Gwyneth Paltrow's Thanksgiving Dinner Advice

"Thanksgiving is, without a doubt, my favorite holiday. I love when everyone comes together and celebrates the idea of gratitude, something we all mean to do every day, but seem to lose sight of most of the time. I also love the cooking – the days of planning and chopping and basting. This year, I decided to work out three variations on the traditional meal: a big group, a small gathering and a cozy dinner for two.

[...] Mostly, make sure that no matter what type of meal you are having, you take a moment to think about how much you do have (health, love, friendship, passion, perspective, appreciation, intellect, reason, kindness) and reflect on how you can share more of it with others".

Ben Kingsley lauds Jake

"Sir Ben Kingsley has revealed what it is that makes Jake Gyllenhaal "so good" as the Prince of Persia in upcoming film, The Sands of Time.

Sir Ben said that Gyllenhall, who plays lead character Prince Dastan, brings a natural confidence that is perfect for the role.

The Donnie Darko star's character will face his nemesis Nizam, a nefarious and scheming monarch, played by Sir Ben.

The Sands of time is based on the hugely successful video-game series and also stars new Bond girl Gemma Arterton.

Jake & Reese's body language

"By wrapping his arm around her, "he's protecting her," body language expert Dr. Lillian Glass tells Us. "And she's letting him protect her."By placing his hand over her entire body (not just over her shoulder), Gyllenhaal shows that he's "very protective of her," Dr. Glass tells Us. "She's leaning into him, and he's taking care of his woman.""Her face is relaxed and smiling," Glass tells Us. "We've never really seen her without that tension on her face. She's usually in control. She never seems to be as free as she is now.""Her shoulder is up in a cutesy way, and she's smiling," Glass tells Us. "They're very comfortable with each other. He lets her be herself around him.""She's looking up at him with adoration," Glass tells Us. "He has a relaxing effect on her. You can see that he takes control - he's the one that has his hands clasped into hers. He brings out a real feminine side of her."

'Do I need men?” actress reese Witherspoon asks. “I don’t think it’s about needing men. It’s about love.”

“Everybody needs love,” she tells me. “Everyone deserves it.” “I want to be understood,” she says. “Even as a child, I didn’t feel like I was. I still see that part of myself that wants approval, and that’s a constant need.”

Since her divorce, Reese’s long friendship with actor Jake Gyllenhaal, 27, has garnered increasing media attention. A year ago, as she and Jake starred together in the film Rendition and her divorce was being finalized, the media speculation about their romance heated up. When Jake’s in Los Angeles, he reportedly stays at her home. Recently, Jake, Reese, and her kids have been spotted together in London and Paris, leading to questions of possible marriage.

“Family is all we have in life, but I don’t know how I feel about marriage,” she tells me. “Obviously, I’m not far enough out of being married to think about doing it again. You sort of reconstitute your family. You find a family, with people who come into your life for a reason".

Jake Gyllenhaal at Jon Stewart's Show

The girls of Iheartjake.com added some new pictures of Jake arriving The Jon Stewart Show on 28th February 2007. So let's remember that dotty interview to Jake by a portentous Jon Stewart!

"Jake Gyllenhaal and Jon Stewart play off each other well on The Daily Show on Wednesday night.

Jon kids with Jake about looking alike. “I look like you if I had been taking Dioxin,” Jon quipped.

Another one of my favorite quotes from the interview: “This year, Oscars. No Jake Gyllenhaal, no Jon Stewart. It’s like they didn’t even have the Oscars this year.”

Jon closed the interview mentioning that Jake played the kid Danny Robbins in Billy Crystal’s western movie City Slickers in 1991 (Jake was 11).

“Technically, Brokeback Mountain was not your first gay cowboy picture.” Source: Justjared.buzznet.com
