    In a new interview Tom Hardy has revealed that he feels no shame over his old MySpace photos.

    Rememeber Tom Hardy’s MySpace pictures? You know the ones where he’s posing in a pair of tight white pants, seductively taking selfies before selfies were even “a thing”?

    Well, in a new interview Tom has come out in defense of those photos (and his special little pants) which have gone viral on more than one occasion. Speaking to Sky News Tom said of one snap, in which he seemed to have fashioned himself some sort of loin cloth, come nappy: “I might not be an Adonis, but I like to think of myself as an Adonis in that photo.”

    He continued: “I've got no shame about my MySpace photos, especially the one of me in my underpants which is a glorious photo of a man in his natural habitat.” Finally cementing just how proud he is of himself in the pictures Tom said: “In my tighty-whitey budgie smugglers. In America, they say "You should be ashamed of this" but I'm actually not remotely ashamed – that is me in my natural habitat, thank you.”

    Lest we not forget it wasn’t just the pictures that made Tom’s profile a thing of joy, it was his lengthly about me section. We’ve pasted it below so you can remind yourselves just how glorious it was - please note, all typos are Tom's own...

    “I never lie. If you suck you suck..If you’re good I take my hat off and I’m all over you. I’ll bend over backwards to help anyone of their word.. fuck me around I’ll let it go I’m not here for stuff I’m here to live and give whatever it is I can to nourish rather than to take and move on, I’m course and straight, I act for a living now adopting characters for money, it is a languague I was born into, I always wanted to be someone else, it isn’t rocket science it’s easy, now that I’ve made amends for lying to myself, it is a trade craft nothing more, I pray I don’t get caught up “living the dream.” such a lonely place. having said that; your best like my best just isn’t good enough. ever, no scarface syndrome here, no resting on laurels, there is always work to do, I’ll clean up my side of the street promptly admitting where I am wrong, the work doesn’t stop.

    I’m Grateful, arrogant self centred, tenacious, versatile, honest, honourable, loyal, loving, gentle, consistent, reliable, focussed, prideful, passionate and nuts. I have a head like a disco ball, if I say I’ll do something, unless I absolutely can’t it gets done, I never give up on humanity, I love people. I want to see communities stand up, honest and open, flexing to the fullest of their capabilities and combined usefullness. happy. I laugh at bullies. I am reactionary but I have learned to hold my tongue and my trigger finger. Man made mistakes take lives from those that deserve to recover in time, there is always another way forward better even if it is around the side or back, I try to find it. the mind is like a parachute it will only work when it is opened.

    i am often afraid. So I have to share.I want to help, it’s not my business to judge, I make mistakes, I stand corrected, I accept casualties and walk with hope because I fucking LOVE. I could so easily be dead. My head is like a dangerous neighbourhood I should never be in it without an appropriate adult. left to my own devices I’ll crash the motor. Religion to me is a neccesssary device for the presence of combined faith, branded for those who want to get into heaven, I have to have faith, but I chose the path of spirituality, spirituality seems to me to be for those who’ve been to Hell. I don’t want to go back there. I am a goldfish walking through a desert. Thank you H.P for my life. I want to work and be useful, be part of the solution and not the problem…

    what a load of self satisfied smug and charmless tatter x
