Happy Birthday, Robert Downey Jr.!

Robert Downey Jr. smokes a cigar before picking up some vitamins at Great Earth with his wife Susan on Friday (April 4) in Brentwood, Calif.

The comic-book superhero star later celebrated his 44th birthday at the luxurious Thompson Beverly Hills Hotel, according to E!’s Marc Malkin. Also in attendance: RDJ’s Iron Man costar Gwyneth Paltrow (and husband Chris Martin) and Jake Gyllenhaal (with girlfriend Reese Witherspoon).

Jake and RDJ costarred in the 2007 crime thriller Zodiac and went on a hiking date with their sig others late last year.

Poor Robert,
does he have some real friends?
It must be sad celebrating a birthday with people who only want to use him for publicity.
Anyway, happy birthday Robert!

His wife looks pregnant ??? She’s quite plain really. Nothing wrong with her at all but quite ordinary i guess. Nice to see he’s not with a supermodel, fake tanned bleach blonde. Great actor.

Happy belated birthday! Keep up the good work. Some say 2008 was your year, but I think 2009 will be. I can’t wait to see the soloist later this month. You are so very talented and can morph into any role that you apply yourself to. Very well rounded artist!

Go to heel! This men is a very danger criminel person. He would be arrest several times and the Drug Mafia help him to go out of prison and give lot of money for the corrupt Judges and Polices of USA.
Hollywood has very bad society. It seems like a nest of rats.

Dirty Film Industry!

“I love RDJ but where is my other passion Jake ?”
Jake did a bit of publicity with the midget beard, and he keeps a low profile with his boyfriend.

I have ditched the idea that Jake and Reese will marry. If they were going to marry it would have happened by now. His sister has a “partner” (and his kid) without being married and I imagine Jake will follow her lead. The marriage rumors are just to keep attention on them. Will they, won’t they? Maybe, maybe not. That sort of thing.
