Jake In Drag??

[newyearsday]

Oh, the good old PT. Thanks Jane! I wish to god I had the 2 or three hours a day I'd need to really do it justice, or even 30 minutes! As it is, just keeping up with three or four normal threads is all I can handle.

But thanks for pointing that out about the "No problem, and here I am" bit, Barbara (it is Barbara right?).

And HELLO Sarah! Yes, I said too that Jake blew me away with his commitment to the song and performance.

And, I don't think it was lipsynched. There was too much physicality in his body to get those notes out the way he did, and after the total shitstorm that Ashlee Simpson went through a couple of years ago when she lipsynched during her band's performance -- and walked off the stage when the music fucked up and exposed her, I don't think anyone is going to try it again on SNL.

I've said it before but I'll say it again. I LOVED Jake's performances on SNL.

His singing "You're Gonna Love Me" was phenomenal (and that dress!  LOVE the deltoids, Jake!)

He was so cute and funny as the mtv4 singer (How much did you earn? Oh I don't know. About forty dollars. It was our worst song! *laughs*giggles*)

Then he went to sweet and adorable on Bronx Beat.

LOVE HIM!!!!!!!!!!

Just posted this on 'Jake Jake' but since this is more a relevant site -

Blown away by the song performance - but I was put off a bit by Jake's changed appearance - just thought the arms were a little to "Arnold" for me...  (Ducking again...)

[ednbarby]

His arms looked fine to me.  And I do mean fine.   

He's always been pretty ripped, hasn't he?  At least in recent times.  He was quite cut in Jarhead.  They didn't seem overly huge (i.e., performance enhanced) to me.

Maybe it was the cut of the dress.

Yeah, I didn't think his arms looked any different than normal... in fact, when he wasn't wearing a dress I thought to myself that he actually looks thinner now than he has lately. He's always been toned like that, the dress I think just emphasized the muscles. Not that I'm complaining 

Because lately I've been thinking the same thing about Jake, that he was getting too bulky for my tastes (not heavy, I've just never been attracted to muscle-y men), but his SNL appearance re kindled the love

i hate to be the true lone dissenter here other than jess and garry[...]I was personally embaressed by the show and his participation in it....so now ive had my say...you may return to the regularly scheduled broadcast..

Count me in as one of the dissenters Janice, my heart sank lower and lower as the opening monologue progressed.  (Hated the flaming cowboys!)  I felt like Jake was undoing everything BbM had achieved as far as breaking down stereotypes.  Then he sings a showtune from a mediocre movie to appeal to his new gay fanbase?  I felt betrayed.... and glad to be more of a Heathen, lol!

Is there any of Jake on SNL on You Tube?....

If there is, could someone please give me the links.
