Thread to talk about the actor Tom Hiddleston
>>337,339 I'm glad you two found her so at least someone here got the chance to see the evidence when someone else here will say that they know it's real.
That being said it sounds so ridiculous. As someone who saw Missthing and beanup happen in real time, this phd girl sounds is very LOL. I don't even get why people are so fixated on it, if true is pathetic, it just proves even more how much of a manipulative, famewhore wimp TH is.
>>343 Nah, first Frenchy wouldn't have kept it quiet, at all! Second Frenchy's bd is in September.
I swear we might have reached a point where there are more gossip tumblr blogs than fan, do you guys know of this one?
http://sugarteachatter.tumblr.com/post/148261424502/i-have-talked-to-studio-gal-i-know-some-of-you
>>348 Right? But I think the reason some of them are losing it over this PhD story is because now they can't dump the entirety of the blame on Taylor for being tempting poor naive Tom into her trap. No more excuses of "well he was just blinded by his need for fame and he's had three flops in a row" blah blah, all apologist excuses. Or like you said, it's just giving the pissed off fans even more riled up and angry, and they're all dying to see him suffer now. Both him and Taylor lol
>>353 I read that one too. All of these tea/ gossip blogs are attracting more fanfic than substantial rumors. Studio Gal sounds like it has merit but then again I don't know if a Marvel employee would risk spilling dirt like that on a tumblr during a time when Tom is getting so much publicity. It could be one of the disgruntled Australian employees who got laid off but Studio Gal is insistent she's in LA. Her info is something someone can work out based on intelligent reasoning though. Weren't some of us reaching the same conclusions when we heard of the NYC sighting and saw the LA agent pics?
>>353 I think you're right. Haven't really been following the last few days because I kind of feel sick of it all. This relationship sham isn't ending any time soon and the cycle of planted articles followed by pap strolls has become incredibly tiresome.
Even weirder though is this whole TPG thing. It's actually quite twisted and sinister. I can't believe a word of it but also quite disturbed that there are so many people getting themselves worked up about it and slating Tom as this evil villain. It's strange lengths to go to to manipulate and deceive people, for what reason?
I still have a Tumblr profile (pretty easy to find I think based around my name/location) but have unfollowed so many blogs now, mainly just reblogging the odd vintage Hollywood or contemporary film stuff. The TH tag is a mess or just an outright freakshow.
"A-listers Mark Ruffalo, Cate Blanchett and Taylor Swift’s beau Tom Hiddleston have been in the city as filming continues."
http://www.goldcoastbulletin.com.au/entertainment/thors-fictional-realm-asgard-has-taken-shape-at-movie-world-studios/news-story/f7425fa6c06c4d5741cad825e50b4a9f
He lost the right to have a name.
"Workers at Gold Coast’s Village Roadshow Studios fume at cuts from Thor: Ragnarok starring Chris Hemsworth"
"The cuts fuelled rumours the production would use more computer-generated backgrounds rather than real sets."
>>354 I think Marvel does pay for transportation of their actors and a plus one, which would explain why they flew commercial on their way to OZ. This also tells me that when they flew to SDCC in a private jet TS paid for it. And it also tells me that TS probably didn't like the houses Marvel made available for its actors and that's why TayTo stayed at a hotel.
>>355 If it's false people are insisting on it to shade TH even more? At this point it would just confirm people's worst scenarios. If it's true, it just adds to the pile. I truly don't see what difference does it make. Maybe because it proves that TayTo is a PR contractual thing? We all thought that was the case from day 1. I'm bemused.
This is what I hate the most about this spilling tea, they do the deed but then they don't want to deal with the consequences.
http://theopdo.tumblr.com/post/148291437404/more-i-have-received-a-few-messages-about-the
I haven't seen much chatter about theopdo's story - any really outside the anons she has published. Maybe I am following the wrong (or right!) tumblrs.
When, oh when, is he to return to Australia? This is the most leisurely shooting schedule ever. Either it is way behind and is going to go hugely over budget like Heaven's Gate; or TH has a minuscule part. If he is filming from now(ish) till end October he could still have a reasonably substantial part I suppose.
>>360 I think never. He's just going to skype his part in. Or they'll make a cgi Loki in the same way they de-bulged him in the first movie. Maybe it will be voice work only and Loki will always be speaking off camera randomly in another room: 'Why is loki always in the kitchen or bathroom?' They'll explain it away by saying Loki has IBS. 😰💩 That's Loki sweating because he needs to take a poo.
>>357 I'd fume too. I'm sure members of the govt might be fuming with all the tax breaks and incentives that were given to the production. I know we talked about this last year when news of filming in Oz broke. The boat had been pushed out to get the production to film there.
>>361 I suppose we should have known because Thor 2 ended with him sitting in the throne.
>>362 Yeah they did, actually I seem to remember the money given to marvel was cut from fund destined to a book council or art department.
The person behind TNS Twitter account is crazy but this is actually funny:
https://twitter
.com/taylorsnextsong/status/760118658395930624
Luke Windsor started following publicist Gary Mantoosh. Do you think he's Tom's new publicist in the US?
>>367 I think Gary and Luke met at SDCC and networked. I don't think he is Tom's US publicist. He could be but I don't think BWR has signed up Tom...
>>353 >>354 I saw the Studio Gal posts, and while I'm hesitant to believe anonymous sources on tumblr, I did find her story believable. But, like NewAnon said, much of what she divulged can be worked out based on the evidence available, which is why it seems like it could be true. Still, I'm wary.
>>359 I definitely found the right girl, all the screenshots of her CV lined up. I'm one of the people who messaged TOD and sugarteachatter last night to tell them it was a catfishing scam, told them about Michelle and a couple other incidents that followed the same pattern. Oh well, hopefully everyone will let it go now before it spirals into a Town Bike mess.
>>363 Badum, tshhhhh!
TS was also in LA yesterday, here are her photos from the gym
http://taylorswiftandtomhiddleston.tumblr.com/post/148302431708/going-to-the-gym-separately-7312016
>>370 Kind of pathetic that it's noteworthy whenever they go places "separately."
>>369 Yes it is, gym and dinner, dinner and gym. But it's not like there's much about him to talk about is there?
>>350 I enlarged the pic of the Church Key dinner outing, and that is not TS.
>>373 !!! Can you post the enlarged photo? The image board is here: http://4-ch.net/img/
>>373 Really? It looks like her...a lot. I do believe the story and it's embellishments were a plant though. Deliberately done so that it looks "realistic" because no one is buying their papped date nights.
They're trying to inject realism now but the whole thing is past its sell by date. No one is going to believe anything now.
>>377 That was the first thing I noticed too. That's why she's not hiding her face this time. She only hides her face from the paps when she's not wearing makeup.
A little amuse-bouche (or purgative, depending on one's perspective): http://hollywoodlife.com/2016/08/01/taylor-swift-music-tom-hiddleston-new-songs-relationship/
Somehow I doubt that Gossip Cop will rush into print to rubbish this one, irrespective of the disparaging views that they have expressed of HL.
"We've previously debunked false stories put about by Hollywood Life. Once again, we can refute the claim that Tom has been a muse to Taylor. Impeccable sources close to the couple tell us that Taylor doesn't need Tom as a muse because she doesn't write any of her own material."
http://hollywoodlife.com/2016/08/01/tom-hiddleston-taylor-swift-having-kids-together-mom-approves/
'the actor who plays Loki has a mom who is very excited to become a grandmother one day — and she wouldn’t mind if her grandkids came from Taylor.'
Ha and eww who writes this shit "came from Taylor"..
I just read on tumblr that the man with the beard at the table in the foreground of the photo with Taylor at Church Key is Mark Romanek, who directed Shake It Off. I compared photos and I think it is him.
Wouldn't it be interesting if their one non-papped "please, no photos" dinner was with a music video director? Is it time to whip out the tin foil again?
>>382 Or, alternative theory, the story was a plant and Tom wasn't even there.
TODDY has deleted her blog. Again.
More gym pics from today on Torrilla's weibo.
In case anyone is wondering, the gym Tom has been attending is the Fitness Factory on La Peer Drive in West Hollywood. It's a 5 minute drive or 15 minute walk from the Four Seasons.
