Tom Cruise (DVDs) has declared his total love for Katie Holmes (DVDs) in a very bonkers way on the Oprah Winfrey show. He’s so excited about the relationship that he could only show his feelings properly by jumping on the sofa and punching the ground, like people do on commercials when they’ve been given a good insurance quote.
He dropped hints that he’d propose, saying he’d never felt love like this, much to the audience’s delight.
Did we mention they both have films coming out soon?
We’d be hard-bitten, love-hating cynics to suggest that this was all
a big publicity stunt to promote War Of The Worlds (starring Tom
Cruise) and Batman Begins (starring Katie Holmes). But we are in fact
hard-bitten, love-hating, cynics, so that’s exactly what we’re
suggesting.
"I can’t be cool, I can’t be laid back" Cruise babbled to Winfrey, as he epileptically flailed across the studio floor. Subtext: "Please watch my new movie".
This coming Summer season sees a number of huge blockbuster movies being released. Star Wars is already out, then there’s Batman Begins, Mr
& Mrs Smith, War Of The Worlds, Charlie And The Chocolate Factory,
The Fantastic Four, all trying to pop their heads out a little further
than the rest.
Mr & Mrs Smith has already received a lot of publicity as the
movie that broke up a marriage, so it’s not too much of a stretch to
imagine that Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are exploiting the public need
for celebrity gossip to get better opening weekends for their movies.
Tom Cruise didn’t invent publicity stunts, though. Who can forget
Geri Halliwell and Chris Evans canoodling on the eve of a new Halliwell
single. Or Robbie Williams and Rachel Hunter being pictured kissing
just as he was getting ready to release a song.
So what next for Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes? Will they split up
straight after both films are released? Unlikely. The best bet is that
they will star in a film together in the near future. After all, that’s
what Cruise loves to do. With Nicole Kidman (DVDs), he was in Days Of Thunder,
Far And Away and Eyes Wide Shut. He managed to squeeze in Vanilla Sky
when he was with Penelope Cruz (DVDs), so we can expect the Cruise Holmes
partnership to continue for a while longer.
A remake of Nothing Like Publicity, maybe.

I think that he’s having a sort of “mid-life” crisis. He’s so ecstatic at being able to have a young, beautiful, YOUNG girl again – virgin no less – and it makes him “feel” like he’s 20 years younger himself. Hey world, “You CAN go home again” – at least back to your 20’s! It’s a schoolboy crush at 40-something.

My Respect for Tom Cruise has dropped a alot. Not that I had alot to begin with. The guy didn’t say one intelligent or even close to mature thing during the whole “interview”. He acted like a sexually confused 12 year old kid. His whole career, he has been told that he is and sex idol, and it is showing in his behaviour. He says he loves intimacy and is a big relationship guy, yet he can’t seem to hold one down. I would have respect for Tom Cruise if he stuck with at least one of his wives and raised his children the way they are suppposed to be raised. By mature adults.

This is a poorly crafted PR stunt to get the image of Mr. Cruise ingrained and the ball rolling for the $200 million film War of the Worlds this summer. Problem is Cruise hasn’t had a moneymaker since MI2, and director Spielberg has turned into a hack who has come up empty for about a decade. This is a sham of a story, come on scriptwriters!!! Whats next, Nicole and Nick?

Thomas Cruise is one sick puppy.

I was very disappointed with Tom Cruise when he mentioned that he never felt this way before in his life. I’m sorry for Nicole and their children for them to hear that. He could of least pretended a little, uh? It’s nice to grow up and think your father never really loved your mother for those almost 10 years.

His behavior does not help his declining career. Imagine being in your 40’s and still living with your sisters. He’ll keep her long enough to introduce her to the cult and then drop her for his next piece of prey. What a jerk. Get out Katie while you still have your mind.
Rudy Smith says
Way to go Tom.. we live in a cynical world where most people don’t want anyone else to be happy because they’re not happy (dating Katie Holmes, in particular).
You are a great actor and a very caring & decent man and you’re loved by many. I hope that you get exactly what you want out of life and that you and Katie are happy for the rest of your lives.
Your Friend,
Rudy
