You probably know by now that Tom Hiddleston was named ELLE Man of The Year at the ELLE Style Awards. A fitting tribute to an actor, writer and ELLE cover star.

However, the question people are asking is: why does Tom Hiddleston have a plaster on his head? So here are some options

a) We beat Tom around the head with a sterling silver candlestick to make him say nice things about ELLE?
