LaineyGossip is reporting that Taylor Swift and Jake Gyllenhaal were on a date on Saturday night. Taylor is apparently friends with Emma Stone, and Taylor was backstage for Emma’s SNL hosting gig… and Jake was there too. WITH SWIFTY. Oh… Jake. First of all, Swifty is way too young for you. She’s 20 years old and you’re 29 – not illegal or anything, just icky and sketchy, the same way Swifty and John Mayer were icky and sketchy. Second of all, she sings about ponies and middle school. Third of all, she boned John Mayer. Do you want to get with that? Really? I hope you like hearing songs about how you’re a big meanie, Jake.

Exclusive — Taylor Swift and Emma Stone are tight. Emma Stone hosted SNL. Taylor Swift was backstage. Guess who was with her? Multiple sources tell me exclusively that Jake Gyllenhaal was her date that night. Yes, HER DATE. She was totally into him, there were close the whole time, and awkwardly cute-flirting, some undercover handholding, and I’ve been told several times, “it was more than just friends”.

As you can imagine, she was beyond delirious. I’m told she looked like she was dreaming while she was there. And they left together. And they’ve been seen all around New York together – brunch, shopping, what people do when they start dating.

Yes. Taylor Swift and Jake Gyllenhaal are dating. Early days, but they’re dating.

Best part – John Mayer is in NYC too. And she’s rubbing that sh-t right up in his face, just as her new album is dropping too. Love this so much.

[From LaineyGossip]

I do not love it. It makes me think less of Jake. Plus, can he ever date a brunette? Would it kill him to go for a girl who is something other than a blonde? And what do they have to talk about? Ugh. This pisses me off.

Oh, and I was writing this up, Life & Style confirmed Lainey’s report – according to the Scene Queens’ sources, Swifty “has a new man in her life: 29-year-old actor Jake Gyllenhaal, Life & Style’s Scene Queens can report exclusively. The two were spotted looking cozy in Brooklyn, N.Y., yesterday.” An eyewitness tells L&S: “Taylor and Jake were walking around Park Slope holding hands… They looked like a couple!” UGH.

Jake Gyllenhaal’s big, bushy beard: totally adorable or not so sexy?

These are new photos of Jake Gyllenhaal promoting his new film, Love and Other Drugs, at the New York Film Festival over the weekend. He has a beard! And no, I’m not talking about a new girlfriend, apologies to Adam Levine. I don’t even know who Jake is dating these days – it was that Isabel Lucas chick, but I haven’t heard anything about them in a while, and Jake seems to be doing an undercover player thing. Question: Doesn’t Jake seem like the kind of guy who would find his future wife on a blind date? Right?

Anyway, his beard. It’s really bushy. I’ve seen Jake with facial hair before, but never this mountain-man kind of look. Do you like it? Or do you think that with his pretty face, he just needs to shave? I’m not hating on the beard, honestly. It makes Jake look more like a scruffy Jude Law, which is never a bad thing. It also makes him older, which he might be going for. F-ck, I love a beard, I really do. I don’t think I’ve ever been hotter for Jake than right now.

Jake Gyllenhaal is not gay, says his BFF, Maroon 5′s Adam Levine

wenn5509097

What’s the general opinion on Maroon 5’s front-man Adam Levine? My opinion: I think he’s a douche. A douche with a great voice, but a douche none the less. I’ve just seen one too many interviews where he just seemed so full of himself and like he thinks he’s God’s gift to music and women and the world. If it took it down a notch, he might actually be charming. Anyway, Adam Levine is interviewed in the new Out Magazine (full piece here), and Adam talks candidly about “one of his oldest friends,” Jake Gyllenhaal. Yeah… they’re friends. What the hell? Anyway, Adam took it upon himself to defend his oldest friend’s heterosexuality:

Out Magazine: You’ve also gotten a lot of attention for hanging out with Jake Gyllenhaal.
Levine: Will everyone stop thinking that dude is gay? Seriously guys. How immature is it of the media to perceive this guy — it has to be because of Brokeback, right? I’ve known this dude forever. He’s one of my oldest friends, and it’s very weird that they have this — it’s very immature and infantile the way they treat his whole situation. If him hanging out with his bros means he’s gay, it’s like further perpetuating that weird homophobia that exists in our culture, which is just stupid. So, yeah, he’s my buddy. I f-ckin’ love the guy.

