Thread to talk about actor Tom Hiddleston.
The whole Heat piece is all sorts of shady. I'm gonna file that one in my "made up for clicks" pile. I'm going to stick with what we get from People, US Weekly, and maybe E! news and DM.
>>400 He misses the grand life and this is the closest he can come to it on his own dime. Probably looks stressed because he's worried about traveling with the common folk and of course, Brexit has him having all sorts of stressed and having mental breakdowns. Obviously.
Now I think I know why he wore the t shirt. Taylor is on an anti-free the nipple campaign. Only she will see Tom's nipples from now on.
>>403 Did DM just call that pic "cringeworthy"? Hahahahah! And they spelled his name wrong. I love how DM isn't even making an effort anymore and just saying what everyone is thinking lol
>>403 "Losing his train of thought" "Tom looked in the grip of fear as he careened" "Mr Slippery" hahahaha!
>>403 "Tom looked in the grip of fear as he careered down the enormous inflatable moistened chute, while the ladies shrieked with glee behind him."
They're having a larf.

Airport pics show a sad, slumpy and sunburnt man. I hope he has a pity party welcoming him at the other end

'maybe he is gearing up for the launch of a new perfume. Cringeworthy, the debut fragrance by Tom Hiddleston'
>>408 The face of a man who knows embarrassing paparazzi photos are in his near future. Perhaps he wasn't too excited about Taymerica after all. The shirt was his punishment for lack of proper enthusiasm.
>>408 I'm starting to wonder if that is a genuine expression or he is only pretending, if you look stressed at the idea of taking part at Tayamerica, why wearing that tshirt?
>>402 That's what I thought, that his Deadpool was showing! I bet if Reynolds could he would write a ironic tweet on this.
Best part of the DM article: a comment which labeled TH a 'cringe burger.'
About the plane: if it dropped off the radar in NJ, it probably just landed at Teterboro. Perfect airport for private planes to land at if the occupants want to get back to NYC. It's probably TS ferrying the squad back.

If James Norton becomes the new Bond that would be ironic, because TH was his, oh-too-busy-to-help-you, mentor at RADA.
>>415 Was he too busy to help out? I don't recall reading that. Link to the dirt! (If you can still find it!)
!!!
""I don't mean these things derogatorily toward Taylor, but she's almost asexual. She's just not really a sexual being."

I don't know if the original interview was this or the one in the Glouchestershireecho as reported here
http://justjamesnorton.tumblr.com/post/139857439084/an-interview-with-james-photo-source-if-ever
>>418 Oooh thanks!
In other news: DM has deleted the "cringeburger" comment (booooo!) but has added a whole bunch of photos of Taylor interacting with her professional photographer. Wait for the nannies to say (as some already have on CB) that "they would do this if they were rich and had a cool party". Kind of missing the point that these pics find their way onto her friends' social media creating the false impression that they were snaps taken by the guests. The porch pic might have had a better reception if it had not so obviously been posed for a pro.
>>417 I think we can see that from every pic of her and Tom. He is all over her and she is into the hand holding and the closed mouth kissing.
Did you notice how he strongly hinted she is a lesbian without using the L word?
Apparently she was always bitching about Harry Styles being uncircumcised. Will she be able to appreciate the Conda in its full excitable glory? I somewhat doubt it.
https://www.instagram.com/p/BHhWsTqjypl
So a few things about this pic. Wine glass, presumably with wine in it, suggests she's not pregnant. She's too tightly managed and controlled, mostly by herself, to get pregnant before marriage...she ain't messy like me!!
Also how shitty and narcissistic is she as a hostess?? This isn't karaoke where everyone joins, does their song, goofs off. This is TS giving a TS concert and people are invited up to join HER. All the pics I've seen of 'karaoke' involve TS.
If anything this relationship will end because their narcissistic tendencies will overwhelm any true affection they have for each other. Two people have never needed to be the center of attention so much.
