Wet n Wild

Check out the promo for Jake on Man vs. Wild.


That's some kind of wild.



And how's this for some hair?
One question: How did Jake who's vision is poor, do this with contacts on, and in hard lenses no less?

Jake was a little more civilized yesterday spotted out in the wilds of WeHo at a fav, Urth Cafe.

And the Wild Turkey?

The script of the first episode was delivered to the cast Sunday/Monday, and everyone is heading to back to the big Tree now. Filming starts sometime next week.

I love it, Jake looks beautiful - you can see how powerful the winds are, Jake's skin is red, and his beautiful lashes. Can't wait to watch. :)

This is New York Magazine's description of Jake's promo for Man vs. Wild.

"Well, they're right up in my throat right now." ("They" being Jake's own balls.) Also: "lowercase or uppercase?" Never has a wilderness show inspired such squealing. Jake's episode airs July 11; see you then.

Special K said...

I'm can't to see this Man vs. Wild. Jake is in for one hell of an adventure. But he looks like he's ready to take a crack at all of it.

Here's Bear and Will Ferrell.

Not for the squeamish or faint of heart when it comes to dining.

Special K said...

If you needed more proof Michal K was right and that Olivia(and team) was behind the mention with Jake.

Check this out today in People.

Ryan Reynolds or Jake Gyllenhaal: Whom Should Olivia Wilde Date?

BTW Looks like Jake was Chateau Marmont on Sat. night. not Monday night that Perez was trying to float.

Ted said...

Does Jake Gyllenhaal Have the Balls to Brave the Wild with Bear Grylls?

There isn't much that can make us want to ditch our luxurious L.A. lifestyles, especially not the chance to freeze our tushes off in some remote Icelandic wilderness.

But the thought of cozying up with Jake Gyllenhaal in a sleeping bag at night—for warmth, duh—is pretty damn tempting. Not that it matters, 'cause we'll be stuck watching J.G.'s extremely icy adventures on Man vs. Wild from the safety of our homes.

So how are Jakey's survival odds really looking out in the big, bad wilderness?

Surprisingly, pretty good!

A new promo vid for the premiere of Bear Grylls' outdoorsy escapes hit the net today and shows Jake getting into some real risky situations—without a stuntman to do the life-threatening stuff for him, no less!

First of all, the weather looks friggin' terrible, what with the wind and the ice and the snow. It's a shame (and a totally missed opportunity on Discovery's part) that the twosome couldn't explore the Galapagos Islands or somewhere exotic.

At least then we'd probably get a few gratuitous shirtless scenes to peek at Jake's ab-tastic bod. Trust us, our Love & Other Drugs DVD can only tide us over for so long.

But what actually surprised us was that it looks like Jake will be in some real danger. Duh, we've seen the show before, but we thought B.G. might have tamed down his usual pee-drinking, rock-climbing ways for a more T-town suited outing.

So note the case.

Spoiler alert: Jake lives (despite any concern his peeps may have had that he wouldn't survive), but we're still excited to see him get through the adventure. And if the video clip is any indication, it will make for one hilarious episode.

Case in point: When Bear asks Jake to help dig "a big letter H" into the snow covered dirt, Jakey-poo responds, "Lowercase or uppercase?" Too funny! Wonder what the two are writing though...

Possibly: "Help me, Olivia Wilde"?

Probably not but we'll find out July 11 when Jake's appearance airs on the Discovery Channel.

Gossip Cop indicates today (June 29th) that Oliva Wilde is disspelling the flirting rumors herself. Yeah right. What's even more intriguing is just like Perez, GC is indicating that the suspect Marmont "touchy feely" session took place on Monday night too. Wonder why it's so important to place Jake at Chateau Marmont on Monday when he clearly was there on Saturday night? Sounds familiar doesn't it?

Just a few days ago, adds the mag, “Wilde got touchy-feely with Jake Gyllenhaal” at Chateau Marmont, “where the two chatted and acted flirty.”

Wilde Rumors

prairiegirl said...

It's because they think we're stupid and we'll just buy any ol' date they throw out there.

They think they're dealing with a bunch of idiots with tapioca pudding for brains.

We see things out there on Twitter and Facebook.

And they're being documented and incorporated into the timeline and Word Document.


So there.

Florida Tom said...

They can convince all they want PG. I think most people think Jake is Gay.

Special K said...

Looking at the promo again, you can see that Jake's people and the insurance underwriters must have had a coronary when they realized what he had done. (And we have only seen a teeny part of it)

I love how you get the see little glimmers of that quirky funny Jake that still lurks within.

Great!

prairiegirl said...

Wow oh wow oh wow, how fun to sleep in this morning. I don't have to go in for another hour and a half because this day is one of those accounting people's big days and you know how that goes. Numbers and more numbers, everyone gets worked up, conference calls and more numbers.

Hey look who was here - ol' Ben and William Penn. Cool!!! lol

Well, it is nearing the 4th of July, you know.

Clearly this is not Michelle Bachmann so it must be Jack.

20:08, How do you tell which Tweets are fake and which are real?

prairiegirl said...

Darn, I missed it. In the shower, I'm afraid.

