Cruise - who attended the premiere with his new fiancee Katie Holmes - was talking to journalists in Leicester Square when he was squirted with water.


The star struggled to maintain his composure, repeatedly asking one of the Channel 4 team: "Why would you do that?"

He said: "What's so funny about that? It's ridiculous. Do you like making less of people?


Cruise and Holmes announced their engagement last week
"Don't run away. That's incredibly rude.

"I'm here giving you an interview, answering your questions and you do something nasty. You're a jerk."

The actor held the interviewer back and repeatedly called him "a jerk".

Lleena said:

bloody Katie. I wish Tom was with Katie Price (Jordan) instead, now that would be news!

Heavenly said:

NO, it was water for a T.V stunt.

charlottegelin said:

Katie Price? Peter Andre would challenge him to water pistols at dawn.

Lleena said:

See, now there's good TV!

I think the culprits should be made to watch Mission Impossible over and over, locked in a room and tied to a chair.

For a month.

His hair has diplomatic immunity.

NOBODY is allowed to touch his hair.

It travels on it's own passport.

What you talkin' about Llee!, His hair IS a diplomat


Great hair

senik said:

It's joining the European Union.

Soon we will be seeing Tonly Blair shaking hands with his hair, or stroking it.

And holding meetings with it at the Whitehouse.

Lleena said:

Llee Llee, stop this flippancyat once, child!

Don't you know peace deals have been brokered with Tom Cruise's hair


PLEASE! Show some respect peasant woman

senik said:

peace deals? I heard that too.

I heard his hair has met the pope and was the major player in the fall of the Berlin wall.

much respect.

Or rather the LACK OF! Children of the world today

If L. Ron Hubbard could hear you now, he'd flip and do the funky chicken

This blank period in our history will one day be known as the "post MJ trial" phase.

You know.....I don't blame him for blowing up. I actually think he held it together very well.
I bet you if they had of done that to Russel Crowe thed be picking up their teeth from the ground. lol

I just laughed when I saw it on tv

I thought this was a rated xxx scene of TOm cruise being the recipient of a money shot all over his face.

lol at the title

Now I hear Tom is pressing assault charges! Get a fucking clue dude! It was a harmless prank. If he had squirted a harmful substance in his face, well, then it would be assault.

I used to respect Tom, but now I think he's a spoiled little rich boy who needs to be taken down a peg or two.

JediMaster said:

Even though I think Tom Cruise is a rather overrated cunt moviestar (I hate moviestars, always stealing work away from actors...) I think he handled himself pretty good and made more of ass of the idiot squirting him...
And I think the fact that he's pressing charges is just to make a point...

Neversin.

After i saw that i was like "Hmm what would Prince have done in that situation" (The man that seems to never get embarrased ) He'd probably have stepped back abit and said something like "Damn boy is your wife not giving you any at home?" in his pimp voice

Tom Cruise is GAY

Neversin said:

I think he should have grabbed the squirting thing from him and blasted him in the face! THAT would have been an appropriate response, rather than being all pissy about it.

thy got sharon osboure a few weeks back. its for a new C4 tv show.
apparently, as repored in the papers today, she has offered to give her documents and evdience to Cruises Lawyers if they too want to sue.

whats the world coming to?
