Rachel Bilson’s Passport Photo Shoot
Rachel Bilson strikes a pose (or two) for a passport picture at a FedEx Kinko’s in Burbank, Calif. on Thursday.
25+ pictures inside of the eco-friendly actress fueling up her Lexus RX Hybrid at a local gas station. More pictures were posted earlier in the day as well…

boring
third!!
shes so pretty not as much there though
prettyyyy.
snooze fest boring
Watch Jumper!!!!!!!!!!
That’s what Rachel wants you to do.
You can say that she’s only being followed and she has no control over it, but she certainly welcomes it.
ScarJo or Natalie Portman would probably tell the paps to **** off.
If you want their career, Rachel, please stop overexposing yourself.
Good Lord. Rachel Bilson gets her passport photo taken. Major breaking news.
Don’t disappoint us Jared. The poor darling is soo underexposed on your blog.
I’m soooo looking forward to pictures of
Rachel Bilson removing gum from her shoes.
Rachel Bilson blinking her eyes.
Rachel Bilson stepping on a pebble.
Rachel Bilson’s hair blowing in the wind.
Rachel Bilson crinkling her nose.
This girl is SOOO totally newsworthy.
Eh, dull.
–read my blog at http://fashionpoirot.blogspot.com
You would think this dingbat would already have her passport?? Maybe she had to update her passport.
I would not be surprised if she is photgraphed next taking a sh*t in a public restroom off Rodeo Drive someplace or next!!! She invites the paparazzi in for her next pap smear?!! Jesus!! I knew we were going to see a lot of her but, this is f*cking ridiculous. I feel like almost related to her! EEWWWW!!!!
She looks thrilled to be being photographed. Are they taking pics through the windows or did they actually follow her into the store?
@raven
gee girl you have to mention that. lol you grossed me out. i know she is milking this for all it is worth. what is next she wants them to follow her while she grocery shops. enough is ehough.
Even that thing?!
Jeez this ULTRA DESPERATE midget is REALLY DAMN PATHETIC!!!
pfff! seeing her now bores me
how desperate does she have to be !!! she is like the yoko romo jessica simpson. nuff said…
hauhuauhhaa
nice
hahahaha. you just made my day comment #7. XD
she and adam should just get over themselves and get back together. because i can’t stand rachel being with that gay star wars dude, and adam being with that blonde ***** that fucked every actor she worked with cough*tophergrace&danielradcliffe*cough
And why do we need to see her get a passport picture I’m sure those who walk into the Fed Ex don’t have paparazzi going around taking her pict…GOD her PR man must be working overtime to get her out there to be noticed..Can’t say from the sound of things many people truly care if Jumper comes out or not..too much press can turn people off..
WTF is the love affair with this girl at the moment on here, about 6 different posts in 2 days ??? I agree, getting her photo taken is hardly newsworthy
@ Nova Lee,
Sorry for being so obnoxious but, this is truly ridiculous! Well, the girl’s been on holiday so, she’s making up for lost time. All this is going to turn off then on for the movie Jumper.
@irishdreams
yep you got that right!! more exposure she gets more and more the peeps are going to turn away. she wants jumper to fail that is what i think.
Gee, what a shy flower this Rachel Bilson is.
Unlike other celebs,I hardly see her in paparazzi photos doing useless things like gassing up her car or going to the supermarket. She’s not one of those fame hungry starlets who poses in a bikini in some men’s magazine to get people’s attention. She never dates her costars to get in the tabloids.
She has class.
That’s so not fair! We’re not allowed to smile in our passport photos! We have to show no expression, so we all end up looking like stunned mullets.
@akari
Perfect! Sarcasm at it’s finest. I bow to your wit. Used to like her, now can’t stand the sight of her. I hope Hayden runs as soon as this flick’s publicity is over. It does look like a good film. I hope she doesn’t FIU.
What does FIU mean?
okay this is how i think it is going to pan out. rachel plus overexposure equals tank city.yes hayden needs to head for the hills. i bet that rachel is going to foul things up.
she ment f*ck it up. that is what it means. here is what i think that is going to happen. rachel plus overexposure equals tank city. that is a theory. hope hayden does head for the hills. that is my two cents.
i thought you weren’t allowed HAIR AROUND/OVER face in this picture.. but since its a celebrity.
I had to put my hair behind BOTH ears !
@paulina
i bet she did not have a hat so she had to the unthinkable. to look ditzy. nuff said.
Even her damn passport picture turns into a photoshoot. My passport picture looks like $hit. LOL. Shes so cute.
“Even her damn passport picture turns into a photoshoot.”
LOL
I used to like this **** but this proves this she is just aother Jesperate Simpson. How much for those shots Rachel? No way in hell the paps just happened to be there, desperaredo.
UMM…FOR PASSPORT PHOTOS YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO WEAR YOUR HAIR DOWN…NOT UP.
RACHEL BILSON TIPS OFF THE PAPARAZZI
EVERYSINE RACHEL HAS BEEN FEEDING HAYDEN,YOU CAN SEE THE SAME PHOTOGRAPHER TAKING HER PICTURES,THE NAME IS:
Bauer-Griffin
RACHEL PLANS THIS DUMB SH*** AND SHE’S TELLING THE PHOTOG GUY WHEN AND WHERE,AND OBVIOUSLY OVER DUMB SH** “OH LOOK IM SHOPPING AGAIN,OH MY GOSH AND WATCH ME LOOK INTO THE CAMERA..OMG IM SOOOO SHOCKED THAT YOU ARE FOLLOWING ME!” B**CH PLEASE!
rachel thinks it is a photoshoot!! yeah you are supposed to wear your hair down. she is milking this pure and simple. she is so diggny to know that. she needs to go back and shop. that is waht she is good at. as for her acting. when her lime light fades. don’t be surprised if she does a relality show. like you would watch that?
I just checked that out,and EVERY sighting with Hayden and Rachel,you’ll see the same photographer’s name over and over with Hayden and Rachel together,I mean with other celebrities I see different names EVERYtime,or you won’t just see one specific photographer everytime someone is with their man. COME ON! people face the facts. I don’t know if Rachel is using Hayden OR not,but it certainly seems like it, I don’t want to bring up their so-called relations,because everyone has an opinion on if they or arent they. BUT the more I look at it,the more it just dosen’t seem right to me..you’ll alll see someday,it’ll all probably fade like my jeans.
@ nova lee
HELL NO!!! LMAO I would not waste my time and watch her show full of shopping and hairflips walking down the streets with her personal photographer/paparazzi man!
@bad girl
i would not watch her show either. not if i was so out of hit and high on something. she would be like another paris hilton show.
It looks like Rachel and Jessica Simpson ought to go bowling together! Both are BIMBO’S and share the same media wh*ring trait’s and both are legally midget’s except, one is a blonde w/ big boobs and the other is well, a brunette but plain Jane trying to be miss pin-up of the year. F*Ck!! I have seen wayyyy better looking girls @ the high school where I work!!
Gee! I wonder if, Rachel will be spotted @ the DMV next re-taking her Driver’s license photo? She must be due for a new license soon being 26 and all??! The b*tch has been driving for a while and probably drives like a b*tch too!
@raven
does it mean we might have to pull over when she pass by? we don’t want to get run over by her. she might br putting on her makeup or eatting while driving. that is a no no.
We just might Nove Lee!!
She obviously does not look like she likes to pay attention to the road when driving. She is looking for the paparazzi!! She is probably your typical SUV driving b*tch. Cut’s people off while chatting on her cell phone left and right and just giggling away and not paying attention. Then, if she get’s behind you she’s right on your azz!! She’s got to be in FRONT!! Take it! Take it b*tch!! Stay the f*ck away from me!! @ least she has not been reported drinking and driving yet! I will give her credit for that much!
@int - #7
Thanks a lot, I had such a good laugh during my morning coffee! :-)
WONDERFUL post!
@Nice Guy
Thanks for the good notice and public information about Bauer-Griffin! I always suspected/felt that she’s too much in the media for who she NOT is (a good actress LOL)… and a serious actress would also be busy with making movies, not just hop around in front of cameras for senseless reasons. And you just proved it! Hopefully some more ex-fangirls will get it too, like Bad Girl and some others already have said.
As to Hayden, you cannot use somebody in this way who does not ALLOW it to happen. Think about that.
So to me he’s just no better.
And to everybody saying that this promotion for “Jumper” gets ridiculous and far too much I fully agree. If the movie was good it would stand for itself, but this hype is really forcing the opposite believe in people.
@raven
yeah she might think that she the queen of the road. yeah we can give her credit for not drinking. or she might be driving to the beat of the music playing ouch!! might want to pull over for that crap.lol
SOMETHING IS UP WITH THIS.
