Pictured, Harpo Productions released the first promotional image from Oprah Winfrey's much-publicized, two-part interview with Tom Cruise. Shot near the actor's vacation home in Telluride, it shows the two superstars riding a V.I.P. chairlift to the top of Cruise's private peak. (Oprah expressed concern that the only thing supporting her was a "thin metal bar," at which point Cruise wrapped an arm firmly around the talk show host and whispered, "Don't you worry. I got you. I got you tight." That in turn elicited an inexplicable laughing fit from Cruise, leading Winfrey, now afraid for her life, to reluctantly join in.) Three-quarters of the way up Mt. Hubbard, Cruise signaled to the operator, and the lift came to an abrupt stop; the Valkyrie star then eased himself onto his feet, and, a stunned Winfrey looking on, proceeded to take several flying leaps off the seat, pumping his fist into the frigid Colorado air as he shouted, "This is how I still feel about Kate, Oprah! I'm jumping 2400 feet high! That's how in love with this girl, the mother of my child and wife, now and forever, I truly am!"

The first part of the special airs May 2.

Cruise has apparently been taking greeting etiquette lessons from Busey.

Awkward AND Scary! How DO they do it?

Nice try, but Mount Hubbard is in Canada, although she is a fourteener as the mountain folk say.

Honestly, is there anything more that we need to know about what these people want us to believe about them?

@PaisleyPajamas: But the Americans are so derivative, they probably just bought it and moved it down there, alongside London Bridge.

How can Oprah keep a straight face when Cruise breaks out into his usual donkey-braying?

There's an extremely angry, Suppressive Person behind that crazed grin.

And then, like a Paraguayan rugby team, Oprah was then forced to eat Tom Cruise in order to survive.

BOTH of them are sporting new Chiclet teeth...who do they think they're kidding ?

Oh yeah - Okrah has some segment of the daytime TV audience thinking that Phil guy is some sort of a doctor instead of just a pushy, verbose shillmeister that specializes in being judgemental...........and Teeny Tom, who STILL is dyslexic and CAN'T READ TO THIS DAY claims that the Cult of $cientology has cured him of his dumbness AND made him str8.

BWAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !
