Thread to talk about the actor Tom Hiddleston
>>199 Of course!
Miniature PhD girl!
>>198 I assume you mean if she goes to ComicCon and then returns to Oz because if she does that she is truly obsessed and unhinged.
I can't imagine willingly wanting to play a part in her augmented reality for love alone. Love is blind at times but it's not completely deaf and dumb as well.
>>196 Have a peruse around the smattering of fan forums left and you'll find all manner of predictions each as valid as the other since not one of us has an inside eye. My intuition is that both 1&2 play a part in his dedication to this role/ heartfelt romance.
just remember
http://65.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m05ngyTYn41r5a08so1_1280.jpg
"People assumed it was about me getting well-known and leaving her behind" says Hiddleston
>>198 Awkward and genuine I agree with - in the sense that it is a genuine relationship, and oh yes he absolutely feels awkward having to talk about it.
I get off the love boat when I start looking at the hugely calculating and manipulative context in which the genuine relationship sits. For example someone has had a conversation with him in which he was told, if you get an Emmy nomination, you have to use any resulting interview to mention the relationship and shut down the bad publicity (ha!). So although the relationship is real, and the sentiment expressed is too, the circumstances are yet again manufactured.
I also look askance at the crapulous comment that actually was made after a month of absolutely shoving it down our throats. He's acting as if the paps stole some shots of them kissing and they've been hiding on a tropical island ever since, while the rumours swirl unprompted around them, so he has to make some comment which has been dragged from him against his will. Own your shit, man.
So she wasn't at the movies: CH says on Friday morning he hasn't met her yet.
>>203 I have never seen this before. He sounds like a bit of an arsehole TBH. "It's just that I am very driven right now." Who says that about themselves with a straight face? Also "it's not you, it's me." Always the best way to break up with someone.
New still from SI: http://violetsaffron73.tumblr.com/post/147439428869/lolawashere-tom-hiddleston-and-brie-larson-are
Is this going to be amazing or shit? His expression says "I am Acting and also flexing my bicep so you can see how much I've been working out recently."
>>207 I find these stills as confusing as his relationship. I know they had giant skull props so why does it look so fake?
Ridiculous poses and expressions.
Filter.
Bad costume design. This is meant to be set in the late 60s/early 70s but Brie Larson is wearing a costume straight out of Indiana Jones and the 1930s (I guess deliberately intended to evoke those movies). Photojournalists in the Vietnam War all wore flares: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2154400/Napalm-Girl-photographer-Nick-Ut-releases-work-Vietnam-war.html
>>205 Thank you for finding this, because I read that the guy who tweeted about Ts being at the cinema, later retracted saying he wasn't at the cinema but home. Plus the timeline didn't fit.
And if TH had just got home with her from the cinema, would he really say "I don't know who I'm bringing to the Emmy Awards?" to her face?
Now, why would TS miss out on a cinema offered by Hemsworth just to go shopping with her bodyguards? Next Tuesday is Elsa Patacky birthday, let's see if there's a party.
>>206 This one was interesting, because it appeared on the DM the day after Susannah went public with her new, and present, bf (who she only met at the beginning of February that year). On San Valentina that year TH tweeted a song of a day thing "Be My Baby" and then added "I'm not gonna say who xxx" (eyeroll).
I think they were on a break and he was making a last attempt to convince SF to stay with him. Iirc, at the time both TH and SF were represented by the same PR agency, so this little interview was probably coordinated.
>>209 It's a common problem of these blockbusters set in times too ancient to appeal to the millenials, ergo the modernized outifts, but who also needs to look realistic for the adults who might remember the world 50 years ago. Basically a mess, like TNM.
Did someone post the fuller version of this? Or a screencap of the article (possibly I did)? Anyhow here it is again.
Should we all play along? From this point on...until the end, the bitter, ash covered end.
Captcha: shizeable
>>214 Yes please! Hahaha.
