I saw him in England where he was really furious and upset with those guys who through water on him. He looked INSANE when he was talking to them and threatening them.
I mean, he's suppose to be a big star and he was totally losing it over some bottled water!
Was this the guy he was calling "jerk"? I saw something last night on one of the news channels (may have been Brit Hume, but I thought I was cutting the grass from 6 - 7) where Tom Cruise appeared to be calling a TV news reporter a jerk. I missed what it was about.
??? What was this?
I don't know what's up with Tom Cruise, but I would be pretty furious too if some kooks sprayed me in the face with a watergun during an interview.
I mean, he's suppose to be a big star and he was totally losing it over some bottled water!
Did you actually see what happened? It wasn't some "bottled water." There were 4 men who were working for one of those TV "ambush" shows, like "Punked." They were set up to look like they were there at the rope line to get an interview, and he was giving them one. Suddenly, the "microphone" began to spray him in the face with water.
At no time did he threaten them, and in fact when they began to back away to run, having "gotten him," Cruise asked them why they would do such a thing. He did say that the "interviewer" was "a jerk" a few times. But he never got abusive or really even raised his voice. He was civil and never lost his cool.
I'm really not a fan of Tom Cruise, but I am pretty sure that if something like that were to happen to me that I wouldn't have reacted as well as he did. I gained some respect for the guy.
