Strained Bedfellows?

Austin's tweet yesterday from American Psycho (Do you like Phil Collins? "Sussudio" is a personal favorite. -Patrick Bateman) triggered a thought about Austin's own work on a Bret Easton Ellis' story. Yup, The Informers.

Austin played Martin who was sleeping with anything that moved, including Graham (Jon Foster), Christie (Amber Heard) and Graham's mom (Kim Basinger).

And with Graham and Christie at the same time.


Now could be a little difficult for any actor to do in front of a camera and a bunch of union guys standing around.

But here's the real sticky wicket.

According to comments this past summer, regarding the "history" of Austin and his OTH co-star's relationship, that it was on and off for four years.

And during that time she was seen dating other guys. Hey it's on and off.

One of the other guy was Jon Foster. And as recently as August 2007 on a gossip site that's very enamored of the lady.

The Informers was shot in November of 2007. So who was dating who by then? Was it Jon? or Austin? Who was on and who was off?

Austin and Jon had the bulk of their scenes together and it never seemed like there was a trouble between the two. Which you think could be so when two guys are involved with the same woman. But as professionals you can put those things aside.


But still what kind of conversation starter do two naked guys in bed who have "dated" the same woman around the same time, have between takes?

Just wondering.

Amber Heard probably has more balls than Jon and Austin put together.

LOL, Destiny.

Although I do love the latest tweet from Austin. Looks like maybe he's sending a message to everyone who has started to doubt a certain love story because of Ted's post today.

And It Ain't: Sophia Bush, Amber Heard or Maggie Gyllenhaal

And you know--it ain't fiction
Just a natural fact
We come together
Cuz opposites attract

{Repeat Chorus}

Baby ain't it somethin'
How we lasted this long
You and me
Provin' everyone wrong
Don't think we'll ever
Get our differences patched

Don't really matter
Cuz we're perfectly matched

Ahh the sage wisdom of Paula Abul.

I can see that.

This is what happens when you challenge Ted. Jake and Toothy targeted everyday. E has been working on that Toothy archive forever, since it was lost at the time of the format change, but I guess Adam was the impetus to get it done finally. Strip clubs? Really Jake? How creepy can you get. When I first saw it I read it as strip malls. Had to go back and check and yes indeed, it was strip clubs. Jake, we keep telling you that you need new management. They do not have your best interests at heart.

Real M, I think there's still a couple of drops left in that glass.

What the hell does Jake's PR have to do with Ted's fairytale?

Special K said...

There isn't anything random about this in the Blind Vice Archive this morning and then the comment Ted made this afternooon

The Perp: Toothy Tile

Primary Vice: Closeted actor

Blind Bio: A-List actor, prevalent in the tabloids but not so much Hollywood clubs. Has been deep in the closet for quite sometime, but at one point was going to come out until his team of conniving lettuce-eaters convinced him it was a career kiss of death.Has been in a serious relationship with Grey Goose and the two have a kid together, Baby Tile. Will Toothy ever come out?


Uh, oh. Looks like our handsome, beloved, sexually confused Blind Vice stud Toothy Tile is back to taking bad advice from his short-sighted, money-grubbing handlers. 'Cause T2's again trying to make it appear as if he's actually into bedding women. So gross.

Desperate Tooth, who hasn't exactly had an easy time of it at the box-office (or on the home front, for that matter), has taken to lurking around out-of-town strips clubs,





Wonder what he does when the babes finally get him home?

Swap recipes, recycling tips, good bike paths and where to find the best farmers markets.

All of this seems terribly out of character for the primary caregiver of a child, doesn't it? Certainly the little fact of BT must have entered his mind when Ted was crafting this tale about Jake and strippers. Ted, WHAT ABOUT THE CHILD????

destiny said...

I really hate the bearding, but got to say again it's great that Austin is tweeting about this issue. Plus throw in the comments about Bardem and Brazilian guys which adds some ambiguity. Soooo different from Jake.

And interesting the timing on the tweet about opposites attract. Not sure what to make of that.

When "Love and Other Drugs" came to town, Ms. Blair got another call from Mosser Casting — to play a friend of Ms. Hathaway's character.

"In the world of extras, it was a step up," she said. she and another woman spent a day with a photographer taking Polaroid photos and wearing early 1990s clothing. she doesn't know where the pictures will be used, but she guessed they could appear as decorations in Ms. Hathaway's apartment.

Later, she was an extra in a scene in a North Side cafe, and she spent the entire day sitting near Mr. Gyllenhaal and Ms. Hathaway. that was exciting, but the highlight, she said, was splitting a piece of cheesecake with Mr. Gyllenhaal at a meal that day for the cast and crew.

Austin has found a way to use twitter and say what he wants to say, and at the same time what is kind of expected with the whole show, and all of that. It's been a little rocky, but but he's getting a handle on navigating it to getting out what he wants to say.

Special K said...

Austin is really covering his trip to Austin, even twitpicing departure gates.

Home Sweet Home http://twitpic.com/2tsbe0

But man who is doing his travel arrangements if it has taken him this long to get where he is going? If he is doing it himself he needs to fire himself and get somebody else.



Here's the rest of his travelogue:

So sad that all of you people haven't seen that Ted has been full of crap right from of the beginning. It is all lies. Wake the hell up don't let this guy make you all look like fools.

lol. Trolly is now disguising himself as "a friend"

lol said...

Poor haus hags, Ted's nose grows bigger with every tidbit he writes about "Toothy" - his fictional blind item star

london tb said...

Liking Austin's work, a conscience is so attractive.

Special K said...

Hi London, and I agree.

good grief said...

Wait a minute, I thought the company line was to believe Ted. Guess that doesn't apply when Ted talks about trouble on the homefront, though. I guess you think Austin is bearding on the one hand, but yet sending you lot secret coded twitter messages on the other. good grief.

dina said...

C'mon good grief - you must realise by now that everything here is cherry picked to suit their delusions of happily married J&A and BT!

Funny how they have all gone quiet about there being two BT's, since Ted can't remember his own lies.

I agree also London. I think Austin hasnt completely sould his soul yet. Hopefully Disney doesn't get to him.

I just cant imagine Jake going to strip bars. No way in heck.

Can't put that one on Ted. He never said there were two BTs. Over-eager Baby Tile believers took some vague comment and ran with it...
