Hello Mr Jake Gyllenhaal I Elmo.

Hi Elmo, my friends call me Jake.

Elmo like Jakey better

(Giggling) Ohhhh Kay

Mr. Jake Gyllenhaal, I mean Jakey...hee hee hee hee... have ever been to Sesame Street?

No Elmo, but my mom used work there

Work on Sesame Street? Like Maria? hee hee hee hee, Elmo no know her.

You could be on Sesame Street.

I'm going to be on Sesame Street.

No ..hee hee hee... you look like us.

Elmo mean that you are very hairy. Like Elmo.

Well I don't have hair on my back like you.

Elmo says you will Mr. Jake Gyllenhaal, You will. hee hee hee hee

Then you and I will be alike.

No, Because Elmo's cuter and handsomer

Elmo I hear you like to cook.

Elmo loves to cook. Elmo a good cook.

I like to cook Elmo.

Nooo you don't cook Elmo, you cook food.

(Giggling) I mean I cook too.

You might but you no Mr. Batalli.

I know Mr. Batalli

That 's right you no Mr. Batalli.

Right I know Mr. Batalli

Mr. Jake Gyllenhaal Elmo confused.

So is Mr. Jake Gyllenhaal.

Elmo you're very funny.

Elmo says Jakey funny too. But you're no Mr. Gervais.



Let's don't start this again.

What do you do Mr. Jake Gyllenhaal?

I'm an actor Elmo.

You mean like Mr. Robert DeNiro?

Yes Elmo. Just like that. Hmmm, let's see what movie might you know? Donnie.. no, Good...no, Brokeback..nooo I played aBubble Boy.

A Bubble Boy? Elmo knows now you no Mr. DeNiro.

Elmo...

Jakey. Hee hee hee hee. Elmo still cuter.

Do you have a Tickle Me Elmo at home?

No I have a Tickle Me Nichols

Elmo giggles when he's tickled. What does Tickle Me Nichols do.

Anything he likes.



And when you gotta go you gotta go. Story in the Pittsburgh paper about the reporter's family of Gladys Kravitzes ( Must say if I ever had a cat, I would name it Mrs. Kravitz, best cat name ever) who were getting there Gladys up when Jake and Anne were filming. The reporter explains that "anyone spreading gossip is Kravitzing and, if the dirt is good, can at least temporarily hold the title "Gladys of All Kravitzes." And this Kravitzing was about Jake and Anne.


"My wife tells me she and our two daughters are going to walk around the corner to Shannon's house because Shannon had called to say Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway were talking in the vacant lot outside her bathroom window."....

"They never got inside Shannon's. There was no need. While they were still on the stoop, Gyllenhaal ran right past them for the corner coffee shop, Hoi Polloi, evidently to use the bathroom. (Pennsylvania's film tax credit buys a lot of coffee.)"

It was our daughter Clare, celebrating her 10th birthday that night, who provided the best reporting of the evening. When I asked what she thought of seeing a famous actor on her birthday, she said, "It looked like he really had to go because he ran into Hoi Polloi."

Think Clare wins the "Gladys of Kravitzes".

Read the whole story at the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette


And this from Zechautograph:
So we leave and stumble onto the Jake Gyllenhaal/Anne Hathaway set. Yet another good set up and NO COPS around. It was fantastic. We got Anne leaving the set, but she did not do pics w/"

Jake says he can't, he has to run. We find the trailors and he is alrady inside, but after about 1/2 hour, comes out and, this is NO JOKE, APOLOGIZES TO US FOR MAKING US WAIT. After everything I had heard about this guy, he told us he was sorry for making us wait, took pictures with us, talked for a little while. And signed 1 per, personalized and thanked us for being fans. THIS IS NOT A JOKE.

Maybe had to just to go got go got go right now.

Cute picture of Jake with Elmo.

Funny story about Jake and the coffee shop, although I would have thought they'd have trailers/bathrooms while on location like that?

Seaweed said...

For now I'll just let the thought of Jake having a "tickle me Nichols" at home stoke the rest of my day.

I needed something like this to sustain my hopes for two young bucks.

m said...

I love it. Tickle me Nichols. Perfect.

destiny said...