BTW thanks for the Michael K wake up call. Poor MK - I think he is starting to sound a little jaded, like Hunter S Thompson after Henry Kissinger got appointed.
Sigh. We'll be seeing more and more blinds like this now I'm assuming http://www.crazydaysandnights.net/2016/07/blind-item-1-1371.html
>>210 So the radio interview that Chris and Tom made where he says he hasn't met her and everyone is saying that proves TS did not come to the GB screening? The interview was pre-taped on Thursday before the movie, and people at the cinema tweeted that she was there. Someone on tumblr wrote a formal timeline but that's the gist of it.
>>218 Daily Fail reporting again. I did check and they specifically said they spoke within him on Friday morning. Can't get anything right.
>>217 I say go for it. Hit that one out of the park, Tayto. Get engaged RIGHT before the Emmy RC and then walk it together.
Give no thought to how Emmy bosses, voters, fellow actors, producers, etc will seeeeeeeth at your antics and sad grab for attention. Because the Emmy's should be about two people 'in lurve' and not about....what is it....the...the...the WORK.
It would be just another brilliant move in a series of brilliant moves for these two.
>>218 >>219 Is this maybe a matter of when it aired over in this hemisphere?
From what I understand 1 person tweeted that she was there. This same person said that he himself wasn't there, his friends were messaging him and his friends never actually saw her. He also said that CH was drunk during the outing. This person is also a massive TS fan.
That being said, I don't know why she wouldn't have gone along. And held his hand throughout the entire movie.
Whiplash : first this Engagement story - http://www.celebuzz.com/2016-07-13/tom-hiddleston-propose-taylor-swift-soon/
then this denial story : http://www.gossipcop.com/tom-hiddleston-proposing-taylor-swift-engaged/
Same https://twitter
.com/rilaws/status/751139933767790592
This from the sarcastic VF film/TV critic who declared TH gay a few days ago.
>>222 The celebuzz story is just off the tails of the Us story. It's not really an 'they're engaged story.' And it's from July 13, the same date as the GC post denying the Us story which was releases, I think, a day earlier.
>>224 right not 'they're engaged' but proposal plans.
Where and when would you need 11 bodyguards? Well, ET just reported that's what the #SOHAPPY couple needed to get into the theatre last night to see GB.
'Everything in the Swift universe is shrouded in confusion these days, as observers wonder about her obsessively paparazzi-documented relationship with Hiddleston. By now, many assume it’s a PR stunt or performance art. It wasn’t helped by Hiddleston’s awkward interview with the Hollywood Reporter on Thursday, as he denied their relationship was for publicity, and made sure to use his famous girlfriend’s first and last name so everyone would know who he was talking about: “The truth is that Taylor Swift and I are together, and we’re very happy.”'
>>226 The 11 bodyguards rumor originates from the now proven semi- bogus tweets by the Swiftie cinema employee who has surely lost his job by now.
"There are certain inevitable aspects of online life that are guaranteed to stress an individual out, to cause an elevated heart rate and tiny beads of sweat to appear above the upper lip. For me, they are: any post with more than two hashtags, the sight of someone else’s phone teeming with bright red, unread texts and emails, and primarily, happy photos of celebrity couples. If one half of that celebrity couple is Taylor Swift, multiply the cringe factor by about four.
Taylor Swift has survived, in different ways, Kanye West and John Mayer; she is made of very strong stuff. She doesn’t care about anyone’s judgment of her life choices or of her eagerness to share said life choices with millions of followers. She’ll be fine. But when I see those well-curated and disseminated photos of Tom Hiddleston on Instagram and elsewhere, merrily partying on Taylor Swift’s water slide, I just wonder how much more awkward they’ll seem in a few months — or whether they’ll even still exist at all."
>>227 Nice picture of TH.
I read the tweets before they were deleted, guess i missed the 11 (thought it said 5 or 6)
To ridiculous not to share. This must be the reason she bought her own plane!
