ER, JAKE WATCH, WE HAVE A PROBLEM...

We've caught Austin Nichols making The Gyllenhaal LOOK SHORT! Dude! You're making him look about 'Elijah Wood' 5'7 up there! Who the frig do you think you are?

I would usually impose immediate execution without trial for this most heinous crime of 'making Jake look marginally less hot' but seens as you're lovers and everything I'll let it slide...this time. I recommend in the future, that whenever you are near The Sex, you adopt this position:


Okay, so not that exact position (unless you're packin' a purple lycra catsuit? 'Cos that would be totally sweet), but you get my drift, right? On the knees, buddy. If you want to duck tape your shoes to your knees for full effect then be my guest. I guess it's okay to walk around at your normal height in the non-Gyllenhaal hours. Do we have an understanding? Good.

Love it! That guy makes Jake look chunky too!

I would still notice Austin only if he was blocking my view on Jake *LOL*

What is it? Jake decides the color of the day? and everyone around him conforms?
Yesterday, the girl at the bike shop, her flip flops and his sneakers.
Today's photo Austin's sneakers match Jake's filp flops?...

I think these photos are doctored.

Anonymous said...

LOL. Maybe Jake wears lifts in his shoes.

Dumbo said...

I saw this on WFT today (I wanted to see what they were saying about the Texas trip). Apparently there are more shots over at IHJ.

Personally I think the pic is flattering to Jake. He may look short standing by Austin, but his arms and general body tone look far better. Plus I hate black jeans, so hopefully Jake never buys/borrows those.

Clearly, it was "wear a white t-shirt, get a free frapuccino" day at Starbucks.

It's always interesting, in the papparazzi photo sequences, to guess at what moment the subjects made eye contact with the photographer. In this particular sequence, I'd say it's this picture.Mr. Nichols is looking straight at the offending lens. His look has not quite got the fervor of the Jewish Mother Death-Ray look administered by Naomi on the beach at Martha's Vineyard. This look is more like, "Yeah, I know you're there, dude."

Did anyone else notice how in step they are with each other in these photos (on IHJ)?

Just something I noticed.

And btw Austin looks semi-attractive now - is the Jakey magic rubbing off on him?

What is it with Jake and particularly flattering monochromatic t-shirts of late?

Anonymous said...

Jakey is all about the broad shoulders here. And the ruffled, Kennedyesque hair. And the nice legs. With long, tanned bare toes at the end of rhem.

[Sigh.] The weather tjust urned very cool last night. Definitely an autumnal crispness in the air.

I'm looking at these two in their t-shirts & humming, "After the boys of summer have gone."

Anonymous said...

Yeah, Austin looks pretty freaking tall there. But I'm only 5'2" so I don't need Jake to be any taller than he is.

No one wears a t-shirt quite like Jake.

Aaah, he's killing me! Again, those arms!! *thud*

Let's all move our desks into a circle, and then we'll go around the circle, clockwise, and take turns saying nice things about Austin.

I think Jake has a tendency towards the monochromatic look. He appears to be a victim of going to high school at a place where everyone probably had to wear uniforms.It's only when he's in places like Venice (Italy, not CA.) where he will get flashy and sport an orange necktie. In the pics I saw on IHJ, it looks like Jakey is doing all the talking. Austin looks peevish and silent. I think he's concerned with Pap lip-readers.

Anonymous said...

I just want it to be known, if Tom Cruise was in this picture he wouldn't be any taller than the window sill.

I just had to say it.

Agnes said...

Okay his arms looks really nice so I can't really focus on anything else...

Then I have this question is Austin on papparazzi bingo??

JadziaDragonRider said...

They both look yummy-hot in these pics. I almost wept with joy lol.

Someone ont he DC said and I agree Austin's face changes a lot I didnt' watch Seinfeld but one ep I did catch while waiting for Living Single to start was when Jerry was dating a woman who could look hot sometimes and fug at others. I wouldn't say Austin is ever fug to me but he doesn't always look this good. He's hot spindly lovin' right there.

