Thread to talk about the actor Tom Hiddleston
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).

>>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.
>>449 I wonder if he went to the personal shopper in LA and bought some new clothes to avoid being mocked.
>>450 That makes sense, of course he will also need the occasion to sport his new clothes.
It could also be that Olly raided his wardrobe in London and brought it to him in LA. At the very least, the amount of luggage means his staying in Oz this time will be longer.
Mark Ruffalo wraps on Thor3
https://www.instagram.com/p/BIo0UhvBDZa/
Because contrary to general belief, they were actually filming in Oz.
On a side note, I watched High Rise, I did not like it. Nothing to do with the book. It has a few good moments, though.
>>452 Wow. That really surprises me. I thought the whole movie was meant to be Thor/Hulk bro love. If it was then it was the shortest love affair in history. What kind of dog's dinner is this movie going to be? A load of cameos from known characters and no plot?
>>454 I'm not sure how it works, does Ruffalo have to be on scene all the time for them to create CG Hulk? Because I doubt there'll be much Brenner. I sure hope it won0t be another disjointed plot like Thor2.
Taylor Swift wants everyone to know that Hiddleswift is still going strong http://www.people.com/people/mobile/article/0,,21022092,00.html
Uh huh. Thanks Taylor.
>>456 Funny how they left out the bit where he left for Oz by himself. Normally I'd say this means she is going to join him in Brisbane, but since she also denied leaving Harris for TH...
Of course date night was sponsored. Of course. JBrand jeans and ETRO shirt for Tom twitter(.)com/EtroOfficial/status/760837651813523456
>>457 Lol yeah let's ignore the fact that he just flew off for work to a different continent. The Swifties are freaking out. I'm waiting for them to do a Kickstarter or GoFundMe to get Taylor and Tom permanently attached at the hip so the soulmates can always stay together and nothing will get in the way of true love.
>>458 Seriously, if he dares saying another time how authentik this bloody thing I'll do a prayer circle for a virtual slap.
>>456 It's been said here before: what I dislike most about this situation is the assumption that I'm stupid, have the research skills of an ADHD kitten or have the memory of a goldfish. I don't exist within any part of that Venn diagram, so don't throw out bullshit press releases masquerading as articles/truth.
I'm aware that People sit safely in TS's pocket - as they do with most celebs. Like the exclusive article People had about date night that was released about 10 minutes after the sat down! I'm also aware of Gossip Cop and Just Jared's connections to PR people. I know that the information coming from these sources aren't necessarily the truth but is what TS and TH want us to think is the truth.
>>455 I would think he did his GCI / green screen / motion capture thing and is done. They'll probably then do voice work after the GCI stuff.
FYI, www.gossipcom.com just denied that TS wants a proposal from TH before the Emmy awards, and they denied that TH had to fly out LA to console TS because she didn't get nominated for VMAS. TS claims that none of her videos were in contention, and she claims that TH only flew out west for Comic Con. Plus the relationship progressed quickly just because she was free this summer. No mention that TH just left the country w/o her though. Do you think their teams are working together?
>>462 TS is absolutely definitely not pining for a proposal! Riiiiiiight.
>>463 There was an actress whose name I can't recall. She did an interview in which she said that she always had 2-3 rings set aside at Tiffany's for when her boyfriends were ready to propose. She would let this fact slip after a month of dating.
This is TS. She'd like a proposal yesterday because that makes for the most romantic story, song, life, doesn't it?
>>462 Her team is now trying to make her look like a strong woman who doesn't need a man or anything and that Tom and Taylor are two independent people despite the drivel they fed us since June ever since Taylor's ex and Kimye drama started. From "Taylor is just so happy with Tom the drama doesn't bother her" to "Tom consoles Taylor over VMA snub" to "Tom tells Taylor to ignore the negativity" and all the Tom helps Taylor overcome something or handle something etc etc.
It's interesting they're doing such heavy handed denials now that Tom had flown out of the country. Did they break up before he left and that's why her team is trying to scavenge whatever is left her credibility?
