(No offense intended to anyone who reads Sparks - I just always think of him when I hear about gooey romance)
>>296 Classy save there. Also, "they spend every second together". Since December, even if we believe every nw3 rumour going, they have spent what? 2 weeks together in total?
I mean I have had pairs of tights I have had a more longstanding relationship with...
>>302 How reliable even are these "sources" anyway? Like will Star publish quotes that are completely made up or do they actually have to come from somewhere? Could I call them up right now claiming to be a source and get information published?
>>299 Possibly someone who was already screwing the person who just got out of a 3 year relationship? Just a thought.
>>305 Yeah. No matter what they do this still looks bad. But I guess people will still believe what they read? Maybe people who haven't been following either of their careers too closely.
>>304 Who knows but I guess the point is the story is out there now and even if the sources are fake everyone is all over the one interesting angle - the possible overlap. Thy have lost control of the story. I understand this is the opposite of what PR wants to achieve.
>>306 I am not so sure. I think if I read sparks flew on set and he called the day after her engagement ended I'd think "yeah right". It's a story as old as the film industry.
Time for TH to start telling us all about Hamlet and Gertrude screwing Polonius before Old Hamlet was cold.
There's only one version of events where this silence makes sense, where it makes sense to not respond and wait for an official occasion, like a festival, to address this. But it's the version that at the moment sounds even less likely than the rest, to become more credible, to be considered true, it needs time to pass without any sighting of them together in any form.
>>308 exactly, especially to the general public, who is the majority.
>>310 and really time needed to pass between January and now without any mention of anything to make their version credible. Which it didn't cos of the U.S. weekly "hooking up" story.
>>312 Which again just adds to the long, long list of reasons none of this makes any sense.
>>312 oh that, I don't think that was intentional since he was away filming haha. The version I'm thinking about is that they are just friends, this is the less likely right now. If they are a couple, passing of time now makes it worse, because it allows rags like star to make up stories that only do damage.
>>314 Either they are just friends, or they need to fire their PR. Maybe fire the PR regardless, lol.
"a close pal of the Avengers star 34"
I haven't noticed the age this morning, I thought they were talking of a source near EO, instead the "close pal" is TH's
Close pals: his sisters, Cumberbatch, Olly,Luke...........Hemsworth? lol
What a ridiculous article.
Celebitchy is stalking us!! We have better quality comment though...
http://www.celebitchy.com/440054/tom_hiddlestons_not_a_homewrecker_he_waited_until_elizabeth_olsen_was_single/
Article: TH is NOT a homewrecker.
Read: TH is TOTALLY a homewreaker.
Oh, lordy. I came for the gossip, but I'm going to stay for the PR train wreck.
I genuinely don't know what is going on - can't even guess. And I don't know how it's going to end. But the PR mis-steps along the way are going to FEED me!
Seatbelt fastened! Let's go.
>>319 Yeah, the PR was just kind of pathetic before, but at least now it's so awful it's funny.
Hot Mess of an article.
Full House sister - hahahah!
Good buddy Boyd? Are TH and BH BFFs?
And they have THE video embedded.
But it is on a site about classical music, so way to stay classy TH.
"An additional informant tells the magazine, Olsen was seen hanging out with Hiddleston in England last week both strolling the streets of Oxford arm-in-arm and going to see Bradley Cooper play The Elephant Man in London together:"
What gets me is how the Oxford thing is being spread around like Chinese whispers after the Daily Fail got the story muddled up.
Ah well.. ask for publicity and you shall get it.
>>321 Just when I thought the story couldn't possibly get any more convoluted! Goodness me.
Like, you know as soon as she broke off the engagement she called TH and said "Hey we can f**k now" No more just stolen kisses and making out!" goodness.
Every time I see the bit with EO trying to start a relationship with the gate by watching it through her scarf, and then asking where her guardian, I mean TH, is, I realise how farcical this pap hoopla was. Splash video is even better for that.
I think we should be glad nobody linked Oxford with his father or we will have articles about a possible wedding.
>>321 Ahahahaha. As if it was not messy enough, they managed to incorporate Chris Evans as the FOURTH party of this lurve story, lol.
Lol and nobody even thinks that they even haven't been in Oxford, and the photo was taken EnGland's lane
>>325 lol
it's a train wreck, I feel sorry for Luke.
Bit of a long post but I've just read at CB someone pointing out that you can tell that this was a set-up because there was no follow up by paps.
Anything is possible of course, but I tend to disagree.
When EO was in London in April to promote AoU, she was papped at the airport, at her hotel, at a famous restaurant. But when she went to London after Paris fashion week in July, paps didn't even bother with her. In the week before the pap-hoopla we know she was out having dinner with other famous actors and no paps.