Brit or PG is gonna get it for calling them "lovers" eventhough it was toungue-in-cheek. People get real spicy over that. Love y'all's sense of humor. THIS is the Jake I want to see. Man-Man Jake doesnt' do it for me like mandals wearing, frozen coffee beverage weilding, Austin courting Jake does. *happy sigh*

LOL at obnoxious!

Anonymous said...

i'm kinda new around here and have not yet studied all the jake pics available, but on those i did see he looks sorta hunched, i have that totally motherly urge to tell him "keep your back straight, love". (it is visible too in Brokeback Mountain when Jack and Ennis go to the bar at the very beginning)is it just me? or did I look at the wrong pics?

i would also like to point out that i have no idea who the guy next to jake is, but he DOES look hot. hot as in HE WOULD BE THE NEXT TARGET OF MY OBSESSION
LOL

britpopbaby said...

I think Jake suffers from muscle man syndrome where they build up the shoulder muscles so much it looks like they're not standing up straight.

Anonymous said...

*cough* I think this is one of your dirtier posts...sorry it's the "down on your knees" thing. ;)

But yeah, wow Jake looks small next to Austin. I don't think I knew how tall Austin really was. Plus Jake looks SO much younger without his beard.

Weirdland said...

For me, in this photos serie, Jake wearing sunglasses comes across a bit as Kevin Bacon.

britpopbaby said...

You have no idea about how dirty this post almost got...actually, you probably do. I found a pic of Britney on all fours.

Ok Britpopbaby,
So you want Austin to get on his knees every time he's close to Jakey?
Uh?

Haha kaydee, I was thinking that myself. Never looked twice at him until now...

Dumbo said...

Someone should wash all of your mouths out with soap. But before they do keep the funny stuff coming. Because you all have been giving me a ton of laughs today.

Looking at this picture again, Austin easily looks a good four inches taller than Jake. We might have to do a comparison to earlier pictures to see what is up.

Dumbo said...

Oh and a side note, we now know that Jake keeps his wallet in the front right pocket.

Sorry, Austin just doesn't do it for me. Seeing Jake with Heath or Peter or even Chris does it for me.
Big time! Don't know enuf about the kind of person Austin is. Feel like I know more about Peter and Heath. And Jake always mentions Chris in such an affectionate context. And funny, but if I have to think of a really hot pairing off, I'd love to see Jake and George Clooney together. And not all tuxed up like at the Oscars. More like on a boat on Lake Como in bathing suits, topless. George! Invite Jakey to Italy.

Anonymous said...

anon 7:42, I'm with you. Yeah Jake and Brad, or Jake and Paul Walker...... but whatever floats Jake's boat. Good to see them out together again. Really

I agree, even Chris seems hot especially at the oscars with Jake's mom and dad.

I am all for replacing McConastrong with George Clooney!

Slightly off topic, but does anyone have any links to interviews in which Jake mentions Chris? I can't recall ever hearing anything about him except through sites like this. Thanksy.

Because, deep down, I'm good hearted person, I've updated the Pap Bingo. Click on the BLOG button and then Projects.

And Austin is a certifiable hottie. I do love a long cool drink of water but I'm already cheating on Jake with Carmine Giovinazzo so I don't think I could juggle another lover at this present moment.

According to IHJ, those photos were taken on the fifth. So is he still in Austin?

I think Austin and Chris are adorable but Jake does it for me every time! The shots of him on the beach at MV are fantastic!! And he looks great here.

I just feel really bad that once again pictures of Jake have become a gay joke around the internet. I support and love Jake whatever his sexuality but I hate seeing him and any guy he is seen with mocked and made fun of in a nasty and deragatory (sp?) way. It's really not right to Jake or his friends. :(

Anonymous said...