[From Out Magazine]

Sure. Okay…? That passage literally came out of nowhere. Yes, he was asked about Jake, but he was not asked about Jake’s sexuality. It would be like, “Hey do you read Celebitchy?” and I would reply, “Yes, Celebitchy is my friend, one of my closest friends and I can’t believe everyone says she’s GAY. Celebitchy and GAY. She is so not GAY GAY GAY.” Does the douche protest too much? Eh. I don’t think Jake is gay, as I’ve said before. I think he’s straight and I think he’s totally f-cking vanilla.

But you know who Levine reminds me of in this interview? John Mayer. Seriously. And I know Mayer and Maroon 5 went on tour together and Mayer and Levine have some kind of beef and they both dated Jessica Simpson (true story), but they are two peas in a pod, birds of a feather, etc. Here are some other Mayer-esque gems:

So many of the articles I read while doing research on you mentioned how attractive you are. But some of the articles argued that your good looks might be doing the band a disservice…
Yeah.

When asked if he considers himself a sex symbol:
“I don’t know. It’s weird. I once said in an article, I think, if we were overweight, middle-aged dudes, we ‘d be taken very seriously, and our music would be considered ironic and cool and we’d be hipsters. Same music, different look. And it’s probably true. Maybe it has hurt a little, but this is also assuming that I find myself attractive, which is funny, but the fact that I’ve been considered that is very flattering but also maybe somewhat detrimental to what I’m trying to do. But also really helpful, so it’s a double-edged sword. It’s great. It’s propelled me to a place that I enjoy, mostly, so I’m not mad at that. I’ve also been perceived as a womanizing whoremonger or whatever, some sort of weird dude – Lothario is a word I’ve heard a couple of times — and that’s just weird. I’m young, successful. I’ve been having fun and hooking up with girls. It’s like, Leave me alone. What, do you not want me to do that? So I’m cool with all of it. Yeah, sometimes it sucks because I would like to be – we are taken seriously, that’s another thing. Sometimes I am hypersensitive to the fact that we’re not taken seriously, but I don’t realize, Well, wait a minute. We’ve won awards that are really prestigious and Grammys and all this stuff. What am I complaining about? I’ve got all that sh-t too. It’s kind of awesome. I’m really stoked, to be honest.

On reading his own press:
No. My press always gets regurgitated to me at some point and I’m like, Ugh, this is so silly. So, yeah, God bless ‘em.

On Lady Gaga:
Gaga is the perfect example because people are definitely saying things like, “changed the face of music” and “avant-garde.” And I love what she does. I love the fact that she exists. It’s almost like, finally there’s a pop star who brings a little bit more weight to it. She’s weird. She’s a weird chick. She does weird sh-t. She dresses weird. Her music is slightly off. That’s awesome. I think that’s great for pop music because it’s been so safe up to this point, and I like that she’s nude all the time and weird and awesome and cool. Madonna was that way too. I know she gets that comparison a lot, but it’s true. She was pushing the envelope back in the day. She was doing the same thing that Gaga’s doing to a large extent. She has her own spin on it. That’s fantastic. I love subverting the new generation of pop music and all these really safe Disney kids. But no, I’m not going to try to sound like that because that would be weird. That would be even weirder than Lady Gaga herself if we just all of a sudden got really strange — because we’re not, that’s just not who we are. But she’s great, and there are very few things these days that are truly innovative and forward-thinking or at least different. Goddamn, everything’s just so generic. I like things that shake shit up.

[From Out Magazine]

Do you see? He loves the sound of his own voice and he thinks he’s brilliant. Granted, he’s probably smarter than the average rock star. And yes, he is good-looking. But in his own mind, he’s a God amongst men. And he’s just not.

Anne Hathaway & Jake Gyllenhaal’s on-screen chemistry: icky or hot?

love

Above is the new poster for Love and Other Drugs, the film that will be coming out shortly, this fall sometime. Jake Gyllenhaal plays a pharmaceutical rep/salesman who ends up promoting the best-selling drug in the world: Viagra. Anne Hathaway plays the girl Jake meets and falls for, even though she’s intense and his career is taking off and he could bone every nurse he wanted. The trailer came out last month, and I watched it, expecting to hate it. I didn’t. And now I’m ashamed:

Okay, here’s my question: does anyone else remember the stories about Jake and Anne hating each other? They previously worked on Brokeback Mountain together, and I have strong memories of Jake insinuating that he thought Anne was a major a–hole. Am I hallucinating? If they did (do) hate each other, then I guess their acting is a lot better than you would think – they do seem to have some kind of chemistry together, and it’s good to see them both in these kinds of roles. Will this just be another interchangeable rom-com? Eh. There is something icky about it though – they both trying to seem so wholesome.

