Tom Hiddleston

Tom Hiddleston shares your appreciation of chocolate, especially if it’s from his homeland. When filming abroad, he kept a cabinet filled with British chocolate biscuits. He explained, “I was sent a box of dark chocolate HobNobs when I was doing The Avengers. There was a little cupboard in my trailer with all of these biscuits… I had nothing but Loki’s crazy costume and horned helmet, and a whole cupboard full of dark chocolate HobNobs.”

Ariana Grande

In 2013, Ariana Grande tweeted something that sounds like it came straight from Elle Woods: “Did you know that eating chocolate stimulates your brain to release more endorphins which are what make you feel happy? Have some today.” I mean, if she insists!