>>419 RIP Cringe Burger. Forever in our hearts!!
If it's true about her not being sexual, how did her and Calvin last 15 months?
>>421 Maybe he's getting paid through product placements in the pap strolls? But I can only see that for when they were in the UK. Or maybe she does lock her bfs in some sort of NDA. Or maybe she just gives enough where the guys think they'll get lucky later? So lots of closed mouth kisses and dry humping?
Either way, I don't see how someone like Tom can last for long without any sex.
No, cringe burger lives!! It lives! http://4-ch.net/img/src/1467812218043.png
>>420 >>421 I think they've done the deed. But I also think it is as awkward and non-spontaneous as their PDAs. I've said before that a man will often up his kink level depending on the woman in his bed. This couple screams 'two pieces of melba toast' between the sheets: bland, boring, unfulfilling.
On a positive note, they may have invented a new sexual position: The Cringe Burger. It involves reading the personally insulting comments from a tabloid mag before engaging in boring, quick and shame-fiiled coitus...while wearing an I heart T.S. wife-beater. Go on, try it yourselves.
Sex? Yes. Good sex? No. Not if the PDAs are anything to go by.
>>422 with a slide called Tayamerica you can hardly expect the party be about other people.
>>423,424 LOL you forgot: not making any noises else the bodyguards rush in to kill you and be done in time forher to organize their next photo adventure!
Idk, would Harris have survived 15 months of bad sex? Maybe NewAnon is right, they all sign a NDA that states: no tongues, no genitals.
"Taylor Swift’s Fourth of July Party Looks Like a Lot of Work"
http://time.com/4394014/taylor-swift-4th-of-july-instagram-2016/?xid=homepage
For most men bad sex is better than no sex. And bad sex with a girl who is cute and fun and rich probably retains its appeal for some time, if not indefinitely.
Also if TH is not the world's greatest lover, not great sex might be what he's used to. My friend who saw him at the Nuffield said she got the impression that he was rather prim and probably thought 2 seconds of cunnilingus was the dirtiest thing ever. She also suggested that if you were making out and whispered "William Shakespeare" into his ear he would instantly come on your leg.
>>419 Bullshit. My husband went to Choate and then Harvard premed and med. (he's the posh, overachiever in the marriage). The friends/connections he made at those schools has afforded him, and me as his grubby +1, the opportunity to attend some pretty big, rich people parties: a few in Sag Harbor and East Hampton and several up in Greenwich, CT and Fairfield county. These people are as rich as TS, if not richer. At the engagement party in Sag Harbor - no professional photographer. At the fundraiser in Greenwich, no professional photographer - and it was a fairly important fundraiser with a few C/B-list celebs in attendance.
Normal peeps, even very rich peeps, don't hire a professional photog for their parties unless they want to be seen. Maybe she can't breath air and needs social media exposure to stay alive.
>>428 Too bloody right they don't. I might just about believe it if we had seen none of those pics AND if this was a one-off party. Neither is the case. This man was hired because Cara or Blake or whoever might not have taken sufficiently flattering IG pics of dear Taylor. And God damn, there were going to be flattering IG pics of this party come what may
Yes, this is the sleepover of a spoiled 15 year old who only ever invites friends who are just a bit less pretty or successful than her, and prances around flipping her hair and being in all the pics.
the only interesting discussion I found at CB, about how TH is burning his theatre rep in the UK

1) white pants
2) how much has he been eating the last 2 weeks? In that side on pic he looks tiny.
http://tom-nippleston.tumblr.com/post/146999266307/quoting-shakespeare-to-ducks-for-tom-those-are
>>431 the same story was reported by Life&Style. It sounds as credible as the Coriolanus producer.
I'm copying and pasting this from TOD
"Here's the video of a the British morning show questioning if Hiddleswift is real. The host says he spoke with Tom's close friend and was told he would never wear the tank top: youtu.be/60ENBHmDqms"
Btw, this show did another ep about this, in cas you missed it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Lv-qdfw7r4
Someone pointed out that the glass TH is holding has an "S" monogram...is this a thing in to US or is this a Taylor thing?