SMILEHEX,What do you think about this Hayden and Rachel thing,do you think its just another publicity stunt,just buddies or really together( I dont know/think for sure if they are dating,even though she has said that she is HAPPY WITH HER LOVE LIFE (ie Hayden or maybe some other dude,…..yet again maybe Hayden).
Hayden would never come out and say “Im Happy with my love life” Hayden would NEVER NEVER EVER talk about his personal life like that in anyway,he’ll just say that he don’t want to discuss it at all,period and then there’s Rachel talking about it. Im not tryna be rude,BUT If Hayden would be dating Rachel,wouldn’t they atleast kissed by now,over the past long months they’ve been seen together!!!!-THIS IS ALL CONFUSING ME!!!!!! WHAT IS GOING ON!!!!! everyone has a different opinion and its either they are or they aren;t. I rather hear it from Hayden’s mouth,BUT we should’ve seen them kiss by now.If its real,which I HIGHLY DOUBT IT IS REAL!!!!!

I’ve just noticed she’s wearing the “H” necklace again!
She;s wearing that thing again…oh please! What does that stand for? Maybe she wants it to stand for Hayden when it probably stands for Height disorder,cause she’s so short!
Or mabye she want’s it to stand for her little sister Hattie likes she has said in the GQ interview or the Hashbrown’s she might has eaten today! Better watch the hashbrown consumption Rachel. Fatty! Fatty! Not good on keeping a girlish figure! ROTFLMAO!!
the “H” stands for her sis hattie. height disorder now that is funny.
It’s amazing how she LOVES to wear it allll the time now! when its for her little sister,does anyone have pictures of her wearing this necklace along time agao,if anyone can get them,i would love to see it,
thanx
@raven
now that is funny. gee i forgot boutt the hashbrown connection. yeah those browns would go to those hips. not a good thing.ver very bad.
@ Nova Lee,
Yes! If, Rachel wants to continue being Miss. Fashion plate she, may want to give up the hashbrown’s unless, she up chucks afterwards. That is probably be more likely the case!!! LOL!
Night Y’all!
You can do it Jared. You can reach 100 Rachel Bilson posts a day.
Set a world record for RBils. I know you want to.
The more useless the activity the better. That’s what great actresses are known for.
Don’t disappoint me pleaaase.
RBils Fan numero uno.
cute outfit
@Bad Girl
I was just busy reading a very long but highly good written post by somebody named “Rosemadder” on the “touching his forehead”-thread… and I totally agree to the whole first paragraph of this post. Not to the relationship-part though.
Unlike many others I do believe they are a couple. Hayden is not the type to show affection in public, probably he learned from doing it in Italy and with S.M. that it was not a good idea so he tries to play it down this time.
But let’s face it: HE IS THE ONE getting on a plane and flying to L.A. in first place (although he always claimed he hates that city), HE IS THE ONE to get into Bilson’s car and go out with her shopping etc. They have been seen on several vacations together, although not stated by photographs, but said by many different people - why should all of them lie and tell the very same story? This would sound not logical to me. His family has often been seen with Bilson, so they seem to respect her (WHY is an enigma to me? I would WARN my son/brother about this girl, but maybe they don’t want to lose him.).
So I think they are definitely a couple but Hayden is trying to do it as “not in public” as possible which is of course ridiculous when being with a media horny person like Bilson at all. If he wants his peace in private life, go out and search for a more decent woman, buddy! LOL And as to “but he does not talk about it and not approve it” - well, he never will. Hayden always was like that and even said it loud in this horrible “E-Talk”-interview in spring 2007 that he, quote, “usually denies everything”. Yeah, that’s the way he treats things. So fans who believe him his denial are just as naive as fans who fall for Bilson’s “wearing the H-necklace”-stunt. And she plays with that in that GQ-interview with laughing first and THEN coming out with mentioning her little sister. She’s a trained media player, always was.
But Hayden, although saying nothing in interviews or even denying, also says something. Action speaks louder than words IMO. And by getting into her car, allow to be seen and connected with her etc. he silently speaks. Quiet agreement. But this is just my point of view after observing this whole matter for many months, and Hayden for many years.
@smilehexe
As bad as I want to agree. I will go ahead and agree with you by saying that they are a “couple” (it dosen’t feel right by saying it) But I’ve been putting the clues alllll together for a long while now,and I’ve been telling myself that they are together. BUT I just dont get why in the Hell would she tell the whole worltd that she’s happy with Hayden TWICE in TWO magazine interviewa (PlayBoy and GQ). I guess Hayden makes her sooo happy that she couldn’t hold it in,because when she was with Adam she kinda told EVERYthing the relationship. This may sound like jeaoulusy,BUT I don’t think It’ll last. It just dosen’t feel right at all. I can see him with a woman that’s more private and away from the limelight,like an un-known,or just a beautiful girl who dosent care for the fame and who is willing to sacrifice Hollywood to live on a farm with no electricity(which Hayden says he has).
I’ve noticed on alot of pictures that Rachell Bilson likes to read tabloid magazines like: Star,or somin like that. Why would a celeb want to pick up tabloid magazines when they are suppose to dread and stay away from them.Its just something I dont like about Bilson,ofcourse she may look 16 and pretty at the same time,but she’s really irritating me at this moment AND about the kissing in public. oh please (lol) If people are in love then it shouldn’t matter whos watching,couples would kiss in public anyway,I mean does he wait till he’s in doors to kiss..that’s pretty awful to wait and kiss-hug,when you’re out of LA or out the streets.If they are together,then I can barely see it! I guess hayden wants to be soooo private about it ,that he waits to kiss and hug out of public view (which is fu**kin stupid if you ask me).I still have my doubts,but at the same time I believe the two are together,Im brain washed just like everyone else!
I love rachel. LOL@ #30

@Bad Girl
That has nothing to do with being brain-washed, just with having eyes. ;-) Like you I also used to see Hayden with the woman you describe for a possible future, but now I’m not so sure if he ever was who he pretended to be. S.M. could have been one mistake of “blindly in love”, but now repeating that with Bilson does not show much intelligence on his side, sorry. In the meanwhile I think the intelligence part with him was highly overrated.
And as to Bilson saying “she is so happy in love” blah blah… well, keep in mind that Bilson would say ANYTHING she thinks could bring her another movie part or any public attention. I would not take that very serious, as less as the stuff she usually let’s out. She’s not reliable (and neither is Hayden though, and probably no other “celebrity”). They have a public face, which is a mask. I just liked Hayden so much for seeming so real and honest, but I was wrong, I’ve admitted that to myself in the meanwhile. He’s not better than other ones. And by now he seems so trained by a coach that he always more is like all the others out there willing to do whatever it takes for gaining success.
And Bilson does not look so very happy to me, she has this standard smile she switches on whenever a camera is on her - but that’s not coming from heart. She even often seems kind of grumpy.
Same goes for Hayden, but he was never the “happy type” (which I prefer anytime to “all time-grinners”). I also don’t have the impression he is more happy when being without her - generally he just seems tired and bored, like probably every other guy is too who has to do a work he does not like. He once said he likes acting from “Action” to “Cut” but not the promotion and stuff around it, and that I still believe him. It’s more than obvious, although he is an actor he never managed to hide that part anyhow believable.
@Smilehexe
Your right. Hayden even spent the night with S.M. and It seem like he was just going straight for the looks of her and not the brain,he said he likes “spunky” girls,so he’s trying a little bit too hard to have a girl in his life. He’s jumping the gun too quick. Here you have Rachel B. single from Adam and there is a hottie by the name of Hayden,so ofcourse she’s gonna pounce on him like a peice of steak…she sure idi get over Adam quick,laughing and flirting with Hayden on set. WTF. I don’t like Rachel for Hayden because Hayden is the COMPLETE oppostie of Rachel,it’s like a dog f***ing a mouse. a completley NON-match!,IN ALL THE PICTURES. I don’t see laughing,rachel hitting hayden in the arm,smilling constantly( like in the teen for jean add),so to me this all seems FAKE as in being on camera and off! wtf is going on lol,one minute in candids there isn’t no body languauge or smilling closeness going on,then the next infront of the cameras there are laughing,smilling acting like a couple. I can honestly say that I still have my doubts,you know. I mean maybe it could be a publicity stunt,that has everyone fooled in the end,because IM SORRY BUT,WHEN HAYDEN IS REALLY,REALLY INTO A GIRL…YOU CAN DEFINATLEY TELL. example number one-Natalie P. even though he wasnt in a relationship with her,,,still he showed some laughing and effection. example number 2-S.M.,hello Hayden wasnt aware of the paps (that i can see) and he slept over with her,took her to dinner more than once,been to his hometown,kissed her..and blah blah,and I f I want to believe that Hayden and MS.Bilson is an item,then I would believe it by seeing a little effection or laughing or SOMETHING. DAMN! I don’t see anything. f**k what Bilson said in those interviews,and the H pendnat whatever! she;s probably playing the media …as always. sorry so long.
