Proud Uncle Jake Gyllenhaal
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Celebrity Babies, Features,
Jake Gyllenhaal loves being an uncle.
The actor is besotted with sister Maggie Gyllenhaal's two daughters, Ramona, six, and three-month-old Gloria, and describes the girls as "extraordinary."
"They are the best thing that happened to my family probably ever," he added.
Jake, 31, admits he can see similarities between Ramona and Gloria and him and 34-year-old Maggie when they were growing up: "It's a similar dynamic between me and my sister to this day. I think we are each other's toughest critics, but we also, I think, love each other's work more than anyone else. Even at this age, my older niece will come up to her [sister] and joke to her, and she'll laugh and then she'll run away and she starts to cry."

Maggie Gyllenhaal Has ‘No Idea’ How to Cope with Two Kids
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Celebrity Babies,
The Hysteria actress - who recently gave birth to her second child with actor husband Peter Sarsgaard - intested to see how she copes with bringing up two youngsters at the same time.
"I'm curious to see how much I remember about nursing and changing diapers. About all of it. I have no idea how to do it with two. Having children is the most humbling thing you can do," the 34-year-old mother told USA Today.
The parent to Ramona, five, and Gloria Ray who was born last month, admitted that she and her partner are worried about juggling their schedules.
In her new motion picture she plays Charlotte Dalrymple, a women's rights activist in Victorian London. The Tanya Wexler-directed film revolves around how the vibrator was created. "'Peter was joking with me the other day. He said, 'How are either of us ever going to work, ever?' We've figured out pretty well how to do it with one. At first we would take [Ramona] with us. Now she's in kindergarten and it's important that she's settled. I wouldn't take her out for any old thing," she confessed.

Maggie Gyllenhaal has given birth to a girl.
The 34-year-old actress and husband Peter Sarsgaard welcomed their second daughter - a sibling for five-year-old daughter Ramona - into the world on April 19 and have named her Gloria Ray, according to US Weekly.
Maggie - who gave birth in New York - kept the pregnancy under wraps until her second trimester but previously admitted she found it difficult to keep her news quiet: "I find it difficult to pretend you're not pregnant, which I had to do. I didn't let anyone know until three and a half months this time. I went to film festivals. I'm throwing up in the bathroom and having to keep pretzels in my purse, and having to fit into dresses."
Peter recently revealed he and Maggie were thrilled to know the gender of the baby as it gave them a chance to try out names before she was born: "It's the nice thing about knowing the gender of a child; you don't have to call it 'it,' which gets really weird after seven months in. So we've been trying out a few names, but nothing solid."

Maggie Gyllenhaal is expecting a baby girl.
The 34-year-old actress and husband Peter Sarsgaard will welcome their second child - a sibling for five-year-old daughter Ramona - into the world some time this spring, and while they have now disclosed the gender of the tot, they are not planning to reveal exactly when it is due because they don't want to attract too much attention.
"I hope [people] don't make an issue of it this time. I have to think about that stuff," Maggie explained.
The Hysteria actress admitted she feels "so pregnant" right now and, after making a serious of public appearances before she announced she was expecting another baby, she is relieved she doesn't have to keep the news secret any more.
"'I find it difficult to pretend you're not pregnant, which I had to do. I didn't let anyone know until three and a half months this time. I went to film festivals. I'm throwing up in the bathroom and having to keep pretzels in my purse, and having to fit into dresses."

Maggie Gyllenhaal Feels For Jake
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Rants,
Loving mother and sister Maggie Gyllenhaal “feels sorry” for her brother.
The Dark Knight actress is saddened her younger sibling Jake Gyllenhaal is constantly followed by paparazzi and admits that his celebrity lifestyle has changed him as a person.
“Of course, everybody does change as they grow up, but I think it’s really hard for anybody who has to figure out a way to manage it. Like in Los Angeles, I don’t always know where to avoid going—sometimes you just walk right into a paparazzi nest. I get so angry, really upset. They chase him in their car and it’s just different for him. More than anything I feel sorry for him that he has to deal with that.”
Maggie, 31, and her family—actor husband Peter Sarsgaard and their two-year-old daughter Ramona—split their time between America and Britain to avoid the intrusion into their private lives.
She explained to Britain’s Marie Claire: “When Ramona was born, it was bad. We were living in the West Village in New York, where all the paparazzi are, and it got frenzied. They never bother us in London. We were at Wimbledon, walking around with sausages and champagne, and we thought, ‘We are so lucky we can do that—I don’t want to give it up.’”
Maggie Gyllenhaal Admires Kate Winslet
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Celebrity Babies,
Maggie Gyllenhaal looks to Kate Winslet for parenting skills.
The 31-year-old actress, who has two-year-old daughter Ramona with husband Peter Sarsgaard, is in awe of the way the Revolutionary Road actress raises her two children.
“I try to protect my personal life, and most of all my daughter. But I also recall things people I admire have said in print that have helped me. I’ve thought, ‘Oh, wow, Kate Winslet thinks that way about parenting,’ or, ‘Meryl Streep thinks that about acting.’ So I do also believe that it’s good to let a little bit out.”
Despite wanting to reveal some aspects of her private life to her fans, Maggie is not interested in hearing what people think about her. Referring to internet search engine Google, she explained, “You can’t go and Google yourself. You just can’t. It doesn’t feel good. Just step away from Google, absolutely. How can you ever choose things in your life that will please everyone? The same goes for reviews. I can do work I’m proud of, but then people don’t like it and it just ties you up in knots.”
Celebrity Fashion Trend: The Orange Dress
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Television, Clothing, Red Carpet, Style, Photos,
Since orange just currently happens to be my favorite color, it’s no coincidence that two of my favorite looks from this week are orange red-carpet dresses.
While it’s not an easy shade to wear, I think that Blake Lively (at the The Sisterhood Of The Traveling Pants 2 premiere) and Maggie Gyllenhaal (at Japan’s Dark Knight premiere) both pulled the hue off beautifully.
