Golden Glow

Think some had thought Jake had been nominated for a Golden Globe before yesterday's announcement. Jake has gotten an Oscar nomination, a SAG nomination and won the BAFTA. Brokeback won 4 Golden Globes but that was one nomination that alluded Jake.

Not anymore.

Jake was nominated yesterday for his first Golden Globe, (Best Actor Comedy or Musical) by the Hollywood Foreign Press .


Jake told Variety about finding out about the nomination, "it was almost delivered by messenger." And added,"I would have loved to have had it delivered by some person in Shakespeare garb." But it was a flurry of phone calls, texts, and 25 emails, including one from Annie who was also nominated, and it was, transcribed by Jake, “Dude! Exclamation point. Congrats! Millions of exclamation points. You did it! Exclamation points. First Golden Globe nom, right? Millions of question marks. X.”

Anne has been nominated for a Golden Globe for her role in Rachel Getting Married. Jake spoke about being nominated together for their work on LaOD. "It’s nice because the last movie we did [Brokeback Mountain] was acknowledged with awards. There’s something about us working together that seems to feel good and feel right." Both must be also excited that they get to share it with Michelle too, who was nominated for her role in Blue Valentine.

Speaking with the entertainment new shows yesterday you can see how sincerely flattered Jake is from being nominated. This is the true blue fella that we've known for all these year. And happy, happy talking about getting ready to celebrate his birthday and the holiday with his family. He's got that sense of excitement that comes with the anticipation of being with the one(s) you love.


















Jake finds himself up against Kevin Spacey,Paul Giamatti and Johnny Depp squared in the race, but Jake's past might help him. In 2006 he was up against Don Chealde, Matt Damon and the "George Twins" for the BAFTA, taking the win. Go Jake Go.



The awards will be telecast live Jan. 16 on NBC from the Beverly Hilton Hotel.

Ricky Gervais will return as host of the three-hour ceremony. Do you think he will be able to resist the urge to make a joke about a stiff one? The Viagra maybe, the boozey crowd no way.


Win or lose Jake always has his golden guy, goy, goose.


Now that's a ring ...
and a good stocking stuffer for a Big Ring lover.

Jake Gyllenhaal grabs lunch at Angelini Osteria on Tuesday (December 14) in Los Angeles.

The 29-year-old actor waited at the valet curb for his car before heading home from the Italian restaurant.

USA Today congratulated Jake on his Golden Globes nomination - then asked who his date for the ceremony would be!

“I didn’t think I was getting nominated!” Jake said. It’s going to be a long, slow burn for me. I’m not rushing into anything!”

“I was asleep. I didn’t wake up. It was pretty unexpected,” Jake added. “I got a call and then I checked my phone and I had 25 e-mails, and it was either disconcerting or exciting. In this case it was exciting.”

Jake Gyllenhaal knows exactly how to keep his new woman Taylor Swift happy. He’s buying his way to her sweet little heart!

According to The Sun, bought her a rare $11,000 Fender Gretsch guitar signed by country music legend Chet Atkins for her 21st birthday.

The Past, Present & Future of Taylor and Jake

"He spent the weekend in Nashville with her and she saw the guitar in a tiny store which a lot of A-list musicians use. Taylor drooled over it so Jake went back to the shop later and bought it for her.

“He was originally going to buy it just as a gift but it ended up being perfect for her birthday on Monday.

With Austin tweeting he's Johnny Depp does that mean he's saying he's double teaming Jake? :D

Music Lover said...

Big Congrats to Jake and Anne and Michelle! Austin looks good behind the camera too, in yesterday's post. Congrats to him too.

Great song. :)

no guitar said...

Gyllenhaal did not break the bank now on a pricey guitar for Swift, either.

A source close to the actor tells us it’s “not true,” and Swift sources in the know never heard anything about it.

Have you ever seen so much back & forth, tug-o-war, Red Rover, Red Rover, "he's mine!! no, he's mine!!!", Hatfield & McCoys nonsense in your Hollywood gossip life?

