Jake in NYC while Maggie hits Paris

If, when I'd been at LAX on Saturday, someone had told me that Jake Gyllenhaal would be there on the same day as me, I would not have been surprised, after my string of near misses. So, what do you know? Yep, Jake followed my trail of breadcrumbs but took a wrong turning and ended up in New York City instead of London.


Jake and Reese were photographed coming out of the clothing store APC on Mercer Street, SoHo, yesterday (2 March) before later on having dinner at a restaurant with the unusual name of Prune at 54 East 1st Street. Looking at the dinner menu, this is not a good place for veggies, but I could definitely be tempted by the steamed Prince Edward Island mussels and the pineapple upside down cake.


I know there'll be more than one person here who'll be delighted to see the return of The Cardigan. I'm also wondering how long Jake can keep those trainers/sneakers white.


Meanwhile, more Gyllenhaals have been travelling. The three Gyllenhaal ladies, Naomi, Maggie and Ramona, are in Paris, where they were spotted yesterday having a stroll, including Ramona, who is now well and truly on her feet.




Ramona's style isn't a surprise considering that Maggie has been enjoying Paris Fashion Week. Maggie and Naomi were both seen attending the event and Maggie was spotted scrambling for her seat at Marc Jacobs' Louis Vuitton show on the closing night of the event.

now this really puzzles me. I figured one of the reasons Jake went to NY (he hasn't been there since Oct when he was doing press for Rendition) was to see Maggie and his niece (and maybe his parents) and they're not even there!

I am hoping maybe Jake might at least visit with Michelle and Matilda while he is in NY. maybe he has some business he needs to do for his upcoming film.

yeah I know he could also just be in NY to do some shopping and hanging out and relaxing before he has to go to work at the end of this month.

But still it would be nice if he paid his respects to Michelle and his goddaughter

G'morning, y'all!

WDW, jetlagged you may be but yr inspiration continues to ride high.

Hmm, I wonder iff J and R have a place in Soho - remember when R and J and Chris seemed to be checking out a property?

Maggie and Naomi and Ramona in Paris, O my! - Maggie's coat is sensational! ! ! Wonder if she has aspirations to design, herself. Bet she does. And I love the - crocheted? - shawl of Ramona.

I know a stroller in London is called a "push chair" - wonder what it's called in Paris?

Delishus pictures! ! ! (on a dim wintery day - )

o gosh got excited again, it's me -
Im so jealous of that coat, I really want it. can we get any more info on desiger, etc.

Since Reese has her official UN announcement/meeting tomorrow it makes sense that they are taking the chance for some days off. Love that Jake is with her for "support".:-))

What a pity that his other three girls are not there....

Ramona is cute - she looks like her daddy..:-))

And yes, Maggies coat is a riot - she looks great!

twistedlogic said...

Jake really does seem to be suffering from a bad case of bad timing lately. First he misses WDW in LA about a thousand times, then at the airport and now he's in NY while Maggie's in Paris! I have to say, I feel a bit uncomfortable looking at pics of Ramona (or any other celebrity kids) but she is SO cute. And I love her little shawl:) Hopefully Maggie will be back in NY before Jake leaves. I'd love to see new pics of them together.

twistedlogic said...

Forgot to say, when I saw the headline of this post my first thought was that Maggie had been in a fight with Paris Hilton!!

Anonymous said...

Jake joined Reese because she has to hold a speech or something in New York. They were shopping and out wih friends for dinner. It seems they have a good time.

Maggie looks glamorous in Paris. Good times!

I agree Trekfan! Jake seemed to hang out with Heath, Michelle and Matilda a lot when the girl was born. Maybe they weren't as close anymore recently, but it'd still be nice if he visited Matilda. I'm sure she'd be happy to see her Godfather.

Anonymous said...

We have no idea what his plans are or who he is visiting with.We only know the facts: J&R are in NYC. They shopped. They went out for food. We have no idea if Michelle and Matilda are even in Brooklyn at this time. She might be working.
If Jake does visit them, I'm almost certain there will be absolutely no pictures of it. At least not if he or Michelle have anything to say.

