Stylin' n Profilin'

Jake is hiding his long locks with a hoodie, and with his self confess big knoggin, maybe all that hair, a hoodie is the only thing that fits. Either that or doing the monk look. If he starts hitting himself in the face with a plank and chanting Python, we know he's been in England too long.

Where he comes up with his tricky movie hair seems to be from suggestions from the director and the makeup teams.

But Austin, it looks like he turned on the TV and found his. Wouldn't you agree?

I get it now, maybe it's considered hilarious because he's just being himself? :)

Can somebody please translate the word "freeperish"? I hear the courier troll using it a lot, and I'm sorry, I don't know what it means. Thank you! :)

Love the source for the JFC style.

Very cute and clever post, Special. I don't know how you keep coming up with these ideas. So creative!

Special K said...

See what happens when you watch too much TV like me. That one JFC pic was the seed for this post. I knew I had seen it somewhere. In all the other JFC pics, it is a cross between Morrissey, Brad Pitt in Blue Suede (shutter) Chris Isaac, and a little Eraserhead. But this was all Jimmy Neutron Boy Wonder.

Now his hair for Full Count - oh that's just Ice Ice Baby.

I do love Austin pulls things in from around him to recreate himself.

What the heck is he going to look like when he gets back from Italy then?!?

Found this on WFT2-

Rite Aid simply ain’t right. A reader sent in this image from one of the pharmacy’s New York City locations (on Sixth Avenue at West 13th Street) and, as you can see, it’s not the most welcoming message.

This isn’t the first time Rite-Aid has found itself in a queer controversy. A DC-based manager came under fire last year after booting an “overly affectionate” gay couple.

The best part of this sign, we think, is mention of “anything that would make our customers uncomfortable is prohibited in the store.” We suppose manager Tom Marquez didn’t consider the gay customers in that one, huh? Someone else must have, because the sign, which appeared around 7am on Sunday, was soon removed…

And, just for your reference, here are Rite Aid’s corporate numbers and the number for Mr. Marquez’s location: 212-727-3720. Do with that what you will…

His Horse?

Hope he's already had some vacation, cause its a bummer when you have bring work on vacation with you.

destiny said...

Thanks phone call for the story about the Rite Aid. Kind of hard to believe this happened at a location in Greenwich Village, where you know a lot of the customers are gay.

Dlisted's post on Kidman having her baby--and naming her Sunday Rose--jokes that Urban wanted to name the baby Gray Goose.

Billy looks so scary in that pic!

Very clever. I dont know how you do it, but you do it well.

I bet Austin brings home a whole new wardrobe of sleek Italian clothes. Maybe he will do some promo for The Informers and we will get to see him in them.

More and more reviews of the Dark Knight out, all outstanding. I think I will have to see it more than once.

I've just read some comments on DL regarding Jake's recent photos on a horseback. They think he's mocking gay people. The comments are awful.

Posted anon @ 3:21. They delete anons here. Make up a name.

london tb said...

I just don't get that opinion - but then, I wouldn't, given what I believe. Jake's a jester but I don't see him as crass or phobic. Anon, you will be deleted btw unless you get a name.

Adorable post, Special. The Pebbles hair is my favourite too :) And the thought of Austin in Italy ... in Rome, on the volcanic beaches in Ischia - well, it's diverting. Wonder where he is now?

Anonymous said...

I didn't think anything of those horse pics at first, but combined with Anne's comment about his impression of a gay man ordering a drink, I don't know what to think. Why even go there - there's no excuse, it is phobic and crass to make jokes like that, regardless of who is making them. We don't let anyone else off the hook for doing that.

Blue Velvet said...

The photo of Austin with Matthew Frost from earlier this year is in Jalouse Magazine.

Can anyone translate the text?

Like what? We don't know anything about the joke.

Anonymous said...

^^Well, my feeling is why even let stuff like that out in the public when it could be misinterpreted? I think the horse pics truly are just his learning how to ride and a bit unsteady in the saddle, but you've got to wonder why they even let them out for publication. If he's a jester and campy, that's ok for him and those who understand his brand of humor, but he and his people have to remember that info about him is going to be seen by millions, gay and straight, who could misunderstand and may not find it so amusing. What he finds camp and funny, someone else may think is crass and goes too far.

You can't be real and live that way. It's possible to offend someone, somewhere by any action.

He isn't being real either - why start now? You can't be half real or real when it suits you, you've gotta be real all the time. I don't know.

First it was Jake who was the target of "funny" comments (if I remember correctly, he was called "princess" even on this blog) and people made fun of him now suddenly he is the one who is making fun of/ mocking gay people......interesting to see how different one moment or picture can be interpreted.....

Anonymous said...

Spesh, great post today, and love the song! My favorite is the John McEnroe hair. :)

Anonymous said...

The whole theory that Jake is mocking gay people comes from the Babblers.
They prefer if Jake is making fun of gay people, because the other option would be that he's acting a little campy. And we can't have that, can we?

Why they feel the need to bring this to OMG, I don't know. Or actually, I think I do...

Dang, Spesh, you missed one. Probably the best side by side ever.

Remember this one?

Special K said...

Yes I remember that one. It's good.

But that is a picture isn't my favorite picture of the him, wonder why.

Although I do admit I'm a fan of Beavis & Butthead.



And I take take no responsibility for members of Red Sox Nation and definitely not anything associated with Yankees. Let's just say, that Giambi's moustache and his thong, might have helped the win the best out of the series this weekend, but they are still in the basement, and sadly the Sox in second place in the AL East to the the RAYS?!?!?!?!

