But better late than never when it come to Austin Fridays.
It sounds like Austin's new character Lincoln is a photographer. Does that mean that Austin is going to grab a camera a start taking pictures to get the perspective of a photographer? Is he a photographer already?
Would he ask Matt for pointers? Would he use his own pictures to be Lincoln's?
What kind of pictures do you think he would take? Nature? Portraits? Arty Surrealism? Photojournalistic? Action? Urban Cityscapes? Laid back seaside? Or would he turn the tables and be a paparazzi for practice?
And what do you think he's favorite subject would be?
Somehow you can see him building a portfolio worthy of a photographer just as part of the process, and coming away with something completely uniquely him.
Would we be so lucky to see any of his work?
I really like that top picture.
ReplyDeletemy internet provider and I are going to have a little rumble this afternoon about my service problems.
I can hear that announcer now saying, "Let's get ready to RUUUUUMBLE!"
Beautiful picture Special. We'll be rooting for you this afternoon.
ReplyDeleteHey PG, where've you been. I miss your lunchtime posts.
ReplyDeletecan you imagine Austin as a pap? Tall, he'd always get the aeriel shot and long legged, he'd be right behind the subject like lightning. No one could get away!
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of Austin as a photographer. You know his pics would be erotic and controversial. I can just see those extra long arms in the air.
ReplyDeleteNot to harp on Cantara, but I think she and papa are both a bit delusional. He hasn't directed a movie in what, over 10 years. Mainly TV episodes now and then. Dont' get me wrong. I think he is a good director and what episodes of his I saw were indeed special, but I can't imagine A list stars or projects coming his way.
I love the picture at the top. It is awesome.
ReplyDeleteChris it is so cool that you know one of the dreaded paps. would be fun to hear some of the stuff he fills you in on.
Tom paps a she. Total lesbian, knew about Jodie Foster before Jodie Foster knew about Jodie Foster LOL. Hangs out with other female stars who I shouldnt najme, gets invited to their trailers. She told me long ago like in 2001: Jakes gay.
ReplyDeleteGet a load of that PR.
Wow!
ReplyDeletePrairie Girl,
ReplyDeletewhere are you?
Ian Halperin from "Ian Under Cover" posted this blind item two days ago:
ReplyDeleteIUC Exclusive : All of these Stars Are Gay, except for one - who?
Alex Trebek, Jake Gyllenhaal, Oprah, Robin Williams, Tom Cruise
In an update today Jake was eliminated. It means that according to this guy, Jake is gay.
From Ian Halperin's site:
ReplyDeleteIUC Exclusive: IUC Investigation Reveals Jake Definitely a Flaming Poofter - Relationship with Reese is Toast
In case you hadn’t noticed, I removed the photo of Jake Gyllenhall
today from my list, featuring a photo of one celeb who is not gay.
Does this mean that I’m outing Jake? Is the Pope German?
The worst kept secret in Hollywood is that for almost four years,
Gyllenhall has been anxious to break out of the celluloid closet. My
old friend Ted Casablanca has posted repeated notorious blind items
about this since 2005, discussing a mysterious celeb who he dubbed
“Toothy Tile,” documenting Gyllenhall’s baby steps out of the closet,
only to be shoved firmly back in at the insistence of his publicists
and management who advised Jake that it would be career suicide for
him to take the leap.
This has resulted in the increasingly sad spectacle of Jake hitting
the town with a series of beards in the fine old tradition of
Hollywood. Think James Dean and Nathalie Wood. Or, more accurately
Cary Grant and Randolph Scott, who used to publicly hold hands and
gaze longingly into each other’s eyes at the Brown Derby restaurant
in Hollywood, as Toothy Tile was said to have done surreptitiously at
a restaurant with his boyfriend in one of Ted’s earliest blind items.
Unfortunately, Ted’s lawyers at E have put a straitjacket on him,
preventing him from releasing the name of the subject of the world’s
most famous blind item (though Ted refused to confirm this to me when
I had him on IUC for a live chat a couple of weeks ago.)
For a complete archive of Casablanca’s four-year documentation of the
increasingly sad Toothy Tile’s revolving closet doors, check out
www.toothytile.com.

The 1st pic of Austin is great with the tight shape of the head down to the widening circular shoulders. He's a tornado.
ReplyDeleteOh wow! at 5.55. But tb's have known that for a long while.
ReplyDeletePG, please come out and play...
