It is perfectly acceptable in the tabloid world to link two people together as dating even if they have barely been in the same room together. In fact, I think that is the only actual requirement. At one point in time, they have needed to be a in a room together so they could canoodle and have a bunch of fake quotes and move on. However, it also has to be plausible. If Tom Hanks was single, he would not go out with Paris Hilton. No one should ever believe otherwise. He is more of a Hilary Swank kind of person and if he was going younger, then probably Ginnifer Goodwin maybe. You could see those pairings. Well Life And Style Magazine said this week that Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz are dating. They have been in the same room together so that works. They have filmed movies together, so even better. But, and this is a very big but, it makes no sense. Cameron would never date Tom in a million years. This is a woman who is on record as saying she will travel for c**k. She obviously enjoys a little fun now and then, and I don't think she is going to get what she needs or wants from Tom. She is not going to let someone control her. She is not going to stop smoking pot. If you are going to do a Tom Cruise is dating someone story, make it someone believable. It needs to be a C+ lister. I'm thinking television show. A couple of the cast members from 90210 come to mind. I could see him trying to convince Leighton Meester. It has to be someone who is not too famous because he needs to be in charge of their career. It is not going to be someone like Amanda Seyfried, because she is on a roll and not going to listen to him.
Wow. First you call bullshit on Charlize Theron and the Modern Family guy, now this.
ReplyDeleteI just hope he picks someone already in CO$, why damage an otherwise perfectly good human being.
ReplyDeleteI seriously doubt Ginnifer Goodwin would give Li'l Tommy the time of day.
ReplyDeleteSe's shorter than him & he seems to like taller women & then tell them to not wear heels.
She's also very Jewish & is a well known member of the National Council of Synagogue Youth, so she ain't converting to $cientology!
He should just date...
ReplyDeleteCammy likes sex to much to end up with Tommy Girl. Could you imagine the weeks and months of auditing it would take to work through all her fun timez? Sheesh!
ReplyDeleteThey do look pretty together :)
OMG I would kill to smoke some weed with Cameron Diaz! Didn't she go to high school with Snoop Dogg?
ReplyDeleteSomeone needs to do a show like that dinner conversation one with the Swingers guy except just random celebrities hang out and smoke pot. WOULD BUY THE DVD~!
@Ingrid, That was one of the best shoes ever! Dinner for Five I believe? The guests had such great, funny stories.
Delete*shows*
DeleteDinner for Five was great! Id watch celebs getting stoned as well, greatest show idea.
DeleteYes! She's said that she thinks she used to BUY her weed from Snoop! Bwahaha!
ReplyDeleteTotally lame but I will say, Cameron surprised me in Knight and Day. I don't know how I ended up watching that movie but she made Tom seem almost likable and that was a surprise. But I saw it as she takes him so non-seriously that she was there for the laughs.
ReplyDeleteCan't see it either but very interesting choice with Leighton Meester, I could see that.
ReplyDelete@Ingrid - I WOULD SO WATCH THAT SHOW! Do you remember that stupid website where you paid money by the hour to talk to your favorite "celebrities" on the phone? I want a version of that, except to hang out and smoke pot.
ReplyDeleteThe thing is everyone knows now that it a bearding position so I can't imagine that anyone with an upward career would want to risk it.
ReplyDeleteoh Tommy, just be alone already. Everyone knows you are faking it.
ReplyDeleteGodamn every post today is about pot and I'm on vacation so I'd like it even more. But I'd have to fire myself if I got drug tested and that would suck. However, the day I switch jobs my welcome gift will be a bong on my desk. Can't wait for that. Cruise's PR is racking up the fails. It's all as unbelievable as Scientology. Fitting.
ReplyDeleteTom. Tom. Tom. Come out of the closet. Be out and proud.
ReplyDeleteSomeone in Co$ needs to go over to Japan and just buy him one of those uber-realistic androids already. Use special effects for the limited interviews, and just park her in the limo for events.
ReplyDeleteWatch "Weekend at Bernie's" for more tips.
I always thought it would be hilarious to have a dinner party-type show where there are big actors and also normal people who have no idea who they are and don't give a fuck. I was inspired by my father-in-law who does a lot of work in Africa. He was invited to a party and he said some guy named "Bono" was gonna be there. He pronounced it "Boe-noe" and I thought that was the awesomest thing ever. He had no idea who he was, nor did he care, he had just heard that the guy did a lot of work for Africa & AIDS charities and he wanted to talk to him about that.
ReplyDeleteI just wanted to add that my FIL is only in his early 70s and is a well-educated, successful business man who travels the world, not some ancient backwoods weirdo who doesn't have a TV. He just doesn't care about stuff like that. I'd love to see the reaction of A-listers around a guy like that.
An old episode of Top Gear had both of them, sitting next to each other on a couch and being interviewed. There was NO chemistry between them at all.
ReplyDeletechopchop, I know someone like your FIL -- she is a friend of mine who is a retired scientist (was a prominent AIDS researcher) and she knows NOTHING about popular culture. Sometimes I think it would be sort of refreshing to have no idea who Miley Cyrus, Britney Spears, Honey Boo Boo, etc. are, but I'm way too addicted to reading this site and watching "The Soup."
ReplyDeleteIt's been mentioned in other Cruise threads, but Tony Ortega (former Village Voice editor who wrote a Scientology blog) has said that none of his ex-Scientologist sources believe Tommy is gay. And one of his sources is the guy who audited Tom for years. I think Tom may just not be into sex, period.
Tom Hanks/Ginnifer Goodwin that's a blind item reveal from somewhere...
ReplyDelete@125records, I kind of like your theory. I think Tommy is either asexual, or he has suppressed that part of himself so deeply that there's no coming back...
ReplyDeleteHe seems like a ridiculously fastidious person. Mix that with fanatical religious beliefs and I think it's highly plausible that you could get a person who is essentially completely put off by sexual contact.
ReplyDeleteI think Tommy is like Sheldon on BBT, sexually speaking.
ReplyDeleteWell, it was nice of Cammie to wear lower heeled shoes for that photo op.
ReplyDeleteThe more I hear about Tommy the more convinced I am as well that he isn't gay. He just has a very low libido..Too bad. Sex is one of the most wonderful experiences with the right group..I mean person.
ReplyDeleteI remember back in the day, years ago, when Cam was ALL OVER Tom and it was embarrassing. She sat on his lap at (I think) the MTV movie awards. It was right after the Nicole split if I remember right. It was so weird and pathetic it's the only reason why I remember it to this day. I think this was around the time he made Vanilla Sky. It was like she was practically BEGGING to be his beard. Maybe at that time she was and her real personality may be why it didn't pan out.
ReplyDeletedoes anyone else remember the soccer pictures of the gmd, diaz and katie holmes?
ReplyDeletehttp://www.laineygossip.com/Articles/Category/1045/Details/15367/Katie-Holmes-drinks-beer-seems-tipsy-at-soccer-game-with-Tom-Cruise-and-Cameron-Diaz
some of my favorite photo assumptions of all time. i think the gmd would kill diaz' good time vibe
yes sounds like a hanks/goodwin reveal wasn't there rumours they were having a fling at some point ?
ReplyDeleteI am sorry, but you just dissed Leighton Meester. Enty, you are dead to me.
ReplyDeleteNever thought I had reason to respect Cameron before but in spite of her questionable taste in men, I do like how badass (and in control) she comes across.
ReplyDeleteAmanda S. got a bad burn from Ryan Phillipe. Where she learned sad but true lesson from Reese: whatever you think about me, Ryan is a lying cheating skank who isn't going to change. Ask Abbie Cornish. So, co-sign Amanda wants control of the dog from now on, not going to be playing beard under mind control contract. She wants the true love. Hope she finds it.
ReplyDeleteCameron and Tom seem to actually be pretty close friends. They've done Knight and Day adn Vanilla Sky together and she's cameo'd in Minority Report and I think some of his other movies.
ReplyDeleteThe thing with Tom is this - He's a freak. But he's actually probably a pretty nice guy too. So if his freak thing pisses you off, you probably won't like him, but if you don't mind the fact that he's a freak, you'd probably like him a lot.
Cameron Diaz is not a woman who has a problem with freak.
@chopchop - I bet a number of celebrities would find it refreshing. Also, I miss your old avitar.
ReplyDeleteNice catch about Tom Hanks and Ginnifer Goodwin! He was the executive producer for Big Love...hmmmm
ReplyDeleteThere's someone out there that will date him, trust. I vote Kristin Stewart.
ReplyDeleteThey make a nice couple.
ReplyDeleteKristen & Tom cannot take place until Robsten finish promoting the 18th sequel of Breaking Twihard's Last Piggybank/Hearts aka Twilight Ka-ching it isn't over until no one will pay to see it or dvd it. Reminds me of the late Aaron Spelling's most highly rated original "Charlie's Angels" episode, titled "Angels In Chains". When asked how many times it would appear in re-runs, he responded, constantly, as long as the people in TV land want to see it. Over and over, highest rated episode we ever ran, highest rated re-run. why quit as long as running it makes money? If you have never seen the original "Charlie's Angels", that is the episode to watch.