Anonymous said...

I'm sure Austin would like to forget that mugshot picture and I can see why. He took alot of cruel comments for that picture on the internet, makes me cringe just to remember it. But the comparison was lipcurling, to say the least.

Dadgum it, am I going to have to register on IHJ? Where do they get their pictures, anyway? They must have "weatherwatchers" stationed across the globe. These last several sightings seem to have all of Jake's fans in a quandary, myself included. He's got fans on both sides of the fence dueling & squabbling like the Hatfields & McCoys. Just a couple of ponderings:

The 1st hoodie pic at J Johnson concert. This one could be a waxsealer for me except for a couple things: one, his eyes not being closed nor on her; two, why only 1 picture? Was this the best of the bunch? The rest of this guy's pictures were of the concert itself if I remember right; and 3, these series of pictures being the first posting of pictures by this Jacob fella.

The infamous horse pictures. Either he's alot less intelligent that I give him credit for or he really might be giving Reese & Reeke the bird with these pictures. I can't believe he would mock the gay community given what we know about his godparents, his friendship with Rufus W., and the fact that he was so proud of doing BBM. Having said that, I'm still surprised he could be saying "Take that", if that is indeed what he's doing. Just like someone said above, in this day & age of the cellphone camera & internet, celebrities have to constantly be on guard & think twice about what they do. Things can get misconstrued & blown way out of proportion. Whatever he's doing, it's kind of backfiring because his fans don't know what in the heck to think.

Thanks, fyi.

Before it sounds like I'm coming down hard, just want to say that none of us really knows. I'm still leaving it open because there's still too many things that haven't added up since the beginning of this whole thing. Save for another day, tho. Time will tell. Geez, but hasn't everyone been waiting for what seems like an eternity? Who could've known in October that this would still be going on?

And isn't it interesting and so much of a coincidence that Austin is suddenly in Europe? What interesting timing...

Anonymous said...

Who can figure out what is going on in Jake's head these days. He seems completely changed by Reeke. I just hope he doesn't show up with her at the TDK premiere. It would be a bit too much of a reminder of the photos we saw of them right after Heath's passing.

Anonymous said...

It'll be interesting, that's for sure. I can't imagine him attending. The timing of it would be appalling. He's been silent about it up to this point, it would be very wise to continue to be so and not attend.

I'm afraid I would have to agree as far as him seeming to be changed by Reeke, although all I have to go on is what I see online, but pictures can tell so much. I know he's gotten older and he's not the young man he was, say, even 2-3 yrs ago when he was a constantly smiling fool holding Boo, but just going on the set of his facial expressions now, he seems to have aged 10 years. Sometimes, he looks as cold as Reese herself. Like I said, you can't hang around someone constantly like he is with her and not have that person's POV's, outlook, opinions, language tendencies, and overall attitude rub off on you.

I hope he proves me wrong. I hope this car makes a U-turn soon and rights itself. But it just doesn't look like it. Seems she's got her hooks in him and doesn't want to let go. And if he doesn't want to be let go, then for gosh sakes, just say something and quit hiding behind a hoodie.

Ahh, feel much better now. Blogging is so cathartic.

My take on the gay joke is that it is OK to mock yourself. If you are jewish, you can tell jokes about jewish customs. If you are black, you can tell jokes about black issues and sterotypes. At the time Jake did the gay impression, he was on the verge of coming out and more comfortable with his own gayness.

I dont like to talk about Reese, but in the latest pics, in the rain, she looks terrible. Old and tired. I think the strain of pretending is getting to her as well. Maybe she is not happy about Austin being near by.

New pictures from dinner with Bruckeimer. The expressions on their faces are very odd, especially Jake. And neither one of them looks good. Sure doesn't look like they had a good time at dinner, I wonder what business they were talking about.

Funny how Just Jared pretty much only ran pictures of Reese.

Anonymous said...

Yes, Destiny, they look very off. She is dressed in a nice satin coat, he looks like he rolled out of a dumpster. Bruckheimer is efectively their boss - I mean Reeke's boss, since POP is the reason for the straightening. Maybe their performance review did not go well.

There is definitely some kind of clothing disconnect, not the first time but it looks more obvious.

A bit rumpled but still an outfit that Jake would go out in, but adding shaggy Jake and hoodie make him look a bit rougher.

london tb said...

Morning Spesh - you're up late!

Dinner with the boss, meh. In defence of Reeke - bet you never thought you'd see that - our weather alone is bad enough for those pissed-off expressions.

That Metro discussion is curious - why bother with Metro after publishing day. You wouldn't go back to Metro of all places and have a debate. Perhaps it's an internet thing.

Ohhhhhh, now I remember! Free Republic. I knew it sounded vaguely familiar. I've never been associated with anything right wing ever in my life I don't think, so I forgot! That's our Jack troll, so astute with his observations. ;)

New Reeke Pics? Still reeking, can smell it all the way over from London. However, Jake is metamorphosing, at least into the Prince, very nicely. I can see it. So that's good news of a fashion, I guess.

So, Reese the perfect soccer mom, has left her kids for over 3 weeks to go and live in London with her "boyfriend" while he gets ready to film a movie. What do all of her wonderful fans think of that. She's recently divorced and is taking her "boyfriend" over kids. Way to make those kids feel loved and like they're first priority.
