>>798 My childhood was in the era of dial up modems. We didn't have squads. They were called "gangs of bullying bitches who weren't that much but thought they were the shit." They all still live in my home town. Some of them are grandmas now.

Random question: why does someone worth millions and millions of dollars look so bad? She looks like a frumpy 1980s soccer mom in that outfit, with the fringe. Is his how she thinks British women dress? Is this her doing her usual "dress like the upBF" schtick? If so, I wish the record to reflect that the vast majority of 26 year old British women do not dress like this. Women of TH's age don't dress like this either.

>>802 This second video!!

What do you do when you can't hold your sweater because you've got to keep your poorly chosen dress closed so all the paps who've called don't get a shot of your Taygina? If you're normal, you give your sweater to your bf to hold. Or he offers to hold it because he sees you struggling. OR...OR you detach your hand from said bf and hold your sweater with one hand while keeping the dress closed with the other.

What does Tay do? Gives her sweater to her bodyguard. Because heaven forbid you show your pish to the summoned paps, and heaven forbid you don't hold hands with your bf.

This relationship is odd.

>>764 I had a very late dinner with hubby last night. Baby or worry about baby (just general worry about me maaaaybe being a crap mother) is playing havoc with my sleeping habits. We didn't go out until 10 or so...and before that I was actually taking a four hour nap - you know, like a 90-year-old.

But I did post earlier in the day.

Don't worry about the double posts, Savvy. It happens to all of us, trouble with verification codes and the like.

>>803 If it was performance art she would have let it fly open to reveal a vajazzle spelling out I heart TWH.

>>802 I thought the Torrilla pics showed TH wearing what Hunter S Thompson described as a shit eating smile. He looks less angry and tense than embarrassed, like a man caught out on a date with his wife's sister.

806 Name: Couch Potato : 2016-07-10 14:42 ID:Heaven

>>803 people in an actual relationship do that, like when your bf/husband gives you stuff to keep in your purse so his pants don't look like he has misplaced his balls.

>>805 I like that definition!

>>806 Tom misread the memo. He gave Taylor his actual balls to put in her handbag.

808 Name: Couch Potato : 2016-07-10 14:49 ID:Heaven

>>807 LOL

Has anyone else noticed TS is the one that exiting gets "Thanks for coming Taylor". He counts for nothing. What a downfall.

809 Name: NewAnon : 2016-07-10 15:16 ID:QrAHUnpX

I guess they finally stepped out after Tom had to be reconditioned back into holding her hand and helping her into cars after how he ran off ahead of her when they landed.
His smile is those "yeah sorry that was me" fart smiles. And her facial expressions are choreographed as usual.

Yeah, I'll very surprised if this couple continues for months. Very surprised.

810 Name: NewAnon : 2016-07-10 15:25 ID:QrAHUnpX

That DM article about their date is filled with jabs hahah! "The (fame) hungry couple" "stuck to her boyfriend like white on rice" LOL! Even the rag mags seem done with their foolishness.

Check out the second video in this CB article. I don't think we have seen this yet. Apologies if we have.

"How's Taylor enjoying the beautiful Gold Coast?" A long pause and a nervous laugh: "I, I'm not going to answer that."

812 Name: NewAnon : 2016-07-10 15:48 ID:QrAHUnpX

>>811 That is just weird. I can get declining to answer "is she the one" because that's a ridiculous question. But something simple like is she enjoying herself...come on. Maybe it is true about her and bfs signing NDAs that say they can't talk about her in public.

813 Name: Anon : 2016-07-10 15:51 ID:hOUUKweE

>>812 Some of the comments on CB are gold: "you want to talk about the work? Sorry Tom, that ship sailed and sank to the bottom of the PR sea."

814 Name: NewAnon : 2016-07-10 16:11 ID:QrAHUnpX

>>813 CB has gone back to its usual bitchiness. They're calling Taylor rodent face and whatnot. For a while there it was all Hiddleswifties. There's one leftover KC I think who is always ready with an apologist explanation. At this point, I'm not sure who she's trying to convince more, herself or the other commenters.

815 Name: ?? : 2016-07-10 16:16 ID:QDqSuP7y

816 Name: Anon : 2016-07-10 16:28 ID:hOUUKweE

>>814 I liked the comment that she looks like a chipmunk because she has Tom's balls in her cheeks!