Hey, hey! Sorry, guys, I just got home & I had a bunch of emails and LJ messages, whatnot. It's been a couple of strange days. Sorry, Destiny! I've been at my folks' a couple times @ lunchtime (they live about 7 min. from where I work) and probably will be pretty frequently as my dad is coping with illness. He's getting around okay; in fact him & Mom rushed me out the door, for crying out loud, saying they had to go see their Tax Man. But don't know what the future holds - praying for the best.
ReplyDeleteHey Chris! LOL - did you lose your blogger password again?? I know you had your name registered, but I'm not seeing the blogger id by your name lately. Your name looks just a little slightly "plain" without it.
I don't have too much else to say, especially about Contraband. I don't want to go anywhere near all of that.
flf & smiley, how are you all? I, for one, am very glad it's the weekend. It is 65 degrees today & I was wearing shorts for my walk. Atlanta's temp just flickered on my sidebar - I see it's 60 there. Clarity, we're warmer than you in February, for once! We're warmer than my aunt in Vegas, where it's 59. And 34 in London. 39 in D.C. LOL, aren't you guys glad I got my little temperature monitor so I can keep track of such mundane meteorological facts & details?
Wow this stuff is amazing. I did a little research on Ian. He has been around for a while and has some credibility. With him being a friend of Ted's and actually having Ted do a chat on his site rrecently is pretty impressive. It will be interesting if Ted mention this. Boibt he will though.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info chris. I bet your friend has been in Queen Latifahs trailer:-)
Well how long does Ian Halperin's site last now. You all might want to go save a copy of that item as keepsake!!!
ReplyDeleteSo will Jake be out with Reese this weekend? I think groping Reese's Chichis (Michael K's dlisted is still my favourite gossip blog!) might help, or at least give us all a good laugh!
I picked this avatar because it was one of the first movies that made critics and HW aware of Heath's incredible talent. Heath was tremendous in Monsters Ball.
ReplyDeletePosted on WFT2:
ReplyDeleteIan source/investigation seems to be Ted, he even sources www.toothytile.com, just like JJ. Does he have anything indepenedent from Ted? Nothing he has posted is original, even the time frame: 4 years , it's the time frame of the TT BI. He is also wrong regarding the lawyers at E! They aren't tying his hands, it's a BI, he can say what he wants w/o naming names, Ted doesn't out anyone, Ian needs to do his homework.
Not to worry, the site and this post ain't going anywhere, if i'm correct JJ's site is still around and his recycled TT BI still is in the archives.
Ian may have more "cred" then JJ but he is "investigation" consists of Ted's TT BI, he even links to toothytile.com. He has nothing new or original to add. He is about to "out" Timberlake it sems, safe since he has been rumored to be bearding, so it's safe like Jake is.
Also he says that Ted wouldn't confirm if the lawyers at E put him in a straightjacket in regards of naming TT, Ian should no better, he can't be sued because it's a BI no matter how many from Defamer, Gawker, JJ and now Ian say it, they all hide behind the original BI,
Kind of teicky to do with Leo and Timberlake but since Will smith's people didn't go after him after the male escort story, Ian should have a quiet weekend.
I do think that if Ian expects anyone to believe he knows what he is talking about needs to present some proof. Ian cannot think that anyone will believe him if he doesn't have it. Just going on already live rumors wont go to far. I do see this guy as being just a bit more credible than JJ though. Ian has been around awhile and has a resume. JJ was a nobody trying to break into a business.
ReplyDeleteMaybe Ian shouldn't have mentioned TT, Ted and link to the Toothy archives. He plans on "outing" Timberlake it looks like, he can't hide behind a Ted BI but i'm sure he will use another BI that is about Timberlake, Leo too he is hinting at. He is playing it safe by referencing stuff that is already out there.
ReplyDeleteNot clear how credible this guy is or if this will go anywhere. Could be JJ 2.

Whats juicy about it imo is Reeke and how Reese is gonna deal with it. I want to see the controlling bitch squirm and try to save face.
ReplyDeleteretract the Vogue interview about her supportive boyfriend. LOL
ReplyDeletethe "family" vacations. LOL
ReplyDeleteHis bombshell about Will smith and the male escorts didn't go anywhere and at least that was original gossip and he sourced an HW madam. True there are gay rumors about Will and Jada but the escort story was new to me.
