Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston prove the sparks are still flying this holiday weekend: https://t.co/NqiM32MNvL pic.twitter.com/lpRq28WR6b

As everyone predicted, Tom Hiddleston magically appeared in Rhode Island this weekend for Taylor Swift’s annual Fourth of July bash. This year’s attendees included Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Ruby Rose, Karlie Kloss, Gigi Hadid and Uzo Aduba. No Selena Gomez? Hm. But whatever girl drama Swifty might have with her squad isn’t the story. No, the story is that even after a days-long “breather” from each other, Taylor and Tom are still in love. TIDDLES IS FOR REAL. The Daily Mail has the best/clearest photos of the beach party here.
Tom Hiddleston declares his love for Taylor Swift with 'tattoo' and a t-shirt https://t.co/gC5gXzeoXu pic.twitter.com/AGjXzEL1EL
— Daily Mail Celebrity (@DailyMailCeleb) July 4, 2016
Tom wore a “I HEART T.S.” t-shirt. Taylor wore an “America” bikini from Forever 21. They also had temporary tattoos with each other’s names/initials. I can already feel the Bump Watch happening with those photos of Taylor too. For what it’s worth, I examined her bump-area closely too. But I don’t think she’s knocked up. My gut says that she’s put on a few pounds (just a few, literally) because she’s not touring and she’s just on vacation. I will say this though: Taylor redid her boob job. She got a boob job several years back, but I’m now positive that she went and got them redone, with bigger, rounder implants. She has absolutely gone up a cup size at least.
Meanwhile, there were some assorted tabloid/whatever stories this holiday weekend.
*The Daily Mail ran a breakdown of Tom’s ancestral line, because why not? The DM did the same thing with Benedict Cumberbatch a while back, and you can see the DM’s Hiddles story here.
*Tom wants to ignore all of the criticism TIDDLES has been getting. A source told Reveal Mag that “Tom’s been incredibly supportive. When this backlash started, she was worried he’d cut and run, but it’s been the opposite. He’s done wonders to cheer Taylor up, when this is exactly the sort of thing that would normally really upset her. He even made a joke about how they’re moving too fast, and he mock-proposed to her with one of those plastic kiddie rings you get from a bubblegum machine. She thought it was hilarious.” Jesus, are they BOTH 13 years old?
*E! News has been running critical stories about Tiddles for more than a week. Critical as in “is this entire mess a showmance?” Well, E! spoke to Famously Single “dating coach” Laurel House to analyze the Tiddles romance. House thinks Swifty “finally broke her bad boy addiction. ‘Bad’ and ‘boy’ both being operative words. With Calvin, he was a good guy which prepared her for Tom, who is her man. Is it too fast? Is she flaunting it? Maybe! Maybe she’s not going about it the right way, but I do feel like this is authentic. She finally found what she needs: safe, sexy and seen.” I’ll say.

Is there an EIGHTH heaven? If so, I am in it.
Suede shoes on the beach. Paper knickers. Throat-baring. And now, PINK HEART-SHAPED FAKE TATTOOS.
I am willing to sacrifice my occasional LEGS ladyboner for this panoply of riches. Because surely, Taylor’s is the only ladyboner still standing. If indeed, ladyboners actually stand. Do they? Next time I have one (cos these pictures aren’t giving me one, needless to say), I will check.
LEGS: I got bored with your legs. You knew this. I got annoyed with you when you cried reverse classism. You knew this. And so you took it to a whole new level. Just for me (because of course, you don’t really exist in Real Life. You are just the cipher for my various internet imaginings, like all other famous people. You are the imaginary inhabitants of my imaginary internet curiosity shop).
You got a PINK HEART-SHAPED FAKE TATTOO. And, in your new incarnation as the internet’s Cockwomble of Cringe, you wore it with pride. And sacrificed Wimbledon to do it!
Be still, my beating heart. (Because I think I might be hyperventilating. Someone pass me a brown paper bag).
Quick–someone ask his name! Does he respond to Reek?
SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEECH!
he certainly lost his wee wee
Hahahaha! Brilliant.
Birdix that is the funniest thing I’ve seen all day, thank you.
I am actually laughing so much at this point I’m crying – this whole ‘event’ is the best thing I have ever seen on the internet anywhere ever. Please God don’t let this ever stop…
You just won the inter webs!
You called it! Both the Hidds and TayTay seem determined to not only destroy any testosterone that he ever had and turn it into glitter, they have turned the disappearance of his junk into a national spectator sport. A spectator sport played with fake tattoos, staged photo ops and late nights of Hidds letting TayTay braid his hair.
I died. The best thing ever is a laugh on a monday morning.
Well look, turns out he’s Taylor’s unicorn prince after all!
Reek! Omggg Birdix, you are wicked! My hat’s off to you.
This comment is everything. Perfection Birdix.
One positive: He’s a sport for attending what looks like a 12 year-old’s swim party.
Apparently they both are 12.
Here is an entire package of brown paper bags. And a slice of poke cake with berries arranged as the US flag. Because that is what one eats on Independence Day. I suggest eating it after sliding down TayTay’s Taymerica water slide or jumping about in her bouncy castle.
Oh bloody hell! In all the hilarity, I forgot to say!
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY!
Thanks for the cake!
AMEN! The top is like a sign for the paps, to be visible in the crowd, like snipers target. These photos are like summer holiday camp, WTAF ?
No, I think she’s actually the one after a roll. One on Baywatch. The super hot lifeguard no?
Tom is just there for the wet t shirt contest. Keep it on Tom- no one wants to see it.
buahahaha.. *collect her self for a moment*
I keep refresh CB page and unpatienly waiting tiddle news.. and bwahaha.. seriously, matching temporary tattoo, i love ts .. bwahahaha how old are they?? 8??
Never stop tiddle, never stop .. I love it..
buahahaha.. *collect her self for a moment*
I keep refresh CB page and unpatienly waiting tiddle’s 4 july news.. and bwahaha.. seriously, matching temporary tattoo, i love ts .. bwahahaha how old are they?? 8??
Never stop tiddle, never stop .. I love it..
Ladyboners across the globe done been smashed to smithereens!
May day! May day!
There is a funny theory out there that they are filming a film clip for Tay’s new album (or a Lemonade style visual album). They’ve been all over the world and there were a few random celebrities at the party….. Perhaps!!!
The tshirt he is wearing adds to this theory.
She is due to drop an albun soon…. stay tuned.
i totally agree with the whole performance art aspect….or at least that’s what i keep saying to myself…please jesus.
I had the strangest dream, where the UK voted to leave the EU and where Tom Hiddleston was frolicking in the surf with Taylor Swift. As if….
“Tom wore a “I HEART T.S.” t-shirt”
full on troll mode.
all of this cant be happening.
Yeah it is! And it’s hilarious!
someone, anyone, please make this go away
Ha! I actually didn’t even notice that when I scanned the pictures. But isn’t it possible he’s being literary? Declaring his love of T.S. Eliot?
Hehe. .my first thought was it stands for ‘I Love This Sh#t’..alluding to the swift-life…
For Tom, who is at the sea in Rhode Island (from The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock – Tom is a bit Prufrockian these days I think) —–
Shall I part my hair behind? Do I dare eat a peach?
I shall wear white flannel trousers, and walk upon the beach.
I have heard the mermaids singing, each to each.
I do not think that they will sing to me.
I have seen them riding seaward on the waves
Combing the white hair of the waves blown back
When the wind blows the water white and black.
We have lingered in the chambers of the sea
By sea-girls wreathed with seaweed red and brown
Till human voices wake us, and we drown.
Cecilia –
Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.
Cecilia, I think I love you.
[insert Tyra Banks “Tiffany, we were all rooting for you” gif here]
OhDear, you are hilarious. thank you!!!
That’s the part I legit don’t understand. Why troll paps you called yourselves??
About six years ago, when I was still teaching third grade (8-9yr. olds), a group of 6 girls came to class wearing “I ❤️ Taylor Swift” T-shirts that they had made in advance of going to her concert.
Congrats Tom – you are officially on par with a Third grade girl lol
Maybe when he met with Barbara Broccoli she told him
“You know, Tom, dear. We’ve been hoping to expand the audience for the Bond franchise. We really think the best way to go here is to try to capture the eight to eleven year old girl demographic – we think they could be big fans of the franchise. You would be an amazing Bond, Tom, but we just don’t see you as having appeal to that demographic. Sorry.” So Tom immediately went and figured out how he could increase his popularity among eight to eleven year olds….and the rest is history. /s
Don’t forget the pink heart tattoo 😂😂😂😂 I know I am waking and baking this morning, but daaaammm I had to look three times to make sure I was actually seeing what I thought I was seeing! 😂😂😂😂😂. Happy 4th Everyone!
I actually looked at the pics and thought preggo TS
Then i realised that I had been utterly Romance novel captivated
If she is pregnant and showing, there is no way that it is his unless they been messing around longer than we all know. We’re gonna need a DNA Maury! Is it wrong that I would be praying to hear “You are not the father!” directed at BOTH Tom and Calvin. That would be ninth heaven Sixer!
On a serious note: Dude does not look like he is camera ready for Ragnarok to me. He looks like he’s seriously out of leather costume shape. Thomas, maybe you should have been in the gym instead of Taylor’s jet.
Come on now, this is insane. “I Heart TS”??? What is he thinking? He’s a grown man. How can he possibly hope to be taken seriously after this?
He’s never done it for me, but I can’t stop watching this unfold.
yeah its a like a terrible accident. morally its wrong to look from the sidelines, we should make space for the helpers but i cant take my eyes of it.
He’s obviously trolling the likes of you.
When I started going out with my now husband, he once painted his nails red (without me asking) when some übermacho colegue of his was up in arms over my support for LGBT people. That’s what trolls do. They go in overmode for their loved ones and laught at the hatered.
Er. What?
Your husband sounds like a great guy but Tom is only trolling himself at this point.
You nailed it, Crox. Also, your husband sounds like a great person!
@Dani2: simultaneous praise for an unknown husband. 🙂
I still think he is trolling the paps / stans with the t-shirt…
@Dani2: If his PR team is so alert as people here usually claim they are (and hers as well), then by now he has to be aware of the situation on gossip sites. He’s obviously not bothered, even better, commenters just love to point out how he’s making it worse. He obviously doesn’t care what Daily Mail readers and their like think (if he did, he would try to keep this more private this weekend) or he is even actively trolling (which I believe he is; he’s rubbing it in and I think it’s hilarious).
@Elisa: He is indeed.
@Elisa High five 🙂 Yeah that’s his intention but the way this relationship has panned out so publicly in such a short amount of time makes him the butt of his own joke lol. I love this relationship because of how it’s really reiterated just how much of a try hard Tom is lol, he’s always been this exact person that’s been portrayed in the last few weeks.
@Crox oh of course he and his team are aware lol, that has been a given in from the get go. My point is that the joke is on him (and the fans who believe Taylor has “changed” their guy) because although he may think he’s trolling the fans and the paps by showing he doesn’t care, he obviously cares a ton that the public is constantly aware of his new relationship. He cares a LOT lol and he has never had any interest in keeping this relationship quiet. I’m not mad at it either, it’s super entertaining watching his diehard fans act like he wasn’t always an attention whore.
He’s definitely been trolling, but how much of it is trolling? Dragging his mom and niece out for a pap stroll? The romance scenes that seem to be stolen from Nicholas Sparks? All of it? And to what end?
Either way, I’m starting to think I should’ve sold that Loki painting while Tom still had a career. Now I don’t know who will buy it. I should’ve painted Thor instead…
My view of it is this: He really hasn’t done anything wrong. He’s dating an accomplished, wealthy, young and very pretty woman.
If the relationship wasn’t outed by them, they would either have to stay indoors (a figure of speech in this case) or the relationship would have been outed pretty soon by others (this is a public beach, for example), in which case they would not be able to control the pics. Celebrities do it all the time and I see no problem in that.
