Is there anything less useful on Planet Earth than Tom Cruise? Even plastic bags will eventually biodegrade, but he just goes on, expressing the opinions he's been told to have by Scientology cult leaders, and pretending he is able to form a complete thought without coaching.

@Guy-Fawkes:
Yes, there is:

John Travolta and Kirstie Alley and Anne Archer and Beck and Karen Black and Nancy Cartwright and Jeff Conaway and Jenna Elfman and Doug E. Fresh and Paul Haggis and Isaac Hayes and Katie Holmes and Jason Lee and Juliette Lewis and Christopher and Danny Masterson and Judy Norton and Lisa Marie Presley and Priscilla Presley and Kelly Preston and Leah Remini and Greta Van Susteren (yeah, that bitch is one, too).

on a side note, how dreary is that house? it's like the lobby of a Hyatt in Aspen.

Is there a complete version of the interview somewhere (maybe YouTube)? He's so robotic... I need to see more.

I haven't seen her in a while, she's looking horrible.

@hughman: Totally generic "lodge". And such low ceilings!

"Remember, I'm the guy who danced in my underwear." We thought that was a role in a movie. Hope he didn't add "Remember, Oprah, I'm the guy who kidnapped my retard brother."

boring.........less is more when it comes to this guy and shame on Oprah.

He's really blushing. I'd have thought LRH would have written instructions on how to avoid feelings of embarrassment during interviews with Earthlings.

Interesting how he turns it around and blames her for "egging him on".

I hate the fact that Tom Cruise is one of my favorite actors. I can't help it, his batting average for being in good movies is too damn high. Therefore I had to totally seperate the movies he does from the man himself, but that's getting harder and harder.

Wow, he just looks so unhappy. If you watch his face between the plastered-on smiles, he's just looking lonely and desperate. I almost feel sorry for him, but not.

He's so artificial, I bet the snow outside isn't even real.

What a sad, pathetic ending to a career that could have been something had it not been tainted by the 'star's' predilection to whore himself off to the cult of $cientology.

Teeny Tom, still dyslexic and unable to read his scripts to this very day, laughably brings up his 25-year-old premier movie as if it is in the same class as "War and Peace."

He exhibits the same demented, misguided LRH-inspired (no - LRH-INSTRUCTED) commands to repeat, repeat, repeat the $cientology-line in defense against the TRUTH...even tho his Messiah has been dead and gone and forgotten since 1986.

Anyone else notice "Valkyrie" has been shunted off into oblivia ?

Teeny Tom's ruse is at an end.

I sure hope Katie can escape.

Forget Soorie - she's a little shovel-faced Korean adoptee that is bound to go back to Pyong-Yang for re-settlement anyway.

That was ridiculous. Tom's right. Oprah was egging him on. Watching her try to distance herself from that incident and what it represents made me like her even less than I already do. And even though he's a dangerous propagandist for an anti medical cult, it actually made me like Cruise a tiiiiny bit more. Shame on you Oprah. You have zero credibility. Tom at least has his derangement and mania to hide behind. You're just a calculating, cowardly hypocrite. A self interested non entity, who succeeds commercially exactly because she is middle of the road and mediocre and safe. You set the standard for people who have none.

@FlangeSqueal: If I had to draw a line anywhere between good clean defamer fun and not so fun, I would draw it at little tykes who are not public figures by choice, like Suri or Jayden James. When say a Rumer Willis or a Brooke Hogan voluntarily crosses that line, then it's open season, baby.

Egging him on looked like laughing nervously and wishing she could yell "cut" without causing an incident.

he is so gay.

@Guy-Fawkes: Piers, you on a roll today! From an Indian oil titan and his homeless-shunning $2 billion home over on Gizmodo to Tom Cruise's inane verbal forays here on Defamer. Guy-Fawkes will eviscerate the subject of every blog post he deems substandard.

@Jamo: Rather, yesterday.

I'm probably in the minority here, but I thought he gave a decent interview. If anything, the Big O seemed to be stilted.

I'd like to see Tom Cruise take responsibility for something, instead of giving lame justifications.

He came across more phony and creepy than ever. When he says "it came out wrong," what he really means is that he feels the same way, but is trying to back-pedal to regain his popularity.