“I know that my friend who works for airport security said one time Taylor Swift tried to bring fucking candles onto her flight, like they asked ‘do you intend to light these’ and she was like 'um yeah,’ and when they said she couldn’t light the candles and had to not have them on a carryon she threw a fit.” - Anonymous
>>230 I had to read that twice. She tried on a commercial flight? How old was she?
In case anyone still cares about what he does for a living, he actually talked about Thor3, saying even less interesting things than usual. Amazing

Tayto Park
@taytopark
Hi @taylorswift13, if yourself & Tom #TayTo ever fancy having the ride on our #CuChulainnCoaster, just let us know! 😉
Apologies for the Daily Fail link - but this latest suggest they met in February, but has no detail about how and when:
>>243 I'm all ears for a cheating scandal- it seems the most likely explanation at this point, but February? He was filming in Oz, did a quick trip to Berlin, then filming in Vietnam. I have no interest in looking up her movements but I'd be truly amazed if their paths intersected.
I love the use of the word 'vacated'; she didn't cheat, she od'd on valium, wafted out of the building and wrapped her vapour around TH.
C'mon friends of Calvin, dish up the scandal we all deserve after the hand holding pda tour and #SOHAPPY
Goes back to meditating on >>239
>>244 Yeah same here. It seems highly unlikely. The truth will out at some point.
Katie Kloss and Karlie Kloss don't seem to be related.
If you go to kt_kloss on instagram, supermodel Karlie does not appear to be related to Katie Kloss, stunt woman/model from the skull island wrap party pics. Super model Karlie's sisters are Kristine, Kimberly and Kariann, and she has no brothers. By contrast, stunt woman/model Katie Kloss appears to also have a brother in a family surfing snap on her instagram. There are also many pics of Karlie and her sisters on E! news website and one from Teen Vogue on google, and Katie Kloss does not match their pics.
My head is spinning. CH seems to be going for blood in destroying TS's character. This is just an ugly situation for everyone involved. No pics of TS in days, which is good b/c she's a bit overexposed right now. Will the couple will be over by early fall, or are we changing our minds?
>>244 I can't see them meeting in February. I think they met in May and she liked what she saw and started up with him before she saw Calvin off (note the DM says they met in Feb but got together in May).
That is still scandal enough for her to want to cover up with the lightning roll out. In a way it is worse because she meets TH on 2 May and starts shagging him more or less straight away. Not much time for "we became friends and texted a lot and gradually realised we were one another's soul mate." Just good old fashioned saw something new and traded up immediately.
This is interesting. As I mentioned previously, this is one of the most followed tumblr blogs (at least since Torrilla was deleted). If she says nobody is posting or reblogging, then she is in a position to know. Other people I follow are moaning that they are losing followers hand over fist. Still others are suddenly posting Sebastian Stan 24/7 and little to no TH (why? definitely not my second choice, but anyway!).
This whole thing seems at a stroke to have killed TH as tumblr's boyfriend. I do hope this was part of the plan.
In the compound. Before the pics in the ocean were taken (see quality of temporary tattoo). Notably not wearing the white t shirt:
Here's a clip making the rounds of TS leaving AW's pre-MET gala dinner. She's walked out to her SUV first. TH and IE are essentially walking just beyond it.
She: Nice to meet you.
Idris: see you my love
She: bye
Tom: bye (waves hand)
Someone else with a higher voice: see you in the stars
Then another couple is escorted out (looks like James Corden and his wife).
http://www.gossipcop.com/taylor-swift-team-damage-control-calvin-harris-rant-tom-hiddleston/
What a load of 💩
>>250 That video has being doing the rounds since this whole thing started. I wouldn't cite anything these two do or say in front of paps as gospel truth- there's more than enough evidence they tweak their own storyline publicly.
>>248 There's been a noticeable drop in interest all round the board aside from Swiftie connected blogs. I guess losing his 2.5m followers is nothing compared to gaining 80m Swifties, becoming a household name worldwide and maintaining front page headlines for a month.
