Relationship Assumption Swoki in Nashville The first couple of dancing like everyone's watching was in Nashville last night and couldn't keep their hands to themselves. Yes. I just wrote a totally cliched sentence. But given that the subjects announced their love while waves crashed on the rocky shores with the wind By Lainey • Jun 22, 2016 01:12 pm
Media Manipulation Tom Hiddleston is letting it all hang out Earlier this year it was noted that Tom Hiddleston’s public persona has shifted from “internet’s boyfriend” to a more closed off, grown up persona. Saint Tom the Huge Dork is dead, and in his place we have…Tom Hiddleston: Sears Catalog Underwear Model. In a new profile in By Sarah • Jun 20, 2016 02:53 pm
Relationship Assumption On the timing of the Swoki In the previous post, Kathleen just wrote about Kanye West’s wife calling out Taylor Swift in the new issue of GQ. That interview and Taylor kissing Tom Hiddleston on the rocks in Rhode Island landed online pretty much at the same time. And you know what made the bigger By Lainey • Jun 17, 2016 12:14 pm
Hook Ups Swoki: the pretence of legitimate romance Twitter was made for these moments. When Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston happened yesterday, it was Twitter, not Instagram, not Snapchat, that gave life to a romance that just started breathing. It was Twitter that pointed out that we really do have Anna Wintour to thank for this wonderful thing: By Lainey • Jun 16, 2016 11:56 am
Hook Ups Swoki? What's the combined name we can come up with for this? What this? Um. THIS.

BFFs Taylor Swift: the MET Gala’s silver dancer There are some people who believe that Anna Wintour’s control over the MET Gala is so absolute, she can dictate what certain people wear. Like she would consider it bad form if one of the co-chairs was not wearing the designs of one of the designer honourary co-chairs. But By Lainey • May 03, 2016 11:36 am
TV Updates Tom Hiddleston: Dapper Gentleman at the MET Tom Hiddleston, Serious Actor, attended the Met Gala in white tie and tails, looking every inch a dapper English gentleman. It was a bad idea to have me write this right after seeing Captain America: Civil War because it creates an approximate two hour vortex where nothing else matters.

Movie Reviews and Previews Tom Hiddleston in High-Rise You expect a movie to be weird, and then you watch it and it’s WEIRD. So it goes with Ben Wheatley’s High-Rise, an adaptation of J.G. Ballard’s classic sci-fi novel. Steeped in a 1970s aesthetic consistent with the publication of Ballard’s book, High-Rise is stylish By Sarah • May 02, 2016 12:07 pm
MET Gala 2016 Idris’s first MET Gala If he’s been there before I can’t find any pictures. Check out Idris Elba last night in New York at Anna Wintour’s for a pre-MET Gala dinner. As you know, he’s co-chairing with Anna and Taylor Swift. For the first time ever, E! will be broadcasting By Lainey • May 02, 2016 09:33 am
TV Updates Tom Hiddleston is no longer the internet’s boyfriend Tom Hiddleston has been promoting things for the last few months, from I Saw the Light to The Night Manager—which is good—to High Rise, premiering on demand at the end of the month. I commented earlier this year that it seems like, on his current promotional run, we’ By Sarah • Apr 22, 2016 12:05 pm
TV Updates Tom Hiddleston in The Night Manager The Night Manager has already aired on the BBC and it begins its run on AMC in the US tonight, because somehow in 2016 synchronous release still isn’t the industry standard. The six-part mini-series is an adaptation of John le Carré’s novel—and the author himself has a By Sarah • Apr 19, 2016 12:11 pm
Media Manipulation Tom Hiddleston making the rounds Tom Hiddleston’s new movie, I Saw the Light, opened last weekend but hardly anyone noticed amidst the bat-noise of Superhero Face Punch. But Hiddleston did his duty and promoted the movie, making several talk show appearances and being visible. As I noted before, this is not the same Tom By Sarah • Mar 29, 2016 03:15 pm
Media Manipulation Tom Hiddleston and James Bond I’m going to follow up this post with one about Jake Gyllenhaal so please note that a comparison is coming. As we’ve seen, when Tom Hiddleston is promoting a movie, invited on talk shows, he’s the eager beaver… He becomes an exclamation point. Which I don’t By Lainey • Mar 23, 2016 04:14 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Who is Henry Cavill? Henry Cavill is promoting Batman vs Superman. It opens next week. We’ve been waiting – or told to wait – for two years. And it needs to be a big deal. Ben Affleck, undeniably, is a big deal. That’s only half the equation though. Is Henry Cavill a big deal? By Lainey • Mar 17, 2016 11:09 am
TV Updates Tom Hiddleston wall f-cking Apparently the internet jizzed all over itself last night over a scene in The Night Manager featuring Tom Hiddleston and Elizabeth Debicki doing it against a wall. It was his bare ass. And Twitter, in particular, got soaked. Let’s have a look, shall we? Please note this is NSFW By Lainey • Mar 14, 2016 03:58 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Nearly Naked Tom Hiddleston A new trailer for Tom Hiddleston’s next film, High Rise, came out yesterday and it expands on the previous glimpse of Nearly Naked Sunbathing Tom Hiddleston with Nearly Naked Standing & Talking Tom Hiddleston.