I don't think their teams are working together. I don't think they ever were with how much beating Tom had taken in the media, both serious and tabloid. It was all about her from the beginning and they think we're all idiots who'd buy their transparent media circus and laughable tabloid headlines. Just like Anon. said in >>460
>>466 Remember when the guy from ET stuck a mic in Tom's face at the end of SDCC and asked him about TS, and LW, behind TH, looked like he was choking back a 'omg stfu' ? I agree with you NewAnon - their PRs have not been working together. I don't think LW was ever on board with the whole thing and backed away for as long as he could (I'd love to know what he actually thinks of TS as a person). Not sure which specific opportunity first withered due to the bad publicity, but I'll be his initial meeting with LW in California had more fireworks than the one with the agents.
>>467 No, I believe Luke was on board from the beginning and trusted Taylor and her team to take care of his image along with hers during this relationship. It's not unusual for a client's publicist to take a more subdued role for a bit for the sake of the client due to one reason or another that's to do with the client's image or branding, or trust another client or studio's publicist because the goals line up. But I don't think Tom or Luke realized just how much they'd get shafted for Taylor's own agenda. They signed up for this circus thinking it'd be a mutually beneficial relationship that will also look good in the media. Except nope, the kids are woefully out of their depth. That's what he gets for all his authenticity.
>>468 Thank god for Dlisted "That also explains why Taylor hasn’t been papped by herself really. Taylor has been too busy crying on the floor of her bedroom while clutching the “Name A Star” certificate that Tom gave her on their week anniversary. Yes, Taylor bought the certificate herself, wrapped it and just told Tom to hand it to her, but still." LOL!
'Someone call the search party – Hiddleswift is missing.
Last month, the internet was inundated with loved-up pictures of Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston:
They awkwardly cuddled on rocks as if they were in a Nicholas Sparks film.
They walked hand-in-hand around Rome.
Tay Tay met Tom's mum Diana.
Tom donned that embarrassing 'I <3 T.Swift' tank top at the singer's 4th July celebrations.
They repeatedly looked suspiciously happy walking through airports together (no one looks that happy after a long-haul flight, Taylor).
But now – nothing.'
....meanwhile, as breakup rumors abound, the Swifties tracked Tays jet from Nashville to RI and they naturally assume she attached herself to the plane.
They remain resolute she will reattach herself to TH in an independent and non- clingy manner next week so they can resume having sex twice a week on allocated days and kickstart those wedding and baby plans while she redecorates his bachelor pad. All it needs is a woman's touch.
>>470 Doesn't Elle UK adore TH and have a good relationship with him? Could this possibly be Luke tugging the breakup rumors? That's quite interesting.
>>471 Swifties believe Taylor will attend one of Selena's concerts in Australia, either this weekend or next week. That's gonna be their independent non clingy girlfriend excuse. "She's not there for Tom, she's there to support her friend! It's Tom who adores her and went to go meet her and take her out to dinner in a location that's never visited by paps yet just happened to have a bunch of them waiting outside for them to arrive because Taylor is just so famous okay?"
>>472 It appeared they did, until the interview while he was playing Coriolanus, which amounted to cringeworthy fangirling (but gave us great video and pictures, so there is that).
There's more HL 'she's dying without him by her side!' silliness. http://hollywoodlife.com/2016/08/03/taylor-swift-misses-tom-hiddleston-lonely-time-apart/
In other news, I'm waiting for Taylor and Tom to one-up Katy and Orlando. Naked manservant is hard to top, especially if you're trying to maintain that virginal 14 year old fanbase. James Weir:

It looks like TS is gathering her Squad for some sort of party in either NYC or RI. Her back-up plane has been making the rounds, presumably to pick people up.
>>475 Also I'd just like to say I hate that this is something I have any interest in. I want to smack TH in the face just for that.
>>476 It's most likely KK's bday bash. We never would have known if he weren't for him, even though he doesn't seem to be involved in this party.
Ok magazine has just sent out their first Hiddleston/Swift Trouble in Paradise article! This is b/c TH doesn't want to get engaged to TS, and because he won't consent to be TS's date to her buff Abigail's wedding, so they say. Is this the beginning of the relationship unraveling in the American Press? What do we think? www.okmagazine.com
>>479 Is OK US or UK based? My tabloid IQ is not what it should be.
OK MAGAZINE: okmagazine*com/photos/tom-hiddleston-marriage-taylo-swift-relationship-drama/photo/1001465262/
I think, US. The link won't show up blue for some reason. How do I do that? Blah! : )
>>480 I think it originated in the UK. Seems now to be international, like Hello. I always think of it as a downmarket version of Hello.
though I see the dot com website for OK (as opposed to the dot co dot UK one) redirects to Radar Online and I cannot see any of the articles on Radar's front page. No trouble in paradise article available in the UK :(
>>482 I thought it was UK as well. I think I remember seeing Kerry Katona's face on a cover at a Tesco...when Kerry Katona did something other than plug Iceland's party trays. (Shhhh, their breaded cheese selection tray was lovely!)
It's all captions to pictures again - no new pics, just the usual ones where he's looking miserable.
Here you go:
Someone wants an engagement ring! Taylor Swift may have only recently started dating Tom Hiddleston, but she’s already considering marriage, thanks to her BFFAbigail Anderson!
In June, Taylor’s friend from high school got engaged to her photographer boyfriendMatt Lucier, and her wedding “has amped up Taylor’s own desire to get married,” a source told Life & Style. But while Tom is clearly smitten with the pop star, he’s pumping the brakes when it comes to the idea of marriage.
The 35-year-old is apparently not ready to walk down the aisle, and he reportedly even turned down the invite to Abigail’s wedding! “Tom knows he’ll be under a microscope at the wedding and that it will be intense pressure. Tom told her Abigail’s wedding is too far in the future for him to commit to going,” the source revealed.
So is this a bad sign for Taylor’s relationship? Taylor has already met Tom’s mom, so it’s evident that things have gotten serious between the couple, but now she is having doubts since Tom won’t commit to going to the ceremony!
“She sees it as a red flag. But she’s trying to give him the benefit of the doubt,“ said the source.
All I can picture is a toddler stamping their foot, turning red and saying 'I WANT IT AND I WANT IT NOW!!!'
Run for the hills, dude.
I think he actually did like this tweet: http://sugarteachatter.tumblr.com/post/148512385242/woah-what
https://www.theguardian.com/film/2016/aug/06/watch-back-tom-hiddleston-peak-posh
Burn courtesy of the Guardian:
'Twenty years ago, the icons of British sexiness were the working class Liam Gallagher and Kate Moss, who both had the permanent grubbiness of the mosh pit on them. Now, it’s the pink and shiny Hiddleston and Cara Delevingne, an unabashedly upper-class model, both of whom look as if they’d be utterly lost if they left the VIP area...
Poor old Hiddleston was presumably hoping that life as Taylor Swift’s boyfriend would provide him with escape from the posho box, but now he is floundering in tabloid hell. Playing the American paparazzi takes more skill than the Eton wall game, I guess.'
ouch
>>488 Ouchy Burn!
"Cameron’s cultural legacy has been a generation of actors educated at his old school or somewhere similar."
Hiddleston has become a legacy of Cameron, that's gorgeous, thank you The Guardian, you made my day!
Btw, this is the 5th or 6th article where The Guardian drags TH.
>>487 I don't doubt it, I think the idea that TH is oblivious to everything being said and written about him on the internet is a blatant lie.
Luke Windsor isn't following Taylor's publicist on Twitter. I'm 100% sure he was following her until a few days ago.
>>493 according to my Twitter he is still following her. It is a little way down the list.
>>494 Silly me. I was checking the Prosper account.
Anyway, it's getting boring. We need more pap walks or Tom wearing "I heart TS" vests, or Tom naked with a "I DO heart TS" tatooed on his chest. Anything goes...
Tay is in the Hamptons impersonating a poodle singing karaoke with Nellie and partying with the vacuous rich and famous and her bff Karlie.

gag reflex
Says Frederick Forsyth:
‘I got a tip the other day which I’ll share with you,’ he says conspiratorially. ‘I understand [Bond producer] Barbara Broccoli is absolutely no way going to pick Tom Hiddleston. No. Way.’
>>497 In explanation for my gag reflex, I find Tay's hairstyle an insult to follicles and an abomination of modern hairstyling. I say this as a hairstylist; if a client asked me to replicate this and it was not in jest, I would refuse.
Due to her popularity in mainstream culture I am terrified this will catch on. It's irresponsible and reprehensible.