And now he went up to 11 with it. Which I think is great. I went to see the Daily Mail article and the hatred is unbelievable. And yet, when the Monkey Movie comes out, or Thor 3, how many of those do you think will say “I’m not watching this ONLY because Hiddleston is such a fame*****”.” Not that many, trust me. Wife-beaters and child molesters don’t necessarily see declines in their careers, so a guy wearing a silly and non-offensive shirt won’t either. And the angry part of his previously devoted internet fans isn’t that big either; if it were, his “solo” movies wouldn’t have tanked.
My point is: He looses nothing with this. But he gains a lot. And he is basicly giving us what he is supposed to: entertainment.
@Crocuta, come sit over here safely out of the way and have a mimosa
@crocuta
I suppose we won’t know how he makes it out until the dust settles, but I’m inclined to disagree that he gained anything but attention.
I couldn’t give one of Sixlet Minor’s (very) smelly socks whether it’s true love or a contract, who is trolling who, or what they do when the cameras are not about.
Just so long as they carry on with The Great Tiddlesbanging of 2016 up until the point I just cannot laugh any more. At that point, they can stop if they like or carry on if they like. Well, no, actually they can’t. They’ll have to wait until some new and equal internet joyful hilarity comes along. THEN, they can do what they like.
He isn’t trolling. This is who he is.. He was trolling y’all when he pretended to be a serious thespian who wanted to his private life to be private 😂
@Chels, he is STILL a serious thespian. The two parts are not mutually exclusive. Serious, MARRIED thespian Richard Burton hooked up with Elizabeth Taylor and decades later, he is still considered a serious thespian.
Sixer and Chels,
Lol, true…
@lilacflowers:
Umm, I don’t know that much about Hiddleston but I do know that careerwise, he’s at the bottom of the list of British dudes who have a career in British and American cinema. He’s behind Fassbender, Redmayne, Cumberbatch etc. When I tried to gossip about Taylor and Tom to my English friends, they don’t know him by name but they do know he’s Loki (and the Night Manager also helped with my older friends) but he’s still internet famous mostly. If you don’t have name recognition yet despite having a franchise under your belt, then you’re doing something wrong. Chris Hemsworth, less talented, was able to capitalize on his franchise.
Don’t compare Tom to an icon like Burton who not only had a great career but oozed sex appeal and would never be as juvenile and thirsty for attention like Tom. Elizabeth and him were also passionate (and violent) and were interesting just to think about (2 intense people coming together), they wouldn’t need photoshoots frolicking on the beach. Taylor and Tom are two pieces of stale bread with cream cheese inbetween, nothing would help to convince their audience they are a ‘hot powercouple’. They are just not titillating in the least, they would never ooze the Hollywood glamour and passion like Burton and Taylor did.
If Tom wants that type of legacy, he’s got a long way to go. He’s just too immature and a playboy to do that to be honest. Richard and Elizabeth were also equals (see also Brangelina), Tom is always trying to find a woman more famous than him to latch onto and he finally found his (immature) match but careerwise they don’t fit.
I’m with Lilac on this. Still thespian who loves to play in blockbusters as well. And on a personal level, Taylor too is his blockbuster after a few thespians.
The fact that they decided not to cave in to gossip site bullies (Daily Mail is truly vile to them) and went in full speed actually makes me salute them.
@Crocuta He has done nothing wrong by dating an accomplished young woman? You’re talking too much sense, my friend. So much sense.
Darn, I see I’m accidentally posting under two different names: Crocuta ad Crox are the same person, sorry for this. It was supposed to be just the new one (don’t like the old one anymore) but cookies did their bit of trolling.
@Artemis: Are they supposed to be a power couple? I never got that impression from them. Sure the media would love that, they need rumours, but it takes more than two vacations to make that work.
And Hemsworth was not able to capitalise on his franchise. His movies are tanking (just like Tom’s).
I’m sorry but you can’t compare these two to Taylor and Burton. They’re both talented and successful, but just no.
Liz & Richard were both famous actors when when they got together, iirc they had an affair while making Cleopatra. Film and media were also completely different back then.
They didn’t set up pap pics to the highest bidder either.
@Artemis, whether your friends know who he is or not does not determine whether someone is a serious actor. I’m not the first to compare his skills to Burton either, the British theater critics have done. And you and others are clearly missing my point, which was “serious actor,” not “well-known.”
And sorry, but I take absolutely nothing about Cumberbatch seriously.
Likacflowers, each to their own. I prefer Cumberbatch as an actor, just don’t think he’s much to look at so I’m not really interested in his private life.
I think Tom is a great actor too and I’ve enjoyed his work, but this whole, very public whatever it is has turned me off. I can’t take him seriously now.
Those staged pics with his mum did it for me.
Burton is as weird a comparison as i have ever seen. He had a very masculine energy and was a difficult character from what i have seen in movies and read about him. Hiddleston seems the complete opposite, twee and eager to please.
He might well hang on to a thespian reputation stateside but in the snobby world of Britisher theatre? I’m afraid he’s shot that bolt. Which, I’m sure, he knows perfectly well. His sights have always been set elsewhere really, haven’t they? He’s always aggressively promoted his branding for an American audience. Not being an American audience, I wouldn’t have the faintest whether The Glorious Tiddlesbanging will be a help or a hindrance. But you can’t wear a pink heart of a fake tattoo and frolic on beaches with poplets and maintain your serious actor status here in classist Britland. It’s just not RSC or BBC, darling.
You CAN do things like being an obnoxious drunk, a la Burton or many others. You can’t wear pink tattoos because you’re in love like Hallmark. So downmarket. Nuh uh.
Wonder if they enjoyed wine with all that cheese?
Also, her top could have some padding. Not sure she did anything surgical yet.
Whatever it is, it certainly looks fake. What a sad arrested development woman.
Did someone say Arrested Development?
“She sometimes takes a little pack of mayonnaise, and she’ll squirt it in her mouth all over, and then she’ll take an egg and kind of… Mmmm! She calls it a ‘mayonegg.’ Are you okay?”
She has DEFINITELY had a boob job. These pics are not Exhibit A, there are countless before and after red carpet looks where it’s obvious (and it ain’t padding).
Well, Tom is well known for being a BOOB man. Perhaps this is a change she made for him.
What I love about this is that it followed hiddles’ night manager promotion where he kept going on about how closed off and personal he is.
Shyeah…
Yes and how he says he doesn’t worry about what people think of him. Right. Then don’t crave attention like a starving man! Because this attention is going to send you right to “who is that guy” oblivion.
I can only imagine that this is all actually an elaborate piece of performance art 😀
The best thing would be if Tommy now pulls a Cumberbatch and and holds up a sign with “Go photograph Syria” on it.
Maybe it’s like Invasion of the Bodysnatchers; Tom’s personality has been hijacked by a talent contest boy band member (“New Erec@tion”?).
They HAVE to be effing with us.
Right? Like cackling and tossing back cocktails as they watch the media scramble? But to what end? Because this is over-the-top even for two people whose constant is over-the-top.
(And until this tank top, I was quietly rooting for them to be real like GNAT. But now it feels like full-blown performance art. Unless… this IS what “finding the one” actually looks like for both of them. In which case, I can’t wait to see years of this. I hope the public never loses interest.)
They have to be effing with us for real. Like I can’t even, I just can’t.
Are you saying the Tay Tay Tatoo isn’t REAL??
This would be heresy, right, GNAT? Who in the world doesn’t believe in the glory of TIDDLES?
@GNAT, sadly, it was running down his arm in some of the pictures.
If Jason Mitchell couldn’t convince him to get a Kong tattoo, I think Tom is going to remain un-inked.
Wait, what? Are you saying his fake tattoo does crying too?
I think I shall retire to my sitting room sofa and lie down. Maybe call for some strengthening tea, or vodka. I wish I had a burst bubble emoticon because I would paste it on here three times for emphasis. Happy Fourth of July, bubble bursters.
@GNAT, sending you a tea-tini, iced tea with orange vodka.
@Sixer, yes, pretty pink running streamers when wet accentuate the biceps.
That is officially the best fake tattoo in the history of fake tattoos.
Tommy’s crying tat is better than the twee tank…
That T-shirt is really selling his James Bond campaign.
😂😂😂
This has to be some kind of Joaquin Phoenix, art installation level trolling. I just can not believe he would actually wear a shirt with “I heart T.S.” on it without it being a joke. This can’t be real. I wasn’t even that much of a fan to follow him like some, but this is too much.
This has got to be a set-up. I was already suspicious when the “throw your head and laugh” pic came out, but I just can’t believe they can be this ridiculous and it be serious ( whether a legit relationship or pure pr arrangement).
They are giving me life!!! Thank you!! The collective Internet freakout over these two dorks is a thing of beauty!!!
BTW I just watched The Night Manager and while I think he’s a good actor I still continue to not get what all the fuss is about.
They are both emotionally 15 year old girls and I am now convinced they are acting up for even more attention. Someone ground the pair of them.
Or they can just be two emotionally 15 year old girls in love:)
I love this! They are sweet together and wow, she has an amazing body. Lucky boy. Lucky girl.
I hope Tiddles never end, this is so hilarious:)
Yep, they def keep me entertained! And his t-shirt is indeed hilarious. 🙂
And there is MOAR. (I say MOAR in honour of Nutballs, who should hurry up and come back).
Axe murderers in the family! Thank you for this, Daily Fail. I really now cannot breathe at all.
I read that yesterday and imagined your glorious reaction
I mean, that’s practically Lord Lucan. SO much better’n Richard III being dug up from a car park and being your eleventy billionth great uncle. Take that, Benny!
Yes, MOAR cringe! MOAR trolling! MOAR teen-y tees! MOAR love tats!
This is like some high school beach party and first love for a 16 y/o.. He’s surpassed Tom Cruise’s couch jumping I think. I’d love to be a fly on the wall to hear his “grown up ” friends talking about this.
At least Cruise has the excuse of being brainwashed by a cult, what’s Loki’s?
Loki’s sex life was pretty weird, I mean how did the giantess look like if their kids were a serpent, a wolf and a half-corpse? Not to mention he got himself loved up by a superstallion. Taylor Swift is a relaxation for him, really.
This comment is hilarious and so on point! I hadn’t thought about it like that but Tiddles has for sure reached couch jumping levels. I can’t believe a man who proclaimed his love of privacy recently is behaving like this.
I realize that some people think Tiddles is sincere but really what grown man wears a t-shirt proclaiming his love for his girlfriend? It is just to juvenile and ridiculous to be real.
However, you can’t say this isn’t entertaining. I cannot wait to see what they do next! Can you imaging what their Valentine’s day would be like? Rented swans? Serenades? Will he recite her a poem he has written? Send a thousand roses? This is romance performance art and I love it!
The worst part is, that all of the new people who now know who Tom Hiddleston is, just know him as an object of ridicule and not for his talent. *slow golf clap* You’ve finally made it Tommyboy. Insert Mary Tyler Moore spinning gleefully.
P.S Is it truly awful of me to wish he got a wicked sunburn in the shape of that wifebeater outline.
Yes. But understandable.
The gift that keeps on giving! The swimsuit is cute and to be honest her first boob job was bad, so maybe she went up a size but she also fixed it? (if there’s such thing).
I think the tattoos and tshirts are an inside joke poking fun at the media. As in they are banding together.
Guys, is this the long haul? I thought for sure this was hilarity and fizzle. Taytay is looking for someone to lockdown though.
Also, totally notice te implant size increase too. Girl you are stupid skinny, it’s ok to be flatter chested.
This is part of what screws up girls ideas of what a normal or even aspirational body should look like.
“Taytay is looking for someone to lockdown though ” why do you think that? nothing in her real life outside of her songs hints at anything like that. she ruled out having children too but people still bring up a pregnancy.
Ahem, I know because I am bestest of friends with Taytay (hence the pet name).
Ahahahahah omg no. I wish.
Anyhow I’m just guessing because all the leaks to the media with Calvin Harris.
He didn’t want to settle down, I get the feeling that’s the long and short of their breakup. She wanted marriage and he wanted to visit massage parlours and hangout with hot non-celebs.
