Here are some of the photos of Benedict Cumberbatch at last night’s world premiere of The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies. The premiere was held in London, obviously. Quick question: why does our Otter King associate The Hobbit with velvet? Last year around this time, Bendy wore back-to-back velvet ensembles to two premieres for The Desolation of Smaug. And now he’s bringing back #AllTheVelvet. I just think it’s Hobbit-specific though. Sigh… I do like him in velvet. I imagine the velvet feels like an otter pelt.
And of course all of the devoted Cumberloonies know that Sophie Hunter was there, at the premiere, although she did not walk the red carpet beside Benedict. She did walk the carpet… sort of. I mean, she was technically on the carpet as she was being whisked away. She probably waited for her lover inside the theater. Anyway, you can see a photo of her here at The Mail – some people think she looks pregnant. Sophie is: A) knocked up, B) wearing one of the most unflattering dresses ever, C) in need a much better stylist, D) one of those hipster-types that loves to “dress pregnant” even when they aren’t, E) a Jolie-esque lover of all things sack or F) All of the above. For what it’s worth, Showbiz Spy says she’s knocked up and about two months along. Their sources also say that Bendy & Sophie will get married before she gives birth. Huh.
Also: there’s this story going around. Apparently, Sophie is “reportedly keen to limit the number of press events she attends, as she has no desire to be a public figure.” Bulls—t. I’m not saying she’s a Hilaria Baldwin or anything, but Sophie isn’t some wilting wallflower.