Rachel left the premiere with Hayden’s mom. she ate dinner with the family after the Awake premire,they were together without a doubt at the Awake premire.she’s around his family alot these days:mother,grandma,brother Tove. She has been pretty much everywhere with Hayden. Dubai,grocery shopping,furniture shoppin,out to dinner,Brothers house,her house,airport,driving her car back to her house and around LA. It does seem like they are dating,the more I think hard about it,but at the same time,Im f**kin confused,even though I do stand by everything I say. They just dont seem like a couple or a good match! He needs better.OPEN YOUR EYES HAYDEN!!!!
@Bad Girl
S.M. a “spunky” woman? Well, if never be totally there but in a condition of drunk and/or in drugs is surely “spunky”… NOT! Sad LOL.
Bilson falling for Hayden himself, or falling for the fact that he is a little bigger name than Adam Brody?! At least Hayden had done theatrical movies, not just worked for TV. Surely Bilson is aware of that fact too (and already was in Rome as she was hitting on Hayden WHILE still being with Brody who even visited her there. Clearing my throat, as this behavior speaks for itself.)
And IF all this is just a media stunt, and Hayden is fully involved in that without having real emotions towards Bilson, does that make him to a better person? I don’t think so!
@Bad Girl
Your quote: “They just don’t seem like a couple or a good match! He needs better.OPEN YOUR EYES HAYDEN!!!!”
Concerning partnerships everybody gets what he/she chooses, right? And a Hayden Christensen would surely have more chances with women than just having to take this one in order “not to be alone”.
To spend his time with this shallow nutshell is HIS OWN DECISION. I don’t think we have to pity him now. He’s a grown up, even if it does not seem so anymore sometimes lately. ;-)
@Smilehexe
Thanks for the compliment about my post on the other thread. I was just stating how I felt just coming into all this. I respect your opinion even though I don’t agree with it. It’s a very well thought out opinion and stated without malice towards anyone. But, I do, with all due respect, disagree with you on your comments made in posts #54 & #57 to a certain degree. You’re absolutely right. Christensen isn’t who a lot of people think he is. He’s not all good and sweet like a lot of people want to believe. He has his flaws and problems which the affairs of the heart may be one of those issues he has. That doesn’t make him a bad person though. That doesn’t make him a “celebrity.” That makes him HUMAN. He just doesn’t air it out for all to see or at least tries not to. The problem may be not that he’s not as intelligent as you thought he was because even the most intelligent people make some really stupid mistakes and decisions and sometimes more than once. Especially if it has to do with a major issue they are trying to grapple with if known or the may not even be aware that they have that issue yet. Since no one here has that access pass into his everyday life, we can’t know things for certain. Unless you have that physically there, actually hang out, talk at length with him, his family, his close friends, you can’t know all the facts even though you may have been observing from AFAR for years. There’s much more going on behind closed doors and out of the public view that NO ONE except those directly involved know about. Not all the puzzle pieces are for the public’s view and you need those pieces in question to get to the real truth of the matter. That’s not going to happen. Since it’s not going to happen, there’s no point in speculating and saying something is the truth when it very well may not be.
But, again with all due respect, saying Christensen was pretending to be someone he wasn’t or who you thought him to be isn’t at all fair. Of course he didn’t show every aspect and facet of his personality to complete and total strangers. Most don’t. And, that’s what his fans and the world’s population in general are to him. Strangers. Most he has never met and probably never will. He’s not going to share his innermost secrets and fears with any of us out here. He’s going to be polite and nice and respectful yet remain undeniably aloof. Of course he wants to keep a part of himself away from public consumption. That’s not too much to ask for. We all want that because it’s a basic human need. Even the media ***** Bilson wants that to some extremely tiny degree. It’s hard to see it but she does show it every now and then. Long periods in between when she wants it, hell yes. But, she does want it. And, yes, coming out into the public eye demands a certain level of loss in privacy but what he’s asking for isn’t a part of that. He’s asking for common decency. He’s got his issues like everyone else does. He’s got his damage that he needs to work through and fix on his own.
“Brainwashed” isn’t the right term. “Idolizing” is the right term. Putting someone known as a “celebrity” up on a pedestal so high that you don’t allow them to be human. And, of course they are going to fall off that pedestal over time when more and more of the tiny views of their different sides of their personality and what they are personally dealing with come to light ever so briefly. And, you can’t believe what people say even though many different people say the same thing without hardcore proof. It’s still only hearsay. Without the proof of photographs or videotape, it can still be denied with very little effort. There are several reasons for Christensen to have been spending so much time in LA that could very well not involved Bilson as to why he really came. He is going producer and he is beginning to take a more active role as a producer in his company. That has nothing to do with Bilson and it would still require him to be in LA a lot. He could very well just been hanging out with her as friends while he was there on his off time. Since he doesn’t spend too much time in LA normally he could very well not have too many friends his age that he can hang out with there. Very valid possibility. Or, then again, they might be or at least were dating. WE DON”T KNOW FOR SURE. WE”RE NOT IN ANY POSITION TO KNOW THAT FOR SURE. WE DON”T PERSONALLY KNOW THEM. It can go either way with very little ease. And, appearances especially from AFAR are extraordinarily deceiving. Until you or anyone of us are in that inner circle, can’t say anything either way with any conviction or certainty. We can only say what we think and how we feel and our individual opinions. Each and every one of us are entitled to our opinion and it should be respected but we can’t make claims as to what the truth really is. We’re not and most likely never will be in that position.
cant be for her passport
for your passport you arent allowed to smile like that on the photo and you gotta tuck your hair back behind your ears. gotta be for something else..
and yawnnnnnnnnn can this girl BE any more boring..
no sex tape. no meth addiction. no late night 2am shopping sprees, why are we still reading this crap about this nobody????
I love Rachel
sweet i realy love her oh
@Rosemadder
You’re welcome for the compliment on your other post, as you really know how to express yourself, and I admire that. Also I really liked the first part of it as said before.
Now I just want to reply to a few points you made in your latest post directed to me:
I have not CLAIMED anything about Hayden Christensen, but always stated that this is just my personal opinion due to observations I did for some years (since 2002). And yes, from AFAR, I’ve never said something else.
I used to defend Hayden just like you do, but now not anymore. And no matter if he and Bilson are just friends or more, HE SPENDS TIME WITH HER, which shows me (and again, JMO) that he is not disturbed by her shallow way, so he can not be that “profound” himself either. Bilson stands for superficiality. Sorry, but an intelligent person would run away from Bilson as far as his feet would carry him as alone everything which leaves the mouth of this girl is only hot air, not to talk about the rest she does.
I’ve heard from several sides that he is hard working on his farm and in his company… but sorry, I cannot SEE that, so I call that hearsay too. Just during the past year he was in L.A. so often, doing useless things like giving Bilson a ride or go shopping for pet food (HER dog) or furniture or in a home depot (surely not for the farm as in Canada they have own home depots I guess). Several holidays just rounded up that impression. He loves to TALK about his farm in interviews, yes, probably as it’s an innocuous subject in his opinion. Some fans also might like this idea of the “romantic farm life” and add that he would not even have electricity there if he just said he tries to produce it himself in a “green” way. ;-) But if you count two and two together from his other sightings/activities there is JUST NO TIME LEFT that he actually could do much HIMSELF at home. If he has people hired doing that for him, is another subject, but that does not make him hard working.
As to the productions, I always search for FPP mentioned in credits with movies since 2003, and I watch many movies, but they are never in except “SG”. Weird, eh? I already started to doubt that this firm still exists… then they have/had a branch in Toronto as well, don’t you think that with modern technologies (consider his parent’s business here!) it would not be possible to live in Canada and still be part of the business? I cannot imagine that, sorry. If every boss would always have to be in his headquarters himself not much would be going on in our world. Cell phones, laptops and wireless data transfer have been invented for something I guess. ;-)
Then personal problems… I fully agree to you saying that these things do not belong into public. I TOTALLY agree to that. But we all have them, many personal issues, and still we have to go out and do our jobs/fulfill our responsibilities etc., don’t you think? Or is an actor something “better” IYO who has own valid rules for that? That is the difference between kids and adults - the adults have to make it work somehow, no matter how hard it seems. That’s a process of maturity and experiences. Personal problems cannot be an apology for everything.
Seeing Hayden as a HUMAN with flaws etc… I always did, no doubt about that. I’m the last person to have idealized him too much. Just for being so human and seeming honest I loved him most, as this was so special in a business like this in which fake and insanity is on the agenda (I just mention Britney Spears without further comment, and she’s not the only one). And I totally understand that also these people want to keep parts of their lives private, and I do respect that, although I cannot see that wish in Bilson at all, no matter how hard I try. She seems to enjoy being in public far too much for my taste to be taken seriously in any matter. I think if she could she would do even more for seeing her name in print, and I agree to those statements earlier in this thread that she would even be in a show like “Big Brother” if she saw no other chance for so-called “fame”. She has to compensate her lack of talent with something I guess, as leading just a regular life seems not very appealing to Miss Bilson.
