The spoon prank is almost as good as that water bottle/coin prank, but unfortunately nobody ends up soaking wet at the end.
Still, we can imagine this situation was incredibly perplexing for Tom Hardy’s stunt double.
On the set of Tom’s FX show Taboo, the star used some downtime to show off his mighty strength.

How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
As you can see in the below video (and as is usually the case in life), the whole thing was rigged from the get-go. Rigged!
Watch below, then pick your most gullible friend and have at it:
Donston
I do appreciate that he never buckled under the pressure to identify as bisexual.
Captain Obvious
Bisexual? He had a Myspace account. He’s gay.
Donston
I don’t get the joke. Everyone who cared about social media had a MySpace before Facebook and Twitter took over.
Captain Obvious
Myspace died almost as soon as Facebook came into existence and it became a closeted gay paradise only next to using it for music. No one else was using it anymore so please don’t give me that. I was closeted at that time and was using it for the same thing every other closeted gay guy was. It was better than gaydar and Grindr.
It’s not a joke. Myspace got picked up by closeted guys because no one we knew was on it and we could be “out” on Myspace to meet other guys. I dunno how any gay men don’t know this but if you were out I guess you didn’t need it.
Let me assure you no one was using Myspace when Tom Hardy’s “secret account” was outed in the press.

So, because you were a closet case using it for that purpose, every man who had a myspace account at the time must have been using it the same way you were. Huh!
Donston
Yeah, that’s quite a stretch and exposes you and your mindset more than it does Tom.

Tom would be in a tricky situation if he ever pulled my head toward his crotch like that.
Seeing him at play is another great reason to love the guy.
Taboo is a wonderfully, dark, daring, mysterious program. The only problem is they offer just peeks at his butt. Big teasers. The show starts with a notice of Nudity. Still waiting for the nekkid bits to start.

Straight people are so weird.
Jack Meoff
Guys you also need to take into consideration his wife and family. Yes he has been quite willing to admit that he has been with men in the past but he is married now and any talk about his sexuality also affects his wife and kids so I would suggest that his reluctance to talk about it as freely these days would be out of respect for them. I think the media and gay community should also respect that.
Donston
He talked about these things before he got married. And he was the one that brought up his past sexual encounters with men and was willing to go into further detail. So, it’s no one’s fault but his. Ultimately, everyone seems over it.
He gave as many details as was needed. He “experimented” with men, hooking up with guys allowed him to engage his femininity and he liked attention from gay men. He was another one of those “I enjoy different people’s energy” type of dudes. And that’s not bisexual. He never said he was sexually attracted to men or was interested in relationships with men. It’s typical narcissistic pretty white boy/actor stuff. And we don’t need more guys using bisexuality as a way to shield their twisted and longing egos, their perversions and/or their inability to self-accept. So, I’m glad he kept it real and kept it moving.

I don’t understand people’s preoccupation with his or anyone else’s sexuality. I don’t care who he sleeps with~ he is a stunning actor ! I LOVE his work. He is an original
Donston
Like I said, he put the info out there. No one was “preoccupied” until he talked about it. I just said I appreciated that we still have people willing to admit that they have experimented or have certain kinks without feeling the need to deviate from identifying as their inherent orientation. I guess my point is unless you have real sexual attraction to men and women and see men and women as legit romantic partners I see no point in identifying as bisexual.