Then she gets The Prize, someone who is more famous, taller and thirstier. She can stick it to Harris, who didn’t want to commit and even better, Tom seems to be all in. She’s gonna ride this lanky pony into the sunset if she can all the while rubbing it in Harris’ face.
It’s pretty excellent.
Oh he is definitely trolling. He knows the paps have been called in and that E! Will have its feature. He wants the attention. And yes, he has been a thirteen year old girl all along.
Selena Gomez: there is a rumour that she is now dating Calvin apparently
Oooooh so thats why Karly is back. Selena is no longer working out as BFF? Was she secretly hitting on Harris behind Taytays back? Oh man, her private life is probably even better than what we assume.
My guess is like days of our lives set in clone high.
I think Selena and Taylor are still tight. Selena’s on tour right now though.
fans supposedly saw Selena there, she just didn’t go out to the water.
Yes, I think it’s them cocking a snoot at the media and the internet noise!
Which does suggest that it’s real and here to stay.
Cocking a snoot!
I am not 100% sure what this means, but I love it.
Explain, pretty please, so I can have more slang to use?
@detritus – it should be ‘cocking a snook’, not snoot (me in a hurry!).
It basically means showing contempt or disdain for something. Little bit more on it here – http://www.phrases.org.uk/meanings/cock-a-snook.html
I completly agree
They said she wanted Calvin to lock her down too and he was given the boot and replaced in less than a week.
She doesn’t want to be locked down. She’s having fun.
What messes girls up is not women who get implants but other women who comment on them.
I think that being honest about them is one thing – and I especially don’t judge those who had to get mastectomies or had other issues and want something back. Or even those who just wanted bigger cans.
I do have a big problem with pretending that large breasts are natural on very slender frames though. It happens in the wild sometimes, but its like a unicorn.
If she was open about her tit-job ala Cuoco I would have zero problems.
As for the fun and not getting serious – I would absolutely love if that’s what Taytay was doing. In fact, I think it is what she should be doing . That just doesn’t seem to be her MO, she seems to COMMIT.
detritus – but is she being dishonest? I don’t recall her saying a WORD about them. I don’t see her pretending it’s real – and I don’t expect everyone who has gone under the knife to declare they’ve done so.
I don’t think celebs owe it to us to come clean on stuff that they’re getting done – there’s a difference between someone who’s CONSTANTLY going on about never having work done but lying about it and someone who’s maybe had work done but isn’t talking about it at all.
Erinn – This is a very valid point.
I was thinking about this too – she doesn’t owe it to anyone to be a role model, nor has she flat out denied anything that I’ve heard about.
It’s also very possible they are just growing (hormonal BC, weight gain, etc, etc). I do not give Taytay the benefit of the doubt.
Tee issue I grapple with is the constant celebrity movement of what constitutes norm. Breast implants are probably the easiest target because of their immediate impact and they seem very much to cater to the male gaze. Nose jobs and veneers change perceptions too and I don’t hate on them as much, for no logical reason.
I would have way less issue too if it was just one celebrity.
It isn’t though, it’s Kate Hudson, Hayden Panettiere, Halle Berry and it seems a million more that don’t talk about it. It’s disingenuous that all of these women (and men) who get work done act as if it’s don’t as don’t tell. You have a huge platform and while it isn’t your obligation to act as a role model it still makes me incredibly sad.
It’s much easier for me to sass Taylor – who won’t ever read this – than it is to address the entire Hollywood community and the social structures that underlie their need to attain perfection regardless of the surgical cost.
At this moment TayTo are painting each others nails, and laughing at Cat videos on the internet.
Ma Hiddleston is on the phone to Eton, asking for her money back.
Pa Hiddleston, you mean. Ma is all in, remember?
I am rather surprised Karlie Kloss was at this party. I thought Taylor Swift and her had a falling out? Interesting
they read the comments saying that after the “kissing” pic of Taylor and Karlie she disappeard from her life. so they now need to bring her back into the pics.
I was surprised by that too, just the other day I saw some comments about how they had had some huge blowup and were no longer friends.
Karlie and Taylor saw each other at Coachella. Karlie ig’ed a photo of them with a bunch of other people. Lorde and Swift also saw each other at Coachella. Selena Gomez is on tour.
Taylor can be in your face annoying, though I think she’s met her match in Tom, *and* I think she’s pregnant, but I don’t think her friends have all run away.
Oh I love these two and their amazing torrential love. No other couple not even Tom Nicole and Brangelina have captured the nation’s imagination like these two have. I would give up my left breast to be a fly on the way and listen to their amazing philosophical and romantic conversations. 😘😘😘💓💓💓💓💓💞💚💞💞💞
A TINY TIDDLES TRAVELER’S SHANTY
Oh, I wish I had a pixie stick
I’d wave it in my hand
It would make the world see me
I would be a famous man.
Oh, I wish I had a fairy doll
It would hug me sort of tight
It would sing me songs of money
I would always be all right
Oh, I wish I had a golden arm
I’d shake and stir so hard
T’would make the planet love me
I would be a shooting star
Look! I won a sugar stick
Topped with golden fairy hair
Each splashy kiss makes dreams come true
But only if you stare!
(Chorus)
Brexit sent me on the run
Like a fox upon the field!
Dashed me on the diamond cliffs
now my dazzlin’ Fate is sealed!
Liberty that is so, so beautiful, it would bring a tear to a glass eye.
Great! A theme song! Tiddles 4evah!
Liberty, you are a queen among women.
But only if you stare – BRAVA!
Hi darlings! Sorry, was briefly busy watching my husband draw my face on his forearm.
Happy TS DAY!
I read that and I saw Leprechauns and a shower of golden stars. Happy Independence day you lot, between us we have no excuse for these two at all..
This is beautiful
Dear Liberty, this is golden prose, truly one of your best to date. You never disappoint!
Happy 4th of Joolai to all CBers, even those not in ‘murica!
This was a beautiful piece of poetry. Liberty. Bravo!
I have been following this story as though I was hypnotized cow. At first I was all “Ha ha, he’s developed mad cow disease.” Now I am starting to think he ACTUALLY has developed mad cow disease, or some other form of mental impairment. In which case, damnnnn… & :
Exactly. Brain tumor.
There is no other explanation.
alternatively, he’s just a mad cow…
“as though I was hypnotized cow”
*dead* 🙂
Hahaha. All of you guys are killing me with the comments, and have been for the past few weeks. This really is the best gossip evah! Please keep it coming Tiddles!
My money is on some rare brain parasite he picked up while he was traipsing through all those tropical jungles during Monkey Movie filming.
“Tom wore a “I HEART T.S.” t-shirt. ”
I can’t stop laughing. Is he 12 ? This just gets more and more cringeworthy.
I’m betting someone got him tha t-shirt as a joke & 12 year old Tom loved it, did his dancing bear and wore it with pride. He is showing her he is in this for real.
It’s great that she can be herself with him but it looks like he is changing himself to be her dream man. That lifestyle must really appeal to him despite how out of place he looks in it to me. Still I guess he still has time to make Wimbledon.
Awwww, the kids look happy.
If only they had invited Reese’s giant beach ball…
Aw, the favorite part of the photos for me is blake lively posing for beach photos with mascara smeared all over her face while standing next to models. Did nobody tell her?
Tiddler isn’t bothering me as much as everyone else.
Apparently not even her husband thought to clue her in
I find it oddly endearing. The only thing I’ve ever had in common with Blake Lively is that I have also gone swimming forgetting that I was wearing non waterproof mascara
I found it endearing also. I am so not a Blake Lively fan but her posing pregnant next to those models with her “Oakland booty” was awesome. I also love the pics of RR holding her in the water. Those two still actually seem quite smitten with each other.
And half her nip out… Never seen an unflattering pic of Blake before. Sounds mean-girly but it makes me kind of happy to see her like this. Thankfully I have good mascara but am prone to the usual bikini bottom ass crack and white suncream stripes in the face 😛
Her and Ryan Reynolds seem like an awfully cute couple. Kinda nice to see her looking like a commoner for once!
Not just the mascara….one of the boobs was out of control. I felt sorry for her. She was surrounded by mean girls. No one gave her a hint. Hey, Blake, your nip is showing!
Haha. That was the first thing I noticed, too. Oops!
wonderful, imo they found each other. they’re both desperate for attention, so i would imagine this is heaven to them.
Oh, SIXER. Perfection. I really think he is doing it all for you, too. And, well, to be safe, sexy, and SEEN.
I cannot help imagine that their new mansion, set up on rolling acres of discarded squad members, will be called COCKWOMBLE ESTATE in honor of Sixer.
And if they are into baiting the media (as that I heart TS shirt is a part of), what should they do next?
Honestly. He is doing it just for me. There can be no other explanation.
TS = The Sixer.
There is a photo of him climbing the rocks on the beach way ahead of her. 35-year man with a heart on his undershirt, and a very quickly disappearing hairline. Oh, how the mighty have fallen!
Yes! He’s wearing a t-shirt dedicated to MEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Excuse me, twilly, he practically scaled Everest there. And he didn’t even need Sherpa Tensing.
I can’t believe she’s showing her belly button. Also, she definitely got bigger implants, plus gained a little weight.
Is she now actually trying to morph her body according to Tom’s preferences? It’s too much of a coincidence for me that a normally skinny, flat chested Swift is just now putting on weight and getting a sizable rack.
Leo, that thought crossed my mind too.
She’s obviously put on some weight and had an enhancement in the last 2 months.
buy guys, TS eliot is amazing and worthy of our pink hearts
Of course !
THANK YOU for the clarification 🙂
It just gets better and better. And t.s. eliot was a notorious cat lover of course.
Where are Taylor’s cute bodyguards? Sigh, I missed them, they are the hottest part of TnT photos.
Yes!, I want a pic of the bodyguards, also.
I can’t believe the jaded attitudes here. Lol
My breasts got bigger at her age because I went on the pill, and they stayed bigger. Just sayin.
Mine got bigger after I had a premature menopause due to chemotherapy. I think the universe was trying to give me a consolation prize or something but I just got annoyed cos I had to start wearing a bra. They are horrible contraptions.
I distinctly remember my first bra. My mom helped me put it on and I said, “something’s wrong, it awful and uncomfortable,” and she said, “oh, good, it fits.” 😡
I feel like that to this day! The bra is an evil invention.
The Germans get it right; I believe a bra there is a “bustenhalter”.
I had a similar experience…but Taylor looks like she went up at least a cup in about a week or two.
I went from a D to a double D within 2 weeks of a new birth control pill (36D to 36DD). It is possible she is on the pill which would also explain the slight weight gain too.
Getting implants is no small deal, even if you already had some in. Recovery time is NOT days and there is so much after care. (Special support bra, massage to settle them, pain from surgery, grogginess from anaesthesia) Taylor hasn’t been out of our sight long enough in the last few months to have new breasts.
The pill though can be miraculous – a friend went from a B to a D as a teenager in a matter of weeks the stretch marks were really bad the poor thing!
They reached a point when I feel sorry for Tom’s exes. It must be embarrassing to be the girl who dated a man, who is running around in a “I ❤ t s ” shirt.
I saw his ex (the one who was mistakenly reported as his wife and caused the fandom meltdown) in a couple of plays last year, she’s living her best life and hopefully laughing about all of this with some wine.
Why would you feel embarrassed for them? I’m sure he’s not a thought on their minds and vice versa.
i can’t….
STOP IT!
How is this even real?!?
New implants.
Also, this nonsense has killed any attraction I had for him.
FFS…what’s next? Tay-Tay and Company sitting at the campfire making s’mores and her playing the guitar singing?
I think it’s more interesting to note who was missing and who has found the golden ticket in their chocolate.
BLAKE LIVELY + HUBBY: after publicly praising Taylor Swift, I guess she managed to score her plus one invitation.
RUBY ROSE: interesting choice. She’s hip and cool, she has found a relatively important fame in the US after OITNB but she still is no household name.
UZO ADUBA: As in: someone needs to get someone black here. By the way, she’s by far the coolest of the group.
