And I believe him. I’m not sure why or where the Jake Gyllenhaal is gay theory came about…surely it’s not because he played a gay cowboy one time? We all aren’t that gullible are we? Maybe…but I’m pretty sure that rumor was around way before Brokeback Mountain.

His BFF Adam Levine says he’s sick of it all…and assures us that Jake is straight as an arrow.

He told Out Magazine:

“Will everyone stop thinking that dude is gay? Seriously guys. How immature is it of the media to perceive this guy — it has to be because of Brokeback, right? I’ve known this dude forever. He’s one of my oldest friends, and it’s very weird that they have this — it’s very immature and infantile the way they treat his whole situation. If him hanging out with his bros means he’s gay, it’s like further perpetuating that weird homophobia that exists in our culture, which is just stupid. So, yeah, he’s my buddy. I fuckin’ love the guy.”

There ya go. Case closed. Now can we get an explanation as to why he let his BFF let this picture get released? It certainly doesn’t help dispel the gay rumor.

At least according to Hollywood gossip Janet Charlton.

Janet says that everybody needs to stop calling him Jake Gayllenhaal or Toothy Tile, because he prefers a bong to a penis any day. In fact, she says he is such a pot head that his love of the herb is what led to his break-up with Reese Witherspoon. She wasn’t a beard..she was a prude.

“At last the truth comes out. An acquaintance of Reese and Jake acknowledges that they were very smitten with each other for quite awhile and seemed perfectly matched. Unfortunately, Jake had a habit that Reese could not live with, and he wouldn’t give it up. He smoked way too much. And we’re not talking nicotine here. Not only did it rub Reese the wrong way, but she worried about her children being exposed to his bad habits. So, regretfully, she moved on. Note: those of you who insist that Jake is gay are NUTS.”