It's like the skies have parted and it's the Big Battle. It's Armageddon. The powers are all fighting over the soul of Jake.

You never saw this much printed media squabble over Reeke but this Dick & Jane sandbox playdate gig of Jaylor has everyone all worked up.

It's like watching a Disney soap opera. If Disney had soap operas, lol.

prairiegirl said...

Boy, the ol' PG is down for the count a little bit tonight.

My ankle is swollen on the outer part big-time. At first this morning, it was about the size of a Cutie orange, this round ball.

Now, it's this concave, puffy mass over my ankle bone, all discolored. Got a bruise on my upper shin that's all black & blue. My little buddy made me call my doctor so an Xray is on the agenda tomorrow.

Man. How disastrous. I'm just glad it didn't happen at work.

Why does everyone keep telling me to elevate it? That's what everyone keeps saying.

Too bad we can't rewind time.

I'm still reeling from the Zac Efron/Vanessa Hudgens break up. I thought that was going to go on forever.

Special K said...

After countless sprains and two ankles surgeries - here's my best advice.

RICE

Rest - get off it

Ice - Ice it 20-30 minutes several times a day

Compression - Wrap it

Elevation - Get it higher than your heart to start reduce the swelling

and take an anti-inflammatory to reduce the swelling and manage the pain.

And if you really want to go crazy, fill up a bucket half ice and half cold water, stick your foot in and try not to yell too loud. It will take the swelling down.

the real m said...

Sorry to hear about your ankle PG. Yes, keep it elevated and ice it to keep the swelling down.

That guitar story is just another example of a pre-written fairytale getting out. They probably assumed Jake would be with Swift for her birthday and so wanted to let out a story about a gift. Except he wasn't there but the story ran anyway. One more PR misfire to add to the heap.

In all the excitement yesterday I forgot to mention how wonderful it is that Austin will get to work behind the camera. He strikes me as having a directors personality. Quirky and sure of his taste. Jake, not so much. He wants to please all the time and when you have to make quick,tough decisions that doesn't work well. That is one episode of OTH I will look forward to seeing.

destiny said...

((PG)). Hope your ankle heals soon. And boy, it sure sounds cold there.

I find ot odd that gossip cop is doing so much checking on the Swyll bs. Wonder why.

Jake Gyllenhaal Opens Up On Dating Taylor Swift

Look, if Jake Gyllenhaal refuses to let the tabloids on his sexy times with Taylor Swift, then they’ll just have to pretend he did. How else can we explain The Huffington Post (it’s a tab, accept it) claiming Jake said he’s “‘not rushing’ things with Taylor Swift” when he was merely told USA Today he’s “not rushing” into announcing his Golden Globes date? “Dude, I didn’t think I was getting nominated. It’s going to be a long, slow burn for me. I’m not rushing into anything!” Besides, he probably has to make sure Kirsten Dunst and Reese Witherspoon won’t be there first—and pick out a corsage.

USA Today

Huff Po

Hollywood Life

Meanwhile, E! Online and Us are tussling about whether Jake attended Taylor’s boring 21st birthday. The mag originally said Swyllenhaal were “cuddly” at the Nashville pizza party, only to pull the story once E! shrieked that Jake was busy buying fro-yos in LA that day. Hey, Us decided to twist Jake’s “not rushing” line into a comment on his relationship, too—if the young (and younger) lovers don’t make a statement soon, someone’s brain is going to melt over there.

prairiegirl said...

Thanks for the expert advice, guys. Yes, elevate, elevate!! It does seem to feel better when I stay off of it. It needs to heal up like, real fast. There is not time for this kind of stuff.

I'm mostly upset about not getting to walk.

This tug of war over Jake is unreal this time around. It's 10 times worse than it was over Reeke.

I liken it to people being so turned off, flabbergasted & disheartened over Jake bearding again and just not liking the match up that we all are clinging to the last couple of threads of Jake's coat sleeves before he slips out of our grasp and over the edge.