Moving in? Marriage? This circus has taken on a life of its own now.
>>435 I wouldn't put it past her to have monogrammed wine glasses. Her and her squad would think its pininterest cute.
This is very interesting, especially the opinion of the Publicist #3 (Anonymous, L.A.-based Film PR):
http://jezebel.com/ask-a-publicist-is-taylor-swift-and-tom-hiddlestons-re-1783144899
>>437 PR person #2 must be smoking crack if he seriously believes that the publicity has helped TH's brand and he now has Hollywood eating out of his hand to offer him every role!
>>436 Well, in a certain way, he's already moved in with her. He spends all his time with her, in her houses, her plane, her cars, with her bodyguards, her friends and her money. He's Mr Swift now.
>>438 Could be what Tom's own agent is telling him and that's why it all just gets worse day by day.
>>439 That's true. He was supposedly staying in a hotel in NYC after the first RI or so it was said.
Since it's getting pretty brutal for him out there, I wonder if he's gonna bail now or if he'll really go all the way and wife her.
The performance art piece conspiracy is really picking up now and maybe it's me but I don't see what commentary Taylor could possibly make about fame and celebrity after having done Blank Space already. If she's going to for a Lemonade style visual album, will it be like a G-rated visual album? Because her fans age.
>>431 InTouch and L&S are pretty much the chum of the tabloids. They truly are making shit up. Entertaining shit, but shit...watch me have to eat my words in 3.4 seconds!
>>438 He doesn't understand what TH's previous public image was. It's not just that he's dating TS. It's that he's done a 180 from his previous 'self' - which is never good for someone in the public eye.
>>439 Can't disagree. I wonder if that's about control and her keeping it. If everything is hers, he can't control it. They seemed most miserable - and she approaching angry - when they were on 'his turf' in the UK and she perhaps couldn't swing the hammer as much as she would've liked.
>>427 This is true. But men - even those who've only ever had bad or mediocre sex - still have a sense that it's a low rung on the sex ladder. Because they have friends that have had good sex, great sex, and those friends have spoken about it.
Men will take bad sex over no sex, but they still know that it's bad.
You can piss off your fans, your friends, your family...but once Phillip Schofield turns against you...TH, girl, you in danger!
Also, Rylan Clark is commenting on your personal life...RYLAN CLARK!
I also love that one of his close friends - I do actually believe that Schofield may have spoken to said friend - was like, 'He wouldn't wear that shirt.' Even his friends don't know WTF is going on!
>>443 Features some of what Coach posted above, but has some new info, so I thought it was worth a post.
We haven't linked much to Lainey, but here are a couple of perceptive pieces:
Suggesting that TS is deliberately withholding the official insta debut on her account until there is nothing much going on and it will be a story in itself: http://www.laineygossip.com/On-Tom-Hiddlestons-problematic-relationship-with-Taylor-Swift-and-how-its-affecting-his-supporters/44319
And why it's not performance art: girl, you ain't no Bey: http://www.laineygossip.com/First-official-photo-of-Taylor-Swift-and-Tom-Hiddleston-released-on-friend-Britany-Maacks-Instagram-with-Ryan-Reynolds-and-Blake-Lively/44315
The TS plane was on the move again this afternoon at 2:15pm. No idea where it went, though. I just don't know what TH has to gain from performing in a performance arts video, if that's what's going on. TS does have a house in Malibu, it was profiled in Vogue, though I think that story is false about the moving in together.
The whole relationship is still a puzzlement to me. No one but the Swifties seem to buy into the concept that their amour is organic w/o some other kind of agenda behind it. The problem is that even if TS premieres TH on Instagram, they just don't seem to have physical compatibility as a couple in photos. The kisses and the short embraces are weird. The constant hand holding is forced. Everything is either too posed or just awkward. THs pics with Susannah in the green dress were really warm photos, and those photos were taken right before they broke up!