Jake Gyllenhaal & Isabel Lucas get raunchy in a Montreal club

Actor Gyllenhaal speaks in a television interview while promoting his new movie Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time in Toronto

Jake Gyllenhaal might like to party, flirt, dance and generally be adorable with what seemed to be a series of Russian hookers, but his heart still belongs to Isabel Lucas, his rumored girlfriend of about two months or so. I hadn’t heard anything about them for a while, so I had begun wondering if perhaps the Jake-Isabel thing was just a quick rebound. Not so, according to Mike Walker’s gossip column in the Enquirer. According to his sources, they are very much hot and heavy:

Jake Gyllenhaal finally stopped boo-hooing over his breakup with Reese Witherspoon after mega-gorgeous Aussie actress Isabel Lucas turned him every which way but loose during a wild night at Montreal’s GoGo Lounge – then climaxes her performance with a hot ‘n’ sweaty Down Under The Table tour!

Said my witness: “Talk about a close encounter of the hottest kind – Jake and Isabel were all over each other! And she was definitely the aggressor. Jake actually looked a little uneasy when Isabel did a mock lap dance – then suddenly shoved him off his chair and under their table, obviously wanting a little privacy while she worked her magic.”

Egged on by cheering patrons, Isabel kept things moving under the table until Jake – suddenly embarrassed at being the club’s hottest attraction – wriggled out of her clutches and sat down with her again.

Said the source: “They cooled for a bit, but you could see the heat rising. After a while, Jake helped Isabel to her feet and they left, looking like they needed a little more privacy than their table could provide.”

[From Mike Walker’s column, The National Enquirer, print edition]

At one point I thought “Jeez, Jake is such a tight-ass.” But then I thought about it, and I would probably be uncomfortable too if something similar happened. Honestly, I’ve made out (and other stuff) in dank bars, but that was when I was a kid. Jake and I are about the same age – and when you get to a certain age, doing that sh-t in bars or clubs is just gross and cheesy. Still, it wouldn’t hurt Jake to loosen up a little – he probably wasn’t expecting Isabel and The Club Hand-Job. He’s used to Reese and The Lights Out Before You Touch Me.

Jake Gyllenhaal is a pretty solid flirt & a great dancer
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time receives Moscow premiere

I’m sorry I didn’t get to this lovely Jake Gyllenhaal video before (below), because it is adorable. It’s Jake, promoting The Prince of Persia in Russia, and having a lot of fun of with Russian chicas. This totally looks like blackmarket spy footage, which makes me think that at least one of the girls Jake was partying with was a hooker, but nothing dirty happens. The boy just loves to dance and sing along to Marvin Gaye. Ain’t nothing wrong with that:

Adorable, right? But isn’t he dating Isabel Lucas? Maybe that was just a fling, because he’s not really acting like a dude with a girlfriend. Then again, he’s not making out with any of these girls… but he is flirting his ass off. I didn’t know he had it in him.

Meanwhile, Jake gave an extensive interview to the Philippines’ newspaper The Inquirer, and there are some really great quotes from the piece. The full article is here, and here are some highlights:

On interviews: “I love my work and care about it. But I’m beginning to have a great sense of humor about it because I just don’t feel like there’s any need to take it all that seriously.”

On shaping up for the role: “It was a really long, arduous process. It was total devotion. It was so hard to get paid to exercise. There’s nothing harder. First, I grew the hair which was, again, really hard. It tried my patience. It’s painful to grow out your hair. It was really about two simple things: Shampooing and then conditioning. Not the two-in-one kind. You start with the shampoo which really works out the biceps. If you rub vigorously, then the triceps are worked out with conditioning. A lot more bathing involved, actually. Three to four hours in the shower of vigorously rubbing all over defines the abs and pectoral muscles. Eventually, you just become the Prince of Persia. Also, drinking bath water is always a nice way of keeping yourself hydrated while you’re bathing and training to get the Prince of Persia physique.”

On the accent: “From the very beginning, Mike Newell would say to me, ‘You know my dear boy, you should just speak in the accent. Do not be afraid. Just talk to all the actors and enjoy yourself.’ I was like, ‘Oh Jesus.’ I was so nervous. I was working on the accent for about three months with a dialect coach because I knew how much scrutiny I would get. I had been watching ‘Bridget Jones’s Diary’ over and over again. And by the way, Bridget Jones was a main influence in my training regimen. I was going after that physique. My accent was really a mixture of Gwyneth Paltrow in ‘Sliding Doors’ and Renee Zellweger in ‘Bridget Jones’s Diary.’ Gwyneth in ‘Sliding’…influenced the hair, too.”