There is still a minority of irritating apologists. Veranda woman and that other woman you mentioned are insisting "they must be free to live their lives" and that being papped shows integrity because they won't be ruled by them, y'know.

That KC woman said that his refusal to discuss his relationship just proved that some things were indeed sacred like he said!!! As if the only thing needed to keep your relationship sacred from the paps was to refuse to talk about it, simultaneously with willingly living its most intimate moments in front of the world's press. What will she say when Tom and Taylor invite us into their simple, classy and intimate Hamptons wedding attended by only 500 of their closest friends and costing a chic £2.5 million?

It's like visiting a parallel universe scripted by George Orwell.

817 Name: NewAnon : 2016-07-10 16:36 ID:QrAHUnpX

>>816 My favorite comment so far has "she doesn't have implants! Those are Tom's balls!" I don't know if that's from CB or DM or LSA or that opinion tumblr. They've all honestly blended into one at this point lol

Veranda woman can't make up her mind between "let them live their lives you're speaking common sense" and her passive aggressive comments about TayTo that show she's unraveling at the idea of Tom dating openly.

KC never believed any of the pap strolls were staged so no wonder she believes he's protecting their privacy. I enjoy watching her try to kiss up to Sixer and fit in with the veranda crowd.

819 Name: NewAnon : 2016-07-10 17:00 ID:QrAHUnpX

>>818 Lol yeah I like our safe space. I know other fans are aware of this board but I'm really surprised they don't try to bully us. Maybe it's because we're so closed off and far off to cause a blip on the fanbase radar so people leave this board alone.

820 Name: KC : 2016-07-10 17:05 ID:34K6L3Sw

Why are you guys so blind? Tom and Taylor love each other. They should not have to hide their love. They should be allowed to go out together. It's just that she's so famous and beautiful that the paps follow her everywhere and take her picture. She's too beautiful, they can't help themselves.

Let's just leave them alone - totally what they want!! - and go over to the veranda for some homemade chocolate chip cookies. I got the recipe from Taylor who got it from Tom's mom!

And Taylor didn't get implants and I can prove it. Women often go from an A cup to a C cup in the span of a month. It happened to me, my sister, my cousin and 800 other Swifties I know. So there's your proof.

823 Name: Anon : 2016-07-10 17:17 ID:hOUUKweE

>>819 Long may that continue.

I've said before but I think the active online TH-lovin' community is pretty small, much smaller than the newspapers would have us believe. How many active TH tumblr blogs are there that actually generate material rather than passively reposting? 100? Most of the traffic in the TH tag is from them or reblogs from them. It's noticeable that we all know who the usual suspects are. Plus maybe another 50 regular posters on CB. And what, the same on LSA (I never go there), the same on DL and us - another 15 or so.

I know he has nearly 2m Twitter followers, but that is really not big in terms of Hollywood, or Twitter. Swifty has 80m, R Downey Jr has 7.5m. Even Hemsworth, who only got an account recently and probably finds it a challenge filling the 140 characters with words that he knows, has nearly 2m as well.

http://www.people.com/article/tom-hiddleston-taylor-swift-australia-italian-restaurant

"Taylor told the staff that Italian is her favorite food and she was very excited to try the food"

Remind me, it was TS in Rome a week ago, right? The-girl-that-coudln't-let-his-hand-go wasn't a clone or impersonator, was it?

828 Name: Anon. : 2016-07-10 18:44 ID:34K6L3Sw

>>825 I think maybe 'try' the food that the restaurant specifically serves, not Italian food in general. That's not the greatest sentence construction from the 'source.'

What I don't get is the 'several hours' bit. Is that several hours of him looking at his phone, as in Italy? Is that several hours of her showing him things on her phone, as in RI? What do these two talk about for several hours?

AND, what did the three bodyguards think of the food?

829 Name: M : 2016-07-10 18:50 ID:Qxc52eGS

>>827 her source again :))

830 Name: NewAnon : 2016-07-10 18:59 ID:Ivkw9/V3

>>827 "Swift, the source added, likes Hiddleston's "English ways."

"She has told me that she loves his accent and thinks he is so sexy," the source said. "He acts very English. He is also a big tea drinker."

Hahahhaha! What on earth?! Because that's what closes the deal when it comes to looking for a husband who'd make a good dad lol

This girl and her sources and her leaks are all geared towards the juvenile idea of what love and marriage mean.

