At this point, Tom Hardy [1]'s hotness is basically a fact of life in our book; the earth is round, the sky is blue, and Tom Hardy is extremely hot. It's science.

But even we were taken aback by Tom's hotness during a recent guest appearance on BBC's CBeebies Bedtime Stories [2] show, when he proved his attractiveness has no limits. The Hollywood megastar took a break from his serious roles to read a children's story to his ridiculously adorable dog. Fair warning: no mere human can be prepared to simultaneously absorb the cuteness of a sleepy pup and the sexiness of Tom all at once. It's just too much.

Behold this glorious clip of Tom reading a bedtime story to his four-legged pal Woody, and watch the full video here [3].