Then we have TH, that unless he goes to events where paps are around anyway, he's never followed around by paps in London.
So, while I think that the restaurant was EO's choice, since she has a habit of having dinner in famous spots, I also think that they felt they would pass by unnoticed, even with the DM article. After all, they reached the theatre and no paps, they left the theatre and no paps, they walked to the restaurant and no paps, they arrived at the restaurant and no paps. It's unclear whether paps were waiting for them outside the restaurant or they showed up once they left, but as a set-up seems badly managed.
As for the lack of follow up by paps, they might have done it the day after, but if TH was holed-up in his house and EO was holed-up in her hotel, that a waste of time and money for paps.
Actually, do we know that EO is still in London?
I don't think she is in London.
In fact, I'm sure it was a friends meeting each other before she left. She was in London when Tom was there too, before he went to SDCC and they hadn't met each other other wise we would've known. Maybe they just met in cafe to chat and decided to go to theatre, and then to have a dinner. I'm pretty sure she was the one who chose that restaurant and I'm also sure that the paps were arranged by her or her team. As well as all other articles. That's why Tom was that angry.
In general I believe nit heir friendship but she isn't his type at all. He likes low key life and live like ordinary human being, when she is dying for publicity.
>>328 Theatre going is a pap-free activity in London because too many theatres for them to stake out and even if people tweet you're there, loads of exits and a big crowd leaving together, so hard to get your target.
Pap-friendly restaurants don't have crowds of paps waiting to take your pic when you go in - they get them when you come out (target usually drunk and it's dark so a more dramatic picture). It's always x leaving the Chiltern Firehouse. Also of course you have to hang around on spec to catch someone going in; you may get a tip-off while they are there so you can more easily catch them going out.
Apparently there were tweets that they were there - I haven't seen anyone link to them but if there were, paps descend therefore probably not a set-up. But it can hardly have been a surprise.
Maybe our friendly neighbourhood stalker nw3anon will tell us if EO is still in town, now she is showing signs of life again.
>>330 I have only seen tweets about them being at the theatre, not the restaurant, but like you say someone at the restaurant might have tipped the paps off.
>>331 I doubt it, she is already claiming she knows nothing of what is going on, and that there are no paps in the area.
>333 Simultaneously with saying that she has seen them around together!
there's also the fact that UK media is hardly covering this story, but it's being covered by US media. I wonder if Luke had a call with the UK ones telling them something.
>>334 but that is like saying EO wears flip-flops :)
really, it's hard to see how this might be TH's PR, none of this helps his image or the promotion of ISTL.
The story of the damsel in distress, confused by 2 guys fighting for her love, allows EO to get away with her image clean, but the other guy always takes the blame.
Imagine TH at a talk show while promoting ISTL, the host asks "so you said ISTL is mainly a story about a bad marriage, you know something about homewrecking don't you?" It's a debacle for him.
>>336 That's my point exactly! She says I know naaahthing simultaneously with dropping baity info which is (a) unverifiable or (b) can be ascertained from photos (he looks so tanned and amazing!) or (c) unverifiable but probable. Which is exactly what she has always done.
Star made up the story about EO and Renner though. I highly doubt this story was fed by one of their PR.
I don't think this is Luke because although he is good at getting TH on the red carpet or working with UNICEF, he is shit at reacting to stories he didn't create (JA) and advises TH badly about reacting to stories. Seemingly nobody has told TH to say in interviews "sorry I'd prefer not to discuss that", leading to the boring but familiar "X made clear early in our interview that his love life was off limits in our conversation." I also don't think UK publicists generally deal proactively with love life complications - the impression I get is that the U.S. publicists leak like sieves to People etc to try and get their side out there before the papers get it.
The only one who benefits from that story is Olsen. It's her set up and her PR, Tom has nothing to do with it. Of course he was angry with her, especially when she followed him in his cab.
>>340 yes when I talk of nw3anon I am always being sarcastic. I posted on the last thread how she falsely said TH windows were not visible from the road. They are, so info about him being in residence may be no more than seeing his lights on, not seeing him or having the inside line as she insinuates.
I need a name other than Anon I think!
>>343 How one can but be sarcastic about that blog? :)
>>341 Luke only did it once, or maybe it was Public Eye since they were both with PE at the time. When TH confirmed in a DM article that he broke up with SF, the day after SF went public with her current bf Oliver Chris at the All New People after party.
I wrote "he broke off" but it should have been "they". Come to think of it, I read, so I don't know if it's true, TH's fans gave SF a lot of flak for dumping TH over a new bf and possibly cheated on him. And they weren't even engaged.
>>339 you mean the Star's article about TH&EO? I agree, it's such a silly piece I doubt in that case any PR was involved. Not sure about the rest of the US outlets.
