Q&A with Tom Hiddleston

Last weekend I saw Coriolanus with some ladies, and ever since has been "Tom Hiddleston Appreciation Week."  I know I've mentioned him before, but I've realized some people don't know much about him. Well, let's just say he's a lovely old soul who has still retained a child's playfulness.  And is at the same time devilishly handsome!



Last fall, he did a Twitter Q&A and I loved some of his answers, so here are some quotes, pictures and videos of his for your enjoyment.

[My favorite poem...]
 He recites the beginning in this photo shoot & interview:


[My favorite Disney film as a child...]
He once broke into the "Bare Necessities" impromptu:
 



[Hiddleston reading to his Thor teddy bear]
[Hiddleston with Quvenzhane Wallis at the MTV Movie Awards 2013]





[Prince Hal to Henry V - from PBS's The Hollow Crown]




[Hiddleston as F. Scott Fitzgerald in Midnight in Paris]

And remember...


Probably more to come on that, but it's safe to say that I think Hiddleston is pretty fantastic.

Get Dancin': John Newman

You've probably heard this song by now, but the flatmate and I can't stop dancing along to this Romeo and Juliet inspired [sorry about the ending :/ ] music video from John Newman.


This guy is seriously impressive.  He is bringing back "Northern Soul" and it sounds amaaaaazing!  Plus, the 23-year-old Brit designs all his own clothes and jewelry.
You can read up more about him on buzzfeed
OR...
You can join some friends and I seeing him live in April in Seattle (for under $20!!).

Happy Friday and... darn, I wished people still danced like that!
