People can’t handle this excruciatingly intimate Tom Hiddleston vitamin commercial
Imagine this: You wake up one morning, roll out of bed, and head downstairs for breakfast, only to be greeted by none other than Tom Hiddleston. You’re stunned to see the hunky English actor hanging out in your kitchen, and then, to top it off, he casually mentions that he made you breakfast. This isn’t the premise of an epic romance movie…it’s a literal Centrum vitamin commercial that’s currently going viral.
According to BBC News, the new commercial for Centrum women’s vitamins was shared from his account on Weibo, a popular Chinese social media platform. The video has racked up 2.5 million views as of March 29th.
The minute-long video is shot from the perspective of you, the viewer, as you wake up and start your (presumably) normal day. It seems like Hiddleston visits you quite often, for reasons that aren’t exactly clear. Is he your husband, your boyfriend, your one-time Tinder date? Maybe he’s your overly familiar personal chef? The Centrum ad never explains it. All we know is that Commercial-land Hiddleston makes you an amazing salad topped with a heart-shaped egg because he decided to “pop back and make you breakfast.”
Take a look.
And the internet has thoughts (of course).

This ad is peculiar. After spending most of it working the angle of Tom-Hiddleston-as-Ultimate-Boyfriend, it suddenly bizarrely ends with him saying he's gonna be working late a lot. And now that delicious Centrum tastes like ashes. https://t.co/0gWz9UVXNP

We still have a lot of questions, but one thing’s for sure: Hiddleston should be in more commercials.