The only ones who like this Jaylor whatever it is thing, are the rags (and the only reason they are is because of the PR firms pushing it) and some Taylor Swift 18-21 yr old fans. Everyone else sees it for what it is and would love to just see the darn thing end.

And so there's this fight going on over Jake's soul, the likes of which we've not seen. Proclamations being made and denials flying everywhere.

It's becoming like a big feather pillow fight gone wild.

prairiegirl said...

And said it once, but I'll say it again. Jake better take a good long look at all of this drama.

Because it's not going to get any better.

The helicopter spotlights are on him & Tiara Tay Tay and he really will have no privacy as long as this thing is going on. Outrageous headlines & stories. Paparazzi everywhere you turn. Flashbulbs. Tons of pressuring questions.

How long can you keep dodging? Talking in double meanings to throw off the scent? Evading the paps? It will drive him mad.

The swelling really went down last night. Too bad I have to go into work today and walk on it.


LOL. A big ring for a big ring lover. Big ring for a big hand. lol.

prairiegirl said...

You know, one thing continues to stick in my craw, and that is Sophia expanding her story about having a relationship off & on with Austin from 4 years to 5 1/2.

And that big miscue seeming to be glossed over & ignored by all the Sophin fans. No one questions it, no one even notices it. And she has done this in print.

4 years has become 5 1/2.

Tell me, how does one forget when they met someone they're so "romantically involved" with?

If she dated Austin 5 1/2 years ago, that means they were dating practically in 2004. And so where did they meet - allegedly? She never says.

You know, I remember a pretty old picture of Sophia sitting on Austin's lap at some party in NYC. I'm not sure of the date on that. And the pictures of her, Austin AND Jake at the beach - I'm not sure when that was either. I'm just wondering when our first pictures of her & Austin actually surfaced. Are they supposed to have met at UCLA? But Sophia's bio says she went to Univ. of Southern California. Those are two different schools, aren't they?

So she married Chad Michael Murray in Apr 2005 (I'm cheating on Wiki, lol). and divorced in Sept 2005. So if she's been dating Austin for 5 1/2 years, that means she was dating him during her marriage to Chad Michael Murray?

Is my math off or what? I know it's early. lol.

Sorry, I just think she needs to be called out on this big Pinocchio statement.

"Just Jake" & Sophia - January 25, 2006

"Just Austin" & Sophia - February 12, 2006

According to the rumor mill, One Tree Hill star Sophia Bush is dating not one but two eligible bachelors: Oscar nominee Jake Gyllenhaal and actor Austin Nichols (Glory Road). "We all met up on a hike and, apparently, I'm with both of them," she says of the tabloid buzz. "If I have to be in the company of men, I'm glad it's those two."

In reality, Bush is single and has been separated since October from her costar and husband of only five months, Chad Michael Murray.
People Magazine Feb 15, 2006

Sitting In NYC Club (Beatrice Inn) - Feb 5/6 2007

Austin went to USC from 1998-2002 (graduating with a degree in creative writing)

Sophia went to USC from 2000-2003 leaving early after landing the role on OTH

And 5 1/2 yr would have her dating Austin while she was dating engaged and married to Chad Michael Murray.

On April 16, 2005, Bush married actor Chad Michael Murray, her One Tree Hill co-star. They dated for almost two years before they were married in Santa Monica. They announced their separation on September 26, 2005 after five months of marriage when Bush filed court papers to have their marriage annulled citing fraud. In December 2006, Bush and Murray's divorce was finalized.

Special K said...

Oops let me correct that she would have only been married to Chad to when her relationship with Austin started.

lol said...

poor gasbags, still harping on about Sophia.

Ted said...

[The first two question were together.]

Dear Ted:
Did Carrie Fischer beat you to outing Toothy Tile?
—J

Dear Fishing for Goss:
No.

Dear Ted:
You say Jake Gyllenhaal hasn't given up on his B.V. ways. He is dating America's most virginal sweetheart. Does this mean she's not the angel she portrays herself as, or is Jakey indulging passions somewhere else?
—ML

Dear Vice for a Vice:
Tay's got some secrets she isn't exactly writing songs about, but she's still pretty much an angel, which is why Jake likes her so much, natch. We're starting to think this might actually be a match made in Vice heaven. Who knew?

