EOnline – The hunt’s been on for as long as Angelina Jolie’s been working men—and women. Closeted quasi-hunky movie star Toothy Tile has legions of folks wondering who he is, and he’s become our biggest Blind Vice superstar.
While Toothy’s busy—chatting up fellow not-out gay stars or apparently trying to go straight—we’re gonna help the guessing game along. In more of a, uh, back-door kinda way.
See, we’re going to tell you fab detectives who Toothy isn’t!
Behold our People Who Are Not Toothy Tile gallery! We’ll start updating this more often so you sexy sniffers can see the fellas who most definitely are not the erstwhile closeted T.T. And keep the guesses coming!
Zac Efron
Zac’s still up and coming—although we must say, his career is looking better than Toothy’s right now.
Will Smith
Will certainly flashes those pearly whites, so we see why he would be an obvious guess. But come on—W.S. loves to blab about his and Jada’s sexcapades. Toothy doesn’t do that about his beard, and certainly not about dear old Grey Goose.
Brad Pitt
Pitt’s in a whole other status level than T.T.—fame- and kids-wise.
Gerard Butler
G.B. has only been getting a lot of press lately because of the various women he’s supposedly bedded. Toothy’s never been that guy. At least not in any kind of repeat fashion.
Matthew McConaughey
Sorry, Toothy’s M.O. is hardly to play the bongos nude. It’s to have secret guy-on-guy rendezvous in parking lots…duh. Well, used to, at least, before he went all publicist on us.
Ben Affleck
Sorry, Ben’s got his own issues to deal with, and they aren’t Toothy Tile’s. But of all the dudes on this list, Ben comes closest to T.T., acting oeuvre-wise.
Kevin Spacey
It’s obvious why Spacey would be an obvious choice here. Except T.T. is younger and is still working his way up the H’wood ladder. Kevin is too vintage. Too a lotta things.
Shia LaBeouf
Too young—and Shia’s problems are way too public. Toothy likes to keep his stuff über-secret, you all should know that by now. Also Toothy controls his substances far better.
Jamie Foxx
Probably the least likely Tooth candidate of this list. T.T. isn’t that dark and handsome. At least not to some folks. Also, J.F. hardly hides his naughtiness, unlike Tooth, who’s all about it these days.
Ryan Gosling
Thank goodness it’s not a stud fave of Team Awful’s like Gosling. Toothy’s beard has most definitely not been Rachel McAdams. Think less studly, slightly.
Robert Pattinson
Fear not, Team Edward—R.Pattz hasn’t been relevant long enough to be a contender in the Toothy guessing game. But he’s sure got the right blush.
Bradley Cooper
Cooper has his secrets, sure, but he’s not quite Toothy status yet. Although B.C. is a fab guess.
Hayden Christenson
I like that guess
Christensen was ruled out years ago, along with Bloom, Wood, Priestly and a host of others. The ONLY one never ruled out is Gyllenhaal, and all the clues fit him. Besides, if you were there from the start when this all started there was a piece going around about Jake and his then bf openly holding hands at Basix cafe in LA, which was how the BI came about. Jake all the way, and still as closeted as ever!
No idea
Sooooo basically they are forcing Jake G. out of the closet?
I like your guess better.
wow! He’s really out to get Jake Gyllenhaal now! Maybe he is friends with Austin Nichols and helping to push Jake out of the closet.
I’d say that’s a bingo
yep its the Gyllenhaal… not too young… not too old.. just right…
how is it Jake if they call his beard an “old grey goose?” this no way describes reese. She’s young and perky…
actually a lot of the clues above don’t match Jake. The old grey goose one. Also it says his acting is like Ben Affleck. Jake is far better an actor than Ben. It also says he’s on substances, which does not sound like Jake (dunno), and it says he’s less studly than Ryan Gossling. No way. Jake is mr muscles and very sexy. No way he’s less studly than Ryan etc, etc, etc…
Grey Goose isn’t his beard… That’s the name of his boyfriend.
Good G-d, I just had a thought: Ashton Kut!!! He has an “Old Grey Goose”, still makes movies, was a male model…
Wow, you all might be missing it with Jakey.
Eeeeeeeeveryone and their beard knows that toothy is Jake!!!
Everybody knows that Jake G is Toothy, it’s not a BI anymore.
It’s almost well known (at least to those who read BG) that Toothy is unofficially Jake G…but the clues above make me wonder. Wonder about who? Dunno
why does no one think it’s TommyGirl? My guess is between TommyGirl and JakeG. I don’t see the appeal of JakeG. He sort of has a cartoonish look to him. :shrug: IMHO
Tom Cruise seems to be too old.
Ben Affleck is closest to Toothy in terms of acting oeuvre…Jake and Ben’s acting resume are more similar than Ben and Tom’s.
I’d say the Kevin Spacey blurb about being “too vintage” also applies to Tom Cruise. Toothy is still working his way up the ladder. Tom’s been on top of it, even if he is a bit more of a joke now.
good points.. alright alright… i think TommyGirl is disqualified.
It seems like they are making people focus on Jake but it also says that Toothy’s career isn’t as good as Efrons- I would say Jake is way more successful at this point than Efron. it also says Toothy is not quite as studly as Ryan Gosling- I would say Jake’s a pretty big stud. Better looking than Ryan Gosling at least!
Your making rethink my guess, but haven’t all the possibilities been exhausted? Hmmmmm
i definitely agree. these clues don’t fit with jake, even though it’s been assumed he’s toothy for a long time…hmmm
u think jake g is more of a stud that ryan??? ewww…LOL
I have seen Reece and Jake in person. They really look genuinely happy together. No matter what the rumors may be, I don’t think Reece would involve her children in some scam relationship. She is way to uptight and traditional. This is not JG.
maybe the only ’scam’ aspect of their relationship is whats presented for the public to see, maybe in private they’re living as friends and are happy with that so theres nothing false being presented to the kids.
When is the last time Jake had a great movie out?? I honestly can’t remember. I can only remember Brokeback mountain! I feel like there is another one I am forgetting.
Zac’s career is based on teeny-boppers.
I guess it depends on how you define success!
Money and your face on erasers and such…
Or getting nominated (I can’t remember if he won) for an award a long time ago and doing more serious acting.
You obviously didn’t see “Zodiac”, or “Rendition”; two critical favorites.
Beautiful acting in both!
Let’s not forget Donnie Darko or Jarhead either. And isn’t J G part of a Hollywood old family? Why would it say “Except T.T. is younger and is still working his way up the H’wood ladder” if he’s been in Hollywood for decades? Sorry, I just don’t want it to be him.
Nikki, I think you don’t hang out with young girls much — Zac Efron is a GOD to them. Plus, he’s a total cash machine for Disney.
While Jake G is drool worthy for my my set (42 and odd), and while he’s had much critical acclaim, he’s never been the kind of huge earner that Zac is. You don’t see lunchboxes with Jake’s face, T-shirts, notebooks, cell phone covers, posters, dolls, etc etc. The tweenyboppers have a huge amount of disposable income, and they spend a lot of it on that HS Musical junk.
You are right about Efron being a god to the tweens! haha I totally agree.I guess I was taking career success to mean the amount of good or critically acclaimed movies rather than the money aspect. You could be right though!
Also, I too think Ryan Gosling is drool worthy- I just think people would consider Jake more “studly” than Ryan- Ryan is more the mysterious, brooding independent than stud.
There is a MASSIVE list of ‘and its not’ that has eliminated pretty much everyone in Hollywood EXCEPT Jake G…that’s why its not Tom, Keanu, Ben or Matt, George, Brad or anyone else other than Jake G…I don’t think BG wants me to copy/paste the list of ‘not’s here…but you can find them easily enough if you do a google search for them…
Hi clemmy! Yes, you can paste the list here. Love, BG
Jake is really the only person not on this list that has been around as long as Toothy has and fits Toothy’s description.

(last updated 10/21/09)
BG – please make a link to this blind item of yours so it can be easily referenced every time you post another of Ted’s Toothy Tile blinds. Most of us have known for years that TT is Jake G. (personally I figured it out that one time forever ago when there were four gossip items about celebrities but only one of them was blind. The four pictures used were of the other three celebrities but the fourth was a picture of Jake and the blind was TT. Easy to do the math on that one.)
Anyway, us old-timers all know it’s Jake but a link to this blind could help the new peeps out tremendously. Jut a teensy weensy suggestion. kisses! -Bean
Queen Latifah – LMAO
Dick Cheney- ROTF
yeah, tack the list to the fridge
why is emile hirsch’s name on here three times? just a typo?
Jennifer Garner?
Where is George Clooney?
he is in the list..8th line
There are a lot of women on this list. Hilary Clinton. lol
Who used to have a very successful career that has now cooled down, who has played a super hero like Affleck (Dare Devil), younger than Spacey, older than Shia, lighter than Jamie, less studly than the Gos, light skin and pink cheeks like RPatz.
This seems less like Jakey and more like Tobey Maguire. Has he ever been excluded from the list??
I totally agree! The whole cooled down career, Jake G has Prince of Persia right now, and Tobey Maguire hasn’t done anything since Spiderman!
A coincidence: Tobey M., top-billed, and Jake G. co-star in a new movie set for release soon.
It says “slightly less studly than Ryan Gosling.” Tobey Maguire has the body of a 12 year old girl.
Who else has done the superhero stuff? and could he be african-american since he’s “not that dark” doesn’t mean he’s white.
TT isn’t married! so he can’t be Tobey Maguire!TT is Jake G!
i’m tired of TT blind items!
well if it was Tobey the ‘old grey goose’ beard would make sense because that is what his wife looks like.
In the post above, Tobey is the first name eliminated. It’s definitely Jake! Grey Goose is Austin Nichols (currently on One Tree Hill. He stared with Jake in “The Day After Tomorrow”).
Jake has that huge prince of persia movie coming out..he’s not really having career issues, his career is at least on par with efron. Is it possible that everyone zeroing in on Jake is keeping people from looking at the clues?
Since when has a movie adaption of a video game been huge?
Tomb Raider? Resident Evil? Mortal Kombat? Just because you don’t like video game movies doesn’t mean they aren’t ever big or successful. Though I’ll give you credit that most of them totally blow, Prince of Persia is highly-anticipated.
seriously prince of persia was the first video game i ever played on the old school nitendo…its one of nitendos first games isnt it? or did they take it from another system?.. this is MAJOR and im not even a gamer..
For all of you saying Jake G’s career is going better than Shia, Ben, etc…Dream on!
Jake’s been in a string of bombs and he’s widely considered box office poison at this point. He has no credential as a leading man/romantic interest, which is career death. What was his last success? I can’t even remember. He better hope Prince of Persia hits (doubtful, as it looks terrible with limited demographic appeal, and couldn’t they not get anybody else to do it in the first place?) or he’ll be in the same crapfests Ryan Phillippe now gets as this stage in his career.
TT is obviously Jake.
Psshh, C-64 P-of-P…
Some of the guesses, not specifically here but everywhere, don’t take into account the history of this long running blind vice. Zac was just a middle school student when this began, for instance. Tom was long married when this began about a young single closeted actor smooching men in the park. This is Jake Gyllenhaal. You don’t have to believe it about him, but this has always been about Jake Gyllenhaal.
Correct. It’s cute when newbies take random guesses, but seriously, do your research. The whole Toothy Tile thing has been around for years and years and is a desperate attempt for Ted C to keep pulling in interest in his lame-o column. Whether or not it’s true, Toothy is supposed to be Jake. For the love of all humankind, please people, stop guessing anything other than Jake. Or just stop guessing completely, because this one is done.
Toothy Tile blinds *made* Ted who he is today. Trust. Ted’s been around for a while but it was TT that *really* put him on the map. He’s still Ted’s most popular Blind Vice and probably drives/drove the majority of traffic to his internet door.
Totally true! Ted depends on that blind and our naivete!
Why is Ted so obsessed with trying to out Toothy Tile? Is it possible that he is just playing everyone? Is he maybe always posting Toothy Tile because it’s really not Jake and he gets fun out of making everyone think it really is? If he says it’s not Jake then won’t most people loose interest in Toothy tile?
That being said, I think it probably really is Jake, but that whole career slowing down makes me think twice. His isn’t and he has a huge blockbuster coming out next summer.