But I think it’s obvious Christensen has changed for about the last year or so… or maybe even earlier as I suppose it didn’t come overnight but was a process of development. Bilson is just one part of it. You call him so “polite” and “respectful” towards people… with these words just two things come into my mind which were not respectful towards his fans at all… but as I don’t want to start another painful discussion full of hatred over here I prefer to not going into detail here. And please don’t tell me that fans have no right at all etc., as I have heard that too often and do not agree to it in any way. Fans are the people after all who make this business work, and if somebody wants to be in it and earn good money with it he/she has to accept that.
What?? Only 3 Rachel Bilson posts a day?? That’s so unfair. Her reps aren’t doing a good enough job.
You’re slipping Jared. I demand 12 a day minimum.
Your complaining about another Rachel thread but your here posting! LOL Why do you always find your way back to these if you dont want to see anymore.Just dont bother looking at them.Its simple!
Thanks Jared!!! Rachel is so cute
My Beautiful Rachel ! Thanks
@I - # 68
You’re totally right! Call it easy “entertainment” when being a little bored sometimes. ;-)
so LS is present here
blahhh what’s up with her hair??? -.-
Rachel is a good girl
There’s nothing eco-friendly about a ‘hybrid’ SUV!
It’s just good ol marketing B-S.
Smilehexe , Forest Park Productions must still be a company because they are listed on the Beast of Bataan page on IMBD.
Thank you Rosenmadder, Smilehexe, Bad Girl, Irishdreams and Nova Lee! I appreciate all your posts and Rosenmadder taking the time to explain yourself so well. Well done!
It look’s like I, Tessa, Marta and Sue and some of Rachel’s PR and sock puppets came out to say their two cents worth! Good luck w/ that!
Hi Raven! :-)
These people/girls don’t have to say much… just always one little sentence that they “like her” or the way she dresses etc. - it’s ridiculous. Having an own opinion looks different! On the other hand, they fit to their “idol”, don’t you think?! :lol:
rachel the pill is so dull as a dail tone. not to mention useing peeps to get her name out there. promoting the movie fine. but don’t pull a paris,britney,and even yoko romo.(if anyone who is a dallas cowboy fan and a texas citizen nows what iam talking bout). more and more she is putting her foot in her mouth. when that happenes she would be so far in a hole and she could not dig her dingy self out of. nuff said…
LOL@int
dont forget : “Rachel Bilson wipes back to front, instead of front to back in toilet cubicle. Breaking News!”
I like your comment Rosemadder I don’t feel and never have that these two are anything but co-workers they have a movie to promote and they have to do that together another reason they hang..I see Hayden working in LA more then hanging out..And two photo’s in a months time doesn’t prove a thing it wasn’t dinner or holding hands going to a premier not something of his..and they don’t come out ONLY Rachel she is the one doing all the fashion shows and premiers..SHe is the lime light queen and I don’t think she dislikes it one bit..she adores it. Someone claimed she hangs with his family Show me where she hangs with his family never one picture of them but, at Awake and she was Hayden’s guest that night to go so it would be said she would be with his close friends and family for a dinner..She to what I see on the outside doesn’t show outside interest in Hayden family but maybe Tove as he is in LA..Forest Park I heard does foreign commericals more then movies thus the reason you don’t see the name on movies.
When Hayden is with Rachel he never smiles but when he is not with her i see him smile i don’t get it?
@67 Smilehexe
I’m sorry if you misunderstood me and thought I said or thought you to be anything more than stating your opinion and stating it from afar. That wasn’t my intention in the slightest.
And, for the record, I’m playing devil’s advocate to prove a point. There’s too many variables in this proverbial equation. All the arguments are only opinion and assumptions and a single person can play both sides. That tells a person something very profound about all this and that’s that no one knows the truth. We don’t know what’s going on nor really should we know. We don’t know what’s going on with Christensen and what’s going through his head. Yes, actions speak louder than words. I wholeheartedly agree. But, we must also keep in mind that we don’t know the reasons, intentions, and train of thought behind those actions which is just as equally important. Unlike Bilson, his intentions, reasons, and train of thought aren’t as easily visible. And, he’s made it that way. There is a such thing as cause and effect. We’ve only really seen the effect. We haven’t and more than likely never will see and know about the cause. Not on his end. My point was that there’s too much that could be responsible for it and as fans and the world’s population in general have no right to see it.
Some fans have the mistaken idea that their rights are equal to that of close friends and family only because the person in question is a so called “celebrity.” They forget their true place in the scheme of things. Those fans are complete and total stranger to that “celebrity” in question and odds are they will always be that way. Fans don’t normally go out for coffee with the person; they don’t spend any physical time hanging out with that person getting to know them in person despite the wanting to. Christensen doesn’t, in the words of a line from “The Devil Wears Prada,” “discuss every facet of his decision-making then brush each other’s hair and gab about American Idol” with his fans. That’s asking for too much. He doesn’t answer to his fans for the decisions and choices he makes in his personal life. He doesn’t drag it out in detail for public view and consumption therefore it’s not the fans’ business. It’s not anyone’s business because he hasn’t made it our business. Bilson is trying to but he hasn’t. If it wasn’t for Bilson, everyone probably wouldn’t know as much, true or imagined, as they do. Most gossips don’t give a damn about him. The only true times they talk about him is when he’s with or possibly with one of his co-stars romantically. And, those co-stars happen to be media hounds. Put two and two together on that one. Who are the ones dragging it out in public? It definately doesn’t look like it’s Christensen but there’s still that doubt and not knowing what’s going on in the background; behind the scenes. Unless any of us are there involved in the thick of it, none of us will ever know.
There’s several possible reasons as to why his company hasn’t been doing any films since 2003. They could’ve have done more in the TV vein or, as Irishdreams stated, foreign commericals. They are doing that Beast of Bataan flick which was confirmed by Variet and Hollywood Reporter. IMDB is far from the most reliable source for information of films since it’s not kept up with too much current information all the time. So, the company is still around. You have to remember that Christensen’s company isn’t one of the big ones. They’re smaller, more indie. Projects for them don’t come around as often as the bigger production companies despite the fact there’s quite a few scripts floating around every year. Just because there’s quite a few scripts floating around doesn’t make them any good or what they want to do. Then factor in the Writer’s Strike as of recently which only compounds the problem that they most likely have been dealing with for so long. Without the writers, everything comes to a screeching halt. None of the writers with the guild can write anything both TV and film. True, more for TV than for film but film is still very much affected by it. Especially the smaller production companies.
Fans don’t know the details of these things. Hell, I’m onl pointing out an educated guess not fact. As fans, we don’t have the right to be in on the behind the scenes details. It’s the same as going up to his front door and knocking without being invited first. We have the right to like or dislike his work. We have the right to think what we want but we don’t have the right to think we have the right to be behind that curtain without a specific invite by himself. He hasn’t done that. Saying that fans do is like saying stalking is legal. Because that’s what it would be. Stalking. All because he played a character up on the screen that wasn’t really him. You can’t say he’s changed when you don’t really know what and who he truly was to begin with. Not without personally knowinghim
Hey nobody answered my post #83
Continuing from my last post:
Personal problems aren’t an apology for anything. And, he doesn’t owe anyone an apology. No, actors aren’t “better” than anyone else but they do, like everyone else, have personal problems. The only difference is for “celebrities” they tend to slip into public view more often whether they want them to or not. But, you can tell the difference between the accidental slipping out and the on purpose. Christensen’s pretty much is the accidental. If it’s accidental, than it should just be let be. Saying that he can’t deal with his personal problems out of the public eye just because he’s a “celebrity” and those problems tend to show a little more than most who aren’t in that position is denying him to be what he is, HUMAN. And, why should he owe anyone an apology? He hasn’t done anything heinous or broken any laws. He hasn’t slighted anyone personally. He’s lived his life. That’s something that deserves an apology from him? With all due respect and no offense intended, but that’s completely ridiculous and total BS. (not mocking) It’s the same as expecting him to say “Oh, I’m sorry for being alive and breathing. Gee, my bad.” At least he’s not going off the deep end like Spears is. He’s a shy, quiet, private guy for the most part who is living his life how he chooses. He has that right even if he is a “celebrity.” We may not agree with or even fathom some of the things he does and decides to do but that’s his choice and it’s his life. He doesn’t owe an apology to anyone for that. If it doesn’t hurt anyone but himself, not his fans, than why ask for an apology or expect one? If it does hurt anyone else, it’s the ones closest to him and he doesn’t have to or should get up on the proverbial soapbox and make a public apology to them. Again, that’ll go down behind the scenes; something we won’t ever see.
