This's my nickname for him, my Man Crush Monday: Jacob Benjamin Gyllenhaal, or just Jake Gyllenhaal - the king of #Cannes2017

Jay Jay attended to the Film Festival once his movie was competing for the Palme d'Or - 'Okja' by a South Korean director Bong Jong-ho - and his perfect red carpet gromming got our attention and affection.

Playing it cool at the movie photocall

Blue, to match with my eyes, please.

Vogue Paris agrees "The 70th edition of the Cannes Film Festival provided the latest opportunity for a grooming masterclass from the actor as he slicked his mid-length hair back dandy-style, and sported a healthy beard, coiffed casually enough to break the all-too-strict codes of an overly perfect look. Paired with a made-to-measure Tom Ford suit, it was simple American class."
Handsome and a gentleman.. how cute is he? Helping costar Lily Collins on the red carpet ❤️️

Lucky Emma Thompson!

Ok, you might be thinking.. every man looks great in a suit... so, here > try a t-shirt and some jeans ;)

I've been watching Jake from a long time.. I don't know, I think since 'The Bubble Boy' (2001). But I need to confess that I only noticed him a while ago - after watching 'Southpaw' (2015), by Antoine Fuqua - you know I can't resist a boxing movie right? haha..
If you like Rocky Balboa as much as I do, you're gonna like this one too. I recommend!

In the words of Vogue again "the astonishing results of his physical transformation for his role"

See? He's a Man Crush AND a Monday Motivation!
Wishing all an inspired week!!
