Deadline Hollywood reports:

Management 360′s Evelyn O’Neill tells me it’s a “very amicable parting” and she hopes he comes back since she and Jake Gyllenhaal go back such a long time — 8 years. “Sometimes people like change in their life. I think he’s amazing, I’m very proud of the work he did together, he was nominated for an Oscar, I want him back, and the door is always open. It is what it is.” I understand Gyllenhaal is not leaving for another manager and he’s not leaving his talent agency CAA.

It’s been more than a year since the first Edible Schoolyard meal at the fashion designer Lela Rose’s TriBeCa apartment. And, since we weren’t able to make that one, it’s been more than a year that we’ve been looking forward to seeing Ms. Rose’s dining-room table. This isn’t some ordinary dinner table. It rather famously, at least in Edible Schoolyard circles, comes up from the floor in parts and drops from the ceiling.

In homage, John Lyons, the former president of Focus Features who serves on the board of Alice Waters’s Chez Panisse Foundation (which oversees Edible Schoolyard) said he was toying with the idea of hiring a set designer to redo his apartment. That way, he joked, “all of the furniture can fly in from the ceiling.”

Freshly bald Matt Damon loves his new look. What he doesn’t love is having his shaved head compared to Jake Gyllenhaal’s.

“Wow, I try not to envy, but I have to say Jake’s got a damn good-looking head,” Damon, 40, told PEOPLE at Wednesday’s New York premiere of his new movie about a killer virus, Contagion. “He sure does have a beautiful round head.”

“Normally you say, ‘That’s a beautiful head of hair, but that’s a beautiful head he’s got,’ ” Damon says laughing. “Gyllenhaal definitely gets the blue ribbon for the best bald head over me.”