Filming in the sand: “It’s so strange. Like I read the script and I’m like, ‘Yeah, I’ll do it.’ And then I show up in the desert and I am like, ‘How the hell did I not know that we were shooting in the desert for four months?’ I’m pretty familiar with sand – it’s in my DNA now. If I have children one day, they will be born made of sand… Sand gets in everywhere, like my mother used to say. I had a lot of sand in my schlitz.”

Filming in Morocco: “People talk about how hot it is in the desert. We shot in the desert in Morocco which is beautiful. If the audience responded to this movie and we have to do another one, I would gladly do it. I just thought this seems like great fun. It was really that simple.” Then he quipped, “You’re like, ‘Aha, I bet. You liar.’ But no.”

[From The Inquirer]

I totally have doubts whether The Prince of Persia will end up being a hit movie. Can Jake Gyllenhaal convincingly pull off the cartoon-ish action hero? Eh. He seems more suited for the anti-hero, the sympathetic dramatic lead, or even a comedic lead. We’ll see how audiences respond to Jake in a skirt-and-sandals, sand-filled action film.

Jake Gyllenhaal: growing out my hair was “almost harder” than acting

prince_of_persia_30_wenn2837335

Last night was the big London premiere of The Prince of Persia, so Jake Gyllenhaal had to spend his Mother’s Day abroad. Since he’s so close to his parents, I’d imagine that killed him a little. Anyway, Jake looked very nice and not too orange, as opposed to his recent tan-tastic appearance on GQ. The British girls were all over him, too, especially his British costar Gemma Arterton. Arterton was wearing a big, beautiful ball gown that I like, but I would like better for an awards ceremony rather than a premiere. Still, pretty.

prince_of_persia_37_wenn2837352

Jake gave a bunch of self-deprecating statements on the red carpet, so read into these what you will. Regarding his bulked-up body, Jake said: “My shoulders got so big that sometimes I couldn’t reach to grab things.” Regarding his shoulder-length hair for the film - which wasn’t a wig or a weave – Jake said: “It took me six months to grow it, which was the hardest part of it all. It was harder to grow the hair than do the accent or to swordfight. It’s almost harder than acting! It was shampoo and conditioner – not a two-in-one – because the physique was developed by vigorous scrubbing and rubbing of the scalp with shampoo. That really worked the bicep area and if you really focus on the core while you are doing it, your abs get totally ripped up.”

Gemma Arterton, meanwhile, outed Jake as a man afraid of ostriches, which are in the film: “Jake is scared of ostriches. He ran away and the look on his face is not acting, it’s real!

By the way, I saw this dude’s photo at the premiere, and I just had to put it up. His name is David Gandy and isn’t he just the prettiest thing you’ve ever seen? According to Wikipedia, he’s a British model, not an actor. Sigh…

Jake Gyllenhaal’s man-tanned GQ cover, talks about Heath Ledger

gq-may-jake-gylle-medium

When CB and I first saw the thumbnail of Jake Gyllenhaal’s May GQ cover, we were sort of overcome by how orange he looked. Now that we’ve seen the cover a bit closer, he only looks severely man-tanned, but not as orange as from a distance. Anyway, Jake is gearing up to promote the hell out of The Prince of Persia, the film in which he has a distractingly bad English (?) accent. The full interview hasn’t come online, but here are some highlights:

Jake Gyllenhaal has already proven his versatility by starring in films such as Brokeback Mountain and Jarhead. Now he stars in the upcoming Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, taking on his first action role and solidifying his status as a superstar. In an interview with GQ correspondent Chris Heath, Gyllenhaal opens up about his relationship with Heath Ledger, his parents’ recent divorce (“I think it takes a lot of courage for my parents to make the decision that they made”), and his love for his family. As for his own life, Gyllenhaal explains, “I’m trying not to keep things so neat. I think I’m realizing my strengths and my faults. I think I’m trying to see what is me…and what is not me.”

Jake Gyllenhaal on working with Heath Ledger: “He was very sensitive. He didn’t always have a sense of performance in his everyday life. He knew who he was. I think actors very often, they know how to present something, and that’s part of their job. I think he was just really sensitive. We often used to do a lot of things together, because people were very interested in him and I think we felt safe together.”