According to this CB's poster, EO's fiancé was in Shreveport to spend Thanksgiving with her; the spa TH and EO went was shut down for giving sex services, haha
http://www.celebitchy.com/440054/tom_hiddlestons_not_a_homewrecker_he_waited_until_elizabeth_olsen_was_single/#comment-14662144
Lol. I did think that the pictures didn't make it look the most refined of establishments.
>>328 I think so much of what you wrote here could be used to support an argument that it was staged.
Yeah, she was papped during the AoU press tour, but she was associated with all of those stars and that big promotion push/tour. She was papped places with other really big names.
Then nothing when she comes into London alone. And TH - also nothing usually, as you said.
Then they hit up a well-known pap hangout - and it's a feeding frenzy?
That seems like too much of a 180 for there not to have been some pre-arranged situation.
I guess it's funny how people can look at the same situation and come up with two completely different takes.
>>324 Hahaha - trying to start a romance with the gate. Now, that's a story her people should leak to US Weekly.
Renner, Hiddleston, Evans, Hiddleston, Gate, Scarf - this girl is going through the gears!
>>328/329
I think she's still there, because I genuinely think they are in a relationship, or trying to give one a go with the free time that they usually don't have.
But do I think they are spending every second together like the Star article says? No, because, as everyone knows, that's the surest way to kill a budding relationship, or an established one. You don't want to be under each other's feet
I feel like we might get one or two more sighting before festivals and ISTL promo. Set-ups or not, I'm not sure, but a few more.
"so you said ISTL is mainly a story about a bad marriage, you know something about homewrecking don't you?"
Please, baby Jesus, let someone ask this question!! Amen.
>>341 "the impression I get is that the U.S. publicists leak like sieves to People etc to try and get their side out there before the papers get it."
I agree. I think this is the MO for a lot of publicists - on either side of the Atlantic. And the fact that US Weekly and Just Jared seemed to get the exclusives - they had the shots and articles up only a matter of minutes after the TH, EO, Gate/Scarf (Credit to anonymous1) love triangle played out - makes me think that her PR might be running it.
However - and this is the reason I think there's a real relationship - he seems to be going along with it. Anything for true love...or a piece of sweet, sweet rebound tail.
>>351 I'm aware it could be read both ways, that's why we do all this guesswork. I was using those as possible reasons for the lack of follow-up by the paps. Of course it might be her, his, their PR told the media to back off because they will have something more juicy in the following weeks, but that smells too much of conspiracy theory for me.
>>353 >>355 As you say things can be read both ways, if they are together and there will be more sightings before festivals then yes TH is going along with her PR. If instead we get no sightings before TIFF/Telluride then we might be in for a surprise. We should run a betting pool! :)
Development, now the spa that closed was another haha
>>356 I totally agree. It's all so subjective.
I think we should take bets on whether this relationship will outlast this post page, I mean it's a long way to 1000!!
And it's a rebound for both, technically. I know people don't like to think that JA was TH's 'girlfriend,' but there was some sort of relationship there.
Watch me eat my words in 3 years when they're married with 1.5 kids!!
A gem from the celeitchy comments thread in TH context of a discussion about how famous TH actually is in the grander scheme of things: "I don’t know why the press would care for the king of the ferrets and his big sized version of Ashley Olsen having sex." So evil but I really did rofl!
I'll just leave this here...
http://royalgraffiti.com/did-tom-hiddleston-break/
Truly this is the gift that keeps on giving.
And truly I am beginning to think that the Ferret King has made himself look like a right prat.
Wow. If he was hoping for an image boost from this... I don't think he's going to get one.
Giving the lie to the theory that all publicity is good publicity.
All hail the Ferret King, Duke of PR, Baron of the Pap Walk, Lord of Broken Engagements. Hurrah! Hurrah!
Goodness.
But not surprising, only at CB they will trouble checking when glamour was put into publishing and all that stuff. The general public and media will run with this.
If this is actually a thing. And if it is, wouldn't have been better to stroll out of the restaurant hand in hand or arm in arm instead of giving that panic attack show?
But I do wonder, is this man really that stupid? I find hard ot believe this.
>>364 lol it was probaly better to be called a circus bear uh.
to conclude the riveting saga of the spa, because one can't even say that a spa was closed for offering sex services without giving proof, the original weibo page that posted the photos was the spa's weibo page. That user doesn't exist anymore on Weibo. The website for the spa - that you can find mentioned in this tweet - twitter. com/isawthelightru/status/542695286720954368 - is down.
>>368 That's the same woman. Face shape and eyebrows match.
>>365 Hahahahaaha!
And you omitted Lord High Keeper of the Morals of the Alley Cat....
>>371 We should also add Patron Saint of Illegal Sex Spas.