Anonymous said...

it's really difficult not to "speculate" about Jake's private life, but it always turns out to be a source of tension, it seems to me.

come on, anons, gimme an i.d., I love i.d.'s.

Anonymous said...

I had no idea that Reese had business at the UN. So it does explain why she is in NY. And it is a shame the timing sucks as far as seeing his sister and niece. My idea of him visiting michelle and matilda is that since he is her godfather and things have settled down a lot since Heath's death he could sneak away to Brooklyn or somewhere and meet up with them.

of course I would like it if there were photos, but in the same respect I hope there aren't and they could meet privately.

Hey, Trekfan! I know you always sign your posts.

And re speculatiom, seems to me that my own speculation that R and J might have bought property in Soho together might be painful to others, as are sometimes other speculations, to me. \

I agree, gimme pictures, I love pictures. (except when they seem overly invasive)

p.s. hello again. since Im not Maggie in Paris, I am doing the next best thing, putting tattoos of my name on the biceps of all my nekkid Jake pictures. awwwww. he loves me!

BirdGirl said...

Ahh the return of the "Grandpa sweater". Jake never disappoints does he?

I am happy to see him in NYC supporting his lady at the UN. What a guy. :)

Anonymous said...

No, Birdgirl, he always delivers - love the grandpa sweater. so glad he hangs on things we love!

Hi everybody! Just been out with Ruby having a lovely time with tapas, beer and wine (Nouskie, you were with us in spirit).

Thanks for all the comments and a big thanks to Pia for holding the fort - I owe you a big drink, just come over here and collect, yes? xx

Hi Trekfan - NYC must be such a temptation when you don't have a 9 to 5 job like us. Maybe he will see Michelle and Matilda while over there. He could well do :)

Hey Pia - I think Jake does have a place over there. I love Maggie's coat in those pics and Ramona's cape - gorgeous. I loved those pics :D

Hi TL - Jake misses me again! I'm sure he's sighing into his beer right now :D I know these pics of Ramona aren't for everyone but, as long as they're not too intrusive, I do love them and to see her grow. What a cutie. And I love the woollens. That's hysterical about Maggie and Paris!! If only... Ouch, did I say that?

Hey anons, thanks for the comments. It's very possible Jake is there to support Reese in her statement for Women's Day but otherwise who knows. What I do know is they went to great shops and restaurants.

Gotta agree, can we have some made up names? Just think of something funny and hot :D

Hey Bird Girl - good to see you. Knew you'd love the cardie :)

Pia! Jake loves you definitely :D

By the way, I've been told that some people today are moving between sites using other people's usernames. So please stay alert to this.

Good to see you, my friends :D

Anyone else disappointed by the absence of fisticuffs? :D

"By the way, I've been told that some people today are moving between sites using other people's usernames. So please stay alert to this."

That is truly cowardly. I suppose these are people who post using regular, on-going names at other sites. They would be embarrased to be caught saying/doing some of the things that are going on. Very sad.
I think some people have meotional issues. They are very sick. They are also scarey.

Ruby said...

Hi everyone.

Maggie could totally take Paris in a scrap I'm sure!! :D

Was nice to see you this evening WDW. Hope Mr WDW enjoyed his treat.

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Hi everyone! Been watching some Top Gear.

Hey anon - fisticuffs? Sounds good to me :D

Hi other anon, 20.00 - using other people's usernames is a bad thing and all sites will group together to try and stop this.

Ruby! Glad you got home OK. Thanks for the wonderful evening. Mr WDW says 'It's in the fridge' - I may have to eat it...

twistedlogic said...

Hi everyone! Been watching some Top Gear.
That reminds me of a story I read about Jeremy Clarkson introducing himself to Kate Moss at a party telling her he did Top Gear, only for her to ask if he had any on him that she could try:D Sorry, I know that's totally random...
How come you're not watching Rendition, anyway? Don't tell me you're bored with it already ;) Then again, it's gonna have to last us until we get new Jake in december so I suppose it's best to watch it sparingly and make it last:)

Anonymous said...

Hi all,

WDW, so glad you made it home safe and sound! I hope you are getting over your jetlag.

Jake in NYC...squee!!! I don't like them being hounded by the paps but I have been enjoying the pics and videos of Jake and Reese around town.