…on how Ledger’s death affected him:“Even when we did Brokeback and stuff, it was like my work was the only thing that mattered to me. It was like I could only understand or define myself through doing that. Life, I didn’t totally understand. And I think I was afraid of life. And I had success in my work, enough success that you could keep going back there. But after that happened…I think I recognized that it was work. And I recognized that this is for real.”

[From GQ Magazine]

Poor Jake. He still gets asked constantly about Heath, which is so weird to me. I get that they were friends and Jake was devastated and heartbroken, but it’s not like Jake doesn’t have a ton of other sh-t going on, you know? He’s made a ton of movies, he’s one of the best actors of his generation, he dates high-profile celebrity women… you’d think interviewers would stop bringing up Heath. Or Jake would find a better way to answer those questions without dragging Heath’s death into every interview.

Anyway… here are a few more photos from the shoot. I think the concept behind it was “dude with a man-tan hangs out in New York”. Fascinating.

Jake Gyllenhaal is dating Isabel Lucas, not Rachel McAdams
82nd Annual Academy Awards - Arrivals

After this year’s Oscars, some of us began to think that Jake Gyllenhaal’s new girlfriend should be Rachel McAdams. They were co-presenters at the Oscars, and Oprah even scored a joint interview with them where they just seemed… I don’t know, flirty and sweet and perfect for each other. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like that’s happening. LaineyGossip is reporting exclusively (through her extensive sources and eyewitnesses spread out around Canada, I think) that Jake is dating his actress Isabel Lucas, who was the chick best known as “Adrian Grenier’s girlfriend” and “the chick who was in Shia LaBeouf’s truck when he got into an accident”. Here’s more:

The McJakey campaign was born after Rachel McAdams and Jake Gyllenhaal presented together at the Oscars. Unfortunately there will be no McJakey. Not yet. Because it looks like Jakey is tied up with someone else.

Jake is currently shooting a movie in Montreal called Source Code. Last night he was spotted at Garde Manger and I’m told exclusively that he was “all cuddled up” with Isabel Lucas. She’s the actress from Transformers 2. The one who was with Shia LaBeouf on the night he f-cked up his hand in that accident even though she was supposedly dating Adrian Grenier at the time. She is gorgeous.

Jakey was wearing a white shirt over jeans, apparently even hotter in real life. When he wasn’t wrapped around her, he was trying to get Isabel to dance with him. She seemed shy. And he didn’t seem to be missing Reese at all. Or, for that matter, Rachel.

Interestingly and awkwardly enough, Kirsten Dunst, who is also in Montreal working on a different movie, was also there with a girlfriend sitting on the opposite side of the venue. She spent a lot of time on the phone in the bathroom.

[From LaineyGossip]

Does this make sense? To me, sure. I’ll buy it. Jake’s a single dude, and he can wrap himself around whoever he wants, and I suspect that this Isabel girl is his type. Now, I know a lot of you think Jake Gyllenhaal is gay. I get it, I really do. There was a time when he beeped on my gaydar – which was also the time when I thought he was much too impossibly vanilla to be of any interest. But time passes and you reevaluate your judgments, and now I’m pretty sure Jake is straight. I also think he’s got an interesting type, and one that should be a welcome relief after witnessing too many douches whose “type” is girls like Bombshell McGee or Peaches Geldof. I think Jake’s type is along these lines: petite, blonde or very fair coloring, and conventionally “nice”. Like, he’s got a thing for really “nice girls” – the kind moms love. Jake thought Kirsten Dunst was a “nice girl” but she wasn’t. He thought Reese was a “nice girl” – which she is, but she still didn’t want to marry him. And now he’s moved on to his new nice girl. Good for him.

Here are some photos of Isabel… she really is very pretty, but that hair! Jesus, girl. Get yourself some VO5 hot oil:

Blogger alleges that Jake Gyllenhaal shoved a girl
82ND ACADEMY AWARDS, RED CARPET ARRIVALS

Over the weekend, there was a rumor floating around that Jake Gyllenhaal beat up a girl. The whole story originated at Drunken Stepfather (NSFW site), where one of their bloggers claimed that he (the blogger is a dude) went up to Jake and asked, “Aren’t you the guy who kissed Heath Ledger?” To which Jake allegedly went crazy, and ordered security to take away the blogger dude. The blogger went on to allege that Jake “shoved” one of the girls the blogger was with. Of course, Drunken Stepfather then changed both the blogger’s words (to “Hey isn’t that the guy who killed Heath Ledger?”) and the name of the original post (from “Jake Gyllenhaal is a F-ggot of the day” to “Jake Gyllenhaal Pushes Girls Around of the Day”). E! News sums up the situation:

Did Jake Gyllenhaal roughhouse with a woman this weekend?

