Star Catcher
Jake G. Faces the Reese Issue

Posted Oct 16th 2007 1:50PM by TMZ Staff

Jake Gyllenhaal might be able to avoid being seen with Reese Witherspoon, but that doesn't mean he can skirt questions about her, too!


The "Brokeback" star was signing autographs after taping an appearance on Letterman yesterday, but when fans only wanted the dish on him and Reese, Jake's answer was just a funny face. Celebrity sneer campaign!

Meanwhile, it isn't often that 76-year-old Regis Philbin meets a fan on the street that makes him look like the young one. But lo and behold, Reege encountered a woman who not only remembers a time when Regis wasn't on TV -- she remembers when there was no TV!

In L.A., Bai Ling looked electric in a dress suitable for driving the Mars rover, Laverne and Shirley (yes, the actual Laverne and Shirley), and you'll never guess which funnyman our photog had to give directions to!

All this and more in todays "schlemiel, schlemazel" edition of Star Catcher!

5. Good Lord, Jake is SOOOOO hot!
Just because a guy is this hot does not make him gay.

6. I really don't understand the IGNORANCE that people have. This ACTOR played a gay character. You ignorant folks out there can't understand that it was HIS JOB. He also played a Marine. Now, do you think he is also a Marine in real life? What is wrong with you people? Leave him alone and let him be the talented (and hot) actor that he is!!!

7. That's a damn shame that a fan has the balls to ask Jake the question about Reese while none of the people who have interviewed him have. Not the Today show, or Regis. What a bunch of wusses. I wonder if Conan or Jon Stewart will ask. I hope Jon Stewart also asks Jake what he meant when he said the" government should be like our parents."

8. He's gay and it's quite alright! No need to get up in arms about it. And, right, because he played a gay character doesn't make him gay. No one thinks (or cares if) Tom Hanks is gay because of his role in "Philadelphia". Jake has never EVER been photgraphed so much as kissing a woman (Kirsten D. does not count - every gay guy has dated a woman at some point in his life, and they never even seemed remotely romantic). Even trash like Ryan Seacrest pretend to go on dates. I just hope Jake's happy.

9. So what was Jake suppose to do when a group of strangers want the gossip about his break-up with Reese - tell them every detail? Just once I'd like to see a celeb turn the tables, ask a bunch of strangers who want to know his or her private life: "How's your love life, getting any lately? Ah, you broke up, what a shame. Guess you just weren't good enough in bed. Better luck next time."

13. What's with Reese dating all these obvious closet cases? I think she needs to find a real man.

Oh god, he takes my breath away! Whether cringing with the crowd yelling or flashing us his dazzling smile, I love some Jake!
