I don't think you can disable comments for a specific photo, so he had to just delete it if he wanted the discussion to stop.
At the very least, even if Tom doesn't see the photo fiasco on the internet, I'm sure JVR will tell him next time they talk.
What an absolute mess to start our new board with. JVR is sucked into the vortex that is Tom Hiddleston's love life. Seriously, though he is in the industry and TH was the star of his upcoming movie at the time of all the Pursegate articles. He must have seen that shitstorm and known this was a subject of massive interest. But he posts the picture anyway. What a wally.
FWIW the Celebitchy line on Fassy/ Alicia Vikander is that he never discusses their relationship or even confirmed its existence and she is desperate to say in every interview that she and he are an item. Eg for some recent awards ceremony they didn't walk the RC together but she couldn't wait to tell everyone she and he flew down together. I don't follow them so I don't know how fair this is (TH and his love life is a full time job!) but I found it funny given how EO has always seemed to be the one who Wants This Out There.
>>6 I also don't follow them, but by googling her, Alicia doesn't need to tie her name to a more famous actor to stay relevant, she is having a great moment, lot of recognition and nominees and her own franchise possibly if The Man from Uncle will have a secon chapter.
EO is the one who doesn't have any future project announced, the one that faces competition from actresses her age (let's remember she is 26) and older since she really doesn't look her age (no shade, she said in a recent interview that people always tell her how she looks older), Scarlet Witch is no Back Widow, so all in all she needs the buzz and a better image.
>>8 you mean that's what she is aiming at, exploiting TH connections, or she has been already announced for something?
The BAFTA nominations were announced yesterday, was HR a possibility? At CB someone mentioned HR and BAFTA but I seem to remember the film it wasn't eligible for this year BAFTA. In Theory TH might be away in Vietnam on Febr. 14
http://deadline.com/2016/01/bafta-nominations-full-list-2016-1201678332/
>>8 I reckon you're right. It would give her cred as an actress (probably!) and it would make the booty calls a lot cheaper!
>>9 I think she got good cred from her performences in MMM and ISTL ... it would just be a way to work and be together, esp if the Oz Thor shoot is short.
Also: westend...so yes, cred.
this is a #tbt I imagine at some event/premiere

>>14 why would TH be at the GG? He has no reason to and he starts filming on Monday so unless he can teleport...
Besides, AWKWARD! Boyd will be there for Narcos.
Olly's new BFF aka the director's PA still has the photo up. So Olly surely knows.

Oh and I was right about Miyavi, he is definitely in this film
https://www.instagram.com/p/BASL9YGADQE/
Oh what do you know M you might be right after all, he was at W Magazine pre GG party last night, no photos and no EO mentioned in the list of guests, snap!

>>14 I imagine they will still want to be under the radar for a while. They may not yet be more than FWB, and even if they are now officially a thing, it is a bit soon. They have to find a plausible timeline, as I bet they will not want to admit they lied at TIFF, and will pretend that they truly were not together at TIFF and have somehow found love since then. At the present time there isn't much "since then" to play with - Oct to Dec when he has been away filming for most of it.
Just a quick post: tweets about people at TCA16 interviewing TH, so he is there.
I've got a work do tonight, but I'll read all the lovely posts and comment when I get home.
THEO - the gift that keeps on giving!!!!
>>19 I am so bad at Twitter. I searched #tca16 and #tomhiddlestn and got zero results! I rely on you for the juice later.
>>21 me too! Anon. tell me your secret!
I only found this one
https://twitter. com/reelvixen/status/685497112134463488
well, even the ReeltoursHawaii dude thought it was Erin they must really look similar.

anyway I forgot to post this before, but lex source in hawai was this girl that often chats with this hawaii guy @gailinterrupted
She wrote her dad worked in production and she was an extra when they cast Asian actors to film some scenes just before xmas.
I'm sure Torrilla will do better than me with videos and photos of TCA, the best I can offer you guys is the link to justjared, they are posting stuff from TCA.

>>20 I got what you meant, and to be honest I still think he won't attend the GG for the reason I gave you, filming on Monday. Actually, I don't know how reliable is that guestfaguest website, you won't find TH listed on the A list on W Magazine website because he is considered a B list actor, so unless we can find another source to confirm maybe he was there, maybe not.
I think we can rule out the GG, his name isn't in the first wave or the additional list of celebs

A HL site. Bigger pics.
Ugh. I was going to write a probably too-damn-long post about THEO. But I just don't have it in me.
So all I'll say is: If it can't be 'Ave JArthy' then any girl will do - and EO fits that bill. A real human woman should be his frequent companion - not a pair of boots or his PA.
Now, an important question to end the night:
Do we think TH has had his hair chemically straightened? It's longer but with no curl.
>>38 I've wondered that myself. I doubt he goes to the trouble of straightening it daily himself, so he either has it done professionally or all the years of drastic coloring have taken a toll on his hair. Did you also happen to notice the gray in his temples and by his ears?
>>37 I don't know Tom so I can only speak from my own personal experience, but I'd rather be alone than with someone who's not really what I'm looking for. There have been some stretches of time where I was single and I got the usual pitying comments and glances from friends and family, but it doesn't really bother me. I absolutely prefer to have a partner, but I find it better to be alone than in a draining or 'wrong' relationship. Tom strikes me as quite the workaholic, and he might very well prefer to just be single or hang with friends or be in some kind of casual arrangement instead of investing time and effort into something he knows isn't going to last.
>>38 >>39 This is a far more interesting question than who he's shagging. I am saying no to the chemical straightener on balance because the results are inconsistent and at times his hair is still very bouncy and sticks up. See for example the recent LAX IG photo with a male fan. I reckon because he was travelling we are looking at a self-administered blow dry there and it is very different from these pics (which are VERY straight and which I don't like - any man will look receding with his hair blown straight back from his hairline like that. Stylist probably didn't want to let him get away!!). His hair varied a lot in Toronto and NYC depending on who was doing it: for example here it looks very curly: http://freckletriangleofdoom.tumblr.com/post/136075729423/larygo-x-oh-my
Also in that photoshoot of him in a white shirt looking very blonde and curly (from same shoot as the one where he is up to the knees in leaves. Sorry - 5am and I am too tired to find a link but we all loved it on here due to his fluffy golden-ness).
It's very short at the mo - a lot of the curls have been scissored off (sob!) and it really wouldn't take long to dry. I imagine he's learned a thing or two after years of sitting watching other people do it.
He is wearing the same tshirt and jacket he wore at the airport. I despair.
Am I alone in thinking he looks a tad stressed in these pics? He usually looks dreamy and smiley even when not actively smiling but there is a lot more bitchy resting face in these photos.
>>38 >>39 >>40 if anything all the drastic colouring would dry his hair even more making it even more curly, he probably put some gel soon after washing to have a neater look. I imagine when it's longer the curls must be difficult to handle.
Anon, which photo for the gray?
>>39 anonsy I agree with you, much as I felt sorry for him (as much sorry as you can feel for a good-looking talented, famous, rich actor) when he was nominated as ambassador for BFI and he didn't have anyone important by his side to celebrate, I think being with a fill-in or the wrong person will make you feel even more lonely. Not to mention it's ver insensitive toward the fill-in to lead her on.
>>41 yes, a bit tired and tensed, but it'd be easier to judge in a video, photos can be deceiving.
The Hollywood Reporter also confirms the presence of TH at the W Magazine GG Party so he was there and he was flying solo.

