Thread to talk about the actor Tom Hiddleston
>>200 Some are grappling to see who has The Most Knowledge of him. Some are talking trash about the people who are grappling to see who has The Most Knoweledge of him. The rest of us have pulled up a camp chair and are eating popcorn.
Oh BTW, the fandom briefly hit DEFCON 1 because a fake nude pap pic hit the airwaves. Turns out it's Tom's head (from a Night Manager filming shot) on Zac Efron's body.
<<193 Don't drink the beverages, they're laced with mind control drugs.
I agree the hospital visit was backed by Marvel for promotion but combined with the meet and greets, this is excessive even by Marvel standards. Could it be Marvel backed contrition (with the blessing of team Tom)? There was that odd meeting in NY followed by an abrupt change of gears.
If I was orchestrating a comeback I would chose this audience; Marvel fans have proven to be his most loyal and vocal. They don't give a shit about Miss Swift.
I get the impression CH is being a really good mate accompanying him on his thirsty outings this week to help him with his damage control.
>>203 I agree! That's what I've been saying! TH's trip to NYC was the game changer for the whole shenanigan! That's why TS (who was spotted that day yelling from her car in Nashville in a traffic jam) immediately boomeranged back on her plane from Nashville to LA, while TH was flying commercial to LA, for the pap walk that occurred that night at Hillstone. She knew that it could be their last romantic pap walk together, period. TH has served the Marvel fans beautifully with his acting skills as Loki, and his appearances at Comic Con, and they loved the free goodies as well. Marvel/Disney probably was always going to do something with the children's hospital, since Tom Holland visited a hospital dressed as Spiderman, Chris Evans and A Mackie visited a Boston hospital, and Johnny Depp came dressed as J Sparrow to the same Australian hospital as CH and TH, already. The event had such a high level of exposure in order to resuscitate TH's brand. The instagram games are just to keep the Swifties fed. And the links between the two of them in articles are part of the contract, end date unknown. >>198 Don't think TS needs therapy. She probably thinks the general public is crazy for not buying her storyboarded romantic BS.

"Whosoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor!" (i.e. everyone but the weirdo in the black suit). Unforgettable meeting all the children @ladycilentochildrenshospital. They're the real heroes. #madepossiblebychf #juicedtv #ladycilentochildrenshospital
The hospital visit was actually backed by the Chris Hemsworth Foundation
My good mate theory holds strong.
>>205 I wasn't contradicting you. CH definitely was involved as well. I was just pointing out Marvel/Disney's charity history, as well. No costumes/comic characters could have been used by anyone without Marvel/Disney backing! I love your point!
I don't think this visit has anything to do with Tom. It's got Marvel/ Disney usual fingerprints all over it. They've always been big on charity and they send their actors to children's hospitals for movie promotions all the time. Loki and Thor are Marvel properties. They wouldn't be swayed that easily by Tom because he wants some good press. That would mean he's pushing his employer to help him with his own image and Marvel isn't going to arrange this at one actor's behest. This hospital itself is a big celebrity draw so based on Marvel/ Disney's history, I believe this was their idea to draw attention to their movie as well as to give back to the city since they are using the country's funds, and Chris is beloved in his country so it makes sense for him to give back. Its focused on Thor, not Loki. If it was at Tom's request, we'd see him more front and center than Chris.
>>206 I didn't intend that to be a clapback- I hadn't read your >>203 post before running my mouth off again. Sorry for the confusion.
>>207 Marvel certainly gave the visit their stamp of approval. I was suggesting it was orchestrated by CH to raise awareness for his foundation which TH pointed out in his IG comments: #madepossiblebychf
There was so much press coverage its a win for all anyway.
>>208 Yep, definitely a win for all. To be honest, I'm really glad to see Chris Hemsworth get more recognition as Thor this time around. The past promos had centered too much around Tom and Loki before, making it seem like Loki was the main character and not Thor. The big lug doesn't get enough love sometimes.
Help Syrian children and decorate your dartboard!