831 Name: Anon : 2016-07-10 19:36 ID:hOUUKweE

>>830 Every man I ever went out with had a sexy English accent, drank a lot of tea and acted English (Taylor, here's a clue: they act English because they are!). She should come to London - she'd find 5 million potential perfect dads.

Where do the publicists get this stuff? Do they sit down with her once a week and say "now, Taylor, have you had the "kids" conversation yet?" Or do they just have a pre-written chronology that they feed to the press - they are 4 weeks and 3.5 days in, so today we must spill some juice about how they have looked at baby photos?

832 Name: Whatsinaname : 2016-07-10 20:03 ID:w9Q74kZP

Y'all are cracking me up. I haven't even looked at the pics/videos of today's papstroll. This is the first chance I've had to get on the computer today.

Now that the 'marry me' stalker in RI has been arrested I wonder if she feels a slight bit safer, or if she's even more afraid - hence the three bodyguards. That article I posted last night from rollingstone.com said when she bought her NYC apartment, she bought the apartment next to it for her bodyguards. Has she ever, in her adult life, gone out by herself.

And what ever happened to TH loving strong women? Does TS qualify by being able to smirk like a mean girl behind her bodyguards whenever she sees a camera flash? Or is it simply that she keeps going despite massive criticism to match the massive adulation?

Question for the group: when do you think her contract with TH will end? After her next album comes out? After he asks her to marry him (on her birthday, of course) - or she will ask him in a display of "feminism"?

833 Name: Whatsinaname : 2016-07-10 20:05 ID:w9Q74kZP

>>831 Anon, there's a script they're working off of as part of the contract. I'm serious. wink

834 Name: Whatsinaname : 2016-07-10 20:14 ID:w9Q74kZP

>>822 After seeing these, I'm back to believing she did not have a boob job.

>>827 Where's all the photos of their couple outings over the last few days- all those beach strolls?
They must've forgotten to call the paps...

A little off topic but Newman confirmed the lyrics were written by CH.
"When pressed about the meaning, Newman said: “Life’s life. People make good decisions and bad decisions, and they’ll do what they want, and sometimes it’s on camera."

>>834 Whatsinaname, you're right. I don't think she had A boob job. Two, possibly? ;)

838 Name: Anonon : 2016-07-10 20:52 ID:BBQ22Wm0

>>837 Two definitely. Things have amped up recently. No bra on this earth can perk A cups so high and round while remaining invisible. She used to be flat as a post.

839 Name: Whatsinaname : 2016-07-10 21:03 ID:w9Q74kZP

>>834 >>837 >>838 Auto-correct at play. I meant to say 'ready to believe she did have...' - after believing for a while that it was a pushup bra (Selena concert) or inserts (4th of July bikini top).

840 Name: Anon : 2016-07-10 21:10 ID:hOUUKweE

>>839 Phew. I know that all views are welcomed and embraced here, but saying Taylor hasn't had a boob job is pushing at the envelope!

842 Name: NewAnon : 2016-07-10 21:28 ID:Ivkw9/V3

She's definitely had two boob jobs. It's been gradual but her second one definitely pushed those puppies up and out. Tom appreciates a nice cleavage and if I'm gonna tinfoil this fiasco then factoring in how she began following him in 2014 on Twitter when she was barely following anyone, she could have had a crush on him and then her being on tumblr, you can't go on tumblr and not get smacked in the face by Hiddleston, she may have been figuring out how to land this Englishman. She got her guy except her man has literally become a laughingstock. She may feel great but let's see how great her man continues to feel with how his career and image is declining.

843 Name: NewAnon : 2016-07-10 21:46 ID:Ivkw9/V3

>>841 oh the comments are GOLD! Particularly loving the ones about him donating his testicles for her boob jobs lol

844 Name: Anon : 2016-07-10 21:50 ID:hOUUKweE

>>842 The first one was pre or with Calvin. Remember that pic of them when she is in a white dress and you can see the inner edge of the implants like a pair of saucers?

This one - not sure when she had it, but I have to say seeing her without a bra or supportive dress - I think she has gone too large. They aren't fully self-supporting without a bra. They are noticeably lower down her chest (for example compare where they were in her red bikini). I cannot fathom why anyone would want boobs that are big enough not to stay put.