Now Jake and George is a pairing I could definitely get behind! But I love them in tuxes--they are both absolutely hot in tuxedoes. There are no two men on the planet that look better in tuxes than those two.

Austin is looking better than he usually does in this picture. I think he's got a shorter haircut. His hair tends to look goofy. In general, he doesn't do much for me.

cina said...

@ Anon 9:08
I agree with what you said. I don't care about his sexuality either, it's the mocking and joking that I strongly dislike. And I don't just feel that way about Jake. It goes for ANY celeb. That's one of the reasons I'm not too fond of Perez Hilton for example.... Just look how he went on about Lance Bass, poor man. Just leave people be. That's all I'm saying.

I think Austin is at least 2 or 3 inches taller than Jake, plus the sneakers vs flip-flop effect. But Jake still looks like a gorgeous Adonis there... while Austin makes me want to get a pair of skinny black jeans, that guy can filled out a pair of jeans.

salailama said...

austin is hit or miss for me too (unlike jake). he must be quite tall to play a bball player in glory road, no? jake and maggie both slouch sooo much, but i actually think jake’s improved a lot since the days of donnie darko and the good girl (where i’m sure much of it was exaggerated for the role, but still).

anyway, just wanted to share that i’m addicted to blogsearching gyllenhaal because of funny sh-t like this!

9:37PM: Yeah, Jake took Chris Fischer to the Oscars. A picture finally surfaced over at the Dave Cullen Forum of Chris last monthof Chris and Jakes Mom and Dad. Jake isn't in the pic and I understand why. I think the picture was on wireimages all this time and somebody just found it. IHJ doesn't have it up because wireimages doesn't allow fan site to post pics. You can see Chris in the Oscar video from '06 on IHJ. It's Jake two girls and then Chris. Surprised no one else picked it up. I guess being a chef in NY isn't "sexy" enough.

So is he still in Austin?

Ha!! That's great.

Aw, poor Chris. I guess Hollywood just doesn't love nonfamous friends. But it's kinda cute that Jake brought his longtime friend. Who are the two girls?

Can we please have a link to the Chris at the Oscars photo? I'm really curious.

Maybe we didn't see Jake with him because he was busy with the press and had to sit in a different place.

Anonymous said...

I have tried to be my very nicest & find something about Austin's looks that appeal to me, but I can't. Yes, I tried. He just doesn't get me humming. Something about the squared-off forehead & the shape of his face. It reads as foreshortened or "off" to me, in some way. Whatever it is, it's clear to Nice Anonymous, after looking at this picture, why one of these guys is becoming a big star & the other is not. Jakey may love Austin with all his heart, but sorry, the tall one doesn't do anything for me.

When I look at this picture, Jake is the one who's got the more compelling presence & it doesn't matter at all if he's a little bit shorter. He's the one I want to look at. He just draws my attention.

And it doesn't even come down to Jake's face, even. If I compared the Gyllenhaal physiognomy, feature by feature, with a more classically handsome male -- take, for instance, Eduardo Verastegui, who's got far more regular-looking features -- even then, there's something indefinable about Jake. Something says: "Watch me."

Hence, the JakeWatch blog name.

12:00AM: Unfortunately it was posted over at the Dave Cullen forum, Jake eyelashers/4. It was in August and there is no way to search that mess for that picture, you will have to go through the whole thing. The video is up at IHJ and you can see Chris sitting next to a brunette. E-mail one of the moditors over at DC to see if they can help you retreive it.

While i'm on the subject of Chris, rumor is he is planning on opening his own resturaunt along with Jake! Don't know when it will happen though.

PS: Has any one ever heard of Cory Kennedy? I was talking to someone who is a photographer and he mentioned Jake and some girl named Cory Kennedy. Maybe I should just google.

Anonymous said...

