The \u2018Thor\u2019 star and the pop megastar had a whirlwind romance 2016<\/p>\n
Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston have long moved on from their whirlwind romance a decade later, but the internet will never forget. <\/p>\n
The Thor actor found himself in an awkward moment during the New Year\u2019s Eve special of The Graham Norton Show, where his fellow guest Laura Dern shared a story about her close friendship with the pop megastar. Hiddleston was on the BBC show to promote season two of The Night Manager when host Graham Norton pointed out Dern\u2019s connection to Swift. The Jurassic Park actress has previously described their bond as a \u201cdeep friendship\u201d and starred in Swift\u2019s 2022 Bejeweled music video.<\/p>\n
As Hiddleston listened on, Dern launched into a humorous anecdote about how the younger generation recognised her not for her iconic movie roles, but for starring in a Swift video. The interaction happened during a family vacation to Hawaii with a stop at a Jurassic Park attraction. <\/p>\n
\u201cIn that moment I was the most famous person that ever lived,\u201d she joked, thinking that she would be swarmed by Jurassic Park fans. \u201cI said to my young children \u2018this is going to be a nightmare for mom guys,\u2019\u201d she recalled.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd suddenly I see these three teenage girls start to lose their minds and run toward me\u2026 Right under the Jurassic Park sign they yell \u2018oh my god! You\u2019re the girl in the Taylor Swift video!!\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
While the story drew laughter from the audience \u2014 and even a small chuckle from Hiddleston \u2014 viewers online were quick to point out his stiff reaction.<\/p>\n
\u201cHis face says it all,\u201d one fan commented, while another wrote, \u201cHe looks damned uncomfortable on that couch though, doesn\u2019t he?\u201d<\/p>\n
Swift is now engaged to NFL star Travis Kelce, and Hiddleston recently welcomed his second child with fianc\u00e9e Zawe Ashton.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The \u2018Thor\u2019 star and the pop megastar had a whirlwind romance 2016 Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston have…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":385043,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[64,63,134,427],"class_list":["post-385042","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tv","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-entertainment","tag-tv"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/385042","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=385042"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/385042\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/385043"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=385042"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=385042"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=385042"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
