It was Jenny Lewis. They dated a long time ago. Before Kristen Dunst. And then they were friends. He even introduced Jenny to Reese Witherspoon. He and Reese went to Jenny’s shows…
Now fresh off his breakup from Taylor Swift…
Instead of going to the Globes alone…
He not only brings a date, but an ex-girlfriend?
What is this all about?
The no-drama answer would be that he just wanted to hang out with a buddy. If that’s the case, just take her to the afterparty. Refusing to pose together in the same frame doesn’t count.
But please, Jakey is not a stranger to the game. You bring a girl, especially an old gf, and people will talk. Do you want people to talk? We are talking. Everyone is talking now. I dislike this move. I dislike a lot of his recent moves…although he and Jason Segel had a bro down moment on the E! live show that was pretty f-cking cute.
Still, it’s not enough to make whatever he’s playing any less disappointing. (Jesus I can turn on people quickly.)