And, I totally agree. It’s very difficult to see Bilson wanting that part out of view of the public. Extremely hard. But, she does disappear for a week or two every now and then. She does for that week or two, stay out of the public eye. It’s not often to put it mildly but it’s still there. Just have to really look for it which does say something about Bilson.
@Rosemadder
Thanks for your long and specific post.
Still we do not agree at one big point which concerns the rights of fans. They have some IMO. Surely stalking somebody is NOT one of them, and I would never say stalking is harmless. It’s the opposite.
But still fans are allowed to have open eyes I think and OBSERVE things (from far, not molesting of course), and that’s not like knocking on his front door without being invited, which I would not do BTW, as that’s just not my way. Home is my castle, and I fully grant that to “celebrities” as well. And of course family and friends have more right to advise him in something, but they also have more possibility to do so. In fact he should be happy and proud that he impressed some people so much that they take their time to think about him and mean it good with him. Where is positive, there is also negative, I am aware of that, but still the fact that he touched some people’s heart that much (in a positive way) should not disturb him but please him somehow (in a quiet way, like it fits to Hayden, I don’t expect a huge party for all fans now ;-) ).
And if Hayden is getting himself involved with “media hounds” as you explain yourself just hitting the nail right on it’s head, he doesn’t have to wonder if he ends up being considered on the same level than the people he’s with. The moment something happens around him going public it becomes a matter which probably will be discussed. And in this case it’s not like the paps came into his private home with cameras and forcing something. He goes out voluntarily with Bilson and hangs around in L.A. where the paps are far more aggressive than in his home town, so where is the big deal if people talk about it? In fact the studio behind “Jumper” will even enjoy all this attention now. Hayden surely not, I agree, but he put himself into that situation. And if you say his reasons are not as visible as Bilson’s, well, I think it are basically the same - to ensure that “Jumper” will be a success, as his career depends just as much on this than hers. And that gossip sites/magazines are only interested in him when being (maybe) romantically linked to the female co-star, well that’s an old story and has been used several times already to sell a movie. Still it’s Hayden himself ALLOWING all this to happen with him as the second main person. So it’s kind of unfair to just speak Bilson guilty, or Liman as some fans do, as even if there is a contract about all this somewhere in the background, Hayden has signed it too.
Due to these reasons in my eyes he has changed, from what I was able to watch at least, and even without knowing him personally this is my impression.
Concerning the foreign commercials of FPP, I live in Europe (German speaking area) and therefore cannot know about this of course. Once I also heard Tove was interested in a car show for TV, but if that was ever realized I don’t know. This surely would have found some interest I guess, mostly with guys, but not only.
Bravo again RM..
Yes Hayden doesn’t own anyone explainatins to his private life..But when he does come out on the few occassions he does interviews you know it was for the job reasons and not because he is a celebrity..I don’t get the same feeling from Rachel..I believe she enjoys this lifestyle she has created for herself..and granted she can enjoy it..but to exploite it in the media to me screams volumes..To assume we understand Hayden and his reasons would be nuts..we can’t and we don’t..To me in my view of his verbal interviews and photo’s and thats all anyone really has to go by as magazines are not reliable for the most part. but the word of the person is..so going on that I would say he acts and looks happier when he is working or when he is promoting and doing his thing..I don’t think he enjoys too much media attention and I dont think he ever will, I see Rachel will and does enjoy it and thus will continue to do what make her happy. I don’t see either of them happy completely when they are around each other but, again that is observation not based on knowing them. I believe eventually Hayden will move into totally producing seems he started this business with his brother and I think he might someday want more hands on experience with the Forest Park. He always says he is a homeboy and will never leave his home in Canada totally he will for business but not to live elsewhere. To me right now as the observer I feel what he wants is not to be tied down, to enjoy his career, and go back to his home in Canada where he can be the normal man and not the celebrity. I don’t feel Rachel will want the same thing that hayden does..And I too see her in her place of comfort which is LA..

It would be hard to know what commercials FPP would do because commericals never tell you who produced them..Movies are the only ones what do this. It seems FPP had a few losses with movies..the Crash Bandits never got off the ground and a few others..but could be the rest of what FPP does will.
As for the Fans rights..Really no fan has rights to a celebrity private life..they have the right to enjoy what that person does if it appeals to you or others..Bottom line is celebrities whether they are politicians, movie actors, or sports stars sign up for this and they want the popularity..and with popularity comes a price and the fans are what sells the celebrity. Many celebrities I’m guessing who leave the business get tired of being sout out by the press or photographers..If you ever heard of how the paparazzi are paid to do what they do you would understand better why a celebrity avoids them..One ex pap wrote a book on what she had to do to get a story..from digging in the celebs trash to setting them up with other press agents in a bar so they can get a trashy picture..which then is plastered in a magazine saying so in so cheated on their g/f.. Then you do have some celebrities who enjoy the press and photographers..and know they needs them to sell themselves to the public eye..for whatever it is they do from modeling, movies or TV..They need fans and unfortunatly they need the press..some celebs adore this others’ don’t..I don’t see Hayden liking the exposuer only when necessary but I do see Rachel as liking it..
@Rosemadder - to your added post
When did I ever ask for an apology of Hayden?! And even a public one? What for?! As you say, he never did something really bad or even against the law, and I never claimed that.
This saying I meant generally, concerning all people, actors and the other ones. ;-) I just tried to say that even personal problems would not be an apology for me for the way I see Hayden behave in public now (e.g. the bloopers reel of this PSA-ad, and some more things).
And going out with Miss Bilson does not mean that something is slipping out “accidental” but always on purpose. This is like going to a friend whom I know is spreading things telling her a secret and ask her please not to tell. In this fictive scenario I could be sure that the secret would make its rounds, and so it is with Bilson.
And Bilson retreating for about two weeks? I cannot talk about what Bilson did before she met Hayden as I truly was not interested in her at all (and still would not be if it was not for Hayden)… but since that Rome-trip the only times I saw her disappearing was around Christmas time each year, and this last holidays she WAS SAID TO HAVE SPENT in Canada with Hayden and his family (not proven, just rumors, for the record). So there probably no paps were available who would get into their cars and meet her “accidental” after she called them as she simply does not know the right people there to call, or MAYBE also Hayden said something finally to her about it all, that he is kind of nerved by this situation (and who could blame him?!) and she “obeyed” him for a while to make good weather again not to take the risk that he could jump off the whole plan, if with or without a contract (her plan to be with him, or the studio’s with contract, whatever).
Fact is, the moment she returned to L.A. her media game went on, and totally in her old habits. Observing her doing during the whole past year she used Hayden (again, with his permission as he was deciding to be with her) whenever he was there and used the time without him to be seen by doing other “important” things like shopping, fueling her car, presenting a new hair style, walking the dog in high heels (maybe the only good trait in her I can see, that she seems to love Thurmen Murmen), and shopping again. Oh, and once she was at a sports game with Hattie, which of course was documented by photographs, as was the day she took the kid to the set of a TV-show, again with pictures taken of course which made it even more “credible”. The rest of time she started to wear this silly “H”-necklace to heat up the rumors even more.
So to me this girl needs no privacy as she seems to breath the air much fresher when it is between her and a camera. LOL
And I surely don’t take the time to “really look” after Bilson’s emotions deep inside, sorry, as this girl already works on my nerves enough with all the things she does in public. ;-) I’m always glad I don’t see her. She’s simply too omnipresent for my taste.
Smilehexe, we can talk about your other post about Hayden not being respectful to his fans.we can talk it through email,BUT I don’t want to give my email out to everyone on here,only to you. :)
@ Rosemadder
To be honest with you,your opinions make you seem like a Hayden fan that thinks they know EVERYTHING about him,when you are stating facts,and being a little bit to strong with it,like you knnow the truth,when me and Smilehexe sounds like we have the better and opinion and the truthful side of what we have been seeing now and of the past. And stop saying that it’s non of our business,no duh its non of our business,BUT US AS FANS HAVE THE RIGHT TO KNOW A little something,I mean if he didn’t have fans,he wouldn’t be s*** (that sounded mean but oh well!)
@Smilehexe
LOL Sorry. I have a tendency of being long winded because I prefer to state my thoughts and reasons behind what I think and believe. No one on here is a mind reader that I know of so how could the know my reasoning unless I state it? Yes, we’re going to disagree on the rights of fans which I’m completely fine with. Nothing wrong with that. We can agree to disagree with no hard feelings between us whatsoever. :D
AAH! I got you now. Christensen “allowing” it therefore being just as guilty is in regards of the roles he chooses which do affect his personal life and bring out that personal life to a certain degree for the public to see. Yes, I agree with you on the aspect that he might want to think his choices film and career wise over a little more carefully due to that just mentioned respect. He’s not exactly ‘allowing” all the BS but the choices he’s made certainly haven’t helped the effect of the level of publicity it’s pretty clear he doesn’t want. I think he understands completely that he’s going to get a certain level of publicity being in that business and he’s fine with that. It comes with the territory. The price a person pays for being in that business. He’s come to terms with that. And, I think he’s completely fine with the fans of his that have come to care about him over these past few years. It’s the obsessed ones that I think he has a problem with and rightfully so. I’m talking about and have always been talking about the ones who are trying to be that authority and say for certain that the know something about his personal life when they don’t and it’s just their opinion but say that it’s the truth. The ones who want to know what he eats for breakfast everyday and what time he goes to bed and gets up in the morning. THOSE people.
