Let it Roll!

Too much Gras in my Mardi. Or maybe too many pancakes for Shrove Tuesday. Or mayb e because the cable people had to come out again!
Thanks for your patience.

Today is all about living it up one last day before many start Lent. It's the time to have fun and not worry. The time for reflection starts tomorrow.

So Laissez les bon temps roulez!

From what we know it seems like Austin can enjoy a good party, and from the pictures so can Jake when he has the right company. Would it be the Pantless Prince with a Santa hat or the " 'scuse me while I lose my shirt" southern gentleman who would get the king's ransom of the beads? Would love to see Jake be the monarch at the Orpheus Krewe Parade. Take note Bruck - Prince of Persia - celebrating Mardi Gras next year ---a Persian float. But who would he throw more beads to?
There is something to be said about Mardi Gras and its debauchery and celebration - no one is worried about anything. There is nothing that can't wait. Sometimes we need days like that, where you stop and let it all go even if it's for just one day you can get back to all the dramas that life brings later.

So put it all aside, and enjoy. Just for one day - or may half of one by the time this post is done. Cause tomorrow -it will be all there for you to find.

And the King Cake? I think Jake and Austin would have no problem making one of those. They already know how to hide the baby.

Damn Austin what's under all those beads you wearing?

Maybe you should take a look.

I am very glad I clicked on Spesh's links and found out there really is a Lundi Gras. The Mrs. told me she had a Fat Monday yesterday because she didn't want to do it today due to her yoga class. I thought she just made that up!

Reese worst dressed

I hope you told the cable guy he wasn't getting any beads Special.

Special K said...

Cable update- another repair and tomorrow they're back again. I swear to all that is holy that they will end up replace everything in a 3 block radius before this is over.

And Lainey? I say let half naked twosomes working it for beads and pancakes be the only thing that raises you blood pressure. : )

Lainey? All her info is from the same person who said Jake Gyllenhaal was accepting the GG award for Heath?! hahaha!

They know how to hide the baby! Love it.

Prairie Girl, I did get to chapter 35 last night. Good, but like I said before, way too long a build up for my taste. Now that they finally did it, maybe it will happen again.

Austin sure likes to take his shirt off. Not that I am complaining. No, not complaining at all.

Back to Reese and Jakey – speculation is building that she’s pregnant. He was spotted at a jewellery store recently, and am told exclusively by a source that at a charity appearance last week, he was overheard saying that he and Reese were both “traditional that way” prompting many to assume that he meant marriage before babies. Keep you posted.

LOL

Scenario: high school in LA lower income area with a high dropout and pregnancy rate

Maybe a student asked Jake about having kids? Who knows, but the best answer for him or anyone to give to these or any high school kids was "get married first."

OTOH "overheard saying that he and Reese were both “traditional that way” doesn't specifiy what he was refferring to. Could have been about recycling cans and glass bottles. And if it was about something totally unrelated to Reeke, the line "many to assume that he meant marriage before babies" is a stretch, linking a simple comment to Reese is pregnant and Jake is proposing. I dunno what fiction is worse, PR or gossip sites.

What is traditional about getting knocked up first, then married? Besides, her boobs and face show no weight gain at all. And we know they did not hold hands the whole time. They were not even together the whole time. We have pictures to prove it. That statment was made in response to Ryan "touching" Abbie all the time. PR loves to backfill.

2009 years and counting. You got a problem with that?

Jake "overheard talking about private matters" on some party is bullshit made up by Lainey.

One Tree Hill has been renewed for another season

Anonymous said...

Did we get married? All I remember is you were pregnant and then we had to hightail it out of town on a burro.

Lainey will keep you posted. That is a joke. The only thing she can tell you is what she reads in the newspaper or US Weekly. She has absolutely no insider information nor does she have any insight on what people who actually live and work in Hollywood think. Her shilling for Reese is pitiful.

destiny said...

Lainey, the woman who thinks Jake is straight but his boyfriend gay.

I wonder what the renewal of OTH will mean for Austin. Even if he doesn't come back, he should get some credit for giving them good buzz this season.

prairiegirl said...

Great news about One Tree Hill - hope Austin's role gets renewed. I think him and Brooke make a great pair. And also leaves open the possibilities of more shirtless Austin.

I can't believe these constant rumor droppings. And droppings is an excellent term I think. Have you ever heard so many in your life about one couple who took an entire year to "come out" as a couple? Absolutely unbelievable. Traditional. Yeah, right, LOLLL!
Even Jake is not traditional, give me a break. I could strain an oblique muscle laughing at that one.

Hey, Jake, I did like your "Green is good" comment. What I need now from you is one of your "thumbs up"'s. Let me see that green thumb of yours.

You made me chuckle, Destiny. I know, tempting, isn't it?

Hey, Special, I hope at least one of those cable guys is nice to look at. That would at least take some of the sting off this whole thing. Like those repair guys with the jeans that go all day long and tools dangling off those belts.

Reese is starting a film very soon--I doubt she's getting pregnant in the near future.

prairiegirl said...

