Blind Item #5
This foreign born B+ list mostly movie actress who has moved over to some television for a bit took a pass on being the beard for this A list mostly movie actor. She likes him fine but wants a real relationship. Soo, the actor moved back to his television actress standby who loves the publicity.

ReplyDeleteZOMG Toothy Tile! Hell-A!
ReplyDeleteI actually used to feel sorry for Toothy. But everyone has to put on big boy pants someday.
ruth wilson passed on bearding jake gyllenhal so rachel mcadams was the backup. I' was thinking back to when taylor swift bearded for jake for pap photos....I wonder if these beards are great fodder for her for making up songs (LITERALLY making up the source material!)...that adds a whole new manipulative element! not thats new to any part of the entertainment industry. anyway, yea, RUTH//JAKE/RACHEL.
ReplyDeleteWas Jake's relationship with Kirsten (don't know how to spell it) real?
ReplyDeleteAnd isn't herself Rush gay? Guess that works out for everyone.
ReplyDelete* Ruth herself
ReplyDeleteThese blinds prove to be such bs. Literally any actress he works with can be accused of being a beard, yet no blind items ever point out the (female) socialites he spends time with? Because they aren't known to the public? And twitter has changed the game of blinds, with actual people sighting what he gets up to (it's straight hookups.) accusing Wilson is just unkind:how are they supposed to not remain friends after intense 4-month collaboration? Is it bearding to just catch plays together? Why'd something so simple like McAdams giving him an election during two weeks of work on set, leading him to thirsting her so obviously (

ReplyDelete"big boy pants" as in he freely makes homoerotic jokes ("anything with big hands i like" on Fallon) AND heterosexual come-ons (just watch his interaction with Karla Martinez?) he IS a performer who caters to audiences both straight and gay, but people familiar with his acting styles should know which is deliberate vs. spontaneous.
ReplyDeleteWatch the nuances between Jake G/McAdams at the SAG Q&A. That tells you more than these "blinds" which fit a confirmation bias, and leave out all the anomaly in his life a stan knows but doesn't fit a neat, B&W story CDAN sells. Twitter has also changed the game, of sightings by actual people about what he gets up to (straight hookups, not all are flattering so there's no contrivance there.) These blinds turn into a witch-hunt of Bi-erasure (at least), as if sexuality can't be more complex and messy, instead of simplistic "hide with beards". It reduces entirely plausible behavior of people who have intensely busy schedule and career, into nothing but "I live to beard, find my next beard, others who look to beard"...it's absolutely silly. Because these actors have their hands full enough worrying about getting good reviews, word of mouth, doing hundreds of junket interviews...all of which center on their work, not sex life (at least not in the way CDAN & co. have trained gossip-hounds: Measure up to what's "normal" for heterosexuals OUTSIDE the biz, or be accused of "100% gay beyond reasonable doubt". )
ReplyDelete"big boy pants" is more homophobic than you realize. IF he has something to come out of, you essentially taunt someone for risking job opportunities like attracting foreign investors and buyers. (Would you tell a neighbor in the closet, to "put on big boy pants" and "come out" - even if his workplace is "hostile" to the promotion he might get eventually?) IF he has nothing much to come out of (i.e. he saw the opportunities before him - social, personal, and especially professional - and took them, IN THE ENVIRONMENT THAT IS HOLLYWOOD where many power-players can be "persuasive", & don't forget he described his 20s as "split" and confused friends with work), then you're "closet-shaming" by disallowing people's noncriminal lives and past as they wish - while pretending to be some PFLAG ally (who'd never out anyone who doesn't feel "safe" to do so.)
ReplyDeleteAnd all this is based on stupid conjecture: by May '15, Jake G was in LA doing pre-cannes press for Southpaw. Meeting up with McAdams while both are in same area, is bearding - but McAdams hanging out with her TV costars isn't? This "blind" came ou the same day as tabloid item about "kissing" Wilson was released - but very few CDAN readers are aware it was (unlike teen-captured photo of JG/Wilson on vacation in Mexico right after the play) in reaction to French anticipation about him and Xavier Dolan: They were going to spend 9 days together on Cannes jury, after Dolan very explicitly told French magazine about his lust for Jake G, that was then blown up by tabloid. The "kiss" item was at least classier than directly addressing the INTERNATIONAL PR (as everything connected to Cannes is!), with a "hell naw!"
Then we can call Calvin Harris gay? Long-time fans know JG/Swift dated longer than before the pap photos surfaced. They even met each other's families - somehow those pix have totally different vibe than the famous pap pix - after which came out, he immediately left her? Clearly something about this "get papped on the regular" didn't sit well with him! And why was he so rude to Cara D. on Graham Norton this year? Would a simple bearding arrangement result in such animosity, as if he had been crossed by a series of events?
ReplyDeleteThen why not say all his high school, college girlfriends, Jenny Lewis etc, were all "fake"? Why stop at only "famous" names we "know" like it's the "whole" history of a person? Isn't this the whole point, to continuously call a man incapable of having "real" relationships with women, like some impotence we're supposed to be fascinated by ("village wives telling each other: Did you know he has penile dysfunction!") -- than when he actually has been observed to "get hard" for women?