Here’s just my opinion; what I think and believe. NO HARDCORE FACTS OR SAYING SOMETHING IS THE TRUTH WHEN I FRANKLY DON”T KNOW FOR SURE. (I practice what I preach. LOL) Just putting that disclaimer out there. This is not to be taken as gossip. Just my opinion and mine alone.
Christensen is still grappling with the idea of fame. He’s still a fish out of water. He loves the craft of acting and filmmaking and loves it so much he’s not going to walk away from it but he’s still trying to find his footing and how to have both the art and craft he loves so much but still retain that privacy he needs and craves. That’s where and how he’s taking a beating. A horrible beating. He’s still finding his way and testing the varies different waters and ways to obtain both which can be done. Quite a few before him have done it. Pacino, De Niro (for the most part), Ford, Denzel Washington, Hoffman, Hackman, Depp just to name a few. But, they screwed up on it in the beginning too in varies degrees for each of them individually. He’s learning what projects he wants to do and some of them come back to bite him in the a**. But, that’s what you get when you do things that appeal to you. You might get the level of publicity you don’t want or you might not. Like most of everything in that business, it’s a huge gamble that’s only surpassed by Wall Street or any of the other stock markets. That’s that business and he knows and understands it. Doesn’t mean he has to like certain aspects of it.
His personal problems come into it in the form of he’s looking for love very actively. He knows he needs that special someone and he knows she MUST be in that industry to understand where he stands and such. He needs that special someone badly so he’s going after it in the form of dating his co-stars which doesn’t help in the publicity department. Since most of the women in Hollywood right now are like Miller and Bilson, he’s trying to find that woman in the sea of the ones like them. You do have to wade through a lot of crap to find that person or kiss a lot of proverbial frogs before you find that proverbial princess (in his case. LOL) The thing is…that girl for him might not even be in the industry yet. She just might only be still coming into it. A still unknown filmmaker who hasn’t let her presence be known yet because she might not be ready for that yet. Maybe, just maybe, patience isn’t one of his virtues and he’s trying to beat the wall down before it’s time to do that.
Because of all that, certain things appear to be one thing when in reality they are something totally different. Hence, why we don’t know anything for certain but that’s just my opinion and mine alone.
@Bad Girl
These things are to find in public as well, and probably you know them, observer that you seem to be, like me. ;-)
Would also like to e-mail you but not giving out my addy all public. Are you registered on IMDB?
@BAD GIRL
No, no one’s opinion is better than someone else’s. I thought I made that clear. And, no, I don’t know anything for certain. Not even me. That’s what I’ve been constantly saying. I’ll be the first one to admit it. I don’t really know. I’ve just been stating my opinion and POSSIBLE reasons for it. NOTHING FOR CERTAIN.
@Rosemadder
Now I had a good laugh on your post, but not an evil one. :-)
I agree to the first part of your post concerning Hayden in movie business not really have found his place yet. Otherwise, he’s in it since he was a child, first not intense but already getting a bit of what to expect I guess.
And in the meanwhile he has chosen to become and stay an actor (as for e.g. studying architecture he would have still been young enough for a long time). So he likes the advantages: the acting itself, lots of money, lots of leisure time, both bringing him great freedom financially and time wise which he surely knows to appreciate. (And yes, I also don’t see him as the most patient person ever. LOL)
But - like every other thing in life - also this “dream job” for some people (not me BTW) has disadvantages as well, as not having a regular hiring and income, so insecurity. Then, of course, the public. There are only two possibilities for him, take it or leave it. If he wants to do it and stay in this business, he’ll have to cope with fame too. And let’s be honest, it’s not that hard on him than on e.g. a Brad Pitt. I mean such people are really only to pity, I would go crazy in their place. But Hayden could still do two movies a year and spend the rest of the time quietly in Canada, and I’m sure he’d find his peace there.
Nobody can do this decision for him if he wants to take this job with the price it comes along or give it up and maybe finding something more suitable for him. (And I’m not talking about his acting here, to all you Star Wars-obsessed Hayden-bashers out there!) Young enough he is for any kind of job wise change, learning something totally different etc., financially independent he seems as well.
With what I cannot agree at all to is your opinion about him “having to find a woman, and only in movie business”. But like you said, without any hard feelings between us! :-)
Why do you think she’d have to work in that business to understand him?! No way I can agree to that. If this would be true every wife would have to be working in the same job than her husband… imagine a doctor here, or a cop, with all their erratic working schedules, often with unplanned missions, even by night! Or an engineer who goes abroad for a project for months or even longer… a pilot, whatever, there are many examples. Do you really think all these people’s partners need the same job to understand? No, no, and again no… shakehead. Spread this thought over the whole world, and nothing would function anymore. ;-) I think in every partnership you need lots of tolerance and understanding, no matter what the other one works. The ability of empathy to a certain point is a base to deal with people I think (if as lovers or just working partners).
And search actively for love? Well, I’ve also been pushed into that and it never worked, I can tell you that. I believe that love really can develop spontaneous and by accident only, and not planned in any form. All these blind dates, advertisements in papers or online… just forget it. Call me over-romantic, but that’s what I believe in. I don’t think someone can leave the house and tell him-/herself: “Today I’ll find my dream partner.” No way that this works. What one can do is to go out open minded and not block him-/herself, but walk through the surroundings with open eyes, by hoping not to expect too much and then be too disappointed. But there the control one has ends IMO.
And Hayden would have plenty of possibilities to meet women… he has to go shopping where he lives, he could do some charity (not for public, but quietly and regularly), a library… or even onset, but not an actress, as I agree to everything what you’ve said about them. There are the stylists, the ones doing the catering, it could be a female driver, whatever. And just after his bad/sad experience with S.M. I thought he would have checked that. He surely doesn’t depend on somebody of Miss Bilson’s (no)class just to be with somebody. And why try to force it anyway? Just let it happen… and as “far” (not!) as I see Hayden living relationships up to now it’s probably really better for him to wait a little longer and get more mature before heading into something wrong. No bad intention included in that saying, just my honest opinion.
@Smilehexe post #87
Good points, good points. Actually I never thought you didn’t have good points. Always well thought out and well said. Hats off to you. I really enjoy that about people like you. I really do respect your point of view, opinion and impressions for the record despite the fact we don’t agree on some points and aspects of our individual opinions. :)
And, also for the record, I wasn’t saying “you” for YOU in specific. Just “you” in general. Again, sorry if that was misunderstood. Wasn’t my intention in the slightest. :)
@Rosemadder
Thanks again for the compliment. (blush)
See, that with “you” is a problem based in German, we write “Du” if we address somebody directly but “du” if it’s just general… yet both stands for “you”… ts, ts, language problems, at almost 01:00 a.m. :lol:
But just like you I love to express myself as clear as ever possible, and sorry, also never in very short posts, and I enjoy such a good discussion as we had today just so much! :-)
Still I have to go to bed now, but I do hope we meet here again? For tonight I’m off, as a sleepless head cannot think properly and form other worth reading posts. ;-) Enjoy your day, to all US-people, and Good Night to the Europeans!
(I’m highly interested what you’ll have to say to my view on the “love matters”…)
When an celebrity signs the dotted line they know what to expect some might not expect as much as they get..as they can never truly know how successful something they do will be same goes for those in sports, music or politicians..They do expect some interference with their private life but, it is for them to control how much they want out and want said about it..That much control I do feel they have it’s all free will and they do what makes them comfortable. If Hayden didn’t approach this with his eyes wide open then he would be a fool, And I don’t think he did that. I just think in some respects he did more then he then he bargined for..But doing SW that is almost guarenteed a hit he pretty much figured he was a household name in a good way or bad..To trust anything but his own words would be a mistake many fans are going on articals published in magazines that many times are not all reliable..or what they seem to believe in photo’s since we don’t know the entire basis behind the actual photograph taken how can anyone truly know what is going on in any and all photo’s many just go on word of mouth by so called insider source..which is who possibly another journalist who doesn’t know the story any better then those who took the picture. I listened to a woman wrote a book she was a ex paparazzi who explained what is was to have to stalk out celebrities and how to interfere in their lives..from digging in their trash cans for what they eat, smoked, receipts and bills..to setting them up in bars with the paparazzi’s own people to get a fabricated story so they can sell it in their magazines..So because two people hang out doesn’t necessarily mean they date. and since we knowone knows hayden or bilson well enough to say yes or no then best not to assume it is true. As for if Hayden would pick a woman in the business I would think maybe only because as rosemadder stated she would understand and except what he did many actors will do that but you find they usually take a woman who is behind the scenes and not necessaily a co-star and if you look really close those actor and actress that do marry end up divorced in a few years later..To me hayden seems the kind of man who would not want to get too serious with a co-star I think whatever happened between him and SIenna might have opened his eyes as why not to date your co-star..The fans are just observers in these celebrities world..so in general we don’t know anymore the the paparazzi or reporters do.
