Tom Hardy on viral MySpace photos: "I've got no shame"
- comments
Tom Hardy responds to old MySpace photos of him in his white underpants making rounds on the internet.
"Mad Max: Fury Road" star Tom Hardy has expressed that he has "no shame" on the viral photos of him which were posted online long ago on his MySpace profile.
"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," the 37-year-old star said in an interview with Sky News. "I might not be an Adonis, but I like to think of myself as an Adonis in that photo."
Although his MySpace account has long been deleted, E! Online posted the said photos in their article. In one photo, the actor was wearing a trucker hat and seemingly cupping his crotch while doing his best impression of a duck face.

According to E, the actor refers to them as his "tighty-whitey budgie smugglers." The actor added: "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."
Buzzfeed even made an article showcasing Hardy's old Myspace photos. The article titled "A Reminder That Tom Hardy Had The Best Myspace Profile Of All Time" showed Hardy's "manly Hollywood role" photos alongside his old MySpace selfies.
The article even included Hardy's MySpace "About Me" section. Here are some excerpts:
"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."
"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."
In other news, the actor has expressed interest in playing James Bond. In another report by Sky News, Hardy said that he is up to play the British spy agent.
"I think anybody would consider doing Bond, wouldn't they?" Hardy said.
Although the present James Bond actor Daniel Crag has not confirmed that he wants to step down from the role, an interview with Esquire magazine suggests that he's thinking about dropping out of the fifth installment after the upcoming movie "Spectre" as per contract.
"Spectre" is the fourth James Bond film by Craig and will be released on Nov. 6 in theaters this year.
