Tom Cruise Is A Douche

Tom Cruise visited Yahoo on Tuesday, making even more of a fool of himself, as usual. The only people who should truly be ashamed are the ones who thought this was a good idea and invited the famous alleged heterosexual.

A tipster at SFist says:

Mr. Cruise was about 45 minutes late because he flew his own plane up here, and the weather was bad. Then he RAN across the tarmac, jumped on a Ducati, raced down 101 to the campus, and then RAN across campus to the stage.

Katie was there, too, but she flew in separately. Jesus, he drags her pregnant ass everywhere, doesn’t he? He brought her on stage so he could kiss her in front of everyone because HE LOVES HER AND GOT HER PREGNANT, OK?

But Valleywag took the case, with someone liveblogging the event from the inside. They have tidbits such as:

  • CEO Terry Semel saying they didn’t pay Cruise since he’s too rich. Not as rich as Semel, I might add.
  • Cruise actually talked Creative Commons
  • Cruise and Paramount are putting exclusive content on Yahoo
  • Terry talked more than Tom. A lot more

Okay, I’m definitely coming down a little hard on this, but the idea of inviting a Hollywood actor, almost any actor, to speak to Yahoos, seems like a big waste of time. When you make that actor Tom Cruise, who has been driving everybody crazy with his antics, and combine that with his interfering with South Park lately, my patience for Cruise is wearing thin.

In more important news, last night’s South Park was a well-deserved slap in the face to certain “fruity clubs”. Comedy Central has long been too easy to censor speech, and it was nice to, for once, see something honest, biting and hilarious get out on that channel. Don’t expect it to become a trend.

Oh, and Valleywag also shows videos of Cruise’s visit, complete with the obligatory screaming women. Proving that even if he has no reason to be there, even at a major tech company, people will still go hysterical for Tom Cruise.

UPDATE: Inside Edition has a photo of Cruise cradling Holmes’ pregnant belly. See it here.

  2. Yes, it is.

    And yes, he is.

    I’m just sick of him. He makes decent movies, but off the screen he does nothing but annoy me.

  4. seriously try and search “tom cruise is a douche” on the net, there seriously is no other word to describe him,

    at first it was idiot/moron, then it was gay, then it was dick,

    but i have to agree that douche is the best adjective to apply to him…plus anyone who messes with south park is a major douche…..

    someone should make a song about him being a douche
