Jamie and Jake together again - the premiere of the Blame It video

And now, at last, here is the video to Jamie Foxx's Blame It, featuring one very cool Jake Gyllenhaal. Of course, while in my opinion, the video features too much man with a panda head and not enough Jake, it's good to see Jake in this kind of company, red lights and all. Next time I'll watch it with the sound on... (only kidding!).



Thanks to IHJ for some rather lovely screencaps...

Morning everyone! Great to see this at last :D Have a good day!

Uli said...

Good morning!
I don't know what Jamie Foxx was thinking! Did he think that we wanted to see him in that video?? Well, Jamie, I hate to break it to you, but: No, we actually didn't want to see you! And neither that stupid Panda mascot!
Definitely too little Jake in the video!
I have to disagree about Jake's coolness in the video, though... LOL, I think in contrast to all the guys who were sooooo cool, he was just his cute self! :D :D

Um, the next times I will definitely watch the video without sound, though... Sorry again, Jamie... ;) :D :D

Have a good day everyone!!

At last! :D

Not so keen on Jamie's music and videos featuring lots of unauthorized females shaking their derrieres but cool sexy Jake is a sight for sore eyes. Never enough, though. :)

A good day to everybody.:)

My word is facts, not a bad word. :)

I can see I need to come here way more often. I didn't even know about this video. Even though I'm not into this type of music, I'm glad I got to see the video.

Thanks WDW! :)

Hi Uli! Oh you're so right! Anyone would think it was a Jamie Foxx video! I love seeing Jake get out of the car. But I need more of him schmoosing with the booze in the bar. I have to own up to liking the song though. But better if Jake were singing it and doing the whole vid. Love seeing Big Sam!

Hey Xenia :D Wouldn't have minded seeing sexy, cool Jake on that dancefloor! That's a good word - mine is vanclofi, which means what exactly?

Hey Teri! Well, I'm glad you're here now :D Good to see you.

Have a good day everyone!

Ahhh..this is what I've been waiting for. Jake Cool. and Cute.

Monica said...

Good morning, babblers!

It is a good clip!
The initial scene is perfect!:P
Jake is so HOT!
I also expected more scenes of Jake and the others.

Anna said...

Ooooh! In those caps the hat actually looks good. Need to go home so I can see the vid too. Do you think my boss will accept "jake-vid-watching" as a legit reason for leaving early?

That's it???!!! My god what a gross underutilization (is that a word?)of a perfectly sexy Jake! Such a waste! I was hoping for a lot more but Jake did look really good. I watched the video with the sound off (I'm still doing this from work but should soon have internet at home, yay!). Would having the sound on help me understand what that weird panda was doing there? I bet not.

Have a good day everyone!

Hi TDigs! Cool and Cute - sigh :D

Morning Monica :) I wanted much more too but I'll settle for what I get, I suppose...

Hi Anna - I think it would be entirely unreasonable for your boss not to take that as an excuse - has he not eyes to see?

Hey Olympia! Ooh I laughed at that! It drives me mad when directors don't use Jake enough. Much as I love David Fincher I definitely wanted more Jake in the middle section of Zodiac. Gavin Hood made up for long scenes without Jake by at least getting him to take his shirt off :D That panda was so overutilised!!

Hope everyone's having a good day!

Jake's never stopped amazing me. The way he walked out of the car, and the way he smiled... How can a guy be cool, sexy and cute at the same time? I don't think Jake appeared more than 1 minute but I know I OD'ed over Jake-ness :))

And really, I feel bad for Jamie Foxx. It's his video, but all we've got to talk about is Jake this, Jake that. God, I watched it for over 10 times and still, I hardly remember the music :)) And I swear I'm watching it now *lol*

He looks so freaking hot in this video! (Although, agreed, not enough Jake). Oh that look...that look he gives with his hat pulled down a bit and his heavy lidded eyes. Special thanks to S for capturing and posting on IHJ as now I am alternately looking at that picture and the video and getting nothing else done today! *feels lightheaded*

Hi to everyone!

Ooh, great comment, Nezuko - you put it so well. Just Jake getting out of that car - the way he does -there's noone like him. I've just been watching it properly, now I'm home, and I do like this song, especially as now I associate it with Jake. I wouldn't feel too sorry for Jamie, he wanted to bring us all in like this :D

Hey Lightheaded BBMISwear! Jake is so sexy in these caps, getting out of the car and then again in the bar giving the girl The Look. I just wished we'd have had more but then Jamie would have felt jealous! Could have done without Pandahead though... Hope things are good with you!

Hmm, my word is empathent :)

Awww... finally watch it in full :) Thanks for posting this!

I think in total Jake has about, mmm... 5 seconds or screen time? *g* I love the bit where he just steps out of the car! I agree with Uli, I think Jake looks cute and sweet in the video, it looks like he couldn't help but smile.

I am not too sure about the actual song though! Sorry, jamie.

Heh, I agree totally with you Winterbird. Jake looks, hot, sexy and adorable at the same time, lol.

He was rocking it even if he was only in it for a few seconds. Definitely WDW, we needed more Jake, less panda guy!

The song, well it's sort of catchy.

Love seeing Jake with all those guys.

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Hi Winterbird :D Ahh, but just look at those 5 seconds... I think the song's a grower :D

Hey Get Real - too right about Pandaguy - I've always had doubts about those creatures. I would've loved to have seen Jake dance, but it's great seeing him in such company.

Hope you're all having a good evening - Friday tomorrow :)

OMG!!!! Very cool and Jake is smokin!

Wet Dark and Wild said...

YES! Hi Anon :D

Zodiac said...

Jake is smoking hot but there is so little of him :(

*pouts*

Wet Dark and Wild said...

I know, Zodiac, Jamie is playing with us.... sob...

JoeAnn said...

Possible new project on the horizon for Jake? Thanks to Lena, over on at DC, giving the heads-up on this one. What do you think-- Jake and Jim Carrey in a musical---?

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Hi JoeAnn! I don't what I think about this particular musical, but I certainly would absolutely love to see Jake up there singing! And I can imagine the interaction with Carrey could be great! I wonder what this means for the Namath project...

Have a great day everyone! Wonderful to start a day with Jake news!!
