Milo Quotes

You met girlfrend Alexis Bledel on the set. Was it weird working with your girlfriend?
"Not at all. She's great to work with. We had a lot of fun." ~ J-14 Magazine

What do you think makes a good boyfriend?
"I think that in any relationship, you have to be who you are, but at the same time understand that who you are is very differnet from the person who you're with. You have to sway and bend with the other person and not break yourself, you own values, morals, ideas, standards, all of that. A lot of it is communication. I think the biggest success is when you can actually talk an listen to people." ~ J-14 Magazine

Milo on Alexis acting
“She’s genuine, you know, when you see her smiling on screen its very natural.”

What else did Milo say? Is he still with Alexis Bledel?
Yes. She wasn't at the WB party but I have it on good authority they're still together, and he did reference her during our convo. Milo's midseason WB show, The Bedford Diaries, follows a group of students going to college in NYC as they "explore their identity and relationships." Still pining over my favorite fickle pickle, I (of course) implored, "Is it like Felicity?" Milo put his hand over his mouth, looked the other way and whispered, "Yes." Then he added, "Well, I think we're going a little more highbrow than Felicity." Excuse moi!? "Well, no, I shouldn't have said that," he continued. "I honestly never watched Felicity. My girlfriend loves that show, but I've never really seen it."

Milo on watching Gilmore Girls
“Yes, I do! I enjoy the show. I like to see how it will turn out. I like watching my peers and how the job works out.”

Milo Ventimiglia makes mix CDs for his gf, Alexis Bledel.
"Sometimes, it's how you feel when you're making a CD, and sometimes, it's just, 'Hey, this is a rock band you should check out.'"


Alexis Quotes

On being asked whether she misses Milo on the Set of GG
"Ofcourse." ~ People Online

On being asked whether there are wedding bells in her and Milo's future.
"I think everybody who has been dating for more than a couple of years probably talks about it at some point. It's a fun thing for us to talk about, but that's it – it's down the road." ~ People Online

Alexis on The Bedford Diaries
Former Gilmore Girls actor Milo Ventimiglia (Jess Mariano) is her longtime steady, and though she doesn't talk about their relationship, her blue eyes immediately brighten when I mention that his new show about college life in NYC, The Bedford Diaries, is excellent ("It's good, right? I think it's going to be like Sex and the City for college kids"). ~ Elle Magazine

Alexis on acting with Milo
"It's always fun working with him," says Alexis, blushing slightly. "We're really lucky that we complement each other well, and he's introduced me to so many things - too many to count. But I don't want to elaborate too much because I'm very protective of our relationship... it's very important to me." She will, however, dish out about their off-screen relationship helps out their on-screen chemistry. "We trust each other, so we don't have to worry about any circumstance being uncomfortable," she says.

Alexis on their relationship
"We don't have to worry about keeping things fresh because we work so much," says Alexis, who recently completed an independent film titled I'm Reed Fish and is fitting in charity work in her already hectic schedule. "So when we do see each other, it's so exciting. I want to spend all of my time with him!"

TVG: I know you don't like to discuss your personal life.
Bledel: It's just, the articles I read when I was younger, they said the only way [a Hollywood romance] works is if you don't talk about it, and I agree with that. And also, it's your stuff, and if you share things that are too personal with a magazine or with your public, it's sort of like it's not really yours anymore, it's shared information and it's not special to you anymore. I don't like that. I think people with personalities who like to talk about what's going on in their lives, they'll talk without really knowing how it's going to come back and bite them, and generally, it does. And luckily, I have the kind of personality where I am extremely private. I don't really like to tell everyone my business. I'd much rather people wonder or not know.

TVG: Is Milo on the same page with that approach?
Bledel: We're both fairly private about our personal lives. I don't really talk about it, because relationships are so personal, but they're also so fragile. They're so ever-changing — people are constantly evolving within their relationships. You may always be together, but the way you feel on a day-to-day basis, it either stays the same or it changes, and I don't usually talk about it.

The model-turned actress can also identify with Rory's romantic life - they're both experiencing their first serious adult relationships. While Rory is getting cozy with Logan (Matt Czuchry), a rich reformed playboy, Alexis is enjoying a three year relationship with her on-screen ex, Milo Ventimiglia, 28, who's returning to Gilmore Girls in November as brooding bad boy Jess. ~ Inside Tv Magazine

A self-proclaimed homebody, Alexis enjoys a low-key lifestyle in L.A., spending time hanging out and cooking dinner with Milo, who's slated to star in the upcoming WB drama Bedford Diaries.