I’ve taken no hard feelings for anything in all of this in the slightest! LOL It’s just two people who are sharing and discussing their individual opinions and points of view. That’s all. No harm in that. No one needs to take it personally.
In response as to why I think that woman for him MIGHT be someone in the industry. That business….well, that business is insane by nature and it is hard to comprehend a lot of it being on the outside of it. With him CHOOSING to be in it, it does have a lot of demands that most other people in different professions can’t handle. True, there have been a few that have been with someone in the business who were, in fact, not but they are a rare few. Then there’s the fact that he is an actor and the roles he might choose could very well demand a love scene between him and his co-star. Not too many woman can handle that even though knowing it’s not real (suppose to be anyway or at least not turn real. LOL) That kind of stuff does mess with one’s head and it’s hard to watch and take. All I know is I would have a very much hard time with it! LOL I can’t speak for anyone else but I at least can say that. But, I do very much agree with you on your idea of love. I think of it the same way personally but my point was MAYBE Christensen might not. He might not have come to that realization yet. It’s very much possible. He’s only 26. He’s still young. Just in my opinion, he SEEMS to be a overactive go-getter which lends to that reasoning of him actively trying to find that love and the lack of patience. He SEEMS not to like having to leave things to chance and that’s where he tends to get into trouble in not only that but other things in life as well. Hence why I said patience SEEMS to be not one of his virtues. Whether is going to succeed at it or he is succeeding at it…that’s a whole different story. Just my opinion.
I absolutely and totally agree with you he needs to wait a little while and let things happen however they may turn out. But, whether he does that or not, that’s up to him. We can only watch and occasionally shake our heads. LOL
@Irishdreams
Just read your post while finishing…
We fans do know more than journalists or paparazzi do I think. Why? Because usually somebody is only fan of one or very few people, so therefore watching these people better and REGULARLY. Add more time to think about this one person to it, and voila… the result is surely showing more than a paparazzo will know who follows person A today and person B tomorrow and does not really care about the person but how much money the photograph will make. I can see quite a difference in that.
@Rosemadder
Thanks for the quick reply. I’ll print that thing now and read it before turning off my bed light. LOL
But now I really have to go as I know myself… and otherwise I will spend the whole night sitting here in front of the computer. ;-)
@Irishdreams
Exactly! That’s what I meant when I said “unknown filmmaker.” Don’t know what she MIGHT be but there’s quite a few possibilities behind the camera hence why I said that. She could be a writer, a director, a producer or all three or an kind of combination thereof. The possibility is pretty much up for grabs with that one with saying “unknown filmmaker.” Just a valid possibility and only in my opinion. Who knows? It COULD happen like any other possibility other than that.
But, this isn’t speculating (thank god). This is discussing opinions rationally, intellectually and logically. It’s our personal view and take on things not gossiping. Opinions and impressions are very much valid on both sides and an opinion and impression CAN be wrong on either side. Mine very much included. This wouldn’t be the first time I was wrong about something and it sure as hell won’t be the last if that is so. Speculating and gossip would be saying something is true without any doubt whatsoever. Even if that side (in general) doesn’t really have the hardcore proof. We are only observers with no hardcore proof. But, we still have our opinions and impressions.

Sorry but, I do have to disagree with you us the fans have absoultly know understanding on what these people go through and we have no understanding what the press reporter or paparazzi is seeing before the picture is snapped. fan’s are only seeing an artical or a picture you aren’t there to see what is behind the scenes..so no fan’s don’t know more then a reporter or paparazzi I say fans see what they want to see and hence we get gossip and speculationl. For the actor this is a blessing and a curse because what we see is possibly something they don’t wish us to see. but that is what they get for being out there in this line of work..But then you have those celebrities that live off of it..and adore the interuption in their private life..like taking pictures of passports or gassing up their car..this isn’t something that the press just find this is a tip off by a press agent who wants her celebrity to get all the attention she can get for her..
I do think in some ways Hayden will try to find a woman who is interested in the some things he is she might not have to be in the business directly but maybe indirectly..Many actors marry outside of the business and many marry inside but most will marry producers, directors, fashion models or actors. I don’t have a clue what kind of woman Hayden would want but, I don’t think she would be an actress and that is only a hypothetical guess many actress’s love to have the center of attention praise and for someone who seems to avoid it. this would be like oil and water..
I take it that most of the girls posting here are Hayden Christensen fans. Its interesting that this thread has over 100 posts and yet a thread posted on the same day about Hayden has only 25. If you’re wondering why the paparazzi seem to think so many people are interested in Rachel you need to look no further than this very thread. Whether the posts are generally positive or negative, the bottom line is that traffic is traffic when it comes to the web. And traffic means advertising dollars.
So if you want the photographers to continue chasing Miss Bilson all over town, then just keep on posting.
Another thing about post #94
I don’t think, in my opinion, it’s the fact that he can’t handle the fame that comes with what he has chosen. I think it’s the finding that balance between the public and the private through the film and career choices that he’s having such problems with. He’s going in the right direction with the farm in Canada but what’s tripping him up is the film choices and the possibly dating his co-stars who happen to be media hounds since that’s, for the overwhelming majority, seem to be in Hollwood nowadays. All the women his age are that way it seems. And, with the possibility of dating his co-stars, it seems he’s choosing where his special someone is going to come from and do for a living. And, the contract possibility is something that is very valid if you think about it. The wording in the contract could have very well not have mentioned all this BS specifically but yet it was still there and fall under some other vague clause that would include it. Lawyers do that nonsense all the time. And, they COULD have said they weren’t going to do it but since it wasn’t in writing he got trapped into it. So..with that possibility, he could have very much got more than what he bargained for when he signed it. Again, it’s only a possibility but a very valid one.
But, the point is, I personally don’t think it has to do with the fact of accepting the fame itself which I don’t think he has a problem with but the balance of the public and private life that he’s still learning.
AGAIN JUST MY OPINION AND MINE ALONE. NO HARDCORE FACTS AND NOTHING FOR CERTAIN.
@jared
Point taken. I prefer to no longer help out the “traffic” for this twit but I got sidetracked with commenting to someone else. You are right. There’s other ways to do that don’t help out that site or her. So, if no one wants to see her anymore should just stop posting and there goes most of the “traffic” for her. But, one thing, maybe some of the people on here don’t want to not post on his thread to keep the photographers from wanting to go after him for just him and taking her instead since overexposure KILLS so called “careers.” Think about that?
Thanks for letting me read so much one-on-one rubbish, wasted my time looking at rubbish on TV, at least you socks had me ROTFLMAO.
@ Voice Of Reason,
Thanks for making your foolish debate. For anything that you say is rubbish and I’m convinced anything you do is rubbish and a waste of our time. You must be Rachel’s sock puppet and certianly on a mission to piss off Lola Skye who can care less! ROTFLAMO right back @ ya!
@voice of reason
aww sock puppets is that we are. or is that the best thing you can come up with. iam flattered to be put on someone’s hand to scratch the crap out of the air. frankly i don’t give a flying f*ck what you call us . we are expressing our opinions. so f*ck with a southern chick doll. you’ll get burned. now if you excuse me i have something better to do than argue with the wards of hell…..
waht i ment to say that do not f*ck with southern chick you would get burned. screw you. i had a blonde moment miss voice of reason!!
@ Nove Lee,
Thanks girl! @ Voice of Reason or AKA SPIDER. Who is the sock actually?? You’re entitled to your opinion granted but it does not mean people are going to agree w/ your f*cking azz bullsh*t!! LOL!!
There are more of us that can agree w/ actual reason then you!! So, go spin your spider web someplace else. If, you LOVE Rachel so much she does have her own fan site you know?? You would love Rachelb-france. Check it out and fantasize of Hayden and Rachel being together all you want.
Laugh all you want but, all you know how to do best is say we are sock puppets all the time. Well. @ least we are not afraid of simple arachnids or fear them. I rather enjoy swatting spiders!
@raven
anytime darlin. that is what socks do best lol.
@ Nova Lee,
Socks are good for one thing. Protection from getting gut’s on your bare feet when, crushing Spider’s!! LOL!!