>>387 Damn we can't see which car he's coming and going to the gym in. If it's her mom's SUV or a rental. Taylor is back to hiding her face again.
>>378>>381 Yeah I don't understand why she wears makeup to the gym but then I realized she wears makeup for the pap pics. God knows how she looks without it.
>>384 Does this mean she's flying back to Oz with him? Because she controls everything and is the boss of him. Ugh. If they do I hope they do extremely ridiculous pap walks and the media and public make a ridiculous mockery out of them.
Wasn't he an Empire favorite? This time they didn't even bother mentioning him. Not by his real name or Taylor Swift's new pet/ beau/ boyfriend/ willing sacrifice.
http://www.empireonline.com/movies/thor-ragnarok/thor-ragnarok-new-behind-scenes-glimpses/
>>388 If I was a famous person who was going to be papped going to the gym, I'd make sure any blemishes were covered. That's it. If I had problem skin I'd maybe wear foundation. This whole full face of makeup with contouring and pink lipstick to go work out is just too much.
I don't think I've seen this here: https://www.buzzfeed.com/elliewoodward/something-weird-is-going-on-with-hiddleswift-since-the-kimye?bftw&utm_term=.ulA8rQXzW#.bhD8JED50
>>392 And now add this tabloid cover to the mix http://www.lipstickalley.com/showthread.php/1053826-Tom-Hiddleston-Thread-Part-9?p=27535597&viewfull=1#post27535597
We'll probably be seeing more tabloid headlines of Tom using Taylor for money. They'd been hinting at this ending for this narrative from the Rome. He's gonna end up as the guy who steals your woman and then uses her funds for himself. My god, he's Thomas Sharpe but without the incest and murder.
>>393 '...but without the incest and murder.' Small blessings in this mess.
EO's next project. Give it a read...interesting intersection.
>>396 Everyone keeps saying that like it's a good thing...
>>398 Ah the themes of public image versus reality. Maybe EO will give Tom a call to ask if she can talk to him and Taylor Swift about the circus of celebrity and the skewed picture it presents and how that affects their day to day reality.
>>394 They hatched the plan together to ensnare the rich blonde woman (who's also a writer) to secure higher celebrity standing and fame. So...I guess Luke is Lucille.
>>396>>399 Well they do say Hollywood is incestuous with how everyone ends up sharing bedfellows.
A miracle! He is leaving via LAX (se Torrilla) and he appears to be A.L.O.N.E.
>>401 Don't get too excited, there's no way his wardrobe could fill those enormous suitcases, she's obviously hiding in one of them
Oh look, the humble attitude is back, he is pushing his own suitcases and he is not flying on a private jet! This can only mean the flight is paid by Marvel. So he is probably alone. No way TS flies with the common people again! But she might join him later on.
"Is Hiddleswift on the rocks? Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston appear to cool public romance"
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/music/news/is-hiddleswift-on-the-rocks-taylor-swift-and-tom-hiddleston-appe/
>>404 Some of that article is so bad. It says that the pics of their steakhouse date emerged nearly a week after the steakhouse date. That was last Wednesday and we saw the pics soon after. they haven't just emerged the last day or so.
Still, papped 28 times together before the Kimye bomb and once afterwards...
>>401 I bet they had a really heartfelt good-bye. They probably read each other poetry, gazed into one another's eyes, took some selfies, discussed Descartes (her pronunciation: Des-car-tays) and summoned the paps to a nearby Chili's but then didn't show up...those pranksters!
>>405 I didn't read the article but 28 times. Really? I'd like a breakdown of obviously professional pap shots from someone who knows. Can we think of even one 'rogue' pap shot? Or of one where they're not holding hands?
>>407 That number comes from an unacknowledged underlying buzzfeed article and I have a feeling it includes one or two miscounts (for example them arriving at the romantic beach - red hairband day - and them being photographed strolling on that beach, which I'd call one, no two). I might do a little analysis when i can be bothered.
This is from The Nerdist. TH and GDT did this panel last year...so long ago. Pre-THEO, Pre-Tayto.