GIGI HADID + KARLIE KLOSS: ***the threesome is reunited***
Nowhere to be found: LORDE, LENA DUNHAM, SELENA GOMEZ. Discuss.
Also noticed Gigi & Kloss boyfriends are not with them, clever guys
True, and Karlie’s boyfriend is actually almost NEVER photographed with her.
She also never talks about him/her love life in her interviews, nor on her Youtube channel.
Karlie’s boyfriend was there. There are pics of them on rocks talking to each other.
Zayn is probably there and inside the house or he and Gigi are on a break again.
Taylor has known Uzo a while. She invited her to sing on stage during her tour last year.
Don’t let the facts get in the way of you race baiting, though.
Since it is eid around this time he might be with his family. Zayn as in.
Just a theory, but if this relationship between Taylor and Tom is fake. Maybe the women who did not attend are not willing to put up with circus or pretend “Tiddles” is real?
Lorde and Lena Dunham are not ones to put up with bs, so I can see them saying ” I have plans that weekend” rather than smile and grit their teeth.
As for Selena, her and Taylor have been estranged in the past when she was with Justin Beiber. So I tend to think their friendship is not as close as they make it out to be. Tiddles was at a Selena concert recently I believe, so it is possible she could not come because of the tour.
Since Lena dared to say that she felt uncomfortable strutting with supermodels on the catwalk during Taylor’s concerts, she has largely been absent from the squad activities. I still think she’s friend with Taylor but they hang out on their own I guess.
Lorde and Selena both strike me as real, authentic friendships but they were never put out as PR for the award shows, at least not together with the model clique.
Celebrities care about fame so they latch on to people who are as famous or more famous than they are. It’s always been this way.
As far as needing a black person there. In RI of all places? That’s where people would expect to see diversity?
Uzo has performed on stage with Taylor and is friends with Ruby. There is no tokenism going on here.
I am black and from RI. There aren’t many of us (I was the only black person in my high school) but it is really diverse in Providence. Thank you for mentioning that Taylor and Uzo have known each a while. I swear some commenters reach for things that aren’t there.
I feel like he wore that shirt to mock the public, but why? They earned that mocking by being so public. They would not get this much criticism if they dated quietly. They are sooooo courageous and witty for putting up with the mocking (eye roll).
I want to say I hope she’s pregnant, but I just love that Karlie’s back. Maybe seeing Cara Delavigne and Ruby Rose with their girlfriends will encourage the girls to find their way back together. They were the only relationship of Taylor’s that I’ve ever believed was real.
I saw this on the Daily Mail website before 9am this morning (UK time) and frankly I have been itching for the post and the ensuing comments ever since.
I woke up wondering if we would have new pics of Tiddles, and here we are! They delivered a plenty for all of us on the sidelines munching popcorn and tossing back adult beverages. I really hope this continues all summer — prayer to the gossip gods!
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/07/04/tom-hiddlestons-i-heart-taylor-swift-shirt-prompts-ridicule-and/
Even the Daily Telegraph is taking the piss 🙂
‘Going forward, I kind of want Tom Hiddleston to wear that I Heart TS shirt every single day, including in-character filming Thor 3.’
he should make it a staple to his wardrobe.
“Marching purposefully through the sea.” AHAHAHAHA!!!
Even if he is trolling with that shirt, those photos are going to live forever. Someday I think he’s going to majorly regret it.
Apparently, Thomas is a himbo.
i guess he wants to take this to a meta level but does not understand its backfiring.
He surpassed Tom Cruise jumping the couch that for sure
Nah, nothing surpasses that lol
I’m fully on board the Tiddles train now. I want them to get married and have 10,000 babies.
Tiddle-tots! (In an Oprah voice) “YOU get one, and YOU get one, and YOU get one….”
I love how this is driving everyone crazy.
When Taylor and Calvin first broke up people were cackling, saying she couldn’t keep a man, she wanted babies, etc. And then she steps out with Tom and no one knows what to say now.
I thought this generation was all about feminism. Taylor saw the writing on the wall and dropped Calvin and moved on. Good for her.
I think people just want this to be PR because they don’t understand that men will be men and no man is turning down an attractive, young, and independently wealthy woman.
I would just love it they were doing one big send up.
I mean, to be fair she cheated on Calvin so that sucks. Unless you, like me, believe that this is for PR and nothing else.
Also, Taylor isn’t a feminist. Her understanding of it is the equivalent of getting a C- in Into to Women’s Studies Freshman year.
I think you’re misreading the tone of the comments. No one here is upset. We’re merrily munching our popcorn.
Seconded. This whole thing is just too silly to take seriously. I’m not behind this relationship (because it’s fake), but I am enjoying it, nonetheless.
I was going to make a serious post about Tom being dragged in the press, why is he doing this ruining his rep amongst his peers and amongst his fanbase, unless he really is that clueless, how I always thought he was thirsty etc, etc
But it’s honestly just too funny and entertaining at this point.
It is definitely not to take seriously. Look at the photos and giggle.
This holiday beach party actually exceeded my expectations. I expected a retro swimsuit show, but the heart tank and matching runny temporary tattoo are just a step beyond.
Free to be TWEE!
Agreed most of us are enjoying the spectacle. It won’t end well either and I’ll be here yet again laughing hysterically
Tommy’s fans believe it’s PR because they are unfamiliar with Swifty’s MO. Her fans are mainly young girls and need to be lead into knowing exactly who her breakup songs are about. So she usually announces her new relationship with a pap walk or spread by her choosen pap and tabloid (US mag).
Then she gets step by step dating pics. After the breakup she writes songs that refer to the pap pics and spells out the BF’s name in her song book. So her fans follow along. Same formula, different boyfriend. I think she was hurt by knowing over time Calvin was really not that into her. She tried last minute efforts to looking sexy but failed. Then she lined up Tommy boy as her jump-off.
The marketing/PR aspect is really all that interests me. Does she plan to hang on to her young pre-teen market until she’s 40? Will she be a sort of Baby Jane?
I thought she’d been trying to switch gears the past year or two, but this is right back to the old playbook.
Feminism has to do with equality or to put it more bluntly equal pay. People as a whole need to stop throwing that word out any time women don’t back another woman up.
As for this topic of these two. Taylor’s “dating” past speaks for itself as do her songs. Tom, a grown ass man, seems to forget his age. So the rest of us who aren’t puttin on airs are sitting back and laughing at this spectacle simply because we can.
So the only thing that’s important about feminism is equal pay? Wow!
I’m not sure if I follow how talking about this relationship is not feminist?
No one’s calling her a hussy, or saying her biscuit needs a rest, or that Tom is TOO COOL for her or some other foolery. Me bitching about her fakies is probably the least feminist thing I’ve seen on this particular set of comments.
Most people seem to be jocularly calling out the extreme tweeness of this relationship’s opening PR salvo.
Well, reading the response of one person on here, if you have uterus you may not talk ill of any other woman. A uterus must support a uterus without question. IMO a lot of women in this generation (Taylor’s age) need to go read the Feminine Mystique before they can start to use the word feminism.
On a more lighter note, have tacky inflatable pool toys made an appearance yet? I feel like this isn’t complete until a swan or two show up.
M.A.F. – It’s true. I support a lot of women’s choices. Especially when it comes to their bodies, ones I don’t even necessarily agree with on a personal level (not always tho – see aforementioned bitchiness regarding taylor’s great body and her modding it more). That doesn’t mean I have to support their every decision. I definitely don’t have to agree with all women as a monolith, because that monolith doesn’t exist. TBH I haven’t read Feminine Mystique, and I need to. Please peer pressure me so I have some added impetus.
I think, maybe, some posters are worried that the common narrative of ‘woman can’t keep a man, always looking to lock one down and get all babied up’ is not in jest. I’d get riled about that too. No one’s gonna tell me to settle down and breed just because I’m a woman of a certain age.
As to the floaty pool bits, can it be a golden goose? or a shark? Or does a pure white swan reflect their love more truely?
Or a water trampoline with bubble blowing?
@Detritus- I read the Feminine Mystique in college. It boils down to this: equality across the board- in the work place, at home, etc. As for can’t keep a man talk- those of us who are older, have seen her do this time and time again. Nothing wrong with being in love for love but as some point, you have got to figure your s**t out; not everything in life is a song.
As for the inflatables- ANY type of inflatable will do. As long as there are sparklers galore.
I believe already! Tom looks extremely permanent vacation happy. I wonder if she is too? I guess if she goes to AU I will think it’s equal. Songwriters can write anywhere right? Like Loki he seems to be shape shifting into Taylor’s perfect man, Speaking of Loki?
Don’t give in, Cakes. It’s what they want. Don’t give them what they want!!
It’s official. This is a ‘dear Jackie’ romance.
She’s gained weight in the tummy area, not just the (new, fake) booby area.
Pregnant……
(To be fair, she’s clearly just gained weight all over but WHAT IF SHE WAS PREGNANT?!)
Pregnant doesn’t fit with her brand.
Pregnant would also mean she’d have to have actual sex. She’s so asexual, I can’t make sense of that possibility in my head.
She’s not pregnant. She’s not on tour and she’s eating well. She’s still thin.
She IS pregnant. It’s not such visible because it’s only 9 weeks and she’s naturally very thin.
That’s why Blake Lively is there.
Pregnancy buddies!
She’s not pregnant. Have you ever been thin and pregnant? She has a little bloat. But I’ll leave you to your pregnancy conspiracy. Hope the kid is cute.
I think she’s pregnant! I HAVE been thin and pregnant! I have Taylor’s body type- I’m 5’10 size zero- I’ve had two babies… This is what I looked like in early pregnancy with both of my kids… The early pregnancy bloat, larger breasts…
I have also been thin and pregnant. Also 5’10”. I’d be delighted to be as thin now as I was when I was pregnant. I’m not convinced that Taylor is, but I can hope…
Yeap, she has gained more weight in the tummy area.
I looked back at some pics Tom a few months ago, and she’s put on weight all over. In one pic she has more weight on her face.
Right? Maybe the new boobs are PREGNANT BOOBS
I think its pretty unlikely, but stranger things have happened.
No….. She was this size before and got super skinny. She’s just comfortable in her new relationship and not working out as much. I vote not pregnant, not PR relationship, and I think they’re gonna get married.
Did none of these people grow up near a beach? Those are waves, people! You don’t just stand there, you dive in and ride it.
I suspect Tom is trying to hide in a closet or bathroom this morning, trying to watch Wimbledon on his phone
I am begging for anyone to hook me up with the Hiddles version of the Cumberbatch blackmail/fake baby conspiracy theorists. They have to be out there somewhere.
Try IMDB. He’s gay and she’s his beard because a woman much more wealthy and famous would do that for a random dude she just met … because reasons. And they even have a logical explanation for her possible pregnancy (yea, right) that does not include them making love.
I think one DM commentator was actually wondering if he’s blackmailing her, but nobody picked that nonsense up and it got buried under 3.000 comments.
This relationship is every gossip newspaper’s dream.
I am from Rhode Island and I have never seen it mentioned this much in my almost 40 years on this earth. So, ummm, no thank you to Tiddles for the amount of traffic my family now encounters due to all the attention in our small state.
However, I absolutely love all of this. I was wondering if Celebitchy was going to do a story because I’ve been a believer in their story but I didn’t get the impression that everyone else here was. People are losing it over on DM which over 2300 comments already. I don’t think I’ve ever seen an article with that many comments.
I personally think this is real and we are seeing two dorks who’ve finally found each acting it out in a friendly public way. Love live TayTo!
There aren’t many believers. There is a lot of denial, like the Cumberbatch situation.
When I saw them dancing I said they would go perfectly together because they’re both so safe and moderately bland. It makes sense. She and Calvin never made sense. If anything that screamed PR.
Tom is a respected actor (I guess; I don’t pay attention to him) but he wants to be a famous actor. Taylor will give anyone fame. He also seems to really like her and is enjoying himself.
After all of the breakups and Lemonade affairs, it’s nice to have a fun romance around, even if it’s cheesy.