I went and recovered the laser-tag photo
https://scontent-frt3-1.cdninstagram.com/hphotos-xpf1/t51.2885-15/e35/12237305_507821356065073_497467517_n.jpg
I've got to say guys, that this (and the collage photos) is a step further then the BoraBora hand, I mean I thought that when TH walked off stage in Nashville leaving her alone to flap her arms was weird enough for someone so chivalrous and courteous, but here and in the collage he's basically ignoring her!
>>39 Re: greying temples - I see it here (direct link in case you're on a phone) Also, will someone please tend to that nasty looking spot above his lip that's about to pop? http://cheers-mrhiddleston.tumblr.com/post/136916555422/tca-the-night-manager-panel
Here's a collection of TCA16 tweets from charmed Hollywood journalists; watch out, it's all kindy gushy: http://zhora-salome.tumblr.com/post/136912761811/so-it-seems-like-tom-may-have-charmed-an-entire
>>43 You can see the gray coming in on the sides in this pic, courtesy of torrilla: http://ww4.sinaimg.cn/large/6e14d388gw1ezt13q3e06j21lu2bcnpd.jpg
Apparently, this tweet in particular was responsible for those WTF looks TH (and possibly HL) were making during TCA16: http://calgal48.tumblr.com/post/136925441012/freckletriangleofdoom-aishet-chayil
>>48 excellent closeup. I can definitely see that it's grey growing in.
>>51 I know anonsy, as I said yesterday can this man be really that stupid or willing to do all this pseudo PR game for a film that is DOA? A 34 years old man not even knowing how feels about someone he has been friend with for 4 year and fwb for a year so he goes and denies something that he plans to keep on doing? It doesn't make any sense at all.
>>49 I wonder what the tweet was, but this is why this silly situation with EO is problematic, when the time comes to do press for ISTL in March journalists will surf the internet looking for infos about those two, so even if the collage now won't make it to the media, it will still be found and possibly used in the near future.
>>54. It was a photo, according to another post somewhere, but what the photo was of, I know not. According to yet another participant tweet, TH thought it was stalker-y ( though it was not clear if he did or did not use those ). Can't wait to watch the video of the interview. I love Hugh.
A bit more curly haired Tom. It's all in the blow dry - I like this much better!
In my last post, I meant to say, in parentheses, that it was not clear whether or not TH actually used the word 'stalker' or used words that directly implied the reporter was one.
The Guardian today memorably described the Golden Globes as "the Liam Hemsworth of awards ceremonies"
!!!
>>59 It seems like he rented another villa. Come to think of it, Olly was staying with TH in Hawaii; it must have been awkward if EO was around during that weekend.
>>60 help a non-native here, is that a compliment or an insult?
>>63 I am assuming it is an insult, LH being a poor man's Chris Hemsworth.
>>8 >>11 I wonder if she's got the chops or name for a West End run. As I understand, to star/headline, you've got to either have true acting cred/significant stage experience or a name to make productions take a gamble on you. Does she really have either?
She received rave reviews for MMMM (is that enough Ms?), but her movies and work has been a little meh since then. Before TH and before THEO, I saw MMMM, Liberal Arts and Old Boy. I loved MMMM - a really engrossing story, characters, everything. And her performance was spot on - very realistic and natural. Liberal Arts was awful, so her performance was compromised by the plot/cheesy dialogue. Old Boy: I actually liked it (maybe the only one), but of the performances I found hers to be the weakest (maybe tied with the guy who played the Stranger). And despite being in a Marvel movie, I don't think she's that big name or cache wise. She's still the twins' sister before anything of her own making.
I feel like she would need to audition for a West End play - that is theatre/producers wouldn't be offering her things. Not even if TH had a word in someone's ear - I don't think he has that sort of pull.
>>61 Nah. Olly would have gone to stay with his PA buddy. TH probably put a tie on the front door and Olly knew he had to make himself scarce. Or, she got her own place and they went there.
>>60 So does that make the Oscars the CH of awards. Shows you how important those are! Christ, what does that make the Grammys? Because that shizza is even more down market.
>>64 and me always thinking the GGs were better than the Oscars because they are given by foreign press.
>>66 You beat me to it due to a grocery delivery. I bet that is how the bromance started.
>>68 Olly in Australia? He tweeted a link to his instagram and it seems like the garden of a villa
https://www.instagram.com/p/BAJvN_-mimKJVyAJQ0geMGtlWXGUAbci8qa0aU0/
