Jared, 11, who plays January’s son Bobby on ‘Mad Men,’ admits she’s not as ‘nice’ as his other co-stars. He agrees with Zach Galifianakas!
We didn’t know mom-to-be January Jones to be so mean, but apparently, she is! Jared Gilmore, 11, who is leaving Mad Men after playing January’s character, Betty Francis’ son Bobby for the past few years, says his onscreen mom is ‘unapproachable.’ Do you believe him?
“Be careful around January,” Jared tells TV Guide. “She’s not as approachable as the others. She’s really serious about what she does. Everyone else is so nice.” OUCH!
January, 33, who is expecting her first baby — but has yet to reveal the father — hasn’t gotten much praise from other actors lately either. The Hangover star Zach Galifianakis claims she was so rude to him the first time they met, she ordered him to leave their table!
After January referred to Zach as “one of the funniest men in town” during an interview in May, the actor retaliated, explaining, “That’s really funny because, if I remember correctly, she and I were very rude to each other. It was crazy. I was at a party, I’d never met her, and she was like, ‘Come sit down.’ So I sit at her table and talk for ten minutes, and she goes, ‘I think it’s time for you to leave now.’”
“So I say, ‘January, you are an actress in a show and everybody’s going to forget about you in a few years, so f***ing be nice,’ and I got up and left,” Zach adds. Wow, those are some harsh words — guess she isn’t so nice, eh?
Jared is leaving Mad Men for a full-time gig on the new ABC show Once Upon A Time, featuring Ginnifer Goodwin and Jennifer Morrison.
Do YOU think January is really a mean person?

Isn’t Bobby Flay the father? If the baby is red headed, then BINGO, Flay is the father. Remember about the time she conceived there was that weird situation when she had a car accident and called Bobby Flay to her rescue in the wee morning hours. Weird.
