*** Emergency Post *** Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway's sunny Sydney press conference. Jake: 'I'm kind of a foodie'

As the Australian premiere for Love and Other Drugs gets ready to kick off in Sydney, an Emergency Post has been necessitated by the stunning and sunny photographs of Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway at the press conference and photocall today. [At least I think it was today - one half of me is 11 hours ahead of the other half, causing some confusion and much need for coffee.] Please note how I'm not mentioning the peek of chesthair.


You can see video of Jake and Anne's arrival in Sydney here.


At the press conference, Jake talked about his Sydney Foodie day: '"I tried to eat my way around Sydney. I'm kind of a foodie and it was really, really incredible food," Gyllenhaal said, scoffing at rumours he'd gone for a surf on Bondi Beach. "I went to some really wonderful restaurants and sat out in the sun and ran into people who I had no idea were in Sydney and had a wonderful time. The only other city I know in the world that's like that - but without the beautiful beaches - is New York City, where I run into people all the time."' Updated to add that it looks like the people Jake ran in to were none other than Bono and The Edge!


There is more from the press conference here.


There was also this announcement from Jake: 'I can safely say I have never tried Viagra.' This was probably in reaction to be asked a certain question for the 954th time.


I can't finish this Emergency Post without a shout out to the Gyllenhaal retoucher!


Many thanks to IHJ for the lovely sunny pictures! There are lots more there. Back later!

Wow, sunny Australia! Reminds me of those gorgeous pics from Cannes...

Jake seems to continue his "dark shirt tour" ;)

Thanks for the post and pics :)

Love the pics! Love the post! Thanks for the update, WDW>
And the difference between working with Hathaway on this Edward Zwick film and Brokeback Mountain, where he played her gay husband? "This time I got to be into her."
Does Gyllenspeak get any better than that?! This has just made my day! I've got to stop ROTFL or I'll never get any work done...

His unbuttoned buttons always drive me crazy. Delicious! And Anne looks very beautiful.

Is anyone else reminded of October Sky looking at his new haircut? Especially in the 2nd photo in the post.

By the way, do you have a confession to make, WDW? The 'Jake talked' link about the press conference is leading me back to WDW... Any secret meeting with J&A that we should know about?! :-P

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Hello! Just got in and trying to dethaw... Frozen!

Sorry about the wrong link, I don't know how that happened. I've corrected it and added another link which says that Jake met up with Bono and The Edge!

Hi HVV!

Thanks Karmentxu :) I have to do a red carpet post now.

Hey Winterbird - they remind me of sunny Cannes too! I love Jake in sunshine - well, In love him in all weathers but he does suit the sun.

That made me laugh too, Susan!! I do wonder sometimes if he knows what he says!

Hi there Linda!

Thanks for the links, Mermon :) I have a few saved for the red carpet post. I love how Sydney went so crazy for Jake and Anne!

Hey Lady Ekster! Ahhh the shirt - the buttons... I know, my linkage was terrible! Fixed now :D

And happy birthday Carol! xx

Sydney looks exactly like Buenos Aires today: not a cloud in the sky. ;-)

Love Jake's haircut. And Annie's dress in the photocall? Insanely cute. :-)

I will wait for the new post today to comment more. But from what I read, Jake was as charming as ever. Not a surprise, but it's always fun to read about people melting around him. He deserves adoration. He's got mine completely. :-D

I checked the weather in Sydney. GASP! it's like 72 (21) there.

Here it's like 33F (1C) I wonder how fast I can get to Sydney.

Hi Alejandra and Sweetpea! I missed your comments here. It's so cold here too - way below freezing - I love to see Jake in the sun :)
