Jake Gyllenhaal, Sir Ian McKellen, a Jellyfish and the Queen
Madness at the BAFTAs.
In one of the strangest red carpet moments I've seen to date, Jake Gyllenhaal reenacts getting stung by a jellyfish and encourages Sir Ian McKellen to urinate on him. Soon the Queen arrives however, and decorum is demanded.
Can we get that Ruby Wax to interview for the Oscars?

..and when she said "the Queen", was she referring to Jake or Ian?

Ive loved Ruby Wax since she was in that mediocre follow up to Rocky Horror Picture Show; "Shock Treatment"

When I first started watching the video I thought it was Liza Minnelli...
How awesome would that be?
Liza, Jake G., Sir Ian, and The Queen.

Oh dear, pity it was Ian & not Daniel Craig about.

Oh which reminds me, was Sir Ian Jake's "date" this year or did his publicist beard him once again?
Posted by: zabadak | Feb 14, 2007 3:06:58 PM
It just wasn't funny to me.

zabadak, Jake has not brought a date to any awards shows since he was with Kirsten, so he has not "bearded" with anyone. He was at the Baftas with a female publicist from reports of people who where there.

Ha! That was wild. Love Jake and Sir Ian together. Plus Helen Mirren is priceless.

I'm a big fan of Ruby. Her interview/variety shows on the BBC in the early 90s (The Full Wax etc) were hilarious and it's criminal that they're not available on DVD. Luckily I have VHS off-air tapes of some segments, especially those which relaunched Joanna Lumley's career as Patsy in Ab Fab (of which Ruby was script editor). Her subsequent specials interviewing Imelda Marcos, Tammy Faye Bakker, O.J. Simpson are priceless.
I can also heartily recommend her autobiography. I don't often read showbiz bios, but this one almost had me crying and laughing on alternate pages. It's real "Running with Scissors" material.
