There’s not a lot known about Jacob Pechenik other than what he’s allowed to be recorded about him. Some people simply don’t like to have their business put in the tabloids or even mentioned by those they don’t feel comfortable trusting such information with. It’s not so much that he’s what people would term a closet case but it is understandable that since he’s in show business that eventually people are going to find things out about him, even if he does all he can to make sure that they have to work for it. Some celebrities and those that work behind the scenes prefer to stay away from the spotlight and enjoy their lives without having a camera in their face all the time, while others seem to enjoy the shine and glitz and glam. Jacob however tends to enjoy a much quieter life.
Here’s a few things you might not have known about him.
10. He’s a very private person.
He prefers to keep his life out of the papers and it’s not much of a stretch to think why when so many other people in show business tend to be plastered across magazines and tabloids aplenty on a regular basis, whether the stories about them are true or not.
9. He’s a producer.
In fact he’s an executive producer which means he works behind the scenes and is rarely seen where the cameras are, though this might be by his choice for the most part. There are times when he can’t really avoid the spotlight even if it’s not really meant for him.
8. He’s married to Zooey Deschanel.
This is why he can’t get away from the spotlight all the time, because he has a wife that is still a popular celebrity. Occasionally he has to accompany her to one or more shows and be seen in public so it’s not too surprising that there are pictures of him around, especially in her company.
7. He’s not exactly active on social media.
He has an Instagram account but nothing else and it’s fair to say that he doesn’t really use it all that much. Again he’s a private person and doesn’t really interact on social media, like a few people in Hollywood that don’t want their business being known by absolutely everyone.
6. He used to work for Intercontinental Exchange, Inc.
It doesn’t seem odd to see him working in an office setting or elsewhere as a financial adviser or something related to finances, but it does seem as though he enjoys his role as a producer a little more since he’s still there.
5. He doesn’t mind PDA.
Public displays of affection are no big deal for him and his wife since they’ll gladly hold hands and do much more in public. It all depends on the person how acceptable PDA is and how far they take it sometimes. There are moments when it’s just a little too much when you’re in certain areas that are filled with people.
4. He’s produced several movies.
It does seem as though he loves his job as a producer since he’s become quite good at it and has worked with some of the more notable names in Hollywood. One good thing about being a producer is that he doesn’t have to be in front of the camera all the time and he gets to work behind the scenes.
3. He and his wife were married in a secret ceremony.
Some people would absolutely throw a fit if it was even mentioned that their partner wanted to have a ceremony that was anything less than the big banquet hall, the nice dress, the pomp and flair that some women want with their wedding and the gifts and the guests and the cake. Jacob and Zooey had a private ceremony that was just for them for the most part and was deemed as perfect for what they wanted. Sometimes you don’t need the big spectacle since all you really need are two people that love one another, and a marriage license of course.
2. He and Zooey named their kids after wildlife species.
Before anyone goes wondering at the sanity of these two for doing such a thing let’s not forget about some of the names that other celebs have managed to tag their kids with over the years. A lot of people have gone traditional and stuck with names that are pretty common, but Blue Ivy and Coco, just to name a couple, are names that have sprung up and become a part of the norm when talking about how celebrities name their children.
1. He keeps a lot of his life on the down low.
It’s usually a matter of personal choice if any celebrity wants to keep their life on the down low and in this case Jacob is simply a private person when it comes to his personal life.
You can’t help but respect that since he doesn’t want to make a spectacle of himself or his family.