@BFDL I totally agree with everything you’ve said. I mean, the Adam/Calvin relationship seemed more implausible. Didn’t he say in an interview that Taylor wasn’t his type??? I’m too lazy to look it up but I thought I read that here.
So, I have to ask: I’m in MD, and we are having very low temperatures for July. I believe we never went above 80 yesterday, and it’s even colder today. RI is even further north and your beaches aren’t exactly the warmest even in hotter weather…
Aren’t they all freezing to death?
There’s a video of the time they spent in the water, and the whole thing was no more than two minutes long. They stayed long enough to get a couple of group photos taken and then they all made a beeline back to the house.
If she wanted warm summer water plus a private beach, she could have bought a place way down the coast (say, NC or SC). I’m baffled that she spent so many millions on a home with a public beach.
But then again, that’s how you make it look as if your photo agency just “showed up”.
She tried to make it private but the community said no and she suffered a lot of backlash for it. Plus she didn’t buy it for a beach house she bought it because she doesn’t know a thing about appropriate boundaries
@Nicole – I remember the flak over the access gate, but what is it about boundaries?
This isn’t the same property she bought when chasing a Kennedy. I thought she bought it right after she sold the Hyannis place, and may have wanted it to appear she was merely investing in New England beach properties. After all, the narrative was, oh she’s not really stalking a teenager’s family, she’s a savvy real estate investor.
@Dara,
Oh, I see, thanks. Not invested enough to follow up outside of CB.
Still, I probably wouldn’t even THINK to try the beach with the weather we’re having: not only is it cold, but it’s drizzling on and off… We moved grilling to the 3rd and cancelled pool plans here…
I don’t know, that alone seems like a sure sign that this is all PR to me… How else would paparazzi get the pictures, if they all stay cooped up inside (I imagine there’s a fence, too, so being on the patio or in the yard wouldn’t make them visible, either)?
Yeah, I believe this moment falls into the category of “give them what they want”, if only because it took them all way longer to get down to the beach and hike back up than the actual time they spent photogenically splashing around in the water. Or Taylor really, really wanted those ocean shots to be the finishing touch on the photograph album she’s giving everyone as a souvenir.
They are trolling because they don’t care. And the only reason they wouldn’t care is if it were very real. It’s real. I call it, they’re getting married. And I wouldn’t die of shock if she was pregnant either.
They haven’t exactly known each other long enough for her to be pregnant and showing. If by some stretch of the imagination that she is pregnant, sorry to tell you Tara, it wouldn’t be Tom’s.
@Tara,
sorry, I don’t follow your logic. If I entered a PR relationship and got annoying flack for it, I’d totally troll. Yes, because I don’t care, but no, not because “it’s real”, but rather because I’m pissed that people aren’t going “awww, they’re so cute”, but rather “aw, they’re so fake”.
Mind you, I’m NOT saying that’s what’s going on here. I’m just saying that your logic isn’t really logic as much as conjuncture.
No…..I thought it first. 😛 I agree, they are real and they will get married.
Tom was only wearing the shirt so the kids he was chaperoning wouldn’t get lost. “Children if you wander off just look for my “Tom hearts Taylor” shirt.”
🙂 🙂 🙂
hahaha. Camp counselor Loki!
Well, IMO, if they aimed to troll they failed miserably, cause I can only see the joke on them now. They should learn that one does not simply decide to troll like that, you should know what you’re doing.
*shrugs*
i totally agree. It makes them look so desperate that they care so much about the public opinion of them. If they are so in love and this is so for real, they should have other things on their mind……
And again, we are talking about a previously serious actor in his mid thirties.
Ask Tom Cruise how that turned out for him….
Cruise’s films still do well and he has a lot more baggage.
Great minds and names think alike 😉
If they were in love they wouldn’t care or pay attention to what complete strangers think of them…
I disagree with Lilacflowers. Tom may still pull in fanboys for his action movies, but he did lose most of his credibility and respect from fans after couch jumping incident. This “thing” with TS will follow TH forever (see Tom Cruise & couch jumping). He will never be thought of again as a serious & sensitive British actor who reads poetry and quotes Shakespeare to moonstruck women. He’s now like most men out there, he’s ordinary. Poetic justice.
Again not a useful comparison. Cruise has been an A list movie star since he was young. Hiddleston was never at his level, not even remotely close You must remember for some people these stunts are the first impression. They know associate him with the squad or think of him as that older guy wearing a I heart Taylor swift tank top.
Actually that was ducks. He is known for quoting poetry to ducks, whilst rowing a semi-lovestruck journalist in circles.
But that doesn’t fit the “he was a totally serious actor! He’s thrown away his dignity!” narrative.
Agreed. They are obviously reading everything that’s being said and written about them – that’s what stunting famewhores do: they stunt and then read about the response to their stunts.
And like with most everything else, this stunt with the t-shirt failed, backfired, etc. I imagine they thought it would be fun or ironic to wear it – it was just cringey and opened them both up to more ridicule, TH especially.
LadyLoo, that may be the most succinct, not to mention spot-on, analysis of recent events I’ve read so far.
I think that’s exactly why this “we are in love” story is not selling, how are people supposed to believe in such scorn? I never minded Taylor Swift much and I think, despite of all this ridiculousness, that it’s going to turn out rather good to her (or at least with minimum damage), but the backfire to Tom’s career and life in general will be huge, specially because of all the bad response he’s having from people who were not even his fans to begin with. I don’t mean to sound sexist or anything, it’s just the way we perceived them previously, and even though we just know what they want us to know, it seems to me that he hit his head really hard to just start acting like this all of a sudden after calling himself so private and stuff. Just saying.
It’s a Christmas in July gift! Yay!
Methinks Hiddleston has already gotren the Bond role. So hecan do what he wants and also this is drumming up publicity
If he has, Eon and Broccoli are probably fine-toothing that contract for an out clause because this makes for a very comical Bond.
If he got the role her teenagers fanbase are not into Bond & I think since this started Tom lose some of his fanbase & the bond fans I presume they aren’t into him after this
No offense but Tom’s fanbase tho dedicated is very small compared to Swift’s fanbase . Also where does this notion come from that teenage girls dont watch Bond movies ? If they are interested they will.
Leave reality a moment. Tom us bond, Tay sings new Bond song, maybe even a hot screen cameo with Tom, how many Tay fans swarm to see said Bond flick?
Baloney! Dlo, Bond is a hit without TS groupies and the small TH fanbase. They’ve being doing ok for 40+ years without that kind of garbage and will continue to do so without Swifty singing the theme song and Hiddles being the skinny geek playing Bond. Gawd, how irrational some of you folks are. Please get a grip and quit thinking your fav is going to make everyone love them and the whole world will be a better place. I’m so sick & tired of this worshipping of famewhores, which is all these two idiots are when it’s all said and done.
They both literally make me gag. This is so dumb. Hasn’t it been like 3 weeks?! Are they serious?!?!? I agree that they are acting 13. So embarrassing.
This is awesome! It’s as if Enid Blyton wrote a romance!
No. Someone with A LOT less talent is writing and staging this rubbish.
I feel bad for the poor bodyguards who were probably stuck in the water keeping the public away so the group could get their perfect summer beach day pics. I live in RI and went to the beach yesterday and that water is COLD!
I hate super low cut bikini bottoms. Even Swifty looks like she has a little belly bulge in some of those pictures, so what hope does anyone else have? Those things should be banned.
I get Taylor because she acts like a teenager with all her “relationships” but with Tom I’m truly baffled. If this is to get the Bond role, how could it not backfire? Bond is suave and sexy, but he comes off as a lovestruck puppy dog, so it’s just highlighting how non-Bond he really is.
Also, has this diabeetus-inducing showmance really only been going on for THREE WEEKS?!?
Whatever this is, it is NOT to get the Bond role. He spent April, May, and part of June telling interviewers that he is not up for Bond.
I dunno, when I see a grown man wearing a t-shirt that’s the equivalent of a 12 year old girl doodling on a PeeChee folder, I think “BOND!” Honestly, I can’t imagine any scenario in which that t-shirt is a good idea. I can’t even find him attractive at this point.
Sure, he SAID he wasn’t up for Bond. He also spent most of the last three years SAYING that he wanted to keep his private life private. Can we trust anything coming out of his mouth?
I read a post somewhere that he may have done a screen test for Bond in May. There are still a few who think he’s already got it.
Bond was never going to happen and TH knows it. My guess is that his Loki role will be much reduced in the upcoming Marvel movies, so that train is also coming to the end of the line. So what does he have next? Kong 2, a big effects-driven movie. Do people go to Kong 2 to see “serious thespians”? Does the audience in China care about his Shakespeare experience? No, but now they sure as hell know his name and his face. TH is doing fine. Just imagine the scene at the Emmys a couple of months from now. TH and TS walking arm in arm on the red carpet… sitting in the front row with the camera cutting to them every 20 seconds…
I have to shield my eyes from those photos from secondary embarrassment. Ugh.
Do you have a pair of the glasses scientists use when they have to watch an atomic bomb test? Because those are the only ones that might work.
He looks old as f*** compared to the rest of the people there.
It looks like they brought someone’s dad along.
and Ryan Reynolds is older than him.
Wow is he? Ryan looks younger than than him. Tom hiddleston really looks old for his age.
Are they both 13? Yes! Ok, I’m finally sold. He’s clearly crazy about the girl and with his numerical age & her want of husband & kids, I’d be surprised if these two don’t wind up married in the near future. I mean, when could I ever imagine Tom Hiddleston wearing a t-shirt proclaiming his love and frolicking in the ocean with a big, happy grin. He’s ecstatic.
They really do seem perfect for each other. Before they got together, they were both picked on mercilessly in the press. Taylor for being Taylor and Tom for being awkward & try hard. They’re both supreme nerds with an uptight, buttoned up veneer. She’s extremely successful & will be uber famous for the rest of her life & it won’t scare him off. He’s a big supporter of women, always talking about his love of strong women like his mother and sisters. They both, except for Tom’s relationship with Fielding, seem to have a hard time getting the opposite sex to stay attracted to them for long after getting to know them. These two awkward nerds can relate to each other, have found each other & they’re in the same business to boot. They can be themselves around each other & love unconditionally. I’m actually rooting for them at this point.
Yes, she is just like his mother and sisters.
Certainly.
I didn’t say she was “just like” as in every way. But Taylor is a strong woman and Tom said that’s what he finds attractive in a woman because of his mother and sisters. Certainly his mother & sisters aren’t American pop stars with the emotional maturity of a 13-year-old girl. Thank goodness.
I don’t know much about Taylor but is she “strong”? She’s wealthy and thus powerful. Like most tweens, she has strong ideas about what she wants, but in her case she has the means to get whatever she wants. But do these qualities = strong? Or just f’in’ lucky as h*ll?
“Awkward nerds”? Oh come ON. One is an actor who clearly loves to lap up the admiration of crowds (even if that means he needs to do some impromptu dancing in front of them), and the other is an international pop star who sings and dances to full stadiums without an ounce of shyness. Both are perfectly at home at glitzy galas and parties, radiating self-confidence as they mingle with strangers.
They may be perfect for each other and they may have similarly twee, pseudo-dorky images, but neither of them is “awkward” or “nerdy”. Just because you read a book every now and then, it does not a nerd make.
Lol have you seen toms teenage photos? That dude was definetly a nerdy looking dude. ..
@Hannah A lot of people look nerdy as teenagers. That doesn’t mean they’ll be nerdy as grown-ups…
And maybe I’m a cold cynic at heart, but I think Hiddles’ nerd image is vastly exaggerated, even as a teenager. I mean, he was a house captain at Eton suggesting he had no problem finding his way among a elitist crowd of privileged and entitled young men. Curly hair does not a nerd make.
I concur. There was a time no one wanted to be a nerd/geek, even by association would be considered undesirable, now it’s just an overused label people throw around.
He is by no means socially inept, but he DEFINITELY is a dork and a nerd. Dork as in he is seriously uncool in a lot of ways (exhibit A…this entire relationship? His unabashed love of dancing horribly? His impressions that go on for way too long? His endless self-help quotes? I can’t stand to list any more?). And he is a nerd as in he once wrote a freaking dissertation to Joss Whedon thanking him for his role in Avengers, and goes on 10-minute long speeches about his characters that no one even asked him about. You can’t make this crap up. There’s undeniable proof of both these things. He might have his British charm, but suave he is not. At all. I don’t believe he’s as into the whole geek-culture thing as he’d like people to believe, but he’s a dork. And nerdy. People don’t get secondhand embarrassment watching his interviews because he’s so cool. He’s really…not. It always surprises me how seriously some people take him. He’s articulate and takes his work seriously, but beyond that? C’mon.
Being cool has to be effortless, the minute someone tries to be cool it’s all over. And Tom has always been far too enthusiastic and eager-to-please to ever be effortlessly cool.
Now his dancing circus bear is back in all its glory. It hibernated for a while, and some of us thought that was a sign he was maturing as a person and an actor, but I think the joke was on us.
I’m not saying he has to pretend to be someone he’s not, but the trouble is that the last few weeks have seemed like little more than a promotional tour for his personal life. Maybe all of these photo-op moments are just two people living their lives with no thought of appearances, but why then does it feel so artificial and contrived?
@Dara, I think everyone has different facets to their personalities, and to be fair, when I’m serious at work, I’m not even remotely like how I act around my friends. So I don’t think either his “circus bear” or “serious actor” face is necessarily a lie, just different parts of him. He knows when to use what side of himself, just like we all do. Except sometimes he goes into overly dorky territory on television and doesn’t turn it off in time, haha.
I might be interested what category he was in if geek, dork or nerd were proper words. Perhaps he’s a deek? A gerd? Or a nork?
@Bettyrose
Good point. Is her need for a squad of people at the ready because she needs constant validation and praise and can’t be alone. Could be. I guess from Tom’s geeky, fame whore perspective, her success may be a symbol of strength to him.
Also TS surpassed clooney we used to see clooney organised 4 July in lake Camo with his friends & his 2 years contract girlfriend but TS is every year with a new boyfriend at RI party
At first it may look like a random group of people, I mean what do Ryan Reynolds and ruby rose have in common? But if you look closer, or know what I know, you’d know they all have at least one thing in common and then it all makes sense.
Why so cryptic? Share “what you know” or don’t bother bringing it up.
Well I had to look up Ruby Rose (she’s an Australian actress, also gay), so you’re gonna have to give a clue.
Are they all repped by the same agency perhaps?
😂😂😂😂😂
Happy 4th of July! 🌭🍺
I’ve never felt like this before.
He isn’t trolling. He’s really this twee, immature and craving attention. I said it from day one she’s in control, he’s the puppy dog boyfriend. He’s a former geek he finally landed a place in the cool girl squad. This is what he always wanted. He feels validated.
Feel sorry for all the people who bought into his serious thespian I am so private suave intellectual act. That is what looks like trolling now.
Don’t know about second hand embarrassment, but there is a lot of second hand offence being taken by complete strangers. 😆
No, there’s just gossip and jokes being had here. No one’s taken offense at anything; we’re all taking the piss, however.
Yes, indeed! Is there a specific celebratory beverage for the 4th of July? (Besides, oh, Long Island Ice Tea?) Something colourful and fun? Lilacflowers?
Cape Codders? Or something with blue curacao?
Right? I had a peek over at the DM commentary and eep! Why on earth are people taking the Tiddles relationship so personally?
I mean, I can admit to some disappointment in Tom at first, for the whole staging thing, but I still like him and I’ll still support his work. Neither of them have drowned any puppies or done anything truly untoward that warrants this much ire and scorn.
Still the greatest thing ever. It’s fake as hell but so so enjoyable
He’s a 13 year old girl in a 45 year old mans body. Lmao!
And he’s got the t-shirt to prove it.
MOAR LOON! I’m so delighted the Loon is back! This was part of his Twitter bio–“Brother, son, friend, runner, dancer, prancer, loon”– before getting scrapped in favour of the more seriously simple ‘actor’. And all the people focused on a few things he said, forget he also said ‘Live your life!’ and ‘Shout it from the roof-tops!’
I’m delighted he is wearing a silly tank top (that is extremely flattering to those lovely built up back muscles in several shots) and had the face painter at the party put a silly T red heart on his arm. This loon is BACK!
I love it that you’ve found an angle you can get behind, Totally! It’s not the same when you aren’t being enthusiastic about LEGS.
Sixer, I’ve been a fan of the guy since 2011. I remember when the big whine through the fandom was how he had gotten too serious, wasn’t playful, lost his loon. He wasn’t who they thought he was! (Sound familiar?)
Now so many fans seem to think he’s lost his dignity. I say he freed up his always-there sense of humour. Which, frankly, seems a bit goofball at times!
And those are the same ones who claimed he had no dignity and couldn’t be a “serious actor” during the TDW tour. Just sit back and enjoy the show.
It certainly can be, but I think what people are upset about is that it’s an obvious grab for attention. Big celebs like Swift absolutely have the security and media clout that can keep paps pretty far away if they want. You’re seeing this because they want you to, not because paps are “catching” them every time.
I guess it’s because they didn’t think Tom would do this but I don’t see the big deal. It’s not hurting anyone and it’s a quick and effective way to raise your public profile.
Totally – I think balance has been restored! We’re both at where we always were. You think he’s bangable and lovely. I think he’s bangable and an utter plonker. See? We are back to 2011 already. It only took a week or so!
I had to google what plonker meant but it sounded like a good word to use one day!
Me too, had no idea what plonker meant…But it’s funny.. It’s similar to plank =piece of flat wood; and in my mother tongue we say that a flat plank is someone who is not very bright, an idiot…
Yes! 2011–Good Times! Hehehehee!
There is balance in the world for this little group. Don’t know what’s going on with many others on this thread; but balance is here. All is well. And we have flag-decorated cakes and fireworks yet to come.
(Although if my sister plays X’s 4th of July one more time, her kids may unbalance everything here.)
You forgot RODNEY, Sixer.
It’s essential.
Wow….. Just wow. I will say something nice though; she looks better now that she gained a few pounds. She was looking way too skinny before.
At this weight she looks amazing. I think she’s on the pill and that’s why she’s “heavier” than before. Her new boobs look good too.
He probably wore the tank top because it’s dorky and funny, and they’re at a Fourth of July party having…fun? He might possibly be doing it to laugh off the media criticism they’ve been getting, but aside from that he REALLY IS this dorky. Maybe he is a Thespian (who voiced a straight to DVD Disney movie and plays a super villain, but ok). But dude clearly likes to have a bit of goofy fun. I’m not sure why that’s so hard to believe. They both REALLY ARE this over-the-top and ridiculous, and have proven it time and time again. It’s almost as though people’s personalities can be *GASP* multi-faceted?!? Perhaps he IS serious about his work and also *GASP* likes letting loose with his girlfriend? Crazy talk.
Trying to make this fit some elaborate PR stunt at this point feels like much more of a reach than them just being two infatuated dweebs who like attention.
They look happy and cute, and their “T” heart tattoos are SO absurd. I adore it.
Side Note: Blake & Ryan are really sweet together.
Lol You and the other supper fans are the only one Reaching when it comes to these two.
If you believe this So called relationship is real then we were all wrong about the Kardashians. The Kardashians are poor victims and are really genuine people who don’t seek attrition and don’t do PR stunts.
Ya and Kim never got plastic surgery they are all natural. 😂😂😆
@ Flowerchild
I can’t believe there are people who belive this “relationship” is real.Lol then again there are people who believe Kim’s butt is real.
I’m not a super fan of either, not even really a regular fan of either. Just because they are fame-hoing it doesn’t mean they aren’t real. Not only do I believe it is real, I believe he fell for her for many reasons, not just love, as is pretty obvious, and will propose sooner rather than later. I think he is just as bad as she is loving and seeking out this attention, but I think he loves the package, young and pretty and ultra famous, and is going to propose this year.
I like what kc says, I wish I had an “I heart TS” shirt to wear in support of the much-maligned couple. Criticizing these two is like kicking kittens or stomping on butterflies. Just believe!
Bringing in the Kardashians? There must be a version of Godwin’s Law for gossip forums!😂
If you don’t see the HUGE difference between these two and the Kardashians, nothing we could say will get past the cognitive dissonance.
Not a super fan, just trying to be realistic about two people who in in the grand scheme of things are completely harmless and not remotely on Kardashian level. Celebs do a LOT for PR, including some of the pap walks Tiddles has clearly been taking. But I don’t think they spend every waking minute thinking about how they can troll the media and people in comments sections on gossip sites. *shrugs* They’re ridiculous and it’s a bit of fun.
Flowerchild isn’t the first who compared them to the Kardashians. Lainey called them the twee equivalent of Kanye and Kim.
@Mira – oh man, I’m imagining Kanye and Kim cackling loudly when they read that! I don’t think Lainey meant it as an insult, either, which must make it worse for TnT. Can you imagine Swift’s reaction when her publicist tells her about that?
Hiddles will probably just grimace even more.
Keep the faith, KC — The bitterness in every comment section known to man is as over the top as these two!!! Last week I was rolling my eyes at all the pap walks, etc., but I have honestly never liked Tom Hiddleston better than I do today. I’ve gone on and off Hiddles for forever, but what this stunt today shows is that he’s got balls — I’m dead serious! In the past, I could have sworn he and Luke would huddle up every week and read online reactions, because his course corrections always seemed eerily exacting. And *that’s* what I didn’t like about him at times. So try-hard. “Please like me.” “I’ll do whatever it takes for you to like me.” Blech.
But this ridiculous stunt? This is a blatant, in your face acknowledgment that he knows what’s being said (because of course he does!) and HE DOES NOT CARE!!!!!! He knows all the online cynics think he’s gay/thirsty/a generic idiot, and he’s doing what he wants to do anyway. GOOD FOR HIM!!!! If he truly has found a reason to stand his ground and be himself (dorky, attention-seeking, silly, over the top…whatever), then he will come out of this with his career intact, as well as his dignity — because in the end, dignity is about living your life as you want to…not to please others. (And we’ll hope those pics in the unfortunate underwear just quietly disappear…XD) All the naysayers here and elsewhere can go huddle up with the people who spent hours drawing lines on Sophie Hunter’s belly and claiming she was never pregnant. Their cynicism, bitterness and elaborate tin-hat theories are not a good look.
I’m with you, KC!!!
Or – and I realize this may verge on tinfoil-hat conspiracy and I’ll probably be mocked for not being cool enough to get the joke – he did indeed huddle up with Luke once they saw things heading south and they decided on a course of action that just might convince people to like him again. Cuz how can you dislike a guy that’s willing to double-down on his relationship, poke fun at himself, and the troll the haters, all at the same time?
I do agree with you that his fans are headed down the Cumberbitch rabbit hole. Some are going all out with their unconditional love, others spend their time mocking and belittling any fans that voice their reservations about the nature of the relationship. Others still have gone off the deep end and are reacting badly with conspiracy theories and irrational hate. In the meantime, most of the more level-headed ones I used to enjoy following are starting to quietly fade away, probably just to avoid all the drama. Soon, all that will be left will be the all-out nutters.
@platospopcorn – Haha, thank you! “I’ve gone on and off Hiddles for forever, but what this stunt today shows is that he’s got balls.” Weirdly, I agree? Completely agree. He always went on and on about how he didn’t take himself too seriously (and in certain ways he didn’t/doesn’t), but it was also always clear that he cared SO MUCH about what people thought. It was blatantly obvious like, as he was speaking to someone–you could see in his eyes how badly he wanted approval, and it was way too much for me. I’ve also gone on and off of him for years for that exact reason, too—the try-hard in him was really unattractive, despite seeming like a nice enough guy. So now, his willingness to be with Swift despite the incessant criticism he surely knows he’s getting is extremely endearing to me. I’m happy for him.
I 100% understand why many people are put-off by what he’s doing now, and I’m certainly not trying to argue their viewpoint, lol. Everyone can have their time being annoyed with him; I certainly did! But I guess as someone who always went back and forth between liking him and not liking him because of his rather grating need for approval, the fact that the guy is willing to stand proudly with this woman—either for love, ambition, a fun time or a mix of all of the above—and take whatever criticism comes his way because of it? That works for me.
I think at the end of the day, we have NO idea what is going on beyond the pictures we’re seeing. This could be the world’s worst publicity stunt, a stupidly elaborate music video, a silly summer rebound fling, or two soulmates who are flailing because they’ve finally found each other. We have no idea. Until we learn more, all we can do is sit back and watch the show.
A temporary tattoo plus bathing in the sea with a printed shirt….. I couldn’t feel more embarrassed for him.
As for Taylor being pregnant, I highly doubt it. She seems to be the kind of girl that has planned her dreamed wedding since she was 5 so of course she will never have a baby before living her dream. It will be interesting to see if these 2 carry on with the whole pantomime. I will give them 2 years.
Do they pass secret love notes back and forth during home room in their Lisa Frank notebooks too?
This is gossip gold for the tabloids. Last time Taylor gifted entertainment reporters with this much gossip revenue was in 2012-2013 with Connor and Harry.
One thing this article has wrong, she didn’t actually get his intials on the fake tattoo.
He has a tattoo of her initials she has a tatoo of the American flag. 😂😂😂
@Deidre, No no, they actually DO have matching “T” heart tattoos. It’s on her other arm. It’s glorious.
Ok, even better. I haven’t studied the photos that much. They are a hilarious couple😂
Maybe its me but the age thing is cringeworthy. I am 35 and my youngest friend is 28. I have an ex who is 31 who dated a 22 year old and I found that rather gross. Totally different stages in life. I can’t imagine presently hanging out with a bunch of mid twenty somethings or dating someone who has dated someone significantly younger than them; it sends up red flags to me about immaturity.
Actually a number of these folks are in their thirties. One of them is 39 (Ryan Reynolds). Uzo is 35.
He looks so happy and silly. And he always seems to love being silly.
except taylor is 26. with a job. a career. i’m guessing the 22 year old you talk about was some girl fresh out of uni, which is completely different than being a 26 year old with a major career. i’m not even a fan, but fgs, these sexist put downs are beyond, in fact if anyone is acting like a kid it’s him.
I’m not talking sexism here; I am talking about maturity. If it was the opposite and he was 26 and she was 35 I’d feel the exact same way. In fact, I am 35 and cannot imagine dating a 26 year old. Just are in totally different places of our lives.
Looks like they’re all having fun on a holiday. I live near a resort town on the water, and trust me, all sizes and ages are having a great day. It’s called having fun with your friends.
Twenty-two has nothing to do with a 26 1/2 year old who has been traveling the world since she was young and has a massive career making a lot of major decisions. I see nothing wrong with the age difference. A lot changes maturitywise from 22 to 26, almost 27.
Tom seems a little immature anyway.
A little? That’s the understatement of the year.
I agree. I am 35 and can’t imagine having a ton of 26 year old friends. We are just at different stages in life.
What a narrow view of the world. Why wouldn’t you want friends who are at different stages of their lives to you? Do you all have to be clones? Imagine the outcry if you said you filtered your friends on the basis of race! My BFF who I have known for over 25 years is more than 15 years older than me. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with Tiddles age difference.
This tweet. LOL!
“it’s so fitting that Tom Hiddleston is the epitome of being British and he’s out embarrassing himself in front of the world. Human Brexit”
lololol so embarrassing
I don’t know. If the guy wants to wear a silly t-shirt jump into the ocean to please the woman he’s dating (let’s call it that), ok? Taylor Swift or T.S. Eliot, it isn’t the most questionable fashion choice he’s made of late. Paper knickers, anyone?
I don’t follow Ms. Taylor’s life but it sure looks exhausting from the outside. Does she ever step away from the spotlight?
She like a reality star that way she loves the media and public attention too much to step away and have a private life. The next step I see for her is to get a reality show, maybe that’s her 2017 plan.
THE BAR (My Favourite bar) has burned down. In front of my eyes. As I gaze upon the smouldering ashes someone whispers in my ear that there was actually an animal sanctuary in part of the bar where three legged abandoned animals and a lovely kindly old lady and THEY ARE DEAD TOO.
Hahahahah! Your comment is funnier than the story. Can I comfort you by saying ‘a bar is just a bar; there won’t be new olds opening if the old ones aren’t burnt down’?
I am very sorry about the three legged animals and the lovely old lady, though.
Thanks Darl. Just going to have to revert back to Fass and Askars.
Was the blaze started by a Molotov cocktail stuffed with an I <3 T.S. t-shirt?
LOL!
I don’t see the humour in this one , but hey, to each their own.
Regional humor of some kind? I don’t get it either.
It was further to Londongal’s post last week:
“This is now like watching your favourite bar burn down in front of your eyes”
@Becky Thanks!
Well. And I thought it couldn’t get any worse than the Swan Floaty. I’m going with the Vietnam parasite theory upthread.
3 weeks in and this OTT means it will burn out out just as quickly. I believe Swifty will be back with CH as soon as this kabuki dance is over. There’s no way this is authentic with this type of media coverage- when have they spent 5 minutes together out of the spotlight?!
TH is in love with fame and all that goes with it, not the person whom he can’t possibly know in such a short period of time. I hope he figures out who he is and grows up some in the fallout.
PS- cheesy T shirt or not, his body is SICK.
The ladyboner survives against all odds. 😨
When a spice girl mocks you….

Taylor’s next song is a bitchy anti-Tom Twitter that has been reported more than once for threats. In an earlier incarnation the theme was ‘notice me Tom acknowledge me on Twitter or I’ll tell horrible stories about you.’
He sure has some weird ‘fans’, I ‘ll say that much.
Ouch lol
At first I thought his shirt said “I love US” and I thought, ‘awww, how cute’, he is wearing an ‘I love United States’ top for the 4th of July.
HAHAHAAHAHAHAAAAA the joke is on me!! I love TS!!!! awesome
ALL EYZ ON ME! This mediocre dullard and his struggle hairline finally got the attention he wants! I blame his middle aged stans for hyping him beyond reason and common decency.
You sound a little too invested. Why would you care if you think of him in ‘mediocre dullard and his struggle hairline’ terms? But then go on to say ‘hyping him beyond reason and common decency’ which suggests the polar opposite of ‘mediocre dullard’.
I’m genuinely curious.
I hate these people….. @Guesto: do not bother asking for explanations, not worth, are bitter people, only leave hatred in their hearts, these people are really sad, so ignore those comments meaningless.
I see him happy and that’s enough, Tom is a very brave man, so I am confident that everything will be fine.
Katia, you ‘hate these people’ and then go on to talk about how bitter and sad they are because they have ‘hatred in their hearts.’ Umm, did you want to rethink this stance…because it’s hypocrisy defined?
Tom…brave? Okay. Brave enough to show his real persona to the public for the past 3 years? Brave enough to not drag his family into his PRmance? Brave enough to have a relationship out of the public eye – like a normal person?
Sure…brave.
“Common decency?” Umm?
Common indecency is much more fun, as I hope Taylor and Tom have discovered.
Some lessons are more painful than others.

I just have one question about those pics, are the tattoos on Ryan Reynolds, one leg, fake or the real thing? Looks strange.
I think it’s adorable and straight out made me laugh and guffaw. In my opinion he is honestly really into her and he doesn’t give two fcks about what anyone says or thinks. And Taylor… Taylor’s just being Taylor. But I find it sweet. Insane but kinda sweet.
Sweet would be out and about just doing your thing in love not caring if someone paps you. Sweet isn’t that first set of pap photos on the rocks so contrived and the obvious pap set-up in Nashville sitting by the window (are you kidding me) for the pap shots to be taken of them all loved up. And don’t forget the obvious flying in to meet his mother with that first photo of their outing all together in a small town. It was so set up.
I find that off-putting, to actually set up pap photos right in the beginning of your relationship. Just being out together having a great time like July 4th I don’t mind or being in Italy and out and about together. That doesn’t feel set up for photos, just in love having a good time. She has her party every year and they are just having fun this weekend. I find the shirt funny.
Agreed. I think he has tuned everyone out but her. I think he was given the shirt as a gag and kept it on to be silly. She is not like anyone else he ever dated. How long she hangs on to him is the question.
oh come one guys. Tom is gay. I have no idea about Taylor, but she certainly tends to date gay men. This is SHOW put on for us. We buy the lies and that celebrities keep dishing them up. It is TIME for these people to be honest about their sexuality. Who Cares???? They are teaching kids to lie.
And FWIW, that I heart TS shirt is a ‘wife beater’. If he wore a short sleeved T, the effect would never so idiotic. Tom looks like the balding older uncle having a mid life crisis. Taylor looks ecstatic. Maybe she is pregnant? There is bloom to her I rarely see. Usually she seems to be pushing her glee on us. These photos, and the video – she looks honestly happy.
His dating life (with women) is documented. Even from before he was famous or even having a career (so no need to start the beard theory). He could be bisexual, of course, but very unlikely to be full-blown gay.
I have no idea why people insist obviously not-gay actors are gay. Almost every actor, whether he had relationships with women or not, was considered gay by some group of people. I still think it’s a coping mechanism for fans and haters. For fans because they then objectively have no chance and do not need to compare themselves with the actual partner; for haters because they want to degrade the actor. Which is a very homophobic thing to do, treating gay as if it were a negative characteristic.
Yeah. The whole contract thing I read on here all the time about actors is so silly.
Hi, there! Whether she or he is a beard we are never going to know. I think it’s stupid to pretend to be straight when you’re not. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with being gay but HW hasn’t got the memo yet.
Besides that, I used to have a thespian friend. At first I thought he was gay but he was not. Tom reminds me of him. He could be gay or straight or bi. It doesn’t matter. The gossip is entertaining and they kept delivering and they aren’t harming anyone. Swoki for ever!!! hahahaha
I agree Crox. The obsession on some sites that everyone was gay, or is gay, or will be gay in future is bizarre. I think if Tom was gay, the media storm would have prompted a few ex dates to tell their stories for money. But frankly I am not too concerned one way or the other.
I’ve never craved a bit-by-a-shark-in-shallow-water story so much.
awesome comment LOL!!
LOL!!
One thing I do love is that he sticks out not so much because of the shirt (oh yes that too), but because he is so pale – English/Scottish pale! I myself am Irish pale – I hope he slathered on some high velocity sunscreen!
Isn’t he the guy who loves to do crazy dancing and imitate velociraptors – and had a pajama party? Why is any of this out of character? At least he doesn’t seem to take himself too seriously. And yes he does look very happy and so does she. As someone said – no puppies were drowned. Have fun Hiddleswift!
If she really loves him, she’ll make sure he puts on his sunscreen. So let’s watch for sunburn tomorrow and then we’ll know.
Three cheers for JustMe! Oh, and we can’t forget Angry Bird riding–but that was the entire cast, so evidently it’s okay.
@Justme — None of it is out of character. Serious Thespian Tom is also Huge Attention-Loving Dorky Tom, and those two sides of him have always existed.
They’re having fun doing whatever it is they’re doing. It’s a happy thing. Go Hiddleswift!
I keep telling myself that they aren’t hurting anyone and at times it looks like they are having fun, but just when i think they’ve reached some sort of equilibrium and I can start to wrap my brain around what I’m seeing, it veers into some alternate universe where PDA photo ops, meeting the parents just a few weeks in, and body-paint hearts are all considered perfectly normal behavior. Give me a minute to adjust my expectations and I just might crawl onto the bandwagon – and then collapse in an emotionally exhausted heap.
She got a boob job.
Goodbye Tom. All my lust for you has gone. Who is next?