ReplyDeleteAny way Halperin's Smith story ran on yahoo and I think the NY Post picked it up but then it went dead. It's still on his site.
What i don't get is why these bloggers always go to the TT BI;s? And Halperin was real lazy, he linked to toothytile.com, at least JJ spun the TT story.
anyone in chat?
ReplyDeleteYou bet Chris there will be hell to pay now as far as reeke goes.
ReplyDeleteEven though Perez one of the best known gossip columnists in the business has outed Wentworth and given the reason he knows he gay hasn't made much difference. Until someone comes out themselves no one seems to listen in the general public.
TR came out because a fellow actor pretty much outed him. NPH came out because he was afraid one of his previous lovers would out him first. Clay came out because he had a kid. Not sure exactly why Lance Bass came out besides he had a steady boygriend at the time who I believe was out.
So we will have to see where this goes as far as the internet sites but until Jakes comes out it will not be offical and I dont think that is about to happen. He cant.
Reese dealt with the JJ story in Aug. of '07 where he not only "outed" Jake with the recycled TT story along with two BF's, Austin and Chris and a Baby and the NE story that JJ got his pals at NE to print (Even though the NE said the story was BS). Jake/Reese were spotted in MV with her kids if I remember, a brief "break-up" in sept. during Rendition and then Rome! And don't forget the Chris/Jake internet crap that was out there at the time.
ReplyDeleteIan had better have something other than TT.
Sorry to hear about your dad PG. And I'm just glad to hear you were attending to a higher calling; I just get a little nervous about the walking when we don't hear from you.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what to think of Halperin, except that I'm pretty sure it is not Ted.
Of course Ian is not ted, but his description of Jake is Ted's TT's 4our year old BI's, he even links to toothytile.com which is lazy and dumb considering he says that it's an "investigation", which apparently includes following the BI for the past 4 years, checking out the toothy archives and having Ted on his chat show! How about talking to someone who actually had sex with Jake?
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteSorry your Dad isnt doing well PG. I am sure you are a wonderful daughter. I hope for the best.
ReplyDeleteWow I was just reading some reviews for I love you Phillip Morris. It sounds wonderful and Jim Carrey is getting excellent reviews. He could be the next str8 man to receive an Oscar nom for playing a gay guy.
ReplyDeleteAnd Lee's taking Woodstock is also getting excellent reviews.
Glad to hear that you had good weather today PG. It was a beautiful day here in ATL too. It felt good to have just a light jacket on. Im SO looking forward to spring.
ReplyDeleteCool avitar Tom. Nice pic of Austin today : )
Of course Reeke will respond by Reeking more but it's got to annoy Tracey Flick that she can't sell this 'plot' no matter how hard she tries.
ReplyDeleteAnd the babblers and PR can call this guy just another delusional twit etc but look at their problem.
They have all the power on their side, they have the tabloids on their side, majority of the paps etc and they still can't sell Reeke to the average person.
The average person either thinks Jake is gay, thinks Reeke is for PR purposes only or worse yet, Does not care at all.
Let's face it. In the world of HW bombs, Reeke is the PR romance version of Waterworld.
Excellent comment, ag. Could never have said it any better. For all the carrying on they do, it's got to be maddening that they just can't seem to put the little fires out.
ReplyDeleteI hear ya, Destiny. I have to deal with that guy every day; especially today & yesterday when he's riding his bike and comes up by me out of nowhere. But I have my $ 7.99 aluminum walking stick from Wally World now and actually getting quite used to it. It's becoming part of my workout. And it's a brilliantly bright, deep red. Very shiny & eyecatching.
Thanks for the thoughts on my dad, guys. It's all still pretty new - malignancy in his upper left lung. His doctor moved extremely fast & by the time he & Mom told me & my sister, he'd already had his first chemo. Had the 2nd one yesterday. I know that lung cancer is not a highly survivable one; the one good thing is they already did a body scan and it hasn't spread anywhere else. Our whole family has been so fortunate all our lives; this has really shocked us all. He did smoke when we were smaller kids but I bet he quit when he was still in his 30's. So who knows.
Anyway, I don't mention it to dampen spirits or anything like that; people deal with this illness everyday, everywhere. I guess you just never think it'll happen to you.
Enough of that. I share everything with you guys, well, just about everything. I think today was the first time I actually said the C word. It's taken awhile.
Glad you had lightjacket weather, Clarity. It is great, isn't it? Will take it every day we can get it. That's one less day of winter weather, is the way I see it.