>>211 Thank you for this article! OMG! Does this mean that Team Tom had the smarts to negotiate an out clause where he looks normal, and TS looks clingy? This way, she can still right breakup song about regrets, while he gets off without looking cruel or like a user!? Wow! Wow!
>>211 There is no gossip cop denial yet! We'll have to watch...
TH in Casualty: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-3756357/The-listers-started-careers-Casualty.html
Enjoying the caption on his pic!
Sadly it is Allisn not Michael K (Anon., is he with you?). But a few gems nevertheless: http://dlisted.com/2016/08/24/breaking-theres-been-trouble-in-taylor-swift-and-tom-hiddlestons-perfect-couple-paradise/
>>214 Grrrrrrr. Ugh. Blurgh. Hmmm. Ummm.
The wind down or the fake wind down. After all these are two stunting, attention-seeking PRmancers we're talking about. Could be the wind down, could be the lead in to "they reunite halfway in HI (plenty of beaches and we all know how they love beaches) to renew their 'love' and 'relationship.'"
Either way: Fuck right off, Tayto - the both of you.
What is going on in CB land with this news? How is the veranda lady handling it?
>>218 CB usually gets things the next day, so we won't know till tomorrow.
>>220 Will the veranda BURN to the ground or will she try to put it out with brownies?
>>219 These kids, or their PR teams, are pretty manipulative. However, it would have been very easy for Tree and TS to construct some sort of BS Gossip Cop denial of trouble in paradise, if that was their prerogative. Therefore, I'm assuming that leaked info of a supposed fight and their conflicting schedules, are faux fact-lets, and are part of their faux-lationship narrative arch. Esp. since TS sells to US weekly, People, and Gossip Cop. If TH wants to go to the Emmys solo, and avoid all Swift questions on the red carpet, he has to get out over the next week-ish or two weeks, to give enough time for the story to die down. TH worked like a dog over the past two years, he has a rapacious sense of ambition, and I think he wants his career to have its place in the sun. He wants to work the Emmys and get a brilliantly written script with a leading part for himself. Of course, I could be wrong : )
>>223 It's her own plant, she's not going to use Gossip Cop to deny her own plant. There's a lot of magazines reporting on this "argument" now though. And the way the language is tilted in her favor, I'm guessing it's more from her team than a joint team effort, either to play up her victim act again "oh poor me my boyfriend is neglecting me for his work boo hoo whyyy" OR both Tom and Taylor are trying to make people think they're on their way to a breakup only to appear together at the Emmy's and get optimum publicity. She could also be trying to piggy back on his current publicity so that she can remind the public again that it's HER boyfriend.
Either way, I don't think I'm buying the narrative that they're breaking up. Also, it's interesting that as soon as Tom starts to get good publicity on his own as Loki, something comes out about Taylor being the victim yet again - "my boyfriend is so busy working and I'm just so lonely :("
Do you think she sends him texts like that?
"Sigh. I'm so bored."
"What are you doing? Are you still at work?"
"The cats miss their daddy. They want to skype with you."
"Tom what are you wearing to the Emmy's? We should match! Twinsies!"
"Where are you??? omg are you seriously that busy? I'm a huge world wide famous pop star. If I can find time to text you, you can definitely reply back. Don't even, Tom. We all know you're not THAT famous."
"Toooommmm...I'm so bored. Talk to me...I'm getting sad :("
Tom comes back to find 98 messages and 45 missed calls on his phone. All from Taylor Swift.
Really Taylor?! CH went to the children's hospital again by himself this weekend, w/o TH, just to visit more kids for his charity by himself. And the Dailymail even shoehorned the old pics of TS visiting the same hospital into CH's article!! Either the Dailymail or Tree is just plain greedy! It's about CH's foundation, and the children! Not TS's image repair! Golly.
