Since he travels so much for his career, it probably is nice for him to have someone that he trusts take care of his house while he is gone. Plus, he might just be helping a bud out by letting him live in some nice digs. Honestly, that makes the most sense to me. Maybe he, unlike so many other Hollywood based actors, doesn't feel the need to have a huge McMansion all to himself. Or maybe he just doesn't like living alone and absent a significant other a roommate fits the bill.

Who knows maybe his friend has medical issues and can't live alone, maybe he has financial issues and doesn't want to take money from Jeremy but doesn't mind house sitting in his absence or maybe he & Jetemy are so close they consider each other brothers.

Who knows maybe his friend has medical issues and can't live alone, maybe he has financial issues and doesn't want to take money from Jeremy but doesn't mind house sitting in his absence or maybe he & Jetemy are so close they consider each other brothers. Or maybe he is also gay and doesn't want his private life affecting his career? It's not like he has to live with rumours that he beat an ex spouse like Bradley Cooper. Speculation about sexuality should not be offensive to him unless he thinks being considered gay is offensive. From a career standpoint I can see how that's annoying because we still live in a society that cannot get beyond gay actors playing straight characters so those type of rumours would be damaging to him for the type of roles he's going after. On a personal level, I get that it must be annoying if people have this idea of you that's very far from how you feel about yourself. However, unless he lives under a rock he must know that all celebrities are talked about, so I don't quite get his anger that his life must be private and people shouldn't talk about it. You do your best to keep that way, but if people will talk about it, they will and him getting angry about it is only fueling the flames. Look, I don't care either way about his sexuality. In fact he is never much in my radar so I didn't even know that he lived with another guy or that he doesn't have a steady girlfriend. He talked in the past about how dissapointed he was when he hit it big and his gf of several years all of a sudden wanted to be an actress, presumably because she saw a window of opportunity with all his newfound fame. So I assumed he's dating around and doesn't want to bring to premieres a woman that he's not dating seriously. Makes sense. With all that said, I doubt we'd be so understanding of a male superstar living with another guy if that actor's name was Tom Cruise. If we're speculating about Tom being madly in love with David Miscavige and they don't even live together, I am not sure why we can't speculate about Jeremy if he's living with another guy. He didn't go on vacation with him. He lives with him and I don't think Jeremy needs to share the rent, which is why the majority of people who aren't romantically involved live together. Comparing celebrities' lifestyle choices to our own is pointless because they are not concerned with financial matters like we are. Maybe he is gay, maybe he's in denial, maybe he isn't and the guy living with him is his best buddy whom he's giving a roof to live on until he can get back on his feet, maybe he just needs to have someone to talk to who also happens to be a guy. Who knows? I don't find speculation about his life offensive anymore than I do about all the other celebrities we talk about on this board, including assumptions about his living arraingements. I missed this about Jakey but if he handled it that way, good for him. Completely unrelated, but the more I read about Jake the more I love him. I also saw End of Watch recently and I loved that movie so much so that's also affecting my opinion.

I've seen a few interviews of him and when he's not being angry he's often blunt, curt, and kind of rude. He can also be charming sometimes and seems to have a quirky sense of humor (on the Kelly Ripa show he said to her "are you on crack?!" Who says that anymore? Jeremy Renner, that's who). I suppose it depends on what kind of mood he's in. So I don't think his answer to the question to the gay rumor indicates he's being overly defensive or anything. It's just him being him. Regarding this roommate, I thought the guy he lived with was the same guy he's been in business with flipping houses since before he became famous. On Letterman he said that he and this business partner often stay in the houses they buy while they're fixing them up.

This is probably a really unpopular opinion, but I think Jeremy Renner is obnoxious, arrogant, and icky. I actually don't think he's gay--if anything, he's probably a typical heterosexual Hollywood womanizer. In each interview I've seen him in, he comes off as arrogant and obnoxious. I don't think he's cute, either.
I've heard there's no lost love for him back in his hometown...nothing scandalous...they just think he's an arrogant jerk.

He's does come across as having a chip on his shoulder. Maybe it comes from slogging away in the industry so many years trying to break through. I think he's obviously not known for being as easy going or approachable as Jake or Hugh which may be why they tend to not be as fazed by the gay rumours whereas it seems to get Jeremy's back up. But then again I suppose others in his situation would be similarly pissed off.
Off topic but plush I agree - loved End of Watch. I was hoping for some awards love for Jake & Michael but it wasn't too be.

Lainey says there are rumors baby girl Renner was born. Her name may be Ava.

Ava is a wee bit overused but hey it's nice and normal name. Berlin is odd but at least they put crazy in the middle.
