For those tired with Tom Cruise..

I thought that was appalling.
To be fair to Cruise, he's always great at premieres, spending ages talking to the press and public alike. That prank was just uncalled for.

Nothing makes me more irate than those jerky TV shows where grown men do their best to act with less maturity than a playgroup of toddlers. There was a similar one in Britain not too long ago - some guy going around and harassing celebrities like Cruise with dumb-ass questions. Shame on the TV channels for hiring these dweebs.

Dennis Pennis...

He was an ass to most celebs although I do remember a couple of funny moments.. He asked a well known politician a question and instead of putting the microphone to his mouth he put it to his ass when he spoke.. The other one I remember was him running behind Barry Manilow in Hyde Park carrying a white sheet chanting "Barry, you dropped your handkerchief!"

As for the Cruise thing, it was totally immature and goes to show how easy it is to attack a celebrity. Cruise is known for taking literally hours to talk to fans in Leicester Square and it would be unfortunate if he stopped doing it now, although I don't think this show of "Jackass" culture will stop him in the future.. He does give up a lot of time for the UK fans.

Oh c'mon, it isn't that bad. It's not like he was hurt or anything.

It was harmless in a way. BUT Cruise didn't have to talk to those guys. He was doing them a favour by answering their questions.
I don't like Cruise at all, but I still think it was out of order.
Plus, I hate that kind of humour that attempts to get laughs by embarrassing or humiliating people. I think it's kind of pathetic. At least with Jackass, they're taking the piss out of themselves.

I totally agree, it was a really stupid gesture. He's great with the public at premieres. Even I can see that.

yeah even tho i don't really like tom, this was sucha low blow, you could tell tom was pissed when he called the guy a jerk, but i was impressed w/ how he was able to keep his composure, the reporter is lucky he only got arrested, if they did that to russell crowe, they woulda prolly been beaten down w/ a cell phone ~
