Top 10 Moments That Made Us Love Chris Hemsworth
#10: Replying to Fans on the Internet
In this edition of GQ’s “Actually Me,” the “Thor” actor went undercover to answer some of the internet’s most pressing questions. Fans wanted to learn about whether he or Chris Evans would win in an arm wrestle, how he landed the part of Thor, and about his fitness routine. It’s an entertaining, amusing, and educational segment sprinkled with some sibling rivalry and some witty remarks. He also talks about how he got into acting, updates his IMDb page, and shares his thoughts on Thor being an “Australien.” If you want to learn more about the Aussie star, this is a great place to begin. He’s delightful, funny, and incredibly charming.
#9: Showing Some Love for Down Under on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show”
He might be a major international star, but first and foremost, he’s a proud Australian. Hemsworth uses his platform to shine a light on his home country, sharing its beauty or highlighting important causes. However, he’s not the only celeb from Down Under to make it big in Hollywood. So Ellen DeGeneres once pitted him against Margot Robbie to prove who’s the best Australian. In the segment, she throws them random questions related to the country while the pair tries to hit a buzzer dressed as boxing kangaroos. It gets hilariously competitive, especially as the questions become increasingly bizarre and occasionally personal. Hemsworth wins and takes home a jar of Vegemite, which seems like a fitting reward for being the Best Aussie.
#8: Chris Hemsworth vs. James Corden in the “Battle of the Waiters”
When “The Late Late Show” came to London, James Corden met Hemsworth at London’s prestigious The Northall restaurant. The challenge was to see who had the chops to make it in the world of hospitality and fine dining. While Corden promises to be “Louis Charmstrong,” (Loo-wee) it’s Hemsworth who sweeps the patrons off their feet, and not just because of his good looks. Things get hysterically petty as both try to outshine each other with every customer. The hilarity continues with antics involving wine, pepper grinders, and a specials board. Although chef André chooses a winner, something tells us neither will be asked back for another day of work. Still, we wouldn’t say no to having Hemsworth as our waiter.
#7: His Relationship with His Brothers
Top 10 Moments That Made Us Love Chris Evans
As anyone who has brothers will know, sparring is practically a love language, and the Hemsworth boys are no different. Over the years, they’ve shared plenty of anecdotes, good-natured jibes, and other hilarious stories about growing up together. However, it’s also very clear that there’s a lot of love there, and they’re very supportive of each other — unless there’s a magazine cover involved! Anytime they talk about their relationship, it makes us want a movie starring all three together. Perhaps an action-comedy? It’s never too late! Another brotherly love worth mentioning is Hemsworth’s relationship with his on-screen bro, Tom Hiddleston. They might have a complicated relationship in the MCU movies, but their chemistry behind the scenes is super cute.
#6: Whenever He Surprises His Fans
Top 10 Moments That Made Us Love Jacob Elordi
He's handsome, he's talented, and it turns out he's also a total sweetheart. Hemsworth has been known to be incredibly generous to his fans and even surprise them on occasion. He turned up at a screening of "Thor: Ragnarok" with Tessa Thompson and reportedly shocked KFC employees at a drive-thru in New South Wales, Australia. He also showed up at a Brisbane children's hospital joined by Tom Hiddleston, fully-costumed as Loki. However, one of his funniest fan interactions was orchestrated by Ellen DeGeneres on her show. She asked the "Ghostbusters" actor to surprise various staff members to celebrate National Administrative Professionals Day. It gets more hilariously intimate and steamy than any of us could've anticipated, but we’re fully here for it!
#5: Anytime He Talks About His Kids
A proud family man, Hemsworth always has adorable photos or stories about his children at the ready. His social media is sprinkled with the sweetest snaps of his daughter and twin sons. He’s also been seen performing dad duties, like helping out at their school’s cafeteria. But he’s no stranger to roasting his kids a little on TV, either. He’s shared hilarious anecdotes about his daughter’s bilingualism and how he once snuck her onto the Tower of Terror ride and ultimately regretted it. He’s also shown footage of one of his boys scaling their fridge to reach the hidden treats on top. Needless to say, he comes across as a hands-on parent, and the Hemsworth family sounds absolutely precious.
#4: When He Hosted “Saturday Night Live,” Twice
Top 10 Moments That Made Us Love Jennifer Aniston
In March 2015, the “Avengers” star made his way to 30 Rock for his “SNL” debut. And he didn’t disappoint. The actor was charismatic and very funny, properly throwing himself into the world of live sketch comedy. Of course, he couldn’t miss the chance to appear in at least one “Avengers” themed segment, either. And about nine months later, Hemsworth came back to Studio 8H, giving us this side-splittingly hilarious “Brunch” sketch . He plays Claire, a huge Chris Hemsworth fan, or, is it just Hemsworth in disguise? The actor proved that he knew how to have a laugh, even if it was at his own expense. And it’s those kinds of hosts that create the most memorable “SNL” episodes.
#3: Teasing His Avengers Co-stars
While the Avengers make a dynamic on-screen team, their behind-the-scenes chemistry is even more compelling, especially when those zingers start flying. Some of our favorites include Chris Hemsworth playing with MCU action figures, messing with Tom Holland during an interview, and explaining why Thor wasn't in "Civil War."However, his “Playground Insults” with Scarlett Johansson proved that you can't help but love him, even when he's throwing out disses. But don't worry, Hemsworth may know how to dish it, but his co-stars make sure he knows how to take it as well. Considering how well the MCU cast seems to get along, it's always hilarious to see this good-natured mean streak strike.
#2: Crashing a Live Weather Report on “Weekend Today”
It was just your average day at Australia’s “Weekend Today” show, or at least that’s what the hosts thought. As they threw to reporter Lauren Phillips, she began her segment. But it wasn’t long before she was joined by none other than Chris Hemsworth. And the looks on the anchors’ faces say it all. The God of Thunder proceeds to do the weather report, with a few extra adlibs. And then Phillips interviews him. The whole clip is a joy, and proves that Chris Hemsworth can make anything, even the weather, compelling. If he’s ever looking for on-screen work in Australia, it sounds like the folks over at “Weekend Today” would be more than happy to have him. Before we unveil our top pick, here are a few honorable mentions. “Water War” on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” This Game Is Drenched in Fun & Hemsworth Makes It Extra Memorable “Team Thor” Would You Want the God of Thunder as a Roomie? “First Impressions” From Dolphins to Fellow Celebs, His Skills Certainly Impress Us Biceps Challenge Hemsworth Muscles His Way Through the Game His Appearance on “Dancing with the Stars” Australia As Much as We Love Seeing This, & Boy Do We, Maybe He Should Stick To Avenging
#1: “Avengers End Games”
Top 10 Times the Avengers Cast Roasted Each Other
“The Avengers” cast are always hysterical together, but they really outdo themselves when it comes to games. The back-and-forth between Hemsworth and Scarlett Johansson during a round of “Family Feud” springs to mind. However, the most memorable occurrence was during the “Endgames,” where Hemsworth wins at a Pictionary style game literally just by being in the room. Then during a round of “Most Likely To,” he exposes Ruffalo for never remembering his lines. Meanwhile, he’s nominated as most likely to fall for a pyramid scheme. Later, Hemsworth proves that he’s a talented cupcake decorator, creating a sweet Thor while feasting on fondant. It’s obvious that he’s there for a good time and, as always, we’re having a great time watching him.