Hey, this is one of those quirky kind of coincidences.

Hot pictures of NPH over on Just Jared this morning. Talk about a guy who blossomed. I mean, he always was a cute kid but now he's just hot. I think he just joined the once solo club of guy-with-hot-feet-in-flip-flops.

Anyway, lol...where was I? Oh yeah.

What does NPH have in his hands?

BB&B bags. What's BB&B? Bed Bath & Beyond, of course. I can't be bothered spitting all of that out so I've always just shortened it to BB&B.

And someone we know around these parts was spotted at BB&B just a few days ago......hmmm, who would that be?

Why, Mr. Jakey of course!!

In sweatpants, no less, the Tom Ford crime of it all. I just find it one of those quirky kind of things, that's all.....

prairiegirl said...

I just wonder what BB&B had that Jake needed? One of those plastic conformed containers that holds your onion, lemon or tomato? You know, the onion one is beige, the lemon one is yellow and the tomato one is red - looks just like a little tomato?

Maybe some new 600 thread count sheets for that big bed...

Or maybe some last minute things for a Big Kid's dorm - I mean, new place far, far away. Stylish lamp. Laundry basket. Maybe a Big & Tall shower mat. You know, BB&B has these memory foam ones that are really luxurious.

**think, think, think**

Last observation - I only have 27 minutes left before I have to leave.

Why does Jake have a slathering of lip balm on his lips in his last two outings, the one at Perth and the one at the doctor's building? His lips are actually tinted, there's so much on them.

Maybe lifeguarding again? Remember back in the day when lifeguards used to have white lips because of the lip balm of long ago? Of course, now they're all made clear but not Jake's.

Just found it interesting, that's all. Just casual observances!!!

prairiegirl said...

Had to correct my time left - heaven forbid I should be accused of lying.

I forgot how to count time, lol.

prairiegirl said...

Living on the edge! I threw in a Delicate load of 3 minutes and now it's a race against the clock.

You know, I like flax seed but I just have to have it all ground up. When it's still in that seed form and it's in your cereal? Undoubtedly, one little seed is going to get stuck down there inside the bottom of your lower lip and you can't get that thing out for the life of you. That has got to be one of the top little food annoyances of all time.

Little bit of Roseannerosanneadanna for ya. lol. Oh oh, the Delicate load isn't done yet, gonna be pushin' it to the limit.

Special K said...

It could be some kind of sunscreen, or all-natural Burt's Bees that is keeping those lips soft and supple, or healing them from too much ...ummm use. Burt's does come in tints.

Maybe Jake found the Skittles Bonnie Bell Lip Smackers at the checkout of Bed Bath and Beyond and someone likes the taste of his rainbow.

Methodical Muser said...

I noticed that Jake is trending everywhere for this Man vs. Wild episode. I'm wondering if that's why old Olivia is jumping on the bandwagon with all this "flirty" fake publicity. Let's face it, her last name does come in handy when doing keyword searches for Jake Gyllenhaal these days. Piggybacking on someone else's publicity is a cheap way to go in a recession.

destiny said...

PG, I eat a cereal called Flax Plus, you can find it at some stores and places like Whole Foods. It has the seed ground up in the cereal, so no annoying seeds. It tastes pretty good too.

No way of knowing who put the flirting story out there. Wilde does seem desperate for attention, but I could see Jake's camp doing it too.

the real m said...

"keeping those lips soft and supple, or healing them from too much ...ummm use" Now that's a nice image to take with me to work today. This is swimming weather. Good chance Jake and his kids are spending time in the back yard pool so its probably sunscreen.

Tom, your comments re clues to my protege being gay are dead on. Its all friends, friends, friends. The only reference to a female so far has been to a sister. The fact that hes gay has not stopped him from being the lead actor is my most recent fantasies. Cute and sexy is cute and sexy.

One of the key questions I ask myself when it comes to publicity is who benefits the most. Since Jake is already getting significant positive coverage for this upcoming episode, I see no reason for his people to float such cheesy and frankly pretty irrelevant gossipy innuendos and assignations about "touchy feely" stuff at Chateau Marmont. Certainly this "Who should Olivia Date?" nonsense doesn't fit the demographic Jake and Bear are aiming for with this Discovery adventure. Add in how the blurbs about Ryan Gosling, Justin Timberlake and Bradley Cooper all sound alike and there's a pretty good chance that Olivia Wilde's team are the procreators of this nonsense.

Cool ur jets girl. This guy must be hot. Does he have an older brother for Tom of Olay:-)

prairiegirl said...

LOLLLL!!! Tom, you're killing me.

destiny said...

Jake is all about the cheesy when it comes to bearding. And Jake and his people I'm sure are happy with anything that shows how Jake looooves the women and can't possibly be gay. It's also very convenient to use someone who is all too happy to have her name associated with any man in HW with gay rumors attached to him.

just saying said...

Jake hasn't been bearding since the whole Swift joke though. That's been nearly 7 months.

Methodical Muser said...

I don't disagree that Jake acts like an idiot when he's bearding, but in the grand scheme of things he's been pretty tame lately. Wilde is obviously looking for a bearding contract. Don't think Jake is much interested. Time will tell though.