From janehere: Are Rory and Jess still together in real life?
Yes, indeedy! Party Girl just spotted them at a club called Nacional for a Mean Magazine party celebrating Sin City. Says PG: "He was very attentive, sitting behind her on a chair rubbing her shoulders and lightly playing with her hair." My heart just grew three sizes.

Alexis & Milo Shake Things Up in Aspen!
“We’re not one of those couples who like to attract attention,” Alexis Bledel, 23, tells US of her romance with onetime Gilmore Girls costar Milo Ventimiglia, 27. Yet her beau still got in a few public kisses at the Food & Wine Magazine Classic in Aspen, Colorado, where Bledel shook up Cointreau martinis on June 11. Her recipe for a perfect date? “I think with our jobs and all the traveling,” says the L.A. girl, “it’s really just nice to be home.”

She wants her Dolly
Over dinner last week, the petite actress talked about her latest Dolly quest: She wanted to rush out to a bookstore and buy Parton's autobiography on cassette.
When she found out I live in Parton's hometown, the WB starlet gushed over her love for the country music icon. Her boyfriend wasn't as enthusiastic, but he agreed that visiting Dollywood would be a fun trip.

Thanks for the new thread.

PGGF

oops. It wasn't supposed to appear twice. Sorry.

kindness is free

awesome we finally have a new thread

Reflecting_Light

Thanks for the new thread!

All of the Milo/Hayden talk these days makes me sad (no offense to any of their fans), it makes me wish for Alexis/Milo.

PGGF

I know what you mean. I'm all for Milo (and Alexis) being happy, but every time I hear something Milo/Hayden related it's like a kick to the stomach. It's not fair that we didn't get some of the moments like they're getting. I love that Milo and Alexis had their privacy, but I still would have liked more pictures and mentions of one another during interviews. Nothing too invasive though. Just little tidbits here and there would have been nice.

anettbianka

I agree and I totally understand and respect how private they were. It was a wise idea! But still it would have been nice if they went out on more events together. I still appreciate all the pics we got... they were always so cute and you could just see how much in love they were by the way they looked at each other... they didn't have to be so affectionate it was still obvious.

ramgirl

I agree but it was cool that they were so private because it showed how much they cared and valued their realtionship that they didn't want anything to mess it up, I don't know it was werid cause I was never a fan of a real life couple but for someone reason i really wanted them to work out. I remember being a jr. in high school when I found out they were dating in real life and I thought it was cool I was a r/j fan and really liked them both. It was when the pics of them at the Halloween party came out that I really started to like them together I remembering looking at the pics and realizing that she was the most coverd up girl there long dress, long sleaves, and a turtle neck I think, while all the girls were half dressed you know the whole naughty maids, etc. but yet she had the hottest guy at the party on her arm. I mean i'm a fan of hers because from what I heard shes a really shy person and that's me the quite shy girl who never broke dress code rules and not really into being the center of attention so i can really relate to her. So it gave me hope that a guy like him who could get the playboy bunny or bikin supermodel went for the shy girl who coverd up and the girl who wasn't the party type or the type that wanted to be the center of attention.

So that's why I kinda sad when i heard that they broke up; this post probably made no sense if you read but it's late.

I love that they valued their relationship enough to keep it all private. I love the pics we did get they always looked so happy to be with each other.

madelen

It absolutely makes sense I completely understand what you mean.

I really admired the fact that they were very private about their relationship, but like many of you said, I wouldn't have minded to see more pics of them together

Milo and Alexis are both still very private people, and that's something that I respect about both of them.

I feel the same Mad. Alexis and Milo are private people who love to do their job. I respect that they keep their personal life seperate.

turambar

I think she's absolutely gorgeous and it's odd, while I like Hayden just fine and adore Milo and actually am a Peter/Claire shipper, I am completely uninterested in the Milo/Hayden relationship.

It didn't come as a shock to me because I got a sense there was something there even when she was still with her ex-boyfriend but I'm just not all squee-worthy over it like some of their fans.

I don't know, to me Milo and Alexis just looked amazing together and while we never got much with how private they were; what we did get was always so beautiful like the pictures in the opening post.

Seriously Alexis is just gorgeous to me and even more so when you hear how sweet and down to earth she is. I have to say, theirs was a break up I took pretty hard...even more so than Adam Brody and Rachel Bilson and I really liked them.

Alexis is a beautiful perosn on the inside and out. The pics we did get of them together were stunning they always looked so at ease and comfortable with one another. That made the pics even better

madelen

Hi turambar Welcome to the Alexis board, it's great to have you here with us

I completely agree with you. Alexis is so pretty, and what makes her even more likable is how sweet and down to earth she is And Milo's the same way.

I love how down to earth and sweet they are thats what made them a great couple they were alike
