Tom Hiddleston has a man- crush on Chiwetel Ejiofor & Idris Elba: adorable?

Here are more photos of Tom Hiddleston at the GQ Men of the Year Awards on Wednesday night in London. As I said yesterday, he looked good, but his newly-dyed hair is throwing me off a little. While he was at the event, Tom did some red carpet interviews and he ended up revealing a love of dark chocolate. Aw, yeah. It seems that whenever Tom is forced to think about his man-crushes and whom he admires, his mind always goes to chocolate-thunder actors like Chiwetel Ejiofor and Idris Elba. Start your slash fan-fiction now.

Do you think Tom is really friends with Ejiofor? And of course he admires Idris. What man doesn’t want a little Idris on the downlow?

Tom recently gave an interview to MTV for Thor: The Dark World, and it seems like Tom might be angling for a small guest spot in The Avengers: The Age of Ultron. Tommy told MTV, “I do feel like there’s some unfinished business between Loki and the Hulk. I feel like he didn’t get a fair fight. Who knows, you’ll have to see what happens in ‘The Dark World’ to find out where Loki finishes up.” Well, we already know that Marvel did some reshoots on The Dark World and that maybe Loki is going to live to fight another day, so I don’t really get all of this angst.

Last Hiddles story – Natalie Portman was discussing the part in the movie (which you can see in the trailer) where her character slaps Loki. Natalie said: “It was actually a punch. We did a few that were fake, but they could tell because I am just bad at that. So there were a few real ones because they were like, ‘you are just a little girl, you really can’t hurt him’. So I don’t know, he acted like he could handle it, but I think I actually hurt him.” Natalie punched Tom in his pretty face! The horror!

    That beautiful face needs to be caressed, not slapped. Unless it’s for a bit of wicked fun. Just a bit though.

    Homie has Great taste in Men

      IKR! He legit just named 2 of my husbands……… I have several.

      • truthSF says:

        You mean 2 of MY husbands, right Tiffany?!

        I don’t want to have to group you with the trio sluts of shameless thievery… T-fanty/Anna/J. Eyre . I already have my hands full keeping those sluts away from all of my lovers.

      • j.eyre says:

        @TruthSF – you know saying our names together like that just invokes us. We are like the Witches in MacBeth – only Sluts. Except our cauldron is full of cheap gin and instead of an All Seeing Eye, we have a Magic 8 Ball with the names of hot people hastily scrawled on the plastic hexagon thing

    • Tiffany27 says:

      Let’s not fight ladies. There’s enough room for all of us in their harem lol.

    • T.C. says:

      Hiddles and Elba would be some hot man loving. I’d watch that for reals.LOL.

  3. Sixer says:

    Hoi! Tommy-omelette! Stop stealing my men!

    I could get quite aggressive about this.

    • Lucrezia says:

      Delayed gratification. Tom has your men now – and won’t share – but you can have some in a little while. You’ll enjoy it more for the wait.

      (Kaiser should’ve led with the Cookie Monster clip. Cookies > dark chocolate.)

      • Sixer says:

        I know we are all about sharing in these ‘ere parts. I will share any of my men with any of you ladies any time, any place, anywhere.

        However, I am going to take some convincing that I should extend this level of hospitality to, to, to – oh, the horror – one of the MEN?

        *goes off to search for amazon outfit and warlike spirit*

      • Lucrezia says:

        Tom has cookies, what more convincing do you need? It’s not like you have time to cook, and you need to keep your strength up.

        I certainly wouldn’t recommend eating any of my cooking 😉

      • Miss Jupitero says:

        My men!

        I commend him for his excellent taste.

        And I think this year will be Oscar time for Ejiofor.

    • T.fanty says:

      I watched the first episode of Luther last night. It seems like they did not heed my advice. I want to know who suggested opening the series with Idris doing a slo-mo walk in the rain away from an exploding building. I’m sending Portman around to slap them.

      • Allons-y Alonso says:

        Send in Jeremy Irons in to do the slapping!!!

      • Sixer says:

        Fanty – I warned you about episode 2 already, right? You’ll die a little bit. Look. It’s Idris. Suspend your critical faculties. I-d-r-i-s.

      • T.fanty says:

        Sigh. You’re right. I’ll adhere to the principle of delayed gratification.

        Speaking of which (or not), BBCA are running them as a four-night event, which means episode two tonight! Yippee!

      • Sixer says:

        I think I’m liking this delayed gratification theme. It offers all sorts of justifications for all sorts of things…

        … and you’re talking to the gal who watched Whitechapel last night just because it features Rupert the Penry-Jones.