Thor-tful hero! Chris Hemsworth pays second visit to Brisbane children's hospital after surprising patients with Tom Hiddleston earlier in the week
Apparently Todrick Hall, a broadway performer from the Color Purple and Kinky Boots, is a friend of TS. Todrick and TS were hanging out all day today, and Todrick just liked a pic of TH on instagram. The Swifties are just hanging onto the twitter follows by Austin Swift, and the instagram likes by TS's friends to hold this relationship together. It's the most immature thing I've ever heard of. It's like high school. Relationships aren't built or maintained online by one's besties of the moment!
>>226 Her brother isn't following Tom on Twitter. I checked. That little screenshot of Austin following Tom is from Instagram.
Taylor's demographic is all about social media, that's why she lives through it so much and uses tabloids like her personal Facebook status, updating the world on what she's upto and when. Her fans are still obnoxious though. Just like how Tom's stans and that CB veranda lady are obnoxious.
That's true, neither Austin nor Tom are following eachother. Swifties stirring up rumors again..
The plaid shirt is back and Tom has a giant zit on his chin, but otherwise no news. PS I think his hair looks better now it is getting longer again.

Thankyou Brisbane for the Beatlemania.
I hope in a few years time you are all too ashamed to admit you queued and screamed all day, just as I will never mention the name of the singer who's hand I touched during a concert when I was 15 and cried hysterically saying I'd never wash my hand again

The painful smile of a man on his 20th hour of a strong acid trip. I'm starting to feel sorry for him.
Still no GC denial of the fight story. Which means, I think, that it was a plant. Even if is denied now, they haven't rushed into print with it, so they wanted for some reason for it to gain traction.
The snark from dailymail is hysterical: "Taylor, 26, made sure to appear as if she didn't have a care in the world as she headed to dinner with BFF and squad member Todrick Hall."
Its as if everyone is aware that her life is a reality tv show.

Taylor Swift shakes it off in sunshine yellow amid reports her romance with Tom Hiddleston has hit a rocky patch

Presented without comment (which is hard for me!):
>>233 I just saw the original UsWeekly story and it does seem like a plant, I'll agree, but a strangely positive one.
(My No Clicks for Famewhores policy) Here it:
Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston’s love story has reached its first conflict.
In the new issue of Us Weekly, a source reveals the pair of two months had “a major argument” in early August. Explains the source of the 26-year-old “Wildest Dreams” singer, who split with Calvin Harris in early June, “They weren’t spending as much time together.”
The issues came from the 35-year-old actor’s busy schedule. Inseparable the first few weeks of their romance — after they were photographed making out near her Westerly, Rhode Island, manse June 14, they traveled from Nashville to England to Italy and finally to the Australian set of his superhero film Thor: Ragnarok — it became tough for them to pencil in face-to-face time, says a close Swift insider.
“There was so much going on so it was hard making their schedules work,” says the insider, “and they were upset they couldn’t see each other.”
But the 10-time Grammy winner and the charming 6-foot-2 Brit — he told U.K. blog Run Riot his ideal date involves “a beautiful dinner somewhere lovely with boatloads of flowers, chocolates and champagne” — have already shaken off their first tiff.
Hiddleston flew out to her seven-bedroom Rhode Island spread August 14 for a quick two-day stay before reporting back to work Down Under.
“Tom is busier than her right now, so it’s been hard,” the close Swift insider admits of the singer, who wrapped her 85-date 1989 World Tour in December. “They’ve had some schedule issues, but things are otherwise fine. They are making it work.”
They were upset they couldn't see each other. Okay, sure, yeah, whatever. But then we get an 'already shaken off their first tiff' and a 'they are making it work.' See, everyone: this is a normal relationship, we struggle to balance work and personal life, we make out on rocks during our first date AND fight. Overall, I think this is more legitimizing of the relationship and not necessarily getting the ball rolling on the break-up narrative. Perhaps it is a seed for the break-up narrative, i.d., it was distance and work commitments that caused their first tiff, so the same will be the reasons behind the demise of Tayto.