They're talking about Sherlock and who might play Sherlock's brother:
Like we said above, our money’s on Taylor Swift‘s current boytoy Tom Hiddleston. In our own ‘sclusive clip, Lutes brought the rumor to the panel, asking, “If you could have Tom Hiddleston on Sherlock… would you?” And get this! We didn’t get a no! Instead we got a, “Who says we haven’t?” This whole post has been an emotional rollercoaster and Gatiss just isn’t helping (even if he did say he’s messing with us after. Riiiight).
http://nerdist.com/could-tom-hiddleston-play-sherlocks-third-brother/
>>409 Cue this lovely imagine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vdVt-c6ctNI
>>407 the number of times mentioned is why I posted it. Even if wrong by a few, organizing so many papstrolls in such a short time plus the random pap photos is really something.
>>402 I think she made him carry an extra empty suitcase just so they could write headlines like this:
"Is It Over? Tom Hiddleston Leaves Taylor Swift's L.A. Home With Several Packed Bags — See His Sad Pics"
>>413 I am just getting a link to the front page. Can't find the article! Can you repost? I am dying to read this one as it sounds hilarious!
>>412 I've read a few of Paglia's books. She's a fierce feminist, often traveling far beyond my own feminist borders. But like all philosophers - and I do consider her such - she has a way of finding that nugget of truth hidden beneath society's overly-manufactured dung heap. Her writings on Princess Diana were eye-opening for me.
>>414 You need to scroll through the pics. The 'article' is really just the captions under the photos - it is Star mag!!
>>416 I can't even see the pic n the front page though! Maybe it's because I'm on mobile.
>>414 >>418 Maybe try the link in this tweet?
https://twitter . com/star_news/status/760501796297068544
>>419 Still not working. Maybe it's only for US readers.
I saw a very disturbing tweet of someone menacing Tom.
People are reporting it:
https://twitter
.com/brandopls/status/760528669693603841
>>415 I remember her Diana writings,Anon. I just found a Salon article on the day of Diana's death - http://www.salon.com/1997/08/31/paglia_15/ - referring to her New Republic article about the Princess, which I can't find online. It was very interesting- I think it was one of the first times that I read about a broad narrative being played out regarding a person's very public private life (if that makes sense).
>>421 This is the second time this week someone has tweeted that level of vitriol toward him / his family. The first one resulted in their account being pulled.
>>421 They were threatening Tom before TayTo ever happened. Wow. I went ahead and reported them.
Here are the captions beneath the pics which are just those from other sites:
Tom Hiddleston and Taylor Swift went overboard debuting their new relationship in the first three weeks — 24 times in front of the cameras — but in the last two weeks, it's been rare to see the pair together. Tom was spotted leaving LAX airport with several packed bags on August 1 after his stay with Taylor at her L.A. residence. During his recent trips, he's taken his 26-year-old girlfriend with him, so him traveling alone this time may cause fans to raise their eyebrows since she's not on tour anymore. Some reports began to surface that the pair have already broken up — despite rushing into things too fast, like meeting each other's parents that first month together. The breakup shocker would come right on the heels of Tom trying to get in with the brand Armani — right after Taylor's ex, Calvin Harris, quit working with the brand — but an insider told The Telegraph that Armani doesn't want their brand name connected to his relationship with Taylor. "Obviously with Tom now being Taylor's other half and the Calvin past deal, it would generate huge media coverage and headlines. But Armani see themselves as classier than that and think that a rising sports start may suit their current needs better," a source told the publication. "Armani would hate to be seen as getting PR for their brand by riding on Taylor Swift's coat tails, so Tom will not get the job," added the insider. Their whirlwind romance coming to an end would especially be bad timing for Taylor, who's suffered a load of heat for Kanye West and Kim Kardashian exposing a phone call that caught the pop star in a lie.
Sorry, that last one was me, forgetting to add my name.
>>425 Thank you! I wanted actual pictures of Tom slinking away from Pussycat Towers, possibly holding a laundry bag containing his one spare pair of pants. Sadly it sounds like it was the airport pics again.
I have no life so I made this list. These are all the sightings. All involve both TH and TS and all were pap encounters unless it says otherwise (where I say "candid" I mean taken by a fan on a cameraphone).
I mined the data; others can analyse. I think, though I haven't counted very precisely, that there were maybe 21 or 22 pap encounters with both of them before KK dropped her bombshell. Afterwards, 2: arriving in LA and at the steakhouse.

