The odds open at 3-to-1 that Jake Gyllenhaal's next paparazzi kiss is with the 7-time Tour de France winner.
The first thing to note in all this is that Lance Armstrong (34), Matthew McConaughey (36) and Jake Gyllenhaal (25) are really good friends and bike buddies, and have been for years.…

Because I don't know the words to "It's Not Easy Being Green," Jet?

You know, somehow I suspected that...

It's widely speculated here in Austin that Matthew McConaughey is gay, but Lance Armstrong who's also an Austinite is generally believed to be straight. As for Gyllenhall, who the hell of either gender would want to have sex with him unless it ended terminally. He's one seriously irritating dude.

Daaaaave, the rumors were started by the three of them as a publicity stunt to promote the movie! No one actually believe's Lance is gay, though there are those of us who do fantasize (especially after seeing that photo of him and Matthew).
As for Jake GyllenHaal, different strokes for different folks...
...maybe I should rephrase that...

The rumors of Matthew go waaay back before anyone even thought of this movie.

Okay, someone's not paying attention here, and it might be me. Matthew isn't in the planned movie, he's just shacking up with "Straight" Lance Armstrong and biking around in tight spandex with Jake and Lance.
I've always thought Matt was gay-he's waaaaay to pretty to be straight, after all it was a toss up as to who was the beard between Jodie Foster and Matt during "Contact"
Lance may be straight, but many of us wish he wasn't, and who knows walking around dressed like that in Matthew's beach house....
32 - Dave Nalle
Matt does smoke a prodigious amount of weed, that at least is a given.

Maybe he got Lanc stoned and took advantage, that's explain all the shopping trips to the market.

"It's widely speculated here in Austin that Matthew McConaughey is gay"
Well how gay of them!
35 - chantal
gay or not, that picture of Lance and Matt is HOT!
36 - ME
Sorry but I don't think Jake is playing with his fanbase with stupid rumors. To place all the extra gossip on Jake is unfair and immature. Jake didn't write the ESPY jokes and he didn't say them either, Lance did. Lance and Matt are staying at the same beach house. And I am sure Lance and Matt have their own PR and reasons for doing all this, so it isn't all Jake.
Dave, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but I think Jake is great and a very talented actor.

Chantal, you don't have to tell me! I tried to blow it up to use as part of my wallpaper collage, but it was done obviously with a telephoto lense and that's why the image is so small. Right now I'm using the BlogCritic's Blimp as my wall paper-alas
Carus deus, quis have ego commissio?

Me# it's to promote a movie, as for whether or not Lance and Matt are playing along, look again at the movie clip!
Yes Jake is definately hot.
Don't get hot under the collar, it's just three good friends having a lot of fun.
boys will be boys

Me#36 you make it sound like Gyllenhaal was being persecuted or something? it was just three friends having fun!

Dave 32 I wish he's share some with my about now...
41 - Jet in Columbus
Just how short IS the attention span on this website?
42 - Jet in Columbus
So... Foreign testosterone was found in Landis... I hope it wasn't Gyllenhaal's... or Lance's.
43 - Jet in Columbus
Wow, that wasn't even "5-seconds of fame" how soon everyone gets bored!
44 - Jet in Columbus
Just ignore me, I'm just trying to get attention... and not succeeding.
45 - ltnbrn
Who cares if these 3 are gay or not? It's highly unlikely that those who hope they are would ever get close enough to find out anyway! The same is true for those who hope they're straight. It's kind of sad that you all have spent time speculating about this.
46 - Jet in Columbus
#45-Duh! this is an article about a publicity stunt concerning an upcoming movie-not whether the subjects are straight or not?
Are you commenting on the article or the comments on the article?
47 - Jet in Columbus
This is about the casting of a movie about Lance Armstrong-not the principle's sexuality-Sheesh!!!
48 - the Queen
Whoever "Dave" is on here. . .you must have spent the last several years in a cave if you can't imagine anyone who'd want to have sex with Jake Gyllenhaal because I assure there are thousands of women out there who do! I'll bet there are lots more women craving his body than yours--you must be jealous.
49 - Jet in Columbus
Uh Queen, all viewpoints are welcome here. One man's 10 is another man's 2 dearie!
50 - Jet in Columbus
Well, I gotta admit the "do you love yourself" bullshit is better than "I've got nothing to do today, I'm so bored crap"
sigh

I'm beginning to wonder-Lance & Matt are featured together in this week's NEWSWEEK at a Miami hot-spot wearing matching outfits? from all reports they're still living together at Matt's malibu beach house too??????
53 - Jet in Columbus
Actually if you check out the photo on this article they don't make a bad looking couple!