Maybe the media leaves Chris alone bcz there isn't a whole lot you can say about him other than that he and Jake are friends and he's achef. And those are things Jake has said. There's this funny thing called media law that says the media has a LOT of leeway with waht they can say about public figures. Austin, Matthew, Lance, Heath, etc. They are fair game. Chris isn't a public figure. Even the tabliods walk a fine line when it comes to slander/libel. It gets expensive. The paps stake out Chris' apartment all the time...but they only cover Jake.

Anonymous said...

12:40, yes, Cory Kennedy is a club kid, still in her teens, who gets photographed a lot for her fashion sense. If I have the right person in mind. She's in those magazines that people who are very unlike Nice Anonymous like to read. I hadn't pictured Jake with someone like her. (They have the same sort of eyeballs, though.)

Anonymous said...

A google and you'll find her described as one of the heroin chic chicks. Not at all the kind of girl Jake would (or should, we insist) go for.

Cory Kennedy is based in LA and goes with a photographer who calls her his muse. She's a fashionista/club kid and a Paris Hilton wannabe. Total airhead very narcissistic. And on the wrong side of 20.

Anonymous said...

1256: True, Chris is a "civilian" and I know that everytime Jake is in NY, they stake out Chris' apt. because they know Jake stays there. I also wonder if that's the reason Chris left Baboo, the Resturaunt in Ny to work in another resturaunt in NY. Heard that some media types were calling there harrassing him. Sick.

PS: I googled Cory Kennedy: 17 year rich kid/High school dropout/model /party girl. Featured on Cobrasnake.com. The photographer friend knows that guy who runs that site. Cory also gets to meet a lot of celebs at clubs/parties using fake ID's. She then gossips about them in chat forums, she has a Myspace of course.

She and the photographer said that they laugh at the gay/bi rumors re: Jake becasue they say heis a horny MF and a "pimp with the girls". I never heard that before, LOL!! Whatever.

They also said that he acts diffrently when he is drinking and that he is in TX whoring around with girls from UT along with Matt, Lance and Matt's brother. How would they know unless he shipped Cory, his muse down there??

Anonymous said...

1:13AM Here. I ahve to add this:

After I googled Cory and clicked on some of the links, I made a quick call to my photographer friend and he "spilled the beans" regarding the gossip they have on Jake. I knew he was holding out. I thought about not possting it but hell, look whats posted about Jake elsewhere, besides it's all gossip. Who knows how true it is but I have never heard Jake described that way.

The Chris stuff I actually heard from people that work at Baboo.

Anonymous said...

Jake's whoring around after Mormon girls from Utah? [Picturing Jake as an illegal polygamist. Making even more ladies happy!]

Wondering what the tiny kernel of truth might be within that bit of gossip. If any. Maybe it's that Jake acts different when he's drunk. I'll bet that if he receives any encouragement & attention at all, he starts performing & gets pretty damn exhibitionistic.

Anonymous said...

1:27: UT= Univ. of Texas. And a big ewwwww to Cory and her sleazy BF, cobrasnake. Makes my skin crawl to think that "maybe" Jake is hanging around that crowd. I have one question though: Where the hell are that girls parents??

Anonymous said...

No, I think all of this is unlikely. Is it possible that we haven't heard anything of Jake and Cory Kennedy, considering she is a media whore like Paris Hilton? Someone is making things up.

Anonymous said...

1:47 I don't think that they were linking Cory with Jake "that way", she is apparently "dating" the guy that runs Cobrasnake.com a photographer.

They were supposedly passing on gossip they witnessed 1st hand at several parties and clubs they went to involving Jake and other girls. Cory gossips on live chat boards sometimes and she has dumped a few nuggets regarding her celebrity encounters.

Cory needs help and his site is borderline kiddie porn IMO. The gossip spewed by them is no worse than some of the other supposed gossip i have heard about Jake.Who cares about that underage party girl and her sleazy bf anyway?

I actually heard similar crap about a month ago, gut I didn't know the "source".

Anonymous said...

