"Me and my best friend have known each other since we were six and I took him to a lot of award ceremonies when Brokeback Mountain was doing the awards circuit. So once we were in London and he was helping me knot my tie and my publicist and a reported walked in. And they were like 'We are so sorry, we did not mean to interrupt you guys' and we are like 'No'," said the actor during an appearance on the US TV show Jimmy Kimmel Live.
Gyllenhaal said that he is very affectionate towards his friend, who is a stylist and they call each other baby, often confusing bystanders."When I won the BAFTA, he was sitting right next to me and he said 'Yeah baby' and everyone was so taken aback," said the actor.
