The Shirt - aka Jake Gyllenhaal's Mr. Darcy Moment

You know how a particular picture of your fave (or one of) sticks in your memory more than most of the others?  Well, this paparazzi pic of Jake is one of those.  

Back on December 6, 2006, Jake was papped at a place called Orso's in Los Angeles and whether it was the sunlight or the paps' flash, something caused that Whoa! moment.  In two of the four total pictures, the sky looks overcast. But hard to say what the mysterious X factor was. Perhaps it was just the man himself. Anyway, no further words necessary. 

Aesthetic post!   Jake "Mr. Darcy" Gyllenhaal

Boy do I miss the days when Jake dressed for his fans.

Hey Destiny! This picture brings back the memories, doesn't it? I wasn't following him at that time (didn't even know who he was yet) so I didn't see this picture until a few years later.

I think Jake was on his way to lunch to meet somebody he deemed worthy of that shirt and he was going to try to drive crazy. LOL! Notice the little gift bag and there were only four pictures in this folder, so that seems to indicate this was not an intended photo op. And the other two pictures are just of the side of Jake's head so that would seem to be the Bat signal indicating the presence of a male dining companion. Since 2006 gave us the famous Laker pics and 2007 was when Jake and Austin got married and had Baby Tile #1, I'm going to put down a few of my Nabisco Premium mini crackers that Austin was the beneficiary of that shirt.

LOL!