How is TH going to get out of this? He is so fastidious about his reputation he must be freaking out! Will he even get the Emmy nomination, now? Do you think they are setting this up to end in late summer, or early fall? it's weird because their credibility is in question. If they really are serious about each other, they should probably just go black ops, and let us catch them together.
>>445 Thank you Lainey! I really don't think Taylor has it in her to create something that makes a statement like Lemonade. She does high school stuff for her teenage demographic and they're always ecstatic with her "all about boys" storytelling in her songs.
After reading Lainey's piece, it does make sense that Taylor would make a show of her IG reveal with THidds. They both want each outing, each date to be a headline. Tbh, it's all a bit obnoxious but the media and people's reaction to them cracks me up. It's like they unveil a date to impress and only the Swifties and the Hiddlestans rejoice while the rest of the world snarks, including the people paid to do the unveiling.
>>446 I had the same questions but now I'm thinking these two are just so try hard that the more we laugh at them, the more they'll shove their love down our throats. It's like unless the public validates and applauds their relationship, they're not happy. They NEED our validation. Which honestly screams uncool and desperate. If you like each other then go for it, why bother making a spectacle out of it? But if you're the type of person who thrives from people pleasing and people approval, like Tom and Taylor are, then it's not enough to just be in love. You just HAVE to wear it as a badge of honor and NEED people to approve it.
I think it was Anon. or Anon who said jokingly they're both the type to masturbate together while reading about themselves. But it's obvious now that that's the truth.
>>446 Whatever is going on, I suspect it will be going on for at least the next few months. As many on here have said, they're not pulling back, they're plunging ahead. I expect that plan to continue...blindly, madly, sadly.
>>445 When their coverage - for whatever reasons - drops beneath a certain point, voila, Tay's IG will light up all the colors of TayTo!
>>448 Anonon maybe?
>>449 oh okay. I'm too lazy to scroll up and check lol
Tumblr cray-crays say her plane is on the move. Nashville to Connecticut to LAX.
The London Times Hiddlehoax article by Carol Midgley has just said that TH looks like a needy stalker in a wife beater...ouch.
Http://theopiniondominion.tumblr.com/day/2016/07/07/
Marilyn Monroe did say, if they can love you they can hate you. These are the journalists that review his plays!
>>453 I love that article:
'The alpha couple have been papped meeting each others' parents, having a mini- break in Rome, hand- kissing vommily in a restaurant and snogging on a rock in a set of perfect stills that could have come straight from a 1960s Durex advert.'
http://www.justjared.com/2016/07/06/taylor-siwft-tom-hiddleston-catch-flight-out-of-rhode-island/
Pics of the Durex ad on the move. TH is either ranting or singing
>>448 Mutual media masturbation was me. At the time I was joking but I'm coming around to believing my own hype
>>454 LOL it looks like he's yelling and she's crying.
>>454 Yeah, it's beginning to look like you were right about this couple. I like to think H e's singing along to one of her songs and she's just not feelin it one bit. Because Taylor. Those pics are super grainy at the airport.
They're going to Australia together and they'll get papped as they arrive. Holding hands. Then when she visits him on set, they'll be papped doing a closed mouth kiss while he's dressed up as Loki.
Wait. The fans said that the plane went from Nashville to Connecticut to LAX. Did the plane drop her in Nashville and continue on with TH to LAX? Or did they just get it wrong?
And if that is THs angry face, I would not want to be near him when he's angry. Not sure if she's crying, or if she's just pensive. Not a lovey dovey car ride , for sure : )
My capcha proclaims 'bi'. Ha.
>>454 I am stuck on the sex aspect. We can gather that she's no longer a virgin - as someone pointed out in the Jezebel article comments, John Mayer would never date someone who wouldn't have sex with him. And TH looks like the type would spend all day in bed until your inner thighs are red (and believe me I looked for that in the pap pics, didn't see anything).
So here's the thing: I can believe they're staying with G-rated PDAs for her young fanbase - to maintain the illusion that TS is a wholesome girl who does not have sex until marriage. But I can't believe that TS is a good enough actress to FAKE that there's no sex and lie about it to people around her that would actually care - her parents, particularly her mother. I think she's too high-strung and anxious to be able to pull it off.
So, I would not be surprised if she is actually not having full-body contact sex with him, which makes mutual masturbation a technical solution to this dilemma (though many, like I, would disagree that is sex nonetheless).
>>457 I think it went to Nashville to drop off one of the non-celeb squad then back to CT or RI to pick them up then onto LAX.
>>456 At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if they did go to Oz together. This love cannot have an ocean separating it!
>>457 That's not his angry face, that's his 'listen to me talk your ear off' face. That's her 'I don't understand anything he's saying' face or just a downright bored face.
'One false move, and your red-white-and-blue swimsuit—which was forced into your hands on arrival by a harried-looking intern living on Wheaties and sheer panic in Swift’s basement—will be ceremonially burned....
It’s the poor photographer trailing after this band of tousle-haired lens-flies that one feels sorry for. Imagine toiling in the wake of this sonic boom of banality, trying to make such relentless ‘fun’ look spontaneous. If you see a hipster photographer, weeping alone at a Rhode Island bar, buy him a gin and tonic.'
And touchdown at LAX. Please let TH go to work. I don't know if I can deal with a season of them on the red carpets together. And did anyone see the pic of TH coming back from a run on the beach in Rhode Island today with her security guard? It's like he's living in little celebrity bubble.
Not sure what TSs face looked like in the jeep. If she had been drinking a little too much, there was certainly time to pull it together over the entire day before they went to the airport. She's usually a perfectionist. I wonder what they chat about?
Yesterday, as his I Heart T.S. shirt was drying on the towel rack next to his soggy dignity, TH (signed 'Tom') made a Facebook post about the ISTL DVD release, you know, The Work. There are about 200 comments, and while I didn't read them all, guess what they're overwhelmingly focusing on...ISTL?...Thor?...Kong?
>>461 I just saw that run pic with the guard. He really is enjoying living off her earnings. I get that she offers it to him but I have yet to see him treat her to something of his. They went to his mom's and he brought her that cheap gas station coffee. And the whole trip to Rome...and now that "blowing off steam" quote which could very well be fake but what if the reason Tom doesn't seem to care about his career and image dying is because he's using Taylor for all she has to offer? Money, connections, anything she can offer?
Just throwing out ideas. But him not hurrying to do damage control is interesting.
Oops. That's what happens when dating overwhelms your work life. Saddish. But not really, since he's a grown up.
Okay the dailymail has already posted the pic of TH and TS on the way to the airport in Rhode Island, and another article about Ruby proclaiming TS her the best friend ever! Is the dailymail on the payroll? 2 new articles already? Plus everyone saying she's the July 4th hostess with the mostest.
I'm calling it. The PR train is on hyperdrive for Swift. She is determined to stay in the public eye for the entire summer. TH is along for a ride, but he knows not where. Hopefully it's not to hell in a hand basket. A video about celebrities, privacy rights, and the media wouldn't be that original. It's also a bit dangerous since she has such young fans and they over invest emotionally in her life. Real connections are about privacy, this is a connection w a PR kick. Hopefully she'll visit Australia but not not ruin the Thor shoot. And TH is enough of a pro and enough of a guy who likes his space, to probably want a little alone time while he works. I hope.
>>463 I Agree. His home in London is safe, his neighborhood is not affected by this press, and as odd and invasive as the pap walk with his family was, the press is not going to follow his young niece or mother around the UK. At most they may follow TH when he visits Suffolk. His daily private life is still in his own private realm far from the madding crowd. He's nobody's fool. And if he ever wants to loved by the theater community again, all he has to do is nail another performance in the West End, and the Brits will just be relived that they get the old Tom back.