Thanks, 1:41, for your translation of the acronym "UT." Now I feel reassured. I'd much rather have Jake whoring around after girls from the University of Texas than girls from Utah. I mean, if a Mormon got hold of him, there'd be no more Frappuccinos for our Jakey boy.

Anonymous said...

I can believe that Jake likes the ladies. I saw a lot of pap pics on IHJ where he leaves parties, clubs whatever with different girls. I never believed Jake was this Toothy Tile guy. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't have a problem if he was, but I really doubt it.

Anonymous said...

And obviously, we should all believe what an attention whore/party girl and a bunch of anonymous posters on the internet say.

*eyeroll*

Grain of salt, people. Stop and think for a moment. If you wanted to, you could actually type into one of these "leave your comment" boxes that you had wild sex with Jake last night. And you know what? People would believe it and it would be reported on other sites.

ANYONE can say these things. Is there a chance that they're true? It's possible. There are certainly things we don't know about Jake. But anyone with internet access can make these claims. I'm also inclined to believe that if Jake was a little manwhore, we might have a shred of evidence beyond a high school dropout's MySpace.

*gets off of soapbox*

And that's all.

JadziaDragonRider said...

What ^^ s/he said.

Jake has given no indication ever that he is a manwhore. In fact he sometimes comes off awkward seeming around women if anything.

:disdainful eyeroll:

Anonymous said...

Yeah, but you know I do worry about him hanging around L. & M. Don't know them but honestly they just seem kinda sleazy to me. I hope Jake manages to keep his head on straight. There's fun and then there is just downright irresponsible / dangerous behavior. I think Jake is smarter than that but I do worry sometimes. (I'm not his Mom, I swear!! LOL!)

Anonymous said...

Furthermore, "liking the ladies" could mean anything from dancing with them in clubs (like anyone would do) to taking them home. None of us know, least of all someone who goes by "anonymous" and a teenaged whore who can type.

He does seem a bit awkward (and adorably so) around girls, but that probably goes away after a couple of drinks.

I hardly believe he's a saint (and it's certainly unfair to hold him to that standard), but I don't accept everything I'm told, either.

Really done now, I promise. The only other thing I have to say is that I feel bad for Chris. It would suck to have paparazzi interfering with your life when you didn't personally sign up for it.

Chris and Jake have been friends for years. Chris grew up on Martha's Vineyard and Jake and his family have been going there for a long time.

Jake isn't awkward or shy around girls. He can act awkward or shy around oldr women. They find it very endearing.

JadziaDragonRider said...

I don't know, his body language around Collen (The siting that happened nearly real time over at the DC) was very stiff. I'm not even really into blonds but she was very pretty. He didn't seem as ease with her as I've seen him when he's just chilling with dudes or by himself.

Anonymous said...

If he seemed stiff, it may have had something to do with the guy who was taking the picture. Seemed like he pulled awfully close, though. Even joked around and said he'd take the picture only if she was in it with him.Acording to DC Forum, she said he looked right into her eyes when he was talking to her and his face was about five inches from his. They were joking around about Saarsgard on SNL. She said she wanted to kiss him on the cheek, but was afraid she'd freak him out. Doesn't sound at all stiff to me.

Anonymous said...

Oh, really. Wasn't it just a little while ago, like yesterday when a lot of us were in favor of Jake "being bad"once in a while? I mean he's gorgeous, he's single and he's only 25.So once in a while he hangs out in clubs and tries/succeeds in picking up girls. He has a few drinks, he dances, he parties. Duh!!!! I don't think he wanders around with a book about Buddhism under his arm all the time.Or doing frappacinos and lunching al fresco with friends.
He's intelligent. He can be dorky and silly and he probably has his horny side, too.I think when he's in the right frame of mind, Jake's a party! And who would truly mind getting hemmed up in a dark corner in some club by Jake. Picture it. You with your back to the wall and him trapping you between his arms, leaning in with those baby blues trained on you like lasers. Gawd. I have take my meds.

