Kirsten and Scarlett

"Hollywood actress SCARLETT JOHANSSON is looking for love and has reportedly asked to be set up with newly single star JAKE GYLLENHAAL.

The LOST IN TRANSLATION star has met Gyllenhaal a few times, and friends say that the pair are perfectly matched.

Now she has asked her representatives to organise her a date with the actor - who recently ended his long-term relationship with actress KIRSTEN DUNST.

A pal says, "He's a little younger than her usual type, but they really clicked.

"They both grew up in dynamic and creative families and Jake has an old head on young shoulders, just like her."

Johansson, who is rumoured to have had a fling with BENICIO DEL TORO at last year's Oscars, makes no secret of the fact that she is looking for love.

She recently said, "I'm a girl in the prime of my life and I'd like to celebrate that with someone.

"The thing is, I'd definitely like to be in a relationship with the right person. That's why I'm looking." Source: Contactmusic.com

I know these are 2 years ago news, but I wondered if a relationship between the sexiest chick in Hollywood and Jake would have worked out or not.

Young Date

"Palm Desert, CA (FV Newswire) - In celebration of National Singles Week, September 17-23, It’s Just Lunch, the premier dating service for busy professionals, has released statistics from its Annual Report on Dating about singles, dating and age. According to a survey of 3,571 singles 76% of women date men that are at least 5 years older than them, while 80% of men date women that are at least 5 years younger than them.

“A lot of women that date older men are looking for stability and maturity,” said Alana Beyer, Vice President of It’s Just Lunch. “They want someone that is settled in their career, is a good care-taker and is serious about finding a significant other. Regardless of whether singles are dating someone older or younger 67% think 1-5 years is a practical age difference between couples.”

Of the 18% of men who prefer to date women that are older, 6% admit to having dated a single, older friend of their parents. When asked if they could date an older celebrity, 34% of men said their celebrity of choice would be Annette Benning, another 22% chose Diane Keaton. 62% of women said they would date Harrison Ford.

Just beautiful friends

"If Reese Witherspoon wants to quash rumors of an on-set romance with co-star Jake Gyllenhaal, she should probably stop being photographed looking like his favorite cowgirl. Reese's reps deny any hanky-panky between the two, now in Los Angeles filming their new thriller, "Rendition." As the photos show, Reese is pregnant in the film." [...] Source: Tmz

Happy birthday to Maggie!

Maggie has blown her cake candles today when she turned 29. Happy Birthday from Jake Weird!

Serious Jake

Rendition & Anniversary

Pictures from IHJ of Jake and last one with Reese Witherspoon on their next film "Rendition" set.

"Reese Witherspoon and Jake, one of the movie industry's most eligible bachelors, are set to get together at the end of this month to film the CIA thriller Rendition.

Reese's friends predict the two may simply be unable to resist each other. Jake has a determined track record of seducing his female leads, and career-conscious Reese knows a hot new leading man is just what she needs.
"They're both young, talented and magical. I'm sure sparks will fly," says Clifford Streit, the producer of Reese's hit film American Psycho.

Reese's friends say Jake is perfect for the actress — because he's the opposite of Ryan.
"Jake is just the type of guy Reese needs round right now. It's going to be a huge boost for her ego, spending time with someone who shares so many of her values," says an insider.

Unlike the party-hard Ryan, Jake is a private man who shies away from the spectacle of Hollywood. And, like Reese, he loves to spend time at home, walking his dogs and staying in shape.
"Jake is everything Ryan isn't — he's grounded, he's a family man, he loathes the party scene and, most important, he's a one-woman guy," says an insider. Adds the source, "Jake is ripe for the picking. He hasn't had a serious relationship since splitting with Kirsten Dunst two years ago. He has a history of romancing his beautiful co-stars. When he makes eyes at Reese, you can bet there'll be fireworks."

Picking up the pieces after the end of her seven-year marriage, Reese is determined to handle her divorce with dignity – with or without a new man on her arm. [...] Source: The Bosh
