An image of Tom Cruise laughing like a maniac is being used to sell a brand of hallucinogenic marijuana in Californian cannabis clubs. It has even been named in his honour.

Somewhat ironically though, the news hasn’t brought a smile to Tom Cruise’s face, and his lawyers are believed to be looking into the matter. Who would have thought Tom Cruise x Weed = anything other than the most self-obsessed giggle fit in history?

According to the NY Daily News’ Rush & Molly column, the product is being marketed as ‘Tom Cruise Purple’, and one 'weed devotee' told them:

"I heard it's the kind of pot that makes you hallucinate."

Rumour has it there’s also a strain available called ‘Justin Timberlake Blue’, which makes you feel as if you are the sexiest, most talented person in the room, even if all else (i.e. face) suggests otherwise – this side of the shore it is known as ‘Jonny Borrell Blue’.

Then we have the Robbie Williams strain, which promises the greatest high of your life on the packaging, but in reality it leaves you with nothing more than the empty feeling you have given two hours of your life for absolutely nothing in return.

‘The Britney Spears Pink’ however, is a fucking mental high.

The column quotes one Cruise friend as finding the whole thing "outrageous”.

If by any chance you have been living with your head up your own or someone else’s asshole for the past few years, then you may be surprised to learn that Tom Cruise is a Scientologist, and quite a prominent one at that. And Scientologists are famed for opposing any kind of use of psychotropic drugs, as well as suing the knickers off any one who so much as farts in their general direction.

If you live in California and want to have one last laugh with Tom Cruise, then hurry up and buy, because it’s the best chance you’re ever gonna get to laugh ‘with’ him again.