No, we don’t mean in the fun way, babes. There’s a report going around that the Prince of Persia star got into a little altercation up in Montreal over the weekend.

And we’re here to sort things out for you…

The alleged incident supposedly went down Saturday night at restaurant Garde-Manger.
Apparently Gyllenhaal was dancing on the bench of his table with a group of pals, ticking off a blogger from DrunkenStepfather a few feet away who found the show to be quite egocentric.

Said blogger then went up to Jake’s table, turned to a girl there and goes (according the blogger himself): “Hey isn’t that the guy who kissed Heath Ledger?”

Gyllenhaal apparently got in the guys face, told him to f–ck off and got the dude escorted out of the club. Only problem is in this he-said, he-said tale is that the blogger also claims his female guest was pushed about 10 times by Gyllenhaal before J.G.’s crew pulled him away.

Gyllenhaal’s rep claims blogger’s story is “libelous” and informs us his lawyers are taking “immediate action.”

And for more info on what really went down, here’s what we’ve learned:

Jake was definitely at the restaurant Saturday night (he’s a regular there) as was the blogger. Main discrepancy here? We’re told by sources who were present that the blogger in question said, “Hey isn’t that the guy who killed Heath Ledger?” prompting Jake to yell to the bouncers “get these guys out of my face.”

The instigator and his crew were then thrown out.

We originally read this blog post yesterday, where the site definitely had “killed” not “kissed” up until it was later changed. The post actually backs up this supposed kill claim by ranting in the item that if Jake was Ledger’s friend, he probably would have been there for him in his low point.

Seriously can’t say we blame Gyllenhaal’s heated reaction. “Isn’t that the guy who killed Heath Ledger?” Not a funny joke, dude. We wish punches were thrown.

As for this girl who was supposedly caught in the crossfire? Onlookers tell us “there were a bunch of girls” there but “no one was shoved or hurt.”

Jake is currently in Montreal filming Source Code, which won’t be affected by this nonincident. We hear filming has been going “great” up there before this.

Currently, Drunken Stepfather still has the story up, and they added a new one basically claiming to stand by the story, and publishing the letter sent by Jake’s lawyer, which in a nut shell claims: “the story is entirely false. Specific false and defamatory statements in your story include, without limitation, the claims that he was “making out” with a girl in the restaurant, that he threatened you, and, most damaging of all, that he pushed the girl who was with you into a table at least ten times before his crew held him back and that he “pretty much hit a girl.” As you know, none of this is true, and there was no physical contact between Mr. Gyllenhaal and the girl in question – nothing that could under any interpretation be described as hitting her or shoving her. There is absolutely no excuse for this kind of irresponsible journalism.” DS responds:

“I know what happened. I know what I saw. I don’t really care whether his profession Lawyers, managers, Publicists and other keepers say it didn’t….

I wasn’t the drunk one dancing on bars like a fool. I saw what I saw. I witnessed what I witnessed and telling my story is not defamation of character, it is free press, I am allowed to say what I saw as a first hand account of the events that took place if I was in fact there…I love that they are telling me what I saw, or at least trying to tell me what I saw because rich and powerful people can create my reality if it involves their client…If he doesn’t want to be called someone who shoves girls…he shouldn’t shove girls….especially since he only lost his mind after I made a comment to a person he was with, not even directly to him…

What I can tell you is that when he got in my face I thought it was a joke…but when he hurt and scared the girl I was with for telling him to calm down and even made her cry…it was no longer that funny…

I hate how celebrities think they are above the law, that they can do what they “erase” events I witnessed, that they try to destroy the little credibility I have while using scare tactics cuz I don’t come from a rich Hollywood family…”

Ugh. I don’t really know who to believe, especially since DS’s story changed to reflect the kissing/killing problem. I believe Jake would get angry if someone said something to him about “killing Heath Ledger”. I believe that Jake would try to get that guy thrown out. I believe that Jake would probably try to get the guy’s friends thrown out too. BUT… shoving a girl? Eh. I just doubt it. Of course, I also think DS is generally horribly offensive, so maybe I’m just one of those sensitive types!