If I were him I would be terrified of ComicCon. Will the old fans turn up and boo him or will the new adoring fans drown them out? If TS loves him she will plant the audience like an opening night.
We are due for another pap stroll!
For those looking for a Hiddles 'out', here's some more visual inspiration:

If that doesn't leave you running for the hills screaming, have a read through the comments on this gem:
https://www.instagram.com/p/BH4oWBDhkFB/
"She controls the media"
https://www.instagram.com/p/BH61dv8g3ZZ/
>>251 It's particularly a load of 💩 if, as the Swifty apologists on tumblr claim, GC has a direct line to Swift's publicist. Which means that all the articles in GC are themselves a form of damage control.
>>248 I get it. He lost everything that made him endearing and unique. Even if this stunt were to end I certainly not going back.
If this was part of the plan, it was a shitty plan. Swifties don't have the age to support his work in films. And since his theatre cred went down the drain, he can kiss goodbye to selling out tickets in a whiff.
>>251 Swifties have to buy tickets the same as everyone else and since it's a WarnerBros panel, they'll have plenty of competition form comic nerds. If TS is going to be with him at SDCC, that might make people snap for good.
You guys might have seen this at TOD, a gif of Nicholas Hoult saying that he did (the film Equals) as a tribute to Tayto.
The gif didn't include the question so I found the original video.
The question at minute 3.30 was: "What is it like for you guys when you watch the film in its completed form, in its entirety later on, after working on it"
His answer is here https://youtu.be/NissaDraecM?t=4m39s
I'm reading at the TOD that the Swifties claim Levi said TH will attend NerdHQ. Aside from the fact that a free Q&A right now would be hilarious, NerdHQ has already announced its program.
http://sdccblog.com/2016/07/nerd-hq-announces-2016-conversations-for-a-cause/
The only slot I see for a possible TH appearance would be on Thursday for the Zachary Levi & Friends.
Ouch! Bill Maher shading Tayto.

'The Shake It Off singer is allegedly hoping to 'boost' their power couple status in a tell-all chat with Ellen DeGeneres'
I can't tell you all how much i want this to be true. This would be AMAZING
>>259,260 I loved Hoult's ironic poke. Needless to say, the Swifties thought it was a compliment.
>>261 Yikes! Please let it be true, so he'll never be able to go back to the UK.
>>263 If it does eventuate I insist we all watch it live and have a shot each time they say #HAPPY
It appears the Swifties are able to maintain such a high level of optimism due to a complete lack of irony and critical analysis, much like Trump supporters.
>>264 We could live watch then take shots then comment on here as we go. Board anarchy!
Has Ellen inherited Oprah's sofa? Will TH jump on it to show us how much he's in love?
Seriously, whoever thought this up needs taking aside. The more they say about this the worse it will get.
>>264 We might end up drunk within the first minute.
hahahaha, isn't that the truth!
"A romantic night in for two? Tom Hiddleston is every inch the doting boyfriend as he steps out to grab some takeaway and a bottle of wine for girlfriend Taylor Swift"
Btw, one of those bottle is San Pellegrino. I'll never understand the fixation this rich celebs have for branded water, nobody in their right mind can possibly believe that a spring can produce all the water for all the bottles being sold around the world.
I also think in one of the photos he was actually thinking "Damn, I can't remove my eyeglasses with my hands busy"
Somehow the Fail have managed to squeeze an article out of TH picking up take-away.
The first question that comes to mind is... why is he picking it up himself? They are in the penthouse of a luxury hotel! He does look like he needed a break to have a good talk to himself.
>>265 I am all in for co-ordinated board anarchy. I'm even prepared to get drunk before 11am if necessary
Is he... is he talking to the takeaway bag?