I've been thinking about how stirred up people were a few days ago. I suspect it has a lot to do with the fact that Jake clearly spent the weekend in NYC with his dad and not in L.A. for Deacon's birthday. And yet if you believe all the tweets, Reeke was in San Fran the weekend before. So we're to believe they flew all the way across the country in the middle of weekend for a romantic day or two in S.F., but not for Deacon's birthday. Bad stepdad.

wft2 said...

What did you women do or say to PG? She seems really upset.

BTW, Jake looks like he is about 40 years old in that pic with Elmo.

Special K said...

The tweet from SF was a coffee place that kept getting retweeting in different forms and then there was one ... oh I saw them in the airport after those.

I don't know what anyone did or said to PG to make her upset. No one her wants her upset. I don't anyone to be upset despite differences of opinions that happen here.

She has it all – a successful Hollywood career, famous boyfriend and beautiful kids – but when it comes down to it, Reese Witherspoon says she thinks of herself as a single mom making it through the day.
...
Witherspoon, who has moved on from former husband Ryan Phillippe to a supportive boyfriend in Jake Gyllenhaal, also spoke about the new Avon fragrance she has launched, In Bloom.

my friend commented that she thought his eyes looked terribly sad in the elmo pic. he looks very strange to me, and i can't quite define it, but he definitely looks off. i've been thinking that a lot lately. i think he looks very gaunt in the face: maybe he's lost weight. it makes me wonder even more about all the dr's visits. :(

sienna said...

the most interesting thing about the People article, imo, was the placement - right in the middle - of a link to Reese and Jake's steamy weekend getaway. i clicked on it, thinking it was something about the aforementioned trip to sfo, but no, it was a link to the article from april about Coachella.

i understand that they include links to recent related stories whenever they post a new story, but still, to put that right in the middle of the story was rather misleading, since it was very old news.

whatevs. s.

ps: PG, i hope you aren't mad and avoiding us. if someone said or did something ugly, i missed it, but i'm sure it was a troll person and so irrelevant. don't let them get you down. :)

Special K said...

If you haven't check out the clip of Ricky Gervais and Elmo - definitely do. It is the outtakes and it is hysterical.

sienna said...

what do ya'll think about the way jake looks in the fanpic. he looks very stern and not happy about the situation, which i can kinda understand even tho he has to accept that as part of his job. i'm not talking about his expression tho - i'm talking about his face and body. he looks really skinny, imo. and altho the hair is kinda ick here for sure, it's not just that. he looks like he's lost all his extra flesh, and not in a good way.

and if anyone wants to complain about this post, just get over it. i'm not saying anything bad about him or his love life. i'm just wondering about his health, which i've been doing for a while now. :/

Sienna,

please don't apologize to trolls for saying what you think.

PoP trailer hits the Internet next week on November 3, and you'll be able to catch it in theaters before "2012" starting November 13.

From: MTV.com

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Jerry Bruckheimer's upcoming game-to-movie translation of "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time" is the next great hope for adaptations of this sort.

Joystiq writer Kevin Kelly most enjoyed the acrobatic action featured in the trailer, as this is a direct nod to the long-running game series. "Lots of jumping," he writes. Kelly also noticed a number of sound effects which appeared to be directly lifted -- or at least emulated -- from the game. He also compared the banter between Dastan and Tamina to the sort of dialogue you'd expect between Indiana Jones and his various lady-friends, which isn't terribly surprising.

The biggest worry expressed relates to the inordinate amount of CGI work on display in the trailer. The fear is that the movie "won't feel real." Particular scorn is reserved for the mystical Dagger's time-twisting abilities, which "leaves just [Dastan's] floating head, suspended above a whirlwind that resembles his body." Somehow, I can't quite help myself from picturing the "floating head doctor" gags on the hit sitcom series "Scrubs."

I could make a joke about Jake giving good head but I'll save it for later. ; )

destiny said...

ITA Sienna about the fanpic.

Special K said...

Jake has lost weight the weight he put on for PoP, and he is looking a lot thinner than he did back around this time in 2007 and early 2008, when he was sporting a happy pappy tummy.

He looks like he is back down to his fighting weight from around BBM.

Don't know if he did for the role, for himself, or if it out of being busy or stress.

Special K said...