SOOOOOOO OVER TOOTHY-TILE! If he doesn’t want to come out, that is his effing business. Jesus, it almost makes me skip right over Ted’s blinds because even if they have NOTHING TO DO with Toothy, he’ll still throw his name out there. Stop trying to make your name outing someone else. I’m looking at you to Perez.
So what is the story behind the name ‘Toothy Tile’?
and Ted C has secrets on all these guys :Cooper,Effron,Smith,… if he could write better,it could be interesting!
Ted C. doesn’t need to “make a name” for himself, he’s been in the gossip business for over 25 years. His sources run deep and are everywhere. He has the best track record for the truth out there today.
My first time to comment, so be kind.
My guess: Toothy Tile is Billy Bush because the first letter of the first and last name both start with the same letter; the last letter of both first names ends with “y” and both names have the same syllables.
I used to work with Billy Bush. (My first name drop!) There is no way he is gay.
billy bush reminds me of simon baker’s character in the devil wears prada. mmm…simon and his golden locks of floppy hair…..and that smile!
Yeah, it’s Jake…but until he tells us he likes the peen, I’m not waiting by the phone anymore!;-)
What about Stuart Townsend, Charlize Theron’s boyfriend?
I like this guess because Charlize co-starred with Ben Affleck in Reindeer Games right? Stuart is also good friends with Jonathan Rhys Meyers. I gay vision goggles have been zeroing in on JRM for a long time. I don’t think this is Jake either. Imagine the revolt if Ted C. said Toothy is not Jake after we have besmirched his name unmercifully. I wouldn’t trust Ted again.
Ruled out years ago. And Billy BUsh was never a contender either. Some of you guys are just pulling guesses out of thin air to suit.
TT goes back five years. There ere a shit load of clues pting to Jake G years ago and Ted has practically outed him with innuendo several times. You just weren’t there to read it.
There is a Toothy Tile website with all of Ted’s TT posts and Jake posts on it. Earlier on, he didn’t claim Toothy was gay but bi, AND that he was really in love with an old girlfriend (Kirsten Dunst) at one point. In the past I’ve thought it couldn’t be Jake because I don’t see Reese as a beard with a contract . . . but maybe it is Jake and his relationship with Reese is real (at least to her). I have to change my position in light of the long list of folks it is not, and say Jake. Poor Reese.
One of the questions about Toothy that Ted C answered was had toothy been in a movie with Jennifer Aniston and Ted’s answer was yes. But Jake G seems so obvious and the popular answer so he’s probably not toothy, wishful thinking. He’s really good looking but overrated as an actor. And his upcoming projects are few and far between compared to Efron. He’s competing with Efron for a lead role in Hair the movie, so what does that say about a academy award nominated actor competing with the boy from High School Musical. His career has slowed down in spite of the Prince of Persia due out next summer. But Jake as Toothy is just too easy.
[...] is the original post: Toothy Tile is Not One of These Guys « … Share and [...]
I remember reading a blind item that everyone said was about Jake and Reese Witherspoon that said that they needed to start hanging out more in public so that people would stop thinking he was gay and that their relationship was fake, because he was really straight and they were really a couple.
If he is gay, why did he do Brokeback Mountain? Wouldn’t someone gay want to avoid starring in a movie like that?
Even if it is him, who cares? If he wants to be in the closet, let him. He wouldn’t be the first one in Hollywood. I still do not understand why Ted is so obsessed with him.
jake did this film, around the time toothy tile was considering finally coming out of the closet … everything does fit for jake g being toothy tile.
I really don’t think Ted would of allowed the jake guesses to keep going like this if it wasn’t him.
Because he and Heath were actors who got the chance at a beautiful story.
Anthony Hopkins is not, as far as I know, a cannibal either.
But, then again, why on Earth would Sir Anthony want to play a character like that? Hmmmmm.
said it wasn’t robert pattinson, but had “the right blush”. as in, from blood- rpattz played a vampire in twilight, and so toothy tile may have played a vampire as well. tom cruise played the vampire lestat in “interview with the vampire.” eddie murphy played a vampire also, i can’t recall the name of the movie. and wasn’t wesley snipes in Blade? wesley snipes doesn’t ping my gaydar at ALL though
Is it Matt Damon?
my thought too,
According to IMDb, Jake Gyllenhaal is set for
1.- Damn Yankees
2.- Moon Project (Untitled)
3.- Joe Namath Project (Untitled)
Love and Other Drugs (filming)
Nailed (post production)
Brothers (completed)
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time (completed)
The original post said “these guys are not Toothy Tile”, it did not say they were not gay. So after TT exposes himself, we will be back to square one with all these OTHER possible closeted celebrities! LOL—will all this speculation never end? BTW___I wonder now if this is the tipping point and Toothy Tile (probably Jake), will come out, just to say “yeah, it’s me! Now enough is enough, leave me alone!”