I thought of something about TH having Faisal to pick him on his Jaguar. It was past midnight when they took the cab, and I doubt Faisal lives in the NW3 nor that he is on alert 24/7, so the fact that TH didn't have to wait for his car, might mean that Faisal already knew that he would have to pick him up later that night. Yes, it's irrelevant in the big scheme of things, it was just a random idea.
Posting the direct link to the Jag photo because it's easier than scrolling down torrilla's site
http://ww3.sinaimg.cn/large/6e14d388gw1euef0mi01aj21kw27fn5g.jpg
Then can we call Olsen her Ladyship of gates and scarves?
>>372 Now I understand how it all came about. "Shit, the sex spa has closed down. Where will I get my happy endings now?" [looks around, eyes light on EO]
A couple more unrelated gems from the latest celebitchhy thread:
1) poster identifies with the difficulty of breaking off engagement because she had an incestuous affair with her uncle !!!!!!!!
2) EO in tv interview apparently said she doesn't have time for "free reading" as if reading for pleasure was homework and a terrible chore.
Really, re no (2) does anyone see this going the distance with a man who when asked if he collects anything, said books? http://youtu.be/fWCDAO8zG3s
>>374 That's the Lady Purse-Face to you, thank you very much.
>>375 You may be closer to the truth than you think!!
>>379 hahaha! I wonder if they are at his place even as we speak making little ferret babies. Or is he googling himself and screaming "f*cking hell those bitches are calling me the King of the Ferrets and the Lord of Cheating"...???
>>380 Tommy's a big boy, he will own his new titles because he's earned them.
PS - He was spotted this morning in the company of a tall brunette - always trying to throw us off of the scent, Hiddles, you little bugger.
is the source NW3 anon?
No, twitter. But that's always six and 1/2 dozen of another, isn't it.
Wow I simply don't know what to say.
You became so venomous that I feel I will vomit soon.
First of all be kind to post a link to the tweet, otherwise you rent better then Toby who's branch this thread will be very soon a I can see.
Second of all, does it surprise you that Tom has female friends? Finds as any other human being would have with whom he has a right to go and have a walk and etc. Including Olsen. Or you live in a ancient society where men aren't allowed to have female friends?
Tom doesn't deserve fans like this.
And I've choked whole Hiddleston tag on Twitter and there is nothing.
I mean checked (not chocked)
Found it, the girl who saw him is @TheCMArthur, and she took a pic.
twitter . com/thecmarthur/status/627765169809174529
Pretty sure he's wearing the exact same outfit as when he got snapped at the café last week, lol.
>>385 Lex, once again, I ask you to not insult people just because they wrote something you disagree with. Yes, they are making fun of TH, maybe even over the line, the situation provided material for it. But if it's not to your taste, very simply do not engage and skip the post.
End of discussion. For everyone.
>>388 thank you.
posting the link of the photo in case the tweet gets deleted
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CLZFFbGWgAAZTph.jpg
Ooh, has he dyed his hair? Or is it just the light?
>>391 probably the light, even in those now infamous photos the DM recycled his hair looked darker.
>>391 I think it's the lighting, it looks like there's still that extra bit of blond in the front. Hard to tell though.
>>385 Ahhh, there's no need for vomit. Calm down.
And 'venomous,' really? We were having a little fun with the situation. I know I still love the little tyke, how could you not! But this is all a little messy, and therefore ripe for harmless jokes. In truth, I don't think he looks like a ferret, nor do I think he took advantage of the extra services on offer at the spa...that's what EO was/is for...kidding (not kidding).
And it doesn't surprise me that Tom has female friends - that are just friends. But it seems you are unwilling to believe that Tom has female friends that are more than friends, and that one of these 'more than friends' is EO.
Wow, that lady's tall.
>> 388 Thanks for posting - I saw it this morning and didn't really think to post it here. I will remember to in future.
Well, Anon, it seems like you desperately want to believe that he fucks every day and doesn't matter with whom. You will be surprised but he doesn't, nor he fucked Olsen or any of his co stars (KD was perhaps an exception) . But I'm.not going to waste my time on proving things you don't want to see and won't believe any ways. I'm just surprised and slightly upset that there are people like you that are YES venomous and vein. I would say "get life" but you won't any ways.
And dint worry, it's my last post here, because I don't need to read another Toby branch. No better.
Just consider yourself lucky we didn't get onto the subject of the large and lively ferret he seems to keep down his trousers....
Seriously though, we are all very fond of TH or we wouldn't be here chatting on a Sunday evening. But we do poke fun at his foibles in a lighthearted and sometimes slightly naughty way - without judgment from other posters. That was a part of this message board long before I arrived and I hope it will continue to be so.
