Maggie Gyllenhaal moved to Brooklyn to avoid a paparazzi frenzy, but her brother Jake Gyllenhaal opted to live in L.A. and is constantly hounded by photographers. Of course, that may also have to do with the fact that he’s dating Reese Witherspoon, but still, he has a hard time staying out of the watchful lens of the paps, and Maggie doesn’t like it one bit. Maggie tells Marie Claire that she gets upset for her brother that his life is constantly scrutinized:
“I get so angry, really upset. They chase him in their car and it’s just different for him. More than anything I feel sorry for him that he has to deal with that,” she says of life in L.A. “I think it’s really hard for anybody who has to figure out a way to manage it. Like in Los Angeles, I don’t always know where to avoid going — sometimes you just walk right into a paparazzi nest.”