Looks very much like the UK to me. Bare trees, wet, mossy paving stones. Bird feeders in the back garden.
>>69 At this point, all movie awards are the prizes at the end of a very expensive and calculated game. The game of selecting the bait-iest film (look for dark, troubled, outsider characters!!) and then throwing money and PR hand-over-fist at whatever body of voters exists.
I don't think the HFPA are anymore reliable or immune to campaigns than any other voting body. Although, by all accounts, Academy voters are those most swayed by campaigns.
>>65 There has been the odd thin-on-talent celebrity casting in the West End - for example LiLo in Speed the Plow, which raised a few eyebrows. That said, LiLo has a greater notoriety I suppose. I imagine most Daily Mail readers were aware of who she was and what her story was whereas I doubt EO is really known in that way.
As to acting chops, I'd say she traded on her family connections to leverage good looks and a fairly mediocre talent into one or two good movies and a number of later ones of gradually declining quality. Save for AOU, a franchise which is definitely bigger than her, her career has been on a downward track recently (jury's out as to whether ISTL will revive it). I think she also traded for a while on the general amazement that she was a better actress than her sisters (who set a low bar - I read an article recently that said they couldn't even act as babies!). However that only works for a while and as people have said on here, she is not an ingenue any more. Her apparent lack of new projects (I checked IMDb just now and there is nothing even in pre production) speaks volumes - for her career and also I'd say for her more limpet-like qualities around TH.
I VERY much doubt he could get her or anyone a gig in the West End. Unless, maybe, he agreed to play opposite her - which would be a guaranteed earner. Unless he is very much more in lurve than his evasiveness about the relationship suggests, I think that is unlikely! I cannot imagine him wanting his return to the stage to be a circus like that would be.
>>74 I think one could spend a lot of time as a fly on Olly's shoulder without getting soaked by the sweat from his hardworking brow. He seems to be less PA than paid companion (of the type that old ladies had in Victorian times, simultaneously lowly and Svengali-like).
Long time lurker, first time here posting. I have't a clue what I'm doing!
>>79 Is that your postcode? If so, welcome, fellow north Londoner!
And if not, welcome in any event! We're not like the others [manaical eye roll].
Thank you Couch Potato, I'll take a look at that. Yes, good spot on the postcode, I am a North London girl.
>>81 Perhaps in a reflection of the anarchic yet besotted spirit of this board, the link is to a comment from Anon. about TH polishing his glasses!!!!
Lady Hiddles and the Paid Companion! That is priceless.
>>79 It's fairly straightforward. The main thing is: clicking on the number of a post will link it in your message box. Or two left facing arrows and the number.
Otherwise, just post your thoughts, any TH links you find, gossip and speculation are more than welcome, too.
>>82 And we AREN'T like the others - we're sane - for the most part.
EO has a handbag. Maybe she can take care of these items.
>>85 I should have read more carefully ;) There's nothing like sharing a beer with your BFF
>>76 I wonder if she's keeping things open to advance the relationship, i.d., be available to fly to him since he's traveling and filming.
She has been limpet-like (great simile!), however, I don't think it's been completely one sided. He's a big boy, he can say no (behind closed doors, if not in the public eye). But it doesn't seem like he has.
Welcome N8Anon! I guess I'm no longer the newcomer.
>>76 One of the tumblr posters confirmed earlier this week that TH doesn't have anything listed in the pipeline in IMDBPro (more info there than their public IMDB), which seems a bit worrisome, unless he requested nothing be listed for privacy/strategy reasons. I don't have an account, but I'll do some sleuthing and get back to you on EO.
>>93 When did a man last say no to no strings attached, I drop my life to tend to your needs sex?
>>93 goodness until last year he couldn't even say no to his fans and he actually admitted in an interview to no being able to say no, so I wouldn't be so sure.
>>95 His public IMDb at least shows SI and Thor 3 as current or forthcoming, which I guess takes him up to the end of this year. Hers shows nothing except Infinity Wars in post production. Be interested to know what her pro one shows.
>>97 Oh yeah, that's the public eye part - I agree, he can't say no to strangers (you know, the non-confrontional pleaser type).
I do, however, think he's capable of saying no in private and, more specifically, of ending a relationship. I mean, do we think Ave JArthy, full of thirst, (crosses self) ended that relationship?
