I have been waiting forever for this episode and couldn't wait until Friday to finally see it and now this!

Cruise axe for South Park

By SARA NATHAN
and EMMA COX

NERVOUS TV bosses have axed an episode of South Park which OUTS a fictional Tom Cruise character as gay — because they are scared the real actor will SUE.
The wacky cartoon shows Hollywood star Cruise refusing to come out of a closet in a reference to rumours about his sexuality.

His ex-wife Nicole Kidman and fellow Scientologist John Travolta are portrayed as trying to coax him out.

Nicole, 38, tells him: “Don’t you think this has gone on long enough?

“It’s time for you to come out of the closet. You’re not fooling anyone.”

The episode, called Trapped in the Closet, also features Scientology founder L Ron Hubbard criticising Cruise’s acting skills.

The episode is entirely fictional and there is no suggestion that the events are true.

It was shown in America last year but Cruise, 43, is believed to have threatened legal action if it is shown again.

So it will not be screened on the Paramount channel on Friday as planned. An insider said: “Tom is famously very litigious and will go to great lengths to protect his reputation.

I can imagine what he is riding, and I suspect it is on the alarming side of LARGE.

What I don't get, and maybe someone can enlighten me, but where did everyone get this notion that he's gay? Where did this stem from? I missed something along THIS path...

I'm not a fan of his per say, but I like his movies. All I know is he's pretty much never been single and has either been married to Nicole, or been hooked up with various chicks. So where does this come from?

Oh I dont know. Maybe it's one of those urban legends maybe not. I guess whether he is or isnt isnt gonna toot my horn too much, no pun intended...

his supposed gayness extends from the movie "Interview with a Vampire" (Where he kisses Brad Pitt, Deb saw this movie moreso than I did, So I am going by her words)...Never heard anything about him being gay before that movie.

Not a fan of his movies, even less a fan of his religious (Brainwashed) beliefs.

I think he's gay because he does such a horrible job pretending he's not, LOL! "He's been sighted at gaybars on several occasions", and sure lots of strait people go, but not that much, LOL! Then there's Kidman, a big scam it was. They adopt some kids, then give "conflicting stories on why they don't have their own". Then their "non public chemistry" relationship dissolves and as a send off "Kidman reportedly has a miscarriage" to give people the impression that he has sex with women. Now he's oh so insanely in love with Holmes, so much in love that no one in reality shows it like that (obviously over compensating for his poor acting job with Kidman). Now Holmes is having a baby, just like the scientoligist masters instructed him to in order to further his career. He may as well wear a shirt that say "OMG! I am so totally not gay!". Further more my Gaydar has never been wrong. That Drake kid from Nickelodeon? Oh yeah, that's what I'm thinkin. It's a real shame that society nails people in the closet. One thing's for sure if my kids are gay times had better be changing by then, or else Mama is gonna crack some skulls!

I can't stand Tom Cruise because my childhood was spent being mortally bored by his films. When I was like 6 I had to sit through "Rain Man" half way through I wanted to climb up the balcony and jump off. All this fruity Scientolgy stuff makes me all the more irritated with him. I very much enjoyed BTFLCHLD's link! Here's some from a place called Newgrounds!

This is a fun one about the time he got squirted with the microphone!

I was wondering when I'd hear about him having a cow about that episode. He is famously litigious, I had my doubts that he would let that one go. For sure. I don't hate him, though, of course. Poor cute gay crazy scientologist man.

God, even Matt Damon and Alec Baldwin had a sense of humour about Team America and they were made to look like idiots in that movie...

Oh, please, there's no way you'll never see that episode. Someone will have it, and they will give it to you. Heck, Brian J. probably already has it.

I would feel sorry for you. And for me, I haven't seen it either.