>>271 Maybe he reached the point where even a takeaway bag is a more interesting conversationalist than Taylor Swift (let's use her full name like he does)
My theory is true. She really is holed up in that hotel 24/7 and only emerges for shopping trips. If she has sent him out for takeaway they must be sick of room service, and that must be because she never leaves the hotel. She's on the Gold Coast having a holiday and she sits in a suite all day. What a sad life.
I can't help comparing this to what looked like a lot of fun doing SI. Going out and about, being photographed by the odd fan, yes, but really enjoying life and doing cool activities. Now: run with bodyguard and pick up takeaway.
>>274 Indeed. And the reason for it is her obsession with PR and her security paranoia.
>>273 >>274 I agree, she is Rapunzeling the shit outta that penthouse and obviously driving him so mad he's unnecessarily volunteering to pick up takeaway so he can talk to the paper bag instead of TS. Even if she has eaten her way through their menu and the hotel restaurants, they have staff on hand to pick up their orders.
What a sad comparison to SI antics (which were ironically based on TSs' squad antics).
I'm starting to think he will try to escort her back home on the way to ComicCon. She will fight it all the way though.
Morning! I shrugged off church this morning - baby too tired (best excuse in the world).
Is he walking with/talking to the guy in the grey top and beanie? Is that the bodyguard/guard we've seen him with a few times? Maybe not or he'd help a dude out!
It is sad if they're holed up inside a hotel. I was once sequestered for two weeks during a trial - it wasn't mine, I was on the jury! Nice room, room service per diem, HBO, etc. But it was terrible. It's so isolating. We weren't allowed to watch news programs or check the Internet so there was a strange disconnect as well. Maybe they're getting out more and we just don't see it because they're not calling the paps! And we KNOW they're checking the Internet!
>>277 Oopsie. Meant to say trainer. Is that the trainer? (This no caffeine thing is kicking my ass hard. They say that having a glass of cold water in the morning is just as invigorating as having tea or coffee - they are LIARS!)
>>276 I don't know how long he'll be in SD at CC, but I'm getting the sneaking suspicion that she's going to stay put in Oz while he flies out and returns. If she's happy to stay up in the room for days at a time (writing music? writing positive comments on the DM articles? shouting at her PR people over the phone?) then why wouldn't she be happy to continue?
I know he got himself into this shit, but I did feel sorry for him when I saw a pic Torrilla posted - he is standing looking lost surrounded by 4 or 5 people, each of whom is taking a picture of him on their phone, as if he is an animal in the zoo.
I think he will want her gone when he goes to ComicCon. I don't think she's going to want to go, though. We'll see who wins that battle of wits.
Where is Olly?
>>279 Again, your kind heart shines out. I want a Attenborough voiceover: 'Here we have the celeb bf gathering food for his mate.'
While my husband fulfills Sunday obligations for three, I've been going over the ONTD threads. They're almost as hi-larry as Dlisted. One link to a vid of TS and Stevie Nicks caught my attention. The comment said that Nicks doesn't allow autotune to be used during her gigs (don't know if that's true) so TS had to perform without it. It's ear-opening. How many others use autotune to sound good? Because I always thought TS had a very good voice. Not Adele, but good.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TUzjN38g6sw
I then read some comments. Swallow your beverage before reading this one: "What you haters don't realize is that there was a tragedy right before this show that affected Swift's performance. Benny, the tour's Auto-Tune machine, hung himself the afternoon of the show. Witness' described him as severely overworked from not only the tour but studio recording. He left no note, but was described as being depressed since working with Swift. Apparently, he was able to wrap his AC cord around the clothes bar in the closet and hang himself. Another Auto-Tune machine was hired but didn't make the show in time. RIP Benny, you will be missed..."
Is it wrong to have skipped church and to tear down a fellow woman? And on the day of rest?
>>281 Did you listen to the link I posted of her singing live at the VMAs isolated from the backing track? Painful.
I am having a day of feeling sorry for Tom. I think it is the weather here (very hot and clammy - it is enervating my inner Sunday bitch into a puddle of gloom). Am I overanalysing here or does he look slightly lost and sad in these pics? He is dating a super rich famous pretty person, and this is his life - being sent out for takeout and photographed by shameless tourists.