The guy who got the autograph sounded like Jake was very apologetic about brushing them off before when he came out to sign and did picture. It surprised me that Anne didn't, I thought she would have been the one to do pictures with fans.

If you read the rest of the guys post on that site he talks about Rusell Crowe who is in Pittsburgh too and signed all kinds of stuff which surprised me. I didn't expect Crowe to be that friendly after the press about him and phones.

Florida Tom said...

I have to agree with you Sienna. Jake aint looking too great. He looks 40 years old for crying out loud. Gone is the spark that used to make this man glow.

Jake

m said...

Sienna, I thought Jake looked awful in that fan pic as well. Look how thin his lips are. His face is gaunt. Ang Lee said many times he had to be very careful how he filmed Jake. Very easy to get the wrong, unflattering angle. He went to great pains to make Jake and Ennis look good. That said, Jake still does not look well in that fan pic. Pap cameras are much better quality and maybe more forgiving, but still, it concerned me when I saw it. Like looking at a different person. Not well, soul-less. It gave me a creepy feeling and I am very sensitive to such things.

amused said...

Wow you make a lot out of a not so good pic, people! Chill out ... oh wait, wouldn't miss an opportunity to say something negative about him, would you?

neena said...

in the posted pic with shoes all around he does not look that thin, a bit serious but I have seen that expression countless times. I also don't think he looks 40, what are you talking about? I think it is just a case of pics not exactly perfect ... he looks fine.

old said...

The shoe pic is ancient.

oh hai trolly said...

oh wait, wouldn't miss an opportunity to say something negative about him, would you?

nor do you ... lol

sienna said...

that shoe pic is an old picture, isn't it? it looks like something i've seen before, long time ago.

i have a good friend who is very intuitive about people, and she has been saying the same thing about him for a while, that he looks lost. i feel the same. i think his life is not turning out like he'd hoped and he's kinda trapped with it. hopefully he'll get a chance to make some changes soon.

even after my disclaimer, we still got zapped for our negative comments. you wonder where these folks come from? talk about needing to get a life... geez!

Pop Stand said...

Leona Lewis says she turned down an opportunity to kiss Chase Crawford in her latest video because he isn't her type, and she didn't want to make her longtime boyfriend, Lou Al-Charmaa, jealous. "They wanted me and Chace to kiss in the 'I Will Be' video. But I said no way," Lewis said in an interview with the British magazine Sugar. She says the "Gossip Girl" star "needs roughing up a bit! He'd be a really pretty girl … He's so beautiful, I mean, look at him," she says. "But I just don't think of him like that. And it wouldn't be fair to Lou to kiss other guys." But she also said in the interview that her latest celeb crush is Jake Gyllenhaal -- "He's hot, and I like tall, rugged guys."

PoP Trailer Review said...

The trailer started with a 360-degree shot of Jake Gyllenhaal's Dastan standing on top of a rooftop cathedral cross. The voiceover that follows explained that "the Gods have a plan for Dastan". Then, a shot of Dastan with the mysterious Dagger of Time takes over. The footage moved further by displaying the "unlikely alliance" and possible romance of Dastan and Tamina. Ben Kingsley's Nizam and Alfred Molina's Sheik Amar are also seen.

PoP trailer review said...

Clark Kent says: They say this one is going to be a good one. What do you think?

The two-minute trailer starts off with a glimpse of the mythical land of Persia, which looks stunning, and then a brief look at the dagger that’s enclosed in a glass case.

“Have you ever wondered how you could have found such a treasure? The gods have a plan for you. A destiny,” we hear the princess saying as short clips of the scenes mentioned above play on the screen.

We then see Gyllenhaal jumping off a cliff and a few seconds later climbing a wall with arrows as his stepping stones. Someone shoots at him and he turns around looking nervous but annoyed as well.

“The sand turns back time,” the audience is told a few seconds into the trailer. “Only the holder of the dagger is aware of what’s happening.”

A quick clip is is shown of the prince holding the dagger and turning into sand.

PoP trailer review said...

It's too early to say this about a film adaptation from a video game, but I'm gonna: Based on an advance trailer screening for Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, the film is showing telltale signs of a 2010 blockbuster: big stars and a fun, fantasy-action storyline. Disney invited us and a slew of other media outlets to producer Jerry Bruckheimer's offices and private fortress where we watched the trailer twice.

1. A beefed up Jake Gyllenhaal – He's the Taylor Lautner of the movie, if you will. It was like watching a live-action Aladdin (who, I'm aware, is not Persian) leaping from rooftops and performing amazing parkour (physically overcoming obstacles) stunts, except this street rat isn't scrawny or cowardly.

The scenes where Jake uses the dagger to release the Sands of Time look well-polished, although Bruckheimer says they're still working to perfect it. The first time Jake uses the dagger, the sand and an electric-like current course through him, and he sees himself being brought back in time to a moment where he and Gemma are lip locked. He's floating above himself and suddenly morphs back into his own body. "Only the holder of the dagger is aware of what's happening," says a man's ominous voice. I'm guessing that's Alfred Molina, the prince's mentor.

While most movies adapted from video games don't translate to the screen too well, so far, Prince of Persia looks like a fun PG adventure.

sienna said...

that's an encouraging review of POP. maybe we will all be happily surprised! :)

PR said...

Why there was practicaly no comments about PoP footage shown at that Disney event?

PoP trailer screening in Bruckheimer's house is a great idea :)

Special K said...

Thanks for all the reviews PoP trailer. It sounds like the trailer's won a lot of fans and won over a lot of skeptics.

This is a review I found this morning when I got up. It's from IGN. Thought it was another one to share.

"We saw an unfinished cut back in September. Yeah -- 60 or so people and a full-blown event for a trailer. Seems a little overzealous, we know, but we have to admit, the trailer is definitely a winner, offering a compelling glimpse into Bruckheimer's next big thing: "

Then there are lots of details of the trailer itself. Check out the article.

It finishes with: " We're big fans of the Prince of Persia videogames and were naturally skeptical of the franchise's translation to the silver screen, but based on what little we've seen of the movie in the trailer, we're excited. Gyllenhaal works as the Prince, despite our initial reservations. There's plenty of well-choreographed action sequences complemented by spectacular special effects. The chemistry between the characters is already apparent. And there's enough fan service in the trailer alone to satisfy most naysayers. We're left with the impression that the Prince of Persia series is getting the full Pirates of the Caribbean treatment "

Definitely a review to click on and read the whole thing.

Found this in the ONTD comments about Jake & Elmo

Ugh this girl I went to high school with is in this movie with him "Love and Other Drugs" and she basically got to grind on him for a half hour.

They filled this big pajama party for LaOD, wonder if that is that scene she did.

More on the event

.com/celebrities/sophia-bush-philharmonics-inaugural-gala-at-walt-disney-concert-hall/

Seems that is the same person, so the guy that Sophia was photographed with walking into the
Philharmonic’s Inaugural Gala at Walt Disney Concert Hall” was Austin's brother in-law. Rowdy Stovall.

It's funny how certain gossip folks only notice what they want.

I'm sure it means nothing, her attending an avent with Austin's one and only brother in-law, the night before Austin attended two events with her.

Nothing at all. Because of course it was all for PR even if not once media outlet knew it was Austin's brother in-law or made a singel mention about it.

hmm said...

Not sure, but fist picture is Rowdy Stovall, Austin's brother in law.

LOL. Sophia, Austin and Rowdy are in the same business.

passingby said...

I didn't make anything up.
I provided you with photos and that is in fact Austin's brother in-law that she attended the event with.

Sure, it just so happens that all of a sudden Sophia is walking into events with Rowdy Stovall(who is based out of Austin, TX) because they are in the same industry.
Yet prior to this we have never seen Sophia's name associated with his anytime. Just like all the sightings of them as a couple are just made up.

Special K said...

Austin has said that to make movies you have to spend time in LA, and reference his brother in law Rowdy to make that point. So it is not that far fetched that Rowdy was in LA since he is a filmaker.

Rowdy does travel back and forth between TX and LA. And bet he might bunk at his BIL's.

hmm said...

Yet prior to this we have never seen Sophia's name associated with his anytime.
So?

Just like all the sightings of them as a couple are just made up.
You forgot all about previous fake "Austin and Sophia are dating" reports. Check them out.