845 Name: Whatsinaname : 2016-07-10 22:30 ID:w9Q74kZP

>>844 Me neither. Besides the size, part of that, from what I read, has to do with getting the implants above or under the supportive pectoralis muscles. If hers are above, then her doc did a piss poor job to create the illusion of saggy tits for someone so young.

"Tom made sure there were fresh flowers". In the presidential suite of the Hotel Russie, this is presumably equivalent to "showing up at the hotel".

Also: the quality of that hand kissing pic, which I thought was a random hotel guest pic, looks strangely close in quality to the rest. Was that staged too?

847 Name: Whatsinaname : 2016-07-10 23:26 ID:w9Q74kZP

>>842 Nope, I'm going to have to look for it unless you know where I can find it.

848 Name: Whatsinaname : 2016-07-11 01:03 ID:w9Q74kZP

I love it when a good observer with PR skills comes out of the woodwork to speak up. Nothing we haven't discussed here before, though. tl;dr: the OTT PR is damage control because of the sloppy overlap in relationships, and she's ashamed that the truth makes her a hypocrite. Also, the PR in RI was all about him but it backfired.

849 Name: NewAnon : 2016-07-11 01:58 ID:Ivkw9/V3

>>848 That makes Tom like a really horrible person. He's using Taylor and is manipulating the situation. But I guess it's karma that he's the one being laughed at while everyone says Taylor is being classic Taylor.

850 Name: Sosorry : 2016-07-11 03:36 ID:P+RH8GGx

>>848 TH and TS are complicit in this situation together. However, if we are to believe that TS was seen bossing TH around in Rhode Island demanding that this all be done her way, as the source suggested, Team Swift is in control of their relationship rollout. She is worth almost $300 million, and has a PR media relations team at her beck and call. TS is too big an empire to fail. I can't see Luke outsmarting Team Swift. The Sun rollout may have been to help TH look good, however, the staged quality of the photos, their awkward body language, the perceived difference in their known public personas (cultured Oxbridge thespian v. young country/pop princess), in combination with a volte face in the way in which TH conducts his private life, makes us continue to question this couple's authenticity.

Also, TH doesn't have the necessary resources to plan or pay for a worldwide extravaganza travel fest including a private jet, her bodyguards, a personal photographer, and security measures that administer to her safety concerns, etc. She is even the one who said that she wanted to travel this summer! She is not a victim of her own travel plans! TS is a solid songwriter and a kind philanthropist, but she is also a brilliant calculating woman when it comes to giving the media her story as she wants us to hear it. The marriage and kids dialogue is part of the romantic TS brand image. Otherwise, she would just be enjoying a summer hook up (as if there is anything wrong with that as a 26 year old adult woman in 2016)!

We're seeing more of TH's narrative in the dailymail with the Thor 3 shooting article about the sets, and after his run where he tries to talk about the work, but that's it. Hard for fans to focus on his work with all of the pap walks and that tank top situation.

In the long run, which I know nothing about, I can't see TS moving to London to be with TH, or TH living in the US, waiting for TS to get home from her international and national tours. She is young woman and an artist in her prime.

Not sure if the emmy nomination/lack of nomination will affect them. Not sure whether they will both come back for Comic Con, or whether she will stay on in Australia. Any thoughts?

>>851 there's that one but it's more obvious here http://images.lifeandstylemag.com/uploads/posts/image/70491/taylor-swift-calvin-harris.jpg

It's blatantly obvious there's no push-up action there. And you can't pull the Kim K tape trick if you don't have something substantial to begin with. Taylor has always been flat. I'm positive she was getting implants in between 2014-2015.

853 Name: Whatsinaname : 2016-07-11 04:30 ID:w9Q74kZP

>>849 I didn't get the feeling that the post made him out to be horrible, but a poor judge of the public and MSM (he and Luke, I guess).

Curious, how did you see him as horrible?

>>850 They are complicit, yes. I think the author of the post trying to point out a specific motivation for the constant shoving PR down our throats, which was blamed a variety of reasons (consider the audience of the post, which was submitted to the TOD blog).

I can't see her moving to some common street in north London, gated compound or not, because she can't move her bodyguards in. They live her wherever she is.

At this moment, I'm betting that she'll travel back to the US with him for SDCC but will not show up there. No idea if she'll stay; my guess is that as she gets closer to her next album release she'll have to go back to the US to do promo.