Sweet dreams to everyone.
(((Prairie Girl))).
ReplyDeleteWaterworld, LOL.
(((PG)))
ReplyDeleteI worked with a client who only had half of one of her lungs left due to lung cancer. She lived like that for quite a few years, and was close to 80 when she died. It's amazing what people can survive and how long they can survive it.
Ian Halperin has nothing new to add to the Toothy Saga. IUC investigation, indeed. What a joke!
ReplyDeleteYou're the joke, Rattler. Why do you come here? Seriously?
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like Austin's new character Lincoln is a photographer.
ReplyDeleteMaybe Lincoln Booth has nothing to do with politics. Photography (or a film director? fashion photographer?), NYC fancy-schmancy, and politics - some deadly cocktail already. I can't wait for the next installment.
Why do you come here?
ReplyDeleteOld habits die hard :):)
Unfortunately, Ted’s lawyers at E have put a straitjacket on him,
ReplyDeletepreventing him from releasing the name of the subject of the world’s
most famous blind item (though Ted refused to confirm this to me when

I don't think Ian is copying Ted or using him. I think Ian is doing Ted a favor since Ted's lawyers won't allow him to release the name. Ian is doing it for him at his request. Ted may not have confirmed the lawyer's forbidding of releasing the info when Ian "had him on IUC for a chat a couple weeks ago" but that does not mean that it wasn't confirmed at another time, like last week.
So NO this isn't a matter of Ian copying TT blind items or using Ted. Its a surreptitious method of getting the answer of Ted's Toothy Tile out there without directly linking it to Ted and putting the weight of it on an independent journalist not associated with E Online. Even if it has to be misspelled as Gyllenhall by Ian in the article (but funnily enough it was tagged correctly as Gyllenhaal).
Maybe Ted wants out of Eonline and will partner will Ian to create a website that will compete with Perez, Just Jared, DListed. etc.

As the name Toothy Tile is spread across the internet an identified as Jake the time will come that Jake is pressured out of the closet. Its inevitable. Joke is on you Rattler.
Ian updated his site:
ReplyDeleteIUC Exclusive: Justin Time For the Grammeys…Why Does ianundercover Out Celebs?
I’ll reveal more very soon. Hundreds of teenagers kill themselves every year because they are gay and tens of thousands more are suicidally depressed because they are afraid to come out, which disgusts me. If people knew that people like Jake Gyllenhaal, their role models (actors, athletes, politicians) were gay, it would do a lot to get rid of the homophobia that plagues the world. Ever since I went undercover in Scientology and discovered the lengths people go to hide or change their sexuality, I have been on a mission. Simply put, there’s no excuse under the sun in the year 2009 that can justify why powerful, rich celebs remain in the closet.
peace out, ian
IUC
And so... where is the investigations??
ReplyDeleteThe Boston Globe, Feb 06: Shepard Fairey, the controversial street artist riding a roller coaster of publicity with his red, white, and blue posters of President Barack Obama, was arrested last night on his way to DJ an event kicking off his exhibition at the Institute of Contemporary Art.
ReplyDeleteSpecial K: Were you planning to attend the Exhibition?
You are so right, Wicked. I think my dad is being incredibly brave & my mom, too. They're going through this together & thankfully, they are people with faith, as well as with alot of friends.
ReplyDeleteYou know, whether or not this Ian guy is riding Ted's coattails or not, the fact remains that it is just someone else putting it out there. I don't have any reason to doubt he believes what he is writing. Heck, isn't that part of what reporting is about? Just like every popular story, you can google it and get 637 entries on the same story. They all quote from each other, but it doesn't mean they don't believe what they're writing. The same goes for myself. I didn't even know about TT until I read about it on the blogs, googled it and saw alllllll these entries on Jake being TT. What is blog writing, anyway? I guess it's more or less reporting the news. This Ian guy seems to have put out some serious journalistic works, anyway; it's not like he's an amateur.
I reckon it was similar for past stars like Rock Hudson & Raymond Burr, don't you think? Like, alot of people in HW knew, but it just was never published in print, until after they had passed away. Or at least for Rock Hudson, until he became ill.
And what is this about Justin Timberlake? Now that one kind of boggles my mind. I just don't know what to think about that. I don't know that I've ever read or heard anything about Justin Timberlake, maybe I've missed it.