And anyway, even if the monkey movie doesn't fare well, no one besides Leo, Denzel, and maybe Bradley Cooper are systematically opening movies as a matter of process. Franchises are destroying our loyalty to individual projects. TH wants to be a Hollywood leading man, but that role is quickly becoming mythological.
>>463 Her lifestyle is plush for sure, But no woman wants a man who uses her for money. Can't see him laying around and eating Bonbons all day and keep dating any successful woman for too long. And I don't think his career is dying. He's banking on Emmy and Globe nominations for TNM for access to better scripts rather than picking one now.
Interesting comment on the Jezebel article that backs up the mutual masturbation theory:
'Publicists (and, by extension, we) are missing the point entirely. The real question here is: Do they (Tay & Tom) even know if it is real or fake? Having spent a lot of time around celebrities, I can tell you with some modicum of certainty that what propels them into relationships is not the usual reasons of lust or desperation. Sometimes they are just tickled by the idea of it—it seems right because the 2 parties are both of some relatively rarified caliber where most people’s sense of reality ceases to persist. These 2 cut a rug during the magical Met Ball, and then decided it would be fun to hang out, and now they are caught up in a whirlwind of how fun it is to have the entire world waiting with bated breath to see you kiss and be cute on vacation. This is why they are already meeting each other’s parents—it’s craziness, not something a normal couple would do, but it’s so fun and hilarious, fuck it, let’s just do it!!! This is why you have so many random celebrity pairings that eventually fizzle out—they aren’t ‘real,’ by any stretch of the imagination; they aren’t ‘fake,’ though, either.'

They're heading to Australia?! www.news.com.au
And she s teasing the diamond ring on her right hand second finger. Wow. What is Marvel thinking?
>>467 That's what they sound like. More caught up in the idea of their images in a relationship and the world's reaction to them. Honestly it's getting boring now. At least for me. Before it was fun to see what they got up to but now it's obvious it's just going to be public sightings and tabloid stories about how crazy in love they are.
Ugh. I was hoping he'd go alone, but I can't say I'm surprised.
They're going to have to be careful with the "paparazzi" or Marvel will throw a fit - you know how they are about secrecy on their film sets.
What's she going to do with herself while he's busy working? Does she have any Squad members in Oz? Do you think she'll try to befriend Chris Hemsworth's wife? That'll be interesting, since Liam Hemsworth is with Miley Cyrus who is an outspoken Taylor hater.
And on their way to Oz apparently.
I feel like a month, maybe two, is going to tell us everything we need to know about TayTo. After the mad whirlwind romance, they're actually now heading into the pressure cooker. He'll be working, she'll be spending a lot of time with him (and his colleagues) - unless she has an Australian squad waiting for her. It's going to almost be like real life - ish.
If she spends a significant amount of time down there with him and isn't constantly arranging pap strolls during his downtime from work, but instead is building a solid relationship based on quality and quiet time spent together - then I'm going to hang out my 'TayTo 5evah' banner and say this one's got some legs.
If she doesn't spend a lot of time with him and/or continues to publicize the last ounce out of this relationship, I'm going to continue to give it a major side-eye until they get married and have children (then I'll end the side-eye).
>>454 bloody hell, every time I see him climbing into her private jet or driving her around in her car, any appeal he had diminishes.
Captcha says quer. Hmmmm.
The third LAX pic is my fave. They are matching in navy. Sadly, TH has a rather large blemish under his right eye. Buck up Tom, you signed up for a quite ride. Maybe she's staying till comic con.
There are a lot of 'ifs' in this.
>>443 I also had the impression that Phillip Schofield did talk to this friend, what I was unsure is whether the friend said that to mean "As I know him it's not in his nature so WTF is going on" or "I talked to him and that wasn't him so".