Shark attack!!!

Lol. Just got back from being bit at over on WFT2. I'm escaping back to my safe home. Ahhhhh. Home sweet home.

Nah, I love 'em over there. They let me post my inane comments. Best not to push my luck, tho.

destiny said...

I suspect its a troll or babbler trying to stir up trouble PG.

I love popping on here today and seeing shirtless men, cakes and babies. :-D

prairiegirl said...

Oh, yeah, they're being trolled alright. I'm exhausted. Sometimes they talk in circles with contradictory statements. It's enough to make you scratch your head and go "Huh?"

I always try and think about what on earth prompts these scoffer attacks. What on earth could they be unsettled about? For crying out loud, they're even picking on Heath. The guy is 6 feet under, has been for over a year now. And they're lamblasting him and his Oscar. Unbelievable.

They've got Reeke. Reeke all over with their joint appearance at the VF party. What is there to be unsettled about? Seems to me they must not be able to keep from lurking on enemy lines. Then they see something that rankles and pfft! before you know it, you've been trolled.

Well, time to turn in. Way past the bedtime. Clock's a gong'ing.

Special K said...

No cute cable men, but no crazy Jim Carey's either. Let's just hope it this is the last time they are out....for February. LOL

seeing shirtless men, cakes and babies
ad campaign or movie pitch? Can you imagine selling that one.

Anybody else have pancakes today?

Special K said...

Anyone see these captions? Check out Jake & Penelope

Best Week Ever - Oscar

Anonymous said...

Jake was wandering around the party interacting with others. Males included. Maybe he had some confidentiality agreements in his pocket so PR is worried.

You mean the ream of confidentiality agreements we printed up for him prescription-pad style, with a little gold oscar on top?

Jamie Foxx is playing a full deck of Hollywood cards in his latest video, "Blame It On The A-L-C-O-H-O-L," where actors Samuel L. Jackson and Forest Whitaker are spotted with T-Pain.

In the video preview (below), Jackson, Whitaker, Ron Howard and Jake Gyllenhaal make cameos with the Oscar winning star.

Such a Thing as a Real Hollywood Love Story?

Clearly most of you bitchin' commenters are starting to see that not every relaysh is People-friggin' perf. Jen Aniston and John Mayer may act like a "normal" couple, but you all know, and mostly agree, something just isn't what it seems there.

Now for some of you whiners, no, we don't think every Hollywood couple is fake, just that most have their own agendas, but hey, a lot of regular people use each other, too.

So who are our three of fave user couples?

1. Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens
Since tweens can't get Rob Pattinson and Kristen Stewart together, this is the next best young couple. HSM has sky rocketed in popularity since the onscreen loves became all cutesy in real life. Plus, two is better than one, so both Hollywood virgins get extra press à la Brangelina. Zac would probably be fine on his own, but no one would give a hoot about V (aside from nudey pics) if she wasn't dating him. "You should have seen them at the Vanity Fair Oscar party; she would never leave his side," blabbed someone inside (maybe us!). "She knows exactly what she's getting out of this relationship."

2. Hayden Christensen and Rachel Bilson
The newly engaged pair so does not scream together forever to us. Why? 'Cause they're never together. We know about some of their past successful relationships, and let's just say we don't see these two working out. Adam Brody on the other hand? Why the ef did R.B. ever split with that cutie? Now that was a couple we'd like to see back together.

3. Cindy and John McCain
Look, even America didn't buy that totally fabricated, wholesome family unit crap! This is a duo who haven't been truly together since Marie Osmond was a one-woman woman. Just gives us hope here at A.T. that not everybody's into being cupid hoodwinked in this country. But will Hollywood fans follow suit?

Far more showmance dissections to come in this department, fer sure.

Dear Ted:
You get hunkier all the time. I know you're humble, though, so I won't belabor the point. Listen, would the first initial of Toothy's last name be "A"? And on another topic entirely, do you foresee trouble with a major good-looking Hollywood couple (the husband has been known to have a vice known as gambling and the wifey just had another baby)?

Dear Ted:
Is Toothy Tile Jim Carrey? And if not, why not?
—Julia

Dear Talkin' Toothy:
Jimmy's been living a pretty drama-less life with longtime gal-pal Jenny McCarthy. And Jim doesn't need a female fling to keep his career up—he needs a good movie role. Soon.
—SnoRom

Dear Blind Vice Bitching:
Thanks, and yes, I do. As for name gaming with Toothy, he isn't Ben Affleck

The Awful Truth

Star Jones, her boyfriend, chef Herb Wilson, and a crew of her homies were reportedly acting a fool at an Oscar viewing party at 1Oak Sunday night. According to both the New York Daily News and Post, the former co-host of "The View" loudly booed Reese Witherspoon's dress and joked that her boyfriend, Jake Gyllenhaal, could do better. Denise Rich and Lynn Whitfield were also at Star's table. When Sean Penn said during his best actor acceptance speech that he was "proud to live in a country that elected an elegant man president," Jones stood up from her table, started cheering wildly and planted a big kiss on Wilson.