3:57AM & 5:03AM: The lovely Ms. Kennedy never said she had sex with Jake. The 17 year old partygirl/model/internet pinup girl said on a gossip chat board that and I quote:" Jake is a horny MF" and "He is a pimp" with the girls. All this based on what she observed at a couple of parties she managed to attend using fake ID's with the help of her sleazy 21 year old "celeb" photographer BF who runs a site called cobrasnake.com. Don't know how much truth is there to it but it seemed so random and she didn't sound like a Jake fangirl

And stop worrying about Jake, he is a grown amn and I'm sure he takes the propper precaustions. He is fine in TX with Matt and Lance as well, just a little oput of his league with those two, but he is OK and having fun.

And as far as the flippent remark regarding Jake taking Chris to this years Oscars: He did. A picture surfaced last month on the DC Forum of Chris and Jake's parents. One of the male posters on Jakes forum there found it an posted it. I figured that the reason it necver made it to IHJ is becasue it belongs to IHJ. There is a video though in the media section there and you can see Chris.

I feel bad for Chris and Jake at this point. Thye have been friends for years and only now in the last few month the NY media has been harrasing them, that's the real reason he no longer works at Baboos anymore. Not surprised if he moved as well since the paps have taken to setting up camp in front of his apt. everytime Jake is in NY.

PS: Squallcloud: Jake awkward around girls?? Dream on.

Anonymous said...

3:58: The story floating around is that he left that particular resturaunt, he didn't "loose" his job. He got fed up with the constant intrusion not only from the paps but from fans calling when they knew Jake was in NY to find out when Chris was working figuring Jake would stop by more than once to see him. Jake is very protective of Chris and he was pissed off, may have suggested that Chris leave.

The paps camped outside Chris' apt. is a constant as well and intrusion on Jake's and Chris' privacy. When Jake is in NY he just wants to be left alone to hang out with Maggie, Peter, Chris and the rest of his friends and family w/o them being harrassed. Maggie and Peter are different because they are actors.

During the last visit to NY by Jake the paps finally gave up and packed up and moved away from Chris' apt. One was heard to say that "They must have went back to MV". How the hell did they know that? This is from a fan of Peters that lives in the W. Village.

There's absolutely no way we have to know if Chris lost his job bcz of paps. That's a rumor, and frankly one I've not heard before it was floated here. There has been some talk about Mario opening a restuarant in LA. There're always rumors of Mario opening/partnering, or supporting other restaurants in NYC. Chris may be on leave from Babbo's or he maybe doing other things and none of them have anything to do with Jake. Then again, maybe he and Jake are planning on opening up a restaurant. It's all rumors and speculation...about a guy who has done nothing more than be best friends with a celebrity. In fact, a whole family of celebrities.

4:27 again. While there may be rumors and speculation among the staff at Babbo's about Chris leavin, if in fact he's permanently severed his relationship there, I seriously doubt that Mario minds paps hanging around outside. And phonecalls into the very famous restaurant as a result of Mario's celebrity or anyone else's, can be dispensed with the way you deal with telemarketers. Mario LOVES publicity. He courts it. He sees himself as larger than life....and he is!!!LOLOL!!!!

guys, don’t take this the wrong way, cuz i’m all about increasing jw’s popularity with all jake fans and i love seeing new posters, but the sudden spike in anon postings are really confusing to follow. friendly suggestion (haha, didn’t mean to take an alias) for those who want to take on an alias and stick with it?

re: one of the anon’s being called the chris info troll… i don’t wanna assume anyone’s a “troll” but i’m always skeptical when anon posters provide all this inside info about chris and jake’s relationship without any sourcing and backing… and all the while repeatedly misspelling babbo’s . we all read about chris’ mom cuz jake spoke of it, but the rest of the stuff on why he left babbo’s, how jake and chris are dealing with the paps, isn’t that all speculation? who really knows? where are these stories floating around coming from anyway? sorry, not meaning discredit anyone, just had to say this.