>>445 If this is for a video Lainey is right, not only she is not Bay, there should have been an element of surprise and most of all we were supposed to believe this was for real. Other than the Swifties and the TH's fangirls, we all think this is fake (for different reasons), we all already hate the material. The only thing that would make it interesting would be if her break-up with Harris was also fake or if this is the most original coming out in history.
Also, if this is for a video it can't go on forever.
>>476 There's an insane amount of downtime on feature films, especially ones like this. It's a no brainer for him, he's played this part so many times I doubt he has to devote much time at all to his role. It's a minimum 8hr turnaround (between shoot days) in Oz as opposed to limitless in the US and usually weekends are free and he'll have quite a few rdo's. They might even shoot out all his scenes in a block so he's finished early.
He'll have plenty of time for TS.
There's no way in hell TS is staying in cheap-ass Marvel accommodation. The Hemsworths have rented a mini mansion, she will do the same.
>>473 I bet she flies some sqaddies down under to keep her company, she doesn't strike me as a loner.
If they keep pap strolling in Oz my eyes will roll out of my head onto the floor.
>>471 I hope she takes her photographer along to the Miley reunion.
The pressure cooker will be a real test for TS. I gather she's never attempted anything full time before and TH doesn't strike me as someone who would enjoy coming home to a boiler bunny every evening
I had hoped that perhaps Tom going off to film in Australia would give us a bit of a reprieve from this nonsense, but unfortunately it seems like Taylor will be attached to Tom at the hip (or more likely, hand) for the foreseeable future.
The first few days of it I was annoyed. I felt like I'd been duped, and I wanted none of it. Then he dragged his family into it and I got so mad that I started commenting on it again, just to vent my anger. After that I stuck around because watching the cringeworthiness and the media dragging was entertaining.
Now, it's just not even funny anymore. It's like I've gone through the stages of grief or something, except instead of acceptance the final stage is not giving a f*ck. I'm not even interested in watching how it plays out anymore.
If they get married and have a dozen kids or if they break up a week from now, I'll still be side-eying the hell out of this for all eternity. It's been so staged and managed - even from the first interaction at the Met Gala, IMO - that I'll never believe anything between them is completely genuine.
The only think I'm mildly curious about at this point is how badly she'll rip into him in the press when it's all over, but even that? Not so much. Plus, it's not like I have to follow the news to find out anything about them as TayTo is being shoved down my throat everywhere I go. I'm sure I'll be sufficiently bombarded with the tragic breakup tale in 2-6 months.
TL;DR I'm over it. I won't say I'm leaving for good, since I'll probably lurk a little and maybe even post once in a while. I've really enjoyed chatting with all of you - even though we've had differing opinions and disagreements, the discourse been fun, logical, and sane. A rare find on the internet, or even in real life, for that matter. Perhaps I'll make myself a t-shirt that reads "I <3 my 4-ch Kareha message board friends" and wear it to a romantic beach somewhere.

Great read for shits and giggles and the double dose of shade thrown by zooming in on THs sweaty fivehead
>>479 anonsy, I feel you and you know you are always welcome.
Indeed even if it ends or it turns out to be some documentary video, it won't be possible to go back the way it was before with TH, this was just too much to digest all in one go, for everyone I think. If it goes on...yuck, I think this would be the end of our threads, I won't certainly waste more time cmmenting.
The Times article's about Tayto, ouch!

>>479 anonsy, I will miss your insight, you brought a lot to the table here. Best wishes, please feel free to change your mind. :)
>>462 You know I haven't even noticed it was one of his post instead of the usual teamtom? His feeble attempt at pretending his work is of any interest right now is embarrassing. Did he write on fb because on twitter the scorn would have been too much?
>>485 sadly, not even a Seneca quote about the shortness of life can save him this time. Blah. His facial expressions in the pics aren't so great, but maybe the paps yelled frustrating things.
