KEY POINTS

  • Jake Gyllenhaal doesn't read gossip and pays no attention to Taylor Swift's "All Too Well" rerelease
  • The "Nightcrawler" actor is focused on himself and ignores the noise, a source said
  • Gyllenhaal was in a good mood when he stepped out a day after Swift's short film was released

Jake Gyllenhaal is not interested and not bothered by Taylor Swift's rerelease of "All Too Well."

The "Nightcrawler" star was trending over the weekend after Swift dropped the 10-minute short film of her song "All Too Well" Friday from her rerecorded "Red" Album. Swifties were convinced that the song was about her brief romance with Gyllenhaal, 40, because there were many easter eggs that seemed to hint about the singer and the actor when they were still together.

An unnamed source spoke with E! News and shared Gyllenhaal's reaction to it. Apparently, the "Guilty" star wasn't affected at all.

"Jake has no interest in any of it," the insider told the outlet. "He doesn't read gossip or pay any attention to that."

"He's living his life and focused on himself. He's ignoring all of the noise," the insider added.

"You said if we had been closer in age maybe it would have been fine / And that made me want to die," Swift sings in the rerecorded version of "All Too Well."

Many fans speculated that the lyrics implied her split from Gyllenhaal was due to their age gap because he is nine years her senior.

"And I was never good at telling jokes, but the punch line goes / I'll get older, but your lovers stay my age," she sings in another part of the song.

Several netizens believe it's a dig at Gyllenhaal, who is dating 25-year-old model Jeanne Cadieu.

The song also mentioned Swift's scarf, which she said she left at his sister's house. Gyllenhaal was photographed using a scarf similar to Swift's in his previous outing. Dionne Warwick, 80, urged the actor to return the item and even offered to pay for the postage cost.

Meanwhile, a day after Swift released the new version of "All Too Well," Gyllenhaal stepped out and attended the Hamilton Behind the Camera Awards. He was there to support his sister, Maggie Gyllenhaal, 43, who won the breakthrough director award for her directorial debut, "The Lost Daughter."

He also presented an award to Mandell Winter and David Esparza, the sound editors of his Netflix thriller movie "The Guilty."

The "Velvet Buzzsaw" actor arrived solo after the red carpet wrapped. He was escorted inside. He was later seen sharing a table with his co-stars Riley Keough, Peter Sarsgaard and Maggie, who is married to Sarsgaard.

"Jake was in a good mood," an insider told Us Weekly about his demeanor at the event. "He was proud to be there to present the award for sound editing to Mandell Winter."
