Baby and Bump Obsession Mindy Kaling loves a good print She does, doesn’t she? And colour. And she looks great in both. Here she is in a printed dress with bold colours on the set of The Mindy Project yesterday. Fashion, however, is not hot topic where Mindy is concerned these days. She’s pregnant.

Theatre Nerd Tom Hiddleston Hamlet It’s been a pretty quiet summer for Tom Hiddleston. He popped up at Comic-Con, but—press obligations aside—he’s been flying under the radar this summer, unlike last summer, when he frolicked in the waves with Taylor Swift, and we were all so innocent and young.