>>237 The US Weekly story must have an agenda. The Star version of the fight story was very unflattering to TS, since it mentioned TH buyer's remorse and how TS had hurt his career and his image. Maybe the US Weekly article not just for more press, but also to trump Star magazine's perpective. But the lack of a Gossip Cop denial of the more negative comments about TS by Star is evidence that they want us to start questioning their romance. Tree has been defending their relationship vigorously through Gossip Cop, never letting us assume that their rapport is anything but perfect. Instagram follows and dinner pap nights in NYC are just to distract us from the main issue, that two millionaires who claim to be in love/lust, and have access to trains, planes and automobiles have no intention of seeing each other anytime soon. Bring on the VMAs and the end of Emmy voting, so the contract can end, and the breakup can follow over the next few weeks.
>>237 Your last sentence is how I interpret it. The relationship has to be "legitimate" because who cares about the breakup of a fake relationship? However, it also has a shelf life, and they want to get that out there (cf previous comment about how their lurve may not last forever). So they sow the seed of "we really loved each other but..."
Taylor Swift, Weeknd to perform at 2016 United States Grand Prix in October. I predict that TS will have a brand new single for this concert, a duet featuring the Weeknd. No evidence of this, just a feeling. A song with their fan groups would have great crossover appeal, and widen her audience.
>>238 Tom Hiddleston is not a millionaire. Far from that. That's why he sold himself to Taylor Swift.
My goodness! The dailymail just published an entire article on TSs alleged boob job operation, using her gym pics from today. They have too little time on their hands, and very little love for TS...Gossip Cop denial in 3, 2, 1...
https://www.instagram.com/p/BJjPOGojn3t/
For the zit on his chin which looks like he popped it!! His eyes look red...probably still crying himself to sleep.
DM skirts past my No Clicks for Famewhores rule. The comments are too good.
She went too big. My friend did the same. Her surgeon said, 'People always say they wish they'd gone bigger so better to go larger to begin with.' My friend is bigger than TS so it's not as obvious. It looks like TS has ended up with the dreaded refund gap - they're closer to her armpits than to each other.
Oh lawdy....'Including Tom, she now has a total of three fake bo0bs.'
The IG news of the day is that TH followed The Rock.
In light of his excessive namedropping of the Fast and Furious series and his unsubtle summer is this his replacement job for Bond?
Also, there's another strange glitch. Looking at his 18 followers, only The Rock is visible- the other 17 have vanished.
It's probably just another phone glitch. Two glitches only on his account in one week is alarming.
>>244 I guess now both Taylor and Tom have buyers remorse :)
>>247 I'm guessing this weird glitch that only seems to be happening on Tom and Taylor's IG is because of that snake removing tool. A quick patch like that would still be buggy and this bug messes with their following/ follower count perhaps.
>>243 That zit was volcanic. I wouldn't have been able to resist. I again think his hair looks nice. Longer and not being blow dried straight. It is much better on him.
>>244 Looking at the side on pics I am thinking that the second boob job was very recent. Even at the Met Gala they look a lot smaller. What is the recovery time on a boob job? Could you have one in (say) mid May and be ready to get jiggly with a man in mid June? Would they not be terribly sore?
PS I wish when I gained 10 lb that it all went on my tits. Maybe I should become a Swift worshipper and it will happen.
"Taylor Swift, Kim Kardashian VMAs Showdown NOT Happening, Despite Report"
GossipcCop denies that TS will be in a showdown or a reconciliation with KK or KW at the VMAs, since she is not scheduled to attend the award show. Who wants to bet she will do something photo worthy instead of going the VMAS to draw attention to herself? : ) ALSO, no denial of the fight with TH.
If Tom is telling the truth here, he's not going to the Emmys.
Production returns to the Gold Coast for the remainder of the shoot with Hiddleston promising he won't be going anywhere until the end of October.
"It has been absolutely amazing, everyone in Brisbane has been incredible," he said.
"Brisbane is right up there (with other places I have filmed), it has been great.
"I'm not leaving Queensland any time soon."
