To not get the Tom Hardy obsession?

I'm 37 so maybe this is why I just don't get the obsession every female seems to have with Tom Hardy.
He just looks like an ordinary guy to me but the amount of Facebook memes and posts my female friends post about him and I don't get it. What am I missing?

"But I don't fancy most male sex symbols that women generally swoon over. Especially the American ones. They are kinda too clean cut and sugary."

That's why I crush on Hispanic ones - they're heavenly. Younger William Levy was an utter God...

He's got wonky teeth but has refused to have them 'Hollywooded' which I think is a good thing!

ZilphasHatpin · 30/04/2017 18:29

I like his wonky teeth. Fed up of seeing fluorescent white factory moulded teeth on tv.

I think he's a brilliant actor and loved Taboo but I think he's pretty average really. I also went off him when he walked out on his girlfriend and very young baby for Charlotte Riley. I prefer Cillian Murphy and think he has much more charisma and is much more beautiful.

I don't mind the teeth, I too am bored of generic good looking actors and actresses, pillow faces, super smooth skin, teeth whiter than bloody snow.

Just watched Locke without knowing anything about it, other than it was TH in a car. Wow - it was so gripping! And not just because of Tom's fine acting. Brilliant plot and voice actors and I do love a bit of moral examination.

Didn't you think his Welsh accent veered into an Indian accent at some points? It is a good film though!

wineusuallyhelps · 01/05/2017 05:28

Yes, the accent was a tad dodgy for sure! I'll let him off though.

user1489179512 · 01/05/2017 10:03

I absolutely take the point about his teeth. I was joking. His teeth are natural and not the ghastly Hollywood fakes stuck onto the ground-down stumps of one's own teeth.

His teeth are fine.

user1489179512 · 01/05/2017 10:11

Very appealing smile...

He looks beautiful in that photo user14, thanks! 😍

ZilphasHatpin · 01/05/2017 10:26

He does. He has a great smile when he is "off guard"

wineusuallyhelps · 01/05/2017 10:27

'British' teeth never hurt anyone Grin

To be fair user, if Tom had the luminous white, overly-perfect Hollywood smile, I'd think less of him. Keep it rough, I say!

BusterGonad · 01/05/2017 10:36

Yes Wine I wholeheartedly agree. Keep it ruff and sexy! There's nothing worse then a boring pretty boy! Wink

wineusuallyhelps · 01/05/2017 10:55

James Delaney with LA teeth wouldn't really work, ha ha!

JamesDelaneysHat · 01/05/2017 17:19

James Delaney with LA teeth! Grin
Even his own, slightly wonky, teeth looked a bit too 'white' in the grubby face.

Oh the grime. The tattoos. The thighs. The thigh tattoos....

slinkysaluki · 01/05/2017 18:09

Liked him in Taboo. I like Alexander Dreymon in The Last Kingdom Wink and Jason Momoa oh yes

jazlovestomhardy23 · 17/08/2019 06:22

Oh he's just so fricken sexy. I don't know if it's just me but I think he is the sexiest man on this planet. Damn, the things I'd do to that man! 💦🤤😆

@MinesaPinot

Tom Hardy could stand still and read the back of the crisp packet and I would fall at an undignified heap at his feet, I've had a massive crush on him since he was in the Martina Cole adaptation (and he was obnoxious beyond belief in that).

My latest crush is the bloke playing Riggs in the new Lethal Weapon on ITV. Mind you, Damon Wayans is in that and he's rather lush as well.

The Take. He was also fantastic in Stuart a Life Backwards and as Sikes in oliver twist.