Love the Gyllenhaal women in Paris. They all look wonderful. I know pics of Ramona are questionable but she is adorable. I really hope, since Fashion Week is over, that they are headed back to the city so they can see Jake. It would be a bummer if Jake was finally back in New York and he could not see his mom, sister and niece.

Yeah I have had experience with others using my name. :( I only post here and at Gyllenbabble. If you see my name anywhere else it definitely isn't me.

Often in directors commentaries there is reference fo Moulin Rouge so Im watching it again, also because H and J both auditioned for this part given finally to Ewan M. Not fond of the film, this time, either, but I'll watch it through once, with commentary. Waiting in mailbox is early Heath Aussie film, Two Hands - Brian Brown, too, of whom I have been fond, once upon a time.

Hope Jake stays in NYC for awhile. I know you love him in LA WDW but I love him better in my home town. And glad to see both J and R properly dressed in blacks and greys. Lookin' good.

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Hi TL! I'm making it last - no seriously, I've been too sleepy - tomorrow is Rendition day :D

Hey Get Real! Good to see Jake in NYC, looking so good. It'd be good if he and Reese do meet up with Maggie and Ramona at some point.

Hi Pia - I do like Moulin Rouge but it'd have been something else with Jake and/or Heat in it. I think NYC suits Jake but he's a definite LA boy :D

Hey WDW....thanks for posting the lovely pics...and I must say I am thrilled...I finally have a great photo of Jake...short hair, clean shaven...and YES...I do believe I see the return of that fetching grey cardigan I love so much...Seeing the grey cardigan layered underneath the coat really made my evening..!!
One last thing...I thought perhaps Jake might be filming the space movie next..with the short hair and all..but I have been reading some things online that indicate he might be filming that political movie first...do you have any new info about this?
Hugs...from Michele

Waiting in mailbox is early Heath Aussie film, Two Hands

Hey Pia! I got the extended version of A Knight's Tale the other day but I can't bring myself to watch it atm :( Is Two Hands a gangster film or an I thinking of something else? Let us know if it's any good:)

WDW - you're too tired for Jake? That doesn't sound good! But then again, it's probably best to be fully alert whe you watch it - you don't want to miss anything;) Enjoy Rendition tomorrow :) I remember the original Rendition Day back in October - feels like years ago!

paulh said...

I love that picture of Maggie in a glamorous dark blue outfit. She has a wonderful figure. The people who only notice her face or hair should look further down. She could so easily have been a model...

(Actually, she sometimes *is* a model, but what I meant is that she might not have become an actress)

Anonymous said...

Hey Pia and Twisted Logic,

Just to let you know I've seen Two Hands. I absolutely loved it! Young Heath was fantastic. Without giving too much away, Heath is suppossed to deliver some money for Bryan Brown's gangster character....AND let's just say things go from there.

It really has some funny bits. Hope you guys like it!

"Strip club promoter Jimmy (Heath Ledger) lands in dangerous waters after botching a routine job for a gangster in this Aussie crime thriller tinged with inky comedy."

Whatever, TL, I'll let y'all know. Doesnt make me sad to watch Heath in films - interviews upset me, though. I think the Joker pictures posted yesterday here were lovely.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention how great Maggie looks. Thanks for the pics WDW.

For all you Brits, who are probably asleep, I am watching the big special on the Royal Family. I think it aired a while ago in the UK but it is airing here now with Barbara Walters narrating. I have to say I find it amazingly fascinating.

Re: A,P.C. in soho where J and R were shopping:

"There's a decidedly Euro-hipster appeal to the crisp, nicely cut slacks, jackets, and shirtdresses in this loftlike shop. The super-stiff denim, too. Standouts include unwashed denim pants, blazers, long-sleeve shirts, and cotton pants."

Love the jacket he's wearing in the evening! Looks kinda Euro-hipster to me.

Well at least the Brits are around and about at cocktail time EST Get Real.

agent_krycek said...

No, seriously, I need that coat Maggie is wearing, that combined with Reese's shoes from the Penelope premier and I'm set for Spring.

Ramona is a complete cutie, so like her Daddy.

WDW, have you finished watching the deleted scenes in Rendition??