Right now I'm watching Entertainment Tonight, and she has a home in Hollywood, so let's see if he stays there (outside of the SDCC day) for any length of time.

Que romantico!

I like that she asked the restaurant NOT to comment when contacted. It's all on lockdown.

And there were photographers waiting at the restaurant. Not following them, but waiting for them. Of course.

855 Name: NewAnon : 2016-07-11 04:44 ID:Ivkw9/V3

>>850 Wait...I'm confused. Is this in reply to the PR anon on the opinion tumblr? Because that PR anon is saying Tom only set up the first RI pap pics and jumped the gun without Taylor's knowledge. So now because of that overlap making Taylor look bad, she's now put everything in overdrive and she's taken control of their whole relationship rollout. And he's letting her because it makes cutting out for him easier now. So the first RI pap pics Tom set up, the rest were all Taylor trying to save her perfect sweet girl image and pulling away attention from the shady overlap in one relationship ending and another beginning.

When they break up (which is coming up soon now), it's going to be he chose his work over her, and it'll be justified in the eyes of most adult TH fans because they her being clingy and following him on set. She'll get to play victim again but Tom will get all his fans back because they already blame Taylor for ruining his image first and now they're peeved that she followed him to work and will affect his performance as Loki. Tom's ex fans are ready to take him back and in the end, this breakup will set everything back to the way it was before Tom and Taylor got together. Tom will get his fans back, the serious media will forgive him for falling for a young pretty thing because in the end Tom came to his sense and chose his serious profession and not her immature way of life, and Taylor will go back to being the victim who will rise from the ashes with her next album which will be all about "its better to have loved and lost than have never loved at all".

It's pretty cunning. Tom's Eton Cambridge brain coming through. I knew a man like him couldn't be this naive. But unfortunately, this shows he's very thirsty for fame and isn't above using and manipulating for his own selfish gains. So he's just like the rest of Hollywood lol

Good god there's so many typos in my >>855 post sigh

857 Name: NewAnon : 2016-07-11 04:56 ID:Ivkw9/V3

>>854 *"It was hard not to notice the pair as they enjoyed dinner at Gemelli's Italian in Broadbeach, flanked by an entourage that one onlooker described to Fairfax Media as "bigger than that of most royals and politicians".

The onlooker said it looked like there were eight security guards present. To put that in perspective, Kim Kardashian West and husband Kanye West usually employ three bodyguards for protection.

Swift, who has accompanied Hiddleston Down Under where he is filming Thor: Ragnarok, arrived at the restaurant by two cars - an Audi and Range Rover - even though her place of residence was just 200 metres down the road."*

My god. How freaking obnoxious...it was just dinner. The POTUS travels like this for his coffee but he's the most powerful man on earth. Who are these two clowns with highly inflated sense of self importance? So obnoxious and extra.

858 Name: Sosorry : 2016-07-11 05:28 ID:P+RH8GGx

>>853 Apparently before the Rhode Island pics were published, about two days before, TS was seen walking near her home with a tall slender man. A young fan who uses a veterinarian in that town I think, saw TS and wanted to get a pic with her. But her Mom could hear TS speaking very forcefully with the very tall man. TS said that they were going to do this her way! The Mom was convinced that because of the harsh and scolding tone of TS's voice that the man had to be her assistant, and she told her daughter not to bother TS because she was talking business with her assistant. And then two days later, the mother and daughter saw the tall slender man kissing TS on the rocks in the pictures was TH! Crazy. Team Swift is in the driver's seat.
So we don't think that TS will return to Australia after Comic Con?

>>812 I disagree that asking TH whether "is she the one?" was ridiculous or out of place. They met each other parents, didn't they?
Actually, let me rephrase, TS travelled all the way to England EXCLUSIVELY to meet TH's mother, sisters, brothers-in-law, niece.
The question is only a logical consequence of their actions.

>>853 I can't see her moving to his place in N London: it is about 1500 square feet. It has 4 bedrooms but it would be pretty cosy with security. And where does the chef live? There are plenty of places in N London where you could house a team like that but they are seriously pricey - big houses on Avenue Road cost £30 million. Even TS might baulk at paying that much for a stalky girlfriend pad.