Dear Ted:
What's the deal with Anne Hathaway and Jake being attached to each other lately? Obviously, Jake can't trot out Reese Witherspoon for photo ops anymore, but is there really no one left in Hollywood willing to do a PR stunt with him anymore?
—SarahTV

Dear Costar Cavorting:
Anne and Jake? Really? Doll, they're promoting a movie together—which means they're traveling from press conference to premiere to junket together dishing about the flick. Plus the two are way tight—which I think is adorable.

Bitch Back

^Ted said...

There is one more question mentioning Jake between the last two:

Dear Ted:
We've been together (in my head) since E! was lowercased! Totally miss your TV show from back in the day. I know gossip is the horse your rode in on, but thank you for the socially conscientious commentary as well. I've never guess any of your Vices and have long since stopped trying. But I do have one question: Which of the more notorious Blind Vicers (beside their vice) do you believe are otherwise wonderful, well-adjusted human beings? Someone with whom you'd want to share family dinners? Or is that an oxymoron? Happy Holidays to you to you and the good folks at E!
—Mal

Dear Nice Try:
Tempted to say Oprah, but that's really just so laughable. Nobody, sadly, save possibly Jake?

gossip crap said...

Gossip cop has been "exposing?" rag BS not only regarding jake destiny. They don't have any sources but they know that the rags are fiction so it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure it out.

Taylor is more popular than Reese so of course there is more bs to be exposed. The London flight, the guitar, the party and the moving in together and that Taylor is jealous of Anne are all obvious bs. The only thing GC is on board with is that they are dating.

They also called BS on Jake buying china for Reese and a doll house for Ava and trashed People for saying Jake and Reese broke up, but of course they did.

Haven't you ever been "romantically involved"?

prairiegirl said...

Thanks Special, for those dates.

And I will harp on some fabrication that comes out in a quote in a printed publication. And is repeated.

She needs to stop. It's called lying.

LOLLLL! So she began off & on'ing with Austin when she married Chad Michael Murray. That's awesome.


5 1/2 years. My foot.

Raging with jealousy that Sophia went to college, has been married, and is now dating pg's secret fantasy bf Austin, LOL!!

As we know, any idiot can drop out of college, get married for five months, and "date" a gay man. Not exactly a role model for literacy or stability. Nor a source for jealousy. More like an example of audacity and mediocrity. Maybe if Soapy had finished college she might have been able to apply basic mathematical and scientific principles to her faulty recollection about her so-called "romantic" past. Translation: Sophin simply does not add up, defies the law of gravity and gives relativism a whole new meaning.

SK bearded for a gay friend of hers...would you denigrate her as "not exactly a role model for...stability"?

SK gave her reasons and I respect that. You know nothing about Sophia's life.

Worst Holiday Rendition of The Christmas Song. Ever .

Perhaps of any Christmas song. Ever.


"The Christmas Song" by Christina Aguillera.


She does more wiggly worms up & down the octave scale in this song than you can shake a stick at.

My all-time un-favorite Christmas song. Ever.

Someone is very unhappy and the are back again for another day and another way to distract, attack and create chaos. And it is obvious who that is. Another tactic still doesn't change who you are.

I remember Ted's old TV show. It was also called The Awful Truth - right? I was in high school. It was, like, the only source of gossip back then! Ted was young, and sassy.

So... do you think Jake would want to sit down to a private, home-cooked meal with Ted C.? They'd have plenty to talk about.

I don't know about the well-adjusted part. In all honesty, it's true - Jake strikes me as one of the more well-adjusted stars in Hollywood, save for his double life, which will un-adjust anyone after awhile.

the real m said...

I can see why they are unhappy. The lies are so blatant no one in their right mind believes the fauxmance this time around.

Here Ted goes advertising the fauxmance again. I suppose he thinks its OK this time since Taylor is allegedly still a virgin and Jake is gay. No sex wanted by either party so no harm done.
