Jake Gyllenhaal greets Jennifer Aniston with a holy kiss on stage at The GLAAD Media Awards 2007 at the Kodak Theatre in Los Angeles on Saturday night.

Naturally, this staring picture is the funniest! Oh, Jake…

Jake presented the former Friends star with the Vanguard Award for her contributions to increased visibility and understanding of the LGBT community. Previous winners include Cher, Eric McCormack (Will and Grace), and Charlize Theron.

UPDATE: InsideSocal reports on some Jake highlights from the show:

“When the noise went on perhaps a little too long (he was, after all, there to present to his The Good Girl co-star Jennifer Aniston), the ever charming Jake said to the crowd: “Settle down. Settle down. Settle down cowboys…[then there was a chorus of female shrieks so he added]…and cowgirls apparently.”

Gyllenhaal, star of Brokeback Mountain then said: “People say actors are brave for taking on certain roles. I say no. What’s truly brave is picking out what to wear in front of this crowd!”"
