If you had to be stuck on a desert island with two celebrities, you could do a lot worse than Jessica Chastain and Tom Hiddleston.
They are two of the loveliest people I've ever come in contact with in my professional career (after I told Chastain that I had just seen her on Broadway in "The Heiress," she asked why I didn't come back stage to say hi), and they are currently in Canada filming what could be one of next year's coolest movies -- Guillermo del Toro's gothic romance "Crimson Peak." When Chastain's birthday popped up, the two knew exactly what to do -- ping pong, karaoke, and a big-ass chocolate cake! And what's more is that Chastain posted some photos to her Facebook page. Like you do.
Of the handful of photos Chastain posted, the obvious highlight is one where Chastain is singing into the microphone (love the dress, Jessica!) while Hiddleston, ever the charming scamp, is looking through the song book in the background. (What song was she singing to? Speculate now!) Not going to lie: I would probably take a bullet for that guy. The runner-up in terms of cuteness shows Chastain blowing out the candles on her birthday cake, which look sparkly and potentially possessed by some kind of del Toro-supervised black magic. The photo of Chastain playing ping pong and the one of her dancing will probably also make your heart ache.
Not entirely sure who the girl in the blue top is or the dude with the guitar, although they seem to be a jolly sort. Also worth noting: how horrible these photos are. Everyone has devilish raccoon eyes. Although that could be another side effect of everyone working on a Guillermo del Toro haunted house movie.
Things I took away from these photos:
1. Chastain and Hiddleston are even more adorable than originally imagined.
2. They are also probably BFFs, drawn together by their respective, radiant magnetism.
3. If you're going to have a birthday party, make sure to invite Tom Hiddleston and Jessica Chastain.
4. For such a scary movie, they seem to be having a lot of fun.
5. Guillermo probably wasn't invited because they were afraid he would eat all of the cake. :(
