Jake Gyllenhaal And Reese Witherspoon: Are They Or Aren’t They?

Rumored on-again/off-again paramours Jake Gyllenhall and Reese Witherspoon came within inches of each other at last night’s premiere of their movie, Rendition, but didn’t speak and only got together for one awkward photo op with the film’s director between them.  Says Us:

“At the after party they were both doing their own thing,” an eyewitness tells Usmagazine.com. “They had friends with them and just hung out with them.” [...]

“You know how actors are who are in projects together — they always go up to each other and say, ‘It’s so good to see you!’ For actors to not talk to each other, they have to either hate each other — which they don’t — or they’re hiding something.”

jakereese2.jpgPersonally, I think they’re adorable together.  And now that Reese’s divorce from Ryan Phillippe is done, she may have decided that she’s ready to try it again.  The two have been an on-again, off-again item for a good part of the summer, with intimate dinners and romantic rendezvous at posh motels, but recently decided to take a bit of a breather.  Since neither are of the PDA type, like so many in Hollyweird, it’s hard to tell whether they are truly busted up or keeping things on the down-low.  (The photo to the left is from the TIFF premiere of Rendition in Toronto, although it does look like they are wearing the same clothes.)

Reese is one of the most attractive women working in film today, with classic clean looks and a beautiful smile, while Jake is one of the few young men in Hollywood I can stand to look at.  I like him minus the beard much better (certain men can do facial hair, Jake isn’t one of them), but he’s fine to look at anyway.  Those eyes!

I hope they can work it out.  And I hope this isn’t a rebound romance for Reese.  All in all, I think they are just what Hollywood needs….a fairly normal couple.  The above photo is as close as they got all night….I think I can feel the tension from here!  What do you think?

  1. I love these two, and together…well I can handle that. I just wish there weren’t all these persistent rumors that Jakey plays for the same team.

    Surely there are good-looking and straight men in Hollywood. Right? In an case, he was awesome in Donnie Darko and Reese was a fabulous June Carter!

  3. Aw, I don’t think Jakey plays for the same team…I think he was just reeeeeeeally convincing in that gay cowboy movie.

    Anyway, I think he’s adorable. He needs to be a bit more rugged, but maybe he’ll age well. :)

  5. Jake is a gentle man. He is kind and sensitive. What a rare thing now days. No matter what team he is on, his partner will be lucky.