It seems this dinner was damage control for TH's faux pas during his impromptu press conference (if I've already written this my apology, things are standing to melt together)

>>863 Seeing that security detail...really? I mean do they really need THAT many? I get there are crazed fans that they would need protection from but that many guards? I don't know man...It's so excessive.

>>862 When you put it in that perspective, it does make sense to ask him about her being the one. Because I see these two as milking a rebound relationship, I keep forgetting that they're selling the Disney happily ever after to the media with marriage, wedded bliss, and babies and everything.

>>867 It's ridiculously OTT. I have represented clients who are worth a lot more than that, and who are pretty well known, and they have less security. Is she more at risk of kidnapping than Jessica Alba, who Forbes said this week was worth $350 million? JA appears to have no bodyguards: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-3234837/Kylie-Jenner-s-bodyguards-shove-Jessica-Alba-way-Opening-Ceremony-s-NYFW-show.html

If it's not kidnapping fears, then she has this ridiculous security for either crazy stalkers (who might try and break into her mansion at night but won't be after her at a restaurant) or for fans (a bunch of sobbing 12 year olds).

I wonder if it is the parents insisting on this. We have discussed that she is basically a 15 year old. They may perceive that too and insist on a huge security detail to protect her.

>>867 You asked if they really need that many in her security detail - no they don't, i point you again to the rollingstone article I posted yeseterday wthich explains how paranoid she is about security. What they didn't talk about were any threats she may get on any given day that they have to field, from the same kind of guy who showed up iin RI a couple of days ago to the kind of guy who killed that singer from The Voice in Orlando the day before the massacre.

870 Name: Whatsinaname : 2016-07-11 08:16 ID:w9Q74kZP

>>869 and to add to paranoid, she went on to say with regards to technology that she's afraid of what people can do with technology to plant mics or cameras, so that adds to her security paranoia.

>>868 You're right, it could all be her parents knowing their daughter is a childlike creature.

871 Name: Anonon : 2016-07-11 08:28 ID:vJ8cMe24

I would have appreciated some of her security for a couple of stalkery exes (and probably doubled up their usefulness as a rebound prop) in the past but I doubt she realises that googly eyed men, lurkers and gross men with mr octopus hands are par for the course of being a reasonably attractive female.
In the few interviews I have read she has alluded to neurotically extreme paranoia over her personal safety, most likely due to her sheltered upbringing and controlled environment. Any confidence she has exuded has been on stage or in front of camera.
It's no wonder she's latched onto an uncle- daddy figure who will hold her hand tightly so she doesn't get lost in the sweet shop. 'Cause she would so get lost without him.

872 Name: Anon : 2016-07-11 09:01 ID:S12tOCgA

It's that thing Clooney said about suffering from arrested development at the time you become uber famous. She was 15. The world she lives in must be a scary place for a 15 year old, who has the freedom of a 26 year old, not having mum and dad with her all the time.

http://pagesix.com/2016/07/10/calvin-harris-hurt-by-taylor-swifts-quick-rebound/

I meant to post this earlier and strangely the text has changed. Originally the source was John Newman.

'Looking back, some friends do feel like Taylor’s team manipulated and orchestrated part of [her] relationship [with Calvin] after seeing how public she is with her new guy. It makes sense,” a source said.
Critics of cloyingly smitten couple Swift and Hiddleston are calling their relationship a p.r. stunt after every smooch and hand-hold seems to be a photo op complete with fashion credits blasted out by brands.
“I wouldn’t put it past her. That’s what they do. It’s obvious,” the source close to Harris said of Swift’s highly publicized relationship.'

http://www.vice.com/en_uk/read/taylor-swift-tom-hiddleston-pr-relationships-promances

'Whatever the truth, when operating at as high a level as Taylor, to some degree, every move you make is calculated PR to some extent. Her personal life has felt as stage-managed as her professional life as far back as her squad and the constant welcoming to the stage of her last world tour. Every pyjama party, every 4th of July back garden BBQ, comes with a professional photographer providing photos for everyone on Instagram. Perhaps Taylor and Tom are truly a match made in thirsty, thirsty heaven. In which case, good luck to them and may the lord have mercy on the rest of us.'

Where are today's pap pics? Come on, Tayto, feed the beast. How will we know you're in love if we don't see you holding hands at least once in a 24-hour cycle?

