Bathroom muse Jake Gyllenhaal’s “people” — the same ones orchestrating all those romances he’s been involved with lately — thought they walked in on him and a male “friend” during an intimate tie-tying moment at the BAFTAs during Brokeback Mountain‘s whirlwind tour. This proved more awkward when said friend got uber excited for Jake’s win. This is how rumors get started, people.

Did Jake Gyllenhall manage to get a new beard for this movie promotion?
Michael in Toronto
If he IS gay, and hiding it, this was an interesting anecdote for HIM to bring up, know what I mean?
kitty litter
He is talkking about his friend and documentary filmaker David Modigliani (Crawford).
The only interesting thing about it is why bring it up almost 6 years after ? I remember David’s reaction when he won, it’s on video.
PS: Mr Modigliani is straight
The sane Francis
Sexuality isn’t solely gay and straight. So……….yeah. Take that for what it is.

I have no issues with stars or anyone for that matter not confirming their orientation since it is no one’s business but their own. I do however have issues with bearding…
Marcus
All I have to say is: well played, Jake. And on Kimmel, no less.
Clap clap clap.
Mary Taylor
@kitty litter: are you sure he means that guy? he said ‘corey’ in the clip, plus the guy in the vid clip of the baftas looks different to David Modigliani

It’s more the “dating” the beard of the 21st Century, Taylor Swift.
Zeus
And why exactly does he have to talk in a gay lisp every time he imitates his “peoples'” reaction to this story?
McMike
@Gregger: Isn’t that a riot!!! I’ve noticed Taylor Swift has dated sooo many gay men. I’ve noticed this too, but not nearly as much, with Renee Zellweger. I bet you Taylor Swift is a lesbian.
McMike
Um, OK, so he’s talking about the guy and the “gay moment” and the guy is sitting in the audience? Sounds like it’s a lot, lot longer than just one moment.
gregger
@McMike: I don’t think she’s a clam smacker, but I think it helps her career to “date” these hot young guys who have bigger careers than her career. She’s probably into ethnic men and is scared to date them publicly. Either that or she’s really screwing a cousin.
Michael
beard doesn’t equal gay
anthony mark delos reyes