>>244 she could have gotten those saline implant with a port that allows the doc to inject more after the operation in office with nothing more than a local for discomfort. Easy to customize the size. I suppose they can remove saline too.
>>252 She's probably fuming that her pretend boyfriend isn't available for a pap stroll or rock based, off target kissing session! I predict that she'll be papped trying on a wedding dress. She's in NYC looking for a bridal store with a huge picture window.
Actually...I fear IG pics or another engagement rumor; they're all she has now.
>>253 But he tells lies. Next it will be, 'I had to travel to LA to buy more Marvel posters because I'd given them all away.'
>>253 I don't believe him. He's just buttering them up and then he'll show up in LA for the Emmy's while her jet ends up en route there too, and ugh proceed with desperate stunting. He's done this twice now. Dunno why he even says all that when he can just stay quiet.
>>255 She's really milking the Emmy's debut and the "we're a normal couple look at us be normal and argue, don't you plebs argue?" angle for now. She's probably saving the engagement for post Emmy when he flies back to work until Nov. Hints of a Christmas engagement but a proposal right around her birthday.
Well someone just hacked Tom's IG. Let's see how long it takes for him to get it back.
>>258 ouch, if he is a creature of habits when it comes to passwords and emails too, this hack might lead to a leak.
His IG has been glitching all week and I suspect, as does New Anon, that it's a symptom of the new IG negative cleansing tool.
This does look like a proper hack rather than a glitch though.
>>259 I hope so, I want leaked Hiddleswift emails pronto!
>>259 I second the hope of an email leak. I'd love to see his emails to TS and to Luke, his real love. Maybe we will see the relationship contract documents!!
>>256 He will tell this lie while lighting up a cigarette.
As far as hacking goes, it was below average. I heard his Facebook page was also hacked but didn't see it myself. He's making light of his IG hack in his IG story.
>>264 Looks like he deleted it. I'm sure if you search his tag, you'll see screenshots of it. His story was basically a screenshot of Elite Daily saying Tom got hacked or was it Tom trying to figure out how to use snapchat on there.
>>265 I think also stories haven't been rolled out yet to us plebs in the UK. I can't create or view a story. TH obviously has special access along with the snake remover (can this plug in also be used in his private life?!!)
What did the hackers do? Did they post anything? How do you know it was hacked?
Ignore my question. It's here:
https://www.yahoo.com/celebrity/tom-hiddleston-instagram-gets-hacked-000000708.html
And we have the very first dailymail article in gosh knows how long, without a single pic TH, or the happy couple. Its just about TS! And the phase down continues, I guess.

Gossip Cop article denying that TH was flirting w 2 girls on set during filming. Unfortunately, for Tree, the bloggers were talking about another situation where TH seemed to be eyeballing this woman up and down. I knew that TS's PR trolled the blogs! Anyway, Gossip Cop denies anything that makes TS look bad. TH losing interest or cheating on TS would not be positive for image:
"As proof, the tabloid has a 30-second video of Hiddleston, in his signature Loki wig, talking to a few people, as a crowd is gathered nearby. The actor is seen conversing with two men and two women. Star doesn’t have any idea what was being discussed, as the footage was shot by paparazzi using long-distance lenses.
And yet the magazine is convinced Hiddleston was “flirting” with the girls. By that logic then, he must’ve been “flirting” with the guys, too, because he’s not seen interacting with them any differently. But here’s what’s really going on: Star took a totally innocent sighting of the actor and turned it into a scandalous-sounding story about his relationship with Swift. It’s just not a true one."
>>271 Lol okay THAT is really going out of the way to debunk a rumor that wasn't even really going around. That Star story, no one was paying attention to it til Gossip Cop brought it up. Someone has a really think skin. Or a very clear "I'm the victims in this narrative" plan laid out.
It is interesting in the comments, Gossip Cop deleted the video a commenter posted of Tom being flirty with a reporter lol
>>254 'she could have gotten those saline implant with a port...' Oh good Lord. That sounds awful.