Forgive me if I missed something over the last half a year or so, but did Armstrong come out of the closet? Last I remember, he was dating Crow. Someone please shed some light for me! Thanks
57 - Jet in Columbus
Bowler, as much as I appreciate you reading and dropping a line, did you read the article?
It says...
Despite that, Jake seems to be playing with his fans, using his success from Brokeback Mountain to get advance publicity and maybe start some very interesting gay 3-way romantic rumors. What’s even more surprising is that his two best pals Armstrong and McConaughey seem to be playing along!
I only wish he'd come out of the closet...he's a babe...

58 - Jet in Columbus
Gyllenhaal told the audience that he wanted to do something to thank fans of his movie "Brokeback Mountain." So he put on a black wig, ripped off his clothes to reveal a long, spangled black dress and sang Effie's big song from "Dreamgirls," "And I'm Telling You, I'm Not Going."
Gyllenhaal really got into it, singing in a falsetto and showing off his biceps in his sleeveless gown.
The audience went nuts, including the two cast members dressed as cowboys.

WHAT IS WITH ALL THE DANCING NUDE IN FRONT OF A GUY WHILE PLAYING WITH HIS BONGO ? WE NEED TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THE SPECTATOR ! IS HE GAY ? THEN WE HAVE A BETTER IDEA OF WHAT WAS REALLY HAPPINING . . NEVER HEARD WHO HE WAS---

If you are talking about the incodent with Matt, I wonder the same thing myself. There are many rumors.
Thanks for dropping a line here

Lance Armstrong is ready to swear climb back on the bike and win an eighth Tour de France. Three years after retiring, the 36-year-old says he'll return to competition and the Tour de France in 2009, giving up relaxed days of a few beers and Tex-Mex food for a self-described monk's life of disciplined training and punishing races.
In a formal statement Armstrong called his comeback an attempt to raise global awareness in his fight against cancer. Just as likely, it's also about his relentless desire to compete and win, especially at the Tour, the race he dominated with a record seven titles from 1999-2005.
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) â€"

Okay it's either the famous nude photo of Lance on a bike on my own blog with new photos that's leading people here to this 4-year-old article at BC or it's the latest controversy over him being accused of doping. I'm not sure which, but welcome all to all my new mystery google search readers both here and at my site!?!
A combined 40 just today!
63 - Jet Gardner
...The Amaury Sport Organization, which runs the Tour, told The Associated Press that it would not comment until it had heard more from the International Cycling Union and USADA.
In walking away, the 40-year-old Armstrong cited a familiar defense: he has never tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs. "I know who won those seven Tours," Armstrong said in his statement. "The toughest event in the world where the strongest man wins. Nobody can ever change that. Especially Travis Tygart."
Armstrong previously was the subject of a federal investigation into whether he committed fraud while on the U.S. Postal Service team, not whether he doped. That investigation was stopped earlier this year with no charges filed. USADA then brought its own non-criminal case against Armstrong, citing its authority to protect the integrity of sports as authorized by Congress.
Earlier Friday, Nike supported Armstrong.
"Lance has stated his innocence and has been unwavering on this position," the company said in a statement. "Nike plans to continue to support Lance and the Lance Armstrong Foundation, a foundation that Lance created to serve cancer survivors."
Team manager Johan Bruyneel, who led Armstrong to all seven tour titles and also faces doping sanctions, posted a statement on his website: "Today, I'm disappointed for Lance and for cycling in general that things have reached a stage where Lance feels that he has had enough and is no longer willing to participate in USADA's campaign against him. Lance has never withdrawn from a fair fight in his life so his decision today underlines what an unjust process this has been.
"I hope that it will soon be determined that the case that USADA initiated against me should never have gotten as far as it has. Due to the sensitive nature of legal proceedings, I have been advised that it would be inappropriate for me to comment further at this stage."

am curious if Lance the cheating bully (or is that bullying cheater?) still Clavos' hero?
67 - Jet Gardner
You mean like rats leaving a sinking ship?
I believe Lance when he claims he was only trying to level the playing field when he found that most of his major competitors were doping too.
That doesn't excuse his actions, but it does go toward motivation.
I still support him.