OMG.. i just thought Jake's character would have been even more complex if they included that part where he questions his girlfriend's phonecalls.

Xenia said...

I love Jake in the grey grandpa cardie too! He's gorgeous in those pics!!

Thanks again WDW and welcome home.:)

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Morning everyone - this jetlag has turned me into a sleepyhead :( I'm enjoying the time off work though :)

Hi Michele - knew you'd be loving the cardie ;) I think from what I've seen and posted that Nailed could be next, but I would love it to be the Moon movie! But hatever movie it is, if Jake's going to look like this I'm happy. I ask so little from a movie - a good haircut :D

Hey TL - there's an extended Knight's Tale. I didn't know that. And no, I'm ashamed to say I still haven't seen Rendition's deleted scenes. I fel like I want to savour them and enjoy the commentary. I need to send Mr WDW off shopping or biking for a few hours.

Hi Paul - I think Maggie is so striking, with real style. I didn't realise though that she was so into clothes and designers.

Hi Amy - I've not seen Two Hands. Bryan Brown eh? I used to like him years ago.

Morning Pia - I'm the same, I got so much comfort from watching the Kinght's Tale and even Brokeback. I want to see I'm Not There again really badly. The Joker will be hard to watch though.

Hey Get Real :D I saw that documentary in the UK - and an episode of it in LA again - and I think it's fascinating. I'm glad you're enjoying it.

Morning Agent K - I'm loving that coat too, and I love that little crotcheted cape of Ramona's. She's gorgeous - she looks a lot like Peter I think.

Hi Winterbird - no, I haven't, sob, I'm a bad fan :( But I will this afternoon and let you know what I think :D

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Hey Xenia - we were posting at the same time! Ahh anther cardie lover. Thanks for the welcome home.

G'day everysweeetpeeps. Warmer, ice melting, but cold nights. good for sugaring.

good also for Sugarpuss in NYC, I hope. is there a euro-hipster version of rainwear?

Maggie's coat is SO ME! (in my dreams) Mag and Jake what a pair may their tribe increase!

Hi Anouska! Hope you're having a good day. No, that's not wrong :D Nice to see Naomi too.

I think Maggie's great dressed up, casual, naked, giving the finger to paps, pregnant, disheveled, whatever. wish she;d do another film with Jake!

paulh said...

I think it's fantastic that Maggie attended so many of her father's poetry readings.

It is said that Maggie is considered a fashion icon in New York City. Maybe she is becoming one in Paris, too.

In any event, the Gyllenhaals very likely have relatives living in the New York area. (Not that they would need to have relatives there in order to justify going to that city occasionally. I've certainly been there enough times without that justification. :-) )

It might be, though, that Jake could be filming in Connecticut next month, and could have work-related meetings with the people who will be shooting there. A lot of agents and other show-business people have offices in Manhattan.

Anonymous said...

Paul, was there a new Stephen poetry reading?

Anonymous said...

Hi Paul. Mama and Papa have said a few times they prefer NYC to L.A. and even though I agree that Jake is a CA kiddo, the parents and esp. Naomi seem to be "city" people, and I believe they have a home in the West Village. Also, Maggie lives in Bklyn. Jake is always aroumd and about in W Village, I have wondered, as I said, if he doesnt have a place of his own by now. Surely he's investing in real estate - wonder where his friend Chris is, these days.

Apologies if Im talking too much -working at home and needing some sunshine.

Reese was on the Today Show promoting International Women’s Day for Avon and UNIFEM, the United Nations Development Fund for Women, and to promote women’s empowerment and end violence against women. The announcement was made on March 4, 2008 at the Global Summit for a Better Tomorrow at the United Nations.

Hi Paul - I agree, if I had the time and the money, I'd be a very regular visitor to NYC too - actually, to quite a few cities of the US. But Jake has so many friends there, not to mention family, that he has mny incentives.

Hey Pia! I definitely see Jake as an LA lad while Maggie is very much of a NYC girl. They're both lucky though in that they can see the best that both have to offer. I'm with Jake on the California sunshine though :)

Thanks for the info, Anon.

Can I put out another plea - all comments which attack other sites or individuals will be deleted. Thanks :D