>>429 I had forgotten half of these. My brain likely trying to protect itself. Boy, KK really threw cold water on that publicity fire, didn't she?
KK's bombshell was after the dungaree shopping evening. 16 July. They had started to cool down a bit on the pap strolls by then, but the radio silence afterwards is very noticeable.
TS just posted an Instagram Story (that's a thing now, I guess) of her cat from her Nashville house. These stories can only be posted live, which means TS is in Nashville. She must have either been on the plane when it flew on July 31, which means the fishy Church Key restaurant sighting was indeed bogus, or she's got some other new sneaky transportation method.
>>433 There is also a report from twitter that TS spent yesterday hanging out with Gigi Hadid, so it looks like she traveled from Los Angeles to Nashville some time in the past 24 hours.
And, by the way, I only know the video was taken in Nashville because the tumblr Swifties have the interiors of her houses memorized and were able to ID it immediately.
I take it back, I think TS flew to Nashville in her jet on the 31st. I messed up because I had my dates wrong, plus the sighting of Taylor visiting Gigi Hadid yesterday is very unreliable.
July 30: Church Key dinner, TS pictured with other friends, Tom allegedly there too.
July 31: TS and TH go to the gym separately during the day.
July 31: TS's plane flies to Nashville in the afternoon, according to people who were watching it.
August 1: Tom goes to the gym alone during the day.
August 1: Tom flies out of LAX in the evening.
August 2: TS posts a video of her cat from her Nashville home.
All of this makes sense. Then we get this sighting, which messes up the timeline. I saw these photos in a tumblr post, traced it back to the original tweets, and found what is one of the most suspicious Twitters I've encountered. These are the posts... which are literally the only two posts the account has made since it's creation... yesterday.
https://twitter . com/taylorfan12122/status/760513092975329280
https://twitter . com/taylorfan12122/status/760512999199158272
My opinion is that we can assume the timeline I laid out above is accurate, and the TS visiting GH pictures on Twitter are misdated.
>>435 The Gigi pics look old because Taylor's hair looks too light there. It looks like her old bleached hair and it's not like that anymore. And now we have outright lies in tabloids starting up that are yet again all about Taylor being a victim twitter(.)com/TomTheNextLevel/status/760515263771054080
And there is the Star caption of the breakup that went along with Tom's LAX pics.
Also, did anyone see if Tree Paine was following Luke Windsor? Apparently there's some debate over whether she was ever following him versus she just unfollowed him. Her squad never followed Tom. If they had, Swifties would have been all over that. If we see more and more "Tom used her" headlines and no Gossip Cop denials then we'll know they've broken up and she's throwing Tom under the bus.
>>435 I tend to agree with NewAnon that her hair looks to bleached to be recent. But even if those photos aren't misdated they don't really disrupt your timeline. She could have met with Gigi Hadid on the 1st, left for Nashville in the evening/night and make that video of her cat on the 2nd.
Bottom line she wasn't on the plane with TH. For now.
>>436 I can't remember. But like you said, we'll see from her PR what is about to happen.
>>436 "Her friends are ghosting him" ...what? Did he ever actually follow any of the people listed?
>>440 I don't think he ever followed any of them, but they allegedly followed and then unfollowed him because he's such a bad boyfriend. Or something.
>>442 My Twitter says this was posted 6.30am GMT on 2 August. What time was that in LA? Either this was an "I am watching him on DVD too" or there was a meeting earlier in the day.
TH has arrived in Brisbane! FYI, TS's plane was only in the air for at most three hours on the day that it flew. I saw that. So if TS in Nashville, she charted a private plane and left from a smaller airport.
>>444 Thanks. It's just difficult for me to accept the idea that a woman who already owns two jets would charter a third one for seemingly no reason. Nothing about her makes sense to me.
More importantly, hooray for Tom in Brisbane!
What on earth does he have in his backpack in addition to those 2 huge pieces of luggage? It is positively bulging. PS it wasn't a change of clothes for the flight!
>>446 I suppose this is the same guy he hugged when he landed in Brisbane the first time.
That seems a lot of luggage for someone who wore the same outfit for most of his staying SD and LA.
