Jake is a Scientologist now too. "dabbled" in homosexuality? What a laugh. Jake is more pathetic than ever. He's losing fans even faster now.
TR, I get what you are saying and agree. But, I find it hard to believe that Reese, who is such an uptight bitch and so concerned with her public image, would be OK with a book where Jake said he slept with guys in the past. I mean how ridiculous would it sound if Jake writes a book and says he slept with a few guys, but now is so in love with Reese that he will never be attracted to any man again. If you like sleeping with guys how do you suddenly don't like it anymore? It would still make Reese look stupid because she's been parading all over LA and the world with some one isn't 100% straight. Her husband left her for another woman and she immediately took up with another man who isn't 100%. I would think that would make Reese pissed off. Maybe she is really planning to dump Jake and say he hid this from her and she's had it.
Life imitating art? Just another shout out?
What are those hats called? Bowlers? Texas boy looks good in a hat but Cali boy, he looks like a fish out of water.

Everybody all dressed up and not looking like themselves. All I ever want to do is get through it and then get home.
I hope to come back & see some friendly faces! I know we've all been enjoying the great weather today.
chris & m, thanks so much for your thoughts. Big hug to each of you. Love you both.
And now off to go splash some water on the face, lol. See you all later.
Hello everybody! Yes I am alive and have not forgetten you! My old
ReplyDeletecomputer tore up several weeks ago
and it has taken this long to get a
new one. My prayers are with you
also PG! Can you all feel me in on
what's been happening since I've been gone? Take care of yourselves
and I will catch you later on!
Rattler you and me we have our differences but man you have the best you tube links. Thanks for the Chaplin Too many black hats! Hard to believe it was 1928 the man was a genius.
ReplyDeletecoffee and shopping what else! pics of reeke in brentwood today at ihj. they must be hard up for pr, going shopping on a saturday.
ReplyDeleteHow funny the IHJ pics say they're from X17 but even X17 didn't bother putting them online on their site. Thats how much people care about seeing Reeke. Big fat zero. The only place who cares is IHJ and thats because it chronicles of Jake's now-pathetic life.
ReplyDeleteCould these pictures BE any more pointless?
ReplyDelete**BREAKING UPDATE**
ReplyDeleteIUC will release a major breaking story tomorrow at noon (est) about a new twist of events in this lingering saga. It’s major!
IUC
Oh look two reekeafohmance ice age specimens, a badactressbonychin and a Jakepooftersaurass!
ReplyDeleteRattler you and me we have our differences...
ReplyDeleteSo what? I do enjoy the way you put your point across! In RL, we could be buddies.
Wow I'm getting bad eeky vibes from the tiny snappish one and the other one the guy, he's really gay and his vibes are halfway nice but his aura is really really weak and he's fading away fast. The shopping bag has more energy like theres something stolen in it! OMG! Wow these two give me the total creepy eebee geebies chilly willies and not in a good way. Ughhh.
ReplyDeleteAs much as I wish things were different, I still think it should be Jake who chooses if and when to come out.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link, Destiny. I found the video very touching.
ReplyDeleteHi PG, I'm so sorry to hear about your Dad. I hope he gets better soon and spends many, many more happy years with his family and loved ones.
ReplyDeleteAbout the Reeke pics, haven't seen them yet but whatever.
About IUC, I hope what he has to say is something worthwhile. It would be a pity if Jake is dragged out of the closet kicking and screaming when he could have come out with dignity.
Reeking galore. 2 sets from Feb 7. 2 different outfits, 2 cities Brentwood and Venice. Btw the ground is dry, it was raining storming in Venice Friday night and Saturday am. 2nd set makes it look like Jake istrying to kiss Reese (blech) and she is a total witch bitch. Look at her belly. You know the Babblers are gonna be knitting booties. She's just fat. And her clothes, omg. AWFUL.
ReplyDeleteOne of guys with him is Matt Frost.
ReplyDeleteWhat's most interesting about the newest pictures - that Jake is engaged and more himself talking to the Matt and the other guy than he has ever been with Reese in pictures.
ReplyDeleteDon't think it's a kiss more like whispering something but she does not look happy.
Is it me or are the pics at Venice just hilarious? OMG Reese's face in pic 1-4! One of the guys in the pic is Matthew Frost/Katz. Hahahahaha Austin's friend. LOL!
ReplyDelete2 sets of pics. Didn't someone say that after IUC there would be a Reekathon?!
I agree, Orchid. Much as I can't stand the whole flaunting of Reeke, I would not want to see outing forced on him. Or anyone. I would like to see Jake do it because he wants to.
ReplyDeleteI tell you what, tho. He walks a fine line sometimes as far as playing it down. I wonder if this pressure would be going on if him & Reese weren't going so over the top sometimes. The more you rub something in people's faces, someone's liable to get irritated enough to take a swipe at you.
The shopping pictures today are pretty lame. We have the head ducking and face dodging on both of them. Yet on Friday, Reese is walking with Deacon, just a beaming away at the cameras. I don't get it.
Good time at the ol' holiday party. Salmon was excellent. And door prizes handed out to trivia questions about our plant's performance last year, our products, etc. It's a test to see if we're paying attention at our monthly meetings, safety meetings, whatnot. And it's funny how people have a hard time recognizing co-workers that they see frequently at work, but because they're out of uniform, no hairnet, beardnet, safety glasses, helmut, earplugs, whatever, you don't recognize them.
Funny how now after the Ian site Jared has the Reeke pics and askes if Reese has a baby bump. Jake was prtobably asking Reese to stick out her belly more. Lol
ReplyDeleteThank you, flf; big hug to you. Your words & thoughts mean alot to me.
ReplyDeleteBoy, just looked at the newest set. Reese looks bored out of her mind. She acts like she either disagrees with whatever Jake is whispering in her ear or else maybe he had garlic on his breath or something, lol. Who's the guy with the light grey sweater?
I can just see a couple of those pictures being passed around, the ones that make it look like she's expecting. Reese is really starting to look older now. I can see why People published that one picture of Jake by himself this past week because in that black dress she had on, she really needs to stop wearing short dresses & things. She doesn't have the knees & legs anymore of a 20 year old.
Funny how he's snapped back into looking like his old self as far as the hair and his grooming.
Maybe that homeless man fic in Star magazine finally drove that point home in how he was looking, lol.
So now he's looking more like 28 again and she's starting to look more towards the side of 40 than 30. Well, the Reekeing doesn't surprise after this Ian blog story.
And you know, Chris, if you look at her in those pictures on Friday with Deacon, her stomach doesn't look like that at all. Maybe they just had a big meal, lol.
Have you ever seen two people shop as stinkin' much as they do? I can't get over this. Twice in one day with the bag carrying? What all do they keep buying?
...Jake is engaged and more himself talking to the Matt and the other guy than he has ever been with Reese in pictures.
ReplyDeleteA new film role? An exciting script? Good responses to POP poster? I wonder.
"What all do they keep buying?"
ReplyDeleteTime!
...Jake is engaged and more himself talking to the Matt and the other guy than he has ever been with Reese in pictures.
ReplyDeleteA new film role? An exciting script? Good responses to POP poster? I wonder.
Maybe it was he got to talk to a boy!
The guy with the grey hair looks really familiar but I can't place him.
ReplyDeleteWonder what the kids are doing during all this time Reese spends with Jake shopping and sucking down coffee. Seems odd for such a superdedo mom to leave them to the nanny so often, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteOr are they with dad? You know, the one that's such an awful, awful person to hurt Reese like that. (I know, read it in the tabloids, so it MUST be true!) Why would she want her reason for living to be around such a terrible influence? And with THAT woman, too! How could she stand that tainting her specialest prodgeny like that!
Special theres more pics and theres 2 grey haired men. The one in the plaid shirt and tan cap almost looks like (and I'm prob wrong) the Frasier "Bulldog" actor Dan Butler we were talking about a couple weeks ago. Is it him?
ReplyDeleteAgree with everything you said Prairie Girl, except your agreement with Orchid.
ReplyDeleteWhile I agree with Orchid that it would be preferable for Jake to come out in his own way and time, personally I think he has really stepped over a line with the reeking, which has really escalated since he's been back from London. I think he deserves to be called out on what he has been doing, particularly since I think it is wrong wrong wrong for Jake and Austin to hide their own child. If only for the sake of Baby Tile's mental well-being, I think Jake and Austin should be outed.
anyone in chat? I need to LOL about how fast Venice drys up after the worst rainstorm in 3 years LOL
ReplyDeleteNo its not Dan Butler. The guy looks like a producer or someone like that - that I've seen before somewhere.
ReplyDeleteInteresting about the ground and rain, good pick up there Chris.
Wow, Jake looks like he stepped right out of 2004, very carefree and nice to see him with old friends. Reese seems like she's wondering why she bothered showing up to hang out with these guys (not to mention looking like she forgot to put on a skirt).
ReplyDeletemaybe its his 2 gay uncles/godfathers.
ReplyDeleteWell, Ted did say Toothy wanted someone to out him. Perhaps Jake is feeeling carefree now that the hard work has been taken off his shoulders.
ReplyDeleteSpesh it was raining all night hard and the US weather service has flood warnings and severe weather alerts running on TV and radio. Anyone can see those pics were not taken today or yesterday.
ReplyDeleteWell of course he is in LA on the weekend, where else could he be?
ReplyDelete;-)
At the risk of opening another can of worms but do you Americans get the feeling that little of what you hear or see on your Main Stream Media is just PR generated fluff? Not just celebrities but everything from the financial system, politics and the news. I am not sure of the number but apparently over 70% of news actually starts life as a press release...
PS Canadian here and it isn't like we have it much better but US news seems so light weight...
Yeah I knew you guys were getting heavy rains and how much you need it.
ReplyDeleteThat should have been most not little!
ReplyDeleteLet's not forget -
ReplyDeleteWhen Jake's outed, so comes Austin.
And Reese too!
ReplyDeleteOoo! I want a picture of that!
ReplyDeleteI agree Time Warp. If it weren't for Reese I would think it was early 2006. And Reese looks very much like an afterthought. The difference in the dynamics in these pictures and other reekings is very striking.
ReplyDeleteEven if this HW mogul reveals he and Jake were together back in 2004, it doesn't matter.
ReplyDeleteThe new fangirl thing is to believe that actors with gay rumours were experimenting and eventually the love of a good woman brings them back on the straight and narrow.
To derail Reeke, they need picture proof of Jake with men during the time he's 'been' with Reese.
Forgot to add that it is nice to see PR allowing Jake to have friends again - but why doesn't Reese have any?
ReplyDeletePR finally figured out the recipe for pictures of Jake relaxed and happy: surround him with old (male) friends. He has never, not even once, looked as serene and sincere as he does talking to Matt and the other guy.
ReplyDeleteAs much as I want the bearding to end outing is wrong and coming out should be a personal choice. It seems that Ian is promoting his own project about Hollywood secrets by outing notorious closeted stars. He should be going after the bigger fish (studio exs, publisists, agents).
Prairie Girl, I want you to know that my prayers are with you and your family.
ReplyDeleteI also would hate to see Jake outed. What does IUC stand for? Be
ReplyDeletesure and keep me informed on what
happens there! Wicked and Special K, how are the rest of you?
Didn't Reese wear a similar hat
a couple of weeks ago in a photo? I am not trying to be a killjoy.
Austin looks handsome as usual.
I hope both have continued success
and happiness as does everyone.
Should have been "He has never, not even once, looked as serene and sincere with Reese as he does..."
ReplyDeleteInstead of making everyone wait till noon, I decided to post this now cause I couldn’t hold it in any longer. During the past week, I’ve used some of my longtime contacts in the publishing business to find out if the rumors I was hearing from a publishing business friend about a supposed upcoming book about Toothy Tile were true. In the end, I got more than I bargained for.
ReplyDeleteIn an exclusive interview with two high up editors at NYC’s major publishing houses, IUC has learned at least two books are in the works about the epic saga of Toothy Tile, including one by the star himself - Jake Gyllenhaal. According to the first editor, Gyllenhaal is currently at work on a tell all autobiography, in which he’ll use as an opportunity to reveal to the world he is indeed Toothy Tile. “It seems he wants to write his life story and let the world know he’s dabbled in same sex relationships,” the editor said. “He’ll use the book to clear up all the longstanding rumors about his sexuality. The book will definitely go to auction and end up with a seven figure advance. There’s huge interest in this.”
Editor says Jake's story would be perfect for Oprah
The editor said he became privy to this information when it was leaked to him from a representative in Gyllenhaal’s camp. “It was a heads up call, which happens all the time in our industry,” the editor said. “Celebs who want to write books often have their reps and literary agents phone publishers to gauge their interest before going out with a proposal. In this particular case, I have no doubt the book can be a no.1 bestseller. First thought I have here is it’s perfect for Oprah. Just imagine Jake on Oprah’s couch in tears telling her he would have come out sooner if he could of but he was worried about his friends, family and career. It would be the biggest thing to hit the book businees in years.”
Meanwhile, IUC has learned Gyllenhaal is not the only person at work revealing the truth about Toothy Tile. An editor at Random House confirmed to IUC last week he received a proposal recently from a L.A. based author about Toothy. The editor confirmed the writer was represented by a major New York literary agent. He refused to reveal the name of the writer because of confidentiality purposes. ”It’s a solid proposal, a very compelling story, something that could make waves,” the editor said. The editor refused to say whether or not he acquired the rights to the book. “I’m not allowed to reveal things like that,” he said. “ DEVELOPING…

ReplyDeleteIs it a Joke!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThat clown is worst than JJ!
ReplyDeleteWell, well, well.
ReplyDeleteNow, isn't that interesting?
What's that I hear, the sound of Babblerbobbleheads exploding?
Already had three - or is it just one talking to themselves - here this morning.
Hee! Whether you believe IUC or not, today is going to be fantastic!
Toothy Tile lives!
That IUC article doesn't say anything except 2 books are being written about TT.
ReplyDeleteOne is being written by Jake? Shit, no one's gonna understand it! (if the book is anything like his interviews)
Is this some kind of publicity stunt by IUC? According to Wikipedia, the guy lacks credibility.
PS. Although I think it would be so much better if Jake came out on his own accord, keeping his dignity intact, I'm more than happy for anyone to out him. Man, that will be the day!
This was added by jj, i mean ian:
ReplyDeleteThe editor stressed he wanted to remain cautious. “Celebs are known more than anyone to pitch books with sensational points but often chicken out when it’s time to go to print,” the editor said. “Gyllenhaal’s people could use his alleged gay past as a way to get more money. But when the manuscript is handed in it could be a totally different story. They could tone it down, saying something like ‘it only happened once when he was drunk at a party’ or something of that nature. That would piss off the publisher but it would be too late to stop the book cause all the orders by bookstores would have been placed.”
This gets worse by the minute.
ReplyDelete“It seems he wants to write his life story and let the world know he’s dabbled in same sex relationships,” the editor said. Dabbled?!?
"alleged gay past" wow!
The guy is gay as a goose!
"That clown is worst than JJ!"
ReplyDeleteWell I think I love jj now lol
Mona Mills through the eyes of Lincoln Booth.
ReplyDeleteWell played, Evelyn, well played!
ReplyDeleteA way to kill off the rest of Jake's gay fanbase, through utter disgust. Float the rumors that Jake is writing a book to tell of his sad gay wandering past, mention the possibility of a hook-up or two, but never Austin or BT, then gush about Reese, how she's the love of his life, how, through the miraculous healing powers of her saintly pussy, cured Jake of his evil gay ways, and now he's ready to spend the rest of his life in Straightland making straight babies and forever signing straight praises to his lady love saviour.
Which, of course, the Babbler crowd will coo over, 'cause Jake's been 'honest' and 'open' about his terrible past, and now is firmly in the heteronormative world to stay. But, the gay fans, his staunchest supporters and most vocal critics will throw up, their hands and their lunch, and walk away, never to return. POP will build a brand new fanbase, and Toothy, BBM and Jake's unfortunate rumors of gaydom will fade to black.
And the best part? The book never needs go to print!
Indeed, well played!
Am I the only one who finds all that blogging about Lincoln Booth, just how clever they all are to have written it, discovered it, read it, etc. a tad bit pretentious?
ReplyDeleteIt's a movie, for crying out loud. Just make the damn thing and let the audience decide whether it, and Lincoln, are interesting.
Anyone else?
"POP will build a brand new fanbase,"
ReplyDeleteDon't know about that. Always thought Prince Dastan was supposed to look like a lean, mean, fighting machine. Jake looks like Jesus of Nazareth on a steroid binge.
Am I the only one who finds all that blogging about Lincoln Booth, just how clever they all are to have written it, discovered it, read it, etc. a tad bit pretentious?
ReplyDeleteIt's not working for me either, and I really wanted it to.
Ian gets more unbelievable by the minute.
They need something big to clean up the Toothy story. Jake is not content to live for the next twenty years with this floating out there suing only the blatant stories. This is how Tom Cruise has dealt with things for years but it takes a lot of energy and vigilant attention to what is being said. A book with a bi-past would clear things up nicely. Well played Team Jake. Jake can be the next Ted Haggart calling himself heterosexual with complications.
ReplyDeleteThe picture dates are a lie. As usual. They must be from midweek. This happens all the time. X17 gets the shots then spends four or five days shopping them. Then they put them online and say guess who we found today!
The kids are with Ryan 50% of the time. Reese has no way to avoid that and as time goes on she is happy to let him take them. No different from when they were together.
But, do they, and by they I mean Jake et al. - really believe this TT tell-all book rumor will scrub away the gay?
ReplyDelete'Cause it won't. Can't see Ted letting Jake and Austin get away with the lies.
It's just so insulting . . . :(
ReplyDeleteAnd "IUC has learned Gyllenhaal is not the only person at work revealing the truth about Toothy Tile"!
ReplyDeleteYeah, by the same guy that concluded that Tom Cruise is 100% straight?
ReplyDeleteMy guess is Jake's people found out that Ted is writing a book. There has to be a reason why he keeps this TT topic updated and interesting. Not a moral or emotional reason either something involving money, the only real motivator in LA. It seems to me that Team Jake let Ted know that they were floating their own manuscript that would contradict Ted's and be more marketable. Ted knows how to play the game very well so he leaked this item to his friend. It will be everywhere in a few days.
ReplyDeleteNow it's a race to the publisher.
"'Cause it won't. Can't see Ted letting Jake and Austin get away with the lies."
ReplyDeleteMaybe Ted should be honest for once and out Jake himself!!!!!!
Besides Do you really think Ian isn't able to make up story without PR behind him !!!
But, if Ted's book is already written. or nearly there, how can Reeke complete a manuscript in time to get there first?
ReplyDeleteOr, is there already one sitting there on Evelyn's desk, behind glass with the sign "Break in case of The Gay is winning emergency"?
Whose PR, funny?
ReplyDeleteI wonder if Jake is a Scientologist now too. "dabbled" in homosexuality? What a laugh. Jake is more pathetic than ever. He's losing fans even faster now.
ReplyDeleteTR, I get what you are saying and agree. But, I find it hard to believe that Reese, who is such an uptight bitch and so concerned with her public image, would be OK with a book where Jake said he slept with guys in the past. I mean how ridiculous would it sound if Jake writes a book and says he slept with a few guys, but now is so in love with Reese that he will never be attracted to any man again. If you like sleeping with guys how do you suddenly don't like it anymore? It would still make Reese look stupid because she's been parading all over LA and the world with some one isn't 100% straight. Her husband left her for another woman and she immediately took up with another man who isn't 100%. I would think that would make Reese pissed off. Maybe she is really planning to dump Jake and say he hid this from her and she's had it.
ReplyDeleteI wonder who will write this page-turner and what the title will be. :)
ReplyDelete