Nooooooo. Sad face.
They aren't going on Ellen. And this debunking by GC is from "Swift's rep" so it is probably true. http://www.gossipcop.com/taylor-swift-tom-hiddleston-ellen-degeneres-interview/
>>282 I don't think he looks lost, but I'm also thinking that he should be used to this sort of thing by now; he's had it for the past month. Still it must be strange, even given his previous fame.
>>283 You can tell they've turned that hotel suite into PRHQ. Every article, every comment, every snake emoji is being scrutinized and they are responding to it. What a life.
>>274 morning sickness does that to you. Apparently.
>>284 Here is the footage of the takeout run! I think beany hat man is the bodyguard. What a life, taking a security guard to get takeaway.
http://hiddleswifts.tumblr.com/post/147547313792/tom-grabbing-takeout-and-being-congratulated-on
>>285 Hahahaha!!
Why is Taylor being so mean to Calvn when she's pregnant with his child?
An unintended gem from that Gossip Cop article:
“A so-called “source” is quoted as saying in the Mirror, which picked up its story from the Daily Star, “*The simple truth is that Taylor is in love* and, as well as showing off her new man to her fans, she feels a friendly interviewer like Ellen could really help boost their standing as as power couple, as well as Tom’s Hollywood career.” But the story is entirely untrue."
For once what the photos suggested was right, pink-tshirt girl was approaching him.
>>286 Yep bodyguard, I thought strange he would be allowed to go out alone. I'm afraid that the video also confirms that he doesn't look lost at all, which all in all would be difficult to believe, he has just said he is very happy with Taylor, Taylor Swift!
>>281 hahahaha she sings as off key as Audrey! No wonder her parents had to buy her a record company.
>>289 Yes. Not looking lost but very definitely not stopping for the fan encounters, even with the little kid. He said "thanks man" to the "Emmy congrats" and sailed on by. Never looked back. He's over us. All of us.
>>291 Oh yeah. Maybe that's why he was jostling with bottles and paper bags, the perfect excuse to refuse contact.
I think that's the trainer. I'm not going to compare with previous pics, but he's not wearing an earpiece. Her bodyguards always wear earpieces. Even the one that took her shopping - he was alone - wore an earpiece.
I saw on another site that he was seen having breakfast with the trainer...on a balcony. I dismissed it as rubbish but maybe trainer is his non-TS companion. When she's writing or sleeping or down-arrowing nasty comments on DM, he hangs with the trainer.
>>293 He has always hung out with few friends. He spent every waking hour with Olly until he got back from the Publicity Tour of Doom. He seems to latch onto A Bloke and then hang out with him. He was third wheeling Olly and that ghastly assistant to Vogt-Roberts for most of his time in Vietnam and Oz.
What happened to Olly by the way? Last seen handing over the keys to the car before MamaPapstroll, so still on the payroll. Does the man do any actual work any more.
>>293 Breakfast with the trainer...Chances are those paper bags were also for dinner with the trainer. Are we sure TayTo are sharing the same bedroom?
>>294 Taking a well deserved vacation from buying coffee, underwear and condoms for his charge, I hope. Glad he doesn't have to deal with this PR nightmare of the moment.
Captcha proclaims 'he seen' as in nobody knows the trouble....
>>295 Oh no, those paper bags are for their heads, for their next outing. Tay is going to get all crafty on those bags and bejazzle the shit out of hers then realise they have to matchy match so she'll turn TH into a rhinestone cowboy
https://www.instagram.com/p/BH-f4i5AHTj
Seems he's being a little schizophrenic in regards to moods. Paps: not happy. No paps: happy. Or TS fan: no pic. TH fan: pics and smiles.
What?
This is the funniest thing I have seen for a few days. Luke retweets the GC article denying an Ellen interview and the replies are hilarious:
