Jake Gyllenhaal photographed in the Jardin Majorelle

A sure way to tell that I'm missing Jake very much is that I turn to that cure-all icecream, and now, thanks to Heat magazine (and Chris of Edinburgh), we can see that Jake must be missing us too. For here is Jake Gyllenhaal in the beautiful Jardin Majorelle in Marrakech, with friends, eating a green icecream (pistachio? Mint chocolate chip?). Jake was spotted in the Gardens on August 24, a report on which you can read here. Although this picture was taken three weeks ago, it is great to see Jake looking well, enjoying the colourful sites of Morocco.


A huge thank you and hug to my work friend who cut this out for me and left it on my keyboard for me to find when I came back from a lunchtime stroll. I have every confidence that her conversion is imminent.

Me three! He looks wonderful. The knee and thigh . . . among other things. Good to see a pic. :)

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Ahem, I noticed the knee and thigh too... Hi anon! Looking so bronzed.

Just so good to see Jake! Sigh :)

sheba said...

Yep, no fake tan there ;D Thanks for the new pic WDW. He's got that annoyed, slow shake of the head, pursed-lip look. Sorry baby Jake that your private moment was invaded but we missed you so and I love the pic so I'll forgive and thank Chris for this. I've almost forgiven you WDW for the 'nose pick' pic. Just never let it happen again :DD

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Hi Sheba :) Jake just looks to me like he has his mouth full... all this while without any pap pics, I don't think Jake would begrudge us one photo. I'm so glad we have it - made my day. The nose pic is one of my fave pics!

paulh said...

Although I don't find the nose picking picture offensive, I feel sorry that Jake couldn't be left alone at such a time--an embarassing moment like that!

Thank you so much for the scan WDW! I knew you'd come through for us. You're the best!

I'm happy to finally see something 'new'. It's been a while. Jake looks good. <3

Thanks so much Wet Dark. It's great to see Jake looking so good. I was beginning to get major withdrawal symptoms!!!

You've made my day :)

"all this while without any pap pics, I don't think Jake would begrudge us one photo. I'm so glad we have it - made my day."

Yeah, me too. Isn't it great that we're converting people to Gyllenhaalism one picture or movie at a time. Haha on the pic pic, but seriously I can't bear to look at it though, I'm a little squeemish.

He looks even better than that yummy ice-cream... mmmmmmn..... Jake, ice-cream and chocolate sauce.. That blonde looks like his agent - I've seen her before - can't remember where though.

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Hi Paul :D I suppose it could've been worse...

Hey Stephanie! I'll always do all I can to get British stuff up quickly and send it over to you at IHJ. Least I can do with all the fab stuff you put up for us from the other side of the pond! It is so, so great to see Jake again, even if it's not brand new. Just brilliant :D I have been grinning all afternoon! Jake looks so good :P

Welcome, Carol! Thank you so much for posting. I think this picture saved me from a nasty rash, my withdrawal symptoms have been getting so bad. IT made my day too, and I'm really glad to see you here :)

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Hi Sheba! Posting at the same time :D Both the guy and the gal look familiar to me and I can't put my finger on it... it's annoying me! I'm not sure that is the same blonde as the assistant, hmmm, have to have another look. That guy really does look familiar to me.

Jake and ice cream - what a winning combination! Just to need to throw some wine into the mix :)

They are production assistants from Pop, Jake reportedly hung with the crew while filming there.

The blonde looks like Mariel Hemmingway but it's not her.
The dude is part of the production crew as is the blonde.

Jake should be on his way home if he isn't there already.

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Thanks Fez (Cool name, by the way) :D I was wondering if that was the same guy who is walking behind Jake in the Aug 11 pics - similar hat. I really hope we see Jake soon :D

Zodiac said...

Thanks WDW:) Too much hair, I can't see his face. What a mane you've grown, Jacob:)

Miss you...

Anonymous said...

Too much hair.

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Hey Zodiac! Lion Jake :D I miss Jake too...

Hi Pia - I'd much, much, much rather have Jake with hair than no Jake at all :) I want a better look.

Zodiac said...

Almost forgot, I've sent you an email, WDW.

*good girl* said...

Hi WDW, havent been posting in a while but always had a daily check of your posts ;)
It's really good to finally see a pic of Jake again ;) What a PoP he is, looking great...
We're really missing you Jake, please have ice-cream more often!!

thank you WDW for this ;) what a wonderful work friend you have, wish mine did me such suprpises too!

Wet Dark and Wild said...

ooh goodie :D Thanks, Zodiac. Always love to hear from you. I'm behind on emails tonight as I'm sitting here eating icecream - it's called Doing a Jake! (But without the Moroccan sunshine)

Good to see you Good Girl! Been ages :D Glad to hear you've been reading. I just hope it's not that long before ano9ther picture. Fingers crossed, eh? And I always knew icecream was good for me! My work pal is great, she listens to me going on about Jake and always looks out for pics of him in the magazines to give me. I've even caught her looking at WDW! Come back again soon :)

How'd we know it's ice cream, and not a piece of green melon or sorbet? If Jake's not allowed to eat a choc chip cookee (T&L lunch) he wouldnt be allowed to eat ice cream.

O I guess "Chris" knows - having been on the scene. Still - Im not sure ice cream is the consolation of choice for those whose fame is partly their hot bods.

Are you listening WDW?

Mmmmmmm . . . he looks more delicious than any ice cream, with his tan and those legs. I hope we are going to get more than one pic? ;)

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Morning everyone! I'm so happy to have a pic of Jake to look at today :D

Hi Pia! I was asleep! The photographer and I think it's icecream. Jake got the bod and his reward is to get the occasional bowl of icecream while enjoying the sites :D Speaking as someone with 'an icecream problem' myself, I feel qualified to identify the substance ;D

Morning anon! That bronzed muscly bod.... I suppose it's good his companions are eating icecream too - it'll bring their temperatures down! I hope we get more very much too.

Have a great day everyone!

Good to see Jake finally!!!

Yeah the hair is long but it is for the movie so I am sure it will be cut as soon as it is over.

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Morning Get Real! I bet the hair is cut within five nanoseconds of the movie wrapping (slight exaggeration, perhaps, but maybe not :D) I do hope we get to see Jake out about first in the US and in the UK before he does finish so that we can get a better look.

Hope you have a good day :D

paulh said...

For you, WDW, I'd do just about anything. No Moroccan sunshine? No problem, I've just mailed a box of it to you. You should get it within three to four years. ;-)

I wonder what a 7th century persian prince would think of pistachio ice cream?

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Paul! What a lovely comment - thank you :D Although I think 4 to 5 years is a bit much. I may have freezed to bits by then. I reckon, given the chance, a 7th-century Persian prince would have lept (using parkour techniques no doubt) at the chance of a bit of pistachio ice cream :)
