Some very brief behind the scenes footage of the "Blame It" video. Predictably but sadly, it's heavy on the Jamie Foxx and light on the Jake Gyllenhaal. Maybe there's more in a vault somewhere. The same place where they are keeping Nailed, perhaps.
Behind the scenes shots of a different kind - a couple of Coachella snaps. Backstage for Fleet Foxes and then getting some grub:
Found a few more pictures of Jake Gyllenhaal from Coachella, prompting a little retrospective. Though Jake obviously loves being in front of a camera, he's more than happy to take his place behind the scenes - or on the side:
First from the Fleet Foxes show:
Then more from Jenny Lewis:
In 2006, Jake went to ACL and grooved to Ray LaMontagne - note, you might want to turn the sound down!
If you just want to see Jake and Lance dance:
There's also a tiny glimpse of Jake on this video.
Some shots of Jake around ACL and environs:
With John Mayer
At Gnarls Barkley
With the devil, apparently
Tooling around
And in 2005, Jake dropped by to watch his friends in Maroon 5 perform at theNow and Zen festin San Francisco:
Back in front of the camera: Spinal Tap member Harry Shearer revealsthat Jake owes his showbiz career to the band, since he made an appearance in a trailerfor "This Is Spinal Tap." Can you spot him?
Finally, the inimitable Stephanie at IHJ has asked for donations to help keep the site running:

Premiere has a story on Stars Who Die The Most in their movies. But there is a glaring omission: Jake Gyllenhaal.
Three of Jake's characters have met an untimely fate - more than both Will Smith and Harrison Ford who are at the bottom of the list. Jake's percentage of character deaths is higher than most people on the list.
More importantly, each character is unique and truly memorable, despite Premiere's amnesia. But we remember...
Donnie Darko
Holden Worther
Jack Twist
Let's hope Jake's next three characters have a happier fate. The Coachella tidbits continue. You had to wonder if Reese minded Jake looking at his old girlfriend so wistfully...
Jake Gyllenhaal (omg HOT) and Reese Witherspoon were side stage watching the whole time. Seriously, they were the most adorable freaking couple. They were both singing along to some of the songs. I got a June Carter Cash moment watching Reese rock out to Jack Killed Mom. And when Jenny slowed it down, she put her arms around his waist and they looked so happy it made me smile.
Thanks to the blogger and youtuber for the reports.
Lots of fun pictures today. Check back later and we'll have some fun with Jake Gyllenhaal at Coachella. But I couldn't resist posting these - Jake and Reese stageside for Jenny Lewis:
(The last one is at the Fleet Foxes show.)
Too many pictures to sort through at this late hour - I don't know how Stephanie does it! But we'll have more later today.