4:27: He didn't loose his job due to the paps, he left because he got tired of the media calling there and fans asking for him and asking about Jake. It got embarrassing. He is working at another resturaunt now in NY. He may be best friends with Jake and the Gyllenhaals but the recent spotlight and intrusion was too much.

Smurfette, you are right to be cautious. This poster's technique is to use publicly available facts and a confidential manner to infer he/she is an insider when he/she is actually as clueless as the rest of us. This is where the ironic 'info troll' moniker came from.

Gossip, gossip. It's all BS imo.

^^ Yes but that won't stop them going on about for hours they love lurid gossip.

My bad. You're right Anon 5:45. Maybe he was stiff because he knew that the pic woudl get out and a new round of rumors would start.

"Jake Is Seen Canoodling With Unidentified Gal Pal"

For the record, I'm sure the boy gets laid as often as his little heart desires, never meant to come off disaproving of him getting a little action.

Also, gotta repeat it's much easier when everyon adopts a moniker and calls it a day. I'm sure some of these anon "conversations" are one person just answering themselves but for those who contribute here often, please identify yourself. Only need to pick the other button and make up a name. I did that for a long time before Brit tempted me with my cleavag-y new avatar. :)

7:40: Jake doesn't hit on fans, he isn't that tacky. The 1st thing he does when he zeros in on a girl is ask her age, which most celebs wouldn't bother asking.

cina said...

And how would you know that?

Anonymous said...

You're absolutely right. Jake doesn't hit on fans...he doesn't have to!!!!LOL!!!

Oh, plz!!! Look there are lots of clubs in LA and NYC.And Austin, Texas and Chicago, and Calgary and London, etc. Some are trendy. Some are places where celebrities are known to drop in. When girls or boys go to these clubs, they often go to meet new people. Sometimes these new people are famous. Sometimes they aren't.Shit happens.

I still believe that it's impossible for us to know the truth about Jake's sex life, and frankly, it's not information that his fans are entitled to.

Even IF all of the things that the partygirl-attention whore kid posts are true, it doesn't put Jake on the level of say, Paris Hilton. I've never heard anything but glowing reviews of his work ethic and manners, he appears to have a strong relationship with his family and keeps his friends for longer than five minutes. That's enough to make me respect him. Whatever he does with whoever is so lucky is his business.

somehow the discussion 's gotten a bit vague. let me ask: you're actually quarelling over wether Jake sleep with girls met in clubs?!!! geesh... how should anybody know that and why should anybody care. it's getting insane. let's focus on smth more to the point: Jake's beautiful long tanned toes. now they give me entirely more pleasant thinkg to moon over...

JakesJules I know... that time thing sucks!! im in brisbane so im with ya honey!
Personally getting back on topic i think its great that Austin and Jake are hanging out again. Good on em i say! :)

*muses*

I wonder if he self manicures or goes to someone. I'm such an anti-feet person. Feet are disgusting I don't care how hot the bod they are attached to but he really does have nicely shaped feet and toes.

britpopbaby said...

I don't mind feet but I fucking hate toe socks. If I ever saw Jake it toe socks that would be the end for me.

JadziaDragonRider said...

Wow, that's an odd place to draw a line, brit. lol For the record, Jake could dress like Erkle and I'd still wanna lick every inch of him ... sans feet. We talked about that.

Not that I wanna rush the brilliance of the Power of Three but aren't you afraid the blog will implode under the weight of all these messages without some new bit of funny for us to focus on?

*pats herself on the back for being so damn smooth*

urgh.Horibble hair style Jake.Let it grow baby.It suits you better and it's beautiful like you.

Oh please.. anyone making up Cory + Jake rumors must know Cory or IS Cory to keep her name out there. There is no grain of truth to it. Also, she isn't even a blip on his radar. The girl isn't anyone is that "scene." Plus the cobrsnake photographer dumped her so... she is probably hanging on to Marvin Scott's coattails 15...14...13....12...