Me thinks Taylor wants her own wall of gazzilion non-white (preferably red) roses and now she has found the perfect guy to give it to her! 😂
I think we have underestimated Luke’s PR skills these past few years. Yes the loon and dancing bear have popped up on occasion (GN show) but Luke stil managed to shine him up and move him forward as a sophisticated, cool Brit. Surprise! I believe his US PR team has complete control at this point and have allowed him to unleash this part of his personality in order to remake him into ‘celebrity’. It’s going to be interesting to watch. I don’t thing he’s gonna be able to put that particular genie back in the bottle when this is said and done.
It does feel like a giant step backwards. All I can say is that the in-your-face aspect of the last three weeks have worked wonders, all I can see now is the “fun-loving, perfect boyfriend” facade that is being peddled. Congratulations Tom, you’ve made it to the big time, you are officially a “celebrity.” I’m enjoying the spectacle of it all, but that superficial thrill is about as far as it goes.
I am curious to see what comes next. He can probably peddle this cotton-candy version of himself for a while – his life for the next few years is going to filled with filming, and then promoting, a series of popcorn movies. He won’t need to dust off his “serious thespian” persona for quite some time.
Agreed. Those days are gone. I can’t help but feel this is a result of the disappointing reviews and box office of ISTL. He put it all on the line for that film, and it’s failure was probably crushing. Being the internets boyfriend can only get you so far, so celebrity it is.
It’s not just ISTL – CP, HR, TNM in the US. His last four projects have been disappointing in some way or on some side of the Atlantic.
And now his PRmance is flopping as well. He can’t catch a break.
What happened to Tom and Elizabeth Olsen?
As one tumblr blog astutely answered when asked why Tom and Olsen broke up: different hydration levels.
lol haha Elizabeth deserves better.
All right Tiddles , i’ll imaging your beautifull love story is real , is not a Pr Stunt, And Tom is fall in love with Tay , and I will assume that maybe Tom is angry with people who are rude and gossiping with her personal life and he wants to stop all slander. Would not it be easier to him just write a statement or something in twitter like ” people please i just fall in love with a great woman, and i’m very happy so please stop the gossip and wish me happines ” instead of make up this circus entertainment and act like a 12 years old boy? I could believe he fall in lo ve with her even i can’t understand it ,but a mature and respectful man does not face a situation like a kid of 10 years with a shirt ILU and fake tattos, if he wanted to stop all this and act more normally he would do it.
Like “I’m in love, please stop the gossip” would work? Come on, it would just add more fuel to the fire and he’d be even more ridiculed.
The best way to handle this is to say nothing or to show the press his middle finger. Which he’s doing, so all the power to him! He definitely gained a new fan in me.
And TBH I’m married and I’ll soon be 40 and we still mock around with stuff like funny shirts (no fake tattoos yet, but thanks for the idea) and being all lovey-dovey with a spouse or splashing with friends in water. Am I supposed to just swim lines now when I’m not 16 anymore? C. S. Lewis once made a good point how being an adult also means not to be afraid to be percieved as childish. Silly shirts FTW!
My bet is still that she’s knocked up. Hence the larger breasts and meeting the parents so soon.
I don’t think she is. Probably her metabolism is catching up with her (btw she has an amazing body and looks smoking at this weight) and got new boobs.
My bet is that she and her pr team want us to believe that and keep her in the headline !! But i don’t think she is pregnant at all !! “And the haters gonna hate, baby i’m just gonna fake, fake it off, fake it of”
When I saw Hiddleston wear this top and tatto I started laughing hysterically and thought good for him trolling back all those trolls.
Gained mad respect for him for his middle finger.
If its soooo true hes so worried about just his fame all this crap on the internet should have made him run instead he takes it with some sense of humor. I get it and the joke is on everyone else and they’re just having fun.
You’re not reading this situation correctly. In this story, the joke is on two people.
Yep @LadyLoo. His stans are completely blind aren’t they lol.
Ditto
LadyLoo you read it your way, we’ll read it ours.
The “trolling the trolls” argument is faulty logic to me. You can’t have it both ways. Either the happy couple truly don’t give two f*cks about what people are saying about them, in which case they should, in theory, not even know what the press and the fan reaction is, let alone be responding to it at all – humorously or otherwise. Or, two high-profile individuals who are very controlling of their respective images are closely monitoring how their very-public romance is playing with the audience, and are trying to prove they are in on the joke that their relationship has become. Either way, it’s a lot of nonsensical drama over a stupid t-shirt.
They’re reading everything. And they’re responding to it. And it’s making the situation even more desperate than it already is. She stopped maturing at the time she was removed from reality by her stardom, so 15/16. A 15/16 year old thinks an I <3 t-shirt is the perfect way to show the world your affection. So she gives it to him to wear. He's a 35-year-old man who wants to impress his gf (mental age 16) and wants to prove that their relationship is real with a capital R, so he wears it.
And like everything in this relationship, that plan blows up in their faces.
That t-shirt is not an attempt at deconstructionism. It's an attempt to make us buy into this relationship.
@Dara — Even supposing they are a 100% legit and in love as a couple, they can’t be a normal couple. They hear what’s said about them either on their own or through their management. They both clearly monitor their images tightly. They might very well be extremely happy together and want to hit back at the cynics for saying otherwise. Or they might’ve just had a silly in-joke that led to the tank top being made. But I don’t think being happy together and caring what the public thinks are mutually exclusive, necessarily.
Either way, I can’t believe either one of them ACTUALLY thinks an “I Heart T.S.” shirt would prove the validity of their "love." It's either a silly tank top saying "haha, keep talking, we're doing this anyway" or it literally has nothing to do with the general public and it's just. a. tank. top.
Dara
It is unlikely Tom reads the Mail and even then just see it as silly fan/press stuff.Tom’s PR may feed some back but probably Knows better than interfering with his love life.I pop on here occasionally to see what is being said out of curiosity and because some of it can be quit funny especially on group giggle night
Sorry, icehouse, but TH most certainly does read his own press – every celeb does. Luke will have sent him clippings or summaries. He will not have missed the media’s coverage of him or TS.
And considering Tom and Luke have used the DM to plant info/stories before, you can bet he’d read that one first.
Tay-Tay’s body looks great in that bathing suit.
She sure has left Nashville in the dust, hasn’t she? Not one friend from her Nashville past invited to her annual blowout, or maybe I just don’t recognize them in the photos.
Didn’t take much effort at all to see that her best friend from high school was there. But drive on with that narrative.
I noticed the high school friend was in the beach pictures and I’ve only seen/heard of her at the Selena Gomez concert last week.
Only if you know who her HS friend is. Did she even go to HS, I thought she was homeschooled?
And her ‘squad’ line-up rotates more than that of Menudo, so it’s a perfectly reasonable comment from Jayna.
Well that one girl Abigail was there. She’s the only one that regularly makes an appearance in Swift’s life
But I think we all know by now that Taylor IS Regina George in sheeps clothing. Step out of line and you’re out of the squad
Paul Rudnick, NY – comedian – tweeted “The Navy Seals that were sent in to get Bin Laden have now been sent to extricate Tom”. Well said, indeed.
Even Andrew Pierce and Kevin Maguire are taking the ……on Sky Press Preview tonight.
What!!?? Has he become part of the zeitgeist?
Budget Fassbender really outdid himself this time. His thirst is off the charts!

I keep meaning to mention, regarding the supposed ‘heart tattoo’, that isn’t actually a temporary tattoo –if that matters to people.
Perusing all the many pics out there (from multiple agencies,just like during the EuroTour), there was evidently a face painter at Taylor’s party. Instead of getting their faces painted, T & T opted for matching arm hearts. I’m older than they are, but I would do the same with my SignificantOtherTB if the opportunity presented itself. And he would darn well go along with it!
Upon further review of the video, looks like Taylor had an American flag on her bicep that washed or sweated away. Can’t blame Brit Tom for not donning our flag at a US independence Day celebration! 😂
Looks like Ryan Reynolds had something painted on his arm as well, but too much washed away before the pics/vid to identify what it was. Also noted that Ryan & Blake did a cute Notebook pose recreation in the surf as well!
Good lord-I remember when everyone was saying Cumby was acting ridiculous/selling out. Twiddleston makes that look tame. I am loving it. GLORIOUS!
Crumby’ PR actually rewrote his wife’S CV ON wIki and Imbh to make it sound more impressive and the laughter at her avant garde fish film was epic and even know he makes more comments which irritate the UK press etc.I think a lot of the nastiness about both of them is the current anti press privately educated actors are receiving at this time and more to do with people’s personal prejudice than anything which is actually important.

No, “crumby’ pr did not do that. One of his unhinged fan did. I have afeeling though that you already know this but still go on spreading that lie as fact just because. Oh well…
As for his wife fishy music video, I happened to laugh at it too. But I disagree that it was epically laughable, I mean, defintely not on the same epic laughable level as you darling wearing i heart ts tshirt. That wasTom Cruise cpuch jumping epic. Kudos to Hiddles. Cumbry’ would never reach that level. Epic. Legendary.
Please y’all just stop before you embarrass yourselves anymore. (That’s all I got for Tiddles)
When they break up will his reputation/ image ever recover? This is a question to his longtime fans.
Probably. But that TS footnote will always be there. Jake G. still has his TS footnote, Harry Styles and John Mayer, too. Partly it’s the PR that went on with the relationships, but mostly it’s the eventual song that she uses to memorialize the relationship or take revenge.
Eh, until this all came up I had no idea JG had dated TS.
She’s clocked in one and a half actors – JG and Taylor Lautner and at least one Brit – Harry Styles. Not sure if this is her biggest relationship age gap or not.
This is his first Taylor Swift.
Well, you’re one of very few, TBiased.
As a scientist, ladyloo, I really have to ask how you can possibly know this?
Where’s a Sharknado when you need one?!?
Tom will be appearing in Sharknado 7 in the coming years. This will be his post-TS acting comeback!!
Everyone is just wrong.
Poor Tom, he has been seed podded is all.
**adjusts foil helmet and sunglasses**
someone call Dana and Fox.
They will sort him out.
Chris Hemsworth please slap Tom with your big arm when he asks if Taylor can have a cameo in Thor 3. Because he will.
I have no problems with any of this having a lasting effect on Tom’s career.Not only is he the BFI ambassador he was on the list to be a member of the Oscar team or what ever its called,His knowledge of films is far greater than most actors and he has some superior supporters and directors in the UK and USA who have worked with him and praised him many of whom went through well publicised breakups.
I think it is only the gossip sights that even give a fig,Many of the people a part from his fan base who attend his stage shows etc do not even follow gossip sights and view them a bit like tumblir but will still go to a good film or theatre performance.Most people I know in the theatre never read gossip sights and are far more interested in casting news ,awards than repetitive facile analysis of career trajectories and probably treat it as none of their business.
He has to get the job first.
I see this whirlwind romance ending in a bitter breakup in a few weeks time. Either that or they will get married quickly and then divorce quickly. They are having fun together and making fun of the media. But Tom has reduced himself to ‘celebrity’ rather than an actor who can be taken seriously and I think it will negatively affect his career. Taylor is just doing Taylor.
despite of everything, I have to admit they are very good-looking couple
Wow, they went from cute and annoying to straight up insufferable in like 2 weeks!!
Who the eff are all those people at her party?! Taylor Swift used to give off the vibe of her July 4 parties being hipster-y and DIY and still friendly and kinda intimate. Like she probably trades cupcake recipes. Like, try hard but still sweet and cute. But now? So insufferable, like she just wants to show off how much money she has and how many famous friends she has. She’s become so full of herself. It’s nauseating.
And the hell is that T-shirt?! She’s become insufferable and he’s become ridiculous! It’s not even a creative shirt! It’s just like Lol OK whatever dude. That’s just really lame. And I guess you’re not as interesting a person as I thought.
Whatever happened to the Taylor of 2013? How did she go from being sweet and ambitious and hard working to partying it up with people who aren’t even her actual friends, like frigging Cara Delevingne? Can she not just have a party for her family and her staff, and maybe invite the neighbors? Can she not try to recreate 1950s white America? Can she stop being so full of herself???!!!
These pictures are making me want to barf! Yuck!