>>479 I'm feeling similar anonsy. I'll probably hang around a bit, as you're all sound people to chat to and I enjoy reading your posts.
>>479 Hey anonsy, I'll be sorry to see you go. You were here long before I was, right from Tom Hiddleston 1, and you made this board what it is, and what made us all come here. I hope you drop by again soon xx
>>487 Don't leave, N8! I need someone to go drunkenly to Skull Island with!
>>489 Ha! I might be living in Cornwall by then (long story). I'll make a special trip back to town so we can drunk watch together.
I can't quite believe he has taken her with him to Australia. Someone on the Opinion Dominion wrote that if we assume they were together when he was spotted in Nee York getting a pizza, they have spent 2 days apart since 10 June. That's a lot of time with each other 24/7 at the start of a relationship.
On the one hand this makes me think it will work - it reminds me of how having a relationship was as a student. You have a lot of time on your hands and you usually live in very close proximity so you can be together a lot. And you have no responsibilities so you can head off backpacking together if you like. A lot of people marry the people they met at college which I always thought was because as an adult in the real world it's harder to make that connection because real life gets in the way.
On the other hand, when you are a student you aren't actually living together. And these two don't seem to have spent much time alone together. As a 35 year old with a job, how wise is it to move in with someone you barely know after a month? I have to say, of all the insane things TH has done, I think this is the maddest. I would want a pause for reflection at this point, and to focus on getting back into work mode. She can always fly out in a few weeks if he can't bear to be parted from her.
Like everyone I want to see how/if this works with them just spending alone time together with no squad and no paps. If that happens. TH has been to Australia recently for filming. I wonder how he will find the comparison between that carefree time, having what looked like real fun with his own squad, and how the Australian Daily Telegraph described Swifty's last visit (island paradise with at least 4 security guards at all time).
Couple of others random thoughts before I go and work for a living!
1) at the moment he probably couldn't get rid of her if he tried. She is clingy, rich and has time on her hands. If she says, "darling, why don't I come to Oz with you?" he can hardly say no unless he wants instant Armageddon.
2) however, what happens when she goes on tour? She was pretty focussed when she was with CH but touring, and as a result they spent a lot of time apart. He can't go with her if he is filming and I am not sure I can see him spending months on end not working and as her little tour lapdog. I predict that is when the wheels will fall off this one. When real life, the life that has made her so rich and successful, intervenes.

"Calvin Harris has beaten Taylor Swift to the punch, writing a cheating song ... about her.
The track is called "Ole," and it's written from Tom Hiddleston's POV. "

Omg! Calvin Harris just wrote a cheating song about Taylor Swift, from the perspective of TH. www.tmz.com
Supposedly about how she and TH got together behind his back. He alludes to the name Loki. Please someone double check this for me. John Newman in the singer.
>>493 >>494 Oh, the drama!
Caught with pants down.
So I guess that's why this relationship rollout was so sudden- it had been going on a long while and they couldn't hide it any more. I'd say even the fairytail Met dance-off was a PR tester.
This overbearing push has been a desperate attempt to establish a legitimate love at first sight scenario with a vanilla timeline.
>>493 Hahahahah! And here I thought it was all going to be boring. Damn he calls them both out! I love that it's from Tom's POV!
Feige and Marvel being ecstatic happy that Loki is being used for a highschool drama.
>>495 When is what I'd like to know, when before or after Met they could possibly have been together? The only moment would be the night of the Met and TH was seen leaving the day after for London.
>>496 Thank you Calvin for making this worth following for a little while more.
Harris and Swift were PERFECT for each other.
So! If TH and TS have been involved for a while, is this just a cover up for cheating to make it look like a romance?
Wait! If they were caught cheating by the paps, that would explain the exclusive photos for this alleged love tour. A blackmail. Give us an exclusive story or we'll expose you.
And if they actually like each other, why when kiss or touch does it look so awkward? They should easily be able to look hot and heavy? Are they still together or pretending to be together. Mind blown!
