I wish they'd just leave Jakie-boy alone.  All the rumours are getting so tiresome... :-\
I hope he doesn't shy away from being seen with guy friends, screw the tabloids....

I was at the dollar theater this weekend (love the dollar theater - took my niece to see Pink Panther) and before the movie started, you know how they play those quotes and stuff from E!? Well, all the quotes made people out to be jerks. These are word for word (we got there way too early and watched them over and over).

Catherine Zeta Jones said:
Michael Douglas is my Google.

Cameron Diaz said:
I love older men. Oh my god. Totally.

Tom Hanks said:
I should be considered the luckiest guy.

Jake Gyllenhaal said (about being almost totally nude in a film):
It's easy to feel sexy.
(This one might not be word for word because each time his name came up, I started daydreaming about Jack and Ennis).

Anyway, I don't know why I posted this except that when I saw the words Jake and sex in the subject line, this is what it made me think of.
...then you ask me about Mexico and tell me you'll kill me for needing somethin' I don't hardly never get.

Are you kidding?   That is great publicity for him!    Note how his agent only said that they (Jake and Austin) were not a couple.    He didn't say "Jakes not gay".  This way he won't offend his gay fans, nor his female fans.     That is smart marketing!

I guess no publicity is bad publicity in the Showbiz world, but thinking about it from Jake's perspective, he must be so sick of it!  I mean, it must get tiring (or amusing, I guess) to have thousands of people speculating on who you sleep with... :-\

I'm a gay fan, and it wouldn't offend me if Jake were to come out as resolutely, emphatically heterosexual. I think it would be refreshing if he were to come out as gay or bi, in part simply because I find it tiresome how no openly gay or bi actors are ever willing to play gay characters on screen (God, even a significant percentage of gay-porn performers insist on their off-screen heterosexuality). Ultimately, though, no better actors could have been found for Ennis and Jack than our Heath and Jake, and the fact that two ostensibly straight men could have created the most passionate and nuanced gay-male screen couple I know makes their respective performances nothing short of astonishing.

Hollywood isn't known for being a nice place. Gossip has been a staple of that industry for decades. Jake's a sex symbol. He's not dating anyone, so ppl have to find something else to talk about. Well, let's talk about the man's sexuality.  Maybe they'll drive him out of the country and he will go work in theater in London for awhile.  Though the Britts have their tabloids as well and Jake is an intl celebrity so they'd shadow hiim as well.

Personally, I think he's cultivating his mystique.  A star shouldn't tell too much about him or herself.  I think I'm paraphrasing Agnes Moorehead, keep them guessing.