And right here we have the very definition of mouthpiece. And the very definition of damage control.

http://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/tom-hiddleston-dodges-taylor-swift-question-during-run-w212569

Yes, yes, TH dodged those questions 'expertly.' You might have thought it was awkward. Most news/media outlets might have thought it was awkward, but it was actually 'expertly.' Thanks, Us, for selling us these wool eyeglasses.

I can imagine him running up to the penthouse after the interviews, all out of breath, and launching into word vomit: 'I fucked up, Tay, I talked to the reporters and I didn't say the right things and...can you fix it?' Then TayTay rolled her eyes and picked up the phone to her publicist.

879 Name: Whatsinaname : 2016-07-11 15:52 ID:w9Q74kZP

Did the MSM go through a cycle of 'here she goes again: Taylor's in another relationship!" articles when she started with Calvin, and Harry, and Jake, and ... John M.?

880 Name: Couch Potato : 2016-07-11 15:58 ID:Heaven

>>878 hahaha My scenario it's even worse. That journalist caught him leaving for a jog and returning from said jog. During jog time he didn't expertly make contact with HQ, bodyguard notwithstanding.

He probably thought he'd do just fine by himself "Good job Tommy, you were firm and clear. I told her I would only talk about my work and that I didn't know anything about that creature who glued herself to my hand for the past 3 weeks! Nobody will ever ask me about it again!"

Hold the presses! Did anyone else notice that Tom Hiddleston was featured in the exact same Nov 15 GQ magazine, where Taylor Swift was on the cover? His article was called, Meet Hank Williams the Fourth. Her article was called Taylor Swift Rules the World! I am not joking! It was where TH wore those beautiful suits strolling around London, that were slightly too small for his Night Manager frame. TS is wearing a bikini and long tank top on the cover. Maybe they've been circling each other for a bit? Or maybe their PR teams have?

Hopefully TH's radio interview wont be as awkward as his video interviews. Counting the days till they return for Comic Con, hopefully...

893 Name: NewAnon : 2016-07-11 23:16 ID:QrAHUnpX

>>892 "In that picture, Tom Hiddleston isn’t internally screaming so hard that his eyeballs are about to pop out of their sockets. No. Tom Hiddleston is trying to contain his boiling-over happiness while picturing Taylor Swift and himself pushing their baby daughter, Primm Rose (PR for short), in an old-timey baby buggy in front of the paps."

"But since this is Taylor Swift we’re gossiping about, I’m sure the source means that Taylor truly loves that Tom is a big tea drinker. When they play tea party with her Disney Princess Baby Dolls, Tom looks like he genuinely loves drinking her strawberry tea out of her tiny pink teacup. Only Taylor doesn’t know that Tom’s teacup is actually filled with Everclear and crushed Valium."

Hahahhahahaha!!! Oh Micheal thank you for putting into eloquent words what most of us are thinking.

894 Name: NewAnon : 2016-07-11 23:19 ID:QrAHUnpX

Interesting read on just how privileged and fortunate Taylor always has been. I didn't know her dad bought a big share in Big Machine and then she landed her contract with them http://www.salon.com/2015/05/22/taylor_swift_is_not_an_underdog_the_real_story_about_her_1_percent_upbringing_that_the_new_york_times_wont_tell_you/

>>891 Yep, it was brought up on tumblr when the Watch Hill pics first surfaced.

They've been circling ever since sometime around the ISTL filming. That September 2014, she followed him on her Twitter account (someone noticed this back then and commented; weeks later someone commented that she unfollowed him; allegedly he never followed her during that interval).

The official word is they met during the pre-MET gala dinner but who knows.

>>896 I'm hoping someone lets it slip how long Tom and Taylor have been in the making. The more I see this nonsense, the more I'm convinced this didn't start around MET but has been happening for way way longer.

899 Name: Anonon : 2016-07-12 00:51 ID:vJ8cMe24

tinfoil hat
That opiniondominion blog has closed up shop giving rise to the conspiracy theory that it was a team TH plant which has served its purpose.
Hiddlestoners on tumblr are scattering to the winds in droves. If this was an exercise to divide and conquer is has been a great success.

^^captcha 'cawtt'

>>896 >>898 I've never believed their timeline. The Met has to have been a staged relationship rollout to cover their cheating arses. I still can't work out why they are marketing themselves so aggressively though.

Primm Rose. Ha!