@raven
you are so bad . bad to the bone. that would be a crushing blow. NOT !!lol
@ # 103
C’mon, J-MONEY! Bilson owes her tabloid career to her showbiz family; just type in her name at the IMDB name search and you will bring up several items. So just quit on “bluffing” everyone that you’re OC mascot is one genuine paparazzi magnet. Yet she could be but only in terms of just hiring a great publicist, pr agents & photographers that would document her everyday living that to be published on her patronized media sites. And they really get their work done huh, coz this imp gets threads everytime she gets out of her house, soo amazingly ridiculous!
And w/ her everything & everyday media stunts that she done for more than a year now, her credited project/s are still “intact” - those that she bagged only from her OC bosses. Those paps don’t just follow her around! Her connections/publicist pays them to do it and nobody would give a **** about her if it wasn’t for the paybucks! I must say that their/your hopes for Bilson were too high anyway. But she just an “empty nutshell” in every possible way as she dont even aspire to look that she have that “subtance” to begin with. Get real!
@Rosemadder
Your sentence with finding not the right balance between private and public life was what I meant with problems with being famous at all.
As to being jealous at your (potential) partner for love scenes with some other actress: The thing is, not directly during theses scenes the fire gets burning, as this is very unromantically done. But of course they also spend lots of time together otherwise on a movie set. If one can trust his/her partner this should not be a problem, and so it is in every job working with other people, but with Hayden I agree I’d also be worried, as he tends to start something on almost every set he works. Maybe it’s immaturity again, that he’s in love with being in love (the feeling itself, the kick, the “high” on being freshly in love), not the woman… but seen like that also Bilson has to worry if he starts working with the next starlet, ALTHOUGH she is a (so-called in this case) actress herself. ;-)
@Irishdreams
I totally agree to the point that such a couple would be like oil and water as you write in your second paragraph.
As up to the paps you are right to some point, but still I believe that if a fan is “following” the actions of a person (not literally of course!) over many years some picture comes out which is probably quite near. Maybe not if a 14-years-old girl does that, but in a certain age with some media experience and having learned sorting out in “could be/ never/maybe” there is the possibility.
@Raven & Nova Lee
Thanks for telling the Voice of Reason/Spider-sockpuppet what’s really on. ;-) This person is always lurking, never saying something productive which could support the discussion but bashing in with nasty comments. Not a very likable person indeed, neither here nor on another board.
@Jared (although not the “real” one, as this person would tell us to comment on and on… LOL)
I don’t like “lose ends”, this is why I’m setting this post. But I got the point as well and will shut up now.
@ JARED
OH PLEASE!
YOU ARE THE FAKE JARED,HE WOLD NOT POST ANYTHING LIKE THAT!!!! LMAO . GROW UP!!!!!
@ raven/ravenden/sg/Laureen etc
I would explain the concept of a sock to you, but you know it far better than I. LOL
Hubby must be proud with your swearing-do you speak like that in front of kids at the school you work at?
Perhaps you are just hired help, because so far all you can post is in’sular comments.
@ Voice of Reason AKA SPIDER!
OOhhhh! I must have hit a sore spot.
NO! Of course I don’t cuss @ work and I do have a steady job there helping special needs kids there. Something you would not understand or comprehend or even have the patience for being, a cold hearted b*tch that you are.
How many patient’s have you scared off from your cold demeanor or, have you actually killed any one yet.
Oh!! You now I’m Laureen from Dh.Net. I’m sure Jen is well aware of that! DUH!!! Is that the best you have SPIDER! VOR, SUE, Shark_bait or Sara!!
@ Voice of Reason,
Who are you?? Your not perfect. I know your f*cked up history! You are a fool girl. You tried and got in Lola skye’s business when it was non of your business. To get in Hayden’s or Lola’s private life. You don’t think Hayden can take care of himself?? This is why you got banned from Jen’s web site did you NOT?!! You are such a hypocritical azz!!
Look’s like some Spider needs to gain a life.
BTW~My hubby loves my swearing and all. He thinks I’m one major hot b*tch unlike you that has a sock stuffed up her azz!
Oh!! You must not be married and be lonely this is why you cause so much grief and bulling on the internet. Well. Start fixing yourself up and put down the Doritos and start working out and maybe you will find a sweet prince too like my scruffy swearing hubby!
Nuff said!!!
@raven
way to stick to that lowlife!! she hads no right to do that. so stick it to that good for nothing bulling hot tempered puiss head.
@voice of reason
well the truth hurts does it? well it does. soon as you get off your high chair and realize that we should not bow down and agree to your rants. BTW that is what they are. so my advice to you is to spin tyour web of negative vibes and hit pavement. now that is my two cents.
oh before i go and enjoy life. i leave you with a movie qoute. lady you don’t know sh*t bout sh*t!! oh i wonder you know what that movie qoute came from? io won’t tell you so don’t bother to ask any of us we won’t tell your sorry ass.
@ Nove Lee,
Thanks again darlin! It is funny. For Spider to get involved w/ Hayden’s personal life so much and to even get banned from Jen’s web site it, is funny to me she posts on the threads about Rachel Bilson more so then Hayden’s posts.
Oh!! Maybe she would like Miss. Bilson for herself!! LOL!!
@raven
yeah rally a pip. i know now that is creepy but funny at the same time. her and rachel disserve eachother.
me funny? naw!! iam being my sweet southern self. lol
@ Jared,
Well, one can accuse of the same thing buster!! Why not more threads on Hayden then? He is a hell of a lot more interesting I think. No!! You have more and tons more threads on Rachel but, I guess you get the paparazzi pictures soooo. You get paid to post about them. It fun anyway. Thanks Jared!!
@ Smilehexe. I’m so sick of this Spider I can just vomit and thank’s girl my sweet Euro friend! Okay?? Who actually goes by thier actual name?? Okay?? Spider what is your f*cking actual real name then?? Oh! I know. It is Dr. Nurse Ratched!!! Yeah!! She is one that flew over the cookoo’s nest!! ROTFLMAO!!!!
Smilehexe
I read too many magainze that fans believe to be real..Hayden speaking of leaving acting for Architecture..He verbally said that was false..he wasn’t leaving where did the idea come from maybe he made a comment about it..in passing reporters took it as fact and printed something twisted in it..We have no clue what the pap’s see before, during or after the shot of a celeb is taken..so we can’t assume to understand what the intent was for the picture..Too many of them create an illusion so we buy what they are selling to us on this celeb..Thus the reason I take Verbal before I trust “Oh there dating because this picutre shows it..” and 1 or 2 days of pictures then the other person is alone for the rest of the time without the other doesn’t to me constitue a romance..only friends..
Jarred
You might be right not to give Rachel move power in the press then she deserves she isn’t worth it..better take the discussion to a MIT hayden board better suited for him anyway..
@ irishdreams
I’m responding to what you said in post #104 about him not being with an actress because they want a certain amount of attention and praise. I could name a lot of young actresses who don’t get off on the attention and praise. They pretty much live their life out of the limelight and aren’t pictured doing stupid random crap throughout the day. One of those people is Scarlett Johansson, she lives in Los Angeles and you hardly ever see her walking around doing random crap. Of matter of fact, you hardly see her at all. Why, because she doesn’t want the attention. She doesn’t court it, Kirsten Dunst is also the same way. Then there’s Natalie Portman, Keira Knightly etc. Not everyone wants all the attention.
@ Lee,
Scarlett Johansson, Natalie Portman, Kristen Dunst and Keira Knightly don’t need to get public attention and don’t desire it b/c they are alreadly popular by their amazing acting talent. They don’t need to rely on the media for attention. They have arrived to class A celebrity status!! Rachel on the other hand has not and I don’t think she ever will so, she is desperate for media attention and she is using Hayden too for publicity! She is seen w/ Darth Vader OMFG!!! She is such a worm!!
RUN Hayden run!!! ROTFLMAO!!!
Lee,
I do agree with you..Scarlett, Natalie and Keira don’t want or need the limelight attention and they are beyond wonderful actress’s actually Natalie Portman does more PSA and she has her own charity cause for woman and children with her FINCA that she started and has funded it on her own but, now with other celebs helping..Natalie hates press and you would never see her ask a PR agent to get these kind of rediculous pictures of her..If you see her the paparazzi just find her. Rachel needs this attention she can’t sell herself anymore with out it. and last poll on Popsugar asked if they thought Jumper would be her big hit..it’s more of a NO then a yes on that ..I think people will become sick of her and all the crap publiciity that she is using..I agree with Raven..If she is seen with Darth Vader that gives her brownie points and reporters will stop and take notice of her but, the fact her acting is below substancial is what many question of how jumper will do..Hayden as much as I like the man he seems to have trouble getting respect anymore in his acting.even though he is a good actor .thus giving him a low rating at the box office..
Only one thing to say: She’s more than perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
