Tom
Cruise Mocks His Oprah Moment
6/9/05
Tom Cruise expressed his love for new girlfriend Katie Holmes once
again last night (09JUN05), by repeating the couch-jumping antics he
displayed on Oprah Winfrey's chat show.
Last month (MAY05), Cruise, 42, stunned fans when he celebrated his new
romance with 26-year-old Holmes by leaping up and down on Winfrey's couch,
repeatedly shouting that he was "in love".
And while the incident made Cruise the target of mockery at the hands
of numerous comedians, the Mission Impossible star poked fun at himself
when he appeared on Jay Leno's Tonight Show, telling the funnyman,
"When I start to think about her, things happen. So, cease
talking."
The audience then whooped with delight as Cruise climbed up on Leno's
couch and stood on it, victoriously raising both hands into the air.
After Leno admitted Cruise's behavior was at the "silliest"
he'd ever seen, the actor added, "It's a thing that I wish for
everyone. I like hearing good news and I like hearing about people when
they're happy... She's a terrific lady and great lady.
And Holmes is "proud" of her beau's latest antics, cooing
this morning (09JUN05), "I'm so happy. I watched Leno last night and
I was, like, blushing and so happy and excited. I'm so proud. I love him.
I love his outfit, too!" |
