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.

Have you seen Katie lately? Her "bump" somehow got smaller in recent pictures......and Tom has been riding her around town on his motorcycle.

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.

Doesn't surprise me. When I saw the episode, I figured that he and/or the scientologists would threaten lawsuits. Freak!

Too bad you won't get to see it over there... it's hilarious!

I agree with you about Cruise... he makes me want to vomit, he's so arrogant!

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.

Preach it from the rooftops. I friggin' hate him too. Btw, I saw that South Park Episode and was wondering just what the hell R. Kelly has to do with being in the closet. What is up with that?

Well, remember Scientologists are famous for being sue happy too, so that could have something to do with their thinking.

if I recorded it, But I sure remember it cause the credits show that the show was completely created by 2 individuals: John Doe & Jane Doe (All the credits state they did EVERYTHING for this episode, Man...Those Doe's are some very busy folk.)

Brian "Come out of the closet Tom..Before John Travolta & R.Kelly come into the closet" j.

Btw, If I had to pick about Tom I would say he's definitely a bottom.

OK. That was more then I needed to see.... hahahahaha....

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?