>>258 Oh, oh. I was wondering why there were so many posts on a Friday! It's not like hacking a phone, is it. They could only have access to some basic info and then the pics he's already posted. Am I wrong?
>>262 No Leo D. vapes, so he'll vape in an effort to wine an Oscar.
>>266 Ha!
>>274 His hack was a total let down and anticlimactic. Much like his relationship with Swift. Shocked us all in the beginning and afterwards it was like trying to get people excited over which shade of beige pops out more. Leslie Jones suffered a serious hack and it's actually newsworthy. Tom's hacked and commented "hi my love" to Taylor and advertised their and their friends snapchat.
>>275 That's too much thinking for a slightly air-conditioned apartment!! To me, the best course of action - which we've always done 'round these parts - is to laugh at him, them and this situation (and all future ri-donk-u-lus situations).
We've always mocked him during these WTF moments because he's just so mockable when he fucks up. PapNight '15 - never forget! - resulted in dozens of board memes and inside jokes. Tayto has been the same. Laughing and shaking your head at him is so much more enjoyable than trying to make sense out of their nonsense - because it is nonsense, desperate, grabby, grubby, thirsty nonsense.
Shhhhh, if you laugh at him, you also don't need to consider what this says about his moral compass.
Someone did a mock up of one of the outfits Kanye could wear at the VMAs.
If there is a God, KW WILL wear this. Brisbane has been very good to TH, but I fear that adoration has swallowed up the lesson. This outfit could be a much-needed lesson.

>>27 Pity we Londoners - hotter than Miami this week and almost no British homes are air conditioned.
>>274 Gross? Yes. I've seen videos of it but it's usually been porn stars. It's a way to experiment with size without mulitple surgeries.
>>235 Re: the tweets where fans thanked TH for being sweet to TS - Those poor little cult members, clutching at any crumb they get that the relationship is real.
>>278 ROTFL
>>276 Someone on tumblr jokes that those domain names that you can see in the screenshot of TH's hacked IG page belong to porn sites, implying that someone's been looking at some pretty naughty stuff at night. I dare not click on those to test that theory, and neither should any of you unless you're behind an airtight firewall.
>>279 Anon - are fans helping, or is it humid too?
>>279 What's the temp? And is it humid? I always question a Londoner's concept of 'hot.' I remember it once got up to 85/30 degrees and people were fainting on the tube from heat stroke. And there was no humidity!
I'd just moved from New Jersey - 90s in the summers, 100% humidity, where I'd had no A/C in my dinky graduate student apartment - and I was watching people melt into puddles when it got to 85 degrees. As a new arrival, all I could think was, I can't believe you people managed to burn our capital city!
It reminds me of that Black Books episode where Manny has Dave's Syndrome. And eating fudge keeps him from going blind.
Below is a link to a Marvel leaks thread. Who knows if any of this is true, but if it is then there are MAJOR SPOILERS, so proceed at your own risk.
Doing a screen search for Loki will allow you to get to the heart of TH matters.
BTW, TS flew back to Nashville today in her main jet at 12:52pm.

Gossip Cop and Tree Paine actually took time to deny the rumor that TS is hooking up with openly gay Broadway actor Todrick Hall after their dinner this week in NYC! So silly!
"Taylor Swift and Todrick Hall are NOT hooking up, despite a sensational report that implies their friendly hangout this week may have included some inappropriate behavior. Gossip Cop can bust the ridiculous story."
http://m.mailtribune.com/article/20160827/NEWS/160829733
More from James Ivory about his "long delayed" Richard II. "Ivory's choice for Richard is Tom Hiddleston, an English actor who's best known for such films as "The Avengers," the ongoing "Thor" series and "I Saw the Light," a recent biography about Hank Williams. Ivory hopes to lure Damien Lewis, best known for television's "Homeland" series, as Bolingbroke. Depending on Hiddleston's schedule, filming could begin next year."
Was this the Shakespeare project TH was going to announce this summer but never did? I have to say, every time Ivory talks about this it sounds like wish fulfilment on his part. Articles always say something like "Ivory's choice" is TH. They never say, TH has signed on to play RII.
See also this collage posted by Vin Diesel - the cast of Infinity Wars including TH:
>>288 Is that an official Marvel collage or just something VD - a man not known for his thinking - thinks is official? Because several of those actors from AoS have never passed over into the cinematic universe. And the Coulson character is actually dead in the cine universe. Also Marvel usually likes to keep people guessing rather than spill beans.
The Marvel leaks thread said Loki would be in 2 more films but who knows if they are IWs or if the leak is even correct.
Ivory without Merchant is a risk but TH may well want to go back to his roots rather than risk another action hero or leading man role that could flop.
>>290 Heaven knows. It did seem to originate from VD though. It would explain TH's apparent lack of projects, which I have found surprising given his crazy schedule since October 2014 and Coriolanus, which showed no sign of letting up.
Any predictions on if Taytay will throw out any flares to distract from Kanye and the VMAs? And what those flares will be?
Given that Tayto seems to have sprung into existence to distract from KK and KW, I'm expecting something but don't know what.
>>289,290 The Russo brothers have already announced that only the first film will be called Infinity War while the second will have a different title, so not only I doubt that Marvel would send out a collage to post online, I very much doubt Marvel would send out a collage with incorrect information.
>>291 I don't buy that he didn't announce anything because he is keeping himself free for these films, other actors that will surely be in them with major parts made announcements, Chris Evans with Jekyll, Hemsworth with Star Trek, Pratt with Jurassic World II. I also think Marvel will wait to see how Thor 3 fares at the box office before deciding if it makes sense to have Loki.
>>292 How about jury duty in Nashville?
https://mobile(.)twitter.
com/TSwiftPR/status/770271998685679616
>>294 Dailymail article about Taylor Swift released from jury duty on Nashville rape case after she tells judge she is already involved in a sexual assault case in Colorado. No mention at all of Hiddleston. Brilliant how the TS PR team uses the good Samaritan jury duty service to deflect from the sordidness of her pending sexual assault case, in which the DJ said that she lied about the assault. And it distinguishes TS girl next door image from those of all of the MTV video award attendees. Wow.

>>294 Looks like she just showed up for her summons, took a few pics, then got excused by the judge and left. I've never heard of her showin up for her summons before so this whole thing smacks of a pap stroll but an "organic" one.
>>295 Lol just posted about it too. I'm the same opinion as you. She deliberately went to make a show about her upcoming deliberation. You can easily postpone your summons for later and she's never answered a summons before. That's why it smacks of PR to me.
>>293 I did wonder if Marvel would send out a collage as a sort of casting announcement; and Vin Diesel is a Class A moron.
>>293 It could be the case that his part is small without any reference to Thor III box office. Rumor is that IWs will have all the main Avengers and Civil War peeps AND cameos from other Marvel characters. There won't be a lot of spare room for anyone.
>>293 He probably has something in the pipeline. It will be interesting to see what it is. Swifties think he'll get Bond but they have kitten fur for brains and don't seem to realize that the Bond boat has likely sailed. I would think his nanny-fans want him to do something highbrow to wash away the stain of pop princess-ness. Maybe not. Maybe they want a cutsie rom-com.
I just want him to sit in a corner and - in the words of my mother - 'think about what he's done.'
>>294 I doubt even she could manipulate that into existence but she might take advantage. Is there an accompanying UsWeekly article? "'I skipped the VMAs to do my civic duty!' says patriot Taylor Swift" or 'Tom Hiddleston just loves Taylor's sense of patriotic duty.'
>>297 >>295 So organic- some Swifties caught a glimpse of Tree lurking in the corridors, the timing is suspect as hell (VMAs avoidance/ impending assault case) and her no makeup (but actually packed on so thick you'd need to chisel it off) makeup screams so natural and organic you'd think she was just like you and me.