      • T.fanty says:

        RPJ is quite lovely. Is this the new series? How is it? The one with the guy in the walls gave me nightmares. When that show works, it WORKS.

      • Sixer says:

        It’s gone a bit silly and involved MI6. But also peine forte et dure, which could have been good but then they went and completely misdefined it, sending me into a mini-sulk.

        But I love RPJ and I think the part was made for him. And my spots are always soft for a bit of Phil Davis.

      • T.fanty says:

        Okay, explain to me why people love Phil Davis? He is quite literally the worst actor in the world. He makes Kellan Lutz look like Brando.

      • Sixer says:

        I can’t speak for anyone else or, obviously, account for his missing acting skillz, but for myself – I once saw him on a book show and he was the most delightful man. And for that and his decent taste in books, I’ll defend him against All Those Who Wish Phil Davis Could Act – just y’know. Because. I like him. I’m afraid I can’t do better’n that.

      • T.Fanty says:

        That’s precisely how I feel about Daniel Radcliffe. I think it also helps when they are wee.

  4. Allons-y Alonso says:

    Hiddleston has good taste!
    That poor lovely face. That slap he got from Irons in Hollow Crown looked really painful too.

  5. Debra says:

    un deux trois..brut.

  6. Birdie says:

    That was the first thing I thought when I saw the pictures: Did he dye his hair to appear more ginger?

  7. Elodie says:

    Well Hiddleston and Eijiofor go way back when they worked on stage together, and I remember seeing pics of them hanging out at night a few years back, so yeah they are friends…

    • Ariadne says:

      Chiwetel is modest, private and humble I can’t imagine he has anything in common with blabbeemouth tommyanna. The guy just can’t stop giving interviews.

      • Elodie says:

        Eh? There are all kind of friendships between unlikely characters ma’am, so this one isn’t odd per se?..

      • Dante says:

        Please, Tom is just using more respected actors to get attention as usual. Its called asskissing and its guarented to get him a headline which is all he seems to care about. This guy should buckle down and do some good work instead of all the attention seeking. And how do you even know they are friends, they appeared in a play together and was photographed at an event doesnt mean they are personal friends.

        By the way If you read about Ejifor he hardly ever does interviews, never talks about his private life or other famous people. Is never photographed by the paparazzi. He is famously private so i dont think you could even say who his friends are. Apparently he dated and lived with Rhada Mitchell for years and they were never photographed or never spoke about or confirmed their relationship.

  8. Miss M says:

    Adorable?! Yes! he is quite lovely and charismatic in live interviews!

  9. Hannah says:

    What pretty face? Tom hiddleston is not pretty. He looks like any average looking Toff here in england. Idris and chiwetel on the other hand: hot, hot,hot!!!!

  10. Side-Eye says:

    I remember when I thought Tom was just the man alive, and now I just–eugh.

  11. Lipsy says:

    Aaaaand I’m back! LOVE Tom again.

  12. Portia says:

    I can’t wait for the day when I read an article about Hiddleston and there’s no mention of Loki. So sick of that whiny character.

    His hair is neither here nor there right now. The blonde is coming back though and I adore me some blonde Hiddles.

  13. ichsi says:

    I’m still convinced that it isn’t a man-crush but a full blown i-want-in-those-men’s-pants crush, but yeah. I wish he’d do more movies instead of interviews.

  14. flower says:

    He has that “do they think I have gay crushes or something?” look on his face. Have seen that look before when that woman interviewer asked him if he was metrosexual and he had no idea how to answer….hilarious.

  15. Shana says:

    Tom Hiddleston has a pretty face? Ok sure. This guy is not goodlooking at all but just an overrated brit actor who gets a pass because he has an accent and does impressions. His ass kissing and try hard interviews are a turnoff. Give me Idris anyday over this dud.
    There is a reason his nickname is TommyAnne.

  16. Fatty Cakes says:

    It’s not his “newly-dyed hair” that’s throwing me off, it’s his ever-expanding forehead (or fivehead+).

    Sorry Hiddles. I still love you and er’ythang, but I hope you’re confident enough to embrace the bald that’s surely coming in the next few years.

  17. icerose says:

    Tom was interviewed on the red carpet after he was asked to present the GQ women of the year award and I was really pleased at his choice of men of the year. Both great intelligent actors that he has worked with. Tom won an award for his part in Othello starring Chiwetel Ejiofor and the cd makes for great listening -all those wonderful diverse accents and voices. It was one of his early career making performances and Ejiofor won an Olivier Award.