All them guys who he said is not Toothy has been rumored to be gay/bi(except I never heard know gay rumors on shia). Also I believe all of them have been blind vices accept for shia labouf, Kevin spacey and Ryan Gosling.
Ashton kutcher?
Oh for the love of Pete. George Clooney.
Could be James Franco …
Nope, never mind. He’s a “not”.
And we all know that Franco is Crotch Uh-Lastic, he of the swimming pool seduction scenario.
What about Stuart Townsend, Charlize Theron’s boyfriend? The thing about the right blush as RPatz(both played vampire) and Zac Efron’s career being better…Jake G has Prince of Persia coming out. STUART TOWNSEND FTW!
Some of those clues totally fit – but I can’t see why Charlize would have to put up with a bearding situation. Even if she tipped the velvet herself, she’s such a strong personality I think she would still be quite successful.
A (gay) friend of mine knows some of the Townsend family and has met Stuart a good few times and he’s never mentioned Stuart pinging his gaydar. He actually commented on how non-Hollywood he was.
I am starting to doubt JG as TT, I really dont think Reese would willingly participate in a scam, those kids are her life, and as much as I love Jake, that new movie looks like shit, couldnt even watch the trailer all the way thru….we all fell in love with Jack Twist, not JG
do you know reese personally?
how you know her kids are her life?
Hollywood is one big giant illusion. Nothing is what it seems
Celebs we think are nice and happy but behind closed doors are the total opposite.
you dont know Reese, you know her image.
Ok fine, well I don’t care if Jake is Toothy Tile or whatever he is hot as hell and can come hang with me (a woman) any day.
HOT!
ALL old timers know this is about JG. 100%. Anything else is pointless debating.
forget about Toothy, look at what’s written about the other guys! I’m intrigued by what they wrote about Pitt, Affleck & Cooper . . .
TT, who else could he be? Going by the Rob Patz clue, maybe Daniel Radcliff, but i doubt it, he doesn’t really fit & i don’t think he’s gay. At this point, i would be surprised if it wasn’t Jake. I mean, is there anyone else we are missing this could possibly fit? Everyone else has pretty much been ruled out!
For some reason, I keep thinking Edward Burns. Time frame is right. Hasn’t been ruled out. Probably not, but maybe?
I cant believe we’re going back over this!
Totally Jakey. Oh man, I don’t even care, I still love the TT blinds. Everyone else can be as jaded as they want, but I’m gonna keep liking them.
That said, Reece could totally use it to her advantage if that’s what she’s worried about. She could spin it to be the one that “helped the love of her life become comfortable with who he is blah blah blah” thereby scoring both sympathy and kudos. Or something, idk.
I know who this is, he is not that famous – Ryan Phillippe
gay men can be married to women and have children
Jake G is too obvious, this points to Reeses other man – Ryan Phillippe
nobody is figuring it out because Ryan Phillippe is not that everyday famous
but he’s already been eliminated by ted…..
these clues make me doubt jake g as tt. nothing fits based on this post alone
What about Jared Leto????
Hugh Grant.
What about Justin Long??
I don’t think he was on the radar when the TT blind item debuted. There were the Apple commercials, but no one really knew who he was yet.
I can’t imagine who else it could be besides Jake, but at the same time, Reese Witherspoon isn’t exactly some up-and-comer who needs to make a name for herself, so I can’t see her stooping to bearding in order to make a name for herself. Then again, Ted once said that TT was actually bisexual, so it could still be Jake.
Justin Long was in Jeepers Creepers and Dodgeball far before the Apple commercials came out in 2006.
Gyllenhaal.
What about Vince Vaughn? He was once as lithe as Ryan Gosling.
the one i’m thinking of filed for divorce in 2009
